death_n be_v come_v over_o all_o for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v so_o he_o suffer_v for_o we_o the_o just_a for_o the_o unjust_a that_o he_o may_v bring_v we_o to_o god_n and_o they_o that_o take_v up_o his_o cross_n deny_v themselves_o and_o follow_v he_o and_o share_v with_o he_o of_o his_o cup_n of_o his_o suffering_n and_o of_o his_o baptism_n so_o i_o hope_v i_o need_v say_v no_o more_o of_o this_o to_o show_v there_o be_v a_o baptise_v dip_v or_o plunge_v into_o other_o thing_n beside_o water_n and_o that_o this_o and_o not_o outward_a water_n tend_v thorough_o to_o wash_v purge_v

though_o we_o grant_v some_o apostle_n do_v use_v water-baptism_n for_o a_o time_n not_o see_v full_o through_o thing_n at_o first_o as_o they_o do_v afterward_o yet_o they_o have_v no_o command_n for_o it_o for_o christ_n himself_o baptise_a none_o with_o water_n nor_o give_v his_o apostle_n any_o commission_n to_o do_v it_o so_o that_o after_o some_o time_n that_o they_o grow_v up_o to_o

and_o end_v of_o all_o they_o do_v both_o in_o circumcision_n passover_n vow_n and_o seven_o day_n purification_n and_o water-baptism_n yea_o and_o all_o those_o thing_n concern_v meat_n and_o other_o thing_n that_o they_o do_v by_o permission_n and_o not_o by_o commission_n from_o christ_n i_o say_v their_o intent_n in_o all_o these_o be_v never_o to_o establish_v they_o with_o christ_n jesus_n to_o abide_v as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n last_v no_o but_o after_o they_o have_v hold_v they_o in_o hand_n in_o order_n to_o get_v they_o on_o they_o take_v all_o occasion_n they_o can_v to_o bring_v they_o on_o further_a till_o they_o all_o come_v in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o faith_n unto_o a_o perfect_a man_n in_o christ_n jesus_n unto_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o stature_n of_o

