live in newness of Life amongst the Saints in the Kingdom of God II. When one is buried he ought to be covered all over with Earth else 't is no Burial II. When one is baptized he ought to be covered all over with Water or else 't is no Baptism Which fully appears 1. From the Nature of Burial 2. From the proper and Metaphorical Significations of the Word as is largely opened 3. From Scripture-Practice which always was by Dipping as all the Learned that are impartial acknowledg 4. From the constant Practice of Antiquity who retained the right Form until Clinical Baptism viz. such who deferred their Baptism till their sick Bed came to be used about Cyprian's time in the third Century These Clinici so called because 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 baptized in their Bed were such as delayed their Baptism until their Death-Beds because they believed it would take away all Sin and that there was no Pardon if they sinned after receiving it yet not daring to go out of the World without this great Badge of Christianity deferr'd it till they thought they were in danger of Death And since they could not without peril of Life be dipp'd Sprinkling was invented to serve the turn For a like Reason as was said before they changed the Mode of Administration with respect to Infants when their Baptism was introduced out of regard to their tender Constitutions especially in cold Countries Seasons This was the Original of Sprinkling and sprung purely from the abuse of Baptism and the Want of the right Subject as by Divine Aid shall be demonstrated in a particular Sheet impartially and from undoubted Authority One may with as much reason be said to be buried when Clay or Earth is thrown upon his Head only as to be baptized when Water is poured upon his Head or Face And if the one be no Burying 't is as certain the other is no Baptism And he that affirms that Sprinkling may represent or symbolically express the Death Burial and Resurrection of Christ does at the same time speak without colour of Truth Word of Sence and against all the Reason in the World As breaking of the Sacramental Bread visibly betokens that Christ's Body was broke and as the pouring forth of the Sacramental Wine represents the gushing forth of his Blood so the Sacramental Dipping in Water viz. Baptism represents his Death and Burial and the coming from under the Water his Resurrection 1 Cor. 15.2 3 4 c. III. Burial precedes the Resurrection or raising of the dead Body to a State of Immortality III. The Immersion of the Party baptized precedes his Emersion or coming out of the Water which symbolizes or answers to two things 1. The Resur●ection of Christ 2. Our rising again to Newness of Life Buried with him in Baptism wherein ye are also risen with him c. as in the Text. Inferences FRom the whole we may rationally conclude That the Administration of this great Ordinance by Sprinkling which comports not with the Literal nor Metaphorical Signification of the Word nor those great Mysteries represented by it viz. the Death Burial and Resurrection of Christ is disorderly and should be rectified 2. It is a Motive to excite us to admire and reverence the great Grace and Goodness of Christ who hath given us such a visible Symbol of his Death Burial and Resurrection not only to confirm our Faith but also to prevent our being deceived by any seducing Spirits 3. It is not to be wondred at that such as deny the Man Christ Jesus but preach up the Light within to be a Saviour should reject these two great Ordinances stated in the Scripture viz. Baptism and the Lord's Supper because such as deny the Substance are necessitated to deny the Sign Persons of this Judgment may be easily confuted For when ever the Term Baptism is mentioned and God or Christ represented as the Agent it must be understood of the Baptism of the Spirit in the Sence before spoken of When ever Baptism is mentioned as the Act of any Apostle or Minister of the Gospel it denotes Water-Baptism because these have neither Power nor Commission to baptize with the Spirit and with Fire And when ever the Baptism of Blood and Suffering is mentioned it must be understood of Persecutors or ungodly Men who murther destroy or afflict the Godly for neither God without Blasphemy nor good Men without a wrong application of the Term may be said to baptize that way So that when we meet with the Act of Baptism as the Act of a good Man we must of necessity understand it of Water-Baptism in the same Method and Mode of Administration as was practised by the Apostles and Primitive Christians and that being a positive Institution with respect to the Subject and Manner of Administration is not to be deviated from upon any pretence whatsoever unless we will suppose the Laws of the Almighty to be in the Power of Man so as that he may dispense at pleasure with them which is not to be done without sufficient Authority from God himself which is no where to be found 