thus_o fit_v and_o faith_n be_v seal_v unto_o they_o in_o circumcision_n if_o any_o will_v deny_v it_o they_o must_v deny_v the_o text_n and_o that_o be_v impudence_n itself_o if_o so_o why_o not_o in_o baptism_n as_o well_o as_o circumcision_n for_o circumcision_n must_v have_v faith_n so_o must_v they_o in_o baptism_n 5_o there_o be_v more_o require_v of_o some_o person_n then_o there_o be_v of_o other_o in_o receve_v of_o the_o same_o sacrament_n in_o the_o allowance_n of_o god_n &_o according_a to_o right_a reason_n there_o be_v more_o require_v of_o man_n than_o there_o be_v of_o

for_o they_o do_v never_o force_v they_o but_o in_o child_n this_o be_v not_o require_v if_o the_o father_n have_v embrace_v the_o faith_n so_o as_o you_o may_v see_v these_o thing_n be_v plain_a wkich_a if_o they_o be_v observe_v it_o will_v make_v you_o cast_v away_o anabaptism_n the_o three_o scripture_n be_v in_o coloss_n 2.11_o 12._o if_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o

be_v alike_o at_o the_o first_o now_o they_o be_v out_o of_o date_n now_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v use_v to_o this_o purpose_n be_v all_o these_o place_n of_o scripture_n 1_o cor_fw-la 7.19_o if_o

be_v not_o circumcise_v now_o it_o be_v out_o of_o date_n it_o can_v be_v take_v the_o apostle_n for_o bad_a circumcision_n when_o it_o be_v in_o date_n for_o than_o he_o have_v speak_v against_o the_o command_n of_o god_n gen._n 17._o he_o command_v they_o to_o be_v circumcise_v so_o gal._n 6.15_o for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n neither_o circumcision_n etc._n etc._n avail_v any_o thing_n but_o

up_o now_o be_v to_o set_v up_o that_o which_o god_n have_v destroy_v so_o that_o now_o nothing_o avail_v but_o faith_n and_o a_o new_a creature_n and_o gal_n 5.4_o he_o be_v fall_v from_o grace_n but_o now_o he_o do_v not_o attend_v the_o first_o institution_n if_o he_o do_v he_o nullify_v the_o nature_n of_o christ_n because_o when_o christ_n be_v come_v it_o be_v to_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n this_o be_v a_o heinous_a thing_n christ_n shall_v do_v he_o no_o good_a christ_n will_v not_o save_v he_o in_o the_o last_o place_n he_o speak_v this_o to_o false_a apostle_n that_o will_v have_v man_n partly_o save_v by_o christ_n and_o partly_o by_o work_n and_o so_o they_o nullify_v christ_n and_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n for_o he_o must_v have_v all_o or_o none_o you_o can_v join_v work_n and_o grace_n together_o objection_n 2._o from_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o word_n coloss_n 2.17_o which_o be_v but_o a_o shadow_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o the_o

with_o we_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n they_o be_v of_o another_o nature_n the_o spiritual_a work_n of_o the_o soul_n for_o answer_v the_o sacrament_n be_v apprehend_v in_o a_o double_a sense_n as_o include_v or_o as_o separate_v from_o the_o thing_n signify_v but_o the_o apostle_n look_v at_o they_o as_o carnal_a now_o as_o heb_fw-mi 7.18_o 19_o he_o say_v the_o law_n be_v weak_a and_o make_v nothing_o perfect_a but_o the_o bring_n in_o of_o a_o better_a hope_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v christ_n he_o accompl●sheth_v all_o and_o bring_v in_o a_o better_a hope_n of_o the_o pardon_n of_o

the_o case_n be_v clear_a 3_o conclusion_n the_o spiritual_a efficacy_n of_o the_o sacrament_n in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n proceed_v not_o from_o themselves_o immediate_o use_v in_o the_o work_n of_o any_o good_a but_o as_o they_o be_v use_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o consideration_n whereof_o will_v help_v in_o the_o main_a point_n to_o show_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o sacrament_n for_o it_o be_v a_o great_a secret_a and_o the_o want_n of_o the_o knowledge_n hereof_o be_v the_o cause_n person_n get_v so_o little_a good_a by_o the_o sacrament_n this_o proposition_n have_v two_o part_n first_o the_o spiritual_a influence_n the_o sacrament_n put_v forth_o be_v not_o from_o themselves_o immediate_o but_o as_o they_o be_v use_v by_o the_o spirit_n for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o this_o first_o part_n consider_v it_o in_o some_o thing_n 1_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o a_o principal_a but_o a_o instrumental_a cause_n in_o any_o spiritual_a work_n they_o do_v not_o set_v themselves_o a_o work_n but_o they_o work_v under_o the_o principal_a agent_n as_o a_o tool_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o man_n so_o in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o sacrament_n it_o be_v by_o the_o mediation_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o mean_n of_o faith_n mark_v 10.16_o he_o that_o believe_v and_o
