foundation_n again_o after_o the_o substance_n be_v come_v much_o less_o to_o be_v build_v upon_o 2_o but_o now_o to_o the_o second_o thing_n and_o that_o be_v faith_n towards_o god_n and_o this_o

faith_n and_o yet_o live_v in_o it_o by_o it_o etc._n etc._n but_o that_o faith_n that_o be_v to_o be_v leave_v be_v this_o that_o the_o people_n shall_v no_o long_o wait_v for_o the_o fulfil_n those_o promise_n of_o god_n concern_v the_o send_v christ_n to_o fulfil_v the_o work_n of_o salvation_n for_o his_o people_n which_o promise_n be_v frequent_a in_o scripture_n and_o the_o apostle_n

therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n show_v himself_o alive_a after_o his_o resurrection_n by_o many_o infallible_a proof_n act._n 1._o and_o here_o the_o apostle_n take_v they_o off_o from_o such_o waiting_n and_o expectation_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v we_o have_v also_o a_o clear_a proof_n of_o this_o faith_n luke_n 24._o 21._o but_o we_o trust_v it_o have_v be_v he_o that_o shall_v

upon_o this_o work_n perfect_o do_v and_o finish_v 3_o the_o doctrine_n of_o several_a baptism_n be_v to_o be_v lay_v aside_o or_o leave_v as_o there_o be_v several_a baptism_n and_o wash_n use_v in_o those_o time_n and_o they_o be_v now_o only_o to_o look_v after_o the_o true_a and_o spiritual_a wash_n and_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o he_o declare_v to_o they_o chap._n 10._o 12_o have_v

foundation_n nor_o foot_n for_o any_o such_o baptism_n to_o be_v lay_v again_o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v leave_v all_o 4_o the_o next_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o be_v leave_v be_v lay_v on_o of_o hand_n for_o when_o the_o gift_n that_o follow_v it_o be_v cease_v and_o at_o a_o end_n to_o what_o purpose_n shall_v it_o be_v use_v therefore_o they_o be_v much_o out_o now_o adays_o that_o think_v to_o ordain_v man_n by_o lay_v their_o hand_n upon_o they_o see_v they_o leave_v they_o as_o they_o be_v before_o for_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v not_o follow_v now_o therefore_o it_o be_v but_o like_o a_o dead_a form_n where_o there_o be_v no_o life_n nor_o power_n as_o in_o other_o form_n 5_o we_o come_v now_o to_o the_o five_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o be_v leave_v which_o be_v of_o

the_o expectation_n of_o this_o resurrection_n and_o the_o doctrine_n thereof_o shall_v not_o be_v leave_v behind_o for_o we_o can_v leave_v the_o high_a perfection_n behind_o and_o so_o wait_v for_o a_o high_a the_o word_n write_v be_v clear_a for_o this_o that_o this_o resurrection_n be_v to_o be_v earnest_o expect_v and_o wait_v for_o of_o all_o that_o have_v good_a hope_n hereof_o through_o

32._o with_o many_o more_o now_o the_o apostle_n bid_v we_o here_o leave_v these_o doctrine_n and_o go_v on_o to_o perfection_n but_o we_o be_v always_o to_o wait_v for_o the_o perfection_n we_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o resurrection_n for_o we_o can_v be_v past_o the_o resurrection_n and_o perfection_n before_o we_o come_v to_o it_o therefore_o this_o be_v not_o the_o resurrection_n we_o be_v to_o leave_v wait_v for_o and_o go_v on_o unto_o perfection_n because_o perfection_n be_v here_o and_o we_o be_v not_o come_v to_o it_o nor_o have_v not_o yet_o attain_v unto_o it_o therefore_o not_o go_v past_o it_o nor_o have_v we_o yet_o be_v in_o it_o nor_o take_v it_o up_o nor_o leave_v it_o behind_o we_o but_o now_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o resurrection_n the_o apostle_n do_v here_o exhort_v the_o hebrew_n to_o leave_v the_o expectation_n of_o and_o the_o wait_a for_o the_o fulfil_n it_o be_v the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a this_o be_v the_o resurrection_n that_o be_v then_o past_a and_o therefore_o the_o people_n have_v no_o ground_n to_o look_v for_o it_o to_o come_v and_o therefore_o they_o be_v to_o leave_v that_o doctrine_n which_o do_v hold_v forth_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v and_o they_o as_o well_o as_o we_o now_o be_v exhort_v to_o look_v upon_o the_o work_n of_o christ_n perfect_o do_v and_o christ_n rise_v and_o become_v the_o first_o fruit_n unto_o god_n etc._n etc._n for_o there_o be_v no_o perfection_n of_o the_o work_n till_o christ_n be_v rise_v and_o if_o christ_n have_v never_o rise_v the_o work_n have_v never_o be_v perfect_v but_o we_o have_v still_o be_v in_o our_o sin_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 14._o 17_o rom_n 4._o 25._o act._n 2._o 31._o col._n 1._o 14_o 15_o 18_o etc._n etc._n now_o if_o we_o shall_v wait_v for_o this_o resurrection_n any_o long_o we_o be_v antichrist_n with_o a_o witness_n and_o take_v christ_n for_o a_o deceiver_n as_o the_o old_a jew_n do_v 6_o last_o we_o come_v now_o to_o speak_v of_o eternal_a judgement_n that_o be_v to_o be_v leave_v and_o here_o also_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n we_o do_v not_o mistake_v as_o in_o the_o rest_n of_o these_o doctrine_n now_o as_o christ_n have_v undertake_v to_o encounter_v with_o eternal_a judgement_n and_o have_v try_v the_o utmost_a what_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n can_v inflict_v upon_o he_o and_o

