whereas_o you_o say_v that_o christ_n go_v up_o into_o the_o mountain_n and_o yet_o not_o cover_v in_o the_o earth_n and_o so_o he_o go_v into_o the_o water_n and_o yet_o not_o cover_v with_o it_o answ_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v baptise_a in_o the_o mountain_n but_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v baptise_a in_o the_o water_n and_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o philip_n and_o the_o eunuch_n but_o it_o will_v he_o grant_v that_o christ_n may_v go_v many_o time_n into_o the_o water_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v cover_v in_o it_o but_o it_o can_v be_v imagine_v that_o john_n can_v dip_v or_o plunge_v or_o over-whelm_a or_o sink_v as_o the_o word_n baptizo_fw-la will_v render_v it_o christ_n into_o the_o water_n and_o yet_o christ_n not_o cover_v in_o water_n and_o beside_o all_o this_o the_o proper_a signification_n of_o baptism_n be_v a_o burial_n and_o resurrection_n as_o i_o before_o have_v show_v yet_o notwithstanding_o i_o shall_v give_v a_o few_o reason_n here_o to_o prove_v that_o baptism_n be_v dip_v or_o plunge_v and_o the_o first_o reason_n be_v reas_n 1._o because_o the_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d render_v no_o other_o thing_n as_o a_o proper_a derivation_n but_o mergo_fw-la or_o immergo_fw-la which_o be_v to_o dip_v to_o plunge_v to_o overwhelm_v to_o thrust_v into_o the_o water_n or_o to_o sink_v and_o such_o like_a word_n as_o these_o which_o show_v that_o the_o person_n baptise_a be_v to_o be_v cover_v in_o water_n reas_n 2._o second_o christ_n be_v so_o baptize_v namely_o plunge_v as_o you_o have_v affirm_v in_o your_o former_a book_n and_o we_o be_v to_o follow_v his_o example_n therefore_o be_v to_o be_v cover_v as_o christ_n be_v in_o baptism_n reas_n 3._o and_o three_o it_o signify_v a_o burial_n as_o say_v the_o apostle_n paul_n rom._n 2.4_o col._n 2.12_o and_o a_o man_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v bury_v unless_o he_o be_v cover_v with_o earth_n or_o the_o like_a object_n and_o this_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o answer_n of_o your_o objection_n p._n 7._o where_o you_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v bury_v in_o a_o rock_n and_o have_v no_o earth_n to_o cover_v he_o and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v say_v you_o that_o person_n baptize_v must_v be_v cover_v in_o the_o water_n answ_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o

say_v although_o i_o suppose_v you_o have_v forget_v it_o that_o as_o jonah_n be_v three_o day_n and_o three_o night_n in_o the_o whale_n belly_n so_o shall_v the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v three_o day_n

heart_n of_o the_o earth_n from_o whence_o

god_n never_o do_v appoint_v any_o man_n to_o be_v wicked_a yet_o he_o have_v of_o old_a foresee_a wickedness_n and_o also_o have_v appoint_v punishment_n for_o it_o question_n 2._o have_v not_o god_n elect_v one_o sort_n of_o person_n to_o salvation_n before_o the_o world_n be_v from_o whence_o they_o can_v fall_v and_o reject_v another_o sort_n which_o can_v be_v recover_v answ_n nay_o for_o then_o all_o do_v not_o fall_v in_o adam_n neither_o be_v all_o justify_v by_o christ_n but_o all_o do_v fall_v by_o adam_n sin_n and_o all_o be_v justify_v by_o christ_n righteousness_n rom._n 5.18_o

