to_o teach_v the_o disciple_n to_o observe_v all_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v command_v which_o tenor_n and_o course_n of_o speech_n show_v that_o he_o speak_v to_o they_o of_o the_o discipline_n

to_o have_v command_v his_o apostle_n to_o teach_v their_o disciple_n to_o observe_v i_o proceed_v further_o to_o show_v the_o perpetuity_n of_o these_o foresay_a public_a charge_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v the_o thing_n i_o have_v in_o hand_n the_o evangelist_n say_v that_o our_o saviour_n add_v to_o his_o former_a charge_n and_o commandment_n a_o most_o comfortable_a promise_n say_v behold_v i_o be_o with_o you_o always_o to_o the_o finishinge_v of_o the_o world_n which_o word_n can_v not_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o apostle_n only_o because_o they_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o

time_n &_o after_o also_o with_o such_o as_o by_o their_o doctrine_n shall_v be_v his_o disciple_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n now_o to_o be_v with_o they_o be_v a_o promise_n of_o prosper_v and_o blessing_n to_o his_o church_n the_o ministry_n of_o such_o holy_a thing_n as_o he_o have_v command_v they_o to_o teach_v the_o disciple_n to_o observe_v which_o may_v appear_v by_o the_o evangelist_n mark_v who_o declare_v the_o performance_n of_o this_o promise_n to_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o they_o go_v and_o preach_v the_o lord_n work_v with_o they_o and_o confirm_v the_o word_n by_o sign_n that_o follow_v the_o meaning_n therefore_o of_o the_o promise_n be_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v bless_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n th'administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o discipline_n which_o he_o have_v deliver_v they_o to_o the_o good_a of_o his_o church_n in_o their_o hand_n for_o their_o time_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o quality_n of_o their_o apostolical_a calling_n do_v require_v in_o extraordinary_a gift_n and_o assistance_n and_o after_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v appoint_v for_o the_o ordinary_a service_n of_o his_o people_n according_a as_o their_o ordinary_a function_n shall_v need_v even_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n which_o can_v not_o be_v if_o the_o office_n he_o appoint_v be_v but_o temporary_a and_o not_o perpetual_a therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n by_o pastor_n and_o teacher_n the_o oversight_n of_o the_o church_n by_o elder_n the_o attendance_n of_o the_o poor_a by_o deacon_n be_v the_o necessary_a and_o ordinary_a function_n and_o office_n which_o our_o saviour_n have_v institute_v and_o ordain_v in_o his_o

church_n and_o if_o he_o refuse_v to_o hear_v the_o church_n also_o let_v he_o be_v unto_o thou_o as_o a_o heathen_a man_n and_o as_o a_o publican_n very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o whatsoever_o you_o

be_v gather_v together_o in_o my_o name_n there_o be_o i_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o they_o whereby_o as_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o execution_n &_o discipline_n be_v of_o the_o thing_n which_o our_o saviour_n have_v command_v who_o say_v express_o tell_v the_o church_n so_o be_v it_o plain_a to_o be_v within_o this_o promise_n of_o his_o presence_n &_o assistance_n direct_o promise_v that_o when_o they_o shall_v meet_v together_o in_o his_o name_n that_o be_v by_o his_o authority_n for_o such_o purpose_n and_o call_v upon_o he_o he_o will_v be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o &_o

of_o the_o perpetuity_n of_o these_o foresay_a public_a function_n in_o the_o church_n it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o apostle_n write_v to_o timothy_n to_o teach_v he_o how_o to_o behave_v himself_o in_o the_o church_n which_o be_v the_o house_n of_o the_o live_a god_n instruct_v he_o of_o all_o these_o office_n that_o be_v of_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n both_o pastor_n &_o teacher_n and_o of_o the_o elder_n and_o deacon_n for_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n it_o be_v clear_a in_o that_o he_o require_v in_o every_o one_o to_o be_v call_v to_o that_o ministry_n a_o ability_n to_o teach_v which_o be_v as_o he_o expound_v it_o to_o titus_n to_o deliver_v sound_a that_o be_v holy_a &_o true_a doctrine_n that_o both_o kind_n of_o minister_n be_v here_o to_o be_v understand_v may_v appear_v by_o this_o that_o the_o apostle_n rule_v there_o be_v general_a of_o all_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n as_o his_o indifinite_a speech_n in_o a_o general_a matter_n declare_v but_o pastor_n and_o teacher_n also_o be_v the_o ordinary_a officer_n appoint_v for_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n to_o the_o church_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o 12._o to_o the_o roman_a therefore_o both_o pastor_n &_o teacher_n be_v comprehend_v there_o by_o the_o apostle_n further_o it_o will_v not_o be_v deny_v but_o that_o this_o speech_n in_o the_o 1._o to_o tit._n be_v of_o the_o same_o minister_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o here_o but_o there_o he_o note_v both_o kind_n as_o it_o may_v appear_v by_o mention_n of_o exhortation_n the_o special_a property_n of_o the_o

now_o that_o elder_n be_v there_o also_o comprehend_v by_o that_o name_n thus_o i_o prove_v the_o elder_n office_n be_v a_o ordinary_a office_n in_o the_o church_n as_o appear_v in_o the_o 12._o to_o the_o rom_n &_o in_o the_o 5._o of_o this_o epist_n where_o it_o be_v plain_o note_v that_o there_o be_v elder_n which_o name_n particular_o be_v never_o give_v to_o such_o as_o by_o their_o proper_a

oversight_n of_o conversation_n if_o it_o be_v so_o then_o in_o a_o instruction_n which_o th'apostle_n will_v give_v to_o timothy_n how_o to_o behave_v himself_o in_o all_o matter_n of_o charge_n in_o the_o church_n they_o can_v not_o be_v pretermit_v but_o they_o can_v not_o be_v here_o contain_v under_o the_o name_n of_o bishop_n because_o teach_v be_v require_v of_o they_o which_o belong_v not_o to_o the_o elder_n as_o be_v declare_v in_o the_o 5._o chap._n follow_v therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v they_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v under_o the_o name_n of_o deacon_n moreover_o in_o so_o

as_o be_v in_o misery_n so_o long_o as_o there_o continewe_v such_o in_o the_o church_n which_o will_v be_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v use_v of_o the_o help_n

no_o great_a question_n or_o rather_o to_o confess_v it_o the_o great_a question_n be_v of_o the_o elder_n concern_v who_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o they_o be_v appoint_v in_o their_o
