i_o have_v rather_o pass_v to_o the_o grave_a and_o there_o rest_n in_o silence_n than_o to_o have_v my_o name_n stand_v among_o that_o proud_a generation_n i_o know_v it_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o christ_n intercession_n to_o store_v the_o church_n with_o gift_n for_o the_o edify_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o church_n and_o the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n have_v a_o precious_a lusty_a &_o comeliness_n in_o my_o eye_n especial_o those_o that_o love_v the_o work_n for_o their_o master_n sake_n i_o mean_v the_o conversion_n of_o soul_n i_o say_v their_o employment_n be_v the_o most_o honourable_a they_o serve_v the_o lord_n christ_n they_o that_o convert_v soul_n to_o god_n shall_v shine_v as_o the_o star_n in_o the_o firmament_n they_o be_v father_n in_o the_o church_n and_o it_o may_v serve_v to_o humble_a man_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v this_o way_n to_o teach_v man_n by_o man_n and_o my_o prayer_n to_o god_n be_v that_o he_o will_v send_v out_o more_o faithful_a labourer_n for_o the_o harvest_n be_v great_a also_o maintenance_n for_o they_o be_v as_o clear_v a_o ordinance_n as_o the_o other_o i_o can_v instance_n in_o many_o scripture_n gal._n 6.6_o and_o the_o best_a of_o outward_a thing_n befit_v the_o best_a call_v and_o not_o niggardly_a portion_n for_o they_o must_v use_v hospitality_n and_o so_o be_v ensample_n for_o their_o flock_n and_o for_o a_o christian_a nation_n so_o profess_v to_o be_v it_o be_v not_o our_o glory_n but_o our_o shame_n to_o let_v they_o live_v beggarly_a and_o in_o disgrace_n as_o we_o flourish_v they_o shall_v be_v partaker_n he_o that_o give_v free_o and_o of_o a_o cheerful_a mind_n he_o offer_v the_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n to_o god_n and_o none_o be_v accept_v for_o sacrifice_n but_o such_o our_o saviour_n say_v the_o time_n shall_v come_v that_o he_o that_o worship_v shall_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n but_o you_o will_v say_v who_o shall_v take_v care_n for_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n minister_n and_o maintenance_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n that_o i_o suppose_v be_v your_o work_n to_o be_v study_v how_o to_o be_v nurse_v father_n to_o the_o church_n and_o to_o see_v that_o those_o that_o preach_v and_o publish_v the_o gospel_n under_o your_o dominion_n may_v have_v du_fw-fr encouragement_n and_o supply_n i_o think_v none_o will_v deny_v but_o that_o they_o shall_v participate_v with_o we_o in_o our_o good_a and_o pleasant_a temporal_a thing_n and_o i_o judge_v it_o better_o by_o gift_n than_o force_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n they_o give_v all_o thing_n as_o they_o have_v they_o for_o build_v the_o temple_n and_o sacrifice_n the_o apostle_n tell_v ananias_n be_v it_o not_o in_o thy_o power_n act_n 5.4_o the_o portion_n god_n appoint_v the_o levite_n as_o it_o be_v typical_a so_o to_o encourage_v they_o in_o the_o work_n so_o that_o be_v about_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n they_o may_v not_o be_v hinder_v and_o the_o maintenance_n minister_n shall_v receive_v beside_o as_o duty_n from_o the_o donor_n it_o shall_v be_v for_o encouragement_n to_o he_o who_o work_n be_v enough_o for_o the_o whole_a body_n and_o mind_n be_v it_o any_o encouragement_n to_o a_o servant_n to_o continu_fw-la his_o service_n that_o must_v sum_z for_o his_o wage_n after_o earn_v by_o painful_a sweating_n and_o hard_a labour_n be_v it_o any_o encouragement_n to_o the_o merchant_n and_o tradesman_n after_o they_o have_v make_v use_n of_o their_o utmost_a skill_n in_o buy_v and_o wait_v to_o take_v the_o best_a season_n for_o wind_n and_o tide_n to_o bring_v home_o their_o good_n and_o after_o all_o must_v impose_v they_o on_o such_o as_o will_v never_o pay_v till_o hale_v to_o prison_n this_o speak_v the_o commodity_n to_o have_v no_o worth_n in_o they_o so_o for_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n to_o have_v their_o wage_n by_o force_n and_o to_o be_v a_o man_n of_o strife_n when_o his_o message_n be_v peace_n and_o precious_a work_n it_o be_v i_o say_v for_o he_o to_o force_v and_o become_v a_o ruff-man_n can_v he_o do_v this_o and_o be_v encourage_v in_o his_o work_n the_o word_n say_v allude_v to_o they_o the_o labourer_n be_v worthy_a of_o his_o hire_n so_o that_o the_o gospel_n be_v of_o some_o worth_n and_o o_o that_o the_o gospel_n may_v dissolve_v hard_a heart_n more_o many_o time_n it_o prove_v

covetousness_n of_o the_o minister_n less_o and_o the_o charity_n of_o the_o people_n more_o i_o know_v no_o rule_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o the_o magistrate_n shall_v study_v whole_o to_o

not_o dispute_v but_o this_o i_o know_v gospel_n principles_n bear_v that_o every_o man_n do_v what_o he_o do_v in_o faith_n and_o this_o i_o know_v be_v according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o nation_n if_o the_o magistrate_n command_v any_o thing_n against_o my_o conscience_n i_o ought_v to_o obey_v or_o suffer_v i_o will_v not_o undertake_v to_o say_v what_o the_o magistrate_n may_v not_o do_v as_o a_o magistrate_n but_o i_o conceive_v this_o he_o may_v do_v without_o oppress_v any_o give_v to_o the_o minister_n the_o glebe_n land_n in_o all_o place_n also_o all_o those_o land_n wrest_v
