baptize_v must_v first_o be_v teach_v and_o make_v disciple_n and_o then_o baptize_v as_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v in_o the_o word_n baptize_v they_o that_o be_v such_o as_o before_o have_v be_v teach_v and_o make_v disciple_n from_o whence_o you_o may_v see_v that_o disciple_n viz._n believe_a man_n and_o woman_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v it_o be_v the_o last_o will_n and_o

reason_n which_o be_v reas_n 2._o because_o disciple_n viz._n believer_n be_v the_o subject_n that_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n baptize_v and_o we_o be_v to_o follow_v their_o step_n and_o now_o to_o prove_v that_o christ_n and_o the_o apostle_n do_v baptize_v such_o read_z john_n 4.1_o when_o the_o lord_n know_v that_o the_o pharisee_n have_v hear_v that_o jesus_n make_v and_o baptize_v more_o disciple_n than_o john_n though_o jesus_n baptize_v not_o but_o his_o disciple_n from_o whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o jesus_n make_v disciple_n before_o he_o do_v baptize_v they_o and_o also_o we_o see_v it_o be_v the_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n practise_v so_o to_o do_v as_o acts._n 8.12_o it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o the_o samaritan_n do_v believe_v they_o be_v baptize_v man_n and_o woman_n but_o no_o mention_n at_o all_o of_o child_n so_o than_o believer_n be_v the_o subject_n who_o be_v to_o be_v baptize_v reas_n 3._o three_o believer_n be_v the_o subject_n because_o none_o be_v account_v as_o member_n in_o the_o new_a covenant_n so_o as_o to_o have_v right_a to_o gospel_n administration_n but_o such_o as_o know_v the_o lord_n viz._n believe_v in_o his_o name_n for_o so_o say_v the_o scripture_n heb._n 8._o for_o this_o be_v the_o covenant_n that_o i_o make_v after_o those_o day_n say_v the_o lord_n they_o shall_v not_o teach_v every_o one_o his_o neighbour_n and_o every_o man_n his_o brother_n say_v know_v the_o lord_n for_o they_o shall_v know_v i_o from_o the_o least_o even_o to_o the_o great_a from_o whence_o we_o see_v that_o the_o least_o member_n in_o the_o gospel-covenant_n must_v know_v the_o lord_n but_o child_n of_o seven_o or_o eight_o day_n old_a know_v he_o not_o and_o therefore_o have_v not_o right_a to_o gospel-administrations_a only_a believer_n that_o know_v god_n for_o they_o shall_v all_o know_v he_o from_o the_o least_o to_o the_o great_a as_o say_v the_o text_n and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o four_o reason_n which_o be_v reas_n 4._o because_o those_o that_o have_v right_a to_o be_v baptise_a may_v and_o aught_o to_o eat_v the_o lord_n supper_n the_o which_o be_v not_o meet_v for_o child_n to_o do_v for_o it_o be_v a_o feast_n that_o believer_n only_o have_v a_o right_a to_o partake_v of_o but_o all_o baptize_v once_o even_o such_o as_o have_v right_a to_o the_o new_a covenant_n have_v right_a to_o the_o supper_n and_o all_o other_o covenant_n privilege_n for_o so_o say_v the_o scripture_n act_v 2.41_o 42._o then_o they_o that_o glad_o receive_v the_o word_n be_v baptize_v and_o the_o same_o day_n be_v add_v to_o the_o church_n about_o three_o thousand_o soul_n and_o they_o continue_v steadfast_a in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n and_o fellowship_n and_o in_o break_v of_o bread_n and_o prayer_n from_o whence_o we_o see_v that_o no_o more_o be_v baptize_v but_o those_o that_o glad_o receive_v the_o word_n and_o they_o that_o be_v baptize_v continue_v in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n in_o fellowship_n and_o in_o break_v of_o bread_n viz._n the_o lord_n supper_n and_o prayer_n therefore_o believe_v man_n and_o woman_n and_o not_o child_n be_v the_o right_a subject_n of_o baptism_n and_o aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v they_o have_v a_o command_n enjoin_v they_o thereunto_o and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o five_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o disciple_n viz._n believe_a man_n and_o woman_n be_v the_o only_a fit_a subject_n of_o baptism_n which_o be_v reas_n 5._o because_o christ_n be_v baptize_v when_o he_o come_v to_o be_v of_o year_n of_o discretion_n be_v about_o thirty_o year_n old_a as_o you_o may_v read_v luk._n 3._o and_o christ_n be_v give_v to_o be_v a_o leader_n to_o his_o people_n isa_n 55.4_o now_o if_o christ_n be_v not_o baptize_v before_o he_o come_v to_o be_v of_o year_n of_o discretion_n and_o he_o give_v to_o lead_v we_o a_o example_n than_o we_o ought_v not_o also_o to_o be_v baptize_v till_o we_o be_v of_o year_n of_o discretion_n and_o so_o follow_v his_o step_n the_o former_a of_o these_o be_v true_a and_o the_o consequence_n can_v in_o truth_n be_v deny_v and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o six_o reason_n to_o prove_v believer_n the_o only_a subject_n of_o baptism_n reas_n 6._o because_o repentance_n and_o confession_n of_o sin_n be_v require_v of_o person_n before_o baptism_n be_v administer_v unto_o they_o for_o such_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o john_n when_o he_o be_v to_o prepare_v a_o people_n for_o the_o lord_n although_o the_o people_n which_o he_o baptize_v be_v the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n and_o so_o in_o the_o old_a covenant_n yet_o they_o come_v to_o john_n and_o confess_v their_o sin_n and_o be_v baptize_v and_o it_o be_v call_v the_o baptism_n of_o repentance_n and_o when_o they_o will_v have_v be_v baptize_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o be_v abraham_n seed_n and_o child_n of_o the_o covenant_n john_n do_v reprove_v they_o say_v o_o generation_n of_o viper_n who_o have_v forewarn_v you_o to_o flee_v from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n worthy_a of_o amendment_n of_o life_n and_o do_v not_o begin_v to_o say_v you_o have_v abraham_n to_o your_o father_n for_o god_n be_v able_a of_o these_o stone_n to_o raise_v up_o child_n unto_o abraham_n and_o now_o be_v the_o axe_n lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o tree_n and_o every_o tree_n which_o bring_v not_o forth_o good_a fruit_n be_v hew_v down_o etc._n etc._n peruse_v this_o diligent_o and_o you_o may_v see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o admission_n unto_o baptism_n without_o repentance_n and_o it_o be_v the_o very_a same_o doctrine_n that_o peter_n teach_v act_v 2.38_o repent_v and_o be_v baptize_v every_o one_o of_o you_o for_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o you_o shall_v receive_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n hence_o you_o see_v there_o be_v repentance_n require_v of_o ever_o one_o that_o be_v baptise_a and_o this_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o the_o old_a catechism_n and_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n and_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o old_a godfather_n and_o godmother_n as_o we_o be_v wont_a to_o call_v they_o do_v confess_v our_o sin_n for_o we_o it_o be_v a_o wicked_a deceive_a invention_n of_o pope_n ignatius_n whereby_o thousand_o of_o poor_a soul_n be_v deceive_v the_o pope_n invent_v it_o and_o the_o priest_n ready_o receive_v it_o and_o it_o be_v a_o custom_n the_o people_n love_v to_o have_v it_o so_o the_o priest_n be_v to_o ask_v the_o child_n whether_o it_o will_v forsake_v the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o work_n and_o the_o godfather_n or_o surety_n be_v to_o answer_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o child_n as_o though_o the_o priest_n be_v a_o juglor_n and_o have_v juggle_v the_o man_n voice_n into_o the_o child_n say_v this_o be_v our_o or_o my_o desire_n and_o then_o ask_v if_o it_o will_v be_v baptise_a and_o the_o answer_n be_v return_v again_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o child_n that_o it_o be_v its_o desire_n when_o it_o be_v far_o from_o desire_v any_o such_o thing_n and_o so_o far_o be_v the_o surety_n themselves_o from_o forsake_v the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o work_n and_o from_o be_v believer_n that_o some_o be_v drunkard_n some_o swearer_n and_o some_o whore-monger_n and_o yet_o do_v dare_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o pope_n his_o clergy_n to_o tell_v god_n who_o be_v the_o searcher_n of_o all_o heart_n that_o they_o do_v believe_v and_o forsake_v the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o work_n and_o yet_o be_v lead_v captive_a by_o he_o at_o his_o will._n consider_v o_o you_o blind_a priest_n how_o you_o deceive_v the_o people_n and_o make_v they_o believe_v they_o do_v well_o and_o worship_v god_n when_o they_o tell_v lie_n in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o congregation_n and_o so_o do_v worship_v the_o devil_n do_v you_o ever_o read_v of_o such_o a_o practice_n in_o the_o primitive_a time_n no_o sure_o god_n soul_n abhor_v you_o but_o courteous_a reader_n hence_o thou_o may_v see_v that_o the_o