glory_n be_v whole_o due_a unto_o he_o and_o so_o now_o they_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o one_o baptism_n one_o faith_n and_o one_o lord_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o that_o by_o one_o spirit_n they_o be_v all_o baptise_a into_o one_o body_n mark_n they_o be_v all_o he_o say_v all_z baptise_a by_o one_o spirit_n into_o one_o body_n and_o have_v all_o be_v make_v to_o drink_v into_o one_o spirit_n but_o none_o can_v prove_v that_o alice_n be_v baptise_a into_o water_n for_o paul_n be_v instrumental_a in_o the_o lord_n hand_n for_o the_o convince_a and_o convert_v of_o many_o but_o he_o say_v he_o baptise_a none_o but_o crispus_n and_o gaius_n and_o the_o household_n of_o stephanus_n beside_o say_v he_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o i_o baptise_a any_o other_o but_o many_o be_v convince_v by_o he_o doubtless_o very_o many_o yea_o multitude_n yet_o no_o man_n can_v prove_v that_o all_o that_o be_v convince_v and_o convert_v by_o the_o gift_n of_o paul_n be_v also_o all_o baptise_a into_o water_n yet_o say_v he_o you_o be_v all_o baptise_a by_o one_o spirit_n and_o have_v be_v all_o make_v to_o drink_v into_o one_o spirit_n and_o there_o be_v one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o baptism_n well_o but_o say_v you_o baptist_n he_o do_v not_o say_v there_o be_v but_o one_o baptism_n no_o nor_o do_v he_o not_o say_v there_o be_v but_o one_o lord_n must_v we_o therefore_o say_v there_o be_v more_o lord_n than_o one_o god_n forbid_v for_o to_o we_o there_o be_v but_o one_o lord_n and_o he_o do_v not_o say_v there_o be_v but_o one_o faith_n must_v we_o therefore_o say_v there_o be_v more_o faith_n than_o one_o so_o he_o also_o say_v there_o be_v one_o baptism_n and_o so_o say_v we_o too_o and_o that_o one_o be_v promise_v and_o accomplish_v and_o command_v for_o we_o believe_v as_o christ_n say_v the_o work_n that_o i_o do_v mark_v you_o the_o work_n that_o i_o do_v shall_v you_o do_v and_o great_a work_n than_o these_o shall_v you_o do_v but_o it_o be_v plain_o say_v that_o christ_n baptise_a not_o i_o say_v not_o with_o water_n but_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o do_v you_o think_v that_o he_o use_v one_o baptism_n to_o they_o and_o command_v they_o to_o use_v another_o to_o they_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o do_v you_o think_v that_o he_o baptise_a they_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o then_o send_v they_o out_o to_o baptise_v with_o water_n i_o know_v whatever_o ever_o you_o believe_v you_o have_v say_v no_o less_o but_o you_o can_v never_o prove_v it_o for_o the_o work_n that_o i_o do_v shall_v you_o do_v but_o christ_n baptise_a not_o into_o water_n nor_o never_o say_v that_o they_o shall_v that_o you_o or_o any_o other_o can_v prove_v for_o peter_n in_o act_n 11._o declare_v what_o the_o lord_n say_v when_o the_o disciple_n be_v talk_v with_o he_o about_o his_o go_v unto_o the_o gentile_n then_o say_v he_o i_o remember_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n how_o that_o the_o lord_n say_v mark_v you_o christ_n word_n the_o lord_n say_v john_n baptise_a with_o water_n but_o you_o shall_v be_v baptise_a with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o he_o no_o where_o mention_n water_n by_o way_n command_v they_o to_o use_v it_o in_o baptism_n but_o say_v you_o shall_v be_v baptise_a with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o go_v you_o teach_v all_o nation_n baptise_v they_o into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n and_o lo_o i_o be_o with_o you_o but_o far_o i_o remember_v you_o baptist_n have_v say_v that_o your_o baptism_n into_o water_n do_v signify_v death_n burial_n and_o resurrection_n by_o which_o word_n you_o acknowledge_v it_o be_v but_o a_o type_n and_o you_o far_o say_v that_o no_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v bury_v before_o he_o be_v dead_a now_o i_o conclude_v that_o the_o dead_a you_o mean_v be_v such_o as_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n and_o if_o so_o how_o can_v you_o that_o be_v dead_a to_o sin_n live_v any_o long_a therein_o know_v you_o not_o say_v paul_n in_o rom._n 6.2_o that_o so_o many_o of_o we_o as_o be_v baptise_a into_o mark_n into_z jesus_n christ_n be_v baptise_a into_o his_o death_n therefore_o we_o be_v bury_v with_o he_o by_o baptism_n into_o death_n that_o like_a as_o christ_n be_v raise_v up_o from_o the_o dead_a by_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n even_o so_o we_o also_o shall_v walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n and_o in_o vers._n 7._o for_o he_o that_o be_v dead_a be_v free_v from_o sin_n well_o let_v i_o ask_v you_o be_v you_o thus_o dead_a bury_v and_o rise_v with_o he_o by_o your_o water-baptism_n or_o can_v any_o man_n conclude_v that_o paul_n here_o speak_v of_o water-baptism_n be_v it_o not_o plain_o say_v into_o christ_n not_o into_o water_n but_o into_o christ_n into_o death_n and_o in_o gal._n 3.27_o for_o as_o many_o of_o you_o as_o have_v be_v baptise_a into_o christ_n have_v put_v on_o christ_n and_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n be_v new_a creature_n behold_v all_o you_o water-baptizers_a all_o old_a thing_n pass_v away_o and_o all_o thing_n become_v new_a a_o new_a heaven_n and_o a_o new_a earth_n in_o which_o dwell_v righteousness_n and_o we_o say_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n inhabit_v in_o the_o new_a and_o live_a way_n that_o which_o be_v pure_a and_o change_v not_o but_o endure_v for_o ever_o and_o in_o righteousness_n be_v they_o establish_v and_o act_n not_o by_o the_o power_n of_o a_o carnal_a commandment_n but_o in_o the_o power_n of_o a_o endless_a life_n not_o in_o imitation_n of_o the_o letter_n but_o in_o the_o demonstration_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o although_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o as_o you_o will_v have_v it_o that_o christ_n have_v command_v the_o apostle_n to_o baptise_v into_o water_n as_o he_o never_o do_v nor_o can_v it_o be_v ever_o prove_v yet_o if_o it_o have_v be_v so_o what_o
