and_o more_o excellent_o conduce_v to_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o people_n and_o require_v at_o least_o as_o much_o diligence_n and_o labour_n in_o the_o minister_n thereof_o it_o ought_v therefore_o to_o have_v at_o least_o as_o large_a nay_o a_o more_o large_a and_o a_o more_o comfortable_a supportance_n and_o it_o be_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v so_o comfortable_a unless_o it_o be_v

else_o why_o shall_v any_o man_n give_v more_o for_o a_o lease_n for_o life_n or_o year_n than_o for_o a_o tenancy_n at_o will_n and_o therefore_o though_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o first_o rudiment_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o church_n can_v not_o upon_o the_o sudden_a attain_v unto_o such_o a_o settlement_n partly_o for_o want_v of_o the_o christian_a magistrate_n and_o partly_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o afflictive_a condition_n of_o the_o church_n which_o in_o those_o time_n require_v and_o produce_v a_o kind_n of_o community_n among_o those_o that_o be_v thorough_o establish_v in_o christianity_n who_o bring_v all_o as_o it_o seem_v to_o the_o apostle_n foot_n and_o partly_o for_o fear_v of_o offend_v those_o that_o be_v not_o yet_o establish_v lest_o they_o shall_v be_v fright_v by_o worldly_a respect_n from_o the_o embracement_n of_o the_o gospel_n yet_o where_o the_o gospel_n be_v settle_v and_o establish_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o magistrate_n it_o be_v most_o requisite_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v as_o a_o liberal_a so_o a_o certain_a and_o settle_a allowance_n unto_o the_o ministry_n not_o only_o for_o their_o encouragement_n in_o the_o manage_n of_o that_o great_a charge_n that_o they_o have_v upon_o they_o but_o also_o to_o free_v they_o from_o manifold_a temptation_n and_o snare_n that_o tie_v in_o the_o dependence_n upon_o the_o voluntary_a and_o uncertain_a supply_n of_o the_o people_n for_o first_o in_o such_o a_o case_n of_o uncertainty_n the_o minister_n can_v likely_o but_o be_v much_o confound_v in_o the_o dispose_n and_o proportion_v of_o his_o expense_n and_o provision_n his_o revenue_n be_v still_o upon_o uncertainty_n and_o not_o only_o alterable_a but_o quite_o extinguishable_a upon_o every_o dislike_n of_o the_o people_n the_o consequence_n whereof_o be_v like_a to_o be_v not_o only_a disturbance_n of_o mind_n and_o distraction_n but_o also_o a_o great_a impediment_n unto_o the_o exercise_n of_o his_o hospitality_n and_o charity_n since_o he_o can_v scarce_o possible_o tell_v how_o to_o regulate_v it_o for_o he_o that_o know_v not_o what_o he_o have_v can_v know_v what_o he_o can_v spare_v if_o any_o shall_v here_o reply_v that_o the_o minister_n be_v to_o depend_v upon_o god_n providence_n i_o answer_v that_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o every_o christian_n as_o well_o as_o the_o minister_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o hold_v at_o all_o unlawful_a for_o the_o workman_n to_o agree_v before_o hand_n for_o his_o wage_n nor_o do_v those_o that_o press_v this_o either_o hold_v it_o or_o practice_n

for_o their_o supportance_n the_o ministry_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v equal_o bind_v to_o depend_v upon_o god_n providence_n with_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o have_v as_o clear_a