not_o a_o fit_a subject_n for_o baptism_n for_o baptism_n represent_v a_o death_n and_o burial_n of_o the_o old_a man_n and_o a_o rise_n to_o life_n in_o the_o new_a man_n which_o can_v be_v represent_v by_o a_o infant_n be_v sprinkle_v but_o by_o a_o believer_n be_v baptize_v so_o then_o for_o as_o much_o as_o baptism_n be_v a_o visible_a demonstration_n of_o a_o covenant_n make_v between_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n wherein_o the_o soul_n promise_v to_o put_v on_o christ_n and_o walk_v in_o he_o and_o god_n promise_v to_o give_v he_o his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o assist_v he_o in_o his_o so_o walk_v which_o show_v that_o the_o person_n thus_o covenant_v in_o baptism_n must_v be_v a_o believer_n and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o 10._o and_o last_o reason_n that_o at_o present_a i_o shall_v represent_v unto_o you_o to_o prove_v that_o believer_n be_v the_o only_a fit_a subject_n of_o baptism_n which_o be_v reas_n 10._o because_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v unprofitable_a for_o any_o to_o appear_v before_o god_n in_o any_o gospel_n ordinance_n for_o without_o faith_n they_o can_v please_v he_o in_o their_o so_o appear_v before_o he_o heb._n 11.6_o for_o he_o that_o come_v so_o to_o god_n must_v believe_v that_o he_o be_v a_o rewarder_n of_o all_o they_o that_o diligent_o seek_v he_o hence_o the_o three_o thousand_o believe_a and_o glad_o receive_v the_o word_n be_v baptize_v the_o samaritan_n believe_v also_o be_v baptize_v simon_n believe_v be_v baptize_v act._n 8._o and_o the_o eunuch_n also_o with_o the_o jailor_n household_n and_o without_o faith_n or_o profession_n of_o faith_n at_o the_o least_o none_o be_v admit_v to_o baptism_n although_o that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o first_o covenant_n be_v abraham_n seed_n to_o who_o be_v the_o promise_n yet_o they_o come_v not_o to_o john_n baptism_n without_o confession_n of_o sin_n and_o be_v instruct_v in_o the_o messiah_n which_o be_v to_o come_v as_o you_o may_v read_v mat._n 3._o and_o luk._n 3._o at_o large_a and_o thus_o of_o old_a be_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o prepare_v a_o temple_n for_o the_o lord_n of_o sanctify_a stone_n build_v up_o a_o spiritual_a house_n a_o peculiar_a people_n to_o offer_v spiritual_a sacrifice_n to_o god_n 1_o pet._n 1.9_o which_o clear_o prove_v that_o if_o the_o build_n of_o god_n in_o gospel-time_n be_v a_o build_n through_o the_o spirit_n eph._n 2.19.12_o then_o spiritual_a believe_v man_n and_o woman_n be_v the_o person_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v the_o subject_n baptize_v and_o be_v such_o fit_a matter_n and_o so_o fit_o join_v together_o grow_v to_o be_v a_o holy_a temple_n for_o the_o lord_n for_o as_o the_o stone_n that_o solomon_n temple_n be_v build_v of_o be_v hew_v in_o hieroms_n country_n

