Concerning Ministers made by the will of man.  
A Paper concerning such as are made Ministers by the will of man, and an exhortation to all sober minded people to come out from among them.  
What ministry is that which is upheld by a Law given forth in man's will contrary to the Law of God, if it be not Antichristian? and whether or no their ministry was from God that haled out of the synogoves, o● those that were haled? And whether Paul's ministry was not according to what you now persecute, who went into the Synagogues to reason with them, after the same manner as we do now, who received not his ministry from man, neither had it by man, though he was brought up at the feet of Gamaliell, he counted that which he learned there, as dung and dross, in comparison of the excellency of Jesus Christ; and now with the Same light, your form of prayer, and form off preaching without the power, it is as dross and dung to me, and to all that live in the life, who know Christ to be the high Priest over the household of God, whose Government is on his shoulders, who will not acquit the wicked, neither shall the evil doer escape his hand; for the hand of the Lord is stretched out, and by the baring of his arm are we Saved from all our transgressions, which by no other means could be done; for when I wallowing in my blood, and no eye pitied me, nor none could cure my disease, when I went through the vale of misery, in the cloudy and dark day, when no light appeared, than was I following men, but darkness was over the whole earth in me, which was my great sorrow, but sometimes hope was an anchor, that it should not be always so, but when the flood came I was as one overwhelmed with sorrow, for all my actings, and my prayers returned in vain; while I was acting for life, the living suffered in me, which groaned for deliverance, and the groans of that was heard, and not my prayers, than the Son of Righteousness appeared to me, with healing under his wings, than he rent the veil, and uncovered all that I had done, and showed me the book wherein all my actions were set down, that I had acted against him ever since I was a child, and indeed I could read in it, and knew what was written there, then was the acceptable year of the Lord God, and the day of vengeance to the ungodly in me, than was the vials of the wrath of God poured forth upon me without mixture, and indeed it was given me to drink deeply but I desired that I might be spared, but it was to let me see that I had Sinned against God, and I should be●r his indignation, until he did plead my cause, for I was condemned, but the Blood of the Son of God ransomed me and brought me into freedom, which by no other means could be done; then he showed me his doctrine, and writ his Law in me, and placed his word in my heart, which is an everlasting witness for himself, and against all the world, that their deeds are evil, who by his power hath shaken, and caused all my bones to tremble, and to stagger like a drunken man, but the remainder of himself could not be Shaken, for he was stricken, and by his stripes were we healed, and by his light we see all hirelings, and persecutors to be out of his doctrine; therefore we deny them; So all people who fear God come out from among them (lest you
