baptism_n with_o the_o modesty_n of_o that_o sex_n i_o know_v not_o i_o know_v that_o figtree_n leaf_n be_v find_v out_o to_o shadow_v this_o fault_n but_o in_o my_o opinion_n it_o be_v but_o to_o lay_v colour_n upon_o colour_n to_o find_v out_o figtree_n leave_v to_o cover_v nakedness_n withal_o how_o much_o better_o be_v it_o for_o lady_n according_a to_o the_o apostle_n counsel_n to_o array_v themselves_o with_o good-worke_n to_o diminish_v something_o of_o their_o bravery_n that_o they_o may_v be_v better_a able_a to_o exercise_v the_o deed_n of_o charity_n as_o dorcas_n do_v this_o as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v a_o general_a duty_n to_o which_o all_o of_o we_o be_v bind_v without_o distinction_n of_o sex_n or_o degree_n and_o that_o by_o our_o very_a vow_n in_o baptism_n in_o which_o we_o be_v make_v christ_n soldier_n for_o though_o woman_n be_v privilege_v from_o bear_v of_o arm_n and_o from_o the_o performance_n of_o military_a service_n yet_o christ_n soldier_n they_o be_v as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o bind_v to_o fight_v against_o the_o world_n the_o flesh_n and_o the_o devil_n bind_v to_o serve_v god_n in_o the_o general_a duty_n of_o all_o christian_n and_o in_o the_o particular_a duty_n which_o their_o sex_n and_o calling_n require_v and_o hereof_o i_o suppose_v you_o be_v not_o ignorant_a the_o apostle_n 3.18_o colos_n 3.18_o if_o any_o be_v ignorant_a will_v at_o large_a inform_v they_o in_o their_o duty_n be_v thou_o a_o maid_n 7.32_o 1._o cor._n 7.32_o be_v as_o one_o that_o care_v for_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o lord_n how_o thou_o may_v please_v god_n be_v thou_o a_o wife_n 3.18_o coloss_n 3.18_o submit_v thyself_o to_o thy_o husband_n as_o be_v comely_a in_o the_o lord_n be_v thou_o a_o widow_n 5.6_o 1._o tim._n 5.6_o remember_v that_o the_o widow_n that_o live_v in_o pleasure_n be_v dead_a here_o a_o question_n be_v move_v which_o of_o these_o estate_n be_v the_o best_a but_o in_o my_o opinion_n a_o curious_a one_o and_o not_o meet_v to_o be_v handle_v especial_o at_o this_o time_n for_o they_o be_v all_o good_a and_o commendable_a each_o of_o they_o have_v several_a duty_n appertain_v in_o perform_v whereof_o they_o shall_v have_v more_o honour_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n more_o reward_n with_o god_n then_o for_o all_o other_o the_o niceness_n and_o trimnesse_n of_o the_o body_n whatsoever_o but_o to_o shut_v up_o all_o in_o a_o word_n as_o our_o saviour_n do_v promise_v salvation_n to_o he_o that_o be_v baptize_v so_o here_o on_o the_o contrary_a he_o say_v but_o he_o that_o be_v not_o baptize_v shall_v be_v damn_v out_o of_o which_o some_o have_v infer_v that_o baptism_n be_v not_o simple_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n which_o doctrine_n although_o i_o take_v to_o be_v very_o true_a yet_o be_v it_o not_o absolute_a nor_o right_o collect_v out_o of_o this_o place_n for_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o in_o this_o overthrow_n that_o which_o he_o speak_v in_o the_o former_a and_o we_o must_v hold_v a_o conjunction_n of_o both_o these_o i_o mean_v faith_n and_o baptism_n both_o be_v in_o their_o kind_n necessary_a yet_o as_o i_o say_v not_o so_o but_o that_o in_o some_o case_n one_o may_v be_v save_v without_o either_o faith_n or_o baptism_n some_o have_v no_o faith_n and_o yet_o be_v save_v for_o what_o actual_a faith_n have_v infant_n some_o think_v there_o be_v actual_a faith_n in_o they_o from_o which_o i_o suppose_v s._n augustine_n do_v not_o much_o swerve_v other_o have_v have_v faith_n but_o not_o baptism_n as_o valentinian_n and_o yet_o be_v save_v some_o have_v neither_o have_v faith_n nor_o baptism_n and_o yet_o be_v save_v as_o child_n decease_v before_o they_o can_v come_v to_o receive_v baptism_n it_o be_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n of_o regeneration_n and_o therefore_o not_o to_o be_v contemn_v not_o to_o be_v defer_v for_o howsoever_o god_n be_v powerful_a enough_o without_o mean_n to_o regenerate_a and_o bring_v to_o salvation_n yet_o those_o holy_a mean_n which_o himself_o have_v appoint_v &_o sanctify_v to_o that_o purpose_n must_v by_o no_o mean_n be_v contemn_v nor_o neglect_v for_o he_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v baptize_v shall_v be_v save_v which_o favour_n god_n grant_v we_o all_o for_o his_o christ_n sake_n amen_n finis_fw-la seek_v to_o find_v luke_n 24.5_o why_o seek_v you_o he_o that_o live_v among_o