the_o minister_n be_v too_o dangerous_o expose_v unto_o the_o desire_n to_o please_v man_n and_o to_o preach_v placentia_fw-la to_o play_v that_o tune_n that_o they_o be_v please_v to_o dance_v leave_v he_o be_v turn_v away_o without_o his_o reward_n three_o it_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o discourage_v the_o minister_n in_o the_o reproof_n of_o sin_n when_o he_o know_v that_o he_o may_v not_o only_o lose_v the_o people_n favour_n but_o their_o supply_n too_o when_o by_o such_o a_o course_n the_o people_n be_v make_v as_o it_o be_v his_o judge_n and_o enable_v to_o censure_n and_o mulct_v he_o whensoever_o he_o do_v not_o humour_v they_o four_o it_o be_v likely_a to_o occasion_v many_o temptation_n to_o discontent_n and_o partiality_n of_o affection_n between_o the_o minister_n and_o people_n as_o they_o shall_v increase_v or_o decrease_v afford_v or_o take_v away_o their_o contribution_n five_o experience_n teach_v we_o that_o this_o have_v be_v too_o fruitful_a a_o nursery_n of_o schism_n and_o faction_n and_o division_n in_o the_o church_n as_o we_o may_v see_v too_o clear_o in_o the_o division_n of_o these_o time_n which_o be_v sufficient_o know_v to_o be_v set_v a_o foot_n much_o more_o by_o those_o if_o not_o altogether_o by_o those_o who_o have_v have_v their_o dependency_n upon_o the_o voluntary_a supply_n of_o the_o people_n than_o by_o other_o of_o the_o ministry_n six_o this_o will_v be_v too_o much_o encouragement_n for_o wicked_a man_n to_o go_v on_o in_o open_a and_o scandalous_a iniquity_n when_o they_o know_v that_o they_o have_v the_o command_n of_o such_o a_o key_n unto_o the_o minister_n mouth_n etc._n etc._n i_o confess_v we_o nor_o they_o shall_v not_o yield_v unto_o any_o of_o these_o nor_o unto_o any_o other_o temptation_n but_o in_o the_o regulate_a and_o order_v of_o the_o public_a matter_n of_o a_o church_n it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o christian_a wisdom_n to_o provide_v as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v against_o sin_n by_o settle_v all_o thing_n in_o the_o safe_a way_n against_o temptation_n and_o humane_a weakness_n on_o all_o side_n and_o this_o be_v do_v herein_o by_o a_o settle_a and_o competent_a allowance_n to_o the_o ministry_n and_o though_o i_o confess_v there_o may_v be_v some_o doubt_n make_v whether_o that_o very_o precise_a proportion_n of_o the_o ten_o part_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a in_o simple_a and_o primary_n consideration_n now_o under_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o under_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o first_o i_o know_v no_o argument_n that_o they_o have_v against_o it_o to_o prove_v the_o contrary_n the_o best_a that_o they_o can_v do_v i_o concern_v be_v but_o to_o infuse_v some_o doubt_n and_o ambiguity_n into_o the_o matter_n and_o then_o in_o a_o question_n of_o title_n between_o god_n and_o we_o it_o be_v much_o safe_a for_o we_o to_o yield_v than_o to_o stand_v to_o the_o hazard_n of_o a_o trial_n with_o god_n at_o the_o last_o day_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v nothing_o leave_v to_o make_v restitution_n with_o but_o our_o soul_n and_o the_o forfeiture_n may_v be_v out_o eternal_a damnation_n all_o the_o overplus_n that_o be_v pay_v unto_o god_n god_n will_v assure_o restore_v if_o we_o do_v it_o with_o a_o christian_a heart_n but_o if_o we_o hold_v back_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v his_o due_n it_o may_v be_v purchase_v to_o we_o at_o too_o dare_v a_o rate_n both_o in_o judgement_n here_o as_o be_v often_o see_v and_o the_o eminent_a and_o notable_a story_n collect_v by_o sir_n henry_n spelman_n and_o his_o son_n master_n clement_n spelman_n and_o other_o of_o god_n revenge_n against_o sacrilege_n may_v inform_v we_o and_o if_o we_o take_v not_o heed_n in_o great_a judgement_n hereafter_o and_o then_o second_o it_o may_v be_v some_o presumption_n for_o any_o to_o undertake_v to_o find_v out_o a_o wise_a way_n than_o god_n himself_o find_v out_o as_o be_v this_o way_n of_o tithing_n unto_o the_o ministry_n whereby_o god_n
