in_o a_o fish_n pond_n overwhelm_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v it_o be_v the_o sound_n that_o fill_v the_o house_n and_o not_o the_o cleave_a tongue_n of_o fire_n which_o be_v the_o emblem_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o sure_o they_o be_v not_o overwhelm_v wi●h_o these_o but_o that_o promise_n be_v make_v good_a i_o will_v pour_v out_o my_o spirit_n act_n 2.17_o now_o the_o pour_v out_o of_o the_o spirit_n be_v frequent_o represent_v by_o pour_v out_o water_n is._n 44.3_o but_o several_a scripture_n be_v pretend_v for_o dip_v the_o most_o material_a be_v these_o 1._o mat._n 3.16_o jesus_n go_v up_o out_o of_o the_o water_n i_o answer_v he_o may_v according_a to_o the_o practice_n of_o those_o time_n go_v into_o the_o water_n to_o wash_v his_o

word_n with_o a_o parenthesis_n and_o jesus_n come_v from_o nazareth_n of_o galilee_n and_o be_v baptise_a of_o john_n to_o jordan_n 2._o another_o scripture_n be_v joh._n 3.23_o john_n baptise_a in_o

disciple_n may_v convenient_o together_o baptise_v or_o pour_v water_n on_o the_o multitude_n 3._o another_o scripture_n be_v act_n 8.38_o where_o philip_n and_o the_o eunuch_n be_v say_v both_o to_o go_v down_o into_o the_o water_n whence_o some_o will_v infer_v that_o the_o eunuch_n be_v dip_v i_o answer_v they_o may_v only_o go_v down_o to_o and_o come_v from_o the_o water_n so_o the_o greek_a may_v be_v render_v the_o water_n run_v in_o the_o valley_n b●t_o if_o man_n will_v insist_v on_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o text_n philip_n must_v dip_v himself_o as_o well_o as_o the_o eunuch_n for_o they_o both_o go_v down_o or_o they_o may_v go_v ankle_n deep_a and_o philip_n may_v pour_v water_n on_o his_o head_n or_o face_n either_o of_o these_o interp●etations_n be_v probable_a and_o therefore_o it_o can_v necessary_o be_v prove_v he_o be_v dip_v beside_o the_o unlikelihood_n that_o he_o be_v dip_v on_o a_o journey_n when_o perhaps_o he_o may_v have_v no_o clothes_n to_o change_v 4._o the_o principal_a scripture_n they_o boast_v of_o be_v rom._n 6.4_o be_v bury_v with_o christ_n in_o baptism_n whence_o they_o argue_v b●p●ism_n must_v represent_v a_o burial_n therefore_o the_o whole_a b●dy_n must_v be_v cover_v with_o water_n this_o text_n we_o have_v give_v a_o distinct_a answer_n to_o in_o our_o reflection_n on_o dr_n russel_n chap._n 2._o refl_fw-mi 12.13_o therefore_o thither_o i_o refer_v the_o reader_n and_o shall_v only_o say_v here_o 1._o it_o be_v no_o where_o say_v that_o baptism_n represent_v christ_n burial_n but_o only_o that_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o conform_v ourselves_o thereby_o to_o christ_n death_n burial_n and_o resurrection_n to_o die_v to_o sin_n and_o rise_v again_o to_o newness_n of_o life_n this_o we_o do_v whatever_o ri●e_v be_v use_v 2._o in_o our_o way_n if_o that_o will_v satisfy_v there_o be_v a_o representation_n of_o christ_n death_n the_o pour_v out_o of_o water_n denote_v the_o pour_v his_o blood_n or_o soul_n of_o his_o burial_n as_o the_o face_n the_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v put_v under_o the_o water_n of_o his_o resurrection_n when_o the_o child_n be_v take_v up_o and_o deliver_v again_o to_o its_o parent_n or_o o●●erers_n 3._o if_o they_o will_v keep_v strict_o to_o the_o significancy_n