condemn_v sin_n in_o every_o man_n conscience_n and_o to_o be_v out_o of_o the_o ministry_n of_o god_n who_o be_v light_a and_o therefore_o though_o he_o think_v he_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v his_o call_n to_o this_o ministry_n of_o god_n i_o be_o sure_a he_o be_v mistake_v and_o his_o thought_n deceive_v he_o for_o that_o in_o his_o conscience_n which_o be_v of_o god_n shall_v testify_v to_o his_o face_n that_o he_o be_v a_o resister_n of_o it_o &_o walk_v contrary_a to_o it_o &_o to_o all_o who_o be_v come_v into_o the_o true_a fear_n of_o the_o lord_n he_o be_v know_v &_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o to_o some_o of_o you_o in_o who_o i_o know_v there_o be_v simple_a desire_n after_o god_n he_o be_v partly_o know_v and_o see_v and_o many_o of_o his_o practice_n i_o know_v you_o can_v own_v let_v that_o of_o god_n in_o your_o conscience_n speak_v yet_o nevertheless_o j.w._n have_v little_a reason_n to_o desire_v that_o day_n work_n to_o be_v bring_v to_o remembrance_n for_o though_o he_o spend_v much_o time_n to_o tell_v a_o story_n of_o his_o inclination_n to_o and_o qualification_n for_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n from_o his_o youth_n up_o after_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o he_o never_o find_v any_o of_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n boast_v for_o they_o always_o deny_v their_o former_a life_n which_o he_o call_v his_o inward_a call_n yet_o he_o tell_v we_o also_o of_o a_o outward_a call_n which_o be_v by_o man_n as_o be_v approve_v of_o by_o man_n and_o for_o all_o his_o inward_a qualification_n yet_o he_o attribute_v something_o to_o his_o humane_a art_n and_o learning_n of_o which_o though_o he_o speak_v slight_o seem_o yet_o he_o add_v it_o to_o all_o the_o rest_n as_o a_o help_n in_o the_o work_n and_o after_o all_o this_o large_a oration_n which_o he_o make_v declare_v how_o he_o be_v call_v to_o the_o ministry_n i_o leave_v it_o to_o you_o all_o who_o be_v there_o present_a to_o judge_v whether_o or_o no_o he_o do_v prove_v that_o his_o call_n to_o be_v according_a to_o the_o scripture_n &_o which_o of_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n do_v he_o instance_n or_o bring_v for_o a_o example_n that_o be_v so_o call_v though_o he_o profess_v that_o that_o shall_v be_v the_o rule_n to_o try_v both_o his_o and_z john_n perrot_n ministry_n by_o the_o discourse_n as_o i_o very_o well_o remember_v be_v much_o upon_o paul_n call_n who_o indeed_o be_v a_o able_a minister_n of_o christ_n and_o we_o find_v that_o although_o he_o be_v a_o man_n who_o be_v bring_v up_o at_o the_o foot_n of_o gamaliel_n yet_o in_o all_o his_o speak_n of_o his_o call_n to_o that_o work_n he_o never_o make_v mention_n of_o it_o any_o otherwise_o then_o declare_v it_o to_o be_v his_o former_a life_n wherein_o he_o be_v zealous_a in_o persecute_v the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o in_o his_o preach_v also_o all_o that_o wisdom_n be_v lay_v aside_o for_o when_o he_o come_v to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o come_v not_o with_o excellency_n of_o speech_n nor_o of_o wisdom_n nor_o with_o the_o entice_a word_n of_o man_n wisdom_n which_o be_v the_o world_n wisdom_n and_o if_o he_o will_v have_v boast_v thereof_o he_o have_v much_o to_o speak_v of_o read_v phil._n chap._n 3._o v._n 4_o 5_o 6_o 7_o 8._o yet_o all_o that_o which_o be_v gain_v to_o he_o former_o he_o count_v it_o loss_n for_o christ_n and_o for_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n jesus_n wherein_o his_o ministry_n stand_v neither_o will_v he_o at_o any_o time_n own_o his_o call_n or_o send_v to_o be_v of_o man_n or_o by_o man_n but_o by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o you_o may_v read_v gal._n 1.1_o and_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o most_o of_o his_o epistle_n though_o j.w._n that_o day_n do_v endeavour_v to_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v by_o man_n by_o act_n 13.1_o 2_o 3._o which_o be_v the_o place_n also_o he_o quote_v in_o his_o letter_n to_o i_o who_o ever_o can_v read_v that_o place_n with_o understanding_n will_v see_v it_o do_v not_o contradict_v paul_n saying_n he_o be_v a_o apostle_n not_o by_o man_n though_o it_o be_v always_o the_o priest_n work_v to_o make_v the_o scripture_n clash_v one_o against_o another_o that_o so_o they_o may_v get_v money_n of_o the_o people_n to_o reconcile_v they_o as_o they_o say_v by_o their_o moaning_n and_o interpretation_n but_o this_o be_v deceit_n and_o the_o scripture_n be_v true_a and_o agree_v