apostolical_a authority_n as_o they_o teach_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o they_o be_v inspire_a in_o write_v for_o they_o be_v the_o best_a judge_n of_o their_o own_o inspiration_n and_o can_v best_o know_v when_o they_o be_v inspire_v and_o therefore_o if_o any_o will_v undertake_v to_o disprove_v the_o divine_a authority_n or_o inspiration_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n they_o must_v first_o of_o all_o prove_v that_o those_o writer_n be_v not_o inspire_v nor_o do_v ever_o give_v sufficient_a evidence_n that_o they_o be_v inspire_v but_o if_o they_o be_v inspire_v and_o do_v withal_o

their_o write_n as_o their_o teach_v as_o what_o they_o write_v be_v the_o same_o with_o what_o they_o teach_v and_o therefore_o what_o they_o teach_v be_v confirm_v by_o sufficient_a evidence_n to_o

to_o what_o they_o teach_v as_o concordant_a with_o what_o they_o write_v and_o to_o the_o testimony_n give_v to_o the_o one_o for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o other_o they_o appeal_v to_o what_o

or_o a_o angel_n from_o heaven_n preach_v any_o other_o gospel_n unto_o you_o than_o that_o you_o have_v receive_v let_v he_o be_v accurse_v so_o they_o appeal_v to_o the_o evidence_n of_o their_o

themselves_o receive_v it_o not_o by_o inspiration_n and_o that_o their_o teach_v and_o write_v be_v not_o the_o same_o and_o obtain_v in_o the_o same_o way_n 3._o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v worthy_a of_o such_o author_n as_o be_v inspire_v and_o have_v upon_o they_o the_o character_n of_o such_o inspiration_n v._n i_o have_v before_o prove_v that_o the_o matter_n contain_v in_o scripture_n have_v upon_o it_o the_o character_n of_o a_o divine_a revelation_n but_o the_o design_n before_o we_o now_o be_v to_o show_v that_o the_o write_v itself_o have_v upon_o it_o such_o character_n as_o will_v entitle_v it_o to_o divine_a inspiration_n and_o be_v worthy_a of_o such_o person_n to_o write_v as_o be_v inspire_v and_o that_o 1._o if_o we_o consider_v who_o the_o person_n be_v that_o be_v the_o penman_n of_o the_o sacred_a writ_n that_o be_v as_o well_o ignorant_a and_o illiterate_a as_o learned_a 14._o thus_o we_o find_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n a_o amos_n that_o be_v no_o prophet_n nor_o prophet_n son_n nor_o breed_v up_o in_o their_o school_n but_o a_o herdman_n and_o gatherer_n of_o sycamore_n fruit_n be_v make_v at_o once_o a_o prophet_n and_o as_o inspire_a as_o the_o great_a the_o noble_a and_o eloquent_a isaiah_n and_o under_o the_o gospel_n we_o find_v a_o matthew_n and_o a_o john_n as_o well_o as_o a_o luke_n a_o peter_n as_o well_o as_o a_o paul_n for_o when_o the_o workmanship_n proceed_v not_o from_o the_o hand_n but_o the_o intelligent_a mind_n not_o from_o the_o instrument_n but_o the_o efficient_a it_o be_v not_o what_o the_o hand_n the_o instrument_n and_o agent_n be_v but_o what_o the_o efficient_a please_v and_o so_o god_n can_v make_v a_o apostle_n and_o a_o inspire_a person_n out_o of_o a_o illiterate_a fisherman_n as_o well_o as_o out_o of_o he_o that_o sit_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o gamaliel_n for_o god_n choose_v the_o foolish_a thing_n of_o the_o world_n to_o confound_v the_o wise_a and_o the_o weak_a thing_n of_o the_o world_n to_o confound_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v mighty_a etc._n etc._n that_o no_o flesh_n shall_v glory_v in_o his_o presence_n 1_o cor._n 1._o 27._o and_o as_o it_o be_v in_o preach_v so_o it_o be_v in_o write_v the_o gospel_n in_o which_o god_n no_o less_o give_v they_o a_o mind_n to_o indite_v than_o a_o mouth_n and_o wisdom_n in_o teach_v to_o speak_v so_o that_o they_o need_v no_o 15._o more_o to_o meditate_v before_o what_o to_o write_v than_o in_o that_o case_n what_o they_o shall_v answer_v it_o be_v there_o as_o the_o spirit_n give_v they_o utterance_n and_o here_o as_o that_o do_v direct_v and_o assist_v or_o suggest_v st._n paul_n exhort_v timothy_n to_o give_v attendance_n to_o read_v till_o he_o himself_o shall_v come_v to_o give_v he_o far_o instruction_n

human_a mean_n in_o what_o they_o write_v then_o it_o be_v paul_n a_o apostle_n not_o of_o man_n neither_o by_o man_n but_o by_o jesus_n and_o god_n the_o father_n the_o gospel_n he_o write_v be_v the_o same_o he_o teach_v and_o which_o when_o he_o write_v he_o no_o more_o receive_v from_o man_n than_o when_o he_o teach_v and_o which_o he_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n gal._n 1._o 1_o 11_o 12._o and_o therefore_o where_o all_o be_v by_o revelation_n it_o be_v not_o as_o the_o man_n be_v but_o as_o he_o be_v make_v and_o as_o st._n peter_n be_v as_o much_o a_o apostle_n a_o inspire_a teacher_n so_o he_o be_v as_o much_o a_o divine_a writer_n as_o st._n paul_n and_o write_v with_o the_o same_o divine_a power_n and_o authority_n and_o with_o as_o much_o
