commendation_n but_o to_o let_v pass_v the_o utterance_n of_o speech_n let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o mind_n the_o general_a disposition_n whereof_o i_o touch_v brief_o before_o to_o wit_n that_o we_o shall_v lay_v aside_o all_o desire_n of_o show_n of_o humane_a knowledge_n and_o purpose_n only_o to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n crucify_v the_o particular_a affection_n require_v to_o make_v our_o prophesy_a or_o preach_v acceptable_a unto_o god_n as_o they_o be_v command_v in_o diverse_a and_o sundry_a place_n of_o the_o word_n so_o the_o apostle_n rejoice_v that_o he_o observe_v in_o a_o good_a conscience_n this_o heavenly_a kind_n of_o preach_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o the_o first_o epistle_n of_o peter_n the_o holy_a ghost_n commend_v unto_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n a_o earnest_a care_n a_o willing_a heart_n a_o ready_a mind_n a_o zealous_a desire_n to_o become_v ensample_n to_o their_o flock_n 5.2_o say_v feed_v the_o flock_n of_o god_n which_o depend_v upon_o you_o care_v for_o it_o not_o by_o constraint_n but_o willing_o not_o for_o filthy_a lucre_n but_o of_o a_o ready_a mind_n 3._o not_o as_o though_o you_o be_v lord_n of_o god_n heritage_n but_o that_o you_o may_v be_v ensample_n to_o the_o flock_n also_o our_o saviour_n christ_n the_o chief_a shepherd_n of_o the_o flock_n as_o appear_v in_o the_o ten_o of_o matth._n gospel_n 10._o send_v out_o his_o disciple_n to_o the_o lose_a sheep_n of_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n charge_v they_o whole_o to_o depend_v upon_o he_o to_o give_v free_o without_o respect_n of_o filthy_a lucre_n to_o fear_v nothing_o in_o the_o execution_n of_o their_o office_n to_o be_v full_o resolve_v in_o their_o mind_n to_o lose_v their_o life_n for_o his_o sake_n final_o to_o keep_v themselves_o in_o all_o respect_n pure_a and_o innocent_a as_o dove_n whereunto_o agree_v that_o commandment_n of_o paul_n to_o timothy_n touch_v the_o ordination_n of_o minister_n whereby_o he_o teach_v that_o every_o minister_n ought_v to_o be_v watchful_a sober_a modest_a lover_n harbourous_a a_o lover_n of_o goodness_n wise_n righteous_a holy_a temperate_a and_o unreprovable_a so_o that_o by_o these_o precept_n and_o commandment_n it_o evident_o appear_v with_o what_o care_n of_o the_o flock_n willingness_n and_o readiness_n of_o mind_n desire_v by_o example_n to_o edify_v boldness_n of_o heart_n confidence_n in_o god_n love_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o sheep_n with_o what_o full_a purpose_n with_o loss_n of_o life_n to_o persevere_v unto_o the_o end_n and_o last_o with_o what_o contempt_n of_o all_o worldly_a praise_n and_o with_o what_o zeal_n of_o god_n glory_n every_o minister_n ought_v to_o approve_v his_o ministry_n unto_o christ_n &_o the_o conscience_n of_o his_o flock_n but_o if_o we_o will_v see_v these_o precept_n put_v in_o ure_n and_o practice_n let_v we_o diligent_o mark_v the_o life_n and_o conversation_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n especial_o of_o saint_n paul_n who_o as_o he_o be_v the_o chief_a in_o work_n so_o the_o plain_a in_o declaration_n hereof_o and_o compare_v in_o every_o particular_a his_o behaviour_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o his_o ministry_n with_o we_o he_o say_v 9.16_o though_o i_o preach_v the_o gospel_n i_o have_v nothing_o to_o rejoice_v of_o for_o necessity_n be_v lay_v upon_o i_o and_o woe_n be_v unto_o i_o 17._o if_o i_o preach_v not_o the_o gospel_n for_o if_o i_o do_v it_o willing_o i_o have_v a_o reward_v but_o if_o i_o do_v it_o against_o my_o will_v notwithstanding_o the_o dispensation_n be_v commit_v unto_o i_o but_o which_o of_o we_o do_v not_o rejoice_v and_o be_v glad_a when_o he_o have_v preach_v a_o few_o sermon_n with_o like_n and_o praise_n of_o mortal_a man_n what_o dumb_a dog_n do_v terrify_v his_o own_o heart_n from_o sin_n with_o this_o woe_n against_o himself_o for_o not_o preach_v the_o gospel_n or_o who_o do_v not_o for_o lucre_n fear_n and_o praise_n of_o man_n rather_o than_o willing_o &_o of_o a_o ready_a mind_n feed_v the_o poor_a flock_n of_o christ_n paul_n though_o he_o be_v free_a from_o all_o man_n ●_o yet_o he_o make_v himself_o servant_n unto_o all_o that_o he_o may_v win_v the_o more_o unto_o the_o jew_n he_o become_v a_o jew_n to_o they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n as_o though_o he_o be_v under_o the_o law_n to_o the_o weak_a he_o become_v as_o weak_a and_o in_o deed_n he_o be_v make_v all_o