A30899	Quakerism confirmed, or, A vindication of the chief doctrines and principles of the people called Qvakers from the arguments and objections of the students of divinity (so called) of Aberdeen in their book entituled Quakerism convassed [sic] by Robert Barclay and George Keith.

be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o they_o think_v all_o be_v safe_a as_o to_o the_o minor_a and_o therefore_o they_o altogether_o pass_v it_o by_o now_o although_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o invalidat_n

liable_a to_o divers_a sense_n if_o they_o mean_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o her_o bishop_n and_o teacher_n we_o altogether_o deny_v that_o they_o have_v teach_v the_o same_o doctrine_n which_o the_o apostle_n teach_v and_o we_o suppose_v the_o student_n if_o they_o follow_v their_o master_n i._o m._n will_v not_o affirm_v it_o and_o indeed_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o best_a primitive_a protestant_n deny_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o their_o day_n have_v any_o lawfulll_v ordination_n at_o all_o see_v she_o continue_v not_o in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n and_o

as_o the_o soul_n which_o give_v life_n to_o the_o succession_n of_o the_o bishop_n as_o unto_o a_o body_n but_o that_o succession_n without_o this_o faith_n be_v a_o dead_a thing_n and_o unprofitable_a carcase_n now_o the_o same_o reason_n do_v militate_v as_o strong_o against_o water-baptism_n and_o that_o also_o call_v the_o supper_n upon_o our_o present_a adversary_n principle_n that_o none_o have_v power_n to_o administer_v the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o but_o those_o who_o have_v a_o mediate_v outward_a call_n convey_v down_o from_o the_o apostle_n by_o a_o visible_a

have_v have_v the_o true_a faith_n and_o teach_v the_o true_a doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n therefore_o their_o ordination_n and_o power_n to_o administer_v the_o sacrament_n be_v void_a and_o

videlicet_fw-la that_o either_o the_o teacher_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n or_o any_o other_o claim_v a_o visible_a and_o mediate_v call_v from_o the_o apostle_n time_n convey_v through_o a_o

also_o show_v out_o of_o augustine_n epi._n 48._o another_o fault_n we_o find_v in_o the_o student_n argument_n that_o suppose_v water-baptism_n have_v be_v command_v to_o the_o apostle_n by_o christ_n matth._n 28._o which_o yet_o we_o altogether_o deny_v it_o insinuate_v that_o it_o be_v as_o long_o to_o continue_v as_o christ_n presence_n with_o his_o church_n for_o if_o teach_v have_v

national_a teacher_n into_o all_o the_o world_n and_o teach_v the_o nation_n who_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o believe_v the_o gospel_n historical_o if_o they_o say_v this_o be_v a_o command_n to_o the_o apostle_n and_o not_o to_o they_o why_o be_v they_o so_o partial_a as_o to_o take_v one_o part_n to_o they_o and_o reject_v another_o but_o we_o shall_v now_o come_v to_o a_o more_o particular_a examination_n of_o their_o major_n we_o have_v tell_v they_o that_o the_o apostle_n baptize_v some_o with_o water_n out_o of_o a_o condescendency_n as_o paul_n circumcise_v timothy_n and_o not_o from_o that_o command_n matth._n 28._o which_o say_v nothing_o of_o water-baptism_n their_o first_o reason_n against_o this_o be_v they_o shall_v have_v baptise_a with_o water_n of_o their_o own_o will_n and_o without_o any_o sufficient_a authority_n but_o we_o deny_v this_o consequence_n and_o they_o themselves_o have_v furnish_v we_o with_o a_o sufficient_a answer_n where_o they_o say_v paul_n circumcise_v timothy_n but_o not_o without_o a_o command_n for_o the_o law_n of_o charity_n and_o other_o general_a precept_n oblige_v paul_n so_o to_o do_v though_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n indifferent_a of_o itself_o the_o same_o we_o say_v as_o to_o their_o baptise_v with_o water_n the_o jew_n have_v so_o great_a a_o esteem_n of_o water-baptism_n and_o think_v it_o necessary_a the_o apostle_n use_v it_o although_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n indifferent_a of_o itself_o after_o christ_n ascension_n and_o give_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o law_n of_o charity_n and_o other_o general_a precept_n oblige_v they_o but_o this_o prove_v not_o that_o the_o apostle_n have_v any_o command_n from_o matth._n 28._o or_o any_o such_o command_n any_o where_o else_o that_o make_v water-baptism_n of_o itself_o to_o be_v a_o necessary_a duty_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o whereas_o they_o query_n will_n g._n k._n grant_v that_o it_o be_v once_o lively_a we_o answer_v yes_o under_o john_n yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o it_o be_v to_o continue_v because_o john_n have_v no_o commission_n to_o the_o nation_n but_o only_o to_o the_o jew_n and_o that_o the_o apostle_n baptise_a whole_a family_n and_o thousand_o if_o they_o so_o do_v will_v not_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v necessary_a of_o itself_o more_o than_o that_o circumcision_n be_v and_o yet_o even_o then_o many_o thousand_o of_o believe_a jew_n be_v zealous_a for_o circumcision_n see_v act._n 21_o 20_o 21._o yea_o many_o bishop_n of_o jerusalem_n be_v circumcise_v after_o this_o as_o eusebius_n relat_n the_o reason_n therefore_o be_v that_o people_n be_v zealous_a of_o water-baptism_n because_o of_o john_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n condescend_v to_o it_o out_o of_o the_o law_n of_o charity_n another_o question_n they_o make_v where_o be_v water_n baptism_n bury_v we_o answer_v where_o the_o other_o shadow_n be_v bury_v for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o shadow_n and_o carnal_a ordinance_n heb._n 9_o 10._o the_o greek_a word_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d again_o the_o true_a water_n baptism_n have_v be_v out_o of_o use_v all_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostasy_n for_o the_o apostate_n church_n have_v have_v no_o true_a baptism_n and_o so_o in_o that_o respect_n it_o have_v be_v bury_v and_o be_v but_o a_o shadow_n be_v not_o to_o be_v raise_v up_o again_o and_o it_o be_v
