it_o to_o their_o friend_n and_o neighbour_n and_o also_o you_o may_v see_v dorcas_n be_v full_a of_o good_a work_n and_o alms-deed_n which_o she_o do_v work_n dorcas_n full_a of_o good_a work_n and_o

and_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o other_o woman_n before_o they_o be_v convert_v and_o priscilla_n gospel_n priscialla_n a_o labourer_n in_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v a_o notable_a faithful_a woman_n who_o paul_n often_o mention_n with_o her_o husband_n aquilla_n and_o philip_n four_o daughter_n which_o be_v prophetess_n which_o be_v set_v forth_o to_o encourage_v other_o and_o you_o may_v

for_o their_o faithfulness_n to_o the_o church_n as_o you_o may_v read_v rom._n 16._o and_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o the_o unbelieving_a husband_n be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o unbelieve_a wife_n

and_o prophesy_v here_o according_a to_o order_n in_o the_o church_n as_o well_o as_o the_o man_n 1_o cor._n 11._o and_o yet_o the_o same_o apostle_n in_o the_o 14_o chapter_n forbid_v a_o woman_n to_o speak_v in_o the_o church_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v let_v the_o woman_n keep_v silence_n in_o the_o church_n and_o if_o they_o will_v learn_v any_o thing_n let_v they_o ask_v their_o

husband_n to_o ask_v but_o christ_n nor_o a_o virgin_n yet_o she_o may_v prophesy_v and_o a_o believe_a woman_n that_o have_v a_o unbelieving_a husband_n he_o be_v to_o be_v sanctify_v by_o she_o so_o she_o be_v not_o to_o learn_v her_o salvation_n of_o he_o but_o of_o christ_n and_o to_o do_v his_o work_n and_o the_o same_o apostle_n say_v let_v the_o man_n keep_v silence_n in_o the_o church_n if_o they_o speak_v in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n and_o there_o be_v not_o a_o interpreter_n so_o here_o the_o man_n must_v keep_v silence_n in_o the_o church_n in_o this_o case_n woman_n man_n forbid_v in_o some_o case_n to_o speak_v in_o the_o church_n as_o well_o as_o some_o woman_n as_o well_o as_o the_o woman_n 1_o cor._n 11._o and_o chap._n 14.27_o and_o the_o apostle_n further_o say_v i_o permit_v not_o a_o woman_n to_o speak_v in_o the_o church_n but_o to_o be_v under_o obedience_n as_o also_o say_v the_o law_n but_o though_o the_o law_n do_v not_o permit_v their_o usurp_a authority_n in_o the_o church_n yet_o it_o do_v permit_v their_o prophesy_v in_o the_o church_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o those_o famous_a woman_n beforementioned_a in_o the_o old_a testament_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o new_a and_o the_o same_o apostle_n say_v i_o beseech_v thou_o euodias_n and_o i_o beseech_v

gospel_n with_o clement_n also_o und_fw-ge iwth_v other_o my_o fellow_n labourer_n who_o name_n be_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n so_o here_o the_o apostle_n entreat_v his_o yoke-fellow_n to_o help_v those_o woman_n which_o labour_v with_o he_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o power_n of_o god_n so_o these_o woman_n be_v meet_v help_n with_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o labour_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o

receive_v the_o gospel_n to_o labour_v in_o it_o and_o all_o that_o have_v not_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o lord_n will_v discourage_v woman_n labour_v in_o the_o gospel_n and_o

woe_n be_v unto_o and_o not_o the_o blessing_n and_o again_o the_o apostle_n write_v to_o timothy_n that_o the_o woman_n shall_v adorn_v themselves_o in_o modest_a apparel_n and_o shamefacedness_n
