the_o exception_n of_o mr._n saltmarsh_n against_o rebaptise_v in_o his_o smoke_n in_o the_o temple_n page_n 10._o etc._n etc._n some_o of_o which_o i_o have_v here_o insert_v ●ith_o little_a alteration_n 1._o that_o anabaptisticall_a disciple_n can_v so_o baptise_v as_o the_o first_o do_v because_o they_o be_v not_o so_o gift_v and_o qualify_v as_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n be_v 2._o that_o there_o be_v nver_o any_o one_o disciple_n in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n that_o do_v baptise_v by_o way_n of_o authority_n but_o he_o be_v able_a to_o make_v out_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o call_n and_o dispensation_n either_o by_o miracle_n or_o gift_n 3._o those_o ought_v not_o now_o to_o rebaptise_v that_o take_v it_o thus_o upon_o they_o unless_o they_o can_v give_v out_o the_o holy_a ghost_n with_o it_o which_o they_o can_v do_v 4._o that_o the_o church_n where_o rebaptise_v be_v use_v where_o they_o pretend_v most_o full_a and_o pure_a practice_n of_o ordinance_n yet_o have_v no_o great_a gist_n than_o other_o church_n but_o more_o particular_o now_o to_o the_o main_a argument_n of_o one_o of_o the_o chief_a of_o their_o champion_n 1._o he_o argue_v thus_o that_o which_o god_n have_v join_v together_o no_o man_n ought_v to_o separate_v but_o faith_n or_o dip_v according_a to_o the_o original_n no_o man_n ought_v to_o separate_v 1._o reply_v though_o the_o major_n be_v true_a yet_o the_o minor_a and_o the_o argument_n be_v both_o false_a for_o faith_n and_o baptism_n be_v not_o inseparable_o join_v together_o though_o the_o apostle_n be_v send_v to_o preach_v and_o baptise_v all_o nation_n math._n 28.19_o yet_o many_o afterward_o fell_a and_o perish_v in_o unbelief_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a many_o have_v go_v to_o heaven_n that_o be_v never_o baptize_v for_o we_o be_v all_o the_o child_n of_o god_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n gal._n 3.26_o and_o baptism_n be_v not_o here_o annex_v and_o although_o a_o man_n be_v baptize_v or_o dip_v if_o he_o believe_v not_o he_o shall_v be_v damn_v all_o christian_n or_o saint_n be_v not_o make_v so_o by_o baptism_n but_o by_o another_o work_n 2._o reply_v by_o this_o argument_n none_o now_o shall_v be_v baptize_v until_o they_o be_v able_a to_o work_v sign_n which_o christ_n say_v shall_v follow_v those_o that_o do_v believe_v mark_n 16.17_o and_o if_o you_o will_v grant_v sign_n or_o miracle_n be_v cease_v so_o also_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o desern_v who_o be_v believer_n but_o in_o the_o next_o place_n he_o cite_v the_o decree_n of_o pope_n inocentius_n the_o three_o and_o the_o decree_n of_o gregory_n to_o prove_v baptism_n antichristian_a to_o which_o for_o answer_v know_v that_o we_o have_v a_o far_o better_a ground_n 1._o because_o they_o belong_v to_o the_o covenant_n gen._n 17.7_o second_o they_o be_v call_v holy_a 1_o cor._n 7.14_o three_o which_o be_v most_o of_o all_o they_o be_v redeem_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n

the_o household_n nor_o prove_v no_o child_n to_o be_v there_o and_o upon_o this_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n it_o be_v that_o so_o many_o of_o latter_a as_o well_o
