interpreter_n he_o will_v never_o have_v cause_v saint_n paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o command_v we_o to_o obey_v our_o pastor_n who_o he_o have_v place_v to_o rule_v over_o we_o and_o say_v he_o submit_v yourselves_o 13.17_o heb._n 13.17_o for_o they_o watch_v for_o your_o sol_n and_o shall_v give_v a_o account_n for_o you_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o this_o text_n i●_n not_o blot_v out_o by_o all_o self-conceited_a people_n or_o that_o they_o do_v not_o deny_v it_o to_o be_v good_a scripture_n as_o they_o do_v many_o other_o place_n for_o if_o as_o st._n paul_n say_v here_o we_o must_v obey_v our_o pastor_n that_o be_v those_o that_o teach_v the_o true_a faith_n of_o god_n church_n why_o then_o we_o must_v forsake_v our_o own_o fancy_n in_o expound_v hard_a place_n of_o scripture_n because_o god_n have_v give_v it_o in_o their_o charge_n to_o do_v that_o and_o put_v we_o into_o their_o charge_n too_o to_o be_v guide_v by_o they_o for_o say_v the_o text_n submit_v to_o they_o and_o how_o do_v we_o that_o when_o we_o scorn_v they_o and_o submit_v to_o none_o but_o our_o own_o will_n quite_o contrary_a to_o god_n holy_a word_n which_o one_o day_n will_v be_v the_o only_a witness_n against_o such_o kind_n of_o man_n and_o since_o saint_n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o watch_v over_o our_o soul_n and_o shall_v give_v a_o account_n for_o we_o who_o be_v it_o but_o those_o that_o be_v blind_a do_v not_o see_v that_o we_o be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o submit_v to_o their_o judgement_n but_o the_o common_a peevish_a objection_n by_o many_o people_n be_v shall_v i_o pin_v my_o faith_n upon_o any_o man_n sleeve_n or_o can_v i_o know_v and_o understand_v the_o bible_n myself_o it_o be_v plain_a enough_o and_o thus_o poor_a soul_n be_v miserable_o cheat_v by_o the_o subtlety_n of_o satan_n for_o this_o snare_n catch_v thousand_o for_o it_o be_v the_o very_a same_o that_o catch_v our_o first_o parent_n for_o he_o make_v they_o believe_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v as_o wise_a as_o god_n 5._o gen._n 3._o ver_fw-la 5._o to_o know_v good_a and_o evil_a and_o so_o he_o lead_v these_o kind_n of_o man_n to_o their_o desruction_n by_o tell_v they_o they_o may_v be_v as_o wise_a as_o their_o pastor_n if_o they_o read_v the_o bible_n they_o shall_v know_v the_o meaning_n as_o well_o as_o they_o and_o so_o these_o hellish_a suggestion_n pass_v currant_n with_o they_o for_o the_o spirit_n that_o tell_v they_o the_o meaning_n of_o all_o for_o the_o devil_n well_o know_v that_o if_o he_o possess_v any_o with_o self-conceit_n he_o have_v do_v his_o work_n and_o now_o i_o have_v discover_v this_o great_a abuse_n that_o be_v put_v upon_o many_o man_n i_o will_v prosecute_v the_o remedy_n and_o declare_v what_o we_o be_v best_o to_o be_v take_v to_o know_v those_o hard_a place_n in_o scripture_n and_o the_o true_a sense_n of_o they_o first_o we_o be_v to_o renounce_v our_o own_o judgement_n which_o may_v easy_o deceive_v we_o and_o resign_v ourselves_o to_o god_n church_n which_o can_v for_o since_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o god_n ever_o have_v in_o the_o world_n a_o visible_a church_n and_o that_o this_o church_n can_v not_o err_v as_o i_o have_v prove_v before_o because_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o guider_n of_o it_o what_o better_a way_n can_v any_o man_n possible_o devise_v then_o by_o submit_v his_o faith_n to_o god_n church_n for_o if_o we_o do_v so_o we_o do_v what_o god_n command_v we_o and_o then_o we_o discharge_v our_o duty_n which_o if_o they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o visible_a government_n of_o it_o teach_v we_o any_o thing_n that_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o do_v they_o shall_v answer_v it_o it_o to_o god_n and_o not_o we_o for_o we_o be_v in_o their_o charge_n and_o they_o must_v give_v a_o account_n for_o we_o as_o st._n paul_n before_o tell_v we_o and_o let_v any_o man_n in_o reason_n judge_n if_o there_o be_v no_o command_n for_o it_o by_o god_n whether_o it_o be_v not_o more_o secure_a to_o stand_v to_o the_o uniform_a judgement_n of_o one_o hundred_o thousand_o grave_a doctor_n in_o god_n church_n which_o all_o agree_v in_o one_o exposition_n of_o the_o bible_n now_o and_o with_o all_o that_o have_v go_v before_o that_o be_v of_o the_o same_o church_n then_o with_o their_o own_o private_a spirit_n or_o to_o rely_v upon_o those_o that_o