in_o one_o be_v all_o give_v forth_o by_o one_o spirit_n which_o do_v not_o contradict_v itself_o and_o by_o no_o other_o spirit_n can_v they_o be_v read_v nor_o understand_v but_o to_o all_o other_o spirit_n be_v a_o parable_n seal_v it_o be_v there_o say_v that_o such_o and_o such_o who_o be_v in_o the_o church_n as_o they_o minister_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o fast_v the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v separate_a i_n barnabas_n and_o saul_n for_o the_o work_n whereunto_o i_o have_v call_v they_o here_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v call_v they_o and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n command_v the_o separation_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n send_v they_o away_o as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o four_o verse_n that_o they_o depart_v be_v send_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o this_o be_v one_o with_o what_o be_v write_v in_o the_o three_o verse_n but_o the_o unlearned_a wrest_v it_o for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n give_v order_n for_o their_o separation_n and_o also_o send_v they_o away_o and_o i_o will_v appeal_v to_o you_o all_o who_o be_v that_o day_n present_a do_v i_o w._n prove_v his_o call_n ●o_o be_v thus_o do_v he_o name_v any_o that_o be_v in_o the_o church_n that_o be_v prophet_n and_o teacher_n that_o minister_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o fast_v and_o as_o they_o do_v so_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v separate_v i_o james_n wood_n for_o the_o work_n whereunto_o i_o have_v call_v he_o he_o do_v not_o witness_v any_o such_o thing_n to_o we_o then_o yea_o and_o i_o question_n much_o whether_o his_o late_a ordination_n and_o send_v be_v according_o to_o that_o of_o paul_n and_o barnabas_n some_o of_o you_o perhaps_o may_v be_v present_a you_o can_v tell_v whether_o that_o day_n be_v spend_v in_o fast_v and_o pray_v or_o feast_v and_o pray_v and_o if_o you_o can_v read_v with_o the_o spirit_n i_o desire_n you_o to_o compare_v paul_n separation_n in_o act._n 13._o with_o j._n w._n his_o late_a separation_n i_o will_v ask_v whether_o those_o man_n who_o lay_v their_o hand_n on_o j._n w._n receive_v a_o immediate_a command_n from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o to_o do_v as_o those_o do_v who_o minister_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o fast_v and_o though_o j._n w._n tell_v i_o that_o sure_o i_o know_v paul_n have_v preach_v some_o year_n before_o that_o and_o so_o will_v fain_o cover_v his_o late_a send_v forth_o with_o this_o practice_n and_o excuse_v it_o be_v not_o be_v do_v soon_o yet_o the_o deceit_n be_v see_v for_o the_o cover_n be_v too_o short_a for_o though_o paul_n have_v be_v preach_v before_o yet_o he_o be_v return_v from_o jerusalem_n with_o barnabas_n have_v fulfil_v their_o ministry_n act_v 12.25_o and_o that_o be_v do_v the_o holy_a ghost_n send_v they_o another_o way_n to_o preach_v for_o we_o shall_v always_o find_v that_o when_o the_o work_n be_v do_v in_o one_o place_n they_o depart_v to_o another_o and_o stay_v not_o in_o one_o place_n many_o year_n in_o a_o settle_a outward_a habitation_n &_o they_o go_v still_o as_o they_o be_v send_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o never_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v idle_a no_o not_o a_o day_n be_v allow_v they_o for_o their_o recreation_n or_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o body_n for_o their_o health_n for_o this_o be_v their_o daily_a exercise_n to_o be_v do_v the_o will_n of_o he_o that_o send_v he_o and_o paul_n body_n bear_v the_o mark_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n now_o either_o j._n w._n must_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o he_o have_v fulfil_v his_o former_a ministry_n as_o paul_n and_o barnabas_n have_v or_o else_o he_o can_v plead_v a_o right_a to_o this_o send_n of_o paul_n and_o barnabas_n in_o act._n 13._o whether_o he_o have_v do_v that_o let_v that_o of_o god_n in_o his_o conscience_n judge_n and_o whether_o he_o have_v manifest_v such_o a_o thing_n to_o any_o of_o you_o let_v that_o of_o god_n in_o your_o conscience_n speak_v and_o declare_v nay_o it_o be_v much_o to_o be_v fear_v that_o instead_o of_o fulfil_v his_o ministry_n he_o be_v fall_v back_o from_o much_o of_o it_o witness_v his_o sprinkle_n of_o infant_n which_o once_o he_o can_v not_o do_v even_o since_o he_o first_o pretend_v a_o call_n to_o the_o ministry_n and_o his_o sing_n of_o david_n psalm_n which_o once_o he_o
