it_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o church_n not_o to_o lay_v too_o much_o on_o particular_a word_n and_o make_v they_o seem_v essential_a to_o baptism_n or_o more_o necessary_a than_o they_o be_v and_o to_o this_o day_n if_o any_o in_o other_o word_n express_v the_o same_o thing_n he_o may_v be_v baptize_v but_o ad_fw-la melius_fw-la esse_fw-la and_o for_o concord_n and_o

the_o church_n must_v make_v
and_o visible_a symbol_n of_o a_o christian_a and_o church-member_n and_o that_o all_o christ_n church_n have_v so_o account_v of_o baptism_n to_o this_o day_n and_o true_a tradition_n be_v in_o no_o
