hand_n on_o all_o that_o be_v baptize_v without_o exception_n nay_o it_o follow_v roundly_o that_o where_o ever_o the_o apostle_n find_v any_o particular_a disciple_n or_o disciple_n that_o have_v not_o receive_v those_o visible_a or_o extraordinary_a gift_n they_o be_v to_o lay_v their_o hand_n on_o they_o to_o that_o end_n for_o i_o presume_v mr._n danvers_n judge_n have_v paul_n find_v 1200_o as_o he_o find_v 12_o at_z ephesus_z who_o have_v not_o receive_v nor_o hear_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o will_v have_v lay_v hand_n on_o they_o which_o presuppose_v also_o that_o those_o miraculous_a gift_n be_v promise_v and_o belong_v to_o every_o particular_a member_n in_o the_o church_n which_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o 1_o cor._n 12.4_o 7_o 8_o 9_o 29_o 30._o for_o tho_o as_o we_o have_v prove_v the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v promise_v to_o every_o sincere_a believer_n in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n yet_o be_v not_o the_o extraordinary_a gift_n promise_v to_o any_o in_o particular_a be_v only_o reserve_v in_o the_o bosom_n or_o breast_n of_o the_o almighty_a to_o who_o and_o after_o what_o manner_n he_o will_v distribute_v they_o 1_o cor._n 12.4_o there_o be_v diversity_n of_o gift_n but_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o one_o be_v give_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n the_o word_n of_o wisdom_n to_o another_o the_o word_n of_o knowledge_n to_o another_o faith_n to_o another_o the_o gift_n of_o healing_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n to_o another_o the_o work_n of_o miracle_n to_o another_o prophecy_n to_o another_o discern_v of_o tongue_n v_o 8_o 9_o 10._o be_v all_o prophet_n be_v all_o worker_n of_o miracle_n have_v all_o the_o gift_n of_o healing_n do_v all_o speak_v with_o tongue_n etc._n etc._n hence_o nothing_o can_v be_v clear_a than_o this_o that_o though_o all_o have_v right_a to_o the_o spirit_n yet_o but_o very_o few_o have_v the_o extraordinary_a gift_n thereof_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n the_o three_o thing_n mr._n danvers_n seem_v to_o affirm_v be_v that_o all_o in_o samaria_n that_o be_v baptize_v have_v not_o hand_n lay_v upon_o they_o because_o it_o be_v say_v of_o simon_n he_o have_v no_o part_n nor_o lot_n in_o that_o matter_n 1._o here_o he_o beg_v the_o question_n take_v for_o grant_v that_o simon_n have_v not_o hand_n lay_v upon_o he_o but_o why_o may_v not_o simon_n have_v lot_n and_o part_n in_o that_o matter_n if_o by_o lot_n and_o part_n be_v mean_v the_o visible_a or_o miraculous_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n since_o hypocrite_n may_v partake_v of_o they_o as_o our_o saviour_n plain_o signify_v and_o also_o do_v our_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 13.1_o 2_o 2._o he_o may_v come_v under_o the_o ordinance_n and_o yet_o his_o heart_n not_o be_v right_a with_o god_n he_o may_v not_o have_v any_o part_n or_o lot_n in_o the_o bless_a comforter_n the_o spirit_n of_o promise_n which_o the_o world_n receive_v not_o nor_o can_v a_o unsanctified_a heart_n partake_v of_o 3._o their_o reception_n of_o the_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v partly_o to_o convince_v the_o apostle_n and_o believer_n themselves_o that_o christ_n have_v make_v good_a his_o promise_n of_o send_v the_o comforter_n the_o holy_a spirit_n to_o they_o 4._o by_o lot_n or_o part_n in_o that_o matter_n may_v not_o be_v mean_v partake_v of_o the_o ritual_a or_o external_a part_n of_o the_o ordinance_n but_o rather_o refer_v to_o his_o desire_n of_o have_v power_n to_o be_v a_o administrator_n of_o it_o upon_o other_o so_o that_o the_o holy_a spirit_n may_v be_v give_v to_o those_o he_o lay_v his_o hand_n on_o but_o 5._o if_o we_o shall_v grant_v simon_n have_v not_o hand_n impose_v upon_o he_o which_o i_o rather_o incline_v to_o yet_o will_v it_o not_o hurt_v our_o cause_n in_o the_o least_o because_o he_o may_v be_v discover_v to_o be_v a_o profane_a wretch_n before_o it_o come_v to_o be_v his_o lot_n to_o partake_v thereof_o if_o therefore_o it_o appear_v and_o may_v be_v grant_v that_o all_o that_o be_v baptize_v in_o samaria_n come_v under_o this_o appointment_n save_o simon_n we_o have_v as_o much_o as_o we_o desire_v and_o sure_o this_o can_v rational_o be_v deny_v by_o any_o that_o read_v the_o word_n vers_fw-la 12._o when_o they_o believe_v they_o be_v baptize_v both_o man_n and_o woman_n compare_v this_o with_o vers_n 16._o that_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v fall_v on_o none_o of_o they_o etc._n only_o they_o