conceive_v enough_o say_v on_o your_o part_n against_o it_o so_o i_o conceive_v i_o have_v say_v sufficient_o for_o it_o in_o my_o reply_n to_o those_o two_o part_n of_o it_o confession_n and_o satisfaction_n to_o which_o i_o refer_v you_o so_o i_o shall_v make_v it_o my_o business_n now_o to_o prove_v the_o other_o four_o to_o be_v sacrament_n and_o of_o divine_a institution_n and_o i_o shall_v begin_v with_o the_o sacrament_n of_o confirmation_n every_o sacrament_n be_v a_o sensible_a sign_n have_v a_o infallible_a assistance_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o such_o i_o prove_v confirmation_n to_o be_v by_o most_o express_a scripture_n thus_o we_o find_v in_o the_o act_n that_o when_o the_o apostle_n which_o be_v at_o jerusalem_n hear_v that_o samaria_n have_v receive_v the_o word_n of_o god_n 17._o act._n 8.14.15_o 16_o 17._o they_o send_v unto_o they_o peter_n and_o john_n who_o when_o they_o be_v come_v down_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o they_o may_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n f●r_v as_o yet_o he_o be_v fall_v upon_o none_o of_o they_o only_o they_o be_v baptize_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n then_o lay_v they_o their_o hand_n upon_o they_o and_o they_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n here_o be_v manifest_o a_o confirmation_n after_o baptism_n and_o a_o sensible_a sign_n to_o wit_n imposition_n of_o hand_n by_o which_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v confer_v and_o that_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v a_o sacrament_n again_o we_o find_v in_o another_o chapter_n of_o the_o same_o act_n 6._o act._n 19.2.3_o 4_o 5_o 6._o that_o paul_n be_v at_o ephesus_n and_o find_v some_o disciple_n there_o say_v unto_o they_o have_v you_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n since_o ●e_v believe_v and_o they_o say_v unto_o he_o we_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o hear_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o holy_a ghost_n and_o be_v say_v unto_o they_o unto_o what_o then_o be_v you_o baptize_v and_o they_o say_v unto_o he_o john_n baptism_n than_o say_v paul_n john_n very_o baptize_v with_o the_o boptism_n of_o repentance_n say_v unto_o the_o people_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v on_o he_o which_o shall_v come_v after_o he_o that_o be_v on_o christ_n jesus_n when_o they_o hear_v this_o they_o believe_v on_o christ_n jesus_n and_o when_o paul_n bid_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o they_o the_o holy_a ghost_n come_v on_o they_o and_o they_o speak_v with_o tongue_n and_o prophesy_v here_o be_v i_o say_v again_o after_o belief_n and_o baptism_n a_o imposition_n of_o hand_n by_o which_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v fer_v now_o that_o this_o sacrament_n waa_o institute_v by_o christ_n himself_o be_v plain_a by_o the_o gospel_n 16._o john_n 16._o where_o he_o promise_v his_o apostle_n the_o comforter_n his_o holy_a spirit_n with_o which_o they_o shall_v be_v confirm_v by_o virtue_n from_o above_o now_o the_o mission_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o time_n of_o penticost_n either_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o confirmation_n itself_o or_o instead_o of_o it_o 10._o mark_n 11.13_o 14._o matth._n 10._o again_o we_o find_v in_o the_o gospel_n that_o they_o bring_v young_a child_n to_o christ_n that_o be_v shall_v touch_v they_o and_o his_o disciple_n rebuke_v they_o that_o bring_v they_o but_o when_o jesus_n see_v it_o be_v be_v displease_v and_o say_v suffer_v the_o little_a child_n to_o come_v to_o i_o for_o of_o such_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n now_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o he_o do_v either_o institute_v this_o sacrament_n then_o or_o at_o least_o infinuate_v it_o so_o enough_o i_o coceive_v say_v to_o that_o now_o that_o the_o sacramnot_v of_o order_n be_v institute_v likewise_o by_o christ_n himself_o and_o with_o a_o sensible_a sign_n conferr_v grace_n i_o prove_v this_o by_o express_a scripture_n first_o we_o find_v