which_o relate_v to_o discipline_n the_o first_o be_v concern_v the_o baptism_n of_o st._n john_n whether_o it_o be_v from_o heaven_n or_o from_o earth_n he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v from_o heaven_n because_o it_o be_v ordain_v by_o heaven_n however_o that_o it_o do_v not_o bestow_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v heavenly_a but_o that_o it_o make_v way_n for_o heavenly_a thing_n by_o bring_v we_o to_o

considerable_a objection_n take_v from_o what_o there_o may_v seem_v that_o the_o apostle_n of_o who_o salvation_n no_o doubt_n can_v be_v make_v be_v never_o baptise_a to_o this_o he_o answer_v that_o possible_o they_o may_v have_v be_v baptise_a though_o we_o find_v no_o mention_n of_o it_o and_o in_o the_o second_o place_n that_o that_o familiarity_n which_o they_o have_v with_o jesus_n christ_n the_o greatness_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o the_o ardency_n of_o their_o charity_n may_v supply_v in_o they_o the_o defect_n of_o baptism_n since_o jesus_n christ_n have_v promise_v the_o

if_o a_o man_n be_v not_o bear_v again_o of_o water_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n do_v invincible_o establish_v the_o necessity_n of_o baptism_n the_o three_o question_n be_v whether_o one_o may_v baptise_v more_o than_o once_o he_o say_v express_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o baptism_n that_o it_o never_o ought_v to_o be_v reiterated_a he_o except_v however_o the_o baptism_n of_o heretic_n who_o say_v he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o give_v it_o because_o they_o have_v it_o not_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o we_o have_v a_o rule_n among_o we_o to_o rebaptise_a they_o he_o add_v that_o martyrdom_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o second_o baptism_n which_o be_v instead_o of_o the_o baptism_n of_o water_n when_o any_o person_n have_v not_o
