and_o the_o character_n impress_v upon_o the_o soul_n of_o christian_n by_o baptism_n we_o answer_v thus_o to_o the_o first_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o in_o both_o those_o gospel_n both_o of_o st._n

our_o saviour_n require_v that_o the_o person_n before_o baptism_n shall_v be_v teach_v &_o make_v to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n we_o answer_v again_o that_o child_n be_v teach_v and_o believe_v and_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n by_o other_o that_o be_v their_o god_n father_n and_o god_n mother_n as_o they_o do_v contract_v the_o sin_n by_o other_o which_o in_o baptism_n be_v forgive_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n the_o church_n lend_v her_o motherly_a mouth_n to_o promise_v for_o the_o teach_n and_o nurse_n of_o these_o little_a one_o which_o can_v confess_v with_o their_o own_o mouth_n the_o lord_n jesus_n nor_o can_v believe_v in_o their_o own_o heart_n to_o salvation_n as_o the_o apostle_n express_v it_o and_o if_o they_o may_v be_v call_v faithful_a because_o they_o profess_v the_o faith_n by_o the_o mouth_n of_o those_o that_o hold_v they_o and_o answer_v for_o they_o why_o may_v they_o not_o also_o be_v repute_v penitent_n when_o by_o their_o mouth_n likewise_o that_o hold_v they_o they_o do_v renounce_v the_o world_n and_o the_o devil_n now_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o this_o be_v plain_a to_o sense_n for_o the_o spiritual_a regeneration_n hold_v great_a proportion_n with_o the_o carnal_a generation_n especial_o in_o this_o for_o as_o child_n in_o their_o mother_n womb_n 10.9_o rom._n 10.9_o do_v not_o take_v nourishment_n themselves_o by_o themselves_o but_o be_v sustain_v by_o the_o nourishment_n of_o their_o mother_n so_o child_n not_o have_v yet_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n be_v as_o it_o where_o in_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o

father_n offer_v they_o up_o to_o baptism_n be_v sufficient_a for_o their_o salvation_n as_o the_o faith_n of_o those_o which_o offer_v the_o man_n sick_a of_o the_o palsy_n to_o our_o saviour_n

