for_o a_o bare_a read_v minister_n much_o less_o for_o a_o preach_a minister_n for_o christ_n ministry_n be_v a_o preach_a ministry_n and_o not_o only_o a_o read_n ministry_n and_o therefore_o can_v

they_o forsooth_o will_v have_v no_o tithe_n pay_v unto_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o they_o shall_v labour_v in_o some_o other_o call_v for_o their_o live_n say_v they_o as_o other_o do_v and_o as_o the_o apostle_n do_v some_o be_v fisherman_n and_o s._n paul_n be_v a_o tentmaker_n but_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o apostle_n who_o have_v their_o immediate_a call_n by_o god_n and_o our_o ministe_n who_o have_v their_o mediate_a call_n by_o god_n also_o but_o by_o mean_n of_o school_n and_o thereby_o to_o get_v learning_n that_o they_o may_v attain_v to_o the_o ministerial_a function_n and_o so_o consequent_o by_o study_n who_o labour_n be_v great_a than_o handicraft_n trade_n or_o husbandry_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o base_a opinion_n in_o those_o that_o say_v minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v labour_v in_o some_o manual_a call_n i_o think_v their_o diligent_a study_n and_o preach_v be_v labour_n enough_o for_o they_o we_o need_v lay_v no_o great_a burden_n upon_o their_o back_n again_o it_o be_v fit_a for_o religious_a people_n professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o consider_v that_o there_o be_v difference_n between_o a_o settle_n church_n and_o a_o settle_a church_n now_o the_o apostle_n have_v work_n enough_o in_o settle_v the_o church_n in_o their_o time_n as_o well_o in_o matter_n of_o faith_n as_o in_o manner_n of_o life_n according_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n holy_a word_n and_o will_n and_o yet_o the_o apostle_n do_v give_v rule_n and_o command_v for_o minister_n maintenance_n as_o you_o shall_v hear_v anon_o object_n but_o what_o tithe_n do_v the_o apostle_n receive_v in_o that_o time_n when_o they_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n answ_n i_o answer_v what_o tithe_n do_v the_o priest_n and_o levite_n receive_v as_o long_o as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n it_o be_v true_a god_n do_v command_v tithe_n to_o be_v pay_v then_o but_o the_o payment_n of_o tithe_n be_v not_o perform_v until_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n come_v into_o canaan_n the_o land_n of_o promise_n where_o every_o man_n do_v receive_v his_o portion_n in_o possession_n for_o the_o time_n they_o be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n they_o have_v no_o settle_a portion_n in_o possession_n to_o pay_v tithe_n withal_o for_o god_n do_v feed_v priest_n levite_n and_o people_n and_o all_o in_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n as_o with_o manna_n from_o heaven_n for_o as_o long_o as_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n god_n be_v settle_v his_o church_n what_o they_o shall_v do_v when_o they_o come_v to_o their_o promise_a place_n and_o portion_n for_o all_o thing_n command_v be_v not_o nor_o can_v it_o be_v do_v in_o a_o instant_n by_o man_n so_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n in_o the_o time_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n when_o he_o come_v he_o do_v as_o it_o be_v new_a mould_n the_o manner_n of_o god_n worship_n and_o service_n that_o whereas_o before_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n god_n worship_n and_o service_n be_v by_o all_o external_a mean_n as_o kill_v of_o beast_n and_o make_v of_o sacrifice_n and_o all_o offering_n and_o outward_a performance_n in_o the_o worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n but_o now_o and_o since_o the_o time_n our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n come_v upon_o the_o earth_n he_o ordain_v by_o the_o will_n of_o his_o father_n that_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n must_v be_v spiritual_a and_o internal_a unto_o the_o end_n when_o god_n have_v make_v a_o end_n of_o describe_v the_o manner_n of_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n as_o he_o will_v have_v it_o perform_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n as_o we_o may_v find_v in_o the_o book_n of_o exodus_fw-la and_o levitieus_fw-la so_o at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o book_n of_o leviticus_n chap._n 27._o the_o lord_n by_o moses_n have_v reserve_v the_o maintenance_n of_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n to_o himself_o as_o namely_o

in_o the_o book_n of_o number_n 18.21_o 24_o 26_o 28._o and_o not_o only_o to_o the_o priest_n and_o levite_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n but_o also_o to_o the_o pastor_n teacher_n and_o

shall_v have_v the_o inheritance_n of_o a_o piece_n of_o land_n give_v he_o i_o very_o believe_v he_o do_v expect_v it_o as_o a_o right_n to_o he_o and_o his_o heir_n for_o ever_o only_o by_o this_o

great_o wrong_v and_o oppress_v you_o will_v say_v it_o be_v true_a then_o i_o say_v consider_v the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n whatsoever_o you_o will_v that_o man_n shall_v do_v
