unto_o he_o if_o in_o this_o case_n we_o say_v a_o heathen_a writer_n see_v this_o and_o why_o shall_v not_o we_o thus_o we_o use_v they_o aright_o second_o christ_n receive_v not_o man_n testimony_n john_n 5._o ground_n 34._o and_o he_o give_v the_o reason_n ver_fw-la 36._o because_o i_o have_v a_o great_a witness_n than_o that_o of_o john_n if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o john_n bare_a record_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o the_o disciple_n be_v send_v forth_o as_o witness_n of_o he_o in_o all_o judea_n and_o samaria_n i_o answer_v they_o be_v not_o co-witness_n but_o declaratory_a witness_n as_o a_o praeco_n or_o cryer_n witness_v that_o he_o speak_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v suggest_v from_o the_o chief_a speaker_n and_o a_o scribe_n that_o he_o write_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o be_v dictate_v unto_o he_o from_o another_o and_o those_o which_o have_v be_v present_a at_o some_o thing_n that_o they_o relate_v nothing_o but_o what_o they_o have_v see_v and_o hear_v and_o this_o distinction_n of_o a_o declaratory_a witness_n i_o have_v from_o that_o place_n in_o john_n where_o it_o be_v say_v he_o confirm_v his_o witness_n by_o sign_n and_o wonder_n now_o none_o can_v be_v witness_n declaratory_a because_o they_o see_v not_o christ_n nor_o have_v their_o doctrine_n immediate_o from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n may_v i_o not_o say_v it_o be_v so_o interpret_v because_o they_o agree_v in_o it_o no_o the_o scripture_n receive_v no_o witness_n but_o his_o own_o as_o the_o light_n can_v be_v see_v but_o by_o the_o light_n so_o the_o word_n be_v not_o to_o be_v interpret_v but_o by_o the_o word_n to_o say_v this_o be_v the_o sense_n because_o augustine_n calvin_n and_o other_o writer_n say_v so_o it_o be_v not_o reason_n enough_o if_o we_o will_v give_v a_o sense_n it_o must_v be_v because_o the_o literal_a sense_n be_v so_o second_o because_o the_o sense_n of_o it_o agree_v with_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n three_o because_o it_o be_v answerable_a to_o the_o analogy_n of_o faith_n to_o this_o restraint_n there_o be_v this_o liberty_n though_o the_o word_n receive_v not_o the_o witness_n yet_o the_o man_n that_o deliver_v it_o may_v so_o amos_n in_o the_o 11._o chapter_n use_v a_o external_a argument_n when_o he_o will_v evidence_n that_o he_o be_v a_o true_a prophet_n he_o use_v this_o witness_n ver_fw-la 14._o i_o be_v a_o herdsman_n and_o the_o lord_n take_v i_o as_o i_o follow_v the_o flock_n so_o paul_n gal._n 2._o 9_o cephas_n and_o john_n give_v to_o i_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o fellowship_n so_o in_o preach_v though_o the_o word_n need_v no_o witness_n yet_o the_o man_n that_o preach_v it_o may_v and_o that_o first_o in_o case_n of_o partiality_n if_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o point_n be_v such_o that_o give_v suspicion_n of_o partiality_n as_o in_o a_o point_n of_o controversy_n we_o may_v allege_v these_o that_o be_v not_o partial_a as_o for_o the_o supremacy_n of_o the_o pope_n when_o they_o allege_v that_o place_n on_o this_o rock_n will_v i_o build_v my_o church_n if_o we_o be_v think_v partial_a do_v allege_v augustine_n who_o live_v before_o the_o pope_n challenge_v to_o himself_o universal_a authority_n and_o prove_v that_o by_o this_o rock_n be_v mean_v this_o profession_n we_o use_v they_o aright_o second_o if_o the_o person_n be_v suspect_v of_o novelty_n he_o may_v produce_v a_o author_n to_o show_v that_o what_o he_o say_v be_v not_o new_a but_o that_o which_o be_v use_v before_o this_o reason_n augustine_n give_v why_o he_o use_v cyrill_n and_o optatus_n in_o his_o book_n against_o the_o pelagian_n not_o to_o confirm_v but_o to_o show_v that_o he_o neither_o speak_v nor_o teach_v any_o other_o doctrine_n but_o that_o they_o do_v before_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o father_n in_o their_o sermon_n do_v not_o quote_v they_o and_o well_o be_v it_o if_o those_o that_o follow_v they_o so_o much_o in_o other_o thing_n will_v follow_v they_o in_o this_o but_o in_o case_n of_o controversy_n so_o they_o do_v and_o that_o with_o this_o caution_n to_o show_v that_o it_o be_v no_o new_a doctrine_n they_o teach_v so_o we_o may_v show_v that_o we_o teach_v no_o new_a thing_n not_o only_o by_o modern_a writer_n but_o also_o by_o ancient_a three_o in_o case_n of_o singularity_n to_o remove_v that_o we_o may_v produce_v the_o confession_n of_o

and_o geography_n in_o explication_n of_o daniel_n week_n against_o the_o jew_n if_o we_o produce_v author_n to_o show_v how_o many_o king_n of_o persia_n there_o be_v how_o long_o they_o reign_v we_o use_v they_o aright_o three_o the_o three_o ground_n be_v take_v from_o the_o office_n of_o a_o minister_n a_o minister_n as_o a_o minister_n ought_v only_o to_o use_v ground_n god_n word_n not_o

therefore_o to_o this_o there_o be_v this_o liberty_n that_o although_o a_o man_n do_v that_o not_o as_o he_o be_v a_o minister_n yet_o if_o in_o preach_v some_o passage_n require_v it_o he_o may_v speak_v from_o man_n to_o man_n and_o fight_v with_o carnal_a weapon_n true_a it_o be_v that_o when_o a_o man_n confute_v with_o carnal_a and_o philosophical_a reason_n he_o shoot_v with_o their_o

with_o intimation_n that_o it_o be_v a_o external_a argument_n lest_o those_o that_o hear_v it_o mistake_v it_o 2._o this_o observe_v a_o minister_n may_v lay_v aside_o the_o person_n of_o a_o
