here_o to_o evince_v that_o it_o be_v the_o express_a command_n will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o baptism_n must_v be_v by_o the_o total_a immersion_n of_o the_o subject_n of_o baptism_n by_o bury_v and_o dip_v he_o in_o the_o water_n and_o that_o every_o other_o manner_n of_o baptise_v be_v a_o nullity_n and_o mere_a babism_n and_o vanity_n these_o text_n speak_v of_o the_o bless_a fruit_n benefit_n and_o consequence_n of_o baptism_n not_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o baptise_v all_o that_o they_o say_v be_v this_o that_o in_o or_o by_o baptism_n be_v the_o manner_n what_o it_o will_v we_o be_v bury_v with_o christ_n that_o be_v we_o have_v a_o bless_a fellowship_n with_o christ_n jesus_n in_o his_o death_n burial_n and_o resurrection_n god_n make_v a_o bless_a co●●enant_n with_o we_o in_o baptism_n and_o we_o with_o he_o that_o through_o the_o death_n burial_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v become_v we_o and_o we_o be_v become_v he_o that_o as_o he_o die_v be_v bury_v and_o rise_v again_o for_o we_o so_o we_o will_v live_v and_o die_v with_o he_o unto_o the_o world_n flesh_n and_o devil_n and_o henceforth_o live_v as_o those_o that_o be_v rise_v again_o with_o christ_n these_o text_n do_v not_o prove_v first_o that_o dip_v or_o plunge_v in_o the_o water_n of_o baptism_n be_v the_o express_a will_n of_o god_n concern_v person_n when_o they_o be_v baptize_v respect_v the_o manner_n thereof_o nor_o second_o that_o the_o person_n baptize_v in_o those_o day_n be_v so_o baptize_v but_o it_o prove_v as_o we_o have_v say_v that_o whatsoever_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o baptism_n be_v that_o believer_n by_o their_o baptism_n be_v bury_v with_o christ_n which_o be_v not_o at_o all_o deny_v the_o very_a design_n of_o the_o apostle_n here_o not_o be_v to_o set_v forth_o the_o manner_n of_o baptism_n but_o the_o benefit_n and_o fruit_n thereof_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n 6.5_o rom._n 6.5_o if_o we_o have_v be_v plant_v together_o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o death_n we_o shall_v etc._n etc._n this_o do_v not_o show_v the_o manner_n of_o christ_n death_n as_o whether_o he_o be_v kill_v with_o a_o sword_n strangle_v or_o crucify_v etc._n etc._n but_o some_o other_o thing_n if_o you_o will_v know_v the_o manner_n of_o christ_n death_n you_o must_v look_v elsewhere_o for_o it_o so_o again_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o 3._o to_o the_o philippian_n and_o the_o 3._o ver_fw-la we_o be_v the_o circume_n sion_fw-la etc._n etc._n this_o do_v not_o prove_v the_o manner_n of_o circumcision_n but_o another_o thing_n circumcision_n may_v be_v the_o cut_n off_o of_o something_o from_o the_o forehead_n or_o finger_n or_o any_o other_o part_n for_o all_o that_o can_v be_v gather_v from_o that_o text_n you_o must_v search_v elsewhere_o for_o that_o even_o so_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o be_v bury_v with_o christ_n in_o or_o by_o baptism_n if_o you_o will_v look_v for_o the_o express_a will_n and_o command_v of_o god_n concern_v the_o manner_n of_o baptism_n you_o must_v find_v it_o elsewhere_o and_o not_o in_o this_o place_n and_o further_o place_n though_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o the_o practice_n of_o baptismin_n the_o primitive_a time_n be_v by_o dip_v yet_o will_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o dip_v be_v bind_v upon_o all_o person_n in_o all_o place_n though_o it_o shall_v be_v grant_v as_o possible_o it_o may_v be_v true_a that_o person_n baptize_v at_o that_o time_n and_o in_o those_o part_n of_o the_o world_n where_o it_o be_v likely_a it_o may_v be_v do_v without_o danger_n to_o their_o health_n etc._n etc._n be_v baptize_v by_o dowse_v dip_v or_o plunge_v into_o the_o water_n and_o that_o the_o apostle_n may_v take_v advantage_n from_o the_o manner_n thereof_o namely_o the_o more_o significant_o and_o emphatical_o to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o their_o be_v dead_a and_o bury_v with_o christ_n that_o be_v of_o their_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n and_o of_o burial_n as_o they_o be_v when_o under_o the_o water_n etc._n etc._n it_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v no_o other_o way_n for_o though_o they_o be_v baptize_v after_o that_o manner_n yet_o they_o may_v have_v be_v baptize_v after_o another_o manner_n without_o offence_n unto_o god_n if_o so_o be_v they_o be_v not_o tie_v up_o and_o restrain_v by_o god_n unto_o that_o manner_n and_o from_o all_o other_o show_v we_o where_o be_v such_o restraint_n in_o the_o scripture_n if_o from_o those_o text_n you_o will_v prove_v the_o necessity_n of_o the_o manner_n of_o baptism_n to_o be_v by_o immersion_n because_o the_o text_n say_v we_o be_v bury_v with_o he_o in_o baptism_n that_o be_v as_o christ_n be_v bury_v in_o or_o under_o the_o earth_n so_o we_o be_v bury_v in_o and_o under_o the_o water_n infer_v as_o well_o the_o manner_n of_o christ_n burial_n as_o the_o manner_n of_o our_o baptism_n why_o may_v you_o not_o infer_v thence_o also_o the_o manner_n of_o christ_n death_n as_o well_o as_o of_o his_o burial_n and_o with_o what_o kind_n of_o art_n can_v you_o make_v the_o analogy_n to_o hold_v there_o the_o next_o word_n speak_v of_o our_o be_v plant_v together_o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o death_n etc._n etc._n be_v there_o any_o thing_n in_o dip_v set_v forth_o the_o manner_n of_o christ_n death_n well_o though_o it_o be_v grant_v that_o some_o be_v nay_o that_o all_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o scripture_n be_v dip_v in_o baptism_n yet_o will_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o if_o they_o have_v be_v baptize_v any_o other_o way_n they_o have_v offend_v their_o liege_n lord_n except_o he_o have_v deny_v they_o their_o liberty_n in_o this_o case_n and_o command_v they_o to_o be_v baptize_v in_o that_o manner_n only_o and_o no_o other_o way_n if_o we_o serious_o consider_v the_o text_n by_o you_o urge_v to_o prove_v the_o necessity_n of_o dip_v viz._n rom._n 6.4_o coll._n