that_o when_o jesus_n have_v call_v unto_o he_o his_o twelve_o disciple_n 10.1_o mat._n 10.1_o he_o give_v they_o power_n against_o unclean_a spirets_n and_o to_o heal_v all_o manner_n of_o sickness_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o disease_n then_o again_o jesus_n go_v up_o into_o the_o mountain_n and_o call_v unto_o he_o wh●m_o he_o will_v and_o they_o come_v unto_o he_o and_o he_o make_v that_o twelve_o shall_v be_v with_o he_o 6.7_o mark_n 6.7_o and_o he_o send_v they_o to_o preach_v etc._n etc._n and_o after_o these_o thing_n the_o lord_n appoint_v other_o seventy_o also_o and_o send_v they_o tweand_a two_o before_o his_o face_n into_o every_o city_n and_o place_n whither_o he_o himself_o will_v come_v then_o again_o we_o find_v 10.1_o luk_n 10.1_o that_o take_v bread_n he_o break_v it_o give_v thanks_o and_o say_n this_o be_v my_o body_n etc._n etc._n do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o then_o last_o of_o all_o look_n into_o st._n john_n gospel_n and_o you_o will_v find_v yet_o a_o more_o express_a ordination_n and_o mission_n as_o my_o father_n h●th_v since_o i_o so_o send_v i_o you_o 28._o l●k_n 28._o and_o when_o he_o have_v say_v this_o he_o breathe_v on_o they_o and_o say_v unto_o they_o receive_v you_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 23_o john_n 10._o ●_o 21_o 22_o 23_o whosoever_o sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v unto_o they_o and_o whosoever_o sin_n you_o retain_v they_o be_v retain_v thus_o you_o have_v in_o the_o four_o gospel_n the_o institution_n of_o this_o sacrament_n let_v we_o now_o look_v a_o little_a into_o the_o apostolical_a practice_n we_o find_v in_o the_o act_n ●●_o act._n 13._o ●●_o as_o they_o minister_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o fast_v the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v separate_v i_o barnabas_n and_o saul_n for_o the_o work_n whereunto_o i_o have_v call_v they_o and_o when_o they_o have_v fast_v and_o pray_v and_o i_o do_v their_o hand_n on_o they_o they_o send_v they_o away_o here_o again_o be_v plain_a ordination_n and_o mission_n st._n paul_n give_v direction_n to_o young_a timothy_n how_o to_o behaave_v himself_o in_o his_o ministry_n and_o then_o say_v 4.14_o 1_o tim._n 4.14_o neglect_v not_o the_o gift_n that_o be_v in_o thou_o which_o be_v give_v to_o thou_o by_o prophesy_n with_o the_o lay_n on_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o presbytery_n then_o again_o he_o say_v lay_v not_o thy_o hand_n on_o any_o man_n over_o hafty_o and_o again_o the_o elder_n that_o govern_v well_o be_v worthy_a of_o double_a honour_n then_o the_o same_o apostle_n tell_v titus_n 6._o 1_o tim._n 6._o for_o this_o cause_n i_o leave_v thou_o in_o crect_n that_o thou_o shall_v make_v elder_n in_o several_a city_n 1._o 2_o tim._n 1._o then_o to_o philemon_n he_o say_v of_o those_o elder_n those_o that_o be_v of_o this_o sort_n have_v a_o great_a regard_n to_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o respect_n st._n paul_n have_v to_o holy_a order_n and_o yet_o to_o admonish_v we_o further_o of_o our_o duty_n to_o they_o he_o make_v it_o his_o humble_a request_n to_o the_o thessalonian_o thus_o 1._o phil._n 1._o we_o beseech_v you_o brethren_n to_o know_v they_o that_o labour_n among_o you_o and_o over_o you_o on_o the_o lord_n and_o admonish_v you_o in_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o esteem_v they_o very_o high_o in_o love_n for_o their_o work_n sake_n and_o be_v at_o peace_n among_o yourselves_o see_v what_o charge_n st._n 5.12.13_o 1_o thes_n 5.12.13_o peter_n give_v the_o elder_n the_o elder_n which_o be_v among_o you_o i_o exhort_v who_o

