come_v in_o the_o flesh_n as_o this_o precept_n have_v to_o continue_v unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n yet_o they_o do_v believe_v it_o be_v their_o duty_n as_o have_v be_v prove_v but_o sure_o

say_v 1_o pet._n 3.15_o to_o give_v a_o reason_n of_o my_o faith_n i_o shall_v reason_v from_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n to_o clear_v the_o duration_n continuation_n of_o water-baptism_n take_v this_o reason_n or_o argument_n that_o which_o christ_n have_v command_v to_o be_v teach_v and_o preach_v in_o all_o nation_n and_o in_o all_o age_n and_o have_v promise_v his_o presence_n with_o

therefore_o water-baptism_n be_v to_o continue_v remain_z unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n that_o which_o some_o will_v question_v be_v the_o middle_a proposition_n that_o it_o must_v be_v practise_v in_o all_o nation_n be_v clear_a and_o evident_a say_v christ_n go_v you_o and_o teach_v and_o baptise_v all_o nation_n what_o can_v be_v more_o clear_a second_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v in_o all_o age_n that_o be_v as_o clear_v for_o all_o nation_n be_v not_o in_o be_v in_o that_o age_n therefore_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o he_o intend_v succeed_v age_n for_o say_v he_o teach_v they_o with_o those_o that_o be_v to_o follow_v and_o so_o every_o age_n after_o another_o whatsoever_o i_o command_v you_o and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o it_o be_v to_o

16.16_o where_o he_o command_v the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v preach_v to_o every_o creature_n upon_o term_n of_o faith_n and_o baptism_n go_v and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n he_o

then_o this_o i_o say_v to_o all_o such_o as_o kick_v at_o the_o ordinance_n of_o water-baptism_n that_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v by_o the_o subtle_a deceiver_n at_o this_o day_n that_o christ_n have_v
