magistrate_n to_o we_o therefore_o unfit_a minister_n outward_o call_v be_v minister_n to_o us._n my_o reason_n be_v the_o above_o name_v magistrate_n and_o minister_n agree_v in_o unfitness_n and_o outward_a allowance_n i_o confess_v that_o unfit_a man_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v advance_v either_o to_o magistracy_n or_o ministry_n yet_o the_o action_n of_o unfit_a both_o minister_n and_o magistrate_n be_v substantial_a to_o we_o until_o they_o be_v remove_v that_o a_o argument_n may_v very_o fit_o be_v draw_v from_o the_o magistracy_n to_o the_o ministry_n appear_v by_o this_o little_a which_o i_o have_v deliver_v to_o proceed_v i_o do_v not_o see_v why_o the_o outward_a allowance_n of_o the_o church_n do_v not_o distinguish_v unpreach_v minister_n from_o private_a man_n as_o well_o as_o outward_a baptism_n do_v distinguish_v such_o as_o be_v baptize_v from_o pagan_n i._o penry_n 2_o the_o magistracy_n of_o a_o evil_a magistrate_n may_v be_v allowable_a before_o god_n so_o can_v the_o ministry_n of_o reader_n r._n some_o in_o your_o second_o difference_n the_o magistracy_n and_o ministry_n be_v strange_o sort_v you_o shall_v have_v set_v it_o down_o thus_o the_o

have_v i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o magistracy_n of_o pilate_n licinius_n etc._n etc._n be_v of_o god_n though_o his_o majesty_n detest_v such_o magistrate_n second_o that_o though_o ignorant_a man_n be_v not_o allow_v by_o almighty_a god_n for_o good_a and_o sufficient_a minister_n yet_o the_o outward_a call_n do_v distinguish_v they_o to_o we_o from_o private_a man_n otherwise_o it_o be_v
