accuse_v we_o as_o be_v against_o all_o external_a ordinance_n because_o the_o query_n insinuate_v that_o such_o who_o be_v come_v into_o death_n with_o christ_n need_v not_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o put_v they_o into_o remembrance_n of_o his_o death_n from_o whence_o he_o most_o unjust_o infer_v his_o consequence_n that_o we_o reject_v all_o outward_a help_n and_o mean_n whatsoever_o but_o do_v not_o i_o a._n know_v that_o his_o own_o brethren_n acknowledge_v there_o be_v no_o absolute_a necessity_n of_o use_v that_o call_v the_o supper_n so_o as_o none_o can_v be_v save_v but_o such_o as_o partake_v of_o it_o and_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o any_o outward_a help_n when_o people_n can_v have_v they_o but_o yet_o we_o say_v still_o whatever_o outward_a thing_n god_n have_v command_v we_o to_o use_v be_v it_o never_o so_o small_a or_o mean_a be_v in_o that_o respect_n both_o necessary_a and_o profitable_a unto_o we_o for_o there_o be_v none_o of_o god_n command_n but_o they_o bring_v along_o with_o they_o a_o real_a advantage_n to_o man_n soul_n but_o i._o a._n have_v not_o as_o yet_o prove_v it_o that_o use_v bread_n and_o wine_n as_o aforesaid_a be_v any_o gospel_n command_n another_o abuse_n of_o he_o be_v that_o he_o allege_v we_o reject_v the_o say_a practice_n of_o take_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n from_o a_o conceit_a perfection_n which_o be_v false_a for_o as_o we_o do_v not_o boast_v of_o our_o perfection_n so_o we_o do_v not_o reject_v that_o custom_n because_o of_o any_o perfection_n that_o some_o of_o we_o may_v become_v unto_o beyond_o other_o but_o because_o we_o can_v find_v it_o to_o be_v any_o gospel_n precept_n and_o therefore_o we_o can_v acknowledge_v it_o either_o to_o be_v necessary_a or_o profitable_a to_o the_o weak_a another_o thing_n he_o quarrel_v in_o the_o query_n be_v that_o it_o make_v to_o die_v with_o christ_n and_o to_o come_v to_o the_o death_n with_o he_o all_o one_o and_o here_o he_o insult_v not_o a_o little_a in_o his_o knowledge_n of_o philosophy_n above_o the_o quaker_n for_o a_o mere_a grammaticism_n of_o say_v to_o for_o into_o which_o perhaps_o be_v only_o a_o fault_n in_o the_o

and_o to_o come_v to_o christ_n be_v all_o one_o as_o to_o come_v into_o he_o and_o when_o christ_n say_v come_v unto_o i_o he_o do_v certain_o mean_a that_o they_o be_v to_o come_v into_o he_o hence_o we_o read_v of_o the_o saint_n be_v in_o christ._n and_o if_o this_o be_v i._o a._n his_o philosophy_n so_o to_o quarrel_v at_o word_n proper_a enough_o and_o according_a to_o scripture_n let_v the_o judicious_a and_o sober_a reader_n judge_n whether_o some_o of_o our_o friend_n that_o call_v his_o philosophy_n foolosophy_n have_v not_o ground_n so_o to_o do_v and_o whether_o he_o

have_v positive_o charge_v all_o the_o minister_n of_o scotland_n that_o they_o never_o intend_v their_o hearer_n shall_v come_v any_o near_a to_o christ_n death_n than_o a_o bare_a historical_a

to_o query_n because_o he_o understand_v that_o if_o it_o be_v the_o care_n of_o preacher_n to_o bring_v people_n into_o the_o death_n with_o christ_n so_o as_o to_o be_v crucify_a with_o he_o they_o will_v not_o plead_v so_o much_o for_o uphold_v a_o figure_n or_o shadow_n of_o christ_n death_n to_o put_v they_o in_o remembrance_n of_o it_o when_o to_o suffer_v and_o die_v with_o christ_n be_v

do_v not_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_n deny_v it_o as_o mere_o natural_a insufficient_a and_o be_v it_o not_o too_o apparent_a that_o the_o far_o great_a number_n of_o your_o church_n member_n know_v

