to_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v carnal_a ordinance_n for_o the_o law_n be_v not_o of_o faith_n but_o the_o man_n which_o do_v it_o shall_v live_v in_o it_o but_o the_o gospel_n be_v faith_n and_o that_o which_o require_v faith_n in_o all_o that_o come_v to_o god_n through_o it_o for_o as_o say_v the_o eunuch_n see_v here_o be_v water_n what_o hinder_v i_o to_o be_v

that_o through_o faith_n it_o be_v that_o we_o stand_v in_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o new_a covenant_n rom._n 5.1_o 2_o 3._o and_o so_o much_o brief_o to_o the_o seven_o reason_n to_o prove_v believe_a man_n and_o woman_n to_o be_v the_o only_a subject_n fit_a for_o baptism_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o 8._o reason_n which_o be_v reas_n 8._o because_o baptism_n represent_v the_o new_a birth_n and_o be_v a_o demonstration_n to_o the_o world_n that_o the_o person_n baptize_v be_v new_a bear_v of_o water_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o be_v significant_o call_v the_o wash_n in_o regeneration_n and_o renew_v the_o holy_a ghost_n titus_n 3.5_o which_o show_v that_o they_o only_o be_v to_o be_v baptize_v which_o be_v new_o bear_v and_o thereby_o to_o represent_v to_o the_o world_n the_o work_n of_o god_n upon_o their_o soul_n that_o as_o they_o have_v their_o heart_n sprinkle_v from_o a_o evil_a conscience_n so_o they_o represent_v it_o by_o have_v their_o body_n wash_v with_o pure_a water_n not_o that_o the_o water_n itself_o as_o bare_o consider_v water_n be_v pure_a no_o but_o the_o command_v of_o god_n and_o his_o ordinance_n be_v pure_a enlighten_v the_o eye_n and_o so_o to_o the_o pure_a all_o thing_n be_v pure_a and_o so_o the_o water_n in_o baptism_n may_v be_v call_v pure_a it_o be_v a_o pure_a ordinance_n and_o represent_v a_o pure_a work_n of_o god_n wrought_v in_o the_o soul_n and_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o our_o blind_a priest_n give_v thanks_o to_o god_n when_o they_o have_v strew_v or_o sprinkle_v a_o little_a water_n on_o a_o child_n face_n that_o the_o child_n be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o as_o though_o baptism_n confer_v grace_n which_o if_o so_o doubtless_o simon_n magus_n also_o have_v not_o be_v in_o the_o gall_n of_o bitterness_n after_o baptism_n unless_o he_o can_v and_z have_v fell_a from_o grace_n o_o you_o blind_a guide_n what_o can_v you_o declare_v a_o person_n to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o

preach_v to_o you_o tell_v they_o if_o they_o will_v not_o repent_v and_o believe_v and_o such_o like_a thing_n they_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o yet_o deny_v any_o fall_n from_o grace_n what_o kind_n of_o strange_a confuse_a doctrine_n be_v this_o what_o half_o a_o hour_n a-go_a a_o child_n of_o wrath_n but_o now_o be_v sprinkle_v it_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o and_o a_o heir_n to_o

how_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o wise_a come_v to_o be_v so_o confound_v only_a god_n have_v confound_v the_o language_n of_o the_o bvilder_n of_o babel_n and_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o their_o language_n be_v so_o confound_v take_v heed_n therefore_o of_o building_n of_o a_o way_n to_o heaven_n of_o your_o own_o invention_n but_o to_o pass_v this_o discourse_n you_o may_v see_v that_o baptism_n represent_v a_o new_a birth_n and_o therefore_o the_o person_n baptize_v must_v first_o be_v new_a bear_v for_o that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n and_o that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n be_v spiritual_a therefore_o believer_n which_o be_v bear_v again_o be_v the_o only_a fit_a subject_n of_o baptism_n and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o 9_o reason_n to_o prove_v believer_n the_o only_a subject_n sit_v for_o baptism_n which_o be_v reas_n 9_o because_o baptism_n be_v a_o visible_a manifestation_n of_o a_o covenant_n make_v between_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n whereby_o the_o soul_n visible_o put_v off_o the_o old_a man_n viz._n the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n christ_n jesus_n in_o righteousness_n and_o

the_o galatian_n gal._n 3.27_o that_o as_o many_o as_o be_v baptize_v unto_o christ_n have_v put_v on_o christ_n which_o show_v that_o baptism_n be_v a_o visible_a put_n on_o the_o lord_n christ_n

