will_v do_v if_o i_o be_v write_v to_o any_o other_o but_o i_o think_v i_o have_v say_v enough_o even_o to_o they_o to_o show_v that_o the_o mean_v of_o the_o apostle_n in_o this_o text_n be_v only_o to_o prefer_v the_o office_n of_o preach_v before_o that_o of_o baptise_v but_o i_o must_v withal_o desire_v they_o to_o take_v notice_n that_o the_o preach_a that_o be_v publish_v of_o the_o gospel_n at_o first_o to_o heathen_n be_v a_o very_a different_a thing_n and_o of_o much_o great_a necessity_n than_o those_o set_a discourse_n which_o we_o now_o call_v preach_v in_o christian_a auditory_n xiii_o let_v i_o to_o conclude_v add_v one_o argument_n more_o from_o this_o text_n 1_o cor._n i_o 17._o why_o that_o baptism_n mention_v matth._n xxviii_o 19_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o the_o baptism_n

though_o at_o the_o same_o time_n he_o command_v the_o performance_n of_o they_o under_o the_o penalty_n of_o death_n thus_o it_o be_v in_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o inward_a and_o

ark_n be_v put_v only_o as_o a_o type_n of_o baptism_n therefore_o baptism_n be_v the_o more_o worthy_a and_o more_o necessary_a and_o to_o neglect_v baptism_n be_v to_o venture_v swim_v in_o the_o
