the_o apostle_n will_v not_o only_o have_v the_o rule_n here_o contain_v not_o tread_v under_o the_o foot_n or_o break_v in_o piece_n but_o he_o will_v not_o have_v they_o so_o much_o as_o in_o any_o one_o small_a point_n or_o speck_n neglect_v but_o i_o see_v how_o m._n doctor_n will_v wipe_v away_o all_o this_o and_o say_v that_o these_o thing_n or_o some_o of_o they_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v thus_o necessary_o and_o precise_o until_o there_o be_v christian_n prince_n and_o peace_n in_o the_o church_n but_o the_o print_n be_v deep_a than_o that_o it_o will_v be_v so_o wash_v away_o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v what_o he_o say_v in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o sentence_n where_o he_o charge_v timothe_n and_o in_o he_o all_o that_z he_o shall_v keep_v all_o these_o thing_n not_o until_o the_o time_n of_o peace_n or_o to_o the_o time_n of_o christian_a prince_n but_o even_o until_o the_o come_n or_o appear_v of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n which_o be_v as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n last_v and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o the_o signor_n or_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n be_v a_o part_n of_o that_o order_n and_o government_n of_o the_o church_n which_o s._n paul_n appoint_v in_o this_o epistle_n be_v necessary_a perpetual_a and_o by_o no_o mean_n to_o be_v change_v so_o that_o we_o have_v not_o only_o now_o the_o example_n of_o all_o the_o primitive_a church_n which_o ought_v to_o move_v we_o if_o there_o be_v no_o commandment_n but_o we_o have_v also_o a_o straight_a commandment_n i_o say_v the_o only_a example_n ought_v to_o move_v we_o for_o what_o way_n can_v we_o safe_a follow_v then_z the_o common_a high_a way_n beaten_z and_o tread_v by_o the_o step_n of_o all_o the_o apostle_n and_o of_o all_o the_o church_n thing_n also_o grow_v and_o be_v preserve_v by_o the_o same_o mean_n by_o the_o which_o they_o be_v engender_v why_o shall_v we_o think_v but_o that_o the_o church_n now_o will_v prosper_v by_o that_o government_n whereby_o it_o first_o come_v up_o but_o i_o say_v we_o have_v not_o only_o the_o example_n of_o the_o church_n but_o we_o have_v also_o commandment_n and_o straight_o charge_v to_o keep_v this_o office_n of_o elder_n and_o ancient_n in_o the_o church_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o only_a rashness_n in_o leave_v the_o way_n that_o the_o apostle_n and_o church_n by_o the_o apostle_n advise_v have_v go_v but_o disobedience_n also_o to_o depart_v from_o their_o commandment_n and_o to_o maintain_v and_o defend_v that_o we_o may_v do_v so_o i_o can_v almost_o geve_v it_o no_o gentle_a name_n than_o rebellion_n now_o i_o will_v come_v to_o master_n doctor_n reason_n which_o he_o have_v in_o the_o hundred_o and_o fourteen_o and_o a_o hundred_o and_o fifteen_o page_n where_o he_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v elder_n in_o every_o church_n in_o time_n past_a but_o say_v that_o it_o ought_v not_o now_o so_o to_o be_v for_o say_v he_o the_o time_n alter_v the_o government_n and_o it_o can_v not_o be_v govern_v in_o the_o time_n of_o prosperity_n as_z in_o the_o time_n of_o persecution_n under_o a_o christian_n prince_n as_o under_o a_o tyrant_n thus_o he_o say_v but_o show_v no_o reason_n bring_v no_o proof_n declare_v not_o how_o nor_o why_o prosperity_n will_v not_o bear_v the_o elder_n as_o well_o as_o persecution_n neither_o why_o they_o may_v not_o be_v under_o a_o godly_a prince_n as_o well_o as_o under_o a_o tyrant_n unless_o this_o be_v a_o reason_n that_o because_o the_o godly_a prince_n do_v nourish_v the_o church_n as_o a_o civil_a