unknown_a phrase_n any_o part_n of_o our_o question_n sure_o there_o be_v not_o such_o a_o word_n from_o one_o end_n to_o the_o other_o methinks_v you_o speak_v now_o like_o one_o that_o be_v

to_o be_v actual_a teach_n and_o yet_o you_o bid_v i_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v of_o actual_a teach_n but_o you_o say_v they_o be_v not_o steward_n to_o provide_v pray_v do_v not_o a_o master_n in_o a_o family_n teach_v as_o a_o steward_n and_o be_v not_o every_o good_a christian_a to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o his_o stewardship_n and_o do_v not_o the_o apostle_n peter_n say_v 1_o pet._n 4.10_o of_o every_o good_a christian_a that_o he_o be_v to_o minister_v as_o a_o good_a steward_n of_o the_o manifold_a grace_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o you_o be_v so_o ignorant_a as_o to_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v to_o teach_v but_o not_o as_o steward_n and_o for_o your_o say_n that_o this_o text_n be_v speak_v in_o general_a term_n viz._n you_o ought_v to_o teach_v and_o that_o therefore_o it_o may_v respect_v woman_n teach_n in_o the_o church_n as_o well_o as_o man_n i_o answer_v so_o it_o may_v if_o the_o scripture_n have_v not_o say_v the_o woman_n must_v keep_v silence_n in_o the_o church_n 1_o cor._n 14.34_o and_o this_o he_o call_v a_o part_n of_o their_o subjection_n to_o the_o law_n which_o the_o hebrew_n woman_n be_v always_o instruct_v in_o and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o a_o particular_a exception_n in_o this_o exhortation_n quest_n 13_o you_o query_n from_o those_o query_n that_o i_o ground_n upon_o 1_o cor._n 14.1_o 24_o 31._o why_o i_o do_v not_o consult_v the_o london_n minister_n etc._n etc._n say_v that_o it_o be_v vainglory_n in_o i_o to_o make_v the_o world_n believe_v that_o these_o man_n have_v do_v nothing_o worthy_a my_o regard_n etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v as_o former_o if_o they_o have_v do_v enough_o what_o need_v this_o waste_n that_o you_o make_v by_o write_v more_o can_v you_o not_o in_o a_o few_o line_n have_v refer_v your_o reader_n to_o they_o for_o the_o solution_n of_o my_o question_n without_o any_o more_o ado_n but_o further_a you_o ask_v if_o the_o gift_n that_o these_o man_n have_v 1_o cor._n 14._o be_v not_o extraordinary_a i_o answer_v what_o be_v this_o to_o the_o purpose_n for_o it_o be_v no_o part_n of_o my_o question_n to_o know_v whether_o they_o preach_v by_o gift_n extraordinary_a or_o ordinary_a but_o whether_o they_o preach_v as_o gift_v or_o by_o office_n let_v the_o gift_n be_v what_o they_o will_v for_o sure_o the_o greatness_n of_o their_o gift_n can_v not_o tolerate_v they_o to_o preach_v contrary_a to_o a_o divine_a institution_n see_v there_o be_v no_o necessity_n it_o be_v a_o constitute_v church_n as_o you_o call_v it_o that_o have_v officer_n in_o it_o you_o go_v on_o and_o say_v that_o they_o be_v prophet_n which_o you_o say_v be_v a_o office_n pro_fw-la tempore_fw-la improper_o so_o call_v then_o any_o one_o that_o can_v prophesy_v now_o adays_o may_v preach_v by_o this_o argument_n but_o if_o it_o be_v a_o office_n improper_o so_o call_v than_o they_o that_o prophesy_v be_v improper_o call_v officer_n so_o that_o then_o to_o speak_v proper_o they_o do_v speak_v to_o edification_n and_o comfort_n out_o of_o office_n and_o as_o gift_a brethren_n and_o for_o your_o similitude_n of_o a_o judge_n his_o place_n you_o say_v if_o such_o a_o place_n fall_v all_o the_o sergeant_n about_o the_o town_n may_v seek_v for_o it_o which_o imply_v that_o there_o be_v some_o great_a benefice_n vacant_a and_o that_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v all_o the_o church_n to_o gape_v for_o it_o when_o he_o bid_v they_o covet_v to_o prophesy_v sure_o the_o simile_n can_v hold_v forth_o little_a else_o but_o pray_v sir_n though_o all_o the_o sergeant_n about_o the_o town_n may_v lawful_o seek_v for_o such_o a_o place_n may_v all_o the_o people_n about_o the_o town_n seek_v lawful_o for_o a_o judge_n place_n when_o it_o fall_v for_o this_o be_v the_o case_n all_o the_o church_n be_v exhort_v to_o covet_v prophesy_v and_o not_o some_o particular_a person_n and_o therefore_o you_o see_v that_o the_o simile_n be_v beside_o the_o matter_n since_o that_o all_o a_o church_n may_v lawful_o covet_v to_o prophesy_v but_o all_o the_o people_n in_o a_o