that_o be_v grant_v certain_o it_o be_v very_o reasonable_a to_o admit_v they_o to_o baptism_n argument_n viii_o to_o who_o christ_n grant_v imposition_n of_o hand_n to_o they_o be_v belong_v

here_o to_o introduce_v scripture_n and_o christ_n example_n it_o be_v between_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n as_o between_o superior_a and_o inferior_a minister_n in_o the_o church_n christ_n exercise_v the_o chief_a they_o the_o other_o office_n in_o the_o church_n and_o ministry_n christ_n baptise_a none_n himself_o the_o apostle_n baptise_a 4.2_o john_n 4.2_o and_o he_o confirm_v or_o lay_v hand_n on_o the_o baptise_a so_o that_o if_o christ_n grant_v imposition_n of_o hand_n to_o child_n it_o in_o the_o order_n of_o ordinance_n presuppose_v their_o baptism_n or_o cap_n city_n

superior_a of_o the_o truth_n of_o that_o doctrine_n into_o which_o the_o person_n be_v baptise_a by_o a_o inferior_a minister_n and_o also_o a_o testify_a of_o the_o receive_v the_o baptise_a person_n into_o christ_n church_n 3._o the_o very_a anabaptist_n practise_v imposition_n of_o hand_n after_o baptism_n as_o likewise_o do_v the_o apostle_n and_o all_o christian_a church_n do_v so_o that_o from_o the_o practice_n of_o themselves_o i_o presume_v they_o will_v grant_v those_o to_o have_v a_o right_n to_o baptism_n that_o be_v capable_a of_o be_v admit_v to_o the_o other_o
