A81727	Gospel-Glory proclaimed before the sonnes of men, in the visible and invisible worship of God. Wherein the mystery of God in Christ, and his royall, spirituall government over the soules and bodies of his saints, is clearly discovered, plainly asserted, and faithfully vindicated, against the deceiver and his servants, who endeavour the cessation thereof, upon what pretence soever. / By Edward Drapes, an unworthy servant in the gospell of Christ.

the_o scripture_n admit_v of_o a_o threefold_a consideration_n first_o as_o it_o be_v a_o baptism_n of_o water_n second_o as_o it_o be_v a_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n three_o as_o it_o be_v a_o baptism_n of_o affliction_n 1._o the_o baptism_n of_o water_n we_o find_v mention_v in_o divers_a water_n e_o baptism_n water_n place_n as_o john_n 1._o 21._o act_n 8._o 38._o now_o this_o baptism_n

many_o day_n hence_o which_o be_v fulfil_v act_v 2._o there_o appear_v cleave_v tongue_n like_v as_o of_o fire_n and_o they_o sit_v upon_o each_o of_o they_o and_o they_o be_v all_o fill_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o begin_v to_o speak_v with_o other_o tongue_n as_o the_o spirit_n give_v they_o utterance_n this_o baptism_n be_v call_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o it_o be_v the_o only_a work_n of_o the_o spirit_n with_o which_o they_o be_v fill_v call_v the_o baptism_n of_o fire_n because_o of_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o like_o fire_n be_v a_o light_n to_o they_o that_o sit_v in_o darkness_n like_o fire_n because_o of_o its_o refine_n nature_n burn_v up_o that_o chaff_n and_o dross_n that_o be_v in_o they_o and_o make_v they_o more_o pure_a a_o baptism_n of_o fire_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o consume_a nature_n destroy_v the_o man_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v a_o fire_n that_o go_v out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n that_o burn_v up_o consume_v and_o destroy_v the_o stubble_n and_o chaff_n of_o antichrist_n yea_o of_o this_o baptism_n it_o be_v say_v there_o sit_v cleave_v tongue_n like_o fire_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o visible_o demonstrate_v the_o power_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o give_v they_o the_o gift_n of_o tongue_n or_o language_n whereby_o they_o can_v speak_v to_o all_o man_n in_o their_o several_a language_n wherein_o they_o be_v natural_o bear_v act_v 2._o 8._o now_o this_o be_v a_o visible_a glorious_a spiritual_a baptism_n the_o proper_a nature_n end_n and_o use_v of_o this_o be_v to_o crown_v the_o doctrine_n of_o jesus_n with_o a_o crown_n of_o glory_n to_o confirm_v spread_v abroad_o to_o all_o nation_n and_o exalt_v the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n and_o christ_n in_o his_o gospel_n this_o be_v that_o which_o amuse_v the_o world_n yea_o to_o hear_v the_o apostle_n speak_v with_o tongue_n they_o be_v confound_v amaze_a and_o mervail_v 7._o act_n 2._o 6._o 7._o great_o 3._o there_o be_v likewise_o a_o baptism_n of_o affliction_n or_o suffering_n affliction_n a_o baptism_n of_o affliction_n therefore_o say_v christ_n i_o have_v a_o baptism_n to_o be_v baptize_v withal_o and_o how_o be_o i_o straighten_v in_o my_o spirit_n till_o that_o be_v accomplish_v this_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o his_o death_n into_o which_o death_n we_o be_v baptize_v now_o this_o baptism_n hold_v forth_o to_o we_o our_o descend_v into_o misery_n as_o if_o we_o be_v overwhelm_v with_o misery_n and_o our_o ascend_n from_o it_o into_o glory_n we_o as_o christ_n do_v when_o he_o be_v in_o the_o world_n must_v take_v up_o his_o cross_n and_o follow_v he_o in_o affliction_n for_o we_o bear_v about_o in_o our_o body_n the_o die_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n i_o may_v here_o show_v you_o the_o sweet_a unity_n consent_n and_o harmony_n that_o be_v in_o these_o baptism_n and_o wherein_o they_o differ_v but_o you_o will_v see_v this_o more_o full_o if_o you_o consider_v what_o ensue_v but_o some_o may_v say_v it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v a_o baptism_n of_o water_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o qu._n fire_n and_o of_o affliction_n but_o be_v there_o not_o a_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n beside_o that_o baptism_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o fire_n which_o you_o say_v consist_v in_o new_a tongue_n and_o miraculous_a visible_a appearance_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n spirit_n upon_o the_o heart_n in_o believe_v and_o the_o like_a according_a to_o that_o in_o titus_n we_o be_v save_v by_o the_o

which_o he_o answ_n shed_v on_o

of_o their_o authority_n if_o the_o scripture_n be_v not_o to_o be_v believe_v above_o their_o word_n why_o do_v they_o seek_v to_o prove_v their_o matter_n from_o they_o nay_o which_o seem_v a_o wonder_n to_o i_o these_o very_a bruit_n for_o i_o can_v give_v they_o no_o fit_a name_n that_o deny_v the_o scripture_n do_v often_o time_n bring_v scripture_n to_o prove_v their_o denial_n of_o

the_o scripture_n that_o say_v god_n can_v lie_v and_o the_o like_a by_o which_o do_v they_o not_o set_v to_o their_o seal_n that_o god_n be_v true_a and_o the_o scripture_n his_o word_n yet_o a_o

will_v they_o prove_v their_o assertion_n from_o some_o undeniable_a principle_n from_o whence_o i_o pray_v you_o fetch_v they_o their_o principle_n it_o be_v either_o from_o nature_n or_o from_o

where_o be_v this_o grace_n make_v manifest_a and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o manifest_a who_o will_v believe_v they_o for_o the_o prove_v of_o doubtful_a thing_n be_v always_o by_o thing_n more_o know_v if_o it_o be_v make_v manifest_a sure_o than_o it_o be_v in_o the_o scripture_n well_o to_o conclude_v this_o consider_v that_o heavenly_a stile_n faithfulness_n in_o reprove_v as_o well_o great_a