you_o shall_v receive_v a_o crown_n of_o glory_n that_o fade_v not_o away_o so_o st._n paul_n again_o in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v the_o elder_n of_o eph●sus_n thus_o take_v heed_n therefore_o unto_o yourselves_o and_o to_o the_o flock_n over_o which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v make_v you_o bishop_n or_o overseer_n as_o you_o will_v have_v it_o for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o feed_v the_o church_n of_o god_n which_o he_o have_v purchase_v with_o his_o own_o blood_n 1.37_o act._n 20.28_o ge●_n 1.37_o observe_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n make_v they_o bishop_n and_o overseer_n and_o yet_o you_o will_v deny_v order_n to_o be_v a_o sacrament_n but_o it_o be_v plain_a it_o be_v for_o imposition_n of_o hand_n be_v the_o visible_a sign_n which_o carry_v with_o it_o the_o invisible_a grace_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n as_o you_o have_v see_v at_o large_a prove_v by_o scripture_n that_o matrimony_n be_v a_o sacrament_n and_o institute_v by_o christ_n i_o likewise_o prove_v by_o express_a scripture_n thus_o first_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o the_o blessing_n which_o god_n almighty_a give_v to_o adam_n and_o eve_n in_o paradise_n be_v not_o unaccompanied_a with_o divine_a

grace_n but_o howsoever_o the_o institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n i_o be_o sure_a can_v not_o be_v without_o it_o 19.1.6_o matth._n 19.1.6_o and_o first_o he_o be_v please_v to_o repeat_v the_o word_n of_o the_o first_o institution_n for_o this_o cause_n shall_v a_o man_n leave_v his_o father_n &_o mother_n &_o shall_v cleave_v to_o his_o wife_n and_o they_o twain_o shall_v be_v one_o flesh_n wherefore_o they_o be_v no_o more_o twain_o but_o one_o flesh_n what_o therefore_o god_n have_v join_v together_o let_v no_o man_n put_v asunder_o now_o if_o god_n have_v joyndthemtogether_o it_o must_v be_v a_o divine_a conjunction_n and_o that_o can_v possible_o be_v without_o divine_a grace_n but_o this_o be_v most_o full_o express_v by_o st_n paul_n to_o the_o ephesian_n thus_o wife_n submit_v yourselves_o to_o your_o own_o husband_n as_o unto_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o husband_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o wife_n even_o as_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o he_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o body_n therefore_o as_o the_o church_n be_v subject_a to_o christ_n 225_o ephes_n 5.22_o 23_o 225_o so_o let_v the_o wife_n be_v to_o their_o own_o husband_n in_o every_o thing_n husband_n love_v your_o wife_n even_o as_o christ_n also_o love_v the_o church_n and_o give_v himself_o for_o it_o etc._n etc._n and_o then_o conclude_v for_o this_o eause_n shall_v a_o man_n leave_v his_o father_n and_o mother_n and_o shall_v be_v join_v with_o his_o wife_n and_o they_o two_o shall_v be_v one_o flesh_n this_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n or_o sacrament_n choose_v you_o which_o here_o the_o apostle_n clear_o proclaim_v it_o a_o sacrament_n because_o the_o conjunction_n of_o man_n and_o wife_n be_v the_o visible_a sign_n of_o that_o sacred_a conjunction_n between_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n again_o to_o the_o hebrew_n he_o say_v thus_o marriage_n be_v honourable_a in_o all_o and_o the_o bed_n undefiled_a 13.4_o heb._n 13.4_o but_o whereminger_n and_o adulterer_n god_n will_v judge_v now_o if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o divine_a and_o sacramental_a grace_n in_o marriage_n how_o can_v the_o bed_n be_v undefiled_a again_o to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o advise_v every_o one_o to_o have_v his_o own_o wise_a 7.2_o 1_o cor._n 7.2_o for_o the_o avoid_n of_o formeation_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v suppose_v that_o any_o man_n by_o the_o help_n of_o a_o wife_n only_o be_v she_o what_o she_o can_v be_v of_o virtue_n and_o beauty_n can_v be_v capable_a to_o avoid_v fornication_n without_o the_o say_v sacramental_a grace_n again_o to_o the_o thessalonian_o thus_o 1._o 1_o thes_n 1._o let_v every_o one_o among_o you_o know_v how_o to_o possess_v his_o vessel_n in_o sanctification_n and_o honour_n now_o sanctification_n we_o know_v can_v be_v without_o divine_a grace_n then_o he_o tell_v timethy_a that_o a_o woman_n shall_v be_v save_v by_o childbearing_n if_o she_o remain_v in_o say_v and_o love_n now_o to_o beget_v child_n without_o the_o grace_n of_o this_o sacrament_n will_v be_v more_o probable_o