Chap. IIII. He requireth to be esteemed for his office, but regardeth not to be praised of man for his vertue: considering that neither his ovvne conscience is a sufficient iudge thereof, but onely God vvho seeth al. 8. He toucheth them for contemning in their pride, the Apostles them selues as miserable: 18 threatening to come to those proude Falseapostles vvho vvere the authors of al these schismes.

1    noteSo let a man esteeme vs as the ministers of Christ, and the dispensers of the mysteries of God.

2   Here novv is required among the dispensers that a man be found faithful.

3   But to me it is a thing of lest account, to be iudged of you, or of mans day: but I iudge not my self neither.

4   For I am not guilty in conscience of any thing:09Q1058but I am not iustified herein: but he that iudgeth me, is our Lord.

5   Therfore iudge not before the time: vntil our Lord do come, vvho also wil lighten the hidd&ebar; things of darkenes, and vvil manifest the counsels of the hartes: & then the praise shal be to euery man of God. &cross4;

6   But these things, brethren, note I haue transfigured into my self and Apollo, for you: that in vs you may learne, one not to be puffed vp against an other, aboue that is vvritten.

7   For vvho discerneth thee? Or vvhat hast thou that thou hast not receiued? And if thou hast receiued, what doest thou glorie as though thou hast not receiued?

8   Now you are filled, now are you become riche: without vs you reigne: & I would to God you did reigne, that vve also might reigne vvith you.

9    noteFor I thinke that God hath shevved vs Apostles the last, as it vvere deputed to death: because note vve are made a spectacle to the vvorld, and to Angels and men.

10   Vve are fooles for Christ: but you vvise in Christ. vve vveake: but you strong. you noble, but vve base.

11   Vntil this houre we doe both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are beaten vvith buffets, and are vvanderers,

12   and labour vvorking vvith our ovvne handes. vve are cursed: and do blesse. vve are persecuted: and susteine it.

13   vve are blasphemed: and vve beseeche. vve are made the refuse of this vvorld, the drosse of al euen vntil novv.

14   Not to confound you, do I vvrite these things: but as my deerest children I admonish you. &cross4;

15   For note if you haue ten thousand pædagoges in Christ: yet not many fathers. For in Christ Iesvs by the Gospel I begat you. &cross4;

16   I beseeche you therfore be folovvers of me.

17   Therfore haue I sent to you Timothee, vvho is my deerest sonne and faithful in our Lord: vvho vvil put you in minde of my vvaies that are in Christ Iesvs, as euery vvhere in euery Church I teach.

18   As though I vvould not come to you, so certaine are puffed vp.

19   But I vvil come to you quickly, if our Lord vvil: and vvil knovv not the vvordes

-- --

of them that be puffed vp, but the povver.

20   For the kingdom of God is not in vvordes, but in povver.

21   Vvhat vvil you?09Q1059in rodde that I come to you: or in charitie, and the spirit of mildnes?
