A89563	A defence of infant-baptism: in answer to two treatises, and an appendix to them concerning it; lately published by Mr. Jo. Tombes. Wherein that controversie is fully discussed, the ancient and generally received use of it from the apostles dayes, untill the Anabaptists sprung up in Germany, manifested. The arguments for it from the holy Scriptures maintained, and the objections against it answered. / By Steven Marshall B.D. minister of the Gospell, at Finchingfield in Essex.

consequence_n i_o add_v far_o that_o almost_o all_o both_o ancient_a and_o modern_a do_v agree_v in_o the_o argument_n from_o circumcision_n to_o baptism_n which_o necessary_o imply_v our_o covenant_n to_o be_v the_o same_o with_o they_o our_o infant_n right_a to_o be_v the_o same_o with_o they_o and_o our_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n to_o be_v the_o same_o with_o they_o of_o circumcision_n as_o to_o the_o use_n of_o a_o initial_a seal_n your_o twelve_o and_o last_o argument_n which_o bring_v up_o your_o rear_n which_o you_o call_v a_o weighty_a reason_n run_v thus_o because_o infant-baptisme_n 12._o seem_v to_o take_v away_o one_o perhaps_o the_o primary_n end_n of_o baptism_n viz._n that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o sign_n that_o the_o baptize_v show_v himself_o a_o disciple_n and_o confess_v the_o faith_n in_o which_o he_o have_v be_v instruct_v and_o this_o you_o prove_v from_o john_n the_o baptist_n and_o other_o passage_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o put_v baptism_n for_o doctrine_n from_o the_o form_n of_o christ_n institution_n and_o by_o the_o use_n of_o baptism_n in_o the_o initiate_a of_o proselyte_n and_o hence_o you_o collect_v that_o baptism_n do_v not_o only_o confirm_v a_o benefit_n but_o signify_v also_o a_o profession_n make_v to_o which_o i_o answer_v this_o argument_n how_o weighty_a soever_o it_o be_v be_v but_o a_o branch_n take_v from_o your_o second_o argument_n out_o of_o mat._n 28._o and_o from_o your_o three_o argument_n from_o the_o practice_n of_o john_n and_o christ_n apostle_n and_o be_v but_o a_o crambe_n of_o what_o

you_o assent_n and_o consequent_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o needful_a according_a to_o the_o word_n but_o a_o visible_a right_n and_o than_o what_o be_v become_v of_o all_o your_o plead_n that_o because_o we_o can_v know_v that_o all_o infant_n of_o believer_n have_v the_o inward_a grace_n we_o may_v not_o therefore_o baptize_v they_o this_o hold_v you_o have_v now_o quit_v and_o when_o once_o you_o have_v prove_v that_o they_o have_v not_o a_o visible_a right_n to_o be_v reckon_v and_o account_v to_o belong_v to_o the_o visible_a church_n i_o promise_v you_o to_o quit_v all_o i_o whereas_o i_o add_v that_o i_o doubt_v whether_o in_o case_n peter_n or_o paul_n can_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n have_v know_v that_o ananias_n or_o alexander_n will_v have_v prove_v no_o

admit_v who_o in_o the_o event_n prove_v no_o better_a than_o those_o be_v you_o think_v they_o will_v and_o ought_v because_o the_o end_n of_o such_o a_o extraordinary_a revelation_n will_v be_v to_o warn_v they_o not_o to_o admit_v such_o person_n i_o answer_v the_o cause_n depend_v not_o upon_o it_o whether_o your_o conjecture_n or_o i_o be_v right_a in_o this_o particular_a and_o i_o confess_v shall_v such_o a_o extraordinary_a revelation_n be_v make_v purposely_o to_o warn_v they_o not_o to_o admit_v such_o person_n that_o will_v be_v equivalent_a to_o a_o prohibition_n but_o may_v not_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v reveal_v for_o other_o end_n christ_n know_v that_o judas_n will_v prove_v a_o devil_n yet_o he_o admit_v he_o not_o only_o to_o baptism_n but_o apostleship_n and_o since_o yourself_o do_v grant_v that_o we_o have_v a_o warrant_n de_fw-fr fide_fw-la out_o of_o faith_n and_o not_o out_o of_o charity_n only_o to_o admit_v man_n into_o visible_a communion_n by_o baptism_n upon_o a_o external_a confession_n only_o i_o can_v understand_v why_o my_o private_a knowledge_n upon_o a_o particular_a revelation_n of_o a_o man_n inward_a condition_n shall_v be_v a_o sufficient_a bar_n against_o proceed_v according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a rule_n if_o i_o be_v infallible_o assure_v that_o some_o glorious_a professor_n be_v no_o better_a than_o a_o hypocrite_n be_v that_o sufficient_a warrant_n to_o deny_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n to_o he_o so_o long_o as_o his_o life_n be_v unblamable_a before_o the_o church_n last_o i_o add_v that_o in_o this_o the_o rule_n to_o direct_v our_o knowledge_n be_v as_o plain_a for_o infant_n as_o for_o grow_v man_n the_o rule_n have_v be_v always_o this_o that_o grow_v man_n who_o be_v stranger_n from_o the_o covenant_n of_o god_n pagan_n or_o heathen_n shall_v upon_o their_o be_v instruct_v and_o upon_o profession_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o promise_v to_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v receive_v and_o add_v to_o the_o church_n and_o make_v partaker_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o admission_n and_o their_o infant_n to_o come_v in_o with_o they_o both_o sort_n upon_o

of_o any_o of_o they_o your_o only_a exception_n against_o this_o be_v wonder_v that_o i_o dare_v say_v the_o rule_n to_o direct_v our_o knowledge_n be_v as_o plain_a for_o infant_n as_o for_o grow_v man_n i_o answer_v true_o sir_n by_z as_o plain_a i_o intend_v only_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o rule_n that_o it_o may_v be_v as_o true_o know_v as_o the_o other_o though_o possible_o not_o so_o clear_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o i_o have_v speak_v more_o fit_o in_o say_v the_o rule_n be_v plain_a for_o infant_n as_o well_o as_o for_o grow_v man_n and_o that_o i_o have_v prove_v abundant_o my_o four_o objection_n be_v that_o all_o who_o enter_v into_o covenant_n themselves_o must_v stipulate_v for_o their_o part_n as_o well_o as_o god_n do_v for_o he_o they_o must_v indent_v with_o god_n to_o perform_v the_o believer_n part_v of_o the_o covevenant_n as_o well_o as_o god_n do_v to_o perform_v his_o part_n my_o answer_n be_v the_o infant_n of_o jew_n be_v as_o much_o tie_v as_o the_o infant_n of_o believer_n under_o the_o gospel_n every_o one_o who_o be_v circumcise_v be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o law_n yet_o they_o know_v not_o what_o it_o mean_v nor_o can_v have_v answ_n the_o

through_o my_o whole_a book_n i_o suppose_v there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n of_o the_o mix_a covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o pure_a covenant_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o of_o every_o believer_n as_o of_o abraham_n and_o of_o baptism_n as_o of_o circumcision_n i_o do_v so_o and_o have_v justify_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v true_a against_o
