god_n &_o his_o people_n not_o simple_o but_o establish_v and_o confirm_v by_o sacred_a rite_n &_o ceremony_n as_o it_o manifest_o appear_v in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o circumcision_n between_o god_n and_o abraham_n and_o between_o christ_n and_o we_o in_o baptism_n which_o succeed_v the_o circumcision_n therefore_o sacrament_n be_v often_o take_v of_o the_o father_n for_o that_o whole_a action_n either_o of_o baptism_n or_o of_o the_o lord_n supper_n wherein_o there_o go_v before_o a_o promise_n on_o both_o side_n holy_o confirm_v with_o external_a rite_n and_o seal_n or_o sign_n and_o even_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n but_o afterward_o by_o a_o synecdoche_n they_o understand_v by_o the_o name_n of_o sacrament_n only_o the_o rite_n and_o sign_n add_v to_o the_o word_n and_o this_o last_o signification_n have_v be_v much_o use_v in_o the_o church_n we_o therefore_o call_v a_o sacrament_n according_a to_o the_o signification_n receive_v in_o the_o church_n not_o the_o word_n alone_o nor_o the_o element_n alone_o but_o the_o element_n water_n or_o bread_n &_o wine_n join_v with_o the_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n according_a to_o christ_n institution_n according_a to_o that_o same_o of_o augustine_n to_o the_o element_n come_v the_o word_n and_o then_o it_o be_v a_o sacrament_n ii_o sacrament_n of_o what_o thing_n they_o be_v sacrament_n but_o because_o every_o sacrament_n be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o some_o thing_n this_o thing_n we_o say_v be_v that_o which_o be_v mean_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n namely_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n or_o rather_o christ_n himself_o with_o grace_n &_o salvation_n place_v in_o he_o for_o he_o do_v the_o gospel_n whole_o propound_v or_o set_v out_o unto_o we_o and_o unto_o his_o communion_n as_o the_o word_n so_o the_o sacrament_n also_o be_v institute_v and_o do_v draw_v our_o mind_n by_o their_o signification_n and_o therefore_o that_o which_o be_v outward_o give_v we_o call_v it_o a_o sign_n of_o he_o which_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v in_o wardly_a and_o that_o which_o be_v do_v without_o we_o call_v his_o seal_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v inward_o in_o our_o heart_n iii_o of_o what_o part_n a_o sacrament_n consist_v hereby_o also_o we_o know_v of_o what_o part_n proper_o consist_v a_o sacrament_n namely_o of_o the_o word_n and_o outward_a sign_n but_o so_o as_o they_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o thing_n signify_v and_o represent_v by_o they_o and_o whereof_o they_o be_v a_o sacrament_n for_o that_o whereof_o any_o thing_n be_v a_o sacrament_n can_v not_o be_v the_o sacrament_n itself_o nor_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n since_o every_o sacrament_n be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o some_o other_o thing_n than_o itself_o mean_o while_o we_o do_v not_o simple_o separate_v the_o thing_n itself_o from_o the_o sacrament_n neither_o do_v we_o deny_v but_o among_o the_o father_n and_o most_o of_o the_o godly_a and_o learned_a writer_n under_o the_o name_n of_o sacrament_n be_v comprehend_v that_o itself_o whereof_o any_o thing_n be_v a_o sacrament_n as_o by_o the_o name_n of_o baptism_n not_o only_o be_v understand_v the_o outward_a wash_n with_o water_n and_o the_o word_n but_o also_o be_v contain_v the_o very_a inward_a cleanse_n of_o the_o conscience_n from_o sin_n &_o regeneration_n therefore_o we_o embrace_v that_o say_n of_o ireneus_fw-la of_o the_o lord_n supper_n that_o it_o consist_v of_o a_o earthly_a matter_n and_o a_o heavenly_a neither_o do_v we_o ourselves_o use_v to_o forbear_v such_o kind_n of_o speech_n when_o we_o talk_v of_o the_o sacrament_n but_o yet_o in_o this_o sense_n not_o that_o it_o be_v proper_o a_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n