Baptist.

No? did I not shew you sufficiently above in what cases particular examples do prove, what the general primitive practise was, and may be argued from as from a general rule of what ever ought to be viz. when that, or those particu∣lar practises are enjoined to all as well as to some, in one and the same word of righteousnesse, but specially when propounded as paterns, and written as rules for our instruction, and such are both these baptismes of Christ and the Eunuch, which had never been recorded, but for our learning and for examples sake unto us, in which respect, though he needed no baptism, as we do, to be a token to baptism, for howbeit it was partly, and perhaps primarily, to fulfill all the righ∣teousnesse of his own law, as well as of Moses Law, in his own person, as he te∣stifies it became him to do in Mat. 3. for he exacts, and expects no more obedi∣ence to himself, and the father either active or passive from us, then he acted and yielded to the father first himself, yet was he baptized partly also to the same end, in order to which he did all things else, that he either did or endured, which was imitable, and remaining for us to do after him, as baptism is viz. that he might leave us, who are so often charged to follow him, an example that we should fol∣low his steps Mat. 16.24. 1 Pet. 2.21.
