in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n can_v bestow_v upon_o any_o first_o reasins_z 1_o one_o general_a reason_n of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v that_o every_o good_a give_v and_o every_o perfect_a gift_n be_v from_o above_o and_o come_v down_o from_o the_o father_n of_o light_n 1.17_o james_n 1.17_o now_o what_o more_o excellent_a &_o perfect_a gift_n can_v there_o be_v then_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o if_o god_n be_v the_o author_n and_o giver_n of_o all_o other_o good_a thing_n this_o must_v of_o necessity_n proceed_v from_o his_o bounty_n in_o a_o special_a manner_n a_o second_o cause_n why_o god_n will_v have_v the_o dispose_n of_o his_o grace_n in_o his_o own_o hand_n be_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o difference_n between_o he_o and_o all_o his_o minister_n and_o that_o he_o may_v retain_v that_o prerogative_n for_o christ_n jesus_n alone_o for_o he_o it_o be_v that_o give_v the_o meat_n which_o endure_v to_o everlasting_a life_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o father_n have_v seal_v he_o that_o be_v the_o lord_n have_v authorize_v he_o by_o the_o broad_a seal_n of_o heaven_n and_o will_v et_fw-fr none_n to_o be_v copartner_n with_o he_o in_o that_o office_n he_o be_v the_o lord_n treasurer_n of_o all_o grace_n and_o therefore_o he_o must_v bless_v his_o ordinance_n unto_o we_o if_o ever_o we_o look_v for_o benefit_n thereby_o in_o which_o regard_n john_n baptist_n say_v i_o baptize_v you_o with_o water_n &_o that_o be_v all_o that_o he_o can_v do_v as_o for_o wash_v of_o the_o heart_n and_o purge_v of_o the_o conscience_n that_o he_o attribute_v whole_o unto_o christ_n jesus_n 3.11_o matth._n 3.11_o he_o will_v baptize_v you_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n john_n will_v not_o arrogate_v

the_o lord_n will_v have_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o sacrament_n to_o be_v in_o his_o own_o power_n to_o bestow_v where_o &_o how_o he_o will_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o difference_n between_o