4. If the Laws of the great unerring Sovereign of all things are to be observed without variation unless it be by his express Direction then we are to conform exactly to his Order in this part of the Evangelical Law and to practise it no otherwise than he has prescribed because it was once so delivered to the Saints 5. We would caution all that would approach to this sacred Evangelical Ordinance unless they be dead to Sin that is such as truly and really hate Wickedness and the empty Vanities of the World and unless they have a prospect of and long to have an Interest in that never-fading Inheritance promised by our dear Lord Jesus to his Children not to prophane this blessed Institution Because if they want the due Qualifications of serious and converted Souls viz. Faith Repentance and good Lives they are hereby entitled not real Members of Christ but Hypocrites and incur as great a Hazard as such do who eat and drink unworthily of the Lord's Supper The Lord's Supper 1 Cor. 11.23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you That the Lord Jesus the same Night in which he was betrayed took Bread Verse 24. And when he had given thanks he brake it and said Take eat this is my Body which is broken for you This do in remembrance of me THe Papists affirm That after the Words which they call the Words of Consecration spoken by the Mass-Priest the Bread is changed into the real Body of Jesus Christ and many of the blessed Martyrs in Queen Mary's Days were burned to Ashes for denying this Transubstantiation Which absurd and monstrous Conceit of theirs hath been learnedly confuted by many ancient and modern Writers so that it may be thought needless to add any thing here upon that account yet that we may make our way

Christ and the Things of Religion of which Justice and Charity Holiness and Compassion are not the least Part and yet under this Vizard and in the very time of these Pretensions perpetrate the greatest and most unparallel'd Villanies in the World 1. In being the Top of Pride 2. In committing palpable Idolatry 3. Fill themselves with Excess and Drunkenness 4. To curse swear and blaspheme the very Name they profess to be sacred 5. To cast down the Truth burn the Bible deface the holy Books and Laws of God 6. To assume not only a Power to dispense with Violations of the highest Nature but to pardon and forgive them at pleasure 7. To commit Adultery and account it a venial Crime 8. To break Covenants drive a Trade in Perjury forswear every thing they are justly charged with and is fully proved against them 9. To foment Wars and Broils in every Kingdom and Country where they have Power contrive the Ruine of Towns and Places Cities Countries and Kingdoms by Fire Sword and most cruel Devastations 10. To slaughter kill and barbarously murther both Men Women and Children even all that dare make a shew of Conscience and Religion so far as to abhor and dissent from these Villanies This is such a Scheme of Religion and Systeme of Divinity to come from an Apostle a Shepherd a Vicar and Successor of Christ from a Church Sheep Saints and the pretended Followers of the meek peaceable and innocent Jesus who taught altogether otherwise by his Doctrine and Example that it might well be wondred at and is the strangest Mystery that ever appeared of which we challenge the whole World to shew the like in the Turks and Saracens For Men to swear lie and forswear themselves and yet be true Men to contrive Rebellion Murther and Treason and yet be as innocent as the Child unborn to be elevated to the highest Pinacle of Pride even above Emperors and Kings above Jesus Christ and God his Father and yet be humble and lowly To commit gross Idolatry and yet be the Servants of the Living God To be filled with and make a Trade of Excess and Drunkenness and yet be the Paterns and Standards of Sobriety and Temperance To cast down the Truth to the Ground deface the Laws of God and burn the Scriptures and yet be the true Witnesses to it To forgive Sins and yet be the greatest of Sinners themselves To commit Fornication and Adultery and yet be spotless and pure in Heart To foment Wars and Broils in every Kingdom and Country where they have Power to contrive the Ruine of Towns and Places Cities Countries and Kingdoms by Fire Sword and cruel Devastations and yet be as harmless as Doves to all Mankind the only Sons of Peace and Quietness To slaughter kill and barbarously murther Men Women and Children that dare not be so wicked as themselves and yet to be full of Mercy tender Pity and Compassion an Apostle Shepherd Vicar and Successor of the meek and Lamb-like Saviour And for the dear Consort of this impious Head or Man of Sin to be not only confederate with him but a Principal in all these unparallel'd Villanies and most butcherly and rapacious Murthers and yet be the Holy Catholick Church of God the pure and spotless Spouse of Jesus Christ the true Sheep the harmless Lambs the best of