that_o many_o time_n those_o that_o have_v be_v wicked_a have_v become_v righteous_a and_o of_o bad_a have_v be_v make_v good_a and_o also_o such_o as_o have_v be_v righteous_a and_o good_a have_v become_v wicked_a and_o bad_a as_o the_o angel_n which_o be_v once_o good_a be_v now_o bad_a also_o hymeneus_n and_o alexander_n 1_o tim._n 1.19_o 20._o and_o those_o speak_v of_o 1_o tim._n 5.12_o and_o 15._o who_o have_v condemnation_n or_o be_v condemn_v because_o they_o have_v forsake_v their_o first_o faith_n and_o saul_n have_v once_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o be_v belove_v and_o yet_o he_o become_v wicked_a by_o reason_n of_o his_o wickedness_n about_o the_o business_n of_o the_o amalekite_n and_o the_o good_a spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n leave_v he_o and_o he_o be_v reject_v but_o to_o pass_v this_o and_o many_o such_o instance_n which_o may_v be_v add_v if_o i_o have_v time_n consider_v this_o if_o god_n have_v elect_v one_o sort_n of_o man_n to_o salvation_n from_o whence_o they_o can_v fall_v before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n and_o reprobate_v another_o sort_n that_o can_v be_v save_v then_o first_o be_v not_o man_n ruin_n from_o the_o lord_n if_o his_o decree_n be_v thus_o make_v before_o man_n be_v make_v which_o so_o to_o affirm_v be_v to_o affirm_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n deny_v and_o so_o to_o put_v the_o lie_n upon_o god_n second_o if_o that_o doctrine_n be_v true_a then_o to_o what_o end_n be_v preach_v and_o the_o like_a for_o if_o the_o elect_a be_v never_o preach_v unto_o they_o can_v miscarry_v for_o their_o election_n stand_v sure_a and_o their_o salvation_n be_v certain_a and_o if_o they_o have_v all_o the_o preach_n to_o in_o the_o world_n it_o add_v nothing_o unto_o they_o for_o the_o end_n of_o all_o mean_n be_v salvation_n and_o that_o they_o have_v whether_o they_o ever_o hear_v the_o sound_n of_o the_o gospel_n yea_o or_o nay_o and_o therefore_o if_o that_o opinion_n be_v true_a preach_v be_v but_o of_o very_a little_a use_n unto_o the_o elect_n for_o they_o shall_v have_v have_v salvation_n if_o they_o have_v never_o hear_v of_o it_o and_o second_o it_o be_v no_o way_n beneficial_a to_o the_o reprobate_n because_o if_o he_o have_v all_o the_o preach_n unto_o in_o the_o world_n it_o will_v do_v he_o no_o good_a according_a to_o that_o opinion_n because_o he_o can_v never_o be_v recover_v out_o of_o that_o estate_n and_o condition_n by_o it_o so_o than_o that_o opinion_n be_v very_o dangerous_a first_o because_o it_o make_v god_n decree_n the_o author_n of_o sin_n for_o where_o god_n decree_v the_o end_n he_o decree_v the_o mean_n lead_v to_o the_o end_n second_o it_o make_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n of_o none_o effect_n for_o the_o elect_n can_v perish_v if_o they_o be_v never_o preach_v unto_o and_o the_o reprobate_n can_v be_v recover_v by_o all_o the_o preach_n to_o in_o the_o world_n three_o it_o destroy_v all_o christian_n assurance_n and_o build_v man_n upon_o qualification_n and_o not_o upon_o promise_n for_o this_o reason_n because_o if_o there_o be_v but_o a_o very_a small_a number_n elect_v and_o they_o be_v not_o distinguish_v by_o name_n but_o by_o qualification_n than_o no_o man_n can_v prove_v his_o election_n but_o by_o his_o qualification_n and_o that_o be_v to_o build_v up_o man_n in_o themselves_o and_o not_o upon_o free_a grace_n in_o a_o promise_n and_o so_o their_o election_n be_v many_o time_n question_v when_o they_o be_v overtake_v in_o temptation_n and_o have_v not_o the_o fruit_n of_o election_n appear_v in_o they_o especial_o when_o they_o consider_v how_o great_a enjoyment_n and_o spiritual_a gift_n and_o heavenly_a taste_n man_n may_v attain_v unto_o and_o yet_o may_v not_o be_v in_o the_o election_n and_o four_o that_o opinion_n