best_a learned_a among_o they_o teach_v that_o sacrament_n be_v physical_a instrument_n that_o be_v true_a and_o proper_a instrumental_a 6_o cause_n have_v force_n and_o efficacy_n in_o they_o to_o produce_v and_o give_v grace_n they_o use_v to_o express_v their_o meaning_n by_o these_o comparison_n when_o the_o scrivener_n take_v the_o pen_n into_o his_o hand_n and_o write_v the_o action_n of_o writing_n come_v from_o the_o pen_n move_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o writer_n and_o in_o cut_v of_o wood_n or_o stone_n the_o division_n come_v from_o the_o see_v move_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o workman_n even_o so_o the_o grace_n say_v they_o that_o be_v give_v by_o god_n be_v confer_v by_o the_o sacrament_n itself_o now_o we_o for_o our_o part_n hold_v that_o sacrament_n be_v not_o physical_a but_o mere_a voluntary_a instrument_n voluntary_a because_o it_o be_v the_o will_n and_o appointment_n of_o god_n to_o use_v they_o as_o certain_a outward_a mean_n of_o grace_n instrument_n because_o when_o we_o use_v they_o aright_o according_a to_o the_o institution_n god_n then_o answerable_o confer_v grace_n from_o himself_o in_o this_o respect_n only_o take_v we_o they_o for_o instrument_n and_o no_o otherwise_o the_o second_o difference_n be_v this_o they_o teach_v that_o the_o very_a action_n of_o the_o minister_n dispense_n the_o sacrament_n as_o it_o be_v a_o work_n do_v give_v grace_n immediate_o if_o the_o party_n be_v prepare_v as_o the_o very_a wash_n or_o sprinkle_v of_o water_n in_o baptism_n and_o the_o give_v of_o bread_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n even_o as_o the_o orderly_a move_n of_o the_o pen_n upon_o the_o paper_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o writer_n cause_v write_v we_o hold_v the_o contrary_a namely_o that_o no_o action_n in_o the_o dispensation_n of_o a_o sacrament_n confer_v grace_n as_o it_o be_v a_o work_n do_v that_o be_v by_o the_o efficacy_n and_o force_n of_o the_o very_a sacramental_a action_n itself_o though_o ordain_v of_o god_n but_o for_o two_o other_o way_n first_o by_o the_o signification_n thereof_o for_o god_n testify_v unto_o we_o his_o will_n and_o good_a pleasure_n partly_o by_o the_o word_n of_o promise_n and_o partly_o by_o the_o sacrament_n the_o sign_n represent_v to_o the_o eye_n that_o which_o the_o word_n do_v to_o the_o ear_n be_v also_o type_n and_o certain_a image_n of_o the_o very_a same_o thing_n that_o be_v promise_v in_o the_o word_n and_o no_o other_o yea_o the_o element_n be_v not_o general_a and_o confuse_a but_o particular_a sign_n to_o the_o several_a communicant_n and_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o institution_n for_o when_o the_o faithful_a receive_v the_o sign_n from_o god_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o minister_n it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o god_n himself_o with_o his_o own_o mouth_n shall_v speak_v unto_o they_o several_o and_o by_o name_n promise_n to_o they_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o thing_n say_v to_o man_n particular_o do_v more_o affect_v and_o more_o take_v away_o doubt_v then_o if_o they_o be_v general_o speak_v to_o a_o whole_a company_n therefore_o sign_n of_o grace_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o apply_v and_o bind_v of_o the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n to_o every_o particular_a believer_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n the_o often_o they_o be_v receive_v the_o more_o they_o help_v our_o infirmity_n and_o confirm_v our_o assurance_n of_o mercy_n again_o the_o sacrament_n confer_v grace_n in_o that_o the_o sign_n thereof_o confirm_v faith_n as_o a_o pledge_n by_o reason_n it_o have_v a_o promise_n annex_v to_o it_o for_o when_o god_n command_v we_o to_o receive_v the_o sign_n in_o faith_n and_o withal_o promise_v to_o the_o receiver_n to_o give_v the_o thing_n signify_v he_o bind_v himself_o as_o it_o be_v in_o bond_n unto_o we_o to_o stand_v to_o his_o own_o word_n even_o as_o man_n bind_v themselves_o in_o obligation_n put_v to_o their_o hand_n and_o seal_n so_o as_o they_o can_v go_v back_o and_o when_o the_o sign_n be_v thus_o use_v as_o pledge_n &_o that_o often_o they_o great_o increase_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n as_o a_o token_n send_v from_o one_o friend_n to_o another_o renew_v and_o confirm_v the_o persuasion_n of_o love_n these_o be_v the_o two_o principal_a way_n whereby_o the_o sacrament_n be_v say_v to_o confer_v grace_n namely_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o signification_n and_o as_o they_o be_v pledge_n of_o god_n favour_n unto_o us._n and_o the_o very_a point_n here_o to_o be_v consider_v be_v in_o what_o order_n and_o manner_n they_o confirm_v and_o the_o manner_n be_v this_o the_o sign_n and_o

and_o repentance_n say_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o believer_n therefore_o shall_v i_o receive_v from_o god_n increase_n of_o grace_n thus_o then_o faith_n be_v confirm_v not_o by_o the_o work_n do_v
