not_o right_o but_o without_o faith_n the_o word_n of_o god_n abide_v evermore_o true_a and_o be_v leave_v unto_o we_o for_o our_o instruction_n but_o in_o that_o all_o man_n do_v not_o acknowledge_v it_o to_o be_v the_o truth_n and_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v instruct_v thereby_o they_o yea_o their_o lack_n of_o faith_n be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o simon_n magus_n be_v baptize_v but_o not_o purge_v not_o for_o because_o baptism_n be_v without_o effect_n or_o be_v not_o the_o true_a sign_n of_o our_o cleanse_n but_o because_o he_o believe_v not_o in_o like_o manner_n judas_n at_o the_o supper_n of_o our_o lord_n receive_v not_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n unto_o eternal_a life_n not_o because_o the_o sacrament_n do_v not_o represent_v and_o offer_v the_o same_o meat_n of_o eternal_a life_n but_o because_o he_o receive_v it_o without_o faith_n again_o the_o use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n do_v grace_n not_o therefore_o obtain_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n unto_o we_o because_o it_o be_v our_o work_n but_o we_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n because_o through_o grace_n we_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n in_o christ_n by_o faith_n and_o now_o be_v in_o his_o favour_n &_o therefore_o by_o this_o mean_n show_v ourselves_o thankful_a and_o obedient_a towards_o he_o again_o we_o know_v that_o the_o grace_n and_o gift_n of_o god_n do_v oftentimes_o increase_v and_o grow_v in_o the_o faithful_a s._n paul_n to_o the_o roman_n the_o four_o ask_v whether_o abraham_n be_v justify_v through_o circumcision_n and_o whether_o he_o be_v justify_v before_o or_o after_o he_o be_v circumcise_v he_o answer_v not_o in_o circumcision_n but_o before_o he_o be_v circumcise_v and_o yet_o be_v not_o circumcision_n unprositable_a or_o a_o vain_a sign_n for_o he_o receive_v the_o same_o

the_o answer_n it_o appear_v by_o this_o question_n anabaptist_n they_o mind_n to_o make_v some_o proof_n of_o we_o what_o we_o do_v think_v of_o the_o anabaptist_n wherefore_o we_o answer_v that_o even_o you_o which_o be_v the_o upholder_n &_o maintainer_n of_o the_o popish_a kingdom_n &_o the_o hinderer_n of_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v most_o wicked_o offend_v and_o that_o the_o

will_v suffer_v the_o pure_a preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o have_v his_o free_a passage_n then_o can_v not_o this_o heresy_n nor_o any_o other_o so_o mighty_o prevail_v and_o take_v place_n to_o the_o deceive_n of_o simple_a and_o unlearned_a man_n which_o think_v what_o so_o ever_o be_v teach_v they_o be_v straight_o way_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n neither_o go_v we_o about_o to_o defend_v the_o anabaptist_n from_o who_o we_o dissent_v very_o much_o as_o in_o all_o our_o book_n we_o do_v plain_o declare_v but_o many_o of_o they_o be_v very_o simple_a man_n and_o otherwise_o of_o a_o honest_a nature_n who_o have_v scarce_o hear_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o gospel_n or_o if_o they_o have_v yet_o because_o they_o see_v so_o little_a amendment_n of_o life_n among_o those_o that_o profess_v the_o same_o &_o be_v call_v gospeler_n yield_v to_o the_o subtle_a persuasion_n of_o the_o anabaptist_n think_v they_o shall_v great_o offend_v if_o they_o baptise_v their_o infant_n take_v a_o oath_n or_o come_v unto_o those_o church_n in_o which_o as_o they_o say_v sinner_n do_v yet_o remain_v yea_o that_o no_o minister_n which_o receive_v any_o stipend_n for_o his_o ministry_n or_o do_v not_o himself_o all_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o teach_v other_o to_o do_v can_v teach_v the_o true_a doctrine_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o congregation_n a_o true_a church_n in_o which_o the_o order_n of_o prophesy_v and_o excommunication_n be_v not_o according_a to_o that_o form_n which_o s._n paul_n have_v prescribe_v 1._o corrin_n 14._o therefore_o as_o