magistrate_n therefore_o the_o ancient_n may_v not_o nourish_v it_o as_o ecclesiastical_a overseer_n now_o see_v master_n doctor_n can_v show_v we_o no_o cause_n why_o they_o may_v not_o as_o well_o be_v now_o as_z in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostle_n as_o well_o under_o a_o christian_n prince_n as_o under_o a_o tyrant_n i_o will_v show_v he_o that_o although_o they_o be_v always_o necessary_a yet_o there_o be_v better_a cause_n why_o they_o shall_v rather_o be_v now_o then_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n great_a necessity_n under_o a_o christian_n prince_n then_z under_o a_o tyrant_n first_o of_o all_o in_o the_o apostle_n time_n it_o be_v know_v that_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n discretion_n knowledge_n endure_a of_o travail_n be_v pour_v forth_o more_o plentiful_o than_o ever_o they_o be_v either_o before_o or_o shall_v be_v after_o by_o reason_n whereof_o the_o pastor_n and_o minister_n of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v then_o be_v i_o speak_v general_o and_o of_o the_o estate_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n better_a furnish_v with_o the_o gift_n needful_a for_o their_o mynistery_n then_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o these_o day_n whereupon_o i_o conclude_v that_o if_o the_o aid_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o pastor_n by_o the_o elder_n be_v think_v necessary_a by_o the_o apostle_n in_o those_o time_n when_o the_o minister_n be_v so_o well_o and_o so_o rich_o replenish_v with_o such_o gift_n much_o more_o be_v that_o aid_n and_o assistance_n meet_v for_o the_o minister_n of_o these_o day_n wherein_o their_o gift_n of_o discretion_n and_o knowledge_n and_o diligence_n be_v not_o so_o plentiful_a for_o if_o they_o who_o eye_n sight_n be_v so_o clear_a to_o perceive_v who_o hand_n so_o nimble_a to_o execute_v have_v need_v for_o their_o aid_v of_o other_o eye_n &_o other_o hand_n then_o the_o minister_n now_o who_o eye_n be_v dim_a and_o hand_n heavy_a than_o they_o be_v have_v much_o more_o need_n of_o this_o aid_n than_o they_o have_v again_o if_o s._n paul_n do_v charge_v the_o persecute_a &_o therefore_o poor_a church_n 17._o with_o the_o finede_n and_o provide_v for_o the_o senior_n in_o every_o church_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o epistle_n to_o timothe_n where_o he_o say_v that_o elder_n which_o rule_v well_o be_v worthy_a double_a honour_n whereby_o he_o signify_v a_o plentiful_a reward_v and_o such_o as_o may_v be_v full_o sufficient_a for_o they_o and_o their_o household_n as_o when_o he_o bid_v that_o the_o widow_n which_o serve_v the_o church_n in_o attend_v upon_o the_o sick_a and_o upon_o the_o stranger_n shall_v be_v honour_v that_o be_v have_v that_o wherewith_o she_o may_v honest_o and_o sober_o live_v if_o i_o say_v saint_n paul_n will_v charge_v the_o church_n then_o with_o maintain_v the_o elder_n which_o be_v poor_a be_v not_o sometime_o able_a to_o live_v without_o some_o relief_n from_o the_o church_n because_o they_o be_v compel_v oftentimes_o to_o leave_v their_o own_o affair_n to_o wait_v of_o the_o affair_n of_o the_o church_n how_o much_o more_o ought_v there_o now_o to_o be_v senior_n when_o the_o church_n be_v in_o peace_n and_o therefore_o not_o so_o poor_a and_o when_o there_o may_v be_v choose_v such_o for_o the_o most_o part_n throughout_o the_o realm_n as_o be_v able_a to_o live_v without_o charge_v the_o church_n any_o whit_n as_o the_o practice_n of_o these_o day_n do_v manifest_o declare_v and_o if_o s._n paul_n that_o be_v so_o desirous_a to_o have_v the_o gospel_n adapanon_fw-mi that_o 18._o be_v free_a and_o without_o charge_n as_o much_o as_o be_v
