choose_v life_n deut._n 30.15_o 19_o one_o can_v imagine_v how_o these_o people_n shall_v be_v leave_v to_o choose_v what_o they_o will_v do_v but_o that_o their_o engagement_n must_v have_v this_o construction_n as_o ever_o we_o expect_v to_o escape_v the_o curse_n or_o reap_v the_o blessing_n we_o will_v do_v it_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o that_o which_o they_o can_v and_o do_v be_v the_o main_a thing_n to_o be_v do_v and_o they_o be_v call_v to_o it_o it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o to_o leave_v undo_v so_o much_o because_o more_o be_v also_o require_v unto_o which_o the_o most_o of_o they_o can_v engage_v only_o under_o god_n term_n leave_v themselves_o to_o mercy_n and_o which_o according_o they_o neither_o absolute_o intend_v nor_o did._n i_o will_v add_v so_o long_o as_o a_o jew_n cleave_v to_o god_n in_o opposition_n to_o idol_n and_o live_v in_o general_a as_o other_o jew_n here_o be_v the_o essential_o of_o that_o covenant_n and_o the_o breach_n of_o other_o precept_n be_v fail_v in_o the_o integral_n but_o the_o essence_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o life_n consist_v in_o integrity_n integrity_n measure_v by_o grace_n accept_v of_o what_o be_v do_v and_o forgive_a what_o be_v undo_v through_o the_o righteousness_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o none_o but_o the_o regenerate_v have_v must_v be_v confess_v in_o the_o four_o place_n i_o must_v say_v upon_o this_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o set_v up_o a_o kingdom_n over_o this_o people_n and_o as_o a_o king_n to_o give_v they_o his_o statute_n and_o judgement_n and_o they_o as_o his_o subject_n declare_v they_o will_v obey_v they_o in_o the_o division_n of_o the_o nation_n he_o set_v a_o ruler_n over_o they_o but_o israel_n be_v the_o lord_n portion_n say_v ecclesiasticus_fw-la i_o must_v take_v leave_n to_o ask_v how_o these_o word_n all_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v we_o will_v do_v can_v prove_v that_o no_o person_n therefore_o that_o say_v not_o the_o same_o word_n may_v be_v baptise_a or_o that_o because_o the_o israelite_n say_v so_o therefore_o the_o baptise_a must_v say_v abrenuncio_fw-la and_o spond●o_n especial_o when_o they_o be_v not_o prescribe_v by_o god_n but_o word_n of_o their_o own_o and_o if_o they_o have_v speak_v they_o examine_o and_o with_o more_o caution_n and_o say_v but_o as_o we_o do_v in_o the_o common-prayer_n lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o and_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v all_o these_o thy_o law_n i_o be_o persuade_v it_o have_v be_v better_a it_o be_v manifest_a that_o every_o jew_n be_v to_o circumcise_v his_o child_n and_o joshua_n all_o the_o congregation_n in_o the_o wilderness_n but_o i_o find_v not_o that_o every_o father_n or_o every_o one_o there_o be_v to_o make_v such_o a_o profession_n a_o profession_n in_o such_o large_a word_n in_o the_o do_v i_o find_v not_o such_o a_o profession_n neither_o require_v of_o any_o of_o the_o baptise_a in_o the_o new_a testament_n the_o eunuch_n say_v he_o believe_v christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o those_o that_o come_v to_o john_n baptism_n confess_v their_o sin_n both_o which_o i_o have_v provide_v against_o and_o that_o be_v all_o i_o find_v there_o nay_o though_o israel_n indeed_o use_v these_o word_n when_o god_n give_v the_o law_n at_o first_o i_o find_v not_o in_o deut._n 29._o when_o moses_n call_v they_o to_o covenant_n again_o or_o to_o another_o covenant_n v._n 1._o about_o forty_o year_n after_o that_o v._n 5._o that_o they_o use_v the_o same_o word_n this_o be_v certain_a man_z woman_n and_o child_n enter_v

