a_o relation_n of_o divine_a make_n and_o confirm_v and_o therefore_o not_o bare_o a_o relation_n of_o reason_n which_o in_o its_o use_n of_o speak_v be_v refer_v to_o the_o constitution_n of_o man_n

if_o any_o man_n shall_v inquire_v in_o what_o subject_a this_o relation_n be_v place_v i_o must_v oppose_v all_o in_o that_o as_o well_o as_o the_o former_a some_o put_v it_o in_o the_o soul_n

be_v unite_v not_o with_o the_o soul_n in_o heaven_n or_o hell_n as_o be_v imagine_v in_o general_a by_o the_o school_n for_o which_o i_o see_v no_o argument_n of_o strength_n object_v that_o which_o

that_o i_o define_v this_o relict_n of_o baptism_n by_o the_o genus_fw-la of_o a_o power_n but_o in_o all_o my_o discourse_n i_o have_v make_v it_o a_o relation_n for_o answer_v to_o this_o i_o say_v i_o define_v it_o by_o that_o which_o deliver_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o most_o clear_o to_o our_o capacity_n the_o essence_n of_o power_n be_v more_o easy_o discern_v than_o that_o of_o relation_n but_o far_o conceive_v that_o these_o moral_a relation_n either_o be_v power_n or_o the_o immediate_a foundation_n of_o they_o as_o we_o may_v discern_v in_o those_o which_o be_v instance_a in_o before_o as_o a_o king_n a_o judge_n a_o mayor_n and_o the_o like_a these_o either_o be_v those_o power_n or_o have_v those_o power_n most_o natural_o flow_v out_o of_o they_o about_o which_o if_o any_o will_v contend_v i_o be_o weary_a of_o dispute_n let_v he_o correct_v the_o definition_n and_o say_v it_o be_v a_o relation_n by_o which_o a_o man_n have_v a_o spiritual_a power_n and_o it_o will_v come_v all_o to_o the_o same_o effect_n i_o have_v do_v
signification_n and_o mystery_n of_o baptism_n which_o it_o impart_v to_o every_o baptize_v man_n be_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v before_o his_o death_n for_o as_o st._n paul_n speak●_n rom._n 6._o 3._o know_v you_o not_o that_o as_o many_o of_o we_o as_o be_v baptize_v into_o jesus_n christ_n be_v baptize_v into_o his_o death_n baptize_v into_o i●sus_n christ_n that_o be_v by_o baptism_n incorporate_v into_o his_o mystical_a body_n or_o as_o he_o speak_v plant_v verse_n 5._o be_v baptize_v into_o his_o death_n by_o the_o same_o phrase_n incorporate_v into_o his_o death_n dead_a with_o he_o and_o this_o enforce_v the_o four_o verse_n therefore_o we_o be_v bury_v with_o he_o by_o baptism_n into_o death_n if_o we_o be_v incorporate_v into_o he_o by_o baptism_n if_o incorporate_a into_o his_o death_n by_o baptism_n than_o we_o must_v be_v bury_v with_o he_o and_o then_o we_o must_v be_v raise_v with_o he_o now_o this_o mystery_n can_v not_o effect_v until_o our_o saviour_n death_n and_o resurrection_n for_o although_o i_o doubt_v not_o that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v powerful_a to_o the_o save_n of_o believer_n which_o believe_v in_o his_o death_n to_o come_v before_o it_o come_v yet_o it_o be_v a_o diverse_a way_n of_o faith_n which_o look_v upon_o christ_n to_o come_v and_o christ_n already_o come_v and_o again_o as_o the_o faith_n be_v diverse_a so_o the_o mean_n to_o get_v this_o faith_n and_o the_o covenant_n by_o which_o christ_n be_v impar●ed_v be_v diverse_a now_o this_o baptism_n look_v upon_o christ_n dead_a it_o can_v not_o therefore_o in_o this_o notion_n be_v apply_v to_o they_o before_o his_o death_n and_o after_o his_o death_n too_o and_o to_o confirm_v this_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o the_o very_a apostle_n themselves_o be_v slow_a in_o the_o belief_n of_o this_o fundamental_a truth_n the_o death_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n until_o after_o it_o be_v do_v as_o you_o may_v observe_v luke_n 24._o 25._o where_o our_o