for_o a_o example_n do_v all_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o primitive_a pattern_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o as_o many_o as_o walk_v according_a to_o that_o rule_n peace_n shall_v be_v

infant_n as_o such_o be_v not_o fit_a subject_n of_o baptism_n in_o the_o discourse_n of_o which_o i_o shall_v answer_v my_o antagonist_n in_o his_o allege_v text_n of_o scripture_n with_o several_a more_o objection_n of_o that_o nature_n which_o be_v not_o allege_v in_o his_o book_n and_o now_o brief_o to_o the_o reason_n which_o show_v that_o infant_n be_v not_o fit_a subject_n for_o to_o be_v baptise_a and_o so_o to_o the_o first_o reason_n which_o be_v reas_n 1._o because_o god_n have_v no_o where_n in_o scripture_n appoint_v infant_n to_o be_v baptise_a either_o by_o precept_n or_o by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o apostle_n whole_a step_n we_o be_v to_o follow_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o unlawful_a practice_n for_o whosoever_o add_v to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n will_v add_v the_o plague_n which_o be_v write_v and_o the_o prophet_n that_o shall_v presume_v to_o speak_v a_o word_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o he_o have_v not_o command_v the_o

as_o for_o god_n way_n as_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n it_o be_v very_o plain_a and_o perfect_a as_o witness_v that_o ordinance_n of_o circumcision_n there_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o circumcision_n and_o the_o person_n which_o be_v to_o be_v circumcise_a plain_o discover_v as_o the_o foreskin_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n and_o the_o time_n when_o even_o at_o eight_o day_n old_a nay_o his_o servant_n and_o slave_n be_v to_o be_v circumcise_a and_o in_o a_o word_n no_o uncircumcised_a person_n must_v abide_v in_o that_o land_n nor_o be_v account_v of_o abraham_n family_n which_o show_v that_o in_o a_o spiritual_a sense_n none_o can_v be_v account_v abraham_n seed_n but_o such_o as_o be_v circumcise_a in_o heart_n viz._n those_o that_o have_v the_o vayl_n of_o ignorance_n and_o unbelief_n take_v away_o from_o off_o their_o heart_n which_o cause_v the_o apostle_n to_o say_v that_o abraham_n believe_v god_n and_o it_o be_v account_v unto_o he_o for_o righteousness_n know_v you_o therefore_o say_v he_o that_o they_o which_o be_v of_o faith_n the_o same_o be_v the_o child_n of_o abraham_n so_o than_o infant_n not_o have_v the_o vail_n of_o ignorance_n and_o unbelief_n take_v from_o off_o their_o heart_n can_v be_v account_v of_o abraham_n family_n for_o he_o receive_v circumcision_n as_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o that_o faith_n which_o he_o receive_v before_o circumcision_n that_o he_o may_v be_v the_o father_n of_o all_o they_o which_o do_v believe_v gal._n 3.7_o rom._n 4.11_o so_o then_o circumcision_n be_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o fatherhood_n of_o the_o faithful_a unto_o abraham_n therefore_o the_o faithful_a only_o be_v abraham_n seed_n which_o can_v be_v infant_n because_o they_o have_v not_o faith_n and_o that_o they_o have_v not_o faith_n be_v clear_a because_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o faith_n and_o that_o one_o faith_n be_v wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n by_o hear_v the_o