Saints and close Followers of the Lord Jesus who always taught the contrary by his holy Doctrine and meek Example We say these Things not being found by secret Search but are written in Capital Letters upon her Forehead appear in open view to be read by every one that is not wilfully blind Let any one shew us a greater Mystery in the World than this and we will subscribe to it 4. It cannot be the Turks because they are not the Mother of Harlots and Abominations of the Earth which this Babylon is said to be Rev. 17.5 And upon her Forehead was a Name written MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH And here we demand in excuse to the Turks this one Thing From whence did proceed the Murthers Massacres and Martyrdoms of all the Religious Professors of Christianity that have died by violence in the Christian World for the space of twelve hundred Years last past And from what People did proceed those horrid Oaths Blasphemies and Execrations that the World hath wofully been acquainted with most horrid and strangely astonishing to repeat Came these unparallel'd Degrees of Impiety from the Turks from the Waldensians Lutherans Calvinists or any Non-conforming Protestants No no. Why whose Language then is it Whose Why 't is the Language of the Beast of the bottomless Pit and bloody Whore who bare these blasphemous Sons of her own Body daily nourishes them at her Breast and strengthens them in their sinful Courses by accounting them the Sons the precious Sons of Sion the true Sons of the Catholick Church the Darlings of Heaven the beloved Ones of the Virgin Mary and giving them Pardons for these bold and Heaven-daring Sins as often as they do commit them and come to ask Pardon for them so that Sin and Pardon is as constant and common with them as Breathing and Eating And these Things are done to seal and confirm Lies which is the more heavy heinous and prodigious For if Men may lie by allowance may kill and shed innocent Blood without Controul of Conscience and Church-Censures may swear and blaspheme and challenge God himself to damn them may burn Men for Religion consume Cities to Ashes conspire the Death of Kings the Ruine and Overthrow of Kingdoms whore and murther Infants and yet be accounted a Church the Members and Parts of it called Saints holy Children and Sons of the Most High God Then may we claim a Patent and take a License to change the Name of all Things and alter all the Idea's of the Minds of Men call and account Beelzebub a good God and all his black Tribe the pure Saints of the Most High call the lower Regions of Blackness and Darkness to which he is confin'd the Heaven of Glory and eternal Light Of which Things we ought in Justice to clear the Turks until Witnesses of undoubted Credit shall come forth and evidence that the Turkish State is the Mother of as great Abominations as these are 5. And lastly The Turks cannot be Mystery Babylon because they never were made drunk with the Blood of the Saints and with the Blood of the Martyrs of Jesus which this Woman Mystery Babylon is expresly said to be Rev. 17.6 And I saw the Woman drunk with the Blood of the Saints and with the Blood of the Martyrs of Jesus and I wondred with great admiration Now let any Man shew such Bloodshed Saints Bloodshed by Massacres and Martyrdom for the professing of Christianity which must be if the Text be answered in that Clause Blood of the Martyrs of Jesus by the Turks either within their Dominions or

or Believer wants the Father commands them to go to Jesus and to hear him in every thing that he shall say unto them This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased Mat. 3. hear ye him Moses a Type of Christ MOses was a Type of Christ in his Person 1. He was of mean Parents and Birth So was Christ in respect of his Flesh or human Nature of a poor decayed and dri●d Stock being born of a poor Virgin 2. Moses was no sooner born but he was exposed to the Wrath of Pharaoh King of Egypt who sought to put him to death So Christ in his Infancy was sought by King Herod to be slain but both by God's extraordinary Providence were delivered 3. Moses was of a meek and sweet disposition above all that dwelt upon the Earth yet full of Zeal and Indignation against Sin So Christ was a Pattern of Meekness and Humility Learn of me c. Mat. 11.28 29. II. Moses in his Office and Function was a Type of Christ 1. He was appointed by God and sent to deliver Israel out of Pharaoh's cruel Bondage So Jesus Christ was appointed and sent to deliver all the Israel of God from the cruel Bondage of Satan and heavy Oppression and Burthen of Sin 2. Moses was sent to lead Israel towar●s Canaan So Jesus Christ leads us to Heaven the Anti-type of Canaan But in this there is a Disparity Moses led Israel but unto the Sight of the promised Land but Jesus Christ leads us quite into Heaven or the Land of Promise 3. Moses was learned in all the Learning of Egypt Christ was learned to admiration