A55393	Quo warranto, or, A moderate enquiry into the warrantablenesse of the preaching of gifted and unordained persons where also some other questions are discussed : viz. concerning [brace] ministerial relation, election, ordination : being a vindication of the late Jus divinum ministerii evangeliei ... from the exceptions of Mr. John Martin, Mr. Sam.

all_o scripture-preacher_n may_v challenge_v maintenance_n or_o only_o such_o preacher_n as_o be_v in_o office-relation_n to_o those_o to_o who_o they_o preach_v and_o of_o who_o they_o challenge_v maintenance_n but_o not_o only_o such_o preacher_n may_v challenge_v maintenance_n as_o be_v in_o office-relation_n to_o they_o therefore_o all_o scripture-preacher_n may_v challenge_v this_o maintenance_n the_o minor_a for_o that_o only_o be_v liable_a to_o exception_n i_o prove_v thus_o the_o apostle_n say_v our_o brethren_n be_v only_o in_o office-relation_n to_o the_o church_n and_o other_o teacher_n be_v only_o in_o office-relation_n to_o their_o particular_a church_n as_o they_o assert_v but_o these_o may_v challenge_v maintenance_n from_o other_o the_o disciple_n luke_n 10._o

to_o who_o they_o preach_v but_o to_o all_o scripture-preacher_n which_o be_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v prove_v and_o so_o we_o have_v secure_v the_o major_a for_o the_o minor_a it_o be_v needless_a to_o spend_v time_n about_o it_o for_o our_o brethren_n grant_v it_o and_o beside_o it_o speak_v for_o itself_o for_o if_o all_o gift_a man_n be_v bind_v to_o preach_v as_o our_o brethren_n assert_v and_o if_o in_o church_n many_o man_n be_v and_o all_o aught_o to_o covet_v to_o be_v so_o gift_v which_o also_o they_o assert_v than_o the_o maintenance_n of_o such_o will_v be_v both_o absurd_a

and_o so_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o principal_a question_n only_o that_o the_o reader_n may_v be_v able_a more_o judicious_o to_o compare_v thing_n together_o i_o shall_v present_v he_o with_o a_o

they_o be_v unite_v together_o seem_v considerable_a so_o that_o if_o their_o cause_n have_v any_o real_a strength_n in_o it_o we_o shall_v see_v it_o here_o when_o the_o arrow_n be_v all_o put_v
