A76237 A seasonable warning and word of advice to all papists, but most especially to those of the kingdome of France; for them to turn from their idolatry, and gross superstition, and speedily to repent, and hast to meet the Lord by amendment of life, least he come on them, and smite them unawares ... / Charles Baily.

here_o you_o will_v come_v to_o know_v what_o the_o true_a baptism_n of_o christ_n jesus_n be_v which_o be_v the_o fire_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n without_o which_o you_o can_v witness_v the_o

of_o the_o filth_n of_o the_o flesh_n but_o the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n and_o this_o be_v the_o only_a baptism_n which_o must_v be_v witness_v by_o all_o before_o they_o come_v to_o a_o christian_n life_n for_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v there_o be_v but_o one_o baptism_n which_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o john_n say_v he_o be_v to_o