thing_n to_o all_o man_n for_o the_o gospel_n sake_n that_o he_o may_v be_v partaker_n thereof_o but_o where_o be_v that_o minister_n amongst_o we_o which_o through_o love_n humble_v himself_o and_o bear_v with_o the_o infirmity_n of_o ignorance_n lack_v of_o knowledge_n wisdom_n and_o discretion_n in_o his_o flock_n and_o fellow_n brethren_n nay_o which_o of_o we_o with_o paul_n beat_v down_o his_o body_n 9.27_o and_o bring_v it_o into_o subjection_n lest_o in_o preach_v to_o other_o he_o himself_o become_v a_o castaway_n the_o lord_n pardon_v we_o this_o our_o offence_n for_o i_o fear_v i_o the_o care_n we_o have_v of_o our_o mortal_a body_n far_o surmount_v the_o care_n we_o have_v of_o the_o salvation_n of_o ourselves_o or_o of_o our_o brethren_n 33._o paul_n do_v please_v all_o man_n in_o all_o thing_n not_o seek_v his_o own_o profit_n but_o the_o profit_n of_o many_o that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v but_o as_o for_o we_o though_o many_o i_o grant_v do_v please_v all_o man_n in_o all_o thing_n yet_o they_o seek_v their_o own_o profit_n and_o gain_v not_o the_o profit_n of_o any_o one_o that_o he_o may_v be_v save_v for_o in_o deed_n they_o make_v merchandise_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n they_o be_v cover_v with_o the_o cloak_n of_o shame_n and_o walk_v in_o craftiness_n they_o handle_v the_o word_n of_o god_o deceytfullye_o preach_v themselves_o and_o not_o christ_n jesus_n the_o lord_n nor_o themselves_o the_o servant_n of_o his_o people_n and_o that_o which_o be_v most_o lamentable_a of_o all_o they_o give_v great_a and_o just_a occasion_n why_o the_o ministry_n of_o reconciliation_n shall_v be_v evil_o speak_v of_o and_o despise_v 4.1.2_o contrariwise_o paul_n he_o speak_v of_o christ_n as_o of_o sincerity_n as_o of_o god_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n he_o cast_v of_o the_o cloak_n of_o shame_n and_o walk_v in_o declaration_n of_o the_o truth_n he_o approve_v himself_o to_o every_o man_n conscience_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_o he_o preach_v christ_n jesus_n the_o lord_n himself_o a_o servant_n for_o jesus_n sake_n and_o to_o conclude_v he_o give_v no_o occasion_n of_o offence_n in_o any_o thing_n but_o in_o all_o thing_n approve_v himself_o as_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n 6.7_o by_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n and_o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n see_v therefore_o many_o of_o we_o be_v fall_v away_o from_o our_o first_o love_n and_o former_a zeal_n and_o have_v embrace_v this_o present_a world_n which_o if_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o more_o merciful_a will_v choke_v in_o we_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o god_o we_o have_v need_v to_o look_v unto_o ourselves_o betimes_o and_o to_o frame_v ourselves_o according_a to_o the_o example_n of_o this_o bless_a apostle_n in_o the_o careful_a and_o sincere_a dispensation_n of_o our_o ministry_n lest_o our_o preach_a bee_n though_o profitable_a to_o other_o yet_o damnable_a to_o ourselves_o moreover_o paul_n be_v gentle_a towards_o his_o flock_n 11._o as_o a_o nurse_n cherish_v her_o child_n exhort_v and_o beseech_v they_o as_o a_o father_n teach_v open_o 20.20_o and_o through_o every_o house_n keep_v nothing_o back_o that_o be_v profitable_a but_o show_v unto_o they_o all_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n and_o to_o shut_v up_o all_o in_o one_o word_n he_o be_v very_o ready_a and_o willing_a to_o deal_v unto_o they_o 2.8_o not_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n only_o but_o also_o his_o own_o soul_n because_o they_o be_v dear_a unto_o he_o behold_v here_o in_o paul_n as_o in_o a_o most_o clear_a glass_n a_o perfect_a pattern_n of_o a_o good_a and_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n our_o miserable_a imperfection_n and_o sinful_a degenerate_v from_o the_o same_o this_o kind_n of_o preach_v be_v that_o only_a wherein_o we_o may_v rejoice_v which_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n profitable_a to_o his_o church_n comfortable_a to_o the_o speaker_n this_o be_v that_o true_a and_o perfect_a pattern_n of_o preach_v which_o paul_n commit_v to_o timothy_n both_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o utterance_n and_o of_o the_o disposition_n of_o the_o mind_n which_o he_o charge_v to_o be_v keep_v and_o observe_v that_o he_o may_v be_v a_o example_n to_o they_o that_o believe_v in_o word_n in_o conversation_n in_o love_n in_o spirit_n in_o faith_n and_o
