A57271	Laying on of hands asserted: or, A plain discovery of the truth thereof under those several considerations, minded in the New Testament. 1. Upon persons for healing: with a brief discovery of that ordinance of Christ, (to wit) anointing with oile. 2. Upon persons to office. 3. Upon believers, baptized, as such: and that principle of Christs doctrine cleared, for their obedience: with objections answered to each particular. To which is annexed, a confutation of four chapters written by some person, or persons, in opposition to this principle of the doctrine of Christ, (to wit) laying on of hands upon believers baptized, as such; wherein the weakness of their reasons against the truth, is plainly discovered, and the truth further asserted, and vindicated.

a_o gift_n he_o be_v to_o be_v up_o and_o do_v to_o administer_v the_o same_o query_n but_o some_o may_v say_v be_v there_o no_o ordinance_n that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v leave_v unto_o

herein_o the_o soul_n ought_v to_o wait_v upon_o god_n and_o in_o this_o way_n to_o look_v up_o unto_o god_n for_o heal_v but_o oh_a the_o evil_a of_o professor_n in_o this_o our_o day_n who_o run_v

the_o lord_n for_o this_o reprove_v they_o with_o judgement_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 4_o 5_o and_o 6_o verse_n and_o after_o by_o his_o servant_n haggai_n exhort_v they_o unto_o the_o

question_v his_o faithfulness_n in_o make_v good_a his_o promise_n from_o whence_o do_v this_o proceed_v our_o look_n for_o such_o and_o such_o effect_n but_o indeed_o from_o our_o unbelief_n not_o believe_v the_o promise_n of_o god_n therefore_o take_v heed_n of_o judge_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n by_o the_o effect_n for_o in_o so_o do_v you_o will_v make_v the_o way_n of_o god_n of_o no_o

as_o the_o lord_n jesus_n do_v unto_o the_o jew_n if_o you_o will_v do_v his_o will_n you_o shall_v know_v of_o the_o doctrine_n john_n 7._o 17._o 3._o what_o effect_n have_v you_o see_v of_o the_o

therefore_o they_o instance_n moses_n lay_v on_o his_o hand_n upon_o joshua_n numb._n 27._o 23_o vers._n but_o you_o shall_v find_v a_o more_o excellent_a effect_n that_o which_o fit_v he_o for_o

upon_o he_o learn_v from_o hence_o that_o as_o it_o be_v god_n way_n so_o he_o meet_v with_o his_o people_n therein_o and_o as_o in_o that_o ordinance_n of_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n upon_o person_n to_o office_n so_o also_o in_o this_o of_o anoint_v with_o oil_n for_o his_o way_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a unto_o his_o people_n 4._o those_o who_o have_v wait_v upon_o god_n in_o this_o ordinance_n have_v find_v the_o effect_n thereof_o they_o have_v meet_v with_o god_n therein_o they_o have_v see_v his_o faithfulness_n be_v partaker_n of_o his_o grace_n receive_v heal_v not_o only_o to_o their_o body_n but_o also_o to_o their_o soul_n this_o effect_n some_o poor_a soul_n who_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o this_o way_n have_v be_v partaker_n of_o so_o that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o bear_v witness_n to_o this_o truth_n and_o also_o to_o set_v to_o their_o seal_n that_o god_n be_v true_a a_o faithful_a god_n meet_v with_o those_o who_o wait_v upon_o he_o in_o his_o way_n therefore_o i_o may_v say_v of_o this_o truth_n of_o christ_n as_o one_o may_v say_v of_o the_o new_a wine_n in_o the_o cluster_n isai._n 65._o 8_o vers._n destroy_v it_o not_o for_o a_o blessing_n be_v in_o it_o 5._o we_o do_v not_o so_o much_o mind_n in_o our_o wait_n upon_o god_n in_o this_o way_n to_o see_v a_o immediate_a work_n of_o heal_v which_o be_v that_o which_o too_o many_o dote_v upon_o and_o so_o like_o thomas_n unless_o they_o see_v a_o sign_n they_o will_v not_o believe_v john_n 20._o 25_o vers._n but_o we_o do_v chief_o mind_v our_o duty_n believe_v that_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a our_o wait_n upon_o he_o therein_o so_o leave_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o unto_o god_n who_o know_v best_a when_o to_o give_v in_o mercy_n to_o his_o people_n now_o this_o may_v be_v matter_n of_o information_n especial_o to_o those_o who_o look_v upon_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n for_o heal_v to_o be_v the_o anoint_n with_o oil_n speak_v of_o by_o the_o apostle_n james_n that_o they_o be_v and_o be_v two_o distinct_a thing_n the_o one_o be_v a_o particular_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o a_o person_n may_v receive_v of_o heal_v immediate_o by_o the_o lay_n on_o of_o hand_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n do_v act_n 28._o 8_o vers._n and_o many_o other_o also_o the_o other_o a_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n wherein_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n be_v to_o act_v and_o that_o not_o by_o virtue_n of_o any_o particular_a gift_n but_o of_o their_o ministerial_a office_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n iam._n 5._o let_v he_o call_v for_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n and_o let_v they_o pray_v over_o he_o anoint_v he_o with_o oil_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n wherein_o they_o ought_v as_o in_o all_o other_o appointment_n to_o look_v up_o unto_o the_o lord_n for_o a_o blessing_n leave_v the_o give_v forth_o of_o his_o grace_n to_o the_o poor_a soul_n unto_o himself_o 2._o by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v be_v reprove_v the_o ignorance_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n this_o day_n that_o have_v be_v long_o read_v and_o learn_v of_o the_o scripture_n and_o yet_o be_v ignorant_a of_o this_o command_n and_o likewise_o those_o that_o be_v teacher_n and_o leader_n of_o congregation_n

