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. By VVilliam Rider, servant to the Church of Christ.	Rider, William, fl. 1656.	1656 (1656)	Wing R1444A; ESTC R217997	59,976	201

by_o this_o we_o may_v see_v that_o satan_n will_v leave_v no_o stone_n unturned_a if_o possible_a he_o can_v overturn_v the_o truth_n your_o three_o reason_n be_v because_o if_o this_o lay_n on_o of_o hand_n to_o wit_v upon_o believer_n baptise_v as_o such_o be_v the_o foundation-principle_n than_o this_o very_a church_n of_o the_o hebrew_n the_o first_o constitute_v church_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n after_o christ_n ascension_n this_o church_n be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o act_n 1._o and_o 2_o chapt._n have_v want_v a_o principle_n in_o religion_n which_o be_v very_o absurd_a to_o imagine_v for_o they_o have_v not_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n to_o this_o end_n act_v the_o 8._o be_v the_o first_o place_n that_o ever_o this_o be_v practise_v and_o sure_o in_o all_o matter_n about_o worship_n the_o write_a word_n must_v be_v our_o rule_n and_o to_o the_o scripture_n silence_n we_o must_v give_v consent_n according_a to_o the_o proverb_n where_o god_n have_v not_o a_o mouth_n to_o speak_v we_o must_v not_o have_v a_o ear_n to_o hear_v to_o which_o long_a discourse_n or_o reason_n of_o you_o whereby_o the_o truth_n be_v evade_v and_o something_o eclipse_v i_o answer_v that_o this_o church_n of_o christ_n do_v wait_v upon_o god_n in_o this_o way_n contrary_a to_o what_o you_o have_v speak_v and_o this_o i_o do_v affirm_v for_o if_o they_o continue_v in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n then_o in_o this_o practice_n it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v teach_v as_o before_o be_v plain_o discover_v in_o the_o second_o reason_n lay_v down_o in_o my_o book_n for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o truth_n likewise_o in_o the_o answer_n there_o to_o a_o objection_n but_o they_o do_v continue_v in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n act_n 2._o 42._o therefore_o in_o their_o obedience_n to_o this_o truth_n read_v the_o 41._o and_o 42_o verse_n and_o therefore_o act_n 8._o be_v not_o the_o first_o place_n that_o ever_o it_o be_v practise_v neither_o be_v they_o in_o act_n 2._o without_o this_o principle_n in_o religion_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v how_o shall_v they_o continue_v in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n and_o yet_o short_a in_o the_o principle_n thereof_o and_o therefore_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n be_v thus_o declare_v it_o plain_o discover_v his_o mouth_n speak_v to_o you_o and_o that_o your_o ear_n shall_v be_v obedient_a but_o you_o proceed_v further_o and_o say_v they_o have_v not_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n to_o this_o end_n because_o they_o receive_v the_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n without_o it_o i_o answer_v first_o take_v notice_n you_o say_v that_o those_o in_o act_n the_o 1._o and_o 2._o be_v not_o under_o it_o but_o this_o as_o before_o be_v false_a but_o if_o your_o say_n be_v true_a that_o they_o be_v not_o under_o it_o than_o i_o pray_v you_o to_o what_o end_n do_v they_o receive_v it_o why_o sure_o by_o your_o reason_n they_o do_v not_o receive_v it_o yet_o you_o say_v they_o have_v not_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n to_o this_o end_n because_o they_o receive_v the_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n without_o it_o and_o so_o instance_n act_v 2._o 1_o 2_o 3_o 4_o 5._o vers._n to_o which_o i_o answer_v they_o that_o be_v there_o say_v to_o receive_v the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v under_o the_o promise_n thereof_o without_o any_o more_o baptise_v with_o water_n this_o be_v the_o promise_n and_o the_o command_n of_o christ_n unto_o they_o luke_n 24._o 49_o 50._o behold_v i_o will_v send_v the_o promise_n of_o my_o father_n upon_o you_o but_o tarry_v you_o at_o jerusalem_n until_o you_o be_v endue_v with_o power_n from_o on_o high_a and_o he_o lead_v they_o out_o as_o far_o as_o to_o bethany_n and_o lift_v up_o his_o hand_n and_o bless_a they_o and_o act_n 1._o 5._o say_v christ_n to_o his_o disciple_n john_n true_o baptise_v with_o water_n but_o you_o shall_v be_v baptise_v with_o the_o holy_a spirit_n not_o many_o day_n hence_o see_v vers._n the_o 4._o now_o though_o it_o be_v thus_o with_o the_o apostle_n and_o those_o who_o be_v immediate_o under_o this_o promise_n yet_o i_o do_v affirm_v that_o those_o three_o thousand_o who_o be_v in_o act_n 2._o 