well_o appear_v unto_o they_o first_o that_o there_o be_v great_a inequality_n of_o gift_n between_o they_o for_o the_o apostle_n have_v far_o great_a gift_n than_o any_o of_o the_o prophet_n second_o that_o there_o be_v great_a odds_o in_o the_o success_n of_o their_o ministry_n for_o the_o apostle_n do_v much_o more_o good_a than_o the_o prophet_n yet_o they_o shall_v not_o envy_v nor_o disdain_v one_o another_o but_o rejoice_v together_o take_v comfort_v one_o in_o another_o the_o prophet_n shall_v rejoice_v to_o see_v what_o good_a the_o apostle_n have_v do_v though_o they_o can_v not_o do_v so_o much_o themselves_o and_o the_o apostle_n shall_v rejoice_v to_o see_v what_o good_a the_o prophet_n have_v do_v though_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o themselves_o have_v do_v from_o hence_o i_o say_v we_o may_v learn_v this_o doctrine_n that_o there_o ought_v to_o be_v no_o emulation_n among_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n but_o how_o great_a inequality_n soever_o 5._o there_o be_v in_o their_o gift_n or_o in_o the_o fruit_n of_o their_o labour_n they_o ought_v to_o love_n &_o esteem_v one_o of_o another_o and_o one_o to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o good_a that_o be_v do_v by_o another_o for_o this_o we_o shall_v need_v no_o other_o proof_n than_o the_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o that_o be_v master-builder_n and_o who_o example_n we_o be_v command_v to_o imitate_v and_o follow_v phil._n 3._o 17._o brethren_n be_v follower_n of_o i_o three_o thing_n we_o will_v brief_o observe_v in_o their_o example_n that_o be_v very_o fit_a to_o confirm_v this_o doctrine_n 1._o that_o though_o they_o do_v not_o only_o far_o excel_v all_o other_o minister_n in_o gift_n and_o in_o the_o fruit_n of_o their_o labour_n but_o also_o be_v above_o they_o in_o call_v and_o function_n and_o have_v a_o high_a degree_n of_o ministry_n than_o they_o which_o no_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n now_o have_v yet_o they_o be_v wont_a to_o esteem_v reverent_o of_o the_o mean_a faithful_a minister_n in_o the_o church_n and_o to_o account_v of_o they_o as_o of_o their_o fellow_n and_o equal_n so_o paul_n esteem_v not_o only_o of_o timââ¦thy_a and_o silas_n which_o be_v evangelist_n join_v they_o with_o he_o as_o his_o assistant_n in_o the_o write_n of_o sundry_a of_o his_o epistle_n 2._o cor._n 1._o 1._o phil._n 1._o 1._o col._n 1._o 1._o philem_n 1._o 1._o thess._n 1._o 1._o but_o even_o they_o that_o be_v but_o pastor_n a_o degree_n low_a than_o the_o other_o he_o call_v epaphroditus_n his_o compation_n in_o labour_n and_o fellow_n soldier_n phil._n 2._o 25._o epaphras_n tychicus_n clement_n and_o other_o his_o fellow-scruants_a and_o his_o fellowlabourer_n who_o name_n be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n col._n 1._o 7._o and_o 4._o 7._o phil._n 4._o 3._o 2._o they_o be_v not_o wont_a to_o speak_v of_o any_o faithful_a minister_n without_o signification_n of_o a_o special_a love_n and_o brotherly_a affection_n they_o do_v bear_v unto_o they_o so_o peter_n use_v the_o testimony_n of_o paul_n for_o confirmation_n of_o a_o point_n of_o doctrine_n call_v he_o his_o belove_a brother_n 2._o pet._n 3._o 15._o so_o paul_n call_v tychicus_n his_o dear_a brother_n ephes._n 6_o 21._o and_o epaphras_n his_o dear_a fellow-seruant_n col._n 1._o 7._o neither_o do_v he_o use_v these_o as_o word_n of_o course_n only_o 3._o they_o be_v wont_n to_o show_v great_a care_n of_o the_o credit_n of_o other_o minister_n which_o they_o speak_v and_o write_v of_o especial_o with_o their_o own_o people_n so_o peter_n speak_v reverent_o of_o paul_n and_o maintain_v the_o credit_n of_o his_o doctrine_n against_o some_o that_o cavel_v at_o it_o 2._o pet._n 3._o 15_o 16._o and_o paul_n speak_v of_o tychicus_n call_v he_o a_o faithful_a minister_n col._n 4._o 7._o so_o speak_v of_o epaphras_n to_o the_o colossian_n where_o it_o seem_v he_o be_v a_o pastor_n or_o a_o evangelist_n he_o say_v of_o he_o that_o he_o be_v for_o they_o a_o faithful_a minister_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o they_o may_v the_o better_a respect_n he_o he_o give_v this_o testimony_n of_o he_o further_o that_o he_o be_v earnest_a with_o god_n for_o they_o in_o prayer_n yea_o i_o bear_v he_o record_v say_v he_o that_o he_o have_v a_o great_a zeal_n for_o you_o so_o when_o timothy_n ministry_n be_v to_o be_v employ_v among_o the_o philippian_n see_v how_o he_o commend_v he_o