so_o soon_o at_o least_o as_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v receive_v by_o their_o covernour_n and_o law_n can_v be_v make_v for_o put_v god_n ordinance_n in_o execution_n for_o that_o stand_a maintenance_n by_o tithe_n not_o in_o levi's_fw-la right_a as_o successor_n to_o he_o but_o as_o servant_n to_o christ_n 5._o that_o this_o be_v the_o apostle_n meaning_n be_v evident_a because_o tithe_n be_v first_o pay_v long_o before_o levi_n to_o melchisedech_n a_o priest_n of_o christ_n own_o order_n and_o abraham_n the_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o in_o he_o levi_n pay_v tithe_n unto_o melchisedech_n as_o the_o forerunner_n of_o christ_n in_o respect_n of_o priesthood_n it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o tithe_n be_v still_o due_a to_o christ_n in_o who_o name_n and_o right_n his_o servants_z the_o minister_n ought_v to_o take_v and_o enjoy_v they_o for_o the_o apostle_n upon_o this_o very_a ground_n prove_v christ_n to_o be_v a_o priest_n after_o the_o order_n of_o

the_o first_o tithe_n be_v the_o proper_a stand_a maintenance_n set_v out_o by_o god_n for_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o all_o settle_a and_o well-governed_a christian_a commonwealth_n which_o in_o obedience_n to_o god_n make_v law_n for_o the_o due_a payment_n of_o they_o for_o that_o they_o still_o belong_v to_o christ_n as_o his_o inheritance_n and_o portion_n payable_a to_o his_o minister_n by_o way_n of_o homage_n unto_o he_o as_o his_o right_n from_o all_o his_o people_n and_o therefore_o to_o alien_n or_o employ_v they_o to_o any_o other_o use_n under_o any_o pretence_n

to_o alien_n they_o this_o point_n have_v two_o branch_n to_o be_v prosecute_v distinct_o 1._o that_o there_o be_v no_o warrant_n in_o scripture_n for_o the_o give_v of_o land_n to_o bishop_n nor_o

not_o land_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o expositor_n ancient_a and_o modern_a popish_a as_o well_o as_o protestant_a it_o extend_v therefore_o to_o tithe_n only_o as_o the_o constant_a stand_a