believe_v that_o they_o preach_v they_o to_o other_o and_o then_o not_o baptize_v other_o into_o it_o these_o reason_n be_v not_o observe_v by_o bellarmine_n or_o gamacheus_n or_o estius_n or_o any_o other_o i_o meet_v with_o who_o handle_v this_o gamacheus_n in_o general_a affirm_v something_o to_o this_o last_o argument_n that_o christ_n death_n be_v powerful_a to_o the_o salvation_n of_o soul_n even_o before_o it_o be_v which_o i_o grant_v but_o not_o by_o that_o mean_n which_o take_v his_o death_n for_o a_o pattern_n or_o a_o stock_n in_o which_o it_o must_v be_v graft_v for_o the_o graft_n suppose_v the_o stock_n and_o the_o thing_n draw_v the_o pattern_n to_o such_o mean_n as_o be_v type_n or_o figure_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v not_o impression_n or_o sign_n of_o christ_n already_o come_v again_o he_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v enough_o without_o his_o death_n if_o he_o institute_v such_o a_o power_n but_o it_o must_v be_v prove_v then_o that_o he_o do_v institute_v such_o a_o power_n for_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o whatsoever_o covenant_n god_n make_v that_o he_o will_v perform_v and_o since_o god_n have_v please_v to_o make_v such_o expression_n of_o this_o baptism_n as_o have_v their_o foundation_n upon_o his_o death_n it_o be_v not_o probable_a nor_o can_v we_o be_v easy_o induce_v to_o think_v that_o he_o shall_v do_v it_o without_o his_o death_n another_o answer_n he_o have_v which_o bear_v some_o show_n of_o prosecution_n of_o the_o first_o argument_n that_o although_o baptism_n be_v not_o complete_a omni_fw-la ex_fw-la parte_fw-la in_o all_o circumstance_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o remote_a effect_n which_o be_v to_o open_v the_o gate_n of_o heaven_n until_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n yet_o it_o be_v essential_o perfect_a to_o the_o production_n of_o original_a grace_n which_o be_v its_o near_a and_o formal_a effect_n i_o reply_v neither_o can_v it_o do_v this_o for_o since_o circumcision_n be_v yet_o on_o foot_n which_o have_v that_o effect_v proper_a to_o it_o these_o two_o have_v not_o both_o the_o same_o operation_n at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o again_o since_o the_o introduction_n of_o original_a or_o any_o grace_n must_v be_v by_o the_o death_n and_o merit_n of_o christ_n man_n must_v receive_v this_o blessing_n by_o that_o and_o that_o communicate_v by_o baptism_n for_o although_o these_o mercy_n be_v give_v by_o other_o covenant_n before_o his_o death_n which_o relate_v to_o his_o death_n to_o come_v yet_o not_o by_o those_o which_o refer_v to_o his_o death_n pass_v as_o this_o complant_n

perceive_v to_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o text_n because_o throughout_o this_o chapter_n the_o apostle_n describe_v two_o sort_n of_o action_n good_a and_o evil_n two_o principle_n from_o whence_o they_o come_v the_o good_a from_o god_n who_o son_n we_o be_v call_v that_o do_v good_a and_o be_v assimilate_v to_o he_o by_o such_o action_n the_o evil_a from_o the_o devil_n verse_n 8._o now_o these_o two_o principle_n be_v in_o every_o man_n when_o he_o do_v well_o his_o action_n come_v from_o god_n and_o so_o far_o forth_o he_o be_v from_o god_n and_o when_o he_o do_v evil_a his_o
