VVith a description of the true marks and characters thereof; which being manifested and declared, is the true and proper ground of visible communion, in which the sons or children of God are to receive and own one another as brethren, although they differ (for want of light) in some particular ordinances.

of_o john_n 58._o before_o abram_n be_v i_o be_o and_o this_o be_v that_o every_o one_o that_o come_v to_o god_n must_v believe_v according_a to_o that_o in_o the_o 11_o to_o the_o hebrew_n and_o 6_o verse_n he_o that_o come_v to_o god_n must_v believe_v that_o he_o be_v 2._o what_o it_o be_v to_o believe_v on_o his_o name_n be_v to_o make_v all_o jesus_n christ_n the_o only_a object_n of_o our_o faith_n now_o i_o shall_v show_v what_o the_o word_n believe_v do_v signify_v and_o import_v and_o then_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o use_n that_o the_o doctrine_n hold_v forth_o the_o word_n do_v proper_o signify_v when_o it_o be_v speak_v in_o relation_n to_o christ_n a_o faithful_a believe_a of_o he_o a_o put_v our_o trust_n and_o confidence_n in_o he_o and_o to_o commit_v all_o to_o he_o so_o now_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o doctrinal_a part_n and_o shall_v proceed_v by_o way_n of_o use_n and_o the_o first_o be_v this_o if_o this_o be_v so_o that_o true_a faith_n and_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o infallible_a character_n and_o mark_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o child_n of_o god_n as_o have_v be_v plain_o prove_v 1_o use_v information_n a_o use_n of_o information_n why_o then_o it_o may_v inform_v all_o true_a believer_n that_o they_o be_v brethren_n and_o this_o do_v clear_o appear_v from_o the_o doctrine_n as_o it_o have_v be_v open_v that_o all_o true_a believer_n be_v those_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n and_o all_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n brethren_n all_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v brethren_n and_o all_o that_o be_v son_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o be_v brethren_n for_o this_o be_v the_o true_a and_o proper_a ground_n of_o brotherhood_n the_o be_v child_n of_o one_o father_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n the_o ten_o son_n of_o jacob_n do_v declare_v to_o joseph_n that_o they_o be_v brethren_n by_o be_v the_o son_n of_o one_o man_n gen._n 42.13_o now_o forasmuch_o as_o true_a faith_n be_v a_o character_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n and_o of_o sonship_n and_o sonship_n the_o true_a ground_n of_o brotherhood_n it_o will_v undeniable_o follow_v that_o where_o true_a faith_n be_v manifest_v they_o be_v son_n of_o god_n and_o upon_o that_o account_n we_o ought_v that_o be_v believer_n to_o own_v they_o to_o be_v our_o brethren_n quest_n but_o then_o the_o question_n will_v be_v how_o be_v true_a faith_n manifest_v 1._o i_o answer_v in_o two_o thing_n particular_n faith_n manifest_v in_o two_o particular_n first_o by_o confession_n with_o the_o mouth_n as_o in_o the_o 10_o rom._n 10._o with_o the_o heart_n man_n believe_v unto_o righteousness_n and_o with_o the_o mouth_n confession_n be_v make_v unto_o salvation_n 2._o faith_n be_v declare_v by_o good_a work_n as_o in_o the_o 2_o of_o james_n 18._o i_o will_v show_v thou_o my_o faith_n by_o my_o work_n but_o what_o be_v the_o good_a work_n that_o the_o apostle_n do_v here_o mind_n to_o manifest_a faith_n why_o they_o be_v employ_v in_o the_o 15_o 16_o verse_n that_o if_o a_o brother_n or_o sister_n be_v naked_a and_o destitute_a of_o of_o daily_a food_n to_o feed_v they_o and_o to_o clothe_v they_o and_o not_o only_o to_o say_v be_v fill_v and_o be_v warm_v and_o not_o to_o give_v they_o that_o which_o be_v needful_a for_o the_o body_n and_o compare_v this_o with_o the_o 27_o verse_n of_o the_o 1_o chapter_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o pure_a religion_n and_o undefiled_a before_o god_n and_o the_o father_n be_v this_o to_o visit_v the_o fatherless_a and_o widow_n in_o their_o affliction_n and_o to_o keep_v himself_o unspotted_a from_o the_o world_n and_o thus_o i_o have_v show_v you_o how_o true_a faith_n be_v manifest_v namely_o by_o confession_n and_o good_a work_n and_o where_o faith_n be_v thus_o manifest_v in_o or_o by_o any_o person_n it_o be_v a_o visible_a mark_n of_o their_o sonship_n and_o therefore_o ought_v visible_o to_o be_v own_v as_o brethren_n and_o i_o shall_v say_v to_o every_o believe_a soul_n as_o peter_n do_v in_o another_o case_n concern_v the_o believe_a gentile_n in_o the_o 10_o of_o the_o act_n 47._o can_v any_o forbid_v water_n that_o these_o