thou_o but_o shall_v pass_v to_o some_o few_o reason_n to_o prove_v man_n whole_o mortal_a and_o the_o first_o be_v reas_n 1._o first_o because_o christ_n die_v soul_n and_o body_n to_o purchase_v our_o soul_n and_o body_n from_o the_o grave_n and_o if_o christ_n soul_n die_v it_o be_v real_o to_o that_o end_n that_o our_o soul_n may_v not_o lie_v in_o the_o grave_n and_o if_o we_o have_v dye_v only_o in_o body_n than_o christ_n have_v dye_v only_o in_o body_n but_o the_o whole_a man_n be_v mortal_a and_o return_v to_o dust_n christ_n also_o pour_v out_o his_o soul_n to_o death_n and_o make_v his_o soul_n a_o offering_n for_o sin_n as_o say_v the_o prophet_n isa_n 53.10_o when_o thou_o shall_v make_v his_o soul_n a_o offering_n for_o sin_n he_o shall_v see_v his_o seed_n mark_v that_o he_o shall_v prolong_v his_o day_n and_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o lord_n shall_v prosper_v in_o his_o hand_n 12._o because_o he_o have_v pour_v out_o his_o soul_n to_o death_n and_o he_o be_v number_v with_o the_o stranger_n and_o he_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o etc._n etc._n from_o hence_o we_o see_v that_o christ_n soul_n die_v that_o we_o may_v live_v again_o and_o not_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o grave_n which_o prove_v that_o our_o soul_n be_v mortal_a and_o die_v and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o second_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o whole_a man_n be_v mortal_a which_o be_v reas_n 2._o second_o because_o if_o man_n body_n be_v mortal_a and_o that_o die_v and_o his_o soul_n immortal_a &_o that_o live_v than_o man_n have_v two_o life_n &_o two_o distinct_a

that_o the_o soul_n be_v in_o some_o place_n to_o be_v understand_v blood_n be_v clear_a because_o the_o life_n or_o blood_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v all_o one_o in_o many_o place_n and_o so_o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n make_v his_o soul_n a_o offering_n for_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v his_o life_n or_o more_o proper_o his_o blood_n for_o without_o blood_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o also_o i_o have_v before_o show_v that_o the_o greek_a word_n soul_n bear_v such_o a_o signification_n as_o blood_n and_o if_o so_o it_o be_v very_o proper_a for_o the_o soul_n viz._n blood_n to_o cry_v for_o vengeance_n for_o so_o do_v abel_n blood_n cry_v for_o vengeance_n against_o cain_n and_o also_o christ_n blood_n do_v cry_v for_o vengeance_n against_o such_o as_o be_v guilty_a of_o it_o by_o trample_v it_o under_o foot_n although_o it_o do_v speak_v for_o the_o penitent_a better_a thing_n than_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n and_o thus_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v that_o sixth_o chapter_n of_o the_o revelation_n that_o after_o the_o red_a horse_n and_o he_o that_o sit_v upon_o he_o with_o the_o great_a sword_n have_v take_v peace_n from_o the_o earth_n then_o john_n see_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o just_a one_o lie_v under_o the_o altar_n table_n that_o be_v the_o place_n where_o they_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n or_o where_o they_o offer_v up_o their_o blood_n or_o live_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o christ_n sake_n and_o the_o testimony_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o that_o viz._n blood_n cry_v for_o vengeance_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o john_n see_v and_o declare_v when_o he_o say_v i_o see_v the_o soul_n which_o be_v slay_v for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o testimony_n which_o they_o hold_v and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o next_o and_o last_o objection_n which_o be_v draw_v from_o the_o 1_o pet._n 3.18_o 19_o in_o these_o word_n object_n 6._o by_o which_o he_o go_v and_o preach_v to_o the_o spirit_n in_o prison_n therefore_o there_o be_v a_o immortal_a soul_n answ_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o the_o meaning_n of_o this_o place_n be_v no_o other_o but_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n do_v

conclusion_n that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o quicken_v that_o preach_v to_o the_o spirit_n who_o be_v disobedient_a in_o the_o day_n of_o noah_n and_o now_o in_o prison_n but_o it_o be_v the_o

his_o flesh_n with_o his_o eye_n and_o not_o other_o shall_v he_o see_v christ_n his_o redeemer_n in_o the_o latter_a day_n stand_v upon_o the_o earth_n who_o he_o shall_v behold_v for_o himself_o

in_o this_o text_n there_o be_v these_o two_o thing_n considerable_a the_o first_o be_v that_o such_o as_o sleep_v shall_v awake_v and_o second_o the_o place_n where_o that_o they_o sleep_v and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o dust_n and_o three_o that_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v spiritual_o that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o awake_v out_o of_o a_o state_n of_o a_o sleep_n of_o sin_n to_o righteousness_n because_o some_o of_o those_o that_o awake_v do_v awake_a to_o everlasting_a shame_n and_o contempt_n which_o can_v be_v take_v in_o a_o spiritual_a fence_n for_o i_o hope_v no_o man_n be_v so_o

the_o seven_o reason_n to_o prove_v the_o resurrection_n which_o be_v reas_n 7._o seven_o because_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o the_o dead_a in_o christ_n shall_v rise_v first_o now_o this_o can_v

that_o juncture_n of_o time_n and_o of_o those_o ordinance_n under_o the_o law_n and_o not_o of_o gospel_n ordinance_n read_v vers_fw-la 7._o where_o he_o say_v that_o their_o burn_a offering_n and_o their_o sacrifice_n shall_v be_v acceptable_a upon_o his_o altar_n the_o which_o if_o i_o well_o understand_v it_o relate_v to_o the_o ordinance_n under_o the_o law_n which_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v