these_o their_o error_n be_v not_o to_o be_v suffer_v so_o yet_o must_v they_o be_v friendly_a instruct_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o so_o bring_v home_o again_o as_o s._n paul_n teach_v rom._n 14._o but_o if_o they_o be_v contentious_a and_o stubborn_a they_o must_v not_o yet_o therefore_o straight_o way_n be_v cast_v off_o but_o hope_v better_a of_o they_o take_v heed_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n lest_o they_o infect_a any_o other_o with_o these_o their_o obscure_a opinion_n while_o we_o look_v for_o their_o amendment_n and_o if_o they_o be_v not_o convert_v yet_o must_v we_o always_o deal_v sober_o vertuoussy_n and_o holy_o with_o they_o have_v a_o consideration_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o person_n in_o correct_v and_o punish_v of_o they_o other_o some_o of_o they_o be_v not_o of_o a_o simple_a and_o honest_a nature_n but_o malicious_a troublesome_a envious_a covetous_a which_o all_o their_o life_n time_n have_v be_v unquiet_a and_o obstinate_a ever_o love_v contention_n and_o so_o fall_v into_o that_o error_n do_v amongst_o themselves_o raise_v up_o broil_n stir_v man_n against_o their_o magistrate_n and_o preacher_n against_o oath_n against_o judgement_n and_o punishment_n against_o tax_n rent_n and_o tiche_n and_o many_o other_o thing_n furthermore_o they_o stir_v up_o contention_n between_o man_n and_o wife_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o cloak_n and_o smoothe_v themselves_o with_o a_o certain_a glorious_a &_o hipocritical_a kind_n of_o speech_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v far_o honest_a man_n than_o they_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n for_o what_o they_o will_v do_v if_o they_o may_v have_v free_a liberty_n we_o have_v good_a experience_n in_o the_o monkish_a anabaptist_n if_o therefore_o these_o man_n which_o be_v so_o malicious_a may_v be_v free_o suffer_v &_o no_o punishment_n do_v unto_o they_o the_o common_a wealth_n will_v quite_o be_v overthrow_v as_o experience_n do_v teach_v we_o and_o these_o man_n be_v the_o head_n of_o this_o faction_n abuse_v the_o simple_a sort_n do_v in_o like_a manner_n stir_v they_o up_o to_o be_v contentious_a and_o raise_v tumult_n whereupon_o be_v thus_o instruct_v although_o they_o be_v manifest_o overthrow_v by_o the_o truth_n yet_o leave_v they_o not_o their_o error_n nor_o will_v receive_v any_o godly_a instruction_n but_o despise_v the_o gentleness_n and_o mercy_n of_o the_o magistrate_n never_o keep_v touch_n though_o they_o promise_v and_o swear_v never_o so_o much_o have_v no_o regard_n to_o honesty_n never_o cease_v to_o molest_v and_o trouble_v the_o congregation_n with_o their_o rash_a and_o seditious_a deal_n and_o touch_v these_o man_n what_o both_o god_n law_n and_o man_n do_v decree_v of_o they_o it_o be_v manifest_o know_v wherefore_o we_o do_v not_o go_v about_o to_o excuse_v any_o such_o neither_o have_v we_o any_o fellowship_n with_o they_o or_o with_o their_o teacher_n nor_o yet_o by_o god_n grace_n mind_n we_o to_o have_v touch_v the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n it_o infant_n have_v his_o authority_n from_o the_o scripture_n for_o because_o we_o all_o confess_v that_o baptism_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o people_n of_o god_n and_o that_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o infant_n be_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o god_n and_o be_v number_v with_o his_o people_n therefore_o baptism_n which_o be_v the_o sign_n hereof_o can_v be_v deny_v unto_o they_o again_o s._n peter_n in_o the_o act_n teach_v 10._o that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v which_o have_v the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o if_o the_o infant_n of_o the_o faithful_a have_v not_o the_o holy_a ghost_n then_o shall_v they_o not_o belong_v unto_o god_n neither_o shall_v they_o be_v holy_a nor_o have_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n but_o they_o be_v belong_v to_o god_n
