objection_n the_o great_a apostle_n of_o the_o gentile_n understand_v it_o not_o at_o all_o to_o relate_v to_o water-baptism_n as_o be_v clear_a from_o his_o own_o word_n 1._o cor._n 1.11_o christ_n send_v i_o not_o to_o baptise_v but_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o we_o never_o read_v that_o he_o baptize_v any_o with_o water_n after_o but_o in_o vers._n 23._o say_v we_o preach_v christ_n crucify_v to_o the_o jew_n a_o stumbling-block_n and_o unto_o the_o greek_n foolishness_n but_o unto_o they_o which_o be_v call_v both_o jew_n and_o greek_n christ_n the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n consider_v if_o christ_n be_v not_o sufficient_a without_o water-baptism_n take_v the_o apostle_n word_n in_o vers._n 30_o 31._o but_o of_o he_o be_v you_o in_o christ_n

christ_n alone_o be_v exalt_v and_o preach_v to_o be_v all_o we_o have_v to_o glory_n in_o and_o enough_o too_o for_o in_o he_o all_o fullness_n dwell_v second_o be_v it_o not_o plain_a and_o full_a that_o water-baptism_n be_v not_o at_o all_o intend_a matt._n 28.19_o for_o christ_n say_v plain_o go_v teach_v all_o nation_n baptise_v they_o in_o or_o they_o into_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n here_o be_v a_o vast_a difference_n between_o man_n be_v baptize_v into_o outward_a water_n and_o send_v to_o baptise_v into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n for_o they_o be_v now_o to_o enter_v upon_o a_o more_o excellent_a baptism_n they_o have_v be_v baptise_v with_o water_n before_o that_o but_o now_o they_o be_v to_o be_v baptise_a into_o the_o name_n spirit_n and_o power_n of_o god_n that_o then_o they_o therein_o may_v be_v instrumental_a in_o christ_n hand_n who_o be_v and_o will_v be_v with_o they_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n for_o the_o baptise_v other_o into_o this_o name_n that_o believe_v through_o their_o word_n three_o christ_n know_v that_o in_o his_o name_n they_o will_v be_v make_v capable_a both_o to_o speak_v to_o go_v and_o to_o baptise_v man_n effectual_o hitherto_o say_v christ_n you_o have_v ask_v nothing_o in_o my_o name_n but_o bid_v they_o ask_v and_o a_o little_a before_o very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o whatsoever_o you_o shall_v ask_v the_o father_n in_o my_o name_n he_o shall_v give_v it_o you_o so_o it_o be_v clear_a christ_n mind_n be_v to_o have_v they_o acquaint_v with_o and_o baptize_v into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n john_n 16.23_o so_o in_o his_o prayer_n john_n 17.6_o he_o say_v i_o have_v manifest_v thy_o

28._o speak_v unto_o they_o say_v all_o power_n be_v give_v unto_o i_o both_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n go_v you_o therefore_o and_o teach_v all_o nation_n baptise_v they_o into_o the_o name_n etc._n etc._n now_o the_o word_n go_v you_o therefore_o seem_v to_o carry_v with_o it_o a_o plain_a demonstration_n of_o christ_n mind_n that_o now_o all_o power_n be_v he_o both_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n he_o will_v therefore_o have_v all_o nation_n both_o teach_v and_o bring_v into_o his_o power_n and_o baptize_v into_o it_o so_o as_o to_o be_v save_v by_o it_o for_o there_o be_v no_o
