child_n and_o that_o by_o water_n be_v mean_v baptism_n yet_o will_v it_o not_o follow_v that_o child_n can_v not_o be_v save_v without_o baptism_n because_o here_o be_v only_o mention_v make_v of_o

for_o your_o second_o answer_n i_o will_v prove_v that_o by_o water_n in_o this_o place_n allege_v be_v mean_v literal_a water_n it_o be_v plain_a the_o scripture_n call_v it_o water_n plain_a water_n

because_o there_o be_v much_o water_n there_o here_o by_o water_n be_v mean_v literal_a water_n and_o plain_a water_n and_o where_o can_v you_o find_v in_o the_o scripture_n especial_o in_o the_o

no_o reason_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v mean_v literal_a water_n here_o in_o the_o first_o verse_n because_o literal_a water_n be_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o 22_o and_o 23_o verse_n for_o those_o word_n

as_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o in_o the_o place_n allege_v by_o you_o water_n be_v take_v literal_o so_o may_v it_o be_v evidence_v that_o it_o be_v very_o frequent_a in_o the_o scripture_n to_o take_v