pass_v to_o the_o next_o reason_n which_o be_v abraham_n receive_v it_o as_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n but_o none_o of_o his_o seed_n do_v receive_v it_o as_o a_o seal_n neither_o can_v do_v because_o they_o can_v not_o have_v the_o fatherhood_n of_o the_o faithful_a seal_v up_o unto_o they_o it_o be_v only_a abraham_n prerogative_n neither_o be_v it_o ever_o call_v a_o seal_n to_o any_o of_o abraham_n seed_n and_o much_o more_o i_o may_v say_v but_o i_o pass_v brief_o to_o the_o second_o reason_n to_o prove_v child_n not_o fit_a subject_n to_o be_v baptise_a which_o be_v reas_n 2._o because_o all_o that_o be_v baptise_a may_v and_o aught_o to_o receive_v the_o lord_n supper_n unless_o they_o be_v scandalous_a in_o their_o conversation_n after_o baptism_n and_o that_o hinder_v they_o but_o child_n may_v not_o receive_v the_o lord_n supper_n ergo_fw-la reas_n 3._o three_o because_o child_n be_v not_o in_o gospel-covenant_n because_o all_o that_o be_v in_o gospel-covenant_n need_v not_o to_o be_v teach_v to_o know_v the_o lord_n for_o they_o all_o know_v he_o from_o the_o great_a to_o the_o least_o but_o child_n of_o seven_o or_o eight_o day_n

he_o appear_v to_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n even_o a_o drunkard_n or_o a_o fornicator_n or_o the_o like_a now_o will_v you_o admit_v of_o that_o man_n although_o former_o he_o have_v communion_n with_o

heed_n say_v he_o that_o no_o man_n deceive_v you_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o many_o shall_v come_v in_o my_o name_n and_o say_v i_o be_o christ_n and_o deceive_v many_o the_o word_n take_v heed_n that_o no_o man_n deceive_v you_o be_v not_o only_o to_o be_v understand_v the_o disciple_n in_o that_o age_n but_o in_o all_o age_n successive_o second_o observe_v the_o word_n say_v i_o be_o christ_n which_o relate_v to_o a_o person_n and_o not_o to_o a_o fabric_n or_o a_o model_n more_o especial_o because_o we_o know_v that_o christ_n be_v to_o come_v as_o a_o single_a person_n as_o a_o glorify_a man_n and_o therefore_o such_o as_o will_v feign_v he_o so_o as_o to_o make_v person_n believe_v that_o they_o be_v christ_n must_v come_v as_o a_o single_a person_n although_o with_o attendance_n as_o he_o be_v to_o come_v and_o second_o because_o we_o know_v that_o it_o have_v be_v the_o practice_n of_o some_o already_o who_o have_v give_v out_o of_o themselves_o that_o they_o be_v some_o great_a one_o even_o the_o lord_n or_o he_o that_o be_v to_o be_v king_n of_o the_o jew_n as_o benchocab_n and_o hackit_n as_o have_v be_v already_o mention_v and_o more_o that_o may_v be_v mention_v beside_o in_o our_o day_n he_o that_o profess_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o great_a one_o or_o king_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o draw_v disciple_n after_o he_o who_o live_v in_o a_o tent_n near_o rochester_n know_v to_o be_v truth_n together_o with_o the_o late_a profess_a christ_n near_o bristol_n who_o be_v adore_v in_o the_o street_n as_o be_v creditable_o speak_v of_o such_o as_o hear_v it_o with_o tho_o name_n hosanna_n bless_a be_v he_o that_o come_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n three_o because_o that_o the_o scripture_n show_v that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v a_o person_n and_o not_o a_o fabric_n or_o model_n or_o form_n of_o worship_n false_a in_o its_o constitution_n as_o first_o from_o dan_n 8.23_o 24_o 25._o compare_v with_o 2_o thes_n 2.3_o 4_o 5_o 6_o 7_o 8_o 9_o