occasion_n of_o damnation_n than_o salvation_n then_o again_o to_o the_o corinthian_n he_o say_v 14_o 1_o cor._n 7.12_o 13_o 14_o if_o any_o brother_n have_v a_o wife_n that_o believe_v not_o and_o she_o be_v please_v to_o dwell_v with_o he_o let_v he_o not_o put_v she_o away_o and_o the_o woman_n which_o have_v a_o busband_n that_o believe_v not_o and_o if_o he_o be_v please_v to_o dwell_v with_o she_o let_v she_o not_o leave_v he_o for_o the_o unbelieving_a husband_n be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o wife_n and_o the_o unbelieving_a wife_n be_v sanctify_v by_o the_o husband_n else_o be_v your_o child_n unclean_a but_o now_o be_v they_o holy_a which_o must_v needs_o be_v understand_v as_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n i_o shall_v conclude_v all_o concern_v this_o 19_o prov._n 19_o with_o what_o the_o wise_a king_n solomon_n tell_v we_o that_o a_o house_n and_o riches_n we_o have_v from_o our_o parent_n but_o a_o prudent_a wife_n be_v from_o the_o lord_n thus_o we_o must_v acknowledge_v god_n to_o be_v the_o immediate_a author_n of_o marriage_n as_o we_o say_v match_n be_v make_v in_o heaven_n and_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o this_o sacrament_n only_o to_o be_v make_v happy_a that_o extreme_a unction_n be_v a_o saeroment_n likewise_o and_o a_o visible_a sign_n of_o a_o invisible_a grace_n i_o prove_v by_o ezpress_a scripture_n thus_o we_o find_v in_o saint_n mark_v gospel_n how_o our_o saviour_n call_v unto_o he_o the_o twelve_o 13._o mark_n 6_o 7_o 8.9_o 10_o 11_o 12_o 13._o and_o begin_v to_o send_v they_o out_o by_o two_o and_o two_o and_o give_v they_o power_n over_o unclean_a spirit_n etc._n etc._n and_o after_o he_o have_v give_v they_o their_o mission_n full_o with_o order_n how_o to_o behave_v themselves_o in_o their_o business_n we_o find_v that_o they_o go_v out_o according_o and_o preach_v that_o man_n shall_v repent_v and_o they_o cast_v out_o many_o devil_n and_o then_o anoint_v with_o oil_n many_o that_o be_v sick_a and_o heal_v they_o this_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v think_v that_o they_o do_v this_o upon_o their_o own_o head_n but_o by_o their_o master_n command_n by_o who_o power_n they_o do_v those_o mighty_a work_n and_o have_v his_o command_n sure_o than_o none_o can_v deny_v but_o it_o be_v his_o institution_n then_o this_o sacrament_n be_v so_o loud_o proclaim_v by_o saint_n james_n that_o i_o admire_v how_o any_o christian_a can_v believe_v in_o scripture_n and_o doubt_v the_o other_o it_o any_o sick_a among_o you_o say_v the_o apostle_n 15._o james_n 5.14_o 15._o let_v he_o call_v for_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o church_n and_o let_v they_o pray_v over_o he_o anoint_v he_o with_o oil_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o

accompany_v it_o that_o be_v to_o say_v remission_n of_o sin_n thus_o you_o may_v clear_o see_v how_o extreme_a unction_n be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o our_o saviour_n own_o institution_n or_o at_o least_o plain_o imply_v to_o have_v be_v institute_v by_o he_o and_o that_o by_o the_o action_n of_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n before_o his_o face_n whilst_o he_o be_v upon_o earth_n and_o at_o large_a declare_v to_o be_v so_o by_o the_o express_a word_n of_o one_o of_o the_o twelve_o that_o be_v saint_n james_n over_o and_o above_o this_o we_o have_v the_o universal_a tradition_n of_o the_o

at_o large_a the_o whole_a world_n have_v not_o be_v able_a to_o contain_v the_o book_n that_o may_v have_v be_v write_v as_o saint_n john_n tell_v we_o of_o the_o act_n and_o word_n of_o our_o

they_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o insist_v upon_o because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o absolute_a necessity_n to_o salvation_n though_o they_o be_v very_o great_a expedient_n towards_o it_o the_o one_o to_o confirm_v we_o in_o grace_n after_o baptism_n the_o other_o to_o remove_v the_o relic_n of_o sin_n after_o a_o hearty_a repentance_n and_o it_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o learned_a in_o