scripture_n have_v he_o and_o his_o brethren_n to_o call_v that_o eat_n of_o bread_n and_o drink_n of_o wine_n once_o or_o twice_o in_o a_o year_n in_o the_o pub●●ck_a assembly_n the_o sacrament_n 2._o what_o scripture_n have_v they_o to_o instruct_v they_o how_o oft_o they_o shall_v use_v it_o as_o once_o twice_o or_o four_o time_n in_o every_o year_n and_o if_o they_o have_v none_o be_v it_o not_o then_o leave_v to_o people_n according_a to_o the_o query_n at_o least_o as_o to_o the_o time_n 3._o what_o scripture_n have_v they_o for_o consecrate_v it_o or_o when_o do_v christ_n say_v before_o you_o eat_v it_o consecrate_v it_o 4._o when_o do_v christ_n give_v only_o the_o power_n to_o a_o priest_n or_o presbyter_n or_o ordame_v minister_n to_o consecrate_v it_o so_o as_o without_o the_o say_a consecration_n by_o some_o priest_n or_o ordain_v minister_n it_o be_v no_o sacrament_n and_o see_v every_o christian_a may_v eat_v it_o as_o well_o as_o the_o minister_n why_o may_v he_o not_o also_o consecrate_v it_o as_o well_o as_o he_o see_v every_o true_a christian_a be_v a_o priest_n 5._o where_o do_v christ_n appoint_v that_o these_o word_n take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n shall_v be_v the_o word_n of_o consecration_n and_o have_v you_o not_o receive_v all_o this_o from_o the_o papist_n and_o not_o from_o christ_n 6._o see_v you_o common_o say_v that_o this_o

every_o true_a christian_a feed_v daily_o by_o faith_n upon_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o protestant_a doctrine_n and_o ought_v daily_o to_o remember_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n in_o all_o their_o eat_n and_o drink_v which_o be_v also_o sanctify_a unto_o they_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o prayer_n what_o peculiar_a virtue_n or_o efficacy_n have_v your_o sacramental_a eat_n more_o than_o ordinary_a eat_n

yet_o do_v and_o on_o the_o contrary_n we_o have_v good_a ground_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o spiritual_a only_o be_v mean_v because_o it_o be_v the_o spiritual_a baptism_n only_o which_o be_v call_v the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n in_o scripture_n and_o be_v express_o distinguish_v from_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n with_o water_n and_o certain_o the_o baptism_n which_o christ_n command_v be_v his_o own_o baptism_n whereof_o he_o give_v the_o apostle_n charge_v to_o administer_v it_o as_o servant_n and_o instrument_n under_o he_o who_o make_v they_o minister_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o power_n that_o be_v in_o he_o by_o who_o ministry_n other_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o same_o but_o if_o i._n a._n his_o argument_n hold_v good_a the_o spiritual_a baptism_n be_v altogether_o exclude_v and_o the_o apostle_n receive_v no_o authority_n to_o administer_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o only_o of_o water_n and_o consequent_o they_o be_v no_o minister_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o how_o can_v they_o minister_v of_o the_o spirit_n or_o the_o spiritual_a baptism_n unless_o they_o receive_v authority_n so_o to_o do_v and_o where_o receive_v they_o this_o authority_n or_o command_n if_o not_o when_o christ_n say_v these_o word_n unto_o they_o again_o if_o christ_n have_v send_v the_o apostle_n to_o baptise_v with_o water_n then_o certain_o he_o have_v send_v paul_n a_o chief_a apostle_n but_o paul_n say_v christ_n send_v he_o not_o to_o baptise_v to_o wit_n with_o water_n but_o whereas_o i._o a._n do_v allege_v that_o paul_n mean_v that_o christ_n send_v he_o not_o principal_o to_o baptise_v i_o ask_v he_o why_o do_v he_o transgress_v his_o own_o rule_n to_o go_v from_o the_o proper_a to_o the_o improper_a and_o unusual_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n not_o which_o be_v absolute_o negative_a and_o not_o comparative_a and_o that_o without_o any_o urge●t_a necessity_n but_o that_o of_o his_o own_o mere_a devise_v and_o that_o he_o say_v doubtless_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o baptise_v without_o a_o commission_n i_o answer_v this_o be_v bare_o assert_v without_o proof_n why_o may_v not_o paul_n and_o other_o baptise_v without_o a_o commission_n to_o wit_n by_o a_o permission_n as_o well_o as_o he_o do_v circumcise_v and_o do_v other_o thing_n of_o the_o law_n and_o that_o without_o any_o impu●●tion_n of_o will-worship_n have_v thus_o answer_v i._n a._n his_o argument_n i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o answer_v his_o objection_n or_o pretend_a refutation_n of_o our_o argument_n and_o that_o especial_o because_o some_o ●_o of_o they_o which_o he_o bring_v as_o our_o argument_n be_v not_o real_o we_o and_o none_o of_o they_o he_o bring_v do_v he_o fair_o propose_v and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v refer_v the_o reader_n to_o our_o other_o treatise_n wherein_o our_o argument_n be_v more_o due_o and_o fair_o propose_v without_o repeat_v they_o here_o because_o of_o brevity_n only_o whereas_o he_o allege_v we_o argue_v that_o water-baptism_n be_v not_o mean_v matth._n 28._o 19_o 20._o because_o not_o express_v i_o say_v that_o baptism_n with_o water_n be_v not_o express_v nor_o by_o any_o true_a and_o just_a