deny_v both_o the_o father_n and_o son_n and_o will_v not_o admit_v that_o any_o shall_v be_v worship_v as_o god_n but_o himself_o show_v himself_o that_o he_o be_v god_n and_o to_o bring_v his_o design_n about_o he_o shall_v cause_v craft_n to_o prosper_v in_o his_o hand_n say_v the_o prophet_n daniel_n which_o be_v a_o person_n come_v with_o sign_n and_o lie_a wonder_n 2_o thes_n 2.3_o 4_o 5_o 6._o compare_v with_o revel_n 13.18_o 19_o 20_o 31._o agree_v with_o the_o text_n itself_o mat._n 24.24_o which_o say_v for_o there_o shall_v arise_v false_a christ_n and_o false_a prophet_n not_o false_a constitute_v church_n and_o shall_v show_v great_a sign_n and_o wonder_n etc._n etc._n from_o whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o antichrist_n or_o false_a christ_n be_v a_o person_n or_o person_n and_o not_o a_o false_a worship_n four_o and_o last_o it_o can_v be_v understand_v a_o form_n of_o worship_n or_o a_o people_n set_v down_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o a_o form_n because_o the_o text_n say_v if_o they_o say_v lo_o here_o be_v christ_n or_o there_o believe_v it_o not_o imply_v thus_o much_o that_o christ_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v here_o nor_o there_o that_o be_v no_o where_o in_o any_o form_n or_o worship_n in_o no_o church_n whatsoever_o and_o if_o this_o be_v true_a then_o to_o be_v sure_a christ_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o mr._n hendens_fw-la form_n for_o mr._n henden_fw-ge have_v a_o form_n which_o he_o pretend_v he_o worship_v god_n in_o to_o wit_n a_o form_n of_o meet_v together_o a_o form_n of_o preach_v of_o pray_v of_o praise_v and_o a_o form_n of_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n if_o he_o be_v true_a to_o his_o principle_n which_o be_v either_o a_o form_n of_o worship_n or_o a_o lump_n of_o confusion_n for_o what_o be_v without_o form_n in_o point_n of_o visible_a worship_n be_v confusion_n and_o what_o if_o mr._n hendens_n judgement_n be_v true_a that_o be_v to_o say_v if_o the_o church_n be_v in_o the_o desert_n or_o wilderness_n have_v christ_n leave_v his_o church_n there_o alone_o without_o his_o spiritual_a presence_n sure_o no_o he_o have_v say_v and_o be_v faithful_a that_o he_o will_v never_o leave_v and_o forsake_v his_o church_n so_o that_o wheresoever_o there_o be_v but_o two_o or_o three_o gather_v together_o in_o his_o name_n he_o will_v be_v present_a with_o they_o and_o be_v he_o not_o with_o the_o church_n in_o the_o wilderness_n act_n 7.38_o yea_o sure_o it_o be_v not_o rational_o think_v that_o christ_n will_v not_o be_v find_v in_o his_o own_o worship_n by_o such_o as_o worship_v he_o in_o truth_n and_o righteousness_n of_o heart_n so_o than_o the_o text_n can_v be_v interpret_v as_o mr._n henden_fw-ge interpret_v it_o because_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v find_v here_o and_o there_o and_o indeed_o every_o where_n in_o his_o spiritual_a presence_n where_o two_o or_o three_o meet_v together_o in_o his_o name_n if_o it_o be_v in_o the_o desert_n or_o wilderness_n he_o

my_o opinion_n brief_o upon_o the_o text_n which_o be_v in_o this_o text_n i_o observe_v many_o thing_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v speak_v to_o if_o i_o have_v time_n because_o it_o hold_v correspondency_n with_o daniel_n joel_n zechariah_n and_o the_o revelation_n but_o i_o shall_v only_o meddle_v with_o the_o point_n in_o controversy_n namely_o first_o what_o may_v be_v understand_v by_o the_o false_a christ_n and_o false_a prophet_n and_o of_o their_o sign_n and_o wonder_n second_o of_o the_o desert_n or_o secret_a chamber_n three_o of_o the_o come_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n like_o lightning_n four_o and_o last_o of_o the_o carcase_n and_o the_o eagle_n be_v gather_v unto_o it_o and_o these_o in_o order_n brief_o and_o first_o to_o the_o first_o which_o be_v the_o false_a christ_n and_o false_a prophet_n i_o understand_v to_o be_v person_n who_o will_v come_v before_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n in_o the_o cloud_n in_o power_n &_o great_a glory_n &_o will_v affirm_v that_o they_o be_v the_o christ_n which_o be_v to_o come_v the_o which_o some_o have_v do_v already_o but_o that_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v only_o the_o work_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n which_o begin_v in_o the_o apostle_n day_n as_o st._n paul_n and_o st._n john_n declare_v 2_o thes_n 2.7_o 8._o 1_o john_n 2.18_o 19_o chap._n 4.3_o and_o that_o the_o height_n of_o that_o iniquity_n center_v in_o that_o beast_n and_o false_a prophet_n speak_v of_o in_o revel_n 13.4_o 5_o to_o the_o sixteenth_o

