5. Cyprian Epist. 23. Nam cum Dominus dixerit in nomine Patris, Filii & Spiritus ⟨p. 96⟩sancti gentes tingi, & in Baptismo, praeterita peccata dimitti, &c. And Epist. 2. §. 2. Sed postquam unde genitalis auxilio superioris aevi labe detersa, in expiatum pectus ac purum desuper see lumen infudit, postquam caelitus spiritu hausto in novum me hominem Nativitas Secunda reparavit, &c. But it is so well known a Case, that Antiquity runs wholly this way, that I think I may spare the labour of transcribing any more. I had at hand the full testimonies of Clemens Alexand. Origen, Epiphanius, Athanasius, Lactantius, Nazianzen, Nyssen, Basil, Cyril of Alexandria, Cyril of Jerusalem, Synesius, Hierom, Macarius, Eusebius, with divers others, which I now cast by as tedious and unnecessary, but shall produce quickly, if I once find it of any use. Yet two or three brief ones I will add, which show that it is the Covenanting or Professing of true Obedience, and consequently of a lively working Faith that is required, and not the profession of an unsound faith only.
