professor_n in_o wittenberg_n and_o the_o other_o in_o geneva_n i_o say_v no_o more_o but_o only_o wish_v that_o they_o who_o approve_v the_o faith_n that_o be_v teach_v in_o the_o french_a church_n

of_o all_o necessary_a grace_n yet_o god_n distribute_v these_o grace_n in_o such_o a_o different_a manner_n and_o measure_n that_o in_o several_a man_n some_o be_v eminent_a and_o glorious_a and_o

and_o contrary_a course_n of_o life_n 2_o note_v the_o censure_n which_o the_o jew_n give_v of_o they_o both_o they_o be_v please_v with_o neither_o of_o they_o john_n for_o his_o austerity_n live_v not_o like_o a_o man_n he_o doubtless_o have_v a_o devil_n and_o jesus_n for_o his_o familiarity_n live_v not_o like_o a_o sober_a man_n he_o be_v a_o glutton_n and_o a_o wine-bibber_n this_o be_v their_o censure_n 3_o observe_v the_o mutual_a testimony_n that_o jesus_n and_o john_n do_v give_v the_o one_o of_o the_o other_o jesus_n say_v of_o john_n he_o be_v more_o than_o a_o prophet_n &_o the_o chief_a among_o the_o son_n of_o woman_n and_o john_n say_v of_o jesus_n that_o he_o be_v more_o than_o a_o man_n and_o so_o far_o above_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o untie_v his_o shoe_n non_fw-la litigaverunt_fw-la inter_fw-la se_fw-la these_o two_o rare_a man_n of_o very_a different_a quality_n &_o condition_n yet_o do_v not_o strive_v one_o against_o another_o they_o strive_v how_o each_o might_n most_o honour_v the_o other_o and_o this_o may_v teach_v we_o what_o we_o shall_v do_v if_o we_o cavil_v at_o other_o man_n virtue_n and_o deprave_v their_o do_n when_o they_o agree_v not_o to_o our_o fancy_n we_o be_v not_o like_o either_o jesus_n or_o john_n we_o resemble_v rather_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharise_n who_o be_v please_v neither_o with_o fullness_n nor_o fast_v but_o if_o we_o will_v imitate_v john_n and_o jesus_n then_o if_o we_o see_v in_o divers_a man_n different_a virtue_n we_o must_v acknowledge_v god_n in_o they_o all_o and_o if_o one_o man_n be_v sociable_a like_o christ_n when_o we_o be_v severe_a like_o john_n and_o if_o another_o be_v humble_a like_o the_o centurion_n when_o we_o be_v hearty_a like_o zaccheus_n and_o if_o a_o three_o be_v meek_a like_o moses_n while_o we_o be_v zealous_a like_o phineas_n we_o may_v not_o judge_v they_o because_o they_o agree_v not_o

himself_o please_v and_o so_o he_o please_v to_o bestow_v they_o as_o he_o see_v man_n be_v able_a to_o use_v they_o for_o the_o good_a of_o his_o church_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o name_n these_o brief_o be_v the_o proof_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v of_o star_n in_o heaven_n though_o all_o be_v glorious_a in_o their_o kind_n yet_o that_o one_o star_n differ_v from_o a_o other_o star_n in_o glory_n 1_o cor._n 15.41_o so_o we_o may_v say_v of_o the_o saint_n upon_o earth_n that_o though_o all_o of_o they_o be_v holy_a and_o righteous_a yet_o one_o differ_v from_o another_o in_o grace_n and_o goodness_n and_o so_o much_o for_o proof_n and_o declaration_n of_o the_o first_o point_n 2_o the_o second_o be_v obs_n 2_o that_o the_o same_o man_n be_v

be_v hear_v where_o be_v the_o smell_v and_o verse_n 29._o be_v all_o apostle_n be_v all_o prophet_n etc._n etc._n in_o these_o word_n the_o apostle_n do_v at_o large_a set_v down_o the_o point_n in_o hand_n but_o more_o particular_o we_o may_v note_v that_o he_o declare_v it_o three_o way_n 1_o affirmative_o when_o he_o say_v there_o be_v diversity_n etc._n etc._n 2_o negative_o when_o he_o say_v be_v all_o apostle_n &_o c_o 3_o by_o way_n of_o comparison_n or_o similitude_n when_o he_o say_v 12._o say_v verse_n 12._o for_o as_o the_o body_n be_v one_o and_o have_v many_o member_n etc._n etc._n and_o if_o the_o whole_a body_n be_v a_o eye_n where_o be_v the_o hear_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v in_o the_o mystical_a body_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o natural_a body_n of_o a_o man_n in_o the_o natural_a body_n there_o be_v many_o member_n and_o every_o member_n have_v its_o several_a office_n differ_v and_o distinct_a from_o other_o for_o the_o eye_n have_v the_o faculty_n of_o see_v but_o not_o of_o hear_v or_o smell_v and_o the_o ear_n have_v the_o faculty_n of_o hear_v but_o not_o of_o see_v or_o speak_v and_o the_o nose_n have_v the_o faculty_n of_o smell_v but_o not_o of_o see_v or_o hear_v or_o taste_v etc._n etc._n and_o so_o in_o the_o body_n mystical_a the_o office_n of_o man_n be_v different_a one_o be_v a_o

the_o proof_n the_o point_n will_v yet_o be_v more_o plain_a and_o more_o fit_a for_o use_v and_o application_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o reason_n why_o god_n have_v thus_o dispose_v of_o his_o gift_n and_o they_o be_v these_o and_o such_o like_a reason_n 1._o one_o reason_n why_o god_n do_v thus_o different_o distribute_v his_o gift_n may_v be_v because_o he_o will_v show_v himself_o as_o

for_o there_o be_v not_o the_o mean_a and_o most_o despicable_a of_o all_o these_o but_o have_v his_o necessary_a use_n so_o that_o the_o great_a or_o the_o wealthy_a potentate_n can_v tell_v how_o

all_o for_o the_o beauty_n &_o benefit_n of_o the_o whole_a frame_n it_o be_v a_o plain_a argument_n that_o the_o hand_n of_o divine_a providence_n have_v the_o dispose_n of_o these_o thing_n and_o that_o god_n it_o be_v who_o have_v thus_o divide_v to_o every_o man_n several_o as_o he_o will_v as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v 1_o cor._n 12.11_o reason_n 2._o a_o second_o reason_n may_v be_v because_o god_n will_v have_v man_n to_o take_v notice_n both_o of_o their_o gift_n and_o of_o their_o defect_n that_o by_o the_o one_o they_o may_v learn_v humility_n and_o by_o the_o other_o
