be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n every_o man_n therefore_o that_o have_v hear_v and_o learn_v of_o the_o father_n come_v unto_o i_o say_v christ_n joh._n 6.45_o and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n which_o bring_v salvation_n have_v appear_v to_o all_o man_n and_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n teach_v the_o saint_n to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o to_o live_v sober_o and_o righteous_o in_o this_o present_a evil_a world_n and_o all_o who_o turn_v from_o this_o grace_n they_o turn_v into_o wantonness_n and_o so_o deny_v the_o lord_n that_o buy_v they_o and_o as_o the_o apostle_n write_v in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n because_o that_o which_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v manifest_a in_o they_o for_o god_n have_v show_v it_o to_o they_o rom._n 1.19_o so_o that_o it_o be_v clear_a and_o evident_a by_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n that_o the_o true_a teacher_n christ_n be_v within_o people_n and_o can_v be_v remove_v into_o a_o corner_n nor_o do_v no_o more_o and_o this_o be_v the_o judgement_n and_o doctrine_n of_o all_o christ_n faithful_a minister_n who_o be_v call_v choose_v and_o send_v of_o he_o as_o the_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n be_v and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n choose_v people_n can_v say_v away_o with_o all_o covetous_a hireling_n teacher_n for_o they_o be_v useless_a and_o let_v they_o learn_v to_o labour_v with_o their_o hand_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v and_o as_o the_o true_a minister_n of_o christ_n now_o do_v and_o so_o let_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n jesus_n be_v free_a and_o not_o chargeable_a to_o any_o people_n some_o thing_n offer_v to_o the_o consideration_n of_o all_o you_o who_o be_v call_v magistrate_n and_o ruler_n over_o the_o people_n and_o to_o all_o your_o under_o officer_n and_o your_o hireling_n teacher_n of_o all_o sort_n who_o pretend_v the_o scripture_n to_o be_v your_o rule_n who_o with_o your_o outward_a law_n do_v force_n and_o compel_v many_o such_o as_o absent_v from_o you_o in_o

out_o of_o the_o order_n and_o rule_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o your_o church_n as_o you_o call_v it_o be_v it_o not_o the_o papist_n old_a masse-house_n and_o by_o they_o build_v when_o they_o
