person_n must_v offer_v &_o give_v jesus_n christ_n god_n and_o man_n unto_o we_o which_o be_v set_v forth_o by_o the_o minister_n who_o bear_v their_o authority_n and_o do_v perform_v this_o

both_o in_o the_o word_n alone_o &_o also_o in_o the_o sacrament_n joh._n 6.27.32.37.40.45_o 46.57_o which_o place_n be_v not_o proper_a to_o that_o give_v of_o christ_n in_o the_o word_n alone_o or_o in_o the_o sacrament_n also_o but_o common_a and_o general_a to_o both_o now_o as_o the_o outward_a offering_n and_o give_v have_v relation_n to_o his_o inward_a so_o also_o the_o outward_a receive_n or_o have_v apply_v have_v relation_n unto_o the_o inward_a so_o in_o be_v baptize_v we_o be_v say_v to_o put_v on_o christ_n to_o be_v wash_v with_o he_o gal._n 3.27_o so_o in_o take_v and_o eat_v the_o bread_n we_o be_v to_o receive_v and_o turn_v to_o spiritual_a nourishment_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v here_o say_v that_o we_o be_v all_o make_v to_o drink_v into_o one_o spirit_n that_o be_v into_o spiritual_a nourishment_n out_o of_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a relation_n between_o the_o inward_a &_o outward_a matter_n with_o the_o apply_v of_o the_o same_o now_o we_o must_v consider_v the_o effect_n or_o work_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o outward_a sign_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o inward_a matter_n to_o which_o they_o have_v relation_n where_o first_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v we_o speak_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o declare_v that_o god_n have_v not_o give_v the_o effect_n and_o working_n follow_v to_o these_o instrument_n as_o faculty_n or_o property_n which_o be_v natural_o in_o they_o as_o that_o water_n shall_v aswell_o by_o force_n inherent_a in_o it_o wash_v our_o conscience_n from_o dead_a work_n to_o serve_v the_o live_a god_n as_o it_o have_v virtue_n to_o wash_v our_o bodily_a filth_n away_o and_o to_o cleanse_v we_o but_o only_o that_o god_n have_v choose_v they_o as_o his_o instrument_n to_o work_v by_o not_o by_o any_o property_n in_o they_o but_o by_o virtue_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v work_v by_o they_o so_o that_o as_o paul_n say_v of_o the_o ministry_n of_o man_n general_o paul_n be_v nothing_o in_o plant_n nor_o apollo_n in_o water_v but_o god_n which_o give_v the_o increase_n the_o same_o must_v likewise_o be_v understand_v especial_o of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v we_o be_v baptize_v into_o one_o body_n by_o one_o spirit_n so_o that_o indeed_o the_o whole_a cause_n that_o in_o baptism_n we_o be_v set_v in_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v john_n do_v baptize_v as_o the_o minister_n with_o water_n but_o christ_n as_o the_o lord_n with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mat._n 3._o therefore_o all_o this_o work_n of_o the_o inward_a grace_n be_v give_v to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 1._o cor._n 6._o tit._n 5.5.6_o and_o so_o paul_n show_v he_o be_v exhort_v to_o wash_v away_o his_o sin_n in_o baptism_n with_o call_v on_o the_o name_n of_o god_n who_o only_o shall_v work_v that_o work_n this_o be_v learn_v against_o the_o papist_n we_o may_v know_v that_o the_o work_n of_o the_o sacrament_n come_v not_o from_o the_o very_a work_n wrought_v but_o from_o god_n spirit_n work_v in_o and_o by_o the_o same_o and_o that_o work_n be_v by_o the_o work_n of_o faith_n in_o god_n child_n now_o the_o effect_n of_o work_v as_o they_o be_v seal_n both_o which_o be_v distinct_o note_v of_o the_o apostle_n as_o sign_n rom._n 4.12_o in_o that_o by_o their_o relation_n with_o the_o spiritual_a matter_n they_o do_v lively_o set_v forth_o to_o the_o understanding_n by_o many_o sense_n as_o feel_v see_v etc._n etc._n the_o inward_a spiritual_a matter_n to_o which_o they_o have_v relation_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v annex_v so_o the_o passeover_n be_v a_o sign_n upon_o their_o hand_n a_o frontlet_n between_o their_o eye_n that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n may_v be_v in_o their_o mouth_n exod._n 13.9_o whereby_o we_o see_v it_o be_v become_v a_o schoolmaster_n by_o the_o word_n more_o excellent_a than_o