the_o baptism_n of_o repentance_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o there_o the_o head_n who_o be_v free_a from_o sin_n be_v baptise_a for_o the_o body_n which_o be_v full_a of_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v fulfil_v all_o righteousness_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a honour_n to_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n that_o christ_n though_o in_o reference_n to_o our_o flesh_n more_o than_o his_o own_o submit_v himself_o to_o it_o thus_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n be_v very_o honourable_a and_o of_o high_a account_n in_o its_o time_n so_o that_o the_o very_a disciple_n of_o christ_n take_v it_o up_o and_o christ_n himself_o suffer_v they_o because_o john_n baptism_n be_v the_o sign_n and_o forerunner_n of_o his_o and_o because_o the_o time_n of_o his_o own_o baptism_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v but_o christ_n himself_o use_v it_o not_o as_o john_n witness_v chap._n 4._o 2._o saying_n jesus_n himself_o baptise_a not_o but_o his_o disciple_n to_o wit_n with_o john_n baptism_n which_o be_v water-baptism_n for_o it_o become_v not_o the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o baptise_v with_o a_o creature_n nor_o the_o lord_n of_o all_o to_o use_v the_o baptism_n of_o a_o servant_n and_o thus_o have_v show_v how_o honourable_a john_n baptism_n be_v in_o it_o self_n wherein_o i_o conceive_v i_o have_v not_o do_v he_o though_o a_o servant_n the_o

show_v that_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n how_o honourable_a and_o excellent_a soever_o be_v yet_o far_o beneath_o and_o below_o christ_n yea_o and_o most_o weak_a and_o imperfect_a in_o comparison_n of_o he_o for_o first_o john_n baptism_n be_v with_o a_o creature_n with_o the_o element_n of_o water_n for_o the_o creature_n can_v baptise_v but_o with_o the_o creature_n that_o be_v john_n with_o water_n and_o so_o this_o be_v far_o beneath_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n by_o god_n the_o work_n of_o the_o father_n by_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o son_n

ever_o and_o so_o it_o be_v far_o beneath_o christ_n which_o reach_v the_o soul_n the_o baptism_n of_o john_n be_v the_o baptism_n of_o body_n but_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n the_o baptism_n of_o

of_o john_n be_v but_o a_o sign_n and_o ceremony_n though_o it_o have_v more_o life_n and_o light_n in_o it_o than_o any_o of_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o law_n as_o be_v near_o to_o christ_n and_o

not_o give_v the_o spirit_n one_o drop_n of_o the_o spirit_n yea_o some_o who_o be_v baptise_a with_o john_n baptism_n do_v not_o know_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n perfect_o that_o be_v have_v no_o

or_o no_o as_o those_o twelve_o disciple_n act_n 19_o much_o less_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n second_o neither_o do_v it_o give_v repentance_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n for_o what_o be_v the_o plunge_a of_o a_o man_n in_o cold_a water_n towards_o repentance_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o these_o be_v the_o work_n of_o christ_n own_o baptism_n which_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o no_o man_n can_v repent_v of_o sin_n but_o by_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o his_o heart_n which_o be_v the_o work_n of_o that_o spirit_n which_o be_v give_v in_o christ_n baptism_n neither_o can_v any_o remit_v sin_n but_o god_n our_o sin_n be_v never_o forgive_v by_o god_n till_o god_n dwell_v in_o we_o through_o jesus_n christ_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n so_o that_o repentance_n be_v give_v and_o sin_n forgive_v not_o in_o hope_n only_o in_o john_n baptism_n but_o real_o and_o true_o in_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o real_a baptism_n of_o repentance_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n three_o neither_o do_v it_o give_v entrance_n into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v a_o spiritual_a kingdom_n and_o no_o earthly_a or_o corporal_a thing_n can_v give_v entrance_n into_o it_o the_o baptism_n in_o the_o water_n of_o jordan_n can_v deliver_v no_o man_n up_o into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n but_o the_o baptism_n in_o that_o river_n that_o make_v glad_a the_o city_n of_o god_n psal._n 46._o 4._o in_o that_o river_n clear_a as_o crystal_n that_o proceed_v from_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n

new_a world_n or_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n now_o in_o all_o these_o regard_v it_o appear_v that_o john_n baptism_n do_v not_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o than_o that_o only_o have_v be_v sufficient_a and_o there_o have_v be_v no_o need_n of_o christ_n to_o come_v and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n as_o it_o be_v distinct_a from_o christ_n so_o it_o be_v far_o inferior_a to_o his._n and_o therefore_o great_a have_v be_v the_o mistake_n of_o many_o for_o several_a age_n who_o have_v make_v john_n baptism_n equal_a to_o christ_n for_o what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o make_v the_o servant_n equal_a to_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o set_v down_o the_o creature_n in_o the_o throne_n of_o the_o only_o beget_v of_o the_o father_n tea_n and_o it_o be_v the_o quite_o pervert_v of_o john_n office_n for_o john_n be_v to_o be_v a_o burn_a and_o shine_a light_n to_o usher_v in_o christ_n the_o true_a light_n he_o be_v to_o be_v as_o the_o morningstar_n to_o usher_v in_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o righteousness_n and_o be_v not_o to_o be_v so_o much_o cloud_n and_o darkness_n to_o obscure_v he_o he_o be_v but_o to_o point_v out_o christ_n and_o depart_v again_o and_o not_o to_o sit_v in_o equal_a glory_n with_o he_o on_o his_o throne_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n john_n say_v he_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o bear_v his_o shoe_n and_o therefore_o they_o do_v not_o well_o who_o have_v prepare_v a_o equal_a crown_n for_o he_o with_o christ_n who_o be_v king_n of_o king_n and_o lord_n of_o lord_n wherefore_o we_o must_v take_v great_a heed_n that_o we_o do_v not_o so_o magnify_v john_n office_n as_o to_o entrench_v on_o christ_n and_o to_o make_v the_o son_n out_o of_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n to_o take_v up_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n a_o servant_n and_o to_o administer_v one_o entire_o his_o own_o sure_o this_o will_v not_o have_v be_v suitable_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n the_o three_o thing_n i_o propound_v to_o speak_v to_o touch_v john_n baptism_n be_v the_o time_n of_o its_o durance_n or_o continuance_n and_o that_o be_v but_o very_o short_a for_o john_n baptism_n as_o all_o the_o ceremony_n of_o moses_n be_v but_o for_o a_o time_n yea_o this_o be_v near_o the_o truth_n and_o substance_n than_o they_o be_v of_o less_o duration_n as_o the_o morningstar_n though_o bright_a than_o the_o rest_n of_o those_o heavenly_a light_n shine_v less_o while_n than_o they_o because_o the_o hasty_a appearance_n of_o the_o sun_n swallow_v it_o up_o and_o so_o john_n baptism_n be_v of_o great_a use_n a_o little_a before_o christ_n manifestation_n to_o israel_n and_o continue_v till_o the_o time_n of_o his_o ascension_n and_o then_o when_o christ_n