commonwealth_n can_v lawful_o covet_v the_o place_n of_o a_o judge_n quest_n 14_o you_o say_v my_o fourteen_o query_n be_v worth_a nothing_o only_o you_o say_v why_o may_v not_o our_o whole_a church_n covet_v as_o well_o to_o be_v ordinary_a officer_n as_o to_o be_v preach_v gift_a brethren_n and_o if_o because_o it_o be_v monstrous_a to_o have_v so_o many_o roll_a head_n be_v it_o not_o say_v you_o as_o monstrous_a to_o have_v as_o many_o speak_a tongue_n answ_n as_o for_o your_o say_n my_o fourteen_o query_n be_v worth_a nothing_o true_o i_o may_v have_v answer_v all_o you_o at_o this_o rate_n have_v it_o not_o be_v that_o i_o fear_v you_o will_v have_v be_v wise_a in_o your_o own_o conceit_n but_o further_a you_o say_v nothing_o indeed_o to_o that_o which_o be_v demand_v but_o ask_v whether_o for_o all_o man_n to_o covet_v to_o speak_v be_v not_o to_o make_v the_o body_n as_o monstrous_a as_o if_o they_o do_v all_o covet_n to_o be_v officer_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o though_o they_o be_v not_o all_o to_o covet_v to_o speak_v as_o officer_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v but_o they_o may_v all_o covet_v to_o speak_v as_o god_n have_v enable_v they_o to_o the_o edification_n of_o the_o body_n without_o make_v the_o body_n monstrous_a for_o if_o all_o be_v to_o speak_v at_o once_o indeed_o this_o be_v to_o make_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n monstrous_a but_o to_o speak_v one_o after_o another_o as_o they_o be_v exhort_v to_o edification_n and_o comfort_n have_v not_o any_o thing_n in_o it_o of_o a_o monstrous_a nature_n quest_n 15_o i_o come_v to_o examine_v since_o mr._n willes_n tell_v the_o people_n that_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n for_o any_o to_o preach_v that_o be_v not_o ordain_v etc._n etc._n which_o of_o those_o several_a ordination_n in_o christendom_n it_o be_v that_o christ_n approve_v of_o hereupon_o after_o some_o question_n make_v touch_v the_o business_n of_o ordination_n which_o be_v not_o at_o all_o to_o the_o question_n before_o you_o you_o demand_v of_o i_o whether_o you_o may_v not_o say_v that_o all_o ordination_n in_o christendom_n be_v approve_v by_o christ_n that_o differ_v but_o thus_o circum_v antial_o etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v why_o do_v you_o not_o say_v so_o then_o that_o all_o the_o ordination_n in_o christendom_n be_v accept_v by_o christ_n without_o ask_v my_o leave_n but_o than_o you_o must_v know_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n either_o err_v in_o the_o essential_o of_o this_o ordinance_n or_o in_o circumstance_n if_o in_o essential_o than_o she_o can_v or●●in_v at_o all_o if_o but_o in_o circumstance_n then_o if_o you_o dare_v speak_v out_o do_v not_o christ_n approve_v of_o her_o administration_n of_o it_o at_o this_o day_n by_o what_o you_o say_v in_o the_o late_a end_n of_o this_o query_n but_o to_o proceed_v to_o the_o next_o in_o which_o quest_n 16_o i_o demand_v if_o a_o man_n may_v not_o lawful_o by_o this_o opinion_n be_v ordain_v at_o rome_n and_o thereupon_o you_o query_n whether_o i_o dare_v say_v that_o rome_n observe_v that_o gospel_n purity_n in_o this_o ordinance_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v no_o part_n of_o my_o question_n viz._n whether_o it_o be_v as_o pure_o but_o whether_o it_o may_v lawful_o be_v obtain_v there_o but_o you_o go_v on_o and_o say_v that_o the_o substance_n may_v be_v there_o viz._n at_o rome_n then_o sir_n by_o your_o own_o maxim_n it_o be_v approve_v by_o christ_n since_o in_o this_o ordinance_n they_o do_v err_v but_o circumstantial_o but_o you_o go_v on_o and_o say_v that_o three_o thing_n only_o excuse_v in_o error_n circumstantial_a the_o first_o be_v when_o the_o error_n be_v slight_a etc._n etc._n the_o second_o you_o say_v be_v a_o sincere_a a●m_n at_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o three_o be_v in_o case_n of_o nocessity_n etc._n etc._n you_o say_v be_v this_o our_o case_n now_o and_o can_v we_o not_o have_v it_o with_o more_o purity_n then_o at_o rome_n etc._n etc._n sir_n i_o be_o not_o about_o to_o ask_v you_o whether_o it_o may_v not_o more_o pure_o be_v have_v but_o whether_o it_o may_v be_v have_v lawful_o but_o to_o proceed_v it_o seem_v then_o by_o your_o query_n if_o a_o man_n do_v not_o think_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n