since_o it_o be_v rather_o that_o to_o the_o participation_n whereof_o the_o sacrament_n do_v bring_v we_o but_o that_o the_o sacrament_n have_v a_o mystical_a relation_n unto_o it_o and_o by_o the_o band_n or_o knot_n of_o this_o relation_n the_o earthly_a matter_n be_v couple_v with_o the_o heavenly_a and_o thus_o do_v we_o reconcile_v many_o say_n of_o the_o learned_a writer_n and_o of_o the_o father_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v some_o diverse_a and_o contrary_a meaning_n when_o indeed_o their_o opinion_n be_v one_o &_o the_o same_o every_o where_n most_o of_o they_o call_v sacrament_n simple_o by_o the_o name_n of_o sign_n figure_n token_n tip_n antytipe_n form_n seal_n sealinge_n ceremony_n visible_a word_n and_o such_o like_a name_n other_o say_v it_o consist_v of_o a_o earthly_a matter_n &_o a_o heavenly_a which_o how_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v we_o declare_v even_o now_o but_o all_o often_o call_v the_o sacrament_n by_o the_o name_n of_o those_o thing_n whereof_o they_o be_v sacrament_n after_o the_o use_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n when_o as_o notwithstanding_o all_o man_n have_v mean_v and_o profess_v in_o the_o name_n of_o sacrament_n these_o three_o thing_n the_o word_n the_o sign_n add_v to_o the_o word_n and_o the_o thing_n where_o of_o they_o be_v sign_n iu_o cause_n why_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v the_o external_a sign_n add_v to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o why_o they_o be_v call_v visible_a word_n we_o believe_v also_o and_o free_o confess_v that_o these_o visible_a sign_n by_o god_n institution_n be_v add_v and_o ought_v to_o be_v add_v to_o the_o word_n for_o a_o more_o full_a and_o firm_a confirmation_n of_o the_o word_n in_o our_o mind_n since_o it_o be_v even_o unto_o such_o a_o end_n that_o every_o where_o among_o all_o nation_n they_o use_v to_o put_v their_o seal_n to_o writing_n and_o to_o testament_n which_o be_v also_o the_o cause_n why_o augustine_n call_v the_o outward_a sign_n &_o the_o thing_n object_n to_o our_o sense_n visible_a word_n because_o indeed_o they_o be_v institute_v to_o this_o end_n and_o add_v to_o the_o word_n that_o they_o may_v do_v that_o which_o the_o word_n do_v that_o be_v that_o the_o same_o which_o the_o word_n signify_v to_o our_o ear_n the_o sign_n may_v represent_v to_o our_o eye_n &_o other_o sense_n and_o so_o may_v confirm_v the_o word_n and_o promise_n of_o god_n and_o as_o by_o the_o word_n faith_n be_v stir_v up_o in_o our_o mind_n so_o also_o by_o the_o outward_a sign_n as_o it_o be_v seal_v with_o seal_n it_o may_v be_v more_o thorough_o confirm_v and_o increase_v and_o last_o that_o as_o the_o word_n so_o also_o the_o holy_a sign_n be_v instrument_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o which_o we_o be_v bring_v unto_o that_o communion_n with_o christ_n and_o do_v conjoin_v therein_o and_o we_o have_v no_o doubt_n but_o all_o this_o be_v institute_v of_o god_n for_o our_o infirmity_n and_o ignorance_n and_o for_o the_o weakness_n of_o our_o faith_n that_o the_o same_o may_v be_v help_v not_o only_o by_o the_o word_n but_o also_o by_o the_o visible_a sign_n by_o which_o faith_n proper_o we_o take_v hold_v on_o jesus_n christ_n and_o grow_v together_o in_o he_o v._o where_o the_o word_n of_o the_o institution_n be_v not_o rehearse_v there_o be_v no_o sacrament_n &_o therefore_o without_o use_n they_o be_v nothing_o but_o as_o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n but_o as_o we_o believe_v that_o the_o sign_n be_v add_v to_o the_o word_n not_o for_o superstition_n but_o for_o great_a confirmation_n of_o our_o faith_n so_o also_o that_o the_o word_n in_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v necessary_a not_o to_o charm_v we_o but_o to_o stir_v up_o faith_n in_o we_o so_o that_o where_o the_o

