to_o preacher_n and_o man_n in_o office_n and_o not_o to_o gift_a brethren_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o connexion_n and_o scope_n of_o the_o place_n first_o it_o be_v answer_v that_o this_o place_n do_v

say_a they_o do_v not_o preach_v as_o man_n in_o office_n but_o only_o as_o gift_a brethren_n and_o therefore_o though_o those_o name_n do_v agree_v to_o man_n in_o office_n yet_o that_o do_v not_o

in_o regard_n that_o to_o preach_v employ_v a_o public_a office_n and_o mission_n rom._n 10._o 14._o so_o that_o for_o any_o man_n to_o take_v upon_o he_o a_o public_a office_n which_o be_v not_o a_o

in_o private_a way_n of_o edification_n each_o member_n of_o the_o body_n according_a to_o its_o own_o measure_n ephes._n 4._o 16._o but_o they_o be_v not_o out_o of_o their_o station_n in_o this_o as_o a_o private_a man_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o work_n of_o a_o magistrate_n judge_n or_o colonel_n because_o they_o find_v that_o private_a man_n in_o scripture_n have_v teach_v public_o without_o

instruction_n and_o commission_n from_o the_o apostle_n to_o do_v what_o they_o do_v and_o so_o they_o do_v it_o not_o without_o a_o mission_n however_o the_o case_n be_v extraordinary_a and_o it_o do_v no_o way_n follow_v if_o where_o no_o officer_n be_v to_o do_v a_o work_n private_a person_n be_v furnish_v with_o more_o notable_a gift_n than_o any_o now_o ordinary_o be_v may_v endeavour_v