41._o and_o 42._o vers._n there_o say_v glad_o to_o receive_v the_o word_n and_o to_o be_v baptise_v and_o be_v add_v to_o this_o church_n be_v under_o this_o practice_n and_o that_o 1._o because_o they_o two_o wit_n those_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o 41._o and_o 42._o vers._n be_v not_o immediate_o under_o the_o promise_n as_o those_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o 2_o 3_o 4._o and_o 5_o vers._n but_o i_o may_v say_v conditional_o as_o the_o apostle_n sai_z vers._n 38._o and_o 39_o repent_v and_o be_v baptise_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o you_o shall_v receive_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n for_o say_v he_o the_o promise_n be_v to_o you_o and_o to_o your_o child_n and_o to_o all_o that_o be_v afar_o off_o even_o to_o as_o many_o as_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n shall_v call_v where_o you_o may_v see_v he_o do_v annex_v the_o end_n of_o this_o ordinance_n to_o wit_v the_o promise_a spirit_n unto_o faith_n and_o baptism_n 2._o if_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o teach_v lay_v on_o of_o hand_n unto_o these_o jew_n act_n 2._o 41._o they_o have_v be_v defective_a in_o a_o principle_n of_o christ_n doctrine_n of_o what_o christ_n teach_v unto_o they_o as_o heb._n 6._o 1._o but_o the_o apostle_n do_v teach_v lay_v on_o of_o hand_n to_o these_o jew_n as_o heb._n 5._o and_o 12._o compare_v with_o the_o 6._o 1_o 2._o vers._n do_v manifest_a and_o therefore_o be_v not_o defective_a in_o christ_n doctrine_n which_o hebrew_n by_o your_o own_o confession_n be_v the_o jew_n speak_v of_o in_o act_n 2._o now_o i_o will_v query_n of_o you_o whether_o you_o will_v still_o affirm_v upon_o due_a consideration_n of_o this_o also_o that_o the_o apostle_n peter_n have_v tell_v the_o jew_n in_o act_n 2._o 38._o that_o god_n will_v make_v good_a this_o promise_n of_o give_v his_o spirit_n unto_o they_o upon_o their_o obedience_n unto_o he_o whether_o you_o will_v still_o affirm_v that_o he_o do_v not_o act_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n for_o their_o be_v make_v partaker_n thereof_o as_o he_o do_v with_o those_o at_o samaria_n act_n 8._o or_o as_o paul_n do_v with_o those_o at_o ephesus_n act_n 19_o or_o upon_o timothy_n at_o derbe_n or_o lystra_n as_o in_o my_o book_n i_o have_v mind_v sure_o i_o think_v upon_o due_a consideration_n you_o dare_v not_o so_o affirm_v neither_o deny_v what_o i_o have_v write_v and_o herein_o query_v to_o be_v truth_n so_o that_o it_o do_v appear_v in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o examination_n of_o your_o second_o chapt._n that_o you_o be_v mistake_v in_o the_o lay_n on_o of_o hand_n which_o say_v you_o be_v not_o and_o can_v be_v mean_v heb._n 6._o 2._o your_o 3._o chapter_n contain_v according_a to_o your_o mistake_a judgement_n what_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n be_v and_o must_v be_v mean_v heb._n 6._o 2._o and_o therefore_o you_o begin_v for_o the_o better_a resolve_v of_o this_o question_n we_o must_v take_v notice_n that_o it_o be_v lay_v on_o of_o hand_n here_o in_o the_o singular_a number_n therefore_o can_v be_v but_o one_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n that_o be_v call_v here_o a_o principle_n and_o not_o more_o as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o for_o than_o it_o shall_v be_v lay_n on_o of_o hand_n in_o the_o plural_a number_n these_o be_v all_o your_o own_o word_n which_o i_o do_v the_o rather_o cite_v because_o i_o do_v own_o they_o to_o be_v word_n of_o truth_n but_o i_o pray_v you_o who_o will_v have_v it_o in_o the_o plural_a number_n why_o sure_o yourselves_o and_o therefore_o take_v notice_n that_o herein_o you_o be_v also_o divide_v and_o agree_v not_o in_o crucify_v of_o the_o truth_n see_v the_o 7_o page_n of_o mr_n harrison_n touchstone_n but_o now_o say_v you_o this_o be_v consider_v we_o must_v remember_v what_o go_v before_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n for_o heal_v nor_o for_o give_v the_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o heal_v i_o have_v before_o prove_v and_o your_o labour_n in_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o may_v have_v be_v spare_v unless_o it_o have_v be_v by_o any_o of_o we_o affirm_v but_o that_o it_o be_v for_o the_o give_n of_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v affirm_v for_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o promise_n of_o god_n unto_o believer_n baptise_v as_o such_o act_n 2._o 38._o now_o whereas_o you_o will_v have_v the_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o the_o holy_a
