and_o 1_o cor._n 11._o 26._o than_o i_o be_v sometime_o former_o only_o i_o think_v fit_a to_o give_v one_o reason_n at_o present_a in_o particular_a as_o to_o each_o and_o another_o in_o general_a as_o to_o both_o my_o reason_n why_o water-baptism_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v matth._n 28._o 19_o as_o a_o thing_n command_v of_o the_o lord_n to_o be_v do_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o not_o the_o baptism_n with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n because_o we_o no_o where_o find_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n such_o a_o phrase_n or_o manner_n of_o speech_n that_o ever_o any_o man_n but_o christ_n alone_a who_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n do_v baptise_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o have_v power_n so_o to_o do_v it_o be_v peculiar_o attribute_v to_o christ_n who_o work_n it_o be_v and_o still_o be_v and_o to_o no_o other_o man_n or_o man_n as_o john_n declare_v he_o that_o come_v after_o i_o shall_v baptise_v you_o he_o do_v not_o say_v they_o that_o come_v after_o i_o but_o he_o with_o fire_n and_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o as_o to_o that_o distinction_n former_o give_v by_o i_o and_o other_o that_o though_o the_o apostle_n neither_o can_v nor_o do_v baptize_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n principal_o yet_o instrumental_o or_o ministerial_o they_o may_v and_o do_v but_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o say_v where_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o distinguish_v nor_o give_v any_o ground_n of_o such_o a_o distinction_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o give_v it_o but_o the_o scripture_n give_v no_o such_o ground_n and_o the_o scripture_n phrase_n and_o manner_n of_o speech_n be_v strict_o to_o be_v observe_v in_o all_o such_o case_n so_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o put_v our_o private_a gloss_n on_o christ_n commandment_n as_o it_o be_v a_o most_o absurd_a distinction_n to_o say_v though_o god_n create_v the_o world_n principal_o yet_o angel_n do_v create_v it_o instrumental_o or_o to_o say_v christ_n redeem_v the_o world_n principal_o by_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n but_o the_o martyr_n redeem_v the_o world_n by_o their_o death_n instrumental_o sure_o as_o these_o distinction_n be_v false_a and_o unwarrantable_a so_o be_v that_o other_o about_o baptise_v with_o the_o spirit_n instrumental_o and_o ministerial_o my_o reason_n why_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n mention_v 1_o cor._n 11._o 26._o be_v his_o outward_a come_v because_o the_o outward_a practice_n of_o break_v bread_n in_o the_o supper_n be_v appoint_v as_o a_o commemoration_n in_o a_o solemn_a way_n of_o his_o body_n that_o be_v break_v for_o we_o on_o the_o cross_n and_o of_o his_o bodily_a suffering_n and_o humiliation_n for_o he_o do_v not_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o spirit_n but_o this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o it_o be_v the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n that_o say_v this_o therefore_o as_o the_o practice_n of_o break_v the_o bread_n with_o prayer_n and_o thanksgiving_n and_o eat_v it_o and_o pour_v out_o wine_n into_o the_o cup_n and_o drink_v it_o be_v a_o solemn_a commemoration_n of_o his_o body_n that_o be_v break_v for_o we_o and_o his_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o we_o so_o the_o believer_n be_v enjoin_v to_o do_v it_o until_o his_o come_n again_o that_o come_v again_o must_v needs_o signify_v his_o bodily_a come_v for_o he_o be_v spiritual_o come_v both_o then_o and_o in_o all_o age_n to_o the_o faithful_a that_o the_o live_n and_o faithful_a remembrance_n of_o his_o last_o come_n may_v be_v preserve_v by_o that_o solemn_a practice_n and_o also_o the_o unspeakable_a benefit_n that_o the_o faithful_a haveby_o his_o suffering_n for_o as_o preach_v by_o word_n do_v hold_v forth_o christ_n crucify_a by_o audible_a sign_n to_o the_o ear_n of_o the_o faithful_a so_o do_v these_o outward_a thing_n due_o practise_v by_o visible_a