dispossession_n of_o the_o devil_n to_o the_o second_o we_o say_v that_o what_o you_o urge_v of_o philip_n and_o cornelius_n make_v nothing_o to_o our_o purpose_n for_o they_o be_v grow_v man_n so_o ought_v to_o be_v teach_v and_o have_v the_o gospel_n preach_v to_o they_o to_o the_o three_o to_o your_o grand_a argument_n out_o of_o reason_n we_o answer_v &_o return_v it_o thus_o upon_o you_o reprobate_n be_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v but_o many_o grow_v man_n be_v reprobate_n therefore_o all_o grow_v man_n be_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v it_o be_v altogether_o so_o as_o strong_a against_o you_o as_o against_o we_o to_o the_o four_o to_o what_o you_o so_o learned_o urge_v out_o of_o antiquity_n that_o the_o ancient_a primitive_a christian_n do_v administer_v baptism_n but_o thrice_o a_o year_n therefore_o child_n so_o soon_o as_o they_o be_v bear_v be_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v we_o will_v grant_v you_o more_o than_o that_o for_o it_o be_v administer_v but_o twice_o a_o year_n and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o easter_n and_o whit-suntide_a but_o that_o be_v the_o solemn_a baptism_n for_o those_o that_o be_v grow_v &_o teach_v by_o a_o long_a course_n of_o catechise_v &_o in_o that_o the_o primitive_a church_n do_v right_o observe_v the_o order_n that_o be_v prescribe_v by_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v this_o first_o to_o instruct_v they_o that_o be_v to_o be_v baptize_v in_o the_o faith_n second_o to_o teach_v they_o to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n 3_o to_o baptise_v they_o but_o this_o order_n we_o say_v be_v only_o to_o be_v observe_v with_o those_o that_o be_v grow_v and_o capable_a of_o such_o instruction_n and_o in_o this_o we_o conceive_v by_o all_o your_o main_a mistake_n to_o the_o five_o that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o word_n in_o scripture_n concern_v the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n we_o utter_o do_v deny_v and_o shall_v anon_o prove_v to_o the_o contrary_a as_o also_o that_o it_o be_v the_o invention_n of_o pope_n nicholas_n be_v altogether_o as_o false_a but_o as_o bad_a antiquary_n as_o we_o be_v we_o will_v prove_v it_o to_o have_v be_v a_o constant_a practice_n in_o the_o church_n in_o s._n jeroms_n s._n augustins_n and_o s._n cyprian_n time_n that_o be_v before_o pope_n nicholas_n four_o hundred_o and_o six_o hundred_o year_n to_o the_o six_o we_o answer_v as_o for_o the_o character_n imprint_v on_o the_o soul_n by_o baptism_n that_o give_v you_o so_o much_o offence_n it_o be_v no_o feign_a thing_n by_o the_o father_n as_o you_o pretend_v but_o those_o man_n of_o god_n have_v always_o so_o understand_v it_o by_o the_o instruction_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o out_o of_o the_o letter_n of_o scripture_n as_o we_o shall_v show_v you_o anon_o more_o large_o to_o the_o seven_o we_o say_v that_o by_o your_o favour_n it_o be_v no_o such_o ridiculous_a thing_n that_o water_n by_o the_o assistance_n of_o divine_a grace_n shall_v make_v such_o a_o character_n or_o impression_n on_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v not_o we_o say_v water_n but_o god_n that_o make_v such_o a_o impression_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o baptismal_a water_n his_o divine_a omnipotency_n assist_v that_o sacrament_n and_o in_o this_o point_n christian_n have_v a_o privilege_n over_o the_o jew_n for_o we_o have_v the_o mark_n and_o impression_n of_o the_o spirit_n on_o our_o soul_n but_o they_o have_v it_o only_o in_o the_o flesh_n of_o their_o body_n so_o give_v we_o leave_v to_o reply_v again_o and_o we_o shall_v conclude_v that_o the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n be_v lawful_a and_o by_o it_o there_o be_v a_o character_n impress_v upon_o christian_a soul_n we_o prove_v by_o scripture_n thus_o first_o we_o find_v express_o in_o genesis_n that_o child_n be_v capable_a of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n for_o the_o lord_n say_v there_o this_o be_v my_o covenant_n which_o you_o shall_v keep_v between_o i_o and_o you_o and_o thy_o seed_n after_o thou_o every_o manchild_n among_o you_o shall_v he_o circumcise_v 17.10.14_o gen._n 17.10.14_o etc._n etc._n and_o then_o afterward_o it_o be_v say_v and_o the_o uncircumcised_a manchild_n who_o flesh_n of_o his_o foreskin_n be_v not_o circumcise_v that_o soul_n shall_v be_v cut_v off_o from_o his_o people_n he_o have_v break_v my_o covenant_n etc._n etc._n if_o child_n be_v capable_a of_o break_v the_o covenant_n than_o they_o be_v also_o of_o keep_v it_o and_o baptism_n be_v the_o same_o in_o the_o church_n that_o circumcision_n be_v in_o the_o synagogue_n for_o as_o by_o circumcision_n the_o jewish_a infant_n be_v include_v in_o the_o divine_a covenant_n so_o christian_a infant_n sure_o be_v not_o to_o be_v exclude_v from_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n wherefore_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v and_o those_o that_o be_v not_o so_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o damnation_n all_o this_o be_v plain_o make_v good_a by_o our_o bless_a saviour_n in_o the_o gospel_n where_o we_o find_v that_o they_o bring_v young_a child_n to_o he_o that_o he_o shall_v touch_v they_o but_o his_o disciple_n rebuke_v they_o that_o bring_v they_o but_o when_o jesus_n see_v it_o he_o be_v much_o displease_v and_o say_v to_o they_o 14.16_o mar._n 10.13_o 14.16_o suffer_v little_a child_n to_o come_v unto_o i_o and_o forbid_v they_o not_o for_o of_o such_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o he_o take_v they_o in_o his_o arm_n put_v his_o hand_n upon_o they_o and_o bless_v they_o etc._n etc._n how_o can_v your_o sect_n therefore_o justify_v to_o hinder_v little_a child_n to_o come_v unto_o christ_n our_o saviour_n again_o in_o st._n matthews_n gospel_n command_v his_o apostle_n to_o baptise_v all_o nation_n 28.19_o mat._n 28.19_o you_o must_v therefore_o grant_v child_n to_o be_v include_v as_o a_o part_n of_o those_o nation_n st._n 2._o 1_o cor._n 11.1_o 2._o paul_n plain_o require_v the_o corinthian_n not_o to_o be_v ignorant_a of_o this_o and_o tell_v they_o how_o that_o all_o our_o father_n be_v under_o the_o cloud_n and_o all_o pass_v through_o the_o sea_n and_o be_v all_o baptise_a

too_o when_o he_o say_v for_o there_o must_v be_v also_o heresy_n among_o you_o that_o they_o which_o be_v approve_v may_v be_v make_v manifest_a among_o you_o 6._o then_o that_o no_o civil_a magistracy_n be_v to_o be_v bear_v among_o christian_n 22.25_o luke_n 22.25_o be_v plain_a out_o of_o luke_n gospel_n when_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o they_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n exercise_n lordship_n over_o they_o etc._n etc._n but_o you_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o and_o this_o it_o plain_o again_o confirm_v by_o paul_n to_o the_o ephesian_n 4.5_o ephes_n 4.5_o where_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o lord_n one_o faith_n and_o one_o baptism_n if_o therefore_o there_o be_v to_o be_v but_o one_o lord_n who_o who_o shall_v dare_v to_o make_v more_o so_o that_o king_n prince_n and_o magistrate_n be_v all_o unlawful_a thing_n 7._o last_o of_o all_o that_o it_o be_v absolute_o unlawful_a for_o christian_n to_o give_v or_o take_v oath_n be_v most_o evident_a out_o of_o our_o saviour_n own_o word_n recite_v at_o large_a in_o matthews_n gospel_n thus_o 37._o matt._n 5.33_o 34_o 35_o 36_o 37._o you_o have_v hear_v that_o it_o have_v be_v say_v by_o they_o of_o old_a time_n thou_o shall_v not_o forswear_v thyself_o but_o shall_v perform_v unto_o the_o lord_n thy_o oath