be_v the_o very_a fountain_n head_n as_o i_o may_v say_v of_o uncleanness_n for_o what_o be_v the_o plea_n of_o wicked_a man_n when_o they_o be_v reprove_v for_o sin_n in_o short_a thus_o say_v they_o if_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o have_v give_v i_o grace_n i_o shall_v have_v do_v as_o other_o man_n but_o nevertheless_o if_o i_o be_v elect_v god_n will_v have_v a_o time_n to_o call_v i_o for_o it_o be_v not_o in_o my_o power_n to_o do_v good_a of_o myself_o and_o if_o i_o be_v not_o elect_v it_o be_v not_o my_o strive_n and_o endeavour_n will_v do_v i_o any_o good_a and_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o corrupt_a judgement_n and_o corrupt_a mind_n man_n give_v up_o themselves_o up_o to_o walk_v in_o such_o course_n as_o the_o flesh_n and_o carnal_a mind_n lu_v after_o five_o if_o that_o opinion_n be_v true_a that_o god_n have_v elect_v one_o sort_n and_o reprobate_v another_o sort_n and_o that_o before_o the_o world_n be_v than_o the_o wicked_a be_v damn_v for_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o will_v plain_o appear_v for_o what_o god_n have_v decree_v to_o bring_v to_o pass_v he_o do_v decree_n to_o do_v it_o by_o mean_n as_o first_o to_o save_v the_o elect_a through_o holiness_n and_o to_o damn_v the_o wicked_a for_o their_o wickedness_n and_o one_o he_o melt_v and_o soften_v that_o he_o may_v yield_v and_o be_v obedient_a and_o the_o other_o he_o harden_v that_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v in_o their_o destruction_n and_o if_o god_n do_v harden_v man_n heart_n to_o do_v wicked_o be_v it_o not_o plain_a that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n they_o shall_v so_o do_v for_o god_n work_v all_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o counsel_n of_o his_o own_o will_n and_o than_o if_o so_o that_o god_n harden_v they_o to_o do_v wicked_o and_o then_o deny_v they_o because_o they_o do_v wicked_o do_v not_o god_n damn_v the_o wicked_a for_o do_v his_o will_n or_o for_o the_o do_v of_o what_o he_o appoint_v they_o to_o do_v let_v all_o judge_n for_o so_o say_v some_o that_o man_n be_v appoint_v of_o god_n unto_o wickedness_n and_o disobedience_n from_o this_o scripture_n 1_o pet_n 2.8_o but_o how_o that_o can_v be_v evil_a or_o disobedience_n for_o man_n to_o do_v what_o god_n have_v appoint_v they_o to_o do_v as_o yet_o i_o know_v not_o and_o six_o and_o last_o if_o this_o opinion_n be_v true_a than_o we_o may_v not_o blame_v the_o wicked_a for_o any_o of_o their_o wickedness_n but_o conclude_v that_o the_o fault_n be_v in_o he_o if_o it_o be_v wickedness_n that_o they_o commit_v that_o do_v decree_v it_o and_o appoint_v it_o to_o be_v do_v and_o thus_o god_n by_o this_o vain_a and_o wicked_a opinion_n be_v make_v the_o author_n of_o all_o the_o wickedness_n which_o be_v commit_v and_o how_o dangerous_a it_o be_v i_o leave_v the_o reader_n to_o judge_v this_o short_a word_n premise_v and_o pass_v to_o the_o next_o thing_n considerable_a although_o i_o will_v have_v answer_v some_o objection_n about_o this_o point_n but_o because_o i_o find_v none_o material_a cite_v by_o my_o antagonist_n but_o that_o which_o i_o have_v answer_v in_o my_o former_a treatise_n and_o also_o because_o my_o time_n be_v very_o precious_a at_o present_a and_o call_v for_o brevity_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v now_o come_v to_o speak_v to_o the_o last_o particular_a in_o order_n which_o shall_v be_v the_o conclusion_n of_o this_o first_o part_n of_o my_o book_n which_o be_v about_o the_o kingdom_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n and_o his_o saint_n upon_o earth_n find_v but_o little_a

here_o be_v comprehend_v in_o this_o subject_a of_o discourse_n such_o good_a news_n as_o will_v doubtless_o comfort_v the_o heart_n of_o every_o one_o that_o wait_v for_o the_o lord_n jesus_n
