be_v a_o stand_v and_o perpetual_a ordinance_n in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 2_o that_o as_o many_o as_o be_v call_v minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v also_o commissionated_a too_o baptise_v also_o go_v teach_v all_o nation_n baptise_v they_o 3_o that_o water_n baptism_n or_o the_o external_n ordinance_n be_v that_o enjoin_v or_o command_v in_o the_o word_n and_o not_o the_o baptism_n with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n for_o it_o be_v enjoin_v to_o mere_a man_n who_o can_v do_v no_o more_o than_o john_n can_v do_v who_o profess_v he_o baptize_v with_o water_n and_o yet_o we_o believe_v many_o who_o be_v baptize_v by_o john_n receive_v also_o the_o holy_a ghost_n otherwise_o a_o very_a empty_a and_o insignificant_a ordinance_n and_o unprofitable_a to_o all_o if_o nothing_o else_o be_v reap_v thereby_o but_o sprinkle_v or_o wash_v with_o water_n and_o yet_o the_o outward_a mean_a ordinance_n and_o administration_n be_v from_o john_n and_o the_o fruit_n efficacy_n and_o blessing_n be_v from_o jesus_n christ_n and_o it_o be_v bold_a impudence_n and_o arrogant_a presumption_n for_o any_o to_o pretend_v to_o baptise_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n which_o be_v christ_n peculiar_a work_n and_o prerogative_n and_o keith_n answer_v here_o unto_o in_o his_o book_n be_v void_a of_o all_o satisfaction_n to_o any_o intelligent_a person_n for_o he_o affirm_v though_o no_o man_n baptise_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n efficient_o yet_o they_o may_v instrumental_o we_o who_o use_v the_o outward_a mean_a instrument_n and_o ordinance_n may_v through_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n and_o efficacious_a presence_n of_o christ_n spirit_n and_o undoubted_o be_v make_v instrument_n of_o the_o inward_a grace_n life_n and_o advantage_n of_o that_o ordinance_n but_o how_o quaker_n can_v be_v instrument_n of_o baptise_v spiritual_o who_o be_v opposite_a to_o and_o ridicule_n the_o outward_a ordinance_n which_o be_v the_o only_a proper_a mean_n and_o instrument_n of_o god_n own_o appointment_n i_o can_v resolve_v unless_o they_o
