so_o that_o the_o publicknesse_n of_o a_o act_n be_v not_o necessary_a to_o make_v it_o a_o act_n of_o office_n reply_n this_o depend_v upon_o a_o mere_a mistake_n it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o say_v the_o publicknesse_n of_o the_o act_n of_o exhort_v etc._n etc._n make_v it_o a_o act_n of_o office_n or_o that_o a_o public_a act_n be_v a_o act_n of_o office_n that_o we_o affirm_v it_o be_v another_o thing_n to_o say_v that_o no_o act_n but_o a_o public_a act_n be_v a_o act_n of_o office_n as_o our_o brethren_n mistake_v it_o this_o we_o affirm_v not_o nor_o be_v it_o for_o our_o purpose_n to_o assert_v it_o nay_o we_o assert_v that_o a_o officer_n private_a rebuke_n be_v a_o act_n of_o office_n 2._o they_o say_v if_o it_o be_v the_o different_a way_n and_o manner_n of_o act_v that_o make_v a_o act_n to_o be_v a_o act_n of_o office_n than_o their_o argument_n concern_v not_o the_o work_n itself_o but_o the_o manner_n of_o work_v and_o so_o all_o which_o it_o prove_v be_v this_o that_o none_o ought_v to_o do_v the_o officer_n work_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o he_o do_v it_o i._n e._n not_o official_o and_o this_o we_o ready_o grant_v reply_n our_o argument_n concern_v the_o work_n but_o than_o it_o must_v be_v the_o work_n in_o question_n and_o that_o our_o brethren_n well_o know_v be_v not_o exhort_v in_o general_a but_o public_a exhort_v but_o of_o this_o more_o hereafter_o it_o must_v now_o be_v remember_v that_o the_o provincial_a assembly_n confirm_v the_o major_a by_o three_o argument_n the_o first_o be_v this_o because_o god_n have_v severe_o punish_v such_o as_o have_v do_v those_o work_n for_o which_o he_o have_v appoint_v special_a officer_n as_o saul_n uzzah_n to_o this_o our_o brethren_n answer_v two_o thing_n 1._o that_o these_o be_v case_n of_o necessity_n and_o so_o if_o they_o prove_v any_o thing_n they_o prove_v that_o gift_a man_n may_v not_o preach_v no_o not_o in_o a_o case_n of_o necessity_n which_o be_v allow_v by_o yourselves_o reply_n the_o case_n be_v not_o parallel_v nor_o be_v the_o necessity_n alike_o of_o preach_v and_o sacrifice_v preach_v as_o our_o brethren_n will_v grant_v be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n so_o be_v not_o sacrifice_v nor_o be_v sacrifice_v necessary_a in_o that_o case_n for_o israel_n deliverance_n if_o god_n have_v deny_v a_o opportunity_n of_o sacrifice_v i_o conceive_v the_o parallel_n will_v lie_v right_a between_o their_o sacrifice_n and_o our_o sacrament_n neither_o of_o which_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n necessitate_v medii_fw-la and_o hereby_o the_o argument_n will_v receive_v further_a light_n and_o strength_n i._n e._n because_o god_n have_v appoint_v peculiar_a officer_n for_o the_o administration_n of_o our_o sacrament_n as_o well_o as_o their_o sacrifice_n therefore_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v administer_v by_o person_n out_o of_o office_n no_o not_o in_o any_o case_n of_o a_o pretend_a necessity_n forasmuch_o as_o there_o be_v no_o absolute_a and_o real_a necessity_n of_o either_o sacrifice_n or_o sacrament_n to_o salvation_n and_o thus_o far_o our_o brethren_n must_v consent_v with_o we_o unless_o they_o will_v turn_v gross_a separatist_n and_o allow_v a_o liberty_n also_o for_o gift_a man_n to_o administer_v the_o sacrament_n which_o i_o be_o confident_a they_o will_v not_o 2._o they_o say_v the_o

to_o the_o church_n he_o preach_v as_o a_o ambassador_n to_o one_o as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o other_o and_o see_v that_o paul_n or_o any_o other_o minister_n preach_v to_o heathen_n or_o such_o as_o

to_o which_o may_v be_v add_v that_o the_o authority_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v not_o a_o economical_a but_o a_o political_a a_o ecclesiastical_a authority_n not_o a_o authority_n in_o the_o family_n

it_o follow_v that_o the_o french_a law_n when_o they_o prohibit_v woman_n from_o usurp_a authority_n or_o wield_v the_o sceptre_n do_v allow_v it_o to_o all_o man_n or_o than_o it_o will_v follow_v

the_o same_o reason_n they_o be_v forbid_v to_o preach_v for_o my_o part_n this_o be_v so_o clear_a that_o he_o that_o shall_v resist_v such_o evidence_n i_o shall_v despair_v of_o ever_o see_v he_o

for_o ordination_n which_o also_o be_v necessary_a as_o have_v be_v argue_v may_v not_o so_o much_o as_o preach_v once_o and_o their_o preach_v tho_o spare_o be_v as_o clear_o though_o not_o so_o gross_o contrary_a to_o this_o prohibition_n as_o to_o preach_v constant_o 2._o that_o it_o be_v the_o work_n and_o not_o the_o manner_n of_o work_v which_o be_v here_o forbid_a the_o very_a work_n of_o public_a preach_n be_v here_o forbid_v they_o this_o i_o say_v to_o prevent_v a_o common_a evasion_n of_o our_o brethren_n that_o gift_a man_n may_v not_o and_o can_v preach_v in_o the_o same_o

the_o case_n of_o woman_n and_o say_v that_o they_o may_v do_v the_o work_n although_o they_o can_v do_v it_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n i._n e._n with_o authority_n if_o i_o shall_v say_v so_o it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o silence_v i_o by_o say_v that_o the_o very_a act_n of_o preach_v be_v speak_v of_o as_o a_o act_n of_o authority_n and_o that_o may_v just_o silence_v they_o too_o the_o six_o
