we_o gather_v the_o needfulness_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o our_o direction_n there_o be_v not_o a_o little_a difference_n betwixt_o myself_o and_o my_o antagonist_n about_o this_o scripture_n that_o

seeker_n may_v take_v up_o my_o antagonist_n answer_v as_o useful_a for_o they_o and_o against_o he_o and_o his_o brethren_n be_v i_o a_o profess_a seeker_n i_o shall_v show_v my_o skill_n in_o

consideration_n to_o convince_v his_o reader_n that_o those_o scatter_a but_o preach_v christian_n be_v not_o private_a person_n my_o opposer_n first_o oppose_v consideration_n you_o have_v pag._n 10._o at_o large_a express_v the_o sum_n be_v this_o w._n mr._n w._n it_o be_v probable_a if_o not_o certain_a that_o the_o apostle_n give_v they_o authority_n to_o preach_v and_o so_o they_o be_v not_o as_o lay_v man_n with_o u●_n private_a person_n answ_n what_o he_o by_o authority_n mean_n i_o know_v not_o if_o he_o will_v have_v we_o by_o his_o word_n understand_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v show_v to_o the_o scatter_a christian_n before_o their_o departure_n that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o lawful_a but_o also_o needful_a for_o they_o as_o they_o go_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n may_v be_v promote_v and_o enlarge_v i_o answer_v first_o it_o be_v i_o do_v not_o say_v must_v be_v suppose_v that_o the_o apostle_n give_v to_o the_o scatter_a christian_n such_o direction_n sith_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o hint_n at_o it_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o believe_v it_o from_o mere_o suppose_a supposition_n we_o can_v draw_v for_o faith_n sound_a conclusion_n second_o if_o it_o be_v allow_v yet_o the_o preach_n of_o private_a man_n now_o may_v not_o thence_o be_v deny_v for_o the_o apostle_n be_v in_o those_o day_n to_o believer_n instead_o of_o new_a testament_n scripture_n and_o therefore_o if_o it_o may_v be_v prove_v from_o their_o writing_n as_o i_o have_v in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o treatise_n that_o private_a man_n enjoy_v ability_n have_v authority_n to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o they_o have_v authority_n from_o their_o person_n immediate_o the_o second_o consideration_n which_o my_o antagonist_n give_v you_o have_v page_n 10._o and_o 11._o the_o sum_n whereof_o be_v this_o that_o if_o those_o scatter_a christian_n have_v not_o authority_n from_o the_o apostle_n w._n g._n w._n yet_o they_o may_v be_v put_v out_o of_o the_o condition_n of_o private_a person_n by_o immediate_a revelation_n answ_n the_o same_o answer_n will_v serve_v for_o this_o as_o for_o the_o former_a for_o revelation_n be_v to_o they_o instead_o of_o the_o apostle_n and_o so_o instead_o of_o write_a scripture_n wherefore_o if_o the_o saint_n now_o by_o revelation_n from_o the_o scripture_n do_v understand_v that_o they_o may_v from_o ability_n proceed_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o they_o do_v so_o understand_v by_o revelation_n without_o the_o scripture_n the_o three_o consideration_n appear_v page_n 12._o which_o be_v in_o brief_a this_o all_o that_o be_v scatter_v be_v not_o private_a person_n w._n g._n w._n wherefore_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o none_o do_v preach_v but_o those_o that_o be_v public_a for_o if_o those_o that_o be_v private_a may_v preach_v than_o they_o may_v baptise_v also_o answ_n i_o shall_v not_o affirm_v that_o all_o who_o be_v scatter_v be_v private_a person_n for_o we_o read_v that_o philip_n the_o deacon_n be_v among_o they_o but_o that_o as_o they_o call_v they_o teach_v church-officer_n be_v with_o they_o can_v be_v prove_v for_o the_o apostle_n remain_v at_o jerusalem_n there_o be_v therefore_o no_o need_n to_o prove_v that_o other_o beside_o public_a person_n do_v preach_v when_o they_o do_v preach_v they_o be_v in_o a_o sense_n public_a enough_o but_o in_o another_o sense_n not_o public_a the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o who_o be_v scatter_v go_v about_o preach_v without_o make_v the_o least_o exception_n but_o if_o they_o may_v preach_v they_o may_v baptise_v