be_v many_o of_o our_o church_n be_v not_o without_o it_o the_o power_n of_o the_o key_n you_o well_o know_v be_v exercise_v in_o many_o of_o our_o congregation_n that_o which_o you_o object_n be_v want_v of_o true_a baptism_n and_o give_v the_o lord_n supper_n to_o a_o promiscuous_a company_n i_o prove_v they_o have_v true_a baptism_n thus_o if_o the_o baptism_n they_o have_v in_o our_o church_n be_v better_o than_o that_o they_o have_v in_o you_o than_o it_o be_v true_a baptism_n now_o that_o it_o be_v so_o i_o thus_o evince_n that_o baptism_n that_o be_v dispense_v by_o a_o authorize_v administrator_n be_v better_a than_o that_o which_o be_v administer_v by_o such_o as_o be_v not_o authorize_v but_o our_o baptism_n be_v so_o administer_v so_o be_v not_o you_o that_o our_o administrator_n be_v lawful_o authorize_v you_o hear_v i_o prove_v at_o large_a in_o a_o full_a discourse_n and_o then_o i_o take_v away_o all_o material_a objection_n against_o our_o call_n and_o manner_n of_o entrance_n into_o it_o to_o which_o i_o hear_v you_o then_o say_v nothing_o though_o the_o day_n after_o you_o mention_v one_o of_o the_o objection_n i_o put_v viz._n that_o we_o have_v our_o ordination_n from_o the_o bishop_n they_o they_o from_o the_o pope_n he_o he_o from_o the_o devil_n but_o to_o this_o i_o give_v two_o answer_n viz._n that_o our_o bishop_n be_v not_o antichristian_a because_o they_o have_v truth_n of_o doctrine_n second_o if_o they_o be_v yet_o it_o make_v not_o our_o call_a null_n the_o reason_n at_o large_a you_o have_v in_o your_o note_n if_o you_o please_v to_o deal_v faithful_o in_o overthrow_v they_o i_o shall_v take_v it_o thankful_o evident_a it_o be_v that_o our_o administrator_n be_v set_v apart_o by_o solemn_a call_v and_o

say_v you_o have_v authority_n from_o jesus_n christ_n i_o wouldfain_o i_o can_v never_o yet_o see_v that_o question_v so_o frequent_o put_v to_o you_o anwer_v to_o the_o least_o colourable_a satisfaction_n i_o entreat_v you_o to_o do_v it_o viz._n how_o come_v you_o by_o this_o authority_n from_o jesus_n to_o baptise_v immediate_o or_o mediate_o if_o you_o say_v immediate_o you_o must_v either_o show_v a_o new_a commission_n or_o make_v it_o appear_v by_o a_o immediate_a call_v your_o name_n be_v put_v into_o that_o only_a write_a commission_n so_o you_o call_v it_o and_o if_o your_o call_n be_v extraordinary_a let_v i_o ask_v you_o as_o the_o jew_n do_v christ_n john_n 2._o 18._o whereby_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o you_o do_v these_o thing_n by_o divine_a authority_n show_v

one_o kind_n or_o other_o if_o you_o say_v your_o call_v be_v mediate_v from_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n than_o our_o demand_n be_v whether_o your_o call_n come_v from_o a_o church_n in_o order_n build_v up_o according_a to_o the_o true_a gospel_n platform_n or_o from_o a_o company_n of_o believer_n out_o of_o gospel_n order_n i._n e._n ungathered_a you_o will_v not_o say_v sure_a from_o the_o larter_n because_o you_o deny_v the_o minister_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n to_o be_v a_o true_a ministry_n because_o they_o be_v not_o call_v by_o a_o true_a church_n i._n e._n a_o society_n of_o baptise_a believer_n and_o put_v into_o order_n according_a to_o your_o way_n if_o you_o shall_v say_v you_o have_v your_o call_n from_o a_o church_n ungathered_a you_o will_v proclaim_v your_o call_v to_o be_v antichristian_a from_o your_o own_o principle_n and_o yourselves_o scihsmaticks_n by_o separate_v from_o a_o true_a ministry_n if_o you_o say_v your_o call_n be_v from_o a_o baptise_a congregation_n than_o the_o question_n still_o be_v whether_o this_o congregation_n be_v of_o your_o own_o or_o some_o other_o gather_v if_o you_o gather_v they_o than_o you_o gather_v without_o call_n for_o none_o can_v elect_v till_o they_o be_v baptise_a and_o in_o a_o way_n of_o gospel_n order_n if_o the_o congregation_n that_o choose_v and_o call_v you_o be_v of_o another_o gather_n and_o baptise_v than_o we_o ask_v who_o call_v than_o man_n to_o gather_v and_o baptise_v and_o so_o up_o high_o you_o must_v needs_o find_v out_o some_o one_o that_o be_v a_o baptize_v person_n and_o call_v by_o a_o baptise_a congregation_n by_o who_o the_o first_o administrator_n in_o england_n be_v baptise_a from_o who_o to_o derive_v it_o successive_o if_o you_o can_v find_v such_o a_o man_n yet_o you_o know_v two_o scruple_n remain_v still_o which_o you_o be_v desire_v to_o remove_v the_o first_o be_v how_o that_o baptizer_n have_v his_o call_n and_o so_o backward_o to_o the_o first_o and_o he_o it_o seem_v must_v either_o be_v one_o who_o baptise_a himself_o or_o one_o who_o rest_v content_v with_o his_o own_o infant-baptism_n but_o this_o you_o hold_v nul_fw-fr and_o for_o that_o you_o will_v not_o say_v there_o be_v the_o least_o colour_n in_o scripture_n or_o if_o neither_o of_o these_o than_o he_o must_v prove_v himself_o send_v of_o god_n to_o begin_v a_o new_a institution_n as_o john_n be_v even_o more_o than_o a_o prophet_n for_o this_o way_n be_v not_o till_o 1500._o year_n after_o the_o other_o scruple_n be_v this_o by_o what_o authority_n that_o man_n so_o call_v baptise_a the_o first_o person_n that_o be_v baptise_a in_o england_n see_v to_o baptise_v be_v a_o act_n of_o office_n and_o power_n and_o no_o man_n can_v be_v a_o lawful_a officer_n or_o administrator_n unless_o elect_v to_o that_o authority_n by_o baptize_v person_n i_o need_v not_o acquaint_v you_o how_o you_o be_v press_v with_o these_o question_n and_o the_o result_n that_o be_v gather_v viz._n that_o you_o have_v no_o mission_n from_o god_n or_o his_o church_n but_o satan_n have_v fill_v your_o heart_n with_o blind_a zeal_n and_o send_v you_o abroad_o to_o profane_v