his Enemies cried out From whence hath he all this Learning 4. Moses gave the Law having first received it from the hand of God So Jesus Christ hath given us the Law of the Gospel as he received it from his Father 5. Moses was Mediator of the First Covenant and as so considered was both King Priest and Prophet Jesus Christ is Mediator of the Second Covenant and as so also both King Priest and Prophet 6. Moses wrought many mighty Miracles in Egypt at the Red Sea and in the Wilderness to confirm the Law and to shew Israel that he was really sent of God So Jesus Christ wrought many strange and wonderful Miracles by Sea and Land in Towns and Deserts to manifest his Glory to shew he was s●nt of God and to confirm his Doctrine 7. Moses instituted the Passeover So Christ the true Moses instituted the Supper III. Moses in his Faithfulness was a Type of Christ he was faithful as a Servant he did all things exactly according to the Pattern shewed him in the Mount Heb. 3.5 So Christ in all things was faithful as a Son IV. Moses being to deliver the Law fasted forty Days and forty Nights in the Mountain alone Christ being to preach the Gospel fasted so long in the Wilderness V. He was a Type of Christ in many particular Actions of his Life 1. Moses married an Ethiopian a Stranger a Black So Christ espoused the Gentiles who were Strangers to God and by reason of Sin as black as Hell could make them 2. Moses sweetned the bitter Waters of Marah by a Tree cast into it So Christ sweetens all our Afflictions by the means of his Cross 3. Moses led Israel through the Red Sea Christ leads his Church through a Sea of Tribulation 4. As Moses was transfigured on Mount Sinai and seem'd so glorious that the Children of Israel could not behold his Face So Jesus Christ also was transfigured in Mount Tabor so as his Disciples were amazed and wist not what they said Joshua a Type of Christ Parallels JOshua or Jesus he was a Saviour as his Name signifies he saved Israel from temporal and external Enemies and Calamities So Christ saves us from all spiritual and internal Enemies and Miseries as well as he will from all external II. Joshua led Israel quite into Canaan not only unto the sight of it but into it So Christ leads us as we said before into Heaven What Moses could not do Joshua did do upon this account So what the Law could not do being weak through the Flesh Christ our Joshua hath done III. Joshua was a mighty Conqueror So is Christ Joshua overcame and utterly destroyed many Kings that so he might give Israel the peaceable Possession of the Land of Canaan So J●sus Christ overcame and totally vanquished divers mighty Kings and Enemies of our Souls that so he might give us a certain Assurance of the eternal Inheritance viz. 1. Satan the great King of the Bottomless-Pit 2. Sin who like a cruel and merciless King and Tyrant reigned over all the Children of Men. 3. Death the King of Terrors c. IV. All the good Promises God made to Israel were fulfilled by the hands of Joshua So all the gracious Promises of God to his Elect were fulfilled in and by Jesus Christ V. Joshua saved Rahab's House that had the red Cord hung out at the Window So Jesus Christ saves all poor penitent Sinners that express Faith in his Blood VI. He accep●ed also the Gibeonites who humbly entreated Peace of him So doth Christ all sincere Converts who wisely seek to him for Mercy Sampson a Type of Christ Parallels SAmpson's Nativity was foretold by an Angel of God So was the Conception and Nativity of Jesus Christ foretold by an Angel 2. Sampson was sanctified from the Womb So was Christ much more II. Sampson in respect of his great Strength as some conceive was a Type of Christ III. He conquered a stout Lion in the Desert hand to hand as it were So Christ overcame the roaring Lion the Devil in the Wilderness and made him flie IV. He slew many of God's Enemies by his Death So Jesus Christ by Death overcame Sin Satan Hell and the Grave David a Type of Christ Dr. Taylor AS all the Kings of Israel were express Types of Jesus Christ the Head of his Kingdom and of all the People of God c. So were there two of them that were more manifest Figures of him than all the rest I mean David and Solomon of both which we shall enquire wherein the Resemblance consisteth David was so special a Type of the Lord Jesus as scarce is any thing noted of Christ but some Shadow of it might be observed in David some of which we shall briefly touch upon in the following Parallels Parallels Isa 11.1 I. For his Person David the Son of Jesse Christ the true Rod out of the Stock of Jesse Both of obscure and low Parentage both out of dry and despicable Roots II David was a King of Israel and had his Kingdom raised out of Humility Christ is a King King of Saints and King of Nations and yet at first his Kingdom was small and rose by degrees much after the manner as David's did whose Kingdom was the Figure of it III. David was a Man after God's own Heart
