the_o substance_n be_v necessitate_v to_o deny_v the_o sign_n person_n of_o this_o judgement_n may_v be_v easy_o confute_v for_o when_o ever_o the_o term_n baptism_n be_v mention_v and_o god_n or_o

the_o act_n of_o any_o apostle_n or_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n it_o denote_v waterbaptism_n because_o these_o have_v neither_o power_n nor_o commission_n to_o baptize_v with_o the_o spirit_n and_o with_o fire_n and_o when_o ever_o the_o baptism_n of_o blood_n and_o suffer_v be_v mention_v it_o must_v be_v understand_v of_o persecutor_n or_o ungodly_a man_n who_o murder_n destroy_v or_o

when_o we_o meet_v with_o the_o act_n of_o baptism_n as_o the_o act_n of_o a_o good_a man_n we_o must_v of_o necessity_n understand_v it_o of_o waterbaptism_n in_o the_o same_o method_n and_o mode_n of_o administration_n as_o be_v practise_v by_o the_o apostle_n and_o primitive_a christian_n and_o that_o be_v a_o positive_a institution_n with_o respect_n to_o the_o subject_a and_o manner_n of_o

first_o it_o seem_v to_o bear_v no_o such_o thing_n so_o mat._n 13._o christ_n expound_v that_o parable_n or_o allegory_n for_o though_o rhetorician_n make_v a_o difference_n between_o metaphor_n

son_n of_o man_n etc._n etc._n this_o way_n of_o expound_v such_o dark_a scripture_n be_v both_o useful_a and_o necessary_a and_o be_v often_o use_v as_o edify_v by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n to_o his_o disciple_n now_o it_o be_v this_o we_o speak_v of_o which_o teach_v how_o to_o draw_v plain_a doctrine_n out_o of_o metaphor_n allegory_n etc._n etc._n and_o not_o to_o draw_v allegory_n out_o of_o plain_a history_n second_o it_o may_v be_v ask_v when_o we_o be_v to_o account_v a_o place_n of_o scripture_n figurative_a or_o allegoric_a and_o seek_v some_o other_o meaning_n than_o what_o at_o first_o appear_v answ_n 1._o when_o the_o literal_a proper_a meaning_n look_v absurd-like_a or_o be_v empty_a nothing_o to_o edification_n as_o when_o it_o be_v say_v unless_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v my_o body_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o those_o scripture_n that_o command_v to_o pluck_v out_o the_o right_a eye_n and_o cut_v off_o the_o right_a hand_n take_v up_o our_o cross_n etc._n etc._n all_o which_o if_o literal_o understand_v be_v absurd_a and_o ridiculous_a and_o therefore_o the_o mistake_v such_o scripture_n have_v occasion_v many_o grievous_a error_n as_o that_o of_o the_o anthropomorphites_n attribute_v member_n viz._n head_n hands_z foot_n &c_n &c_n to_o god_n and_o passion_n yea_o infirmity_n as_o anger_n repent_v etc._n etc._n because_o the_o scripture_n in_o such_o place_n speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n metaphorical_o attribute_v such_o thing_n to_o he_o 2._o those_o place_n of_o scripture_n be_v to_o be_v account_v metaphorical_a or_o allegoric_a which_o reach_v not_o the_o scope_n of_o edification_n intend_v by_o they_o if_o literal_o understand_v as_o when_o christ_n speak_v of_o sow_v mat._n 13._o the_o disciple_n think_v something_o more_o be_v intend_v than_o at_o first_o appear_v for_o his_o aim_n can_v not_o be_v to_o discourse_v of_o husbandry_n to_o they_o 3._o when_o a_o literal_a sense_n will_v obtrude_v some_o falsity_n on_o the_o scripture_n than_o such_o place_n be_v to_o be_v take_v allegorical_o as_o when_o christ_n say_v destroy_v this_o temple_n and_o i_o will_v build_v it_o up_o again_o in_o three_o day_n which_o if_o understand_v of_o the_o material_a temple_n christ_n word_n will_v not_o have_v have_v their_o accomplishment_n but_o he_o speak_v figurative_o of_o his_o body_n so_o when_o christ_n say_v except_o a_o man_n eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n he_o can_v live_v it_o can_v be_v understand_v literal_o because_o many_o who_o have_v obtain_v life_n never_o do_v so_o eat_v his_o flesh_n etc._n etc._n 4._o any_o scripture_n be_v to_o be_v account_v figurative_a or_o allegorical_a when_o the_o literal_a sense_n agree_v not_o with_o other_o scripture_n and_o be_v repugnant_a to_o the_o analogy_n of_o faith_n or_o rule_n of_o good_a manner_n as_o when_o we_o be_v command_v to_o heap_v coal_n of_o fire_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o our_o enemy_n now_o we_o be_v require_v not_o to_o avenge_v ourselves_o it_o follow_v clear_o this_o scripture_n be_v not_o proper_o or_o literal_o understand_v 5._o when_o a_o literal_a sense_n answer_v not_o to_o the_o present_a scope_n of_o the_o speaker_n and_o the_o speaker_n will_v be_v think_v impertinent_a if_o his_o word_n be_v proper_o take_v then_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v
