and_o fight_v among_o themselves_o again_o contend_v for_o the_o true_a christ_n when_o neither_o of_o they_o have_v he_o reveal_v as_o appear_v by_o their_o fruit_n now_o when_o elisha_n the_o man_n of_o god_n hear_v that_o the_o king_n have_v rend_v his_o clothes_n that_o he_o send_v to_o the_o king_n say_v wherefore_o have_v thou_o rend_v thy_o clothes_n let_v he_o come_v now_o to_o i_o and_o he_o shall_v know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o prophet_n in_o israel_n o_o that_o all_o king_n and_o ruler_n be_v turn_v to_o the_o true_a prophet_n christ_n jesus_n to_o the_o true_a light_n in_o themselves_o and_o will_v direct_v all_o their_o people_n to_o he_o than_o their_o rent_n and_o division_n will_v quick_o come_v to_o a_o end_n for_o he_o be_v the_o healer_n of_o the_o breach_n and_o

time_n of_o anger_n and_o it_o be_v good_a for_o master_n to_o take_v advice_n from_o honest_a faithful_a servant_n for_o if_o naaman_n h●d_v go_v away_o in_o his_o wrath_n and_o not_o take_v his_o

receive_v they_o and_o run_v after_o naaman_n with_o a_o lie_n in_o his_o mouth_n to_o get_v the_o silver_n and_o to_o get_v the_o garment_n as_o too_o to_o many_o this_o day_n run_v after_o the_o great_a man_n and_o great_a woman_n of_o the_o nation_n with_o a_o lie_n in_o their_o mouth_n covet_v the_o gold_n and_o the_o silver_n and_o the_o apparel_n but_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v more_o the_o leprosy_n of_o naaman_n do_v cleave_v unto_o gehazi_n and_o the_o leprosy_n of_o gehazi_n do_v cleave_v to_o his_o seed_n forever_o according_a to_o the_o prophet_n word_n and_o now_o the_o gehazians_n have_v lose_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a prophet_n and_o they_o have_v lose_v the_o knowledge_n of_o spiritual_a jordan_n and_o therefore_o their_o leprosy_n remain_v their_o sin_n remain_v their_o defilement_n remain_v and_o they_o have_v now_o lose_v hope_n of_o ever_o be_v cleanse_v on_o this_o side_n of_o the_o grave_a and_o preach_v this_o for_o doctrine_n to_o the_o people_n and_o they_o be_v very_o angry_a with_o any_o that_o speak_v of_o a_o possibility_n of_o be_v make_v clean_o for_o a_o body_n of_o death_n and_o sin_n say_v they_o will_v remain_v and_o imperfection_n will_v remain_v while_o we_o be_v on_o this_o side_n of_o the_o grave_a but_o what_o have_v i_o to_o do_v with_o they_o or_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v more_o of_o they_o for_o the_o day_n break_v and_o the_o light_n arise_v wherein_o they_o shall_v be_v make_v manifest_a to_o all_o that_o will_v but_o open_v their_o eye_n to_o see_v they_o and_o they_o that_o will_v not_o must_v continue_v in_o blindness_n and_o at_o present_a i_o will_v leave_v they_o with_o that_o say_n of_o christ_n matth._n 15._o 14._o let_v they_o alone_o they_o be_v blind_a leader_n of_o the_o blind_a etc._n etc._n and_o now_o to_o our_o purpose_n in_o hand_n phlip_n the_o evangelist_n have_v four_o daughter_n virgin_n which_o do_v prophesy_v as_o you_o may_v read_v act_v 21._o 8_o 9_o and_o paul_n and_o other_o of_o the_o disciple_n tarry_v many_o day_n in_o philip_n house_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o paul_n reprove_v they_o for_o prophesy_v so_o here_o you_o may_v see_v that_o in_o those_o day_n there_o be_v daughter_n that_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n and_o do_v prophesy_v and_o also_o we_o read_v act_n 18._o 26._o that_o not_o only_a aquila_n but_o also_o priscilla_n his_o wife_n be_v expounder_n of_o the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o aquila_n be_v a_o tradesman_n and_o tentmaker_n and_o paul_n be_v of_o the_o same_o craft_n and_o we_o read_v in_o phil_n 4._o 3._o that_o there_o be_v woman_n which_o labour_v with_o paul_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o so_o you_o may_v see_v that_o there_o be_v women-labourer_n in_o the_o gospel_n as_o well_o as_o man_n and_o yet_o we_o read_v not_o that_o paul_n reject_v their_o labour_n because_o they_o be_v woman_n and_o so_o you_o see_v there_o be_v women-prophetesses_a women-expounder_n and_o women-labourer_n and_o yet_o not_o reject_v nor_o reprove_v by_o any_o of_o the_o apostle_n that_o i_o read_v of_o and_o paul_n desire_v titus_n to_o speak_v the_o thing_n which_o become_v sound_a doctrine_n that_o the_o age_a man_n be_v sober_a etc._n etc._n and_o that_o the_o age_a woman_n likewise_o be_v in_o behaviour_n as_o become_v holiness_n or_o holy_a woman_n not_o false_a accuser_n not_o give_v to_o much_o wine_n teacher_n of_o good_a thing_n that_o they_o may_v teach_v the_o young_a woman_n to_o be_v sober_a etc._n etc._n read_v tit._n 2._o throughout_o and_o there_o you_o will_v see_v that_o paul_n allow_v woman_n to_o be_v teacher_n of_o good_a thing_n as_o well_o as_o man_n and_o that_o spirit_n be_v judge_v that_o will_v hinder_v what_o god_n alow_v or_o stop_v that_o mouth_n which_o god_n open_v and_o if_o woman_n do_v not_o meet_v together_o how_o can_v the_o elder_n teach_v the_o young_a or_o it_o may_v be_v query_v if_o their_o teach_v the_o young_a woman_n be_v not_o most_o proper_a comely_a and_o effectual_a in_o a_o meeting_n apart_o from_o the_o man_n but_o it_o clear_o may_v be_v see_v that_o god_n allow_v woman_n to_o labour_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o teach_v good_a thing_n and_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o pour_v out_o his_o spirit_n upon_o the_o woman_n as_o well_o as_o the_o man_n and_o they_o be_v to_o meet_v often_o together_o and_o to_o speak_v often_o one_o to_o another_o and_o to_o wait_v upon_o god_n together_o and_o think_v upon_o his_o name_n together_o and_o praise_v his_o power_n together_o and_o call_v upon_o his_o name_n together_o as_o well_o as_o the_o man_n and_o the_o elder_a in_o the_o truth_n to_o teach_v the_o young_a in_o the_o truth_n obj._n but_o some_o may_v say_v see_v it_o be_v so_o clear_a from_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n that_o there_o have_v be_v woman_n labourer_n in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o women-prophetesses_a and_o women-expounder_n of_o the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o that_o it_o be_v command_v the_o elder_a woman_n to_o teach_v the_o young_a etc._n etc._n how_o shall_v i_o know_v what_o woman_n those_o be_v that_o paul_n forbid_v to_o speak_v in_o the_o church_n answ_n all_o woman_n that_o be_v apt_a to_o usurp_v authority_n over_o their_o husband_n all_o woman_n that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o that_o have_v not_o learn_v true_a subjection_n and_o every_o woman_n
