unto_o his_o father_n for_o a_o blessing_n to_o be_v bestow_v upon_o the_o receive_n of_o it_o not_o only_o upon_o those_o that_o be_v then_o present_a but_o upon_o all_o that_o shall_v afterward_o

be_v that_o the_o virtue_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o sacrament_n 6._o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v from_o god_n own_o hand_n see_v the_o sermon_n on_o john_n the_o 6._o be_v from_o god_n own_o hand_n through_o the_o mediation_n of_o christ_n jesus_n god_n give_v it_o and_o christ_n procure_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o unto_o his_o people_n and_o this_o be_v common_a to_o all_o other_o ordinance_n and_o service_n with_o the_o sacrament_n to_o this_o purpose_n it_o be_v say_v that_o moses_n give_v not_o that_o manna_n unto_o the_o israelite_n in_o the_o wilderness_n from_o heaven_n doct._n 5_o but_o my_o father_n say_v christ_n give_v you_o the_o true_a bread_n 6.32.33_o john_n 6.32.33_o which_o give_v life_n unto_o the_o world_n that_o no_o minister_n nor_o creature_n in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n can_v bestow_v upon_o any_o first_o reasins_z 1_o one_o general_a reason_n of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v that_o every_o good_a give_v and_o every_o perfect_a gift_n be_v from_o above_o and_o come_v down_o from_o the_o father_n of_o light_n 1.17_o james_n 1.17_o now_o what_o more_o excellent_a &_o perfect_a gift_n can_v there_o be_v then_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o if_o god_n be_v the_o author_n and_o giver_n of_o all_o other_o good_a thing_n this_o must_v of_o necessity_n proceed_v from_o his_o bounty_n in_o a_o special_a manner_n a_o second_o cause_n why_o god_n will_v have_v the_o dispose_n of_o his_o grace_n in_o his_o own_o hand_n be_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o difference_n between_o he_o and_o all_o his_o minister_n and_o that_o he_o may_v retain_v that_o prerogative_n for_o christ_n jesus_n alone_o for_o he_o it_o be_v that_o give_v the_o meat_n which_o endure_v to_o everlasting_a life_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o father_n have_v seal_v he_o that_o be_v the_o lord_n have_v authorize_v he_o by_o the_o broad_a seal_n of_o heaven_n and_o will_v et_fw-fr none_n to_o be_v copartner_n with_o he_o in_o that_o office_n he_o be_v the_o lord_n treasurer_n of_o all_o grace_n and_o therefore_o he_o must_v bless_v his_o ordinance_n unto_o we_o if_o ever_o we_o look_v for_o benefit_n thereby_o in_o which_o regard_n john_n baptist_n say_v i_o baptize_v you_o with_o water_n &_o that_o be_v all_o that_o he_o can_v do_v as_o for_o wash_v of_o the_o heart_n and_o purge_v of_o the_o conscience_n that_o he_o attribute_v whole_o unto_o christ_n jesus_n 3.11_o matth._n 3.11_o he_o will_v baptize_v you_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n john_n will_v not_o arrogate_v that_o unto_o himself_o lest_o he_o shall_v treacherous_o lay_v claim_n to_o that_o which_o be_v proper_a unto_o the_o crown_n the_o like_a faithfulness_n in_o give_v god_n his_o due_n we_o see_v in_o the_o apostle_n paul_n who_o say_v i_o have_v plant_v apollo_n water_v 3.6_o 1_o cor._n 3.6_o but_o god_n give_v the_o increase_n thereby_o intimate_v that_o the_o best_a minister_n be_v but_o as_o gardener_n in_o the_o lord_n church_n they_o can_v but_o put_v the_o stion_n into_o the_o stock_n or_o the_o root_n into_o the_o ground_n and_o as_o possible_a it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o make_v a_o tree_n as_o for_o a_o minister_n to_o make_v a_o christian_a and_o as_o possible_a to_o put_v sap_n into_o a_o dead_a block_n and_o to_o make_v it_o grow_v and_o flourish_v and_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n in_o abundance_n as_o for_o a_o minister_n to_o put_v into_o any_o the_o least_o drop_n of_o grace_n or_o to_o add_v any_o whit_n unto_o it_o where_o it_o be_v already_o wrought_v three_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o sacrament_n to_o be_v in_o his_o own_o power_n to_o bestow_v where_o &_o how_o he_o will_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o difference_n between_o communicant_n to_o wit_n between_o the_o good_a and_o the_o bad_a if_o it_o be_v in_o man_n hand_n to_o dispose_v and_o do_v consist_v in_o the_o deed_n do_v as_o ignorant_a papist_n imagine_v man_n will_v bestow_v it_o promiscuous_o and_o wicked_a hypocrite_n shall_v have_v as_o good_a a_o share_n as_o those_o that_o be_v true_o religious_a and_o the_o worst_a speed_n as_o well_o as_o the_o best_a for_o man_n can_v search_v the_o heart_n of_o their_o people_n to_o see_v with_o what_o prepararation_n they_o come_v and_o there_o be_v that_o love_n in_o they_o which_o be_v a_o thing_n commendable_a that_o they_o desire_v all_o may_v be_v fave_v if_o moses_n can_v have_v give_v every_o man_n in_o israel_n grace_n when_o he_o give_v they_o the_o manna_n he_o will_v have_v do_v it_o he_o that_o can_v have_v be_v content_a that_o his_o name_n shall_v be_v raze_v out_o of_o the_o book_n of_o life_n for_o their_o sake_n will_v not_o have_v stick_v with_o they_o for_o such_o a_o

unto_o they_o and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o and_o he_o have_v praise_v god_n for_o give_v it_o unto_o his_o people_n and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a neither_o their_o
