his_o body_n shall_v be_v carry_v out_o of_o egypt_n as_o it_o be_v go_v to_o jerusalem_n in_o pilgrimage_n there_o to_o meet_v christ_n at_o his_o come_n and_o not_o to_o trouble_v myself_o with_o

great_a mystery_n of_o the_o trinity_n take_v one_o instance_n for_o all_o when_o god_n do_v deliver_v his_o people_n out_o of_o egypt_n with_o so_o many_o wonder_n and_o miracle_n and_o that_o he_o give_v the_o law_n and_o use_v the_o ministry_n of_o angel_n yet_o notwithstanding_o at_o that_o time_n moses_n out_o of_o the_o certainty_n of_o his_o hope_n shall_v use_v these_o word_n mitte_fw-la

needs_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o he_o must_v be_v great_a than_o moses_n great_a than_o the_o angel_n who_o be_v then_o employ_v great_a than_o all_o the_o command_n of_o god_n which_o be_v then_o to_o be_v deliver_v to_o his_o people_n and_o his_o work_n and_o employment_n must_v be_v great_a than_o their_o deliverance_n from_o egypt_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v a_o freedom_n and_o liberty_n from_o the_o captivity_n of_o sin_n hell_n and_o damnation_n and_o the_o conduct_v of_o we_o to_o that_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n the_o true_a land_n of_o promise_n which_o be_v a_o work_n and_o employment_n only_o fit_a for_o the_o deity_n many_o other_o type_n may_v be_v produce_v suppose_v the_o three_o child_n in_o the_o christ._n fire_n all_o praise_v god_n with_o one_o

they_o see_v one_o among_o they_o like_o the_o son_n of_o god_n so_o here_o be_v not_o only_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o son_n but_o as_o if_o they_o have_v know_v he_o by_o his_o face_n and_o

