their_o place_n and_o as_o to_o this_o in_o particular_a can_v you_o come_v into_o god_n presence_n with_o too_o much_o reverence_n do_v not_o the_o psalmist_n say_v come_v bow_v down_o and_o kneel_v before_o the_o lord_n your_o maker_n and_o can_v there_o be_v too_o much_o reverence_n in_o come_v before_o the_o lord_n in_o such_o a_o holy_a ordinance_n dissen_n you_o say_v in_o aaron_n time_n you_o go_v a_o great_a way_n back_o and_o that_o into_o the_o law_n too_o but_o christ_n be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n and_o of_o righteousness_n to_o all_o that_o believe_v mark_v it_o be_v to_o all_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o it_o be_v not_o to_o all_o that_o observe_v this_o and_o that_o ceremony_n now_o when_o christ_n and_o his_o disciple_n go_v into_o the_o temple_n to_o pray_v and_o to_o preach_v do_v we_o read_v of_o their_o put_n on_o the_o priest_n garment_n no_o and_o do_v you_o think_v when_o christ_n preach_v in_o the_o mount_n and_o in_o the_o ship_n and_o such_o place_n that_o he_o have_v this_o and_o that_o garment_n on_o no_o we_o read_v it_o not_o church-m_a you_o talk_v of_o preach_v we_o do_v not_o use_v the_o surplice_n in_o preach_v it_o be_v only_o in_o prayer_n dissen_n well_o in_o prayer_n do_v we_o read_v of_o the_o apostle_n pray_v in_o this_o or_o that_o garment_n or_o that_o when_o they_o pray_v in_o any_o place_n among_o a_o congregation_n of_o people_n that_o there_o be_v any_o garment_n bring_v they_o to_o put_v on_o no_o but_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o this_o be_v a_o ceremony_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o though_o 〈◊〉_d our_o church_n do_v decent_a from_o she_o yet_o not_o from_o this_o and_o the_o other_o ceremony_n which_o we_o have_v now_o in_o hand_n second_o you_o say_v the_o cross_n in_o baptism_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o their_o not_o deny_v the_o christian_a faith_n but_o still_o it_o be_v more_o than_o you_o have_v rule_n for_o in_o scripture_n for_o as_o i_o say_v before_o the_o apostle_n bid_v we_o walk_v as_o you_o have_v we_o for_o example_n now_o of_o all_o that_o they_o baptise_a we_o read_v of_o none_o that_o they_o cross_v church-m_a no_o i_o do_v not_o know_v how_o they_o shall_v when_o they_o do_v not_o know_v the_o cross_n for_o christ_n have_v not_o then_o suffer_v upon_o the_o cross_n dissen_n pray_v after_o christ_n have_v suffer_v we_o read_v of_o none_o of_o the_o three_o thousand_o that_o they_o cross_v but_o only_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n they_o be_v baptise_a and_o you_o hear_v of_o no_o more_o and_o why_o then_o will_v you_o go_v beyond_o the_o scripture_n rule_n three_o you_o say_v can_v there_o be_v too_o much_o reverence_n in_o so_o holy_a a_o ordinance_n i_o answer_v no_o there_o can_v but_o yet_o in_o the_o temple_n there_o be_v not_o to_o be_v a_o ring_n a_o bowl_n a_o pin_n more_o than_o god_n have_v appoint_v and_o that_o be_v by_o a_o pattern_n show_v to_o moses_n in_o the_o mount_n and_o god_n will_v have_v nothing_o in_o his_o worship_n more_o than_o he_o have_v appoint_v you_o will_v think_v it_o be_v a_o small_a matter_n for_o nadab_n and_o a_o abihud_o when_o god_n have_v command_v the_o fire_n shall_v not_o go_v out_o upon_o the_o altar_n and_o because_o they_o do_v let_v it_o go_v out_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v through_o negligence_n well_o what_o must_v they_o do_v the_o fire_n which_o be_v upon_o the_o altar_n be_v holy_a fire_n and_o there_o be_v the_o command_n it_o must_v not_o be_v let_v out_o well_o but_o it_o be_v out_o must_v it_o not_o be_v light_v again_o when_o god_n command_v it_o shall_v be_v keep_v in_o but_o you_o see_v for_o the_o do_v of_o it_o they_o both_o of_o they_o lose_v their_o life_n and_o yet_o here_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o command_n now_o if_o god_n will_v not_o have_v a_o pin_n in_o the_o temple_n more_o than_o be_v in_o the_o pattern_n sure_a in_o his_o gospel_n temple_n he_o will_v have_v no_o more_o than_o his_o son_n and_o his_o apostle_n set_v for_o a_o example_n and_o if_o for_o but_o light_v of_o the_o fire_n without_o a_o command_n when_o a_o command_n seem_v to_o be_v employ_v there_o be_v death_n for_o they_o that_o do_v it_o how_o dare_v you_o enjoin_v any_o to_o god_n worship_n when_o you_o have_v no_o command_n