be_v rise_v in_o token_n of_o a_o full_a victory_n over_o all_o now_o the_o people_n be_v no_o long_o to_o wait_v and_o look_v for_o this_o great_a work_n to_o be_v do_v by_o christ_n in_o time_n to_o come_v but_o look_v upon_o christ_n rise_v and_o glorify_v and_o have_v finish_v this_o great_a work_n of_o eternal_a judgement_n and_o so_o to_o leave_v that_o doctrine_n which_o declare_v it_o to_o come_v and_o look_v upon_o it_o perfect_o do_v wait_v for_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o even_o the_o destruction_n of_o sin_n in_o they_o but_o in_o this_o sense_n we_o be_v to_o wait_v for_o eternal_a judgement_n still_o which_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o christ_n conquer_a eternal_a judgement_n and_o this_o be_v the_o final_a destruction_n of_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n root_a out_o and_o destroy_v all_o sin_n and_o evil_n in_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n for_o whstm_n he_o have_v destroy_v and_o overcome_v judgement_n sin_n death_n and_o hell_n and_o all_o enemy_n and_o now_o though_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n more_o than_o conqueror_n yet_o we_o see_v not_o all_o enemy_n destroy_v in_o our_o own_o self_n yet_o but_o we_o be_v still_o in_o expectation_n of_o the_o destruction_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n which_o be_v the_o last_o enemy_n that_o shall_v be_v destroy_v and_o so_o though_o eternal_a judgement_n

be_v rest_v in_o for_o now_o christ_n be_v exalt_v and_o make_v lord_n of_o all_o and_o a_o prince_n to_o give_v repentance_n indeed_o and_o true_a and_o real_a remission_n of_o sin_n in_o spirit_n life_n and_o power_n which_o shall_v never_o be_v repent_v of_o but_o man_n may_v repent_v of_o a_o feign_a repentance_n as_o may_v be_v take_v up_o from_o any_o outward_a form_n or_o outward_a reformation_n which_o be_v in_o flesh_n not_o in_o spirit_n which_o be_v but_o a_o show_n of_o repentance_n 2_o now_o that_o faith_n that_o john_n teach_v shall_v now_o be_v lay_v aside_o which_o be_v that_o the_o people_n shall_v according_a to_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n expect_v christ_n to_o come_v after_o he_o and_o shall_v fulfil_v all_o that_o be_v testify_v of_o he_o concern_v man_n salvation_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v for_o sin_n take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o now_o they_o shall_v no_o long_o look_v after_o a_o christ_n to_o come_v and_o so_o live_v under_o type_n and_o shadow_n still_o but_o now_o they_o shall_v look_v upon_o all_o the_o promise_v fulfil_v and_o all_o finish_v christ_n have_v suffer_v and_o rise_v and_o be_v glorify_v and_o now_o they_o be_v to_o believe_v all_o fulfil_v that_o be_v promise_v of_o christ_n as_o peter_n declare_v act._n 3._o 18._o and_o not_o to_o look_v for_o it_o to_o come_v as_o

baptism_n be_v not_o come_v and_o he_o do_v figure_n out_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o baptism_n but_o when_o the_o true_a baptism_n of_o all_o baptism_n be_v come_v than_o they_o be_v

you_o see_v there_o be_v scripture_n for_o leave_v out_o some_o baptism_n and_o there_o be_v also_o scripture_n for_o the_o continuance_n of_o one_o baptism_n eph._n 4._o 5._o there_o be_v one_o
