no_o need_n to_o make_v choice_n of_o a_o place_n where_o there_o be_v much_o water_n a_o little_a water_n will_v have_v serve_v the_o turn_n especial_o if_o it_o have_v be_v by_o sprinkle_v as_o

and_o here_o i_o need_v not_o multiply_v many_o scripture_n though_o it_o be_v a_o point_n the_o truth_n of_o which_o have_v be_v much_o oppose_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o poin●_n lie_v so_o full_a

not_o disciple_v to_o christ_n by_o the_o word_n that_o be_v by_o actual_a instruction_n ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v be_v all_o insignificant_a unless_o they_o can_v prove_v it_o by_o this_o very_a text_n if_o their_o commission_n do_v not_o warrant_v they_o to_o baptize_v such_o as_o be_v not_o disciple_v to_o christ_n by_o the_o word_n there_o be_v no_o text_n in_o all_o the_o new_a

thereof_o first_o that_o disciple_n be_v the_o subject_n of_o baptism_n mark_v 16._o 16._o he_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v baptize_v shall_v be_v save_v this_o be_v the_o same_o commission_n and_o

have_v not_o one_o precedent_n in_o all_o the_o scripture_n of_o any_o one_o person_n that_o ever_o be_v baptize_v till_o such_o time_n as_o they_o do_v believe_v or_o be_v disciple_v unto_o christ_n by_o the_o word_n the_o first_o precedent_n that_o i_o shall_v offer_v be_v those_o that_o be_v baptize_v

