upon_o the_o throne_n make_v all_o thing_n new_a and_o this_o be_v a_o clear_a truth_n that_o all_o the_o church_n and_o church_n order_n of_o man_n as_o they_o call_v it_o be_v yet_o in_o babel_n they_o be_v all_o in_o confusion_n one_o with_o another_o &_o among_o themselves_o one_o say_v here_o be_v christ_n and_o another_o say_v there_o be_v christ_n one_o for_o one_o way_n another_z for_o

it_o shall_v bring_v peace_n among_o all_o luke_o 12._o 51._o isa_n 11._o consider_v a_o few_o particular_n wherein_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o babylon_n be_v not_o yet_o fall_v but_o stand_v still_o even_o to_o this_o day_n 1._o when_o god_n bring_v forth_o his_o great_a work_n in_o the_o latter_a day_n the_o wolf_n and_o the_o lamb_n shall_v dwell_v together_o in_o peace_n etc._n etc._n but_o now_o we_o be_v far_o from_o such_o a_o disposition_n for_o those_o who_o look_v like_o lamb_n and_o be_v so_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v they_o can_v dwell_v together_o in_o peace_n and_o love_n but_o be_v at_o great_a difference_n as_o well_o as_o the_o lamb_n and_o wolf_n but_o persecution_n shall_v come_v to_o a_o end_n in_o the_o latter_a day_n and_o not_o continue_v as_o before_o therefore_o look_v not_o for_o such_o a_o time_n now_o to_o come_v 2._o in_o that_o day_n the_o earth_n shall_v be_v full_a of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o it_o be_v now_o full_a of_o ignorance_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o all_o carnal_a principle_n and_o doctrine_n of_o man_n do_v witness_n with_o their_o work_n and_o action_n 3._o in_o that_o day_n god_n will_v get_v his_o people_n a_o name_n and_o a_o praise_n in_o all_o land_n where_o they_o have_v be_v put_v to_o shame_n but_o yet_o they_o be_v a_o reproach_n in_o all_o land_n therefore_o that_o day_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v 4._o in_o that_o day_n god_n will_v turn_v to_o his_o people_n one_o pure_a language_n wherein_o they_o shall_v all_o serve_v he_o with_o one_o consent_n and_o god_n will_v give_v they_o one_o heart_n and_o one_o way_n the_o lord_n shall_v be_v one_o and_o his_o name_n one_o etc._n etc._n but_o none_o of_o this_o be_v to_o be_v find_v for_o we_o see_v even_o among_o those_o that_o praise_n god_n there_o be_v many_o languague_n and_o they_o serve_v god_n according_a to_o their_o knowledge_n or_o ignorance_n in_o many_o way_n and_o there_o be_v no_o consent_v together_o therefore_o antichrist_n be_v not_o yet_o destroy_v &_o so_o we_o be_v yet_o in_o the_o wilderness_n &_o in_o babel_n egypt_n and_o sodom_n where_o our_o lord_n be_v crucify_a etc._n etc._n and_o as_o the_o great_a difference_n be_v between_o open_a profannesse_n and_o a_o form_n of_o godliness_n so_o now_o it_o be_v between_o the_o form_n and_o the_o power_n of_o godliness_n therefore_o the_o loftiness_n of_o man_n be_v not_o lay_v low_o nor_o the_o lord_n alone_o exalt_v 5._o the_o promise_n be_v that_o in_o that_o day_n the_o peace_n of_o god_n people_n shall_v be_v great_a but_o now_o it_o be_v not_o so_o for_o our_o division_n be_v now_o great_a and_o our_o peace_n little_a with_o man_n then_o none_o shall_v disturb_v nor_o make_v they_o afraid_a but_o now_o there_o be_v many_o disturber_n even_o against_o the_o clear_a truth_n therefore_o antichrist_n be_v not_o yet_o destroy_v but_o do_v oppose_v christ_n in_o spirit_n and_o so_o babel_n or_o confusion_n be_v still_o present_a therefore_o not_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o new_a earth_n the_o work_n of_o god_n in_o this_o world_n as_o be_v clear_a by_o many_o witness_n 6._o when_o babylon_n be_v fall_v the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v become_v the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o of_o his_o christ_n &_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v in_o another_o manner_n of_o way_n then_o before_o for_o all_o nation_n be_v at_o god_n dispose_n still_o even_o in_o the_o high_a of_o antichrist_n reign_v but_o we_o see_v not_o this_o yet_o fulfil_v for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n be_v still_o as_o they_o be_v man_n be_v unrighteous_a unholy_a without_o love_n pity_n and_o compassion_n to_o their_o fellow_n creature_n as_o they_o be_v some_o have_v thousand_o of_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o other_o want_v food_n and_o raiment_n etc._n etc._n this_o do_v not_o look_v like_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o new_a earth_n but_o like_o the_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n in_o the_o old_a tyrannical_a cruel_a and_o oppress_a kingdom_n of_o antichrist_n this_o look_v not_o like_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n but_o like_o self-love_n etc._n etc._n as_o in_o the_o epistle_n of_o james_n consider_v far_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v drive_v into_o the_o wilderness_n of_o antichrist_n kingdom_n during_o his_o reign_n and_o the_o outward_a court_n of_o the_o temple_n be_v give_v to_o the_o gentile_n during_o antichrist_n reign_n and_o i_o hope_v you_o know_v what_o this_o be_v therefore_o take_v not_o that_o unto_o yourselves_o that_o be_v give_v to_o the_o gentile_n

