ARGUMENT XIV.
Mr. Blake. All of those that professedly embrace a Gospel-tender, in which there is a conditional Promise of Justification, Adoption, Glorification, have right in the sight of God to all Ordinances, ordinarily necessary and requisite to bring them up to these conditions, and to the fruition of these glorious Privileges, and consequently to baptism the leading privilege. This none can deny that know the readiness of Christ, in imparting saving ordinances to a People.
