I. Seeing Baptism is our visible initiation into Christianity, we must there begin; and see what of this is there contained. Mat. 28.19. Baptizing them into the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, Mar. 16.16. He that believeth, and is baptized, shall be saved, Act. 2.38. Repent, and be Baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the Remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. See Acts 8.36, 37, 38. The Eunuch's Faith and Baptism. Act. 22.16. Arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, having called on the name of the Lord. Rom. 6.3. So many as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his death. Gal. 3.27. As many as have been baptized into Christ, have put on Christ. 1. Pet. 3.21. The like whereunto, Baptism doth also now save us, (not the putting away the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good Conscience towards God) by the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Rom. 4.24, 25. But for us also to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead: who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our Justification. [Quaer. How far Christ's Resurrection is imputed to us.]
