Quest. 16. Did not Baptism come in the room of Circumcision, Col. 2. 11, 12. and so to be used as it was?
Answ. The Apostles words import not that our Baptism came in the room of the Jews Circumcision, there is no mention of any bodily Circumcision but
Christs, which our Baptism cannot be said to succeed to, as there it is made the cause of Spiritual Circumcision, without arrogating that to it which be∣longs to Christ alone, and Baptism is mentioned with faith, as the means whereby we are in Christ, and compleat in him.