the_o which_o be_v practise_v by_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o leave_v write_v for_o we_o to_o follow_v their_o example_n and_o therefore_o want_v no_o new_a sign_n or_o miracle_n to_o confirm_v it_o it_o be_v already_o confirm_v and_o that_o they_o only_o want_v new_a sign_n and_o miracle_n for_o confirmation_n that_o walk_v in_o new_a way_n and_o ordinance_n which_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o be_v confirm_v but_o the_o way_n and_o ordinance_n which_o we_o walk_v in_o and_o contend_v for_o be_v the_o same_o which_o have_v be_v already_o confirm_v as_o none_o can_v

be_v all_z the_o apostle_n be_v dead_a at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o first_o or_o beginning_n of_o the_o second_o century_n &_o in_o a_o little_a time_n after_o evangilist_n and_o prophet_n you_o may_v from_o this_o place_n as_o well_o argue_v the_o constant_a abide_n of_o apostle_n prophet_n and_o evangelist_n as_o of_o pastor_n and_o teacher_n see_v the_o spirit_n here_o speak_v of_o a_o

say_v all_o the_o apostle_n be_v dead_a at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o first_o or_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o second_o century_n it_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a matter_n for_o you_o to_o prove_v it_o unless_o by_o the_o word_n all_o you_o mean_v all_z the_o twelve_o apostle_n and_o if_o so_o its_o very_a like_o that_o all_o they_o may_v be_v dead_a by_o that_o time_n but_o that_o either_o the_o office_n

