such_o significant_a rite_n in_o religious_a worship_n for_o which_o the_o bishop_n produce_v scriptural-president_n and_o by_o which_o he_o think_v this_o ceremony_n of_o cross_v equal_o warrant_v for_o that_o of_o christ_n wash_n his_o disciple_n foot_n i_o can_v see_v what_o it_o shall_v signify_v to_o his_o purpose_n for_o who_o doubt_n but_o christ_n may_v teach_v his_o disciple_n humility_n by_o practise_v before_o their_o eye_n a_o common_a but_o in_o he_o a_o most_o condescend_v instance_n of_o it_o or_o that_o he_o may_v improve_v that_o occasion_n as_o he_o do_v almost_o all_o occurrent_n to_o remind_v they_o of_o the_o necessity_n of_o be_v wash_v in_o his_o blood_n or_o purify_v by_o his_o grace_n but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o our_o appoint_v a_o new_a external_n badge_n of_o our_o dedication_n to_o christ_n beside_o that_o he_o have_v appoint_v already_o for_o the_o second_o rite_n of_o dip_v entire_o under_o water_n in_o baptism_n if_o the_o bp._n have_v prove_v both_o that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n do_v certain_o refer_v to_o the_o practice_n of_o dip_v under_o water_n assign_v this_o spiritual_a signification_n to_o that_o particular_a rite_n and_o yet_o that_o the_o christian_n of_o that_o age_n have_v arbitrary_o and_o without_o any_o warrant_n from_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n set_v up_o this_o mode_n of_o baptise_v as_o a_o religious_a rite_n to_o signify_v their_o obligation_n to_o die_v to_o sin_n and_o live_v to_o righteousness_n in_o conformity_n to_o the_o death_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n then_o indeed_o this_o instance_n have_v signify_v something_o to_o his_o purpose_n but_o unless_o he_o prove_v both_o these_o particular_n it_o signify_v nothing_o and_o the_o same_o answer_n may_v be_v apply_v to_o the_o next_o rite_n viz._n the_o change_n of_o clothes_n he_o shall_v have_v first_o prove_v that_o the_o apostle_n word_n do_v certain_o refer_v to_o such_o a_o religious_a rite_n practise_v in_o baptism_n to_o signify_v our_o obligation_n to_o put_v off_o the_o old_a man_n and_o put_v on_o the_o new_a and_o then_o prove_v this_o be_v a_o rite_n mere_o introdue_v by_o arbitrary_a custom_n without_o any_o warrant_n from_o christ_n for_o if_o the_o apostle_n expression_n refer_v to_o these_o two_o rite_n as_o use_v to_o these_o purpose_n it_o will_v be_v much_o more_o reasonable_a to_o conclude_v that_o they_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n and_o consequent_o shall_v still_o be_v retain_v and_o use_v by_o we_o unless_o we_o suppose_v that_o as_o to_o the_o former_a that_o maxim_n of_o our_o saviour_n will_v warrant_v our_o omission_n of_o it_o in_o this_o cold_a climate_n that_o god_n will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_n and_o on_o this_o supposition_n the_o bishop_n can_v draw_v no_o argument_n from_o hence_o to_o his_o purpose_n for_o the_o feast_n of_o charity_n and_o the_o holy_a kiss_n i_o do_v not_o see_v that_o they_o be_v religious_a rite_n at_o all_o but_o rather_o real_a expression_n of_o their_o mutual_a charity_n if_o the_o rich_a sort_n in_o a_o congregation_n shall_v on_o the_o lord_n day_n invite_v the_o poor_a to_o dinner_n this_o will_v be_v such_o a_o real_a instance_n of_o their_o love_n agreeable_a to_o our_o saviour_n advice_n about_o feast_v luke_n 14.12_o 13_o 14._o as_o those_o feast_n of_o

probable_o be_v say_v of_o the_o holy_a kiss_n which_o be_v then_o a_o common_a instance_n of_o mutual_a respect_n and_o amity_n among_o person_n in_o their_o ordinary_a assembly_n be_v therefore_o innocent_o continue_v in_o their_o religious_a one_o as_o no_o doubt_n we_o may_v there_o pay_v the_o same_o mark_n of_o our_o respect_n and_o friendship_n to_o each_o other_o when_o the_o public_a

reasonable_a to_o suppose_v they_o have_v a_o temporary_a institution_n than_o that_o they_o have_v no_o other_o warrant_n than_o mere_a arbitrary_a custom_n and_o upon_o either_o of_o these_o supposition_n there_o can_v be_v no_o show_n of_o any_o argument_n draw_v from_o they_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o scripture_n warrant_v we_o to_o institute_v a_o religious_a rite_n of_o our_o own_o

that_o which_o the_o bishop_n be_v concern_v to_o produce_v a_o scriptural_a warrant_n for_o and_o therefore_o i_o may_v just_o add_v here_o that_o though_o the_o bishop_n argument_n have_v prove_v that_o the_o scripture_n warrant_v we_o to_o express_v our_o glory_v in_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n by_o cross_v ourselves_o as_o the_o primitive_a christian_n do_v in_o their_o common_a