shall_v not_o be_v baptize_v that_o have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o well_o as_o we_o so_o say_v i_o can_v any_o forbid_v that_o those_o shall_v not_o be_v own_v our_o brethren_n that_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o we_o but_o it_o may_v be_v object_v by_o some_o ob._n 1_o ob._n that_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o those_o that_o believe_v be_v baptize_v and_o the_o scripture_n put_v faith_n and_o baptism_n together_o and_o we_o can_v judge_v person_n visible_o to_o be_v our_o brethren_n until_o they_o have_v submit_v to_o christ_n by_o baptism_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v an._n an._n that_o although_o baptism_n be_v command_v by_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o every_o believer_n to_o practice_v after_o faith_n receive_v and_o not_o to_o be_v neglect_v when_o the_o lord_n give_v they_o light_n to_o see_v it_o to_o be_v their_o duty_n according_a to_o that_o in_o the_o 22_o of_o act_n 16._o arise_v why_o tarie_v thou_o yet_o i_o never_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n do_v ever_o declare_v baptism_n to_o be_v the_o great_a character_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n or_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n neither_o do_v i_o find_v that_o the_o lord_n do_v limit_v person_n that_o have_v receive_v precious_a faith_n that_o because_o they_o be_v not_o enlighten_v in_o their_o duty_n to_o be_v baptize_v that_o they_o must_v not_o therefore_o practice_v that_o which_o they_o be_v enlighten_v in_o and_o persuade_v of_o and_o that_o because_o some_o of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v babe_n and_o know_v but_o little_a it_o may_v be_v in_o some_o particular_a ordinance_n of_o christ_n that_o therefore_o they_o must_v not_o be_v own_v to_o be_v brethren_n by_o those_o that_o know_v more_o and_o certain_o if_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o limit_v person_n in_o this_o particular_a not_o man_n ought_v not_o to_o limit_v where_o god_n do_v not_o man_n ought_v not_o but_o god_n do_v rather_o command_v the_o contrary_a in_o the_o 14_o rom._n 1._o he_o that_o be_v weak_a in_o the_o faith_n receive_v you_o if_o they_o have_v faith_n though_o but_o weak_a they_o ought_v to_o be_v receive_v and_o to_o walk_v so_o far_o as_o they_o have_v attain_v phil._n 3.16_o but_o it_o may_v be_v further_o object_v ob._n 2_o ob._n that_o the_o person_n before_o speak_v of_o do_v not_o only_o neglect_v a_o duty_n in_o that_o they_o submit_v not_o to_o christ_n by_o baptism_n but_o they_o uphold_v a_o tradition_n of_o man_n which_o be_v not_o where_o command_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n namely_o the_o sprinkle_n of_o infant_n which_o be_v a_o relic_n of_o antichrist_n and_o shall_v we_o own_o such_o to_o be_v brethren_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v an._n 1_o an._n that_o the_o uphold_v of_o one_o antichristian_a point_n for_o want_n of_o light_n do_v not_o disannul_v person_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o not_o uncapable_a to_o be_v our_o brethren_n but_o we_o find_v in_o scripture_n that_o there_o be_v some_o that_o do_v hold_v a_o antichristian_a point_n for_o want_n of_o light_n which_o be_v command_v to_o be_v receive_v and_o own_a as_o brethren_n in_o the_o 14._o rom._n 1._o the_o apostle_n command_v that_o those_o that_o be_v weak_a in_o the_o faith_n shall_v be_v receive_v now_o the_o question_n be_v wherein_o the_o weakness_n of_o their_o faith_n do_v consist_v why_o it_o do_v appear_v in_o the_o follow_a verse_n it_o be_v in_o this_o that_o they_o do_v observe_v day_n and_o meat_n which_o ceremony_n christ_n have_v abolish_v and_o make_v void_a by_o his_o death_n now_o to_o observe_v those_o thing_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v abolish_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n such_o a_o act_n do_v in_o the_o tendancy_n of_o it_o deny_v jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o whosoever_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v come_v in_o the_o flesh_n be_v a_o antichrist_n 1_o john_n 4.3_o but_o this_o be_v for_o want_n of_o light_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n will_v have_v the_o saint_n to_o bear_v one_o with_o another_o 2._o an._n 2_o an._n i_o answer_v that_o those_o that_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o for_o want_v of_o light_n may_v hold_v some_o thing_n which_o in_o the_o tendancy_n of_o they_o may_v be_v antichristian_a this_o aught_o to_o be_v a_o motive_n to_o prevail_v upon_o those_o that_o be_v
