Acts10:47

47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

This question, as Chap. 8.36. is without question, and denies that any can forbid Water, that is in order to Baptize such as these. As if the Apostle had argued thus▪ They that have the Grace signified or promised, have a right unto the Seal of the promise: But these Gentiles have the Grace [illegible: 1 letter]ignified or promised in Baptism; they had the inward part, and therefore the outward part could not be denied unto them. He that hath the Inheritance, may claim the Writings, Wax, and Parchmtnt that belong unto it.
