And this is the sixth bond of the true Churches unity: One Baptism.

Now they break this bond of the Churches unity,* 1.1 that content themselves onely with the Baptism of water, being destitute of the Baptism of the Spirit; and so remain in the uncleanness of all their old corruptions and lusts, and in all the filthiness and pollutions of flesh and spirit; by reason of which they can have no true peace and agreement in heart, and Spirit, and Nature, with those who are cleansed from these pollutions, and are washed and justified purified and sanctified in the name, and by the Spirit of God: For what agreement can there be between them that live in all the corruptions of sinful men, and them that live in the renewing of the Holy Spi∣rit? So that it is not the washing of water, but the washing of the Spirit, that is the true ground of the true Churches unity; and they that want this Baptism of the Spirit, though they have been baptized with water never so much, live quite and clean out of the unity of the Church.
