of_o its_o application_n in_o its_o mystery_n for_o the_o say_a end_n 3._o lay_v down_o the_o person_n who_o first_o receive_v circumcision_n and_o the_o person_n who_o be_v in_o the_o first_o dispensation_n always_o to_o be_v circumcise_a and_o last_o offer_v to_o consideration_n whether_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v grant_v that_o the_o then_o circumcise_a be_v than_o particular_o and_o intentional_o to_o be_v baptize_v in_o reference_n to_o the_o remove_n of_o all_o sin_n for_o that_o the_o natural_a dependency_n betwixt_o they_o as_o aforesaid_a be_v so_o near_o and_o essential_o annex_v together_o as_o aforesaid_a that_o one_o can_v be_v efficacious_a and_o useful_a without_o the_o other_o and_o that_o therefore_o none_o of_o we_o can_v have_v fellowship_n with_o the_o lord_n without_o the_o operation_n of_o they_o both_o respective_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o abraham_n receive_v the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n as_o the_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o faith_n he_o have_v in_o his_o uncircumcision_n whence_o it_o be_v evident_a he_o have_v the_o inward_a and_o spiritual_a circumcision_n before_o he_o have_v the_o outward_a and_o have_v spiritual_a baptism_n also_o for_o that_o he_o have_v in_o his_o uncircumcision_n say_v the_o text_n before_o he_o be_v outward_o circumcise_a the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o purify_v the_o heart_n act_v 1.5_o now_o faith_n be_v annex_v to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n say_v our_o saviour_n matt._n 28._o and_o mark_v 16.17_o hence_o abraham_n receive_v also_o as_o aforesaid_a spiritual_a baptism_n in_o his_o circumcision_n and_o therefore_o we_o believe_v that_o spiritual_a circumcision_n and_o spiritual_a baptism_n be_v to_o be_v receive_v and_o intend_v to_o be_v so_o together_o though_o but_o the_o outward_a dispensation_n of_o circumcision_n be_v appoint_v only_o at_o first_o to_o be_v in_o practice_n yet_o that_o baptism_n be_v indeed_o intend_v in_o its_o spiritual_a use_n also_o appear_v by_o that_o 1_o cor._n 10.1_o 2._o moreover_o brethren_n i_o will_v not_o that_o you_o shall_v be_v ignorant_a how_o that_o our_o father_n be_v all_o under_o the_o

baptize_v with_o the_o ceremony_n of_o baptism_n also_o who_o be_v but_o practical_o circumcise_a only_a as_o aforesaid_a hence_o where_o one_o of_o the_o say_a ordinance_n be_v outward_o by_o dispensation_n appoint_v of_o right_a and_o by_o god_n appointment_n the_o other_o also_o be_v and_o must_v interpretative_o as_o aforesaid_a be_v understand_v to_o belong_v and_o therefore_o it_o will_v infer_v also_o infant_n baptism_n to_o be_v just_a and_o reasonable_a upon_o the_o account_n of_o god_n appoint_v israelites_n infant_n to_o be_v circumcise_a in_o truth_n but_o we_o leave_v it_o to_o be_v serious_o think_v on_o and_o consider_v and_o argue_v it_o at_o present_a no_o far_o on_o that_o account_n but_o pass_v on_o to_o set_v forth_o circumcision_n according_a as_o before_o
