causeless_a doubt_n touch_v the_o assistant_n cooperation_n of_o the_o spirit_n n._n i_o second_o thus_o argue_v paul_n come_v not_o to_o 17._o 1._o cor._n 1._o 17._o baptise_v therefore_o baptism_n

we_o will_v not_o blame_v their_o fiery_a ceremony_n n._n our_o second_o reason_n be_v this_o the_o scope_n of_o christ_n speech_n be_v to_o entreat_v of_o regeneration_n which_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n alone_o and_o therefore_o 8._o john_n 3._o 8._o it_o be_v not_o probable_a that_o there_o he_o shall_v speak_v of_o outward_a baptism_n i._o your_o sequel_n be_v evident_o refute_v

all_o water_n be_v sanctify_v to_o the_o mystical_a wash_n away_o of_o sin_n in_o baptism_n think_v you_o that_o abana_n and_o pharphar_n be_v better_o than_o other_o river_n can_v you_o prohibit_v any_o kind_n of_o 12._o 2._o king_n 5._o 12._o water_n to_o be_v use_v in_o baptism_n n._n that_o be_v far_o from_o our_o meaning_n but_o we_o dislike_v that_o you_o ascribe_v the_o sanctification_n of_o water_n to_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n as_o to_o the_o cause_n i._o why_o be_v christ_n baptize_v n._n that_o all_o righteousness_n may_v be_v fulfil_v 15._o math._n 3._o 15._o i._o what_o
