likewise_o call_v several_a other_o rite_n sacrament_n and_o therefore_o in_o their_o opinion_n to_o bind_v and_o oblige_v ourselves_o to_o our_o duty_n be_v not_o peculiar_a to_o those_o sign_n which_o we_o now_o only_o call_v sacrament_n second_o i_o own_o there_o be_v such_o a_o oath_n make_v at_o baptism_n which_o bind_v and_o oblige_v we_o to_o be_v faithful_a and_o thereupon_o we_o be_v

if_o we_o shall_v do_v it_o by_o write_v and_o seal_v it_o be_v no_o harm_n which_o will_v both_o be_v bind_v and_o oblige_v sign_n on_o our_o part_n yet_o no_o sacrament_n or_o sinful_a human_a

have_v make_v a_o covenant_n with_o i_o by_o sacrifice_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v two_o thing_n in_o sacrifice_n first_o the_o offering_n of_o they_o to_o god_n as_o a_o sign_n of_o our_o homage_n and_o duty_n which_o we_o owe_v he_o as_o we_o pay_v tribute_n to_o the_o king_n and_o this_o be_v the_o offerer_n act_n and_o full_o signify_v his_o duty_n and_o then_o there_o be_v god_n admit_v the_o offerer_n to_o feed_v on_o they_o after_o they_o be_v make_v he_o and_o this_o be_v god_n act_n and_o a_o sign_n of_o his_o favour_n and_o reconciliation_n to_o the_o person_n therefore_o sacrifice_n be_v sign_n of_o our_o duty_n to_o god_n as_o well_o as_o of_o his_o favour_n to_o we_o but_o the_o case_n be_v otherwise_o in_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord's-supper_n the_o offering_n that_o reconcile_v we_o to_o god_n be_v make_v by_o christ_n not_o by_o we_o and_o we_o be_v reconcile_v by_o virtue_n of_o that_o and_o the_o sacrament_n do_v only_o apply_v to_o we_o the_o wash_v or_o propitiation_n of_o christ_n blood_n and_o feed_v we_o as_o reconcile_v guest_n on_o his_o body_n and_o therefore_o be_v whole_o sign_n from_o god_n to_o we_o and_o other_o sign_n be_v necessary_a on_o our_o part_n to_o signify_v our_o duty_n and_o therefore_o the_o primitive_a christian_n bring_v meat_n and_o drink_n for_o a_o common_a feast_n at_o the_o lord_n supper_n to_o signify_v the_o sincerity_n of_o their_o love_n and_o testify_v it_o to_o the_o world_n and_o we_o do_v yet_o offer_v part_n of_o our_o substance_n for_o the_o relief_n of_o god_n servant_n at_o this_o sacrament_n both_o which_o be_v sign_n as_o well_o as_o instance_n of_o our_o duty_n and_o plain_o show_v that_o our_o duty_n be_v not_o so_o signify_v in_o the_o sacrament_n but_o other_o sign_n be_v necessary_a on_o our_o part_n and_o if_o a_o man_n who_o come_v to_o demand_v baptism_n shall_v as_o a_o sign_n and_o token_n of_o his_o resolution_n to_o renounce_v the_o devil_n the_o

of_o the_o sacrament_n that_o he_o be_v sincere_a in_o his_o submission_n by_o such_o sign_n and_o profession_n of_o repentance_n and_o of_o faith_n as_o be_v proper_a to_o signify_v they_o before_o they_o ought_v to_o admit_v he_o i_o own_o baptism_n be_v a_o bond_n and_o dedicate_v we_o to_o god_n service_n but_o it_o be_v a_o bond_n lay_v on_o we_o by_o god_n who_o require_v faith_n and_o
