A41067	A touch-stone, or, A perfect tryal by the Scriptures, of all the priests, bishops, and ministers, who have called themselves, the ministers of the Gospel whose time and day hath been in the last ages past, or rather in the night of apostacy : they are tried and weighed by the Scriptures of truth, and are found out of the life and power of the scriptures, and out of the spirit and doctrine of them that gave them forth, and quite contrary to their principle and practice, both Papists and Protestants : unto which is annexed, Womens speaking justified, &c.

the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o have_v this_o treasury_n in_o earthen_a vessel_n that_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o power_n may_v be_v of_o god_n and_o not_o of_o we_o for_o we_o be_v

for_o jesus_n sake_n that_o the_o life_n of_o jesus_n may_v be_v make_v manifest_a in_o our_o mortal_a flesh_n so_o that_o death_n work_v in_o we_o but_o life_n in_o you_o thus_o the_o apostle_n labour_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n even_o under_o cruel_a suffering_n which_o gospel_n it_o may_v well_o be_v say_v have_v be_v hide_v for_o the_o gospel_n that_o have_v be_v preach_v since_o the_o apostasy_n have_v lay_v oppression_n and_o suffering_n upon_o other_o and_o they_o themselves_o have_v rule_v and_o lord_v over_o people_n conscience_n but_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v i_o paul_n be_o make_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o be_v preach_v to_o every_o creature_n under_o heaven_n now_o rejoice_v in_o my_o suffering_n for_o you_o and_o fill_v up_o that_o which_o be_v behind_o of_o the_o affliction_n of_o christ_n in_o my_o flesh_n for_o his_o body_n sake_n which_o be_v the_o church_n whereof_o i_o be_o make_v a_o minister_n according_a to_o the_o dispensation_n of_o god_n which_o be_v give_v to_o i_o for_o you_o to_o fulfil_v the_o word_n of_o god_n col._n 1._o but_o this_o ministry_n and_o ministration_n have_v be_v lose_v and_o the_o church_n for_o which_o the_o apostle_n suffer_v have_v be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o small_a appearance_n or_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o any_o such_o have_v suffer_v oppression_n and_o hardship_n and_o much_o detriment_n from_o such_o as_o be_v the_o profess_a ministry_n so_o these_o scripture_n with_o many_o more_o which_o may_v be_v mention_v show_v the_o contrariety_n between_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n and_o the_o profess_a ministry_n that_o have_v be_v since_o the_o apostle_n day_n in_o the_o apostasy_n and_o as_o the_o supremacy_n and_o superiority_n have_v be_v contrary_a to_o the_o apostle_n way_n and_o manner_n and_o order_n in_o lay_v oppression_n and_o burden_n upon_o the_o people_n so_o also_o they_o have_v be_v contrary_a and_o opposite_a to_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n practice_n and_o example_n in_o not_o preach_v liberty_n and_o freedom_n to_o the_o spirit_n in_o prison_n for_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v the_o anoint_v of_o god_n preach_v glad_a tiding_n to_o the_o poor_a liberty_n to_o captive_n his_o commission_n that_o he_o give_v to_o his_o disciple_n be_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o all_o nation_n to_o every_o creature_n and_o he_o say_v to_o those_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o if_o you_o continue_v in_o the_o truth_n the_o truth_n will_v make_v you_o free_a john_n 8._o and_o the_o apostle_n confess_v that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n have_v make_v he_o free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n rom._n 8._o and_o the_o

shall_v turn_v to_o the_o lord_n the_o veil_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o now_o the_o lord_n be_v that_o spirit_n and_o where_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v there_o be_v liberty_n 2_o cor._n 3._o and_o so_o this_o be_v that_o substance_n the_o apostle_n preach_v from_o and_o preach_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o take_v away_o the_o veil_n and_o give_v liberty_n and_o redeem_v from_o under_o the_o power_n of_o darkness_n and_o from_o the_o bondage_n of_o corruption_n and_o therefore_o they_o do_v not_o set_v themselves_o to_o rule_n over_o man_n faith_n or_o to_o lord_n over_o their_o conscience_n but_o they_o endeavour_v still_o to_o be_v make_v manifest_a unto_o every_o one_o conscience_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n but_o we_o have_v say_v the_o apostle_n renounce_v the_o hide_a thing_n of_o dishonesty_n not_o walk_v in_o craftiness_n nor_o handle_v the_o word_n of_o god_n deceitful_o but_o by_o manifestation_n of_o the_o truth_n commend_v ourselves_o to_o every_o man_n conscience_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n 2_o cor._n 4._o know_v therefore_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o lord_n we_o persuade_v man_n but_o we_o be_v make_v manifest_a unto_o god_n and_o i_o trust_v also_o be_v make_v manifest_a in_o your_o conscience_n so_o here_o the_o apostle_n preach_v to_o god_n witness_v in_o people_n conscience_n and_o that_o answer_v to_o they_o again_o and_o they_o be_v make_v manifest_a to_o that_o and_o therefore_o do_v the_o apostle_n john_n say_v that_o they_o need_v not_o any_o man_n to_o teach_v they_o but_o as_o the_o same_o anoint_v teach_v they_o which_o be_v truth_n and_o be_v no_o lie_n and_o so_o this_o be_v unlimited_a neither_o do_v the_o apostle_n limit_v this_o when_o they_o be_v gather_v into_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n and_o all_o drink_v into_o one_o spirit_n and_o all_o baptize_v into_o one_o body_n by_o one_o spirit_n he_o tell_v they_o they_o may_v all_o prophesy_v one_o by_o one_o and_o that_o though_o they_o be_v many_o member_n yet_o they_o be_v one_o bread_n and_o one_o body_n and_o every_o member_n of_o the_o body_n have_v its_o several_a office_n the_o head_n do_v not_o say_v to_o the_o foot_n i_o have_v no_o need_n of_o you_o now_o concern_v spiritual_a gift_n brethren_n i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o ignorant_a there_o be_v diversity_n of_o gift_n but_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o there_o be_v

the_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o every_o man_n to_o profit_v withal_o for_o to_o one_o be_v give_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n the_o word_n of_o wisdom_n to_o another_o the_o word_n of_o knowledge_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o faith_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o the_o gift_n of_o healing_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o the_o work_n of_o miracle_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o prophecy_n to_o another_o discern_v of_o spirit_n to_o another_o divers_a kind_n of_o tongue_n to_o another_o interpretation_n of_o tongue_n but_o all_o these_o work_v that_o one_o and_o the_o selfsame_a spirit_n divide_v to_o every_o man_n several_o as_o he_o will_v for_o as_o the_o body_n be_v one_o and_o have_v many_o member_n and_o all_o the_o member_n of_o that_o one_o body_n be_v many_o be_v one_o body_n so_o also_o be_v christ_n for_o by_o one_o spirit_n we_o be_v all_o baptise_a into_o one_o body_n whether_o we_o be_v jew_n or_o gentile_n whether_o

go_v on_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o chapter_n discourse_v of_o the_o several_a gift_n all_o give_v by_o one_o spirit_n so_o here_o be_v no_o bind_v nor_o limit_v nor_o supremacy_n one_o over_o

they_o be_v not_o marry_v with_o a_o priest_n and_o according_a to_o their_o way_n they_o account_v it_o no_o marriage_n and_o thus_o they_o run_v themselves_o quite_o off_o from_o the_o scripture_n as_o bad_a as_o they_o that_o never_o hear_v of_o they_o for_o though_o they_o profess_v they_o in_o word_n they_o be_v utter_o and_o quite_o out_o of_o they_o in_o their_o practice_n and_o that_o
