Thus
it is in Ba-
ptifine; we muff know
that there
is
an aétion
of
man reaching
to the
flefh,
the
wafhing away
of
the
filth
of
it,
t
Pet.3.21. and an
action
of
God,
which wafheth the
confcience
from the guilt
of
dead works
; a
Baptifine
of
Water
and
of
the Spirit, outward
and
inward.
Not
that
there
are
two
Baptifines
,
but there
is
one Baptifine, which
is
diftin-
guifhed into
the outward
and inward
actions,

as
when we conceive thus
of
man
as

ward,
we
do not
multiply men,
but do confider

And
this
muff be
marked, that
God may not be robbed

his

glory,
that the
Papifts and Lutherans crrours may be avoided
:
The
Papifts will have
the
Minifters action lifted up
by God, to the

of

But
then
it
could not be truly
faid
,
that
the
removall
of
corruption from the Spirit, were not done
by
the hand
of
man
:
As becaufe

it cannot be truly

,
we mutt look that we