i_o in_o they_o and_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o it_o be_v a_o rotten-principle_n and_o that_o which_o god_n will_v never_o approve_v of_o for_o any_o one_o to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o he_o mere_o because_o they_o shall_v receive_v such_o or_o such_o a_o gift_n from_o he_o and_o i_o wish_v this_o may_v not_o be_v a_o evil_a of_o many_o professor_n in_o this_o our_o day_n not_o only_o those_o who_o have_v be_v in_o our_o practice_n but_o in_o you_o also_o who_o have_v upon_o such_o ground_n submit_v propound_v such_o or_o such_o benefit_n to_o themselves_o then_o miss_v of_o their_o end_n they_o have_v be_v offend_v and_o so_o have_v reject_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o good_a way_n of_o god_n alas_o we_o may_v say_v when_o we_o have_v do_v all_o we_o be_v unprofitable_a servant_n and_o have_v do_v the_o whole_a will_n of_o god_n we_o have_v need_n of_o patience_n we_o do_v confess_v we_o be_v weak_a and_o possible_a may_v come_v under_o that_o reproof_n the_o apostle_n give_v the_o hebrew_n church_n who_o be_v under_o this_o principle_n of_o christ_n doctrine_n as_o well_o as_o we_o that_o for_o the_o time_n we_o may_v have_v be_v teacher_n yet_o we_o have_v need_n to_o be_v teach_v again_o but_o this_o be_v our_o comfort_n that_o god_n do_v in_o any_o measure_n accept_v of_o we_o and_o though_o we_o have_v but_o a_o little_a strength_n yet_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o hold_v fast_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o in_o so_o do_v we_o be_v confident_a he_o will_v approve_v of_o we_o rev._n 3._o 8_o 9_o 10._o but_o this_o we_o know_v that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n though_o never_o so_o much_o endue_v with_o his_o wisdom_n be_v still_o fool_n in_o the_o wise_a world_n account_n as_o possible_a we_o may_v be_v in_o your_o eye_n and_o though_o we_o be_v so_o account_v by_o you_o yet_o learn_v to_o know_v that_o god_n make_v use_v of_o foolish_a instrument_n and_o therefore_o far_o to_o this_o i_o may_v say_v that_o what_o god_n bestow_v upon_o we_o in_o this_o or_o any_o of_o his_o way_n it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o be_v thankful_a to_o he_o for_o and_o if_o we_o can_v learn_v this_o lesson_n to_o make_v a_o right_a use_n of_o what_o we_o have_v receive_v we_o may_v be_v confident_a of_o receive_v more_o from_o god_n likewise_o to_o call_v this_o a_o principle_n to_o wit_v lay_v on_o of_o hand_n upon_o believer_n baptise_v as_o such_o be_v not_o to_o grant_v as_o you_o say_v that_o one_o of_o the_o foundation-stone_n be_v now_o lose_v but_o be_v indeed_o again_o restore_v and_o that_o to_o its_o right_a use_n which_o have_v be_v for_o a_o long_a season_n in_o a_o wrong_a manner_n apply_v and_o now_o by_o you_o whole_o reject_v your_o second_o reason_n be_v that_o this_o lay_n on_o of_o hand_n can_v be_v the_o principle_n because_o this_o lay_n on_o of_o hand_n be_v there_o call_v a_o doctrine_n but_o that_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n to_o give_v the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v never_o once_o