of_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o word_n of_o john_n which_o seem_o contradict_v each_o other_o but_o be_v understand_v according_o as_o they_o be_v speak_v they_o agree_v together_o so_o then_o still_o it_o remain_v that_o elias_n be_v to_o come_v before_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v elias_n real_o so_o understand_v i_o give_v these_o reason_n which_o before_o have_v be_v mention_v in_o general_n in_o a_o short_a and_o brief_a method_n first_o john_n the_o baptist_n be_v not_o the_o real_a elias_n as_o i_o think_v all_o will_v confess_v for_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o zacharias_n and_o zacharias_n have_v a_o commandment_n from_o the_o lord_n to_o call_v the_o name_n of_o his_o son_n not_o elias_n but_o john_n luke_n 1.13_o but_o elias_n be_v to_o come_v as_o have_v be_v prove_v before_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n second_o john_n the_o baptist_n be_v not_o the_o forerunner_n simple_o so_o consider_v of_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o that_o day_n that_o john_n be_v a_o forerunner_n of_o be_v the_o day_n of_o christ_n suffering_n and_o not_o the_o day_n of_o dread_n unto_o his_o enemy_n so_o as_o it_o will_v be_v in_o that_o day_n that_o the_o chief_a captain_n and_o great_a and_o mighty_a man_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v call_v to_o the_o mountain_n to_o fall_v upon_o they_o and_o hide_v they_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lamb_n for_o the_o great_a day_n of_o his_o wrath_n be_v come_v say_v they_o and_o who_o can_v stand_v but_o elias_n be_v to_o be_v the_o forerunner_n of_o the_o great_a and_o dreadful_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n three_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n shall_v be_v turn_v unto_o the_o child_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o child_n to_o their_o father_n in_o that_o day_n which_o yet_o be_v at_o a_o distance_n for_o christ_n sake_n so_o that_o the_o parent_n hate_v their_o child_n and_o child_n shall_v betray_v their_o parent_n to_o death_n for_o christ_n sake_n although_o it_o be_v not_o deny_v that_o john_n in_o a_o measure_n be_v a_o type_n of_o elias_n in_o that_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o the_o angel_n to_o zacharias_n luke_n 1.13_o 18._o for_o all_o man_n do_v account_n john_n a_o prophet_n and_o he_o prepare_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n all_o judah_n and_o jerusalem_n come_v out_o to_o he_o to_o be_v baptise_a of_o he_o in_o jordan_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o afterward_o be_v at_o great_a variance_n about_o christ_n some_o say_n that_o he_o be_v a_o good_a man_n and_o other_o saying_n nay_o he_o have_v a_o devil_n and_o be_v mad_a and_o after_o that_o lay_v violent_a hand_n on_o he_o and_o crucify_v he_o and_o the_o distance_n be_v so_o great_a that_o many_o family_n even_o parent_n and_o their_o child_n have_v be_v and_o be_v at_o a_o distance_n about_o he_o and_o so_o will_v be_v until_o that_o day_n of_o the_o come_n of_o elias_n and_o then_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n shall_v thorough_o be_v turn_v unto_o their_o child_n and_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o child_n unto_o their_o father_n and_o envy_n shall_v depart_v from_o ephraim_n as_o before_o say_v which_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o four_o &_o last_o reason_n to_o prove_v elias_n one_o of_o the_o two_o witness_n which_o be_v four_o because_o the_o same_o judgement_n which_o be_v bring_v upon_o the_o earth_n by_o elias_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o earth_n shall_v be_v again_o bring_v upon_o the_o earth_n by_o the_o two_o prophet_n or_o witness_n revel_v 11.6_o compare_v with_o james_n 5.17_o 1_o king_n 17.1_o which_o bespeak_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o though_o elijah_n shall_v be_v one_o of_o those_o two_o witness_n if_o we_o also_o consider_v that_o these_o witness_n must_v be_v slay_v and_o therefore_o must_v be_v such_o as_o never_o yet_o have_v taste_v of_o death_n because_o it_o can_v be_v rational_o imagine_v that_o those_o prophet_n which_o be_v so_o to_o die_v be_v any_o of_o the_o prophet_n which_o be_v dead_a and_o shall_v be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o then_o be_v slay_v again_o i_o speak_v this_o because_o some_o have_v suppose_v moses_n to_o be_v one_o of_o these_o two_o prophet_n which_o in_o reason_n can_v be_v so_o neither_o do_v i_o find_v any_o scripture_n warrant_v any_o such_o thing_n neither_o do_v i_o find_v any_o where_n in_o my_o most_o serious_a search_n of_o the_o scripture_n of_o any_o extraordinary_a prophet_n namely_o such_o prophet_n as_o be_v mention_v in_o revel_v 11._o to_o be_v bear_v in_o the_o last_o day_n when_o this_o pprophecy_n be_v to_o be_v accomplish_v but_o elijah_n never_o yet_o be_v slay_v but_o be_v catch_v up_o to_o heaven_n in_o a_o whirlwind_n and_o so_o at_o present_a i_o shall_v leave_v this_o and_o pass_v to_o the_o next_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o show_v my_o opinion_n who_o it_o be_v that_o be_v the_o other_o prophet_n because_o the_o text_n say_v that_o there_o be_v to_o be_v two_o prophet_n or_o two_o witness_n which_o be_v to_o prophesy_v in_o sackcloth_n and_o as_o to_o the_o other_o prophet_n i_o shall_v be_v very_o brief_a because_o i_o do_v not_o find_v any_o such_o objection_n as_o i_o meet_v with_o against_o the_o fore_n mention_v prophet_n namely_o against_o elias_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v brief_o show_v my_o opinion_n and_o leave_v it_o second_o as_o for_o the_o other_o prophet_n which_o be_v to_o be_v a_o fellow_n companion_n with_o elias_n i_o understand_v to_o be_v john_n that_o holy_a apostle_n the_o belove_a disciple_n of_o jesus_n which_o lean_v upon_o his_o breast_n at_o supper_n for_o as_o elias_n be_v a_o man_n high_o in_o the_o love_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n although_o hate_v by_o man_n and_o persecute_v and_o banish_v even_o so_o be_v john_n dear_o belove_v of_o god_n although_o hate_v and_o banish_v from_o man_n yet_o the_o lord_n jesus_n deal_v with_o he_o by_o manifest_v of_o himself_o to_o he_o as_o god_n do_v to_o elijah_n when_o he_o flee_v from_o the_o face_n of_o ahab_n and_o jessibel_n 1_o king_n 17._o and_o chap._n 18._o but_o be_v in_o have_v i_o pass_v many_o thing_n which_o otherwise_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v speak_v by_o way_n of_o parallel_n and_o come_v to_o show_v the_o reason_n why_o i_o understand_v john_n to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o two_o witness_n speak_v of_o in_o revelation_n the_o 11._o which_o be_v these_o first_o because_o when_o john_n write_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v thirty_o year_n after_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v then_o report_v among_o the_o disciple_n that_o john_n be_v not_o to_o die_v john_n 21.23_o and_o yet_o at_o that_o time_n they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o teach_v they_o but_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v object_v and_o say_v that_o john_n say_v not_o that_o christ_n say_v he_o shall_v not_o die_v but_o what_o if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o fellow_n thou_o i_o signify_v peter_n death_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v true_a