for_o fear_v of_o the_o same_o judgement_n to_o come_v upon_o you_o now_o our_o saviour_n when_o he_o be_v sit_v with_o his_o disciple_n he_o take_v the_o bread_n and_o bless_v it_o and_o give_v it_o to_o his_o disciple_n neither_o do_v we_o read_v that_o the_o disciple_n receive_v it_o kneel_v and_o will_v you_o go_v to_o pretend_v to_o be_v more_o holy_a than_o they_o and_o more_o reverent_a than_o they_o be_v this_o show_v you_o to_o be_v like_o saul_n when_o god_n command_v he_o to_o spare_v none_o yet_o contrary_a to_o god_n command_n he_o out_o of_o his_o pretend_a zeal_n take_v of_o the_o best_a of_o the_o flock_n nay_o and_o he_o do_v it_o for_o a_o good_a end_n it_o be_v to_o offer_v up_o sacrifice_n to_o the_o lord_n god_n yet_o you_o see_v how_o god_n threaten_v saul_n for_o do_v it_o and_o its_o possible_a saul_n may_v do_v it_o in_o zeal_n for_o god_n but_o yet_o because_o it_o be_v not_o according_a to_o god_n command_v he_o threaten_v they_o with_o sore_a judgement_n so_o that_o though_o you_o pretend_v reverence_n to_o god_n in_o his_o worship_n yet_o if_o you_o do_v more_o than_o god_n command_v it_o be_v superstition_n and_o idolatry_n and_o so_o come_v under_o the_o sentence_n of_o god_n judgement_n which_o he_o have_v pronounce_v in_o such_o a_o cause_n and_o as_o we_o have_v begin_v with_o these_o subject_n baptism_n and_o the_o lords-supper_n there_o be_v more_o to_o be_v discourse_v on_o both_o of_o they_o and_o that_o be_v in_o baptism_n the_o ceremony_n of_o godfathers_n and_o godmothers_n and_o in_o the_o lords-supper_n who_o be_v the_o subject_a of_o it_o but_o first_o why_o do_v you_o use_v godfathers_n and_z godmothers_n in_o baptism_n church-m_a why_o our_o church_n be_v so_o tender_a of_o the_o good_a youth_n and_o for_o the_o bring_n of_o they_o up_o in_o the_o nurture_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o they_o will_v have_v that_o care_v take_v for_o they_o that_o if_o their_o parent_n shall_v die_v they_o may_v not_o be_v lose_v for_o want_n of_o care_n or_o look_v after_o and_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o good_a use_n dissen_n but_o who_o be_v sufficient_a for_o these_o thing_n do_v not_o we_o see_v that_o many_o do_v promise_n and_o enter_v into_o this_o engagement_n that_o take_v no_o further_a care_n and_o so_o we_o may_v consequent_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v more_o ruin_v by_o breach_n of_o promise_n then_o there_o be_v save_v by_o have_v of_o they_o beside_o we_o do_v not_o hear_v any_o command_n for_o it_o and_o i_o think_v its_o a_o piece_n of_o presumption_n in_o parent_n that_o if_o they_o shall_v die_v before_o their_o child_n be_v of_o year_n of_o maturity_n they_o then_o will_v commit_v they_o soon_o to_o a_o earthly_a friend_n rather_o than_o to_o that_o god_n that_o have_v promise_v he_o will_v be_v a_o father_n to_o the_o fatherless_a church-m_a hold_v hold_v no_o we_o do_v not_o think_v that_o any_o friend_n can_v do_v for_o they_o as_o god_n can_v this_o be_v your_o mistake_n dissen_n how_o do_v you_o mean_v my_o mistake_n suppose_v you_o be_v upon_o your_o deathbed_n and_o you_o be_v to_o send_v for_o i_o and_o commit_v to_o my_o care_n a_o only_a child_n say_v you_o be_v the_o only_a friend_n i_o can_v trn_v this_o child_n with_o well_o i_o give_v you_o my_o hand_n and_o seal_n that_o i_o will_v be_v as_o a_o father_n to_o it_o but_o notwathstand_v when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o pinch_v you_o will_v not_o believe_v i_o but_o set_v another_o to_o watch_v over_o i_o to_o see_v that_o i_o discharge_v my_o duty_n will_v not_o this_o show_v some_o distrust_n of_o my_o fainfulness_n you_o say_v you_o leave_v your_o child_n to_o god_n and_o i_o say_v he_o have_v promise_v to_o be_v a_o father_n to_o the_o fatherless_a and_o he_o have_v all_o heaven_n and_o earth_n to_o rule_n and_o dispose_v of_o as_o he_o please_v but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o this_o promise_n you_o will_v not_o put_v your_o trust_n in_o he_o but_o must_v have_v a_o godfather_n to_o come_v in_o for_o a_o share_n and_o in_o their_o come_n on_o they_o promise_v and_o vow_n that_o they_o shall_v do_v these_o thing_n forsake_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o work_n the_o pomp_n of_o this_o world_n alas_o a_o thing_n out_o of_o the_o reach_n of_o man_n for_o they_o can_v do_v it_o in_o