that_o so_o we_o shall_v serve_v sin_n no_o long_o let_v we_o once_o more_o brief_o consider_v of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n here_o v._o 3._o those_o that_o be_v baptize_v into_o jesus_n christ_n be_v baptize_v into_o his_o death_n therefore_o not_o into_o material_a water_n for_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n with_o the_o power_n and_o virtue_n thereof_o be_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v material_a water_n therefore_o the_o baptism_n here_o speak_v of_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o material_a water_n v._o 4._o we_o be_v bury_v with_o he_o by_o baptism_n into_o death_n therefore_o not_o into_o material_a water_n for_o death_n and_o water_n be_v not_o one_o but_o by_o virtue_n of_o our_o be_v baptize_v into_o death_n with_o christ_n so_o as_o christ_n be_v raise_v by_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n so_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n by_o virtue_n of_o our_o partake_n of_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o resurrection_n in_o this_o spiritual_a baptism_n which_o consist_v in_o power_n from_o on_o high_a v._o 5._o the_o apostle_n conclude_v it_o must_v so_o follow_v for_o if_o we_o have_v be_v plant_v together_o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o death_n we_o shall_v be_v also_o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o resurrection_n and_o here_o let_v we_o observe_v what_o he_o before_o call_v baptise_v into_o christ_n baptise_v into_o his_o death_n bury_v with_o he_o into_o death_n by_o baptism_n now_o he_o call_v plant_v together_o in_o the_o likeness_n of_o his_o death_n etc._n etc._n but_o material_a water_n can_v plant_v we_o into_o the_o likeness_n of_o christ_n death_n which_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o destroy_n of_o sin_n therefore_o the_o baptism_n here_o can_v be_v material_a water_n but_o it_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o only_o be_v able_a to_o destroy_v sin_n and_o all_o evil_a in_o we_o and_o to_o bring_v forth_o the_o image_n and_o likeness_n of_o christ_n in_o we_o in_o our_o new_a birth_n and_o so_o we_o see_v the_o commission_n be_v fulfil_v in_o change_a people_n from_o their_o own_o name_n and_o likeness_n and_o to_o bring_v forth_o the_o name_n and_o likeness_n of_o god_n in_o they_o 3._o again_o we_o have_v another_o testimony_n of_o the_o great_a effect_n of_o spirit_n baptism_n upon_o the_o corinthian_n 1_o cor._n 6._o 11._o v._o 9_o 10._o the_o apostle_n reckon_v up_o several_a work_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o reign_v in_o those_o that_o shall_v inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n v._o 11._o he_o tell_v they_o that_o some_o of_o they_o be_v such_o and_o he_o also_o tell_v they_o how_o they_o come_v to_o be_v change_v but_o you_o be_v wash_v but_o you_o be_v sanctify_v but_o you_o be_v justify_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o by_o the_o

wrought_v in_o those_o corinthian_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o god_n here_o be_v a_o testimony_n of_o the_o come_n forth_o of_o the_o word_n &_o

here_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n of_o eternal_a be_v come_v forth_o in_o power_n from_o on_o high_a be_v employ_v about_o this_o great_a work_n of_o wonder_n in_o wash_v cleanse_a purify_n

you_o may_v see_v a_o wash_n but_o not_o with_o material_a water_n but_o a_o wash_n in_o the_o pure_a river_n of_o water_n of_o life_n clear_a as_o crystal_n come_v forth_o from_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o life_n and_o sweetness_n and_o this_o water_n be_v only_o able_a to_o wash_v cleanse_v and_o sanctify_v soul_n and_o spirit_n from_o all_o sin_n and_o filthiness_n of_o flesh_n and_o

infinite_o righteous_a pure_a and_o holy_a god_n but_o we_o do_v ascribe_v the_o whole_a work_n hereof_o unto_o the_o mighty_a god_n in_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n which_o consist_v only_o in_o power_n from_o on_o high_a in_o spiritual_a wash_n in_o the_o pure_a river_n of_o live_a water_n which_o continue_v in_o we_o a_o well_o of_o water_n spring_v up_o unto_o

