the_o flesh_n so_o god_n the_o son_n appoint_v the_o other_o to_o continue_v until_o his_o second_o come_v to_o judgement_n and_o both_o to_o remain_v in_o that_o same_o case_n for_o dignity_n and_o

post_fw-la neither_o in_o regard_n of_o their_o extraordinary_a gift_n nor_o extraordinary_a manner_n of_o call_v nor_o the_o extent_n of_o their_o charge_n nor_o their_o infallibility_n of_o spirit_n than_o it_o be_v not_o extraordinary_a at_o all_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n to_o come_v but_o for_o none_o of_o these_o foresay_a respect_n can_v their_o call_n be_v call_v extraordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n to_o come_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o extraordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n to_o come_v i_o prove_v the_o assumption_n and_o first_o that_o their_o call_n can_v be_v call_v extraordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o their_o extraordinary_a gift_n the_o gift_n of_o prophecy_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o miracle_n etc._n etc._n for_o then_o if_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o bestow_v extraordinary_a gift_n upon_o ordinary_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n their_o calling_n shall_v cease_v any_o long_a to_o be_v ordinary_a which_o be_v absurd_a to_o say_v for_o it_o be_v evident_a in_o scripture_n that_o ordinary_a minister_n both_o of_o the_o law_n &_o the_o gospel_n have_v have_v extraordinary_a gift_n as_o samuel_n who_o be_v a_o priest_n which_o be_v a_o ordinary_a call_n for_o although_o samuel_n be_v not_o of_o the_o tribe_n of_o levi_n yet_o he_o be_v a_o nazarite_n who_o may_v by_o god_n own_o appointment_n serve_v at_o the_o altar_n and_o yet_o he_o have_v extraordinary_a gift_n 1_o sam._n 1.11_o zachary_n be_v a_o priest_n and_o yet_o he_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o prophecy_n john_n 11.50_o 51._o so_o the_o apostle_n james_n say_v that_o elder_n in_o his_o time_n have_v the_o gift_n of_o healing_n jam._n 5.14_o 15._o and_o yet_o no_o man_n will_v say_v that_o the_o call_n of_o a_o elder_a be_v extraordinary_a other_o than_o be_v now_o so_o the_o call_n of_o a_o king_n be_v a_o ordinary_a call_n and_o yet_o david_n king_n of_o israel_n be_v a_o prophet_n as_o well_o as_o a_o king_n and_o in_o a_o word_n we_o read_v in_o ancient_a history_n that_o many_o churchman_n have_v have_v extraordinary_a gift_n and_o yet_o their_o calling_n be_v ordinary_a and_o so_o i_o conclude_v that_o extraordinary_a gift_n do_v not_o make_v a_o extraordinary_a call_n next_o the_o extent_n of_o their_o charge_n do_v not_o make_v their_o call_n extraordinary_a because_o necessity_n require_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o until_o the_o time_n that_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v propagate_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o nation_n yet_o unconvert_v as_o without_o doubt_n there_o be_v too_o many_o the_o

but_o that_o that_o charge_v give_v to_o the_o apostle_n go_v teach_v all_o nation_n etc._n etc._n remain_v still_o in_o force_n three_o as_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o call_n be_v without_o education_n trial_n and_o ordination_n it_o make_v it_o extraordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n past_a but_o not_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n to_o come_v for_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o priest_n under_o the_o law_n the_o manner_n of_o their_o call_n be_v extraordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n past_a and_o without_o both_o trial_n and_o education_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o their_o call_n be_v ordinary_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o time_n to_o come_v and_o to_o be_v continue_v in_o the_o church_n until_o christ_n his_o come_n in_o the_o flesh_n and_o last_o infallibility_n of_o spirit_n which_o the_o apostle_n have_v make_v not_o their_o call_n extraordinary_a for_o they_o behove_v to_o be_v infallible_o guide_v because_o they_o be_v to_o lay_v the_o foundation_n whereupon_o other_o be_v to_o build_v they_o be_v to_o plant_v other_o only_o to_o water_n that_o which_o they_o have_v plant_v they_o be_v to_o establish_v the_o faith_n which_o all_o age_n to_o come_v be_v bind_v to_o profess_v and_o so_o it_o be_v most_o necessary_a that_o they_o shall_v be_v infallible_o guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n further_n christ_n promise_n be_v not_o only_o to_o be_v with_o his_o apostle_n but_o with_o they_o and_o their_o successor_n until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o lo_o i_o be_o with_o you_o say_v he_o until_o etc._n etc._n now_o i_o will_v prove_v by_o evidence_n of_o scripture_n that_o the_o call_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v a_o ordinary_a call_n and_o to_o be_v continue_v until_o the_o second_o come_v of_o our_o saviour_n with_o

to_o continue_v until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n the_o reason_n of_o the_o proposition_n be_v this_o because_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o other_o way_n able_a to_o keep_v this_o commandment_n but_o in_o their_o successor_n in_o the_o generation_n to_o come_v if_o it_o have_v please_v god_n by_o his_o omnipotent_a power_n to_o preserve_v they_o alive_a and_o keep_v they_o in_o health_n of_o

have_v deliver_v viz_o the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n mat._n 20.25_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o gentile_n say_v he_o have_v dominion_n over_o they_o and_o they_o that_o be_v great_a exercise_n

that_o will_v but_o take_v a_o strict_a view_n of_o the_o word_n for_o first_o you_o see_v christ_n forbid_v such_o domination_n as_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o gentile_n exercise_v towards_o their_o

have_v say_v out_o of_o all_o question_n i_o will_v not_o have_v degree_n and_o rank_n among_o you_o one_o above_o another_o as_o it_o be_v between_o the_o high_a priest_n in_o feriour_a priest_n and_o levit_n no_o i_o will_v have_v you_o all_o of_o alike_a power_n and_o authority_n again_o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o they_o that_o be_v great_a exercise_n authority_n over_o their_o subject_n that_o be_v great_a and_o mighty_a man_n proud_a man_n they_o domineer_v over_o their_o inferior_n and_o make_v slave_n of_o they_o but_o say_v our_o saviour_n it_o must_v not_o be_v so_o among_o you_o you_o must_v not_o domineer_v in_o that_o kind_n but_o he_o say_v he_o that_o will_v be_v great_a among_o you_o let_v he_o be_v servant_n to_o the_o rest_n that_o be_v let_v he_o so_o demean_v himself_o that_o you_o may_v be_v defend_v maintain_v protect_v and_o care_v for_o both_o in_o soul_n and_o body_n so_o that_o in_o my_o judgement_n these_o word_n do_v necessary_o imply_v a_o

and_o tyrannize_v over_o man_n conscience_n will_v to_o god_n that_o such_o do_n might_n not_o also_o be_v lay_v to_o the_o charge_n of_o some_o other_o who_o pretend_v great_a humility_n and_o

according_a to_o every_o one_o necessity_n s●_n that_o it_o will_v seem_v that_o the_o civil_a power_n of_o churchman_n be_v not_o altogether_o unlawful_a true_o in_o my_o judgement_n it_o be_v as_o