also_o say_v my_o antagonist_n he_o have_v say_v it_o indeed_o and_o say_v it_o and_o double_o say_v it_o as_o if_o it_o be_v of_o no_o small_a force_n to_o convince_v we_o of_o the_o unlawfulnesse_n of_o private_a man_n preach_v who_o may_v baptise_v as_o well_o as_o who_o may_v be_v baptise_a be_v a_o thing_n in_o question_n what_o my_o judgement_n therein_o be_v i_o be_o not_o bind_v here_o to_o discover_v but_o let_v i_o a_o little_a reason_n with_o my_o antagonist_n sir_n by_o what_o good_a consequence_n will_v it_o follow_v that_o if_o private_a person_n may_v preach_v they_o may_v baptise_v also_o what_o be_v there_o no_o work_n peculiar_a to_o church-officer_n if_o preach_v be_v not_o if_o a_o private_a person_n may_v judge_v between_o other_o in_o matter_n of_o civil_a difference_n 6._o 1_o cor._n 6._o which_o be_v a_o magistrate_n work_v than_o a_o private_a person_n may_v lay_v fine_n and_o tax_n on_o the_o people_n which_o be_v another_o work_n belong_v to_o the_o magistrate_n be_v this_o not_o as_o good_a consequence_n as_o that_o of_o my_o antagonist_n but_o we_o say_v that_o officer_n have_v some_o work_n peculiar_a to_o they_o other_o work_n common_a to_o they_o with_o other_o and_o be_v not_o this_o as_o good_a consequenciall_n argue_v if_o private_a person_n may_v pray_v than_o they_o may_v baptise_v also_o see_v prayer_n be_v a_o work_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o minister_n office_n wherefore_o by_o my_o antagonist_n favour_n his_o consequence_n if_o it_o will_v follow_v will_v not_o be_v dangerous_a unless_o he_o can_v prove_v that_o baptise_v be_v peculiar_a to_o church_n officer_n nor_o consequential_a unless_o he_o can_v prove_v that_o preach_v be_v peculiar_a to_o they_o in_o office_n so_o much_o for_o the_o consideration_n w._n page_n 14._o mr._n w._n answ_n now_o my_o antagonist_n conceive_v further_a that_o if_o it_o be_v suppose_v that_o they_o who_o be_v scatter_v do_v preach_v be_v private_a person_n yet_o that_o will_v not_o justify_v our_o lay_n man_n preach_n because_o it_o can_v he_o prove_v that_o they_o preach_v at_o jerusalem_n but_o among_o a_o people_n who_o have_v never_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o gospel_n among_o they_o but_o our_o lay_a preacher_n teach_v where_o a_o true_a ministry_n be_v or_o may_v be_v have_v etc._n etc._n my_o antagonist_n have_v here_o much_o mistake_v the_o question_n for_o the_o question_n to_o which_o the_o minister_n make_v a_o answer_n to_o which_o through_o entreaty_n i_o make_v a_o reply_n be_v whither_o lay_v person_n a_o company_n be_v meet_v together_o may_v preach_v the_o word_n 2._o he_o have_v also_o gross_o mistake_v in_o his_o expression_n first_o in_o tell_v we_o that_o they_o exercise_v themselves_o in_o preach_v only_o where_o the_o sound_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o hear_v for_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o be_v scatter_v abroad_o throughout_o the_o region_n of_o judea_n and_o samaria_n which_o be_v place_n wherein_o they_o preach_v act._n 8._o but_o be_v not_o christ_n preach_v in_o judea_n read_v the_o gospel_n and_o they_o will_v inform_v you_o 2._o in_o that_o he_o make_v such_o a_o difference_n betwixt_o judea_n samaria_n and_o some_o place_n among_o we_o in_o respect_n of_o ministry_n i_o be_o sure_a some_o place_n among_o we_o have_v no_o minister_n and_o some_o other_o have_v false_a minister_n how_o judea_n can_v be_v for_o minister_n in_o a_o worse_a case_n i_o know_v not_o 3._o he_o

the_o second_o scripture_n the_o four_o and_o last_o scripture_n be_v the_o 1_o cor._n 14._o this_o chapter_n be_v full_a of_o difficulty_n and_o exceed_v hard_a to_o be_v understand_v man_n vary_v much_o in_o the_o exposition_n they_o give_v of_o it_o i_o shall_v therefore_o at_o this_o time_n only_o lie_v down_o one_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o private_a man_n preach_v from_o that_o chapter_n they_o who_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o pprophecy_n may_v prophesy_v but_o some_o private_a person_n may_v now_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o pprophecy_n therefore_o some_o private_a
