A94351	The fourth principle of Christian religion: or, the foundation doctrine of laying on of hands. Asserted and vindicated by way of answer to such arguments as by Lieutenant Colonel Paul Hobson have been presented against this Gospel ordinance. Affectionately tendred to such enquiring souls as are desirous throughly to forsake Babylon notion an humane tradition, and by universall obedience to follow the lamb in all his righteous appointments. / By Tho.

ever_o baptise_v one_o person_n before_o this_o power_n come_v or_o else_o he_o have_v but_o delude_v you_o in_o make_v you_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v need_n of_o a_o great_a power_n for_o administer_a the_o ordinance_n of_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n than_o there_o needs_o for_o preach_v and_o baptism_n for_o that_o be_v his_o full_a scope_n and_o design_n in_o which_o i_o appeal_v to_o any_o ingenuous_a soul_n nay_o i_o appeal_v to_o himself_o second_o he_o will_v persuade_v person_n but_o than_o they_o must_v be_v very_o ignorant_a that_o the_o miraculous_a visible_a power_n be_v the_o essence_n of_o the_o ordinance_n whereas_o i_o have_v abundant_o prove_v that_o the_o command_n of_o christ_n give_v essence_n to_o the_o ordinance_n and_o that_o the_o communicate_v of_o the_o spirit_n gift_n be_v the_o full_a end_n of_o the_o ordinance_n to_o obedient_a soul_n for_o christ_n honour_n and_o i_o have_v also_o prove_v that_o the_o spirit_n have_v communicate_v better_a gift_n and_o more_o glorious_a power_n through_o this_o ordinance_n than_o ever_o be_v or_o can_v be_v visible_a to_o a_o natural_a eye_n 1_o cor._n 2.9_o ad_fw-la finem_fw-la and_o that_o the_o same_o gift_n still_o remain_v for_o which_o by_o all_o mean_v we_o shall_v endeavour_v thus_o i_o hope_v it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o same_o power_n be_v requisite_a for_o preach_v baptism_n and_o other_o gospel_n ordinance_n as_o for_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n and_o that_o the_o very_a same_o power_n have_v accompany_v preach_v as_o have_v attend_v the_o four_o principle_n and_o as_o often_o have_v it_o appear_v in_o the_o one_o as_o in_o the_o other_o wherefore_o consider_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n what_o a_o design_n be_v here_o lay_v to_o raze_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o ordinance_n and_o level_v they_o with_o the_o dust_n and_o indeed_o what_o presumption_n be_v it_o for_o the_o gent._n to_o preach_v baptise_v break-bread_n etc._n etc._n and_o yet_o want_v the_o essence_n of_o these_o ordinance_n if_o it_o be_v true_a as_o he_o hold_v forth_o that_o the_o visible_a miraculous_a power_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o essence_n of_o ordinance_n but_o to_o the_o gent._n five_o absurdity_n which_o he_o say_v be_v injurious_a to_o jesus_n christ_n who_o bring_v forth_o a_o act_n to_o show_v his_o power_n and_o yet_o we_o have_v not_o the_o power_n do_v imitate_v the_o act_n turn_v act_n of_o power_n into_o bare_a imitation_n and_o so_o be_v injurious_a to_o christ_n intention_n answ_n 1._o all_o the_o act_n which_o christ_n bring_v forth_o be_v act_n of_o power_n since_o all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v put_v into_o his_o hand_n we_o profess_v he_o can_v act_v unlike_o himself_o therefore_o we_o be_v slander_v in_o be_v