intelligent_a and_o impartial_a reader_n may_v see_v that_o i._o a._n have_v not_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v so_o mean_v by_o all_o his_o endeavour_n and_o therefore_o not_o of_o his_o own_o mouth_n henceforth_o he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v believe_v as_o concern_v i._n a._n his_o four_o section_n which_o be_v altogether_o concern_v infant-baptism_n i_o may_v wave_v it_o because_o it_o proceed_v upon_o a_o bare_a supposition_n that_o be_v not_o prove_v viz._n that_o water-baptism_n be_v a_o gospel_n precept_n and_o see_v the_o controversy_n be_v most_o proper_a betwixt_o he_o and_o these_o call_v anabaptist_n wherein_o we_o be_v little_o concern_v i_o shall_v not_o insist_v to_o answer_v every_o thing_n only_o i_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o some_o of_o his_o most_o gross_a and_o impertinent_a assertion_n and_o proof_n he_o allege_v baptism_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v succeed_v in_o the_o room_n of_o circumcision_n to_o this_o i_o may_v reply_v in_o his_o own_o language_n elsewhere_o he_o put_v the_o plough_n ●before_n the_o ox_n because_o he_o suppose_v still_o a_o thing_n without_o proof_n that_o water-baptism_n be_v any_o new_a testament_n precept_n again_o he_o allege_v that_o boptism_n with_o water_n be_v come_v ●n_o the_o room_n of_o circumcision_n because_o paul_n say_v col._n 2._o 11_o 12._o our_o burial_n with_o christ_n in_o baptism_n be_v our_o circumcision_n but_o he_o have_v not_o prove_v that_o the_o baptism_n there_o mention_v be_v water-baptism_n where_o be_v his_o consequence_n for_o this_o and_o why_o do_v he_o expound_v the_o circumcision_n to_o be_v spiritual_a in_o that_o place_n and_o the_o baptism_n outward_a and_o visible_a be_v it_o not_o more_o proper_a to_o take_v they_o both_o spiritual_o and_o then_o his_o argument_n do_v whole_o vanish_v and_o i_o find_v ask_v he_o be_v all_o bury_v with_o christ_n who_o be_v baptise_v with_o water_n if_o he_o say_v not_o as_o he_o ought_v then_o sure_o the_o water-baptism_n be_v not_o the_o baptism_n there_o understand_v another_o argument_n of_o he_o be_v that_o because_o the_o infant_n of_o believer_n be_v probable_o partaker_n of_o regeneration_n which_o be_v the_o thing_n seal_v or_o signify_v that_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v with_o water_n but_o this_o argument_n prove_v as_o much_o that_o infant_n shall_v also_o have_v that_o call_v the_o supper_n because_o christ_n who_o be_v signify_v thereby_o do_v as_o probable_o belong_v to_o infant_n as_o regeneration_n see_v none_o can_v have_v regeneration_n without_o christ_n and_o i_o will_v know_v what_o i._n a._n do_v say_v to_o this_o or_o let_v he_o show_v a_o reason_n why_o his_o argument_n prove_v the_o one_o rather_o than_o the_o other_o and_o it_o seem_v that_o for_o that_o or_o the_o like_a reason_n augustine_n and_o other_o of_o those_o call_v the_o father_n be_v for_o give_v that_o call_v the_o supper_n to_o infant_n as_o well_o as_o water-baptism_n and_o in_o that_o respect_n be_v long_o ago_o real_o administer_v to_o they_o but_o see_v i._n a._n have_v spend_v so_o much_o paper_n on_o water-baptism_n why_o say_v he_o nothing_o to_o sprinkle_v of_o infant_n why_o do_v he_o not_o so_o much_o as_o attempt_v to_o prove_v that_o sprinkle_n with_o water_n be_v or_o ever_o be_v the_o true_a form_n of_o baptism_n with_o water_n although_o the_o question_n do_v express_o mention_v it_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o all_o along_o hitherto_o i._n a._n have_v leave_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o query_n unanswered_a chap._n ix_o

that_o beyond_o or_o what_o be_v more_o than_o a_o figure_n or_o figurative_a commemoration_n thereof_o to_o wit_n real_o and_o substantial_o yet_o so_o as_o spiritual_o and_o by_o faith_n and_o not_o

eat_v with_o holy_a fear_n and_o reverence_n and_o thankfulness_n 3._o and_o we_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o the_o night_n wherein_o he_o be_v betray_v he_o take_v bread_n and_o break_v it_o after_o supper_n and_o have_v give_v thanks_o he_o give_v it_o unto_o his_o apostle_n say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o likewise_o the_o cup_n say_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o it_o for_o as_o oft_o as_o you_o eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n you_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n until_o he_o come_v so_o we_o grant_v he_o give_v they_o a_o commandment_n to_o do_v the_o
