A82010 A persuasive to full communion, with the churches of Christ in all Gospel-ordinances and priviledges Containing an essay for the conviction and reformation of such adult, or grown persons who live in the sinful neglect of baptism and the supper of the Lord. Together with an account of the manner of the transition of church-members from their infant to their adult-state, and regular admission to full communion. Written, for the help of such as need instruction in these spiritual concerns, 1 Cor. 12. 13. For by one spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be jews or gentiles, whether we be bond or free, and have been all made to drink into one spirit. By the late reverend Mr. George Day, minister of the gospel in London-street in Ratcliff / 1697. Day, George, d. 1697. 1698 (1698) Wing D461; ESTC R232085 42,081 116

be_v make_v a_o example_n for_o this_o omission_n as_o exod._n 4.24_o here_o its_o worthy_a our_o serious_a observation_n lest_o any_o shall_v think_v the_o punishment_n threaten_v to_o be_v great_a

when_o grow_v up_o by_o live_v in_o the_o neglect_n of_o this_o ordinance_n six_o consider_v that_o such_o as_o slight_a and_o neglect_v the_o outward_a baptism_n of_o water_n may_v just_o fear_v

where_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n come_v with_o power_n he_o convince_v of_o sin_n john_n 16.8_o and_o the_o neglect_n of_o any_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n be_v one_o sin_n of_o which_o the_o spirit_n

you_o know_v nothing_o of_o its_o convert_v renew_v and_o sanctifying-work_n and_o if_o so_o shall_v you_o die_v in_o this_o condition_n you_o have_v no_o ground_n that_o i_o know_v to_o hope_v for_o the_o witness_v and_o comforting-work_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o death_n nor_o for_o eternal_a life_n after_o it_o for_o none_o but_o holy_a soul_n have_v a_o promise_n of_o these_o blessing_n it_o be_v true_a god_n can_v sanctify_v the_o soul_n by_o his_o spirit_n though_o the_o body_n be_v not_o wash_v with_o water_n therefore_o i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o none_o be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v not_o baptise_a with_o water_n for_o doubtless_o there_o be_v many_o instance_n of_o the_o contrary_a as_o elect_a infant_n that_o dye_v before_o baptism_n and_o other_o but_o this_o i_o do_v affirm_v that_o see_v god_n have_v be_v please_v to_o set_v up_o ordinance_n in_o his_o church_n to_o be_v the_o mean_n of_o grace_n make_v it_o our_o duty_n to_o use_v they_o and_o do_v usual_o work_n grace_n in_o and_o by_o they_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n to_o neglect_v these_o ordinance_n where_o they_o may_v be_v have_v and_o such_o as_o do_v so_o have_v cause_n enough_o to_o fear_v they_o never_o yet_o receive_v any_o save_a benefit_n by_o they_o for_o that_o will_v make_v they_o to_o prize_v ordinance_n high_o and_o continue_v in_o the_o diligent_a use_n of_o they_o now_o consider_v can_v you_o be_v content_a to_o live_v without_o sanctify_a grace_n and_o dye_v without_o comfort_n and_o wellgrounded_n hope_v of_o heaven_n at_o last_o seven_o consider_v that_o the_o sinful_a neglect_n of_o one_o ordinance_n provoke_v god_n to_o withhold_v his_o blessing_n from_o other_o ordinance_n as_o a_o just_a and_o suitable_a punishment_n of_o that_o sin_n and_o i_o