for_o though_o they_o seem_v to_o be_v all_o confident_a that_o child_n be_v the_o subject_n according_a to_o the_o rule_n yet_o they_o be_v great_o divide_v who_o child_n they_o be_v that_o be_v the_o right_a subject_n according_a to_o the_o rule_n some_o will_v baptize_v all_o child_n who_o parent_n make_v a_o verbal_a profession_n of_o christ_n though_o their_o conversation_n do_v utter_o destroy_v their_o profession_n a_o second_o sort_n will_v baptize_v all_o except_a bastard_n a_o three_o sort_n will_v baptize_v none_o but_o such_o who_o parent_n be_v true_a believer_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o charity_n a_o four_o sort_n will_v baptize_v none_o but_o such_o who_o parent_n one_o or_o both_o be_v in_o communion_n with_o themselves_o here_o be_v four_o opinion_n and_o there_o be_v but_o one_o truth_n therefore_o three_o of_o these_o must_v needs_o err_v either_o they_o be_v too_o large_a or_o too_o short_a in_o their_o judgement_n and_o i_o do_v not_o in_o the_o least_o question_n but_o the_o four_o be_v in_o a_o error_n also_o he_o that_o be_v most_o strict_a in_o the_o point_n of_o infant-baptism_n be_v too_o large_a there_o be_v neither_o precept_n nor_o precedent_n for_o his_o practice_n 2._o consider_v if_o you_o baptize_v a_o wrong_n subject_a you_o do_v it_o in_o your_o own_o name_n not_o in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n my_o meaning_n be_v you_o do_v it_o by_o your_o own_o authority_n not_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o christ_n have_v no_o commission_n from_o he_o for_o what_o you_o do_v 3._o consider_v it_o be_v a_o bold_a attempt_n for_o minister_n to_o say_v i_o baptize_v thou_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n if_o the_o subject_n be_v not_o a_o disciple_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v like_o set_v the_o broad_a seal_n of_o heaven_n to_o a_o patent_n of_o their_o own_o draw_v up_o 4._o minister_n must_v give_v a_o account_n of_o their_o stewardship_n another_o day_n the_o book_n shall_v be_v open_v and_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v judge_v out_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n according_a as_o his_o work_n have_v be_v rev._n 20._o 11._o then_o the_o commission_n will_v be_v lay_v open_a once_o more_o and_o minister_n must_v be_v try_v whether_o they_o have_v observe_v christ_n order_n first_o to_o disciple_n and_o then_o to_o baptize_v 2._o i_o will_v caution_n minister_n to_o beware_v they_o do_v not_o mistake_v the_o form_n of_o administration_n and_o make_v use_n of_o sprinkle_v instead_o of_o dip_v one_a consider_v there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o minister_n that_o do_v either_o mistake_n or_o alter_v and_o change_v the_o form_n some_o there_o be_v that_o do_v grant_v that_o the_o word_n in_o the_o commission_n signify_v to_o dip_v and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o primitive_a practice_n that_o christ_n and_o john_n do_v baptize_v by_o dip_v that_o yet_o make_v use_n of_o sprinkle_v instead_o of_o dip_v because_o we_o be_v under_o a_o cold_a climate_n and_o allege_v this_o for_o their_o practice_n that_o god_n will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_n and_o that_o where_o moral_a precept_n and_o positive_a precept_n do_v interfere_v there_o positive_a precept_n must_v give_v place_n as_o when_o david_n eat_v of_o the_o shewbread_n and_o the_o disciple_n pluck_v the_o ear_n of_o corn_n upon_o the_o sabbath-day_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o such_o as_o do_v think_v it_o good_a to_o alter_v the_o form_n of_o baptism_n from_o dip_v to_o sprinkle_v under_o this_o consideration_n have_v best_a to_o consider_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a to_o alter_v their_o form_n of_o word_n too_o and_o say_v i_o rantize_n thou_o instead_o of_o i_o baptize_v thou_o that_o so_o they_o may_v speak_v truth_n in_o what_o they_o say_v see_v they_o do_v it_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 2._o if_o the_o coldness_n of_o the_o climate_n be_v such_o that_o it_o will_v not_o admit_v of_o dip_v why_o do_v you_o do_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o room_n thereof_o where_o be_v your_o authority_n for_o that_o you_o be_v to_o baptize_v if_o you_o do_v any_o thing_n it_o be_v not_o leave_v to_o your_o discretion_n which_o of_o these_o shall_v be_v do_v by_o you_o this_o be_v to_o rantize_n in_o your_o own_o name_n 3._o i_o grant_v that_o in_o some_o case_n positive_a precept_n have_v give_v place_n when_o they_o have_v interfere_v with_o moral_n but_o this_o be_v no_o where_o make_v a_o general_a rule_n for_o sometime_o moral_a precept_n have_v give_v place_n to_o positive_a as_o when_o god_n command_v abraham_n to_o offer_v up_o his_o son_n isaac_n a_o burnt-offering_a the_o moral_a precept_n thou_o shall_v not_o kill_v give_v place_n to_o the_o positive_a 4._o when_o positive_a precept_n have_v give_v place_n to_o moral_n it_o have_v be_v in_o some_o case_n of_o exigency_n that_o have_v sudden_o fall_v out_o where_o in_o a_o little_a time_n the_o subject_n may_v return_v to_o his_o duty_n unto_o the_o positive_a precept_n again_o but_o if_o the_o positive_a precept_n to_o dip_v must_v give_v place_n to_o the_o moral_a because_o of_o the_o coldness_n of_o the_o climate_n we_o shall_v never_o have_v opportunity_n to_o return_v to_o our_o duty_n to_o the_o positive_a precept_n more_o because_o our_o climate_n will_v never_o alter_v it_o will_v be_v always_o cold_a and_o so_o the_o positive_a precept_n to_o dip_v will_v be_v of_o no_o more_o use_n to_o we_o than_o the_o altar_n that_o be_v build_v on_o the_o other_o side_n of_o jordan_n be_v to_o they_o which_o be_v not_o build_v to_o offer_v sacrifice_n thereon_o but_o to_o be_v a_o witness_n of_o what_o be_v former_o do_v josh_n 22._o 28._o so_o the_o positive_a precept_n for_o dip_v shall_v only_o stand_v as_o a_o monument_n of_o what_o be_v do_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n 5._o it_o be_v but_o a_o beg_a the_o question_n in_o this_o case_n to_o say_v that_o the_o positive_a precept_n do_v interfere_v with_o the_o moral_a no_o instance_n can_v be_v give_v of_o any_o one_o person_n disciple_v to_o christ_n that_o ever_o sustain_v the_o
