VVherin differ the Baptisme of Iohn Baptist, and of Christ or his Apostles, or those Ministers that followed them?

Not in the Author, in substance, in doctrine, in signe, or cere∣monie, neither yet in effect, or signification. For the same sacra∣ment is instituted of God, and the same forgiuenesse, of sinnes, and grace of the holy Ghost is signified, offered, and sealed, whether it bee Iohn that administer, or the Apostles, or the sucee∣ding Ministersa 1.1.

The onely difference is, touching the verie circumstance, and maner of the manifesting of Christ: for the same baptisme ia called Iohns, because he baptised first, and Christs, because baptisme hath respect vnto him. Again, Iohn baptised into him which came im∣mediatly after him, that is, into Christ, who should shortly suffer, & rise againb 1.2. But the Apostles, & after thē all Minsters now bap∣tise into Christ that hath suffered, and is risen againe.
