Wh; 12a » Wy bis diſlike, that his Doarine ſhould be ſo perverted ; and partly to Fi: few his own Sence, that he was far from ſuch a thought. > Cod foihid 6: How c ſhall we that ate dead to {in d, l've any longer therein e. | 5 Be it not, or, far be it ; he reje&s any ſuch Inference or Con- ſequence, as unworthy of an Anſwer. 9.4. Away with all ſuch Dodrines as under pretence of advancing Grace, do promote 5, or obtruR a Godly Life, This Phraſe is frequent with the Apoſtle, when he is ſpeaking of any abſurdity, wid. chap. 3. 4,6, 31. © By this Particle How, he ſhews the Impotlibility, or the Incongruity of the thing. via. Mat. 5. 28. Gal. 4. 9. The following Argument iS very cont incing, and may be thus form'd. They whole Property ir is to be dead ro ſin, can't any longer live therem, but the juſtiped vy Faith, are neal to ſin: d They are ſaid to be dead to ſew, who don't 1;- under the Power and Dominion of it ; who Mortitte Sin, and ſuffer it (ſo far as they can) to have no Life or Power 1n it. £e Fall into it they may, bur live and lie in it they can't. Tis not falling into the Warer that Prowns a Man, bur "ris his Iying in it ; 1o is not falling into Sin that Damns a Man, but it is his {wing 11 18, i Or, are. 3 Know ye not f, that lo many of us as {| WEre baptized * * 5nto Jeſus Chriſt 5, were baptized into his death 4 ?
f 9. d. This is a Truth which you ought not to be ignorant of ; and which Confirms whatI ſay. g To be Baptiz'd into Corift, 15 Cl- ther to be Bapriz'd in the Name of Chriſt, vid. AF. 10. 48. and 19. 5. Orelſc ir is to be Incorporated, Ingraffed, or Planted inzo Chriſt ; and ſo to be made Members of his Myſtical Beay by Baptiſm. h To be Baptized into the death of Chrif, is to bave F ellowſhip with Him 1n his death, or to have the Efficacy of his death Sealed UP TO Us; and that is the bleſſed Privilege of as many as are Baprizen, 'Or Planted into Chriſt ; They are not only Partakers of the Merit of his death for Juſtification, bur of the Efficacy of his death for | lortihcation. See a Parallel place. Gal. 3. 27. ; :
4 Thrcio-e 7 we are buried with him & by baptiſm / into death, that * like as Chriſt was raifed up from the dead » by the glory of the Father », * even ſo we alſo Phil.z 1c, ſhould walk in newneſs of lite « | I. 7 9.4. Becauſe we are thus DeadwithChriſt therefore,&-c.k i.e. Wehave * Eph. 4. Communion with Him in hrs burial alto, which repreſents a farther
degree of the Deſtruttion of tin, by putting it (as it were) out of our ſight, Gen. 23- 4. 1! Some think he alludes here to the man- .ner of baptizing in thoſe warm Eaſtern Countries, which was to Plung or Dip the Party baptized under Water. Others think, with oreater Reaſon, that this Phraſe-is uſed tro ſignifie that Union and Communion which believers have with Chriſt in his death and 6urzal, which is ſignified by pouring Water on a Perſon (like Earth or Duſt on a dead Body,) and not as by Dipping him under Water. * See the like Phraſe, Col. 2.12. Baptiſm doth not only repreſent our Mortification and Dcath to ſin, but our Progreſs and Perle- verance in Mortification ; Burial implies a continuing under Death, ſo is Mortification a continual dying unto fin, m Look as after the death and burial of Chrift, there follow'd his Reſurredion ; fo it mult be with us: We muſt have Communion with, and Conformity to the Lerd Jeſus Chriſt in kis Reſurrefion, as well as his Death ; both
