A81727 Gospel-Glory proclaimed before the sonnes of men, in the visible and invisible worship of God. Wherein the mystery of God in Christ, and his royall, spirituall government over the soules and bodies of his saints, is clearly discovered, plainly asserted, and faithfully vindicated, against the deceiver and his servants, who endeavour the cessation thereof, upon what pretence soever. / By Edward Drapes, an unworthy servant in the gospell of Christ.

evident_a for_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o ordinance_n be_v a_o clear_a manifestation_n of_o put_v on_o christ_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n know_v you_o not_o that_o as_o many_o of_o you_o as_o have_v be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n have_v put_v on_o christ_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o true_a church_n be_v of_o a_o spiritual_a nature_n visible_o hold_v forth_o that_o government_n christ_n our_o head_n have_v in_o we_o again_o baptism_n be_v the_o first_o act_n visible_o represent_v our_o union_n with_o christ_n which_o give_v we_o a_o visible_a right_n to_o all_o other_o ordinance_n

let_v they_o produce_v their_o ground_n from_o the_o scripture_n and_o i_o shall_v more_o thorough_o consider_v the_o matter_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n let_v this_o suffice_v we_o that_o while_o man_n walk_v in_o other_o way_n doubtful_o without_o a_o rule_n for_o their_o practice_n we_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o scripture_n in_o be_v baptize_v and_o add_v to_o the_o church_n &_o whereas_o they_o say_v many_o church_n be_v plant_v without_o baptism_n it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n to_o say_v so_o but_o hard_o for_o to_o prove_v i_o be_o very_o confident_a all_o church_n be_v baptize_v else_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n have_v very_o ill_o observe_v their_o command_n go_v teach_v and_o baptize_v five_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o saint_n be_v baptize_v but_o likewise_o

we_o find_v it_o record_v that_o the_o saint_n be_v a_o body_n compact_v together_o and_o that_o when_o many_o see_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o ananias_n and_o saphira_n they_o dare_v not_o join_v themselves_o to_o they_o now_o this_o join_n after_o baptism_n be_v nothing_o but_o the_o mutual_a consent_n of_o each_o other_o give_v up_o themselves_o to_o the_o lord_n and_o one_o to_o another_o to_o watch_v over_o one_o another_o and_o walk_v before_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o own_o way_n which_o of_o necessity_n must_v be_v do_v or_o else_o the_o saint_n will_v be_v disable_v from_o