of_o a_o burial_n the_o person_n to_o be_v baptise_a must_v not_o walk_v into_o the_o water_n but_o be_v take_v up_o by_o the_o baptizer_n and_o cast_v down_o into_o it_o for_o indeed_o the_o difference_n between_o our_o way_n and_o they_o be_v only_o this_o we_o baptise_v the_o face_n and_o they_o baptise_v the_o head_n and_o shoulder_n too_o 4._o metaphor_n must_v not_o be_v stretch_v too_o far_o and_o let_v our_o brethren_n take_v heed_n how_o they_o stretch_v this_o expression_n so_o as_o to_o justify_v the_o practice_n of_o other_o that_o differ_v from_o they_o you_o read_v v_o 6._o our_o old_a man_n be_v crucified_a with_o christ._n h●●ce_n the_o romanist_n infer_v the_o necessity_n of_o cross_v in_o ba●●ism_n let_v not_o the_o metaphor_n therefore_o be_v stretch_v too_o ●ar_o 5._o there_o be_v many_o more_o scripture_n that_o have_v a_o allusion_n to_o sprinkle_v or_o pour_v water_n on_o the_o face_n thus_o we_o r●ad_v is._n 44.3_o i_o will_v pour_v water_n on_o he_o that_o be_v thirsty_a etc._n etc._n which_o be_v interpret_v of_o god_n pour_v out_o his_o spirit_n and_o blessing_n on_o the_o seed_n of_o believer_n so_o heb._n 10.22_o have_v your_o heart_n sprinkle_a from_o a_o evil_a conscience_n and_o your_o body_n wash_v with_o pure_a water_n and_o many_o other_o place_n so_o that_o our_o way_n most_o fair_o represent_v the_o death_n burial_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n together_o with_o the_o application_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o spirit_n and_o the_o anabaptist_n of_o amsterdam_n be_v so_o sensible_a of_o this_o that_o they_o general_o baptise_v by_o pour_v water_n upon_o the_o head_n 4._o there_o be_v great_a probability_n if_o not_o certainty_n that_o many_o be_v not_o dip_v in_o scripture_n time_n particular_o act_v 2.41_o we_o read_v of_o 3000_o baptise_a in_o part_n of_o a_o day_n and_o this_o be_v at_o jerusalem_n where_o there_o be_v no_o river_n but_o only_o the_o brook_n cedron_n beside_o these_o be_v either_o dip_v naked_a or_o with_o their_o clothes_n if_o naked_a this_o will_v be_v a_o unseemly_a sight_n and_o look_v as_o if_o they_o be_v full_a of_o new_a wine_n indeed_o though_o by_o the_o way_n i_o think_v that_o part_n that_o be_v baptise_a aught_o to_o be_v naked_a to_o represent_v our_o nakedness_n before_o god_n if_o with_o their_o clothes_n this_o will_v be_v as_o strange_a for_o it_o can_v be_v expect_v they_o bring_v clothes_n with_o they_o at_o that_o juncture_n and_o it_o will_v have_v be_v very_o unseemly_a to_o see_v so_o many_o person_n come_v out_o of_o the_o water_n in_o such_o a_o condition_n and_o go_v down_o to_o their_o house_n which_o may_v be_v at_o a_o great_a distance_n not_o to_o mention_v that_o it_o be_v hardly_o possible_a for_o the_o 12_o apostle_n if_o we_o shall_v add_v the_o 70_o disciple_n to_o they_o 〈◊〉_d y●●●he_a text_n mention_n not_o to_o dip_v 3000_o in_o so_o

other_o sacrament_n we_o be_v command_v to_o eat_v bread_n and_o drink_n wine_n in_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n so_o in_o this_o to_o be_v wash_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o

the_o water_n shall_v be_v apply_v whether_o by_o dip_v sprinkle_v or_o pour_v water_n on_o the_o face_n it_o may_v be_v equal_o pretend_v that_o we_o must_v eat_v and_o drink_v plentiful_o at_o the_o
