sin_n which_o be_v past_a and_o yet_o that_o be_v your_o doctrine_n if_o you_o answer_v that_o all_o sin_n before_o baptism_n be_v absolute_o pardon_v then_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o a_o damn_a man_n may_v have_v more_o sin_n forgive_v he_o than_o one_o that_o be_v save_v that_o a_o man_n may_v have_v 10000_o sin_n forgive_v he_o and_o be_v damn_v for_o all_o that_o for_o some_o one_o which_o be_v evident_a in_o the_o example_n of_o a_o man_n baptize_v in_o the_o end_n of_o his_o life_n who_o yet_o after_o baptism_n commit_v some_o deadly_a sin_n without_o repentance_n as_o if_o in_o his_o go_n from_o the_o font_n he_o fall_v out_o with_o some_o man_n and_o present_o kill_v and_o be_v kill_v not_o have_v any_o thought_n of_o receive_v absolution_n by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n therefore_o baptism_n be_v not_o always_o accompany_v with_o remission_n of_o sin_n now_o that_o some_o obtain_v forgiveness_n of_o sin_n that_o never_o be_v baptize_v the_o papist_n themselves_o grant_v in_o two_o case_n at_o the_o least_o for_o they_o teach_v that_o votum_fw-la baptismi_fw-la the_o purpose_n to_o be_v baptize_v be_v sufficient_a when_o the_o thing_n itself_o can_v be_v have_v and_o that_o martyrdom_n be_v instead_o of_o baptism_n both_o these_o case_n be_v without_o warrant_n of_o scripture_n if_o we_o hold_v a_o necessity_n of_o baptism_n absolute_o to_o justification_n as_o they_o do_v but_o yet_o this_o they_o teach_v be_v it_o true_a or_o false_a baptism_n be_v indeed_o the_o laver_n of_o regeneration_n because_o all_o they_o that_o be_v baptize_v and_o none_o but_o they_o be_v regenerate_v but_o we_o understand_v not_o by_o baptism_n the_o outward_a wash_n only_o but_o the_o inward_a especial_o whereof_o that_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o sign_n and_o a_o seal_n yet_o such_o a_o sign_n and_o seal_v as_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n spirit_n confirm_v the_o christian_a soul_n in_o the_o true_a belief_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n many_o be_v save_v that_o never_o be_v baptize_v many_o have_v be_v baptize_v that_o never_o shall_v be_v save_v therefore_o baptism_n be_v in_o effect_n and_o force_n the_o laver_n of_o regeneration_n to_o those_o only_a that_o be_v save_v to_o all_o other_o it_o be_v the_o sign_n without_o the_o thing_n by_o reason_n that_o they_o receive_v not_o grace_n as_o well_o as_o water_n they_o say_v he_o that_o allow_v not_o the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n etc._n etc._n l._n l._n deny_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n be_v a_o fancy_n of_o man_n our_o saviour_n john_n 20._o 23._o ordain_v no_o such_o sacrament_n but_o only_a promise_n that_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n shall_v be_v effectual_a to_o the_o remit_v and_o retain_v of_o sin_n and_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o sacrament_n of_o ordinary_a use_n in_o the_o church_n which_o christ_n himself_o do_v not_o either_o receive_v or_o give_v if_o you_o will_v say_v that_o penance_n can_v not_o belong_v to_o he_o because_o he_o never_o sin_v after_o baptism_n i_o will_v affirm_v with_o as_o good_a reason_n that_o no_o more_o do_v baptism_n because_o he_o never_o sin_v at_o all_o for_o baptism_n as_o you_o here_o teach_v be_v the_o laver_n of_o regeneration_n for_o that_o in_o it_o the_o soul_n dead_a by_o sin_n be_v new_o regenerate_v by_o grace_n but_o christ_n soul_n be_v never_o dead_a neither_o indeed_o do_v the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n serve_v for_o any_o purpose_n to_o he_o who_o be_v wash_v from_o all_o his_o sin_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o all_o true_o baptise_a be_v what_o protestant_n ever_o deny_v that_o our_o sin_n be_v perfect_o forgive_v or_o what_o papist_n can_v better_o tell_v what_o it_o be_v to_o have_v sin_n forgive_v than_o the_o
