that_o ever_o i_o read_v any_o such_o phrase_n as_o that_o eye_n which_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n have_v blind_v and_o therefore_o till_o you_o produce_v the_o proof_n this_o may_v suffice_v but_o i_o shall_v free_o enlarge_v to_o tell_v you_o that_o paul_n speak_v to_o this_o effect_n if_o the_o 4._o gospel_n be_v hide_v it_o be_v hide_v to_o they_o that_o be_v lose_v and_o then_o he_o

mind_n be_v so_o blind_v to_o they_o also_o be_v the_o gospel_n hide_v and_o it_o be_v hide_v from_o they_o only_o who_o be_v lose_v and_o therefore_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o you_o to_o examine_v with_o

be_v most_o blind_a may_v see_v it_o for_o no_o one_o can_v see_v it_o in_o a_o low_a degree_n and_o for_o the_o manner_n how_o blind_v by_o unbelief_n and_o how_o open_v by_o faith_n of_o which_o more_o at_o large_a in_o my_o answer_n to_o your_o four_o query_n and_o whether_o the_o letter_n can_v open_v it_o yea_o or_o no_o the_o question_n be_v absurd_a for_o though_o it_o be_v a_o

they_o may_v not_o hear_v but_o unto_o they_o proper_o who_o ear_n be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o though_o paul_n may_v plant_v and_o apollo_n water_n yet_o it_o be_v

i_o have_v partly_o prove_v in_o my_o answer_n to_o your_o seven_o query_n as_o to_o matter_n and_o mean_n i_o come_v now_o unto_o what_o remain_v concerning_o maintenance_n for_o there_o i_o show_v how_o paul_n the_o wise_a master_n builder_n who_o yet_o be_v servant_n unto_o all_o be_v to_o and_o do_v ordain●_z and_o choose_v by_o deputation_n other_o workman_n in_o the_o same_o employment_n with_o he_o as_o fellow-labourer_n in_o the_o vineyard_n of_o the_o lord_n church_n and_o so_o it_o be_v the_o same_o now_o and_o concerning_o maintenance_n the_o same_o apostle_n have_v prove_v the_o 10_o necessary_a conveniency_n of_o a_o maintenance_n for_o gospel-minister_n by_o many_o unquestionable_a argument_n he_o come_v at_o last_o to_o this_o assertion_n even_o so_o have_v the_o lord_n ordain_v that_o they_o which_o preach_v the_o gospel_n shall_v live_v of_o the_o gospel_n and_o certain_o he_o so_o ought_v to_o live_v as_o that_o he_o may_v not_o become_v worse_o than_o a_o infidel_n but_o provide_v for_o his_o own_o family_n and_o the_o rehearse_n of_o that_o ordinance_n be_v also_o a_o practitioner_n in_o the_o use_n of_o maintenance_n for_o this_o he_o testify_v of_o himself_o i_o rob_v toher_o church_n take_v wage_n of_o they_o to_o do_v you_o service_n and_o therefore_o since_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o he_o as_o certain_o it_o be_v to_o take_v wage_n for_o so_o he_o call_v it_o of_o one_o church_n to_o do_v another_o service_n then_o sure_o be_v it_o much_o more_o tolerable_a for_o a_o minister_n to_o take_v wage_n of_o a_o church_n to_o serve_v the_o same_o and_o though_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o time_n of_o our_o saviour_n presence_n with_o they_o take_v neither_o purse_n nor_o scrip_n with_o they_o because_o their_o employment_n require_v haste_n yet_o this_o be_v annex_v the_o labourer_n be_v worthy_a of_o his_o hire_n and_o to_o take_v two_o coat_n may_v have_v be_v cumbersome_a and_o therefore_o they_o go_v light_n but_o as_o you_o read_v of_o their_o go_v forth_o so_o do_v you_o of_o their_o come_n in_o too_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n and_o our_o saviour_n who_o first_o institute_v also_o disannul_v this_o command_n 36._o and_o bid_v he_o that_o have_v use_n and_o he_o that_o have_v not_o buy_v and_o they_o be_v then_o to_o travel_v from_o one_o region_n to_o another_o be_v to_o plant_v not_o keep_v in_o order_n the_o

before_o name_v for_o wage_n must_v be_v some_o certain_a allowance_n and_o in_o that_o the_o scripture_n allow_v and_o ordain_v a_o maintenance_n and_o pet_n prescribe_v not_o the_o sum_n it_o be_v evident_o clear_a that_o it_o be_v leave_v to_o human_a providence_n to_o order_v that_o and_o so_o paul_n seem_v to_o admonish_v when_o he_o say_v let_v all_o thing_n be_v do_v with_o decency_n and_o in_o all_o thing_n i_o suppose_v this_o be_v include_v and_o since_o you_o have_v nothing_o 26._o else_o to_o upbraid_v our_o ministry_n withal_o you_o rail_v against_o and_o abuse_v paul_n as_o