that_o christ_n do_v not_o say_v in_o so_o many_o word_n that_o john_n shall_v not_o die_v for_o if_o he_o have_v it_o may_v have_v beget_v some_o dislike_n and_o murmur_v among_o his_o disciple_n but_o he_o speak_v so_o plain_a that_o his_o disciple_n that_o have_v the_o holy_a spirit_n do_v so_o understand_v he_o and_z john_n himself_o who_o write_v these_o thing_n do_v not_o contradict_v their_o opinion_n but_o only_o say_v over_o the_o word_n that_o christ_n have_v say_v which_o be_v but_o if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o and_o indeed_o their_o be_v great_a reason_n that_o john_n who_o write_v these_o thing_n shall_v be_v very_o spare_v in_o the_o deliver_n of_o it_o see_v christ_n be_v spare_v and_o because_o the_o matter_n concern_v himself_o that_o he_o may_v not_o gain_v any_o dislike_n or_o hatred_n from_o any_o of_o the_o disciple_n because_o of_o that_o thing_n and_o as_o touch_v john_n death_n i_o say_v it_o can_v be_v prove_v that_o he_o do_v ever_o die_v neither_o do_v i_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v till_o i_o see_v better_a reason_n than_o i_o yet_o see_v to_o prove_v it_o and_o if_o it_o be_v a_o error_n it_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n then_o what_o be_v receive_v and_o believe_v of_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o day_n and_o they_o not_o where_o reprove_v for_o so_o believe_v but_o because_o i_o be_o a_o speak_n of_o john_n death_n i_o shall_v show_v you_o the_o opinion_n of_o some_o or_o what_o they_o have_v write_v as_o touch_v his_o death_n although_o i_o will_v not_o be_v understand_v to_o believe_v all_o what_o be_v write_v concern_v he_o i_o say_v allege_v it_o out_o of_o tertullian_n that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o nero_n though_o other_o say_v in_o the_o reign_n of_o domitian_n he_o be_v throw_v at_o rome_n into_o a_o tun_n of_o boil_a oil_n and_o thereby_o he_o take_v no_o harm_n but_o come_v forth_o after_o this_o trial_n pure_a than_o he_o go_v in_o and_o so_o say_v abdias_n augustine_n call_v he_o a_o martyr_n by_o will_n and_o that_o which_o he_o write_v of_o his_o end_n be_v strange_a of_o all_o which_o be_v that_o john_n at_o ephesus_n cause_v his_o grave_n to_o be_v make_v and_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o divers_a go_v in_o alive_a and_o be_v no_o soon_o in_o but_o there_o seem_v he_o be_v dead_a they_o cover_v he_o which_o kind_n of_o rest_n say_v he_o be_v rather_o to_o be_v term_v a_o sleep_n than_o death_n for_o that_o the_o earth_n of_o the_o grave_n bubble_v or_o boil_v up_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o a_o well_o by_o reason_n of_o john_n rest_v therein_o and_o breathe_v a_o sign_n of_o his_o slumber_v therein_o as_o you_o may_v see_v august_n in_o john_n tract_n 124._o &_o also_o repeat_v by_o the_o translator_n in_o his_o discourse_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o seventy_o disciple_n in_o eusebius_n 533_o &_o eusebius_n pamphilius_n himself_n say_v that_o he_o die_v at_o ephesus_n eusebius_n lib._n 3._o cap._n 28._o and_o indeed_o there_o be_v division_n among_o ancient_a writer_n as_o touch_v john_n but_o i_o shall_v leave_v these_o thing_n and_o come_v to_o the_o second_o reason_n which_o be_v second_o because_o the_o angel_n tell_v john_n that_o he_o must_v prophesy_v again_o not_o preach_v again_o before_o many_o people_n and_o nation_n and_o tongue_n and_o king_n which_o relate_v to_o the_o time_n of_o

10.11_o three_o john_n say_v there_o be_v give_v to_o i_o a_o reed_n like_o unto_o a_o rod_n and_o the_o angel_n stand_v say_v rise_v and_o measure_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n and_o the_o altar_n and_o they_o that_o worship_n therein_o but_o the_o court_n without_o the_o temple_n leave_v out_o and_o measure_v it_o not_o for_o it_o be_v give_v unto_o the_o gentile_n and_o the_o holy_a city_n shall_v they_o tread_v under_o foot_n forty_o and_o two_o month_n and_o i_o will_v give_v power_n unto_o my_o two_o witness_n and_o they_o shall_v prophesy_v a_o thousand_o two_o hundred_o and_o threescore_o day_n clothe_v in_o sackcloth_n revel_v 11.1_o 2_o 3._o from_o whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o john_n have_v not_o only_o as_o it_o be_v a_o new_a gift_n of_o prophecy_n to_o be_v give_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o may_v prophesy_v again_o before_o nation_n tongue_n and_o king_n and_o the_o like_a but_o also_o he_o be_v the_o man_n that_o be_v to_o measure_n jerusalem_n at_o the_o time_n of_o its_o last_o building_n when_o the_o holy_a city_n be_v to_o be_v take_v by_o the_o gentile_n and_o tread_v under_o foot_n as_o i_o before_o have_v prove_v and_o he_o be_v the_o other_o prophet_n

and_o they_o demand_v of_o he_o why_o he_o then_o baptise_a to_o prepare_v a_o people_n for_o the_o lord_n say_v why_o baptise_v thou_o then_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o that_o christ_n nor_o elias_n