to_o they_o phil._n 2._o 20._o 22._o i_o have_v no_o man_n like_o mind_a who_o will_v faithful_o care_v for_o your_o matter_n but_o you_o know_v the_o proof_n of_o he_o that_o as_o a_o son_n with_o the_o father_n he_o have_v serve_v with_o i_o in_o the_o gospel_n and_o speak_v to_o they_o of_o epaphroditus_n who_o it_o seem_v be_v their_o pastor_n he_o commend_v he_o for_o the_o great_a care_n he_o have_v of_o they_o phil._n 2._o 26._o he_o long_v after_o you_o all_o and_o be_v full_a of_o heaviness_n because_o you_o have_v hear_v that_o he_o have_v be_v sick_a and_o when_o he_o have_v say_v he_o will_v therefore_o send_v he_o to_o they_o speedy_o he_o add_v verse_n 29._o receive_v he_o therefore_o in_o the_o lord_n with_o all_o gladness_n and_o make_v much_o of_o such_o see_v how_o careful_a he_o be_v to_o maintain_v and_o increase_v the_o credit_n of_o good_a minister_n among_o their_o own_o people_n and_o how_o far_o he_o be_v from_o engross_a all_o credit_n and_o esteem_v with_o the_o people_n into_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o this_o mind_n be_v in_o our_o saviour_n himself_o who_o speak_v to_o the_o people_n that_o have_v be_v johns_n hearer_n and_o do_v admire_v he_o too_o much_o he_o enter_v into_o a_o large_a commendation_n of_o john_n and_o of_o his_o ministry_n matth._n 11._o 7._o to_o 15._o the_o reason_n of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v principal_o two_o 1._o for_o the_o call_n and_o work_n sake_n wherein_o we_o be_v all_o employ_v let_v a_o man_n reason_n so_o account_v of_o we_o as_o of_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o steward_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n 1._o cor._n 4._o 1._o esteem_v they_o very_o high_o in_o love_n for_o their_o work_n sake_n 1._o thes._n 5._o 13._o if_o timothy_n come_v see_v that_o he_o may_v be_v with_o you_o without_o fear_n lack_n to_o his_o safety_n from_o the_o practice_n of_o any_o adversary_n and_o provide_v for_o his_o comfort_n every_o way_n for_o he_o work_v the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o i_o also_o do_v let_v no_o man_n therefore_o despise_v he_o though_o he_o be_v a_o young_a man_n 1._o cor._n 16._o 10_o 11._o which_o place_n do_v not_o bind_v the_o people_n only_o but_o as_o also_o to_o love_v and_o esteem_v one_o of_o another_o 2._o because_o this_o will_v great_o strengthen_v the_o credit_n of_o our_o ministry_n with_o the_o people_n and_o cause_v they_o to_o regard_v we_o and_o our_o doctrine_n the_o more_o when_o they_o shall_v see_v agreement_n and_o love_n in_o one_o of_o we_o towards_o another_o that_o it_o will_v great_o grace_v our_o ministry_n we_o may_v see_v ps._n 133._o 1._o behold_v how_o comely_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v for_o brethren_n to_o dwell_v together_o in_o unity_n that_o be_v to_o hold_v society_n and_o brotherly_a fellowship_n among_o themselves_o and_o verse_n 2._o it_o be_v like_o the_o precious_a ointment_n upon_o the_o head_n that_o run_v down_o upon_o the_o beard_n even_o aaron_n beard_n that_o run_v down_o to_o the_o skirt_n of_o his_o garment_n so_o isaiah_n 52._o when_o he_o say_v verse_n 7._o how_o beautiful_a upon_o the_o mountain_n be_v the_o foot_n of_o he_o that_o declare_v and_o publish_v peace_n and_o declare_v good_a thing_n and_o publish_v salvation_n he_o add_v as_o a_o reason_n that_o make_v their_o foot_n so_o beautiful_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n people_n verse_n 8._o thy_o watchman_n shall_v lift_v up_o their_o voice_n and_o shout_n together_o that_o be_v they_o shall_v agree_v and_o consent_v together_o they_o shall_v have_v but_o one_o voice_n and_o that_o it_o will_v not_o only_o make_v our_o ministry_n more_o gracious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o god_n people_n but_o also_o more_o fruitful_a and_o profitable_a to_o they_o that_o be_v as_o plain_a in_o the_o same_o place_n psal._n 133._o 1._o where_o he_o do_v not_o only_o say_v it_o be_v a_o comely_a and_o pleasant_a but_o a_o good_a and_o profitable_a thing_n for_o brethren_n to_o dwell_v even_o together_o and_o verse_n 3._o he_o express_v the_o fruit_n of_o it_o thus_o it_o be_v as_o the_o dew_n of_o hermon_n that_o fall_v upon_o the_o mountain_n of_o zion_n and_o when_o the_o apostle_n describe_v the_o profit_n and_o power_n of_o pprophecy_n that_o be_v of_o the_o true_a preach_v of_o the_o word_n how_o it_o will_v make_v a_o infidel_n and_o ignorant_a man_n fall_v down_o on_o his_o