the_o word_n alone_o that_o even_o the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n may_v be_v more_o livelie_a speak_v of_o now_o it_o be_v not_o a_o sign_n only_o to_o set_v forth_o &_o livelie_a represent_v unto_o we_o these_o thing_n by_o outward_a mean_n but_o also_o to_o offer_v from_o god_n in_o truth_n all_o those_o benefit_n in_o christ_n which_o be_v represent_v for_o god_n do_v not_o dally_v but_o do_v true_o offer_v in_o his_o sacrament_n to_o all_o that_o be_v admit_v unto_o they_o all_o that_o which_o be_v there_o signify_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v of_o s._n paul_n that_o all_o do_v eat_v of_o that_o spiritual_a meat_n &_o all_o do_v drink_v of_o that_o spiritual_a rock_n which_o be_v christ_n 1._o cor._n 10.23_o etc._n etc._n because_o all_o do_v eat_v that_o spiritual_a meat_n which_o do_v offer_v unto_o they_o the_o spiritual_a manna_n all_o do_v drink_v of_o that_o rock_n which_o do_v follow_v they_o and_o be_v in_o show_n and_o representation_n a_o true_a and_o very_a offering_n indeed_o of_o christ_n but_o some_o of_o they_o receive_v only_o the_o outward_a sign_n do_v neglect_n or_o refuse_v the_o spiritual_a grace_n so_o livelie_a represent_v and_o true_o offer_v they_o the_o second_o effect_n and_o work_n which_o be_v only_o in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o those_o which_o be_v of_o discretion_n by_o faith_n alone_o do_v seal_v up_o that_o be_v more_o sure_o firm_o certain_o &_o comfortable_o apply_v christ_n unto_o we_o and_o all_o his_o gift_n necessary_a for_o we_o according_a to_o the_o covenant_n and_o promise_v of_o god_n in_o he_o so_o that_o this_o use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v plain_a that_o although_o christ_n be_v bodily_a absent_a yet_o he_o be_v true_o &_o indeed_o by_o faith_n present_a with_o all_o his_o benefit_n true_o receive_v and_o so_o his_o communion_n &_o fellowship_n apply_v unto_o the_o true_a receiver_n only_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n that_o in_o the_o word_n and_o by_o the_o word_n alone_o our_o faith_n be_v wrought_v we_o true_o receive_v christ_n by_o faith_n but_o in_o these_o sacrament_n our_o faith_n be_v quicken_v confirm_v and_o increase_v &_o so_o do_v more_o full_o lively_o and_o comfortable_o apply_v christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n both_o these_o be_v very_o manifest_a in_o the_o scripture_n the_o first_o that_o indeed_o christ_n with_o his_o benefit_n be_v in_o and_o by_o these_o sign_n as_o by_o instrument_n receive_v for_o we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v baptize_v here_o into_o one_o body_n that_o be_v by_o baptism_n to_o be_v ingraft_v into_o one_o body_n and_o have_v be_v make_v to_o drink_v into_o one_o spirit_n that_o be_v one_o spiritual_a drink_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n so_o true_o and_o indeed_o christ_n be_v put_v on_o we_o be_v true_o plant_v into_o he_o his_o death_n resurrection_n etc._n etc._n gal._n 3.27_o rom._n 6.3_o we_o be_v wash_v we_o be_v save_v not_o by_o the_o outward_a work_n do_v as_o the_o papist_n imagine_v not_o by_o put_v away_o of_o the_o filthiness_n of_o the_o flesh_n but_o by_o the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n through_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n 1._o pet._n 3.21_o so_o in_o the_o supper_n it_o be_v most_o apparent_a the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o we_o which_o receive_v communicate_v christ_n in_o &_o by_o these_o sign_n as_o the_o whole_a order_n and_o institution_n shall_v make_v this_o more_o manifest_a afterward_o now_o the_o other_o point_n that_o these_o be_v seal_n not_o first_fw-mi to_o give_v but_o more_o firmlie_o sure_o and_o comfortable_o
