have_v do_v against_o the_o child_n of_o reuben_n gad_n and_o manasses_n for_o their_o suspect_a apostasy_n and_o defection_n from_o god_n and_o the_o whole_a tribe_n do_v in_o very_a deed_n execute_v that_o sharp_a judgement_n against_o the_o tribe_n of_o benjamin_n for_o a_o less_o offence_n then_o for_o idolatry_n and_o the_o same_o aught_o to_o be_v one_o wheresoever_o christ_n jesus_n and_o his_o evangell_n be_v so_o receive_v in_o any_o realm_n province_n or_o city_n that_o the_o magistrate_n and_o people_n have_v solemn_o avow_v and_o promise_v to_o defend_v the_o same_o as_o under_z

by_o common_a oath_n be_v banish_v from_o that_o realm_n but_o because_o i_o can_v at_o this_o present_n discuss_v this_o argument_n as_o it_o appertain_v i_o be_o compel_v to_o omit_v it_o to_o better_a opportunity_n and_o so_o return_v to_o your_o honour_n i_o say_v that_o if_o you_o confess_v yourselves_o baptize_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n as_o of_o necessity_n you_o must_v confess_v that_o the_o care_n of_o religion_n do_v appertain_v to_o your_o charge_n and_o if_o you_o know_v that_o in_o your_o hand_n god_n have_v put_v the_o sword_n for_o the_o cause_n above_o express_v then_o can_v you_o not_o deny_v but_o that_o the_o punishment_n of_o obstinate_a and_o malapert_a idolater_n such_o as_o all_o your_o bishop_n be_v do_v appertain_v to_o your_o office_n if_o after_o

they_o be_v exempt_v and_o that_o by_o consent_n of_o counsel_n and_o emperouts_n from_o all_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o temporalty_n and_o second_o when_o they_o be_v convince_v of_o manifest_a

reform_v although_o they_o be_v corrupt_v but_o with_o process_n of_o time_n they_o promise_v to_o take_v order_n but_o in_o few_o word_n i_o answer_v note_n that_o no_o privilege_n grant_v against_o

be_v that_o idolater_n murderer_n false_a teacher_n and_o blasphemer_n shall_v be_v exempt_v from_o punishment_n as_o before_o be_v declare_v and_o therefore_o in_o vain_a it_o be_v that_o they_o

the_o sober_a and_o godly_a reader_n but_o yet_o to_o the_o end_n that_o they_o may_v further_o see_v their_o own_o confusion_n and_o that_o your_o honour_n may_v the_o better_o understand_v what_o you_o ought_v to_o do_v in_o so_o manifest_a a_o corruption_n and_o defection_n from_o god_n i_o ask_v of_o they_o what_o assurance_n they_o have_v of_o this_o their_o immunity_n exemption_n or_o

a_o great_a sin_n thus_o i_o say_v do_v moses_n call_v aaron_n and_o accuse_v he_o of_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o whole_a people_n and_o yet_o he_o perfect_o understand_v that_o god_n have_v

but_o neither_o can_v his_o office_n nor_o dignity_n exempt_v he_o from_o judgement_n when_o he_o have_v offend_v if_o any_o object_n aaron_n at_o that_o time_n be_v not_o anoint_v and_o therefore_o be_v he_o subject_a to_o moses_n i_o have_v answer_v that_o moses_n be_v teach_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n do_v perfect_o understand_v to_o what_o dignity_n aaron_n be_v appoint_v and_o yet_o he_o fear_v not_o to_o call_v he_o in_o judgement_n and_o to_o compel_v he_o to_o make_v answer_n for_o his_o wicked_a fact_n but_o if_o this_o answer_n do_v not_o suffice_v yet_o shall_v the_o holy_a ghost_n witness_v further_o in_o the_o matter_n solomon_n remove_v from_o honour_n abiathar_n be_v the_o high_a priest_n and_o command_v he_o to_o cease_v from_o all_o function_n and_o to_o live_v as_o a_o private_a man_n now_o if_o the_o unction_n do_v exempt_v the_o priest_n from_o jurisdiction_n of_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n solomon_n do_v offend_v and_o injure_a abiathar_n for_o he_o be_v

that_o he_o do_v escape_v the_o present_a death_n which_o by_o his_o conspiracy_n he_o have_v deserve_v if_o any_o yet_o reason_n that_o abiathar_n be_v no_o otherwise_o subject_a to_o the_o

reason_n so_o require_v i_o that_o every_o man_n consider_v that_o the_o same_o god_n who_o pronounce_v sentence_n against_o eli_n and_o his_o house_n notewell_n have_v pronounce_v also_o that_o

i_o say_v thus_o authorize_v by_o god_n first_o do_v excommunicate_a jeremy_n for_o that_o he_o do_v preach_v otherwise_o then_o do_v the_o common_a sort_n of_o prophet_n in_o jerusalem_n and_o last_o

you_o have_v hear_v a_o sentence_n of_o death_n pronounce_v against_o i_o by_o those_o who_o lip_n ought_v not_o to_o speak_v deceit_n because_o they_o be_v sanctify_v and_o appoint_v by_o god_n

to_o the_o true_a service_n of_o god_n from_o the_o which_o you_o be_v all_o decline_v shall_v suffer_v the_o death_n because_o that_o my_o enemy_n do_v so_o pronounce_v sentence_n i_o stand_v in_o your_o presence_n who_o god_n have_v make_v prince_n your_o power_n be_v above_o their_o tyranny_n before_o you_o do_v i_o expose_v my_o cause_n i_o be_o in_o your_o hand_n and_o can_v resist_v to_o

the_o prophet_n of_o god_n be_v condemn_v by_o the_o priest_n and_o by_o the_o prophet_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n do_v seek_v aid_n support_v and_o defence_n at_o the_o prince_n and_o temporal_a

that_o he_o teach_v no_o doctrine_n which_o god_n before_o have_v not_o pronounce_v in_o his_o law_n defend_v that_o he_o desire_v their_o conversion_n to_o god_n continual_o call_v upon_o they_o to_o