tend_v only_o to_o christ_n and_o therefore_o must_v undoubted_o assure_v we_o that_o he_o can_v be_v no_o less_o than_o god_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v think_v that_o god_n will_v rest_v satisfy_v with_o the_o slaughter_n of_o unreasonable_a creature_n we_o must_v think_v it_o to_o be_v a_o very_a unreasonable_a service_n and_o we_o can_v imagine_v that_o god_n service_n shall_v be_v direct_v to_o any_o other_o end_n but_o himself_o which_o must_v enforce_v the_o deity_n of_o christ._n but_o further_o you_o shall_v observe_v that_o whereas_o the_o form_n of_o our_o baptism_n baptism_n be_v that_o we_o be_v baptise_a in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o baptism_n be_v water_n and_o therein_o we_o make_v a_o profession_n of_o the_o trinity_n certain_o the_o jew_n have_v a_o tradition_n that_o the_o messiah_n shall_v institute_v baptism_n in_o this_o manner_n for_o whereas_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n write_v in_o scripture_n yet_o the_o priest_n and_o the_o levite_n do_v send_v to_o saint_n john_n baptist_n to_o know_v whether_o he_o be_v the_o m●…ssias_n or_o not_o and_o if_o he_o be_v not_o then_o why_o he_o do_v baptise_v in_o token_n and_o memory_n hereof_o some_o there_o be_v who_o keep_v water_v pot_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o jew_n s._n john_n 20._o and_o this_o be_v do_v likewise_o by_o tradition_n for_o they_o have_v no_o warrant_n in_o scripture_n joh._n 5._o to_o the_o message_n of_o the_o priest_n and_o to_o the_o common_a custom_n of_o jew_n give_v baptism_n i_o leave_v to_o add_v that_o miraculous_a pool_n of_o bethesda_n john_n the_o 5_o where_o the_o angel_n come_v down_o at_o a_o certain_a season_n and_o move_v the_o water_n and_o such_o as_o take_v the_o first_o opportunity_n to_o be_v let_v into_o the_o water_n be_v cure_v of_o all_o their_o disease_n this_o first_o let_v down_o do_v only_o betoken_v their_o watchfulness_n their_o zeal_n their_o strength_n of_o faith_n and_o how_o the_o endeavour_n of_o man_n must_v concur_v cooperate_v and_o correspond_v with_o god_n goodness_n and_o providence_n here_o than_o we_o have_v the_o matter_n of_o baptism_n the_o element_n of_o water_n several_a time_n intimate_v shall_v we_o then_o think_v that_o the_o jew_n be_v utter_o ignorant_a of_o the_o form_n which_o be_v no_o less_o than_o the_o profession_n or_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o bless_a trinity_n certain_o as_o they_o have_v type_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o one_o so_o they_o may_v have_v a_o obscure_a knowledge_n of_o the_o other_o and_o this_o i_o do_v rather_o believe_v because_o at_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n when_o the_o three_o person_n do_v so_o manifest_o discover_v themselves_o for_o there_o be_v vox_fw-la patris_fw-la this_o be_v my_o well_o belove_a son_n there_o be_v the_o person_n of_o the_o son_n and_o there_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o dove_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o this_o seem_v any_o way_n new_a or_o strange_a to_o saint_n john_n baptist_n who_o certain_o if_o he_o have_v be_v utter_o ignorant_a will_v have_v be_v strange_o strike_v with_o astonishment_n and_o admiration_n of_o this_o so_o great_a a_o mystery_n then_o reveal_v matter_n but_o saint_n john_n not_o content_v himself_o with_o that_o present_a mystery_n take_v it_o as_o grant_v he_o point_v out_o a_o further_a mystery_n when_o this_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v become_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n and_o be_v make_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o satisfy_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n ecce_fw-la agnus_fw-la dei_fw-la qui_fw-la tollit_fw-la peccata_fw-la mundi_fw-la now_o it_o be_v not_o credible_a that_o the_o jew_n shall_v have_v so_o many_o token_n and_o such_o use_n of_o the_o element_n of_o water_n as_o the_o matter_n of_o baptism_n and_o shall_v be_v utter_o ignorant_a without_o any_o the_o least_o intimation_n or_o notice_n of_o the_o form_n of_o baptism_n which_o be_v the_o profession_n of_o the_o trinity_n and_o to_o conclude_v how_o often_o do_v we_o read_v in_o scripture_n verbum_fw-la domini_fw-la venit_fw-la ad_fw-la prophetas_fw-la spiritus_fw-la domini_fw-la replevit_fw-la orbem_fw-la terrarum_fw-la which_o very_a phrase_n seem_v to_o imply_v pers●…ns_n in_o the_o deity_n i_o will_v yet_o further_o proceed_v certain_o at_o the_o time_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n they_o sacrifice_n do_v use_v prayer_n only_o to_o that_o effect_n that_o god_n will_v send_v down_o his_o son_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o world_n for_o in_o scripture_n there_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v what_o prayer_n they_o use_v in_o the_o time_n of_o sacrifice_n but_o it_o be_v hence_o gather_v luk._n 1._o when_o zachary_n be_v sacrifice_v the_o angel_n say_v unto_o he_o thy_o prayer_n be_v hear_v but_o what_o these_o prayer_n be_v do_v not_o yet_o appear_v m●…rk_v then_o by_o the_o success_n and_o so_o you_o shall_v know_v the_o effect_n of_o he_o and_o their_o prayer_n which_o be_v that_o the_o angel_n gabriel_n tell_v he_o that_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o son_n who_o shall_v be_v the_o forerunner_n to_o the_o messiah_n who_o be_v the_o expectation_n of_o nation_n and_o the_o same_o angel_n a_o little_a after_o carry_v another_o message_n to_o the_o bless_a virgin_n for_o her_o conception_n of_o christ_n so_o then_o here_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o their_o prayer_n at_o the_o time_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n that_o god_n will_v has●…en_v his_o own_o come_n and_o no_o long_o feed_v they_o with_o type_n but_o it_o do_v most_o especial_o appear_v in_o the_o cessation_n of_o the_o law_n which_o law_n fall_v out_o at_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n it_o must_v needs_o argue_v that_o christ_n can_v be_v no_o less_o than_o the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o god_n for_o you_o shall_v understand_v that_o about_o a_o full_a age_n before_o the_o birth_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v a_o cessation_n of_o prophet_n and_o god_n send_v no_o message_n to_o his_o people_n as_o when_o the_o sun_n arise_v the_o star_n be_v obscure_v so_o lest_o the_o jew_n may_v take_v any_o of_o god_n
