sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n look_v at_o christ_n as_o already_o come_v have_v shed_v his_o blood_n and_o finish_v the_o work_n of_o redemption_n and_o require_v ●aith_n in_o he_o under_o that_o notion_n and_o in_o that_o respect_n as_o it_o differ_v from_o the_o former_a by_o this_o that_o it_o be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n so_o in_o this_o particular_a it_o agree_v with_o the_o eucharist_n so_o that_o from_o hence_o we_o may_v describe_v a_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o be_v a_o rite_n institute_v by_o christ_n to_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n already_o shed_v wherein_o we_o may_v observe_v 1._o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n shed_v 2._o a_o covenant_n confirm_v in_o and_o by_o this_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o sacrifice_n already_o offer_v 3._o a_o confirmation_n of_o this_o covenant_n make_v between_o god_n and_o particular_a person_n by_o these_o holy_a rite_n sect._n 3_o baptism_n as_o it_o be_v 1._o a_o sacrament_n 2._o a_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n so_o 3._o it_o be_v the_o initiate_a sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o there_o be_v but_o two_o sacrament_n of_o the_o gospel_n institute_v by_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o in_o order_n and_o first_o to_o be_v administer_v it_o presuppose_v the_o party_n to_o be_v baptize_v as_o a_o alien_n and_o not_o yet_o solemn_o admit_v into_o the_o church_n and_o kingdom_n of_o god_n though_o he_o may_v be_v prepare_v for_o this_o admission_n and_o incorporation_n in_o respect_n of_o this_o initiation_n it_o differ_v from_o the_o eucharist_n which_o can_v lawful_o be_v administer_v to_o any_o but_o such_o as_o be_v member_n of_o the_o church_n and_o incorporate_v already_o for_o as_o under_o the_o law_n no_o stranger_n may_v be_v admit_v to_o the_o passover_n so_o under_o the_o gospel_n no_o unbaptised_a person_n may_v come_v unto_o the_o lord_n table_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o this_o rite_n be_v call_v the_o laver_n of_o regeneration_n the_o sacrament_n of_o our_o new_a birth_n and_o of_o our_o engraft_v into_o christ_n and_o as_o we_o be_v but_o once_o

for_o a_o high_a end_n and_o that_o be_v to_o signify_v and_o confirm_v a_o spiritual_a cleanse_n and_o though_o some_o make_v this_o in_o baptism_n to_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o christ_n blood_n which_o have_v a_o power_n to_o cleanse_v and_o purge_v the_o conscience_n from_o dead_a work_n to_o serve_v the_o live_a god_n yet_o in_o this_o sacrament_n it_o rather_o signify_v the_o holy_a ghost_n

do_v not_o renew_v and_o cleanse_v we_o but_o by_o virtue_n of_o christ_n blood_n which_o merit_v the_o renovation_n and_o purification_n of_o the_o soul._n for_o if_o christ_n blood_n have_v not_o

sprinkle_v of_o water_n or_o blood_n this_o action_n for_o this_o end_n imply_v the_o party_n to_o be_v baptize_v as_o pollute_v with_o sin_n and_o so_o unfit_a to_o have_v communion_n with_o god_n and_o to_o be_v admit_v into_o his_o heavenly_a kingdom_n therefore_o he_o must_v be_v renew_v purify_a and_o regenerate_v and_o that_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n engraft_v he_o into_o christ_n and_o plant_v he_o into_o the_o similitude_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o resurrection_n thence_o we_o have_v two_o part_n of_o this_o regeneration_n 1._o remission_n 2._o sanctification_n &_o in_o

must_v not_o in_o this_o sacrament_n stand_v upon_o the_o more_o perfect_a or_o imperfect_a representation_n of_o the_o spiritual_a part_n thereof_o the_o principal_a thing_n visible_a &_o sensible_a be_v wash_v &_o cleanse_v the_o principal_a thing_n signify_v be_v the_o sanctification_n and_o purge_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o conscience_n sect._n 6._o the_o word_n be_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o

〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d both_o signify_v to_o dip_v or_o plunge_v a_o thing_n in_o water_n or_o some_o other_o liquid_a substance_n and_o because_o the_o end_n of_o this_o dip_v or_o plunge_v be_v sometime_o to_o

their_o several_a end_n and_o the_o end_n of_o sacrament_n and_o these_o mystery_n be_v distinct_a and_o different_a from_o the_o end_n of_o other_o rite_n therefore_o in_o strict_a sense_n a_o sacrament_n be_v a_o rite_n institute_v of_o god_n to_o confirm_v his_o covenant_n where_o we_o have_v 1._o the_o general_a nature_n of_o a_o sacrament_n 2._o the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o a_o

addition_n to_o some_o other_o thing_n or_o action_n to_o which_o they_o be_v accidental_a and_o no_o way_n essential_a and_o they_o usual_o signify_v something_o to_o the_o understanding_n beside_o that_o which_o they_o represent_v to_o the_o sense_n the_o reason_n why_o they_o be_v add_v be_v the_o great_a solemnity_n thus_o the_o sacrament_n be_v religious_a rite_n add_v to_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o in_o themselves_o be_v some_o outward_a thing_n and_o action_n which_o represent_v some_o thing_n and_o action_n which_o be_v sacred_a and_o divine_a and_o this_o signification_n be_v not_o natural_a but_o from_o institution_n in_o this_o respect_n they_o usual_o make_v two_o material_a part_n of_o a_o sacrament_n 1._o a_o outward_a sensible_a sign_n 2._o a_o inward_a hide_a spiritual_a thing_n signify_v so_o that_o the_o thing_n and_o action_n which_o be_v rite_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v 1._o in_o themselves_o 2._o in_o their_o significative_a nature_n as_o sign_n these_o sacramental_a rite_n be_v annex_v to_o the_o covenant_n that_o it_o may_v be_v make_v and_o renew_v with_o the_o great_a solemnity_n thus_o circumcision_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o sign_n add_v

hide_a mystical_a part_n 2._o the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o these_o rite_n to_o be_v observe_v by_o all_o christian_n be_v god_n who_o by_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n have_v not_o only_o speak_v unto_o we_o and_o reveal_v the_o gospel_n but_o also_o institute_v these_o sacrament_n there_o be_v rite_n invent_v by_o man_n and_o also_o by_o devil_n and_o some_o of_o they_o be_v abominable_a and_o from_o the_o multiplication_n of_o these_o in_o performance_n of_o divine_a service_n spring_v so_o many_o superstition_n when_o such_o thing_n as_o god_n never_o appoint_v or_o require_v at_o our_o hand_n be_v conceit_v to_o be_v holy_a or_o necessary_a or_o of_o a_o sanctify_a power_n therefore_o it_o concern_v we_o all_o to_o consider_v what_o rite_n be_v of_o divine_a institution_n whether_o they_o be_v ceremony_n of_o the_o old_a or_o new_a testament_n for_o god_n institute_v rite_n of_o old_a as_o well_o as_o in_o these_o latter_a time_n of_o the_o gospel_n 2._o what_o rite_n institute_v by_o he_o be_v now_o in_o force_n so_o as_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o the_o observation_n of_o they_o by_o reason_n of_o divine_a institution_n and_o command_n they_o be_v positive_a law_n of_o god_n which_o do_v not_o bind_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o they_o which_o be_v indifferent_a but_o of_o god_n command_n from_o who_o institution_n promise_v and_o command_v but_o not_o of_o themselves_o they_o conduce_v to_o our_o sanctification_n 3._o the_o end_n of_o a_o sacrament_n be_v to_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n in_o christ_n make_v between_o god_n and_o man_n this_o presuppose_v 1._o the_o death_n and_o redemption_n by_o christ_n as_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o covenant_n for_o if_o there_o be_v no_o redemption_n there_o be_v no_o promise_n of_o life_n unto_o sinful_a man_n 2._o a_o covenant_n and_o this_o covenant_n presuppose_v a_o law_n wherein_o god_n command_v man_n to_o repent_v and_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o upon_o this_o repentance_n and_o faith_n promise_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o eternal_a happiness_n and_o because_o god_n will_v deal_v with_o man_n as_o with_o a_o rational_a free_a creature_n he_o propose_v the_o condition_n require_v in_o his_o law_n and_o expect_v his_o assent_n and_o voluntary_a obligation_n of_o himself_o 3._o when_o a_o man_n express_v his_o consent_n and_o promise_v free_o unto_o god_n that_o he_o will_v believe_v and_o repent_v than_o this_o covenant_n be_v make_v the_o redemption_n by_o christ_n the_o covenant_n in_o itself_o and_o the_o make_n of_o the_o covenant_n presuppose_a

be_v put_v to_o a_o indenture_n or_o other_o evidence_n and_o particular_o to_o league_n to_o confirm_v they_o so_o a_o sacrament_n be_v add_v to_o this_o covenant_n for_o confirmation_n so_o that_o
