Fifthly, The Spirit appoints to himselfe officers and ministers in the Church, therefore he is God, (Acts 13.2.) The holy Ghost said, separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.
Sixthly, The holy Ghost furnisheth those Officers whom he calleth with power and gifts, as he pleaseth, that they may be fit for the work or ministry of the Gospel (1 Cor: 12.8.11.) To one is given by the Spirit, the word of wisdom, to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit, &c. But all these worketh that one and the self-same Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. Now, who can give wisdom and knowledge, who can give them prerogatively, following in this distribution, or division of gifts, no rule, nor giving any other reason of it but his own will, except God only?