dependent_a or_o hang_v upon_o their_o preach_n this_o word_n once_o be_v add_v as_o that_o which_o be_v gather_v out_o of_o the_o institution_n of_o christ_n who_o will_v they_o to_o minister_v to_o every_o believer_n baptism_n not_o baptism_n who_o say_v not_o of_o this_o as_o of_o the_o supper_n as_o often_o as_o you_o do_v this_o also_o according_a to_o the_o plain_a example_n of_o the_o apostle_n who_o will_v not_o have_v the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n baptize_v the_o second_o time_n as_o appear_v by_o this_o that_o those_o who_o believe_v continue_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o communication_n break_v of_o bread_n and_o prayer_n but_o not_o in_o be_v baptize_v act._n 2._o and_o also_o that_o paul_n find_v those_o that_o be_v baptize_v of_o john_n &_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v instruct_v they_o of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n &_o the_o baptism_n answer_v the_o same_o &_o do_v not_o baptize_v they_o again_o but_o lay_v on_o hand_n on_o they_o they_o receive_v visible_a gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n act._n 19.4.5_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o it_o seal_v up_o our_o wash_n in_o christ_n our_o once_a be_v bear_v again_o our_o once_a settle_n into_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n our_o once_o spiritual_a marriage_n with_o he_o as_o shall_v after_o more_o plain_o appear_v wash_v or_o baptise_v both_o be_v add_v because_o wash_v be_v necessary_a to_o the_o sacrament_n and_o yet_o there_o may_v be_v wash_v without_o baptise_v as_o it_o do_v signify_v in_o his_o narrow_a and_o straight_a signification_n that_o be_v a_o wash_n with_o a_o whole_a plunge_v of_o they_o in_o water_n so_o then_o we_o must_v know_v that_o wash_v be_v of_o necessity_n because_o so_o s._n paul_n declare_v the_o nature_n of_o baptism_n eph._n 5.26_o the_o wash_n of_o water_n through_o the_o word_n and_o that_o be_v apply_v in_o the_o word_n baptise_v use_v of_o our_o saviour_n which_o do_v signify_v a_o plunge_a to_o make_v clean_a and_o wash_v away_o the_o filth_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v necessary_a because_o of_o the_o proportion_n and_o relation_n it_o must_v have_v with_o our_o spiritual_a wash_n of_o our_o new_a birth_n tit._n 3.5_o for_o the_o purpose_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o set_v down_o before_o our_o eye_n lively_a in_o this_o outward_a bare_a apply_v of_o water_n the_o applying_z of_o christ_n unto_o we_o in_o our_o new_a birth_n that_o as_o we_o know_v in_o wash_v there_o be_v a_o be_v under_o the_o water_n a_o soak_v up_o of_o the_o filth_n and_o leave_v it_o behind_o so_o this_o may_v be_v lively_o set_v forth_o in_o three_o thing_n answer_v the_o same_o in_o our_o justification_n and_o sanctification_n as_o shall_v after_o appear_v which_o be_v also_o most_o livelie_a note_v in_o that_o plunge_a before_o now_o in_o that_o it_o be_v add_v with_o water_n that_o must_v needs_o be_v understand_v in_o the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o apostle_n the_o wash_n of_o water_n etc._n etc._n and_o in_o the_o word_n of_o john_n baptist_n i_o baptize_v you_o with_o water_n and_o in_o act._n 10._o in_o the_o end_n he_o call_v for_o water_n and_o command_v they_o to_o be_v baptize_v and_o by_o the_o story_n of_o the_o euneuch_n and_o indeed_o because_o nothing_o be_v apt_a to_o set_v forth_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n &_o his_o merit_n which_o be_v apt_a to_o cleanse_v and_o wash_v we_o but_o water_n which_o leave_v no_o filth_n herein_o therefore_o we_o learn_v plain_o that_o christ_n will_v lively_o teach_v we_o and_o make_v we_o see_v and_o feel_v in_o his_o outward_a work_n that_o same_o which_o be_v inward_a that_o which_o be_v further_o adjoin_v into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n the_o

segregated_a from_o the_o world_n to_o have_v fellowship_n with_o one_o god_n in_o three_o person_n as_o a_o wife_n with_o a_o husband_n which_o be_v note_v by_o this_o into_o the_o name_n that_o be_v

the_o wife_n be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o husband_n and_o to_o bear_v the_o man_n name_n or_o to_o have_v his_o name_n call_v on_o a_o woman_n be_v to_o be_v a_o wife_n esai_n 4.1_o so_o to_o be_v into_o the_o name_n of_o god_n to_o bear_v his_o name_n be_v to_o be_v separate_v and_o dedicate_v to_o he_o as_o his_o spouse_n to_o obey_v he_o and_o receive_v protection_n and_o

that_o when_o as_o no_o flesh_n can_v be_v justify_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n we_o may_v obtain_v the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v free_a without_o all_o respect_n of_o work_n