please_v to_o see_v how_o in_o the_o three_o question_n will_v it_o thou_o obedient_o keep_v god_n holy_a will_n when_o the_o child_n who_o answer_v by_o his_o surety_n and_o be_v innocent_a be_v

endeavour_v so_o to_o do_v god_n be_v my_o helper_n and_o when_o the_o church_n herself_o do_v vary_v the_o response_n if_o the_o baptise_a who_o be_v yet_o more_o tender_a be_v fearful_a lest_o he_o be_v defective_a in_o that_o endeavour_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o say_v only_o i_o do_v acknowledge_v this_o renunciation_n of_o flesh_n world_n and_o devil_n i_o own_o this_o walk_n in_o god_n commandment_n all_o the_o day_n of_o my_o life_n to_o be_v my_o duty_n pray_v god_n give_v i_o his_o grace_n to_o do_v it_o i_o desire_v i_o may_v i_o can_v say_v no_o more_o i_o will_v be_v very_o willing_a to_o know_v whether_o such_o a_o man_n may_v not_o be_v baptise_a for_o my_o part_n i_o shall_v judge_v such_o a_o one_o sitter_n to_o be_v receive_v than_o the_o most_o of_o confident_a believer_n that_o make_v no_o bone_n at_o all_o of_o the_o matter_n i_o will_v have_v no_o man_n here_o so_o high_a for_o the_o church_n as_o not_o to_o consider_v the_o foundation_n i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o every_o man_n who_o be_v circumcise_a become_v a_o debtor_n thereby_o to_o the_o whole_a law_n and_o every_o one_o that_o be_v baptise_a be_v a_o debtor_n to_o the_o practice_n of_o all_o christianity_n but_o i_o be_o apprehensive_a also_o that_o the_o unregenerate_a man_n can_v actual_o in_o word_n say_v i_o renounce_v the_o devil_n world_n and_o the_o elesh_n so_o as_o not_o to_o be_v lead_v by_o they_o when_o yet_o he_o may_v be_v oblige_v to_o it_o as_o well_o as_o the_o regenerate_v by_o covenant-engagement_n at_o least_o in_o the_o sign_n of_o it_o i_o be_o willing_a to_o have_v a_o man_n duty_n press_v on_o he_o in_o regard_n to_o the_o obligation_n as_o much_o as_o any_o but_o as_o for_o the_o profession_n he_o make_v in_o word_n i_o can_v but_o be_v tender_a of_o it_o for_o my_o life_n i_o be_o conscious_a how_o one_o excellent_a good_a man_n be_v still_o for_o to_o have_v some_o law_n establish_v in_o case_n at_o least_o of_o any_o accommodation_n that_o every_o man_n who_o offer_v his_o child_n to_o baptism_n or_o himself_o to_o the_o eucharist_n shall_v make_v his_o profession_n that_o he_o take_v god_n for_o his_o chief_a good_a christ_n for_o his_o lord_n and_o saviour_n the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o his_o sanctifier_n and_o unfeigned_o repent_v of_o all_o his_o sin_n he_o do_v resolve_v upon_o a_o sincere_a obedience_n through_o the_o course_n of_o his_o life_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v or_o the_o like_a word_n which_o i_o must_v confess_v be_v so_o grievous_a a_o thing_n to_o my_o mind_n in_o regard_n to_o that_o formality_n and_o authorize_v lie_v which_o the_o most_o shall_v be_v put_v upon_o and_o that_o scruple_n and_o perplexity_n which_o the_o best_a most_o serious_a and_o most_o tender_a shall_v be_v put_v to_o thereby_o that_o i_o can_v in_o my_o heart_n but_o rather_o be_v glad_a though_o simple_o i_o approve_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o the_o church_n have_v impose_v this_o profession_n upon_o the_o uncapable_a infant_n and_o the_o surety_n in_o their_o name_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n i_o know_v in_o the_o scripture_n for_o such_o strict_a injunction_n unless_o these_o word_n of_o the_o israelite_n word_n of_o their_o own_o not_o impose_v be_v any_o thing_n which_o have_v make_v i_o therefore_o speak_v thus_o much_o the_o more_o about_o it_o it_o be_v say_v for_o