can_v agree_v among_o themselves_o but_o be_v ein_fw-mi continual_a contest_v one_o with_o another_o and_o for_o our_o further_a assurance_n and_o security_n we_o shall_v have_v by_o resign_v ourselves_o to_o the_o church_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o as_o god_n church_n be_v guard_v by_o his_o power_n from_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n ever_o have_v any_o power_n over_o it_o so_o we_o as_o member_n of_o it_o can_v never_o fall_v from_o our_o faith_n as_o long_o as_o we_o be_v so_o resign_v for_o till_o then_o we_o be_v continual_o waver_v and_o unconstant_a in_o our_o mind_n as_o too_o many_o by_o experience_n find_v it_o true_a but_o when_o we_o be_v so_o settle_v we_o have_v perfect_a freedom_n to_o serve_v god_n in_o that_o second_o principle_n of_o christian_a religion_n which_o be_v good_a work_n i_o shall_v only_o add_v one_o thing_n to_o all_o serious_a people_n consideration_n that_o be_v why_o there_o be_v so_o many_o sort_n of_o bibles_n among_o protestant_n and_o all_o sectary_n and_o what_o their_o design_n be_v in_o it_o as_o for_o example_n some_o have_v all_o the_o book_n of_o scripture_n and_o some_o leave_n out_o the_o apocraphy_n as_o they_o call_v it_o some_o have_v content_n to_o their_o chapter_n and_o some_o have_v not_o and_o every_o translation_n differ_v in_o a_o thousand_o place_n at_o the_o least_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v clear_a to_o those_o that_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o be_v cheat_v in_o their_o soul_n because_o every_o translator_n make_v they_o dance_v after_o his_o pipe_n that_o be_v the_o bible_n he_o translate_v shall_v be_v sure_a to_o favour_v his_o pernicious_a opinion_n and_o be_v tax_v with_o it_o they_o all_o cry_n the_o meaning_n be_v the_o same_o but_o i_o will_v demand_v of_o those_o presumptuous_a person_n how_o they_o dare_v to_o alter_v the_o scripture_n either_o by_o add_v or_o diminish_v since_o there_o be_v a_o curse_n pronounce_v against_o they_o that_o do_v 19_o rev._n 22._o v._n 18_o 19_o by_o god_n himself_o for_o since_o we_o be_v all_o surek_n that_o the_o first_o bible_n that_o we_o have_v for_o our_o instruction_n 2._o deut._n 4._o v._o 2._o be_v write_v by_o the_o inspiration_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v it_o not_o a_o high_a presumption_n for_o any_o man_n to_o vary_v from_o that_o and_o then_o pretend_v that_o the_o meaning_n be_v the_o same_o when_o many_o time_n the_o alter_n of_o one_o letter_n mar_v the_o sense_n of_o a_o whole_a sentence_n much_o more_o when_o they_o alter_v a_o word_n nay_o sentence_n themselves_o to_o work_v their_o own_o design_n as_o if_o what_o god_n ordain_v at_o first_o have_v need_v to_o be_v correct_v by_o their_o wisdom_n by_o which_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o if_o every_o heretic_n can_v have_v his_o will_n he_o will_v trust_v out_o of_o scripture_n all_o place_n that_o make_v against_o his_o principle_n and_o yet_o it_o will_v with_o they_o be_v as_o good_a scripture_n as_o any_o and_o then_o to_o interpret_v that_o by_o their_o own_o private_a spirit_n must_v needs_o bring_v strange_a confusion_n both_o in_o the_o know_v which_o be_v the_o true_a word_n of_o god_n and_o what_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v if_o we_o consult_v with_o holy_a david_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o he_o apprehend_v more_o difficulty_n in_o know_v the_o word_n of_o god_n than_o these_o kind_n of_o man_n do_v who_o say_v give_v i_o understanding_n 34._o psal_n 119._o v._n 34._o o_o god_n and_o i_o will_v search_v thy_o law_n sure_o he_o be_v as_o wise_a as_o any_o that_o pretend_v so_o much_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o so_o much_o as_o search_v into_o those_o mystery_n without_o particular_a assistance_n from_o god_n so_o we_o read_v that_o the_o eunuch_n which_o be_v a_o man_n of_o great_a authority_n under_o the_o queen_n of_o candice_n and_o so_o consequent_o of_o great_a knowledge_n yet_o when_o saint_n philip_n the_o apostle_n ask_v he_o whether_o he_o understand_v what_o he_o read_v out_o of_o isaiah_n concern_v christ_n he_o answer_v how_o can_v i_o 31._o act_n 8.30_o 31._o except_o some_o man_n shall_v guide_v i_o and_o than_o philip_n who_o charge_n it_o be_v declare_v the_o meaning_n to_o he_o by_o which_o we_o may_v see_v that_o he_o though_o a_o great_a man_n be_v not_o so_o presumptuous_a to_o interpret_v scripture_n of_o himself_o as_o many_o do_v
