church_n now_o let_v we_o bring_v forth_o our_o reason_n to_o prove_v the_o contrary_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v jesus_n christ_n have_v command_v that_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v preach_v and_o the_o sacrament_n administer_v in_o the_o church_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n then_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o ministry_n be_v always_o requisite_a and_o necessary_a in_o the_o church_n

and_o behold_v i_o be_o with_o you_o unto_o the_o world_n end_n for_o after_o the_o commandment_n to_o preach_v the_o word_n and_o to_o administer_v baptism_n under_o which_o sacrament_n the_o other_o

declare_v two_o thing_n one_o that_o he_o will_v and_o ordein_v that_o the_o ministry_n be_v exercise_v in_o the_o church_n not_o for_o one_o age_n only_o but_o continual_o unto_o the_o consummation_n and_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n the_o other_o be_v that_o he_o promise_v that_o although_o satan_n subtle_o devise_v &_o invent_v and_o practice_v all_o that_o he_o can_v to_o hinder_v the_o ministry_n &_o the_o work_n of_o god_n servant_n and_o the_o tyrant_n by_o their_o practice_n and_o violence_n enforce_v themselves_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o power_n to_o overthrow_v &_o to_o bring_v to_o naught_o the_o church_n of_o god_n yet_o he_o will_v by_o his_o godly_a and_o heavenly_a power_n always_o maintain_v his_o truth_n in_o the_o world_n and_o preserve_v his_o church_n therein_o by_o the_o ministry_n and_o labour_n of_o his_o faithful_a pastor_n the_o second_o reason_n 17_o rom._n 1●_n 17_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n say_v to_o the_o roman_n that_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v and_o hear_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o declare_v that_o god_n have_v accustom_v to_o plant_v faith_n in_o our_o heart_n by_o the_o preach_n of_o his_o word_n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o power_n of_o god_n be_v not_o tie_v to_o this_o outward_a mean_n but_o that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o beget_v faith_n in_o we_o after_o some_o other_o fashion_n and_o by_o some_o other_o mean_v although_o it_o be_v to_o we_o incomprehensible_a even_o as_o it_o shall_v please_v he_o self_n but_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o the_o ministry_n of_o his_o word_n be_v the_o ordinary_a mean_a which_o he_o use_v or_o serve_v himself_o with_o to_o give_v we_o faith_n by_o so_o that_o they_o which_o will_v have_v faith_n without_o the_o preach_n and_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n do_v as_o much_o as_o though_o they_o will_v live_v without_o meat_n &_o drink_n which_o god_n have_v ordain_v for_o our_o bodily_a life_n now_o hereupon_o we_o take_v and_o frame_v our_o argument_n thus_o faith_n be_v in_o all_o time_n and_o always_o necessary_a for_o man_n but_o faith_n be_v give_v unto_o man_n from_o god_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n be_v in_o all_o time_n and_o always_o necessary_a for_o man_n the_o three_o reason_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o for_o as_o much_o as_o the_o sacrament_n be_v ordain_v by_o god_n to_o be_v as_o it_o be_v seal_n of_o the_o word_n to_o seal_v in_o our_o heart_n that_o which_o be_v therein_o contain_v already_o that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o union_n fellowship_n and_o

be_v altogether_o unprofitable_a yea_o be_v not_o allow_v a_o seal_n unless_o be_v bind_v or_o set_v to_o some_o instrument_n or_o writing_n for_o the_o confirmation_n thereof_o even_o so_o the_o sacrament_n be_v altogether_o unprofitable_a yea_o indeed_o be_v not_o a_o sacrament_n if_o it_o be_v not_o join_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v to_o confirm_v the_o same_o unto_o us._n

reason_n after_o this_o manner_n the_o administration_n of_o the_o holy_a supper_n be_v always_o necessary_a in_o the_o church_n even_o unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n for_o jesus_n christ_n have_v command_v we_o to_o celebrate_v it_o and_o by_o that_o mean_n to_o preach_v or_o show_v forth_o his_o death_n until_o his_o come_n again_o but_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o supper_n can_v