24._o 49._o if_o this_o be_v not_o a_o promise_n i_o know_v none_o now_o here_o you_o may_v read_v the_o truth_n that_o you_o do_v oppose_v and_o behold_v your_o own_o ignorance_n and_o sit_v down_o in_o silence_n and_o cover_v your_o lip_n for_o shame_n obj._n 19_o if_o no_o waterbaptism_n than_o no_o ministry_n nor_o no_o right_a calling_n to_o preach_v and_o we_o may_v as_o well_o deny_v one_o as_o the_o other_o etc._n etc._n answ_n 1._o here_o i_o say_v as_o you_o do_v though_o in_o another_o sense_n if_o we_o be_v not_o baptize_v with_o the_o spirit_n than_o we_o be_v no_o true_a minister_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o then_o we_o have_v no_o ground_n to_o preach_v so_o our_o ground_n to_o preach_v do_v arise_v from_o our_o be_v baptize_v though_o not_o with_o material_a water_n for_o i_o do_v affirm_v from_o scripture_n and_o reason_n that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v baptize_v in_o water_n and_o yet_o be_v as_o far_o from_o have_v any_o ground_n to_o preach_v that_o he_o may_v be_v a_o enemy_n to_o the_o true_a ministry_n of_o god_n in_o spirit_n and_o power_n from_o on_o high_a for_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v but_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v be_v throw_v into_o water_n and_o so_o baptize_v in_o water_n and_o we_o have_v example_n that_o simon_n magus_n be_v baptize_v with_o water_n and_o yet_o no_o right_a to_o preach_v 2._o though_o the_o apostle_n have_v receive_v a_o commission_n from_o christ_n to_o go_v and_o teach_v all_o nation_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o to_o practice_v it_o till_o they_o be_v endue_v with_o power_n from_o on_o high_a and_o now_o let_v i_o ask_v any_o of_o you_o or_o all_o of_o you_o who_o pretend_v a_o call_v to_o preach_v either_o from_o go_v into_o water_n or_o from_o man_n lay_n hand_n upon_o you_o yea_o from_o any_o external_a ordination_n which_o be_v from_o man_n whatsoever_o how_o you_o do_v dare_v to_o go_v and_o call_v yourselves_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o gospel_n etc._n etc._n from_o a_o bare_a outward_a calling_n and_o yet_o be_v without_o either_o a_o commission_n from_o christ_n or_o power_n from_o on_o high_a either_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o to_o go_v till_o they_o have_v both_o but_o you_o do_v go_v to_o teach_v without_o a_o commission_n or_o power_n from_o on_o high_a and_o what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o run_v before_o you_o be_v send_v but_o here_o i_o will_v not_o be_v mistake_v as_o if_o i_o be_v against_o all_o that_o do_v teach_v no_o i_o be_o real_o for_o all_o that_o do_v go_v forth_o in_o the_o strength_n of_o god_n in_o who_o heart_n and_o mind_n god_n have_v write_v his_o divine_a law_n and_o have_v give_v they_o life_n and_o power_n from_o on_o high_a who_o be_v able_a minister_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o discerner_n of_o spirit_n in_o the_o light_n and_o wisdom_n of_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n and_o do_v hear_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n in_o their_o own_o soul_n and_o do_v speak_v from_o the_o teach_n of_o god_n in_o themselves_o so_o i_o hope_v you_o do_v see_v that_o those_o who_o god_n do_v teach_v they_o have_v a_o right_a to_o teach_v other_o though_o not_o hereunto_o ordain_v by_o earthly_a water_n nor_o any_o tradition_n of_o man_n take_v up_o from_o a_o carnal_a understanding_n of_o the_o scripture_n but_o if_o man_n do_v not_o see_v this_o truth_n it_o be_v because_o of_o their_o ignorance_n and_o blindness_n and_o want_v of_o experience_n in_o the_o mystery_n of_o truth_n obj._n 20._o but_o here_o you_o will_v say_v the_o apostle_n be_v to_o go_v forth_o in_o a_o extraordinary_a work_n to_o teach_v all_o the_o world_n to_o speak_v with_o new_a tongue_n work_v miracle_n etc._n etc._n but_o now_o ordinary_a gift_n will_v serve_v for_o to_o teach_v our_o own_o nation_n etc._n etc._n answ_n 1._o i_o grant_v they_o be_v to_o