sacrament_n and_o therefore_o we_o affirm_v that_o the_o sign_n without_o the_o lawful_a use_n be_v not_o sacrament_n but_o only_o the_o same_o thing_n which_o they_o be_v of_o their_o own_o nature_n and_o nothing_o else_o for_o the_o sign_n be_v translate_v only_o by_o the_o word_n from_o their_o common_a use_n to_o the_o holy_a use_n that_o which_o many_o call_v to_o be_v consecrate_v &_o hallow_v and_o thereby_o be_v make_v a_o sacrament_n even_o as_o augustine_n say_v the_o word_n come_v to_o the_o element_n and_o the_o sacrament_n be_v make_v it_o come_v indeed_o that_o it_o may_v be_v understand_v and_o believe_v vi_o that_o sacrament_n be_v not_o simple_a mark_n or_o bare_a sign_n therefore_o we_o believe_v that_o these_o sacramental_a sign_n be_v not_o simple_a mark_n which_o only_o do_v sever_v we_o from_o other_o people_n that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o true_a church_n or_o mere_a token_n unto_o we_o of_o our_o christian_n society_n or_o whereby_o we_o shall_v

of_o what_o sort_n we_o also_o confess_v with_o augustine_n 9_o de_fw-fr doct_n chr_n lib._n 3._o cap._n 9_o that_o the_o sacrament_n deliver_v by_o christ_n be_v in_o number_n few_o easy_a to_o be_v

though_o all_o do_v not_o true_o receive_v the_o same_o but_o only_o the_o choose_a faithful_a and_o although_o all_o man_n come_v not_o to_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n with_o faith_n and_o true_a understanding_n yet_o as_o the_o sign_n be_v give_v to_o all_o that_o profess_v christ_n so_o also_o we_o believe_v that_o the_o thing_n signify_v by_o the_o sacrament_n be_v serious_o offer_v unto_o all_o by_o christ_n and_o therefore_o that_o nothing_o be_v diminish_v of_o the_o substance_n or_o soundness_n of_o the_o sacrament_n by_o the_o unbelief_n of_o they_o that_o receive_v the_o sign_n only_o for_o it_o depend_v whole_o upon_o the_o institution_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o word_n x._o while_n the_o sacrament_n be_v minister_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v powerful_a in_o the_o faithful_a &_o therefore_o they_o not_o only_o receive_v the_o sign_n but_o also_o participate_v in_o the_o thing_n signify_v but_o albeit_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o powerful_a in_o all_o man_n on_o who_o the_o sacrament_n be_v bestow_v as_o it_o be_v neither_o to_o all_o unto_o who_o the_o word_n be_v preach_v and_o that_o by_o their_o own_o

with_o faith_n by_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n and_o confirm_v more_o and_o more_o in_o the_o same_o by_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v bring_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n into_o

purge_v from_o sin_n by_o virtue_n of_o christ_n blood_n and_o in_o the_o lord_n supper_n they_o eat_v of_o christ_n true_a flesh_n and_o drink_n of_o his_o true_a blood_n xi_o that_o christ_n be_v both_o author_n and_o true_a disposer_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o we_o acknowledge_v as_o one_o author_n so_o one_o true_a disposer_n of_o the_o sacrament_n even_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n which_o give_v the_o outward_a sign_n by_o man_n his_o minister_n but_o he_o himself_o proper_o and_o true_o impart_v unto_o they_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o sacrament_n effectual_o by_o himself_o

for_o no_o man_n to_o institute_v new_a sacrament_n so_o also_o can_v no_o man_n boast_v that_o he_o true_o and_o proper_o cleanse_v conscience_n of_o sin_n or_o that_o he_o feed_v man_n with_o the_o

to_o be_v give_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o because_o that_o he_o prepare_v the_o way_n to_o this_o &_o as_o tertull._n speak_v that_o baptism_n of_o repentance_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o

the_o holy_a ghost_n hereupon_o be_v it_o that_o meaning_n to_o convince_v they_o that_o they_o be_v not_o baptize_v of_o john_n nor_o of_o his_o true_a disciple_n he_o add_v say_v john_n indeed_o

and_o to_o this_o true_o here_o express_v do_v a_o but_o close_o understand_v make_v answer_n so_o that_o the_o argument_n be_v such_o as_o before_o we_o set_v down_o john_n indeed_o baptize_v &c_n

that_o those_o ephesian_n have_v be_v right_o baptize_v and_o therefore_o that_o nothing_o else_o remain_v but_o that_o by_o lay_v on_o of_o hand_n they_o may_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o