be_v baptize_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n must_v not_o they_o and_o they_o mean_v all_o who_o be_v say_v to_o be_v baptize_v so_o likewise_o when_o it_o be_v say_v ver_n 13._o they_o lay_v their_o hand_n upon_o they_o do_v not_o they_o intend_v the_o very_a same_o they_o pray_v for_o and_o shall_v we_o think_v they_o do_v not_o pray_v for_o they_o all_o have_v not_o all_o the_o like_a need_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o be_v it_o not_o promise_v to_o all_o the_o son_n and_o handmaid_n or_o shall_v we_o think_v the_o apostle_n do_v not_o pray_v for_o the_o woman_n as_o well_o as_o the_o man_n the_o weak_a vessel_n as_o well_o as_o the_o strong_a in_o mat._n 28.19_o 20._o as_o it_o be_v well_o note_v by_o mr._n fisher_n it_o be_v say_v go_v teach_v all_o nation_n baptise_v they_o and_o in_o the_o word_n follow_v teach_v they_o to_o observe_v all_o thing_n i_o have_v command_v you_o by_o they_o must_v needs_o intend_v they_o all_o and_o every_o of_o they_o that_o be_v make_v disciple_n and_o baptize_v one_o word_n or_o two_o further_a concern_v what_o mr._n d._n object_n against_o we_o from_o act_n 19.6_o from_o the_o effect_n that_o follow_v this_o administration_n he_o still_o argue_v as_o if_o that_o be_v the_o absolute_a end_n thereof_o which_o as_o a_o great_a doctor_n well_o observe_v be_v too_o trifle_v a_o fancy_n to_o be_v put_v in_o balance_n against_o so_o sacred_a a_o institution_n but_o let_v we_o examine_v this_o scripture_n a_o little_a more_o have_v you_o receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n since_o you_o believe_v say_v our_o apostle_n they_o say_v unto_o he_o we_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o hear_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o holy_a spirit_n unto_o what_o then_o be_v you_o baptize_v etc._n etc._n two_o thing_n be_v here_o very_o remarkable_a 1._o that_o the_o holy_a spirit_n according_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o apostle_n inquire_v after_o their_o reception_n of_o it_o be_v the_o undoubted_a right_n of_o every_o baptize_v believer_n in_o christ_n jesus_n appear_v from_o these_o two_o expression_n have_v you_o receive_v the_o spirit_n since_o you_o believe_v no._n unto_o what_o then_o be_v you_o baptize_v it_o seem_v strange_a as_o if_o paul_n shall_v say_v that_o you_o have_v believe_v in_o christ_n and_o be_v baptize_v have_v not_o yet_o receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n since_o it_o be_v the_o great_a legacy_n our_o lord_n and_o master_n leave_v to_o every_o one_o of_o his_o disciple_n 2._o it_o be_v evident_a that_o whosoever_o be_v baptize_v after_o christ_n resurrection_n in_o his_o name_n be_v instruct_v into_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o consequent_o into_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n the_o outward_a ceremony_n or_o ministry_n of_o it_o belong_v to_o they_o as_o person_n so_o consider_v paul_n seem_v to_o question_v their_o baptism_n since_o they_o be_v whole_o ignorant_a of_o that_o glorious_a promise_n of_o blessing_n annex_v thereto_o which_o consider_v may_v full_o satisfy_v any_o unbiased_a person_n that_o the_o extraordinary_a or_o miraculous_a gift_n can_v not_o be_v the_o end_n of_o this_o administration_n and_o as_o touch_v those_o effect_n that_o follow_v it_o be_v clear_a the_o like_a effect_n follow_v all_o other_o ordinance_n as_o well_o as_o this_o object_n and_o whereas_o mr._n d._n presume_v to_o say_v they_o be_v some_o of_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n and_o again_o not_o the_o whole_a church_n answ_n 1._o can_v it_o be_v think_v that_o those_o be_v at_o that_o time_n member_n of_o the_o church_n and_o yet_o so_o ignorant_a of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o sure_o paul_n will_v not_o have_v baptize_v they_o again_o if_o they_o have_v be_v member_n of_o the_o church_n before_o 2._o they_o be_v not_o call_v the_o church_n nor_o of_o the_o church_n nor_o some_o of_o the_o church_n but_o certain_a disciple_n yea_o and_o such_o as_o appear_v be_v only_o instruct_v into_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n 3._o though_o we_o read_v but_o of_o 12_o that_o have_v hand_n lay_v on_o they_o which_o be_v the_o number_n of_o the_o man_n number_n that_o paul_n find_v at_o that_o time_n who_o lie_v short_a of_o their_o duty_n and_o privilege_n in_o that_o respect_n since_o we_o see_v the_o spirit_n be_v their_o right_n as_o baptize_v believer_n it_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o every_o believer_n to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o
