there_o be_v mention_n of_o two_o distinct_a sort_n of_o minister_n of_o god_n appointment_n first_o such_o as_o receive_v some_o new_a revelation_n either_o a_o law_n or_o a_o particular_a message_n

call_v prophet_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o apostle_n prophet_n etc._n etc._n in_o the_o new_a so_o moses_n receive_v the_o law_n from_o god_n and_o the_o follow_a prophet_n their_o

and_o evangelist_n have_v it_o by_o immediate_a inspiration_n all_o these_o be_v necessary_o by_o miracle_n or_o some_o infallible_a evidence_n to_o prove_v their_o own_o call_n before_o the_o hearer_n can_v receive_v their_o doctrine_n for_o this_o be_v their_o message_n the_o lord_n have_v command_v i_o to_o say_v thus_o or_o thus_o to_o you_o or_o the_o word_n which_o the_o lord_n speak_v to_o i_o be_v thus_o or_o thus_o this_o sort_n of_o minister_n the_o papist_n and_o seeker_n do_v confess_v but_o beside_o these_o there_o be_v a_o second_o sort_n of_o true_a minister_n who_o office_n be_v not_o to_o receive_v from_o god_n any_o new_a doctrine_n law_n or_o message_n but_o to_o proclaim_v the_o law_n already_o deliver_v and_o teach_v man_n the_o doctrine_n already_o
