few_o question_n which_o i_o desire_v to_o propound_v to_o he_o the_o first_o question_n i_o propound_v be_v whether_o he_o believe_v the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o god_n to_o this_o he_o answer_v there_o be_v no_o word_n but_o christ_n which_o he_o will_v have_v prove_v out_o of_o john_n 1._o 1._o in_o the_o beginning_n be_v the_o word_n etc._n etc._n i_o tell_v he_o

distinction_n of_o the_o word_n into_o verbum_fw-la deus_fw-la &_o verbum_fw-la dei_fw-la that_o the_o word_n be_v twofold_a the_o word_n that_o be_v god_n which_o be_v jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o holy_a scripture_n then_o alter_v the_o former_a question_n a_o little_a i_o ask_v he_o whether_o he_o do_v believe_v the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o be_v the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n to_o which_o after_o many_o word_n to_o no_o purpose_n be_v press_v to_o answer_v positive_o he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o the_o word_n of_o god_n there_o be_v no_o write_a word_n the_o next_o question_n i_o ask_v he_o be_v whether_o he_o that_o speak_v or_o teach_v that_o which_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o one_o speak_v from_o the_o immediate_a inspiration_n of_o the_o spirit_n though_o he_o pretend_v to_o do_v so_o to_o this_o be_v reply_v the_o word_n and_o the_o spirit_n be_v one_o what_o say_v i_o do_v you_o understand_v by_o the_o word_n when_o you_o say_v the_o word_n and_o the_o spirit_n be_v one_o he_o say_v by_o the_o word_n he_o mean_v christ._n i_o tell_v he_o we_o do_v believe_v christ_n and_o the_o holy_a spirit_n to_o be_v one_o god_n and_o that_o if_o that_o be_v the_o matter_n of_o his_o answer_n that_o christ_n and_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v one_o it_o be_v impertinent_a to_o my_o question_n i_o than_o put_v the_o case_n touch_v myself_o thus_o if_o i_o say_v i_o shall_v pretend_v to_o preach_v from_o the_o immediate_a assistance_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o preach_v that_o which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n whether_o will_v yourself_o believe_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n speak_v by_o i_o or_o no_o to_o this_o he_o answer_v as_o before_o i_o say_v say_v he_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o word_n be_v one_o i_o tell_v he_o he_o do_v not_o answer_v like_o a_o rational_a man_n and_o press_v he_o to_o answer_v plain_o and_o not_o so_o cloudy_o and_o dark_o as_o he_o do_v endeavour_n to_o do_v that_o those_o be_v auditor_n can_v not_o understand_v what_o he_o mean_v divers_a of_o his_o follower_n that_o be_v there_o present_a say_v altogether_o almost_o the_o devil_n speak_v in_o i_o the_o serpent_n speak_v in_o i_o i_o tell_v they_o that_o be_v a_o pure_a language_n that_o become_v a_o quaker_n better_a than_o a_o christian._n his_o disciple_n there_o present_a desire_v he_o shall_v propound_v some_o question_n to_o myself_o i_o tell_v they_o upon_o that_o condition_n he_o will_v answer_v i_o plain_o to_o some_o question_n i_o further_o desire_v to_o put_v to_o he_o i_o will_v answer_v he_o to_o any_o question_n of_o he_o as_o plain_o as_o i_o can_v he_o then_o ask_v i_o how_o i_o can_v prove_v myself_o to_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o jesus_n christ._n i_o tell_v he_o thati_a have_v be_v call_v and_o ordain_v to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n by_o the_o lay_n on_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o presbytery_n and_o that_o answer_n the_o lord_n have_v be_v please_v merciful_o to_o furnish_v i_o with_o some_o though_o very_o mean_v ability_n for_o the_o discharge_n of_o that_o work_n and_o that_o it_o have_v be_v my_o endeavour_n to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n sincere_o and_o that_o i_o desire_v and_o as_o far_o as_o the_o lord_n assist_v labour_v to_o walk_v as_o become_v that_o doctrine_n he_o tell_v i_o i_o do_v not_o live_v as_o become_v a_o minister_n of_o christ._n i_o ask_v he_o wherein_o he_o can_v accuse_v i_o he_o say_v i_o preach_v for_o hire_n and_o suffer_v myself_o to_o be_v call_v master_n contrary_a to_o the_o command_n of_o christ._n to_o the_o first_o i_o reply_v that_o for_o the_o term_n hire_v or_o wage_n they_o be_v use_v in_o scripture_n that_o our_o saviour_n speak_v of_o those_o that_o labour_n in_o the_o gospel_n say_v the_o workman_n be_v worthy_a of_o his_o hire_n and_o that_o the_o apostle_n scruple_v not_o to_o say_v he_o receive_v wage_n according_o i_o tell_v he_o i_o take_v hire_v or_o receive_v wage_n for_o preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n but_o do_v not_o preach_v for_o it_o do_v not_o make_v that_o the_o end_n of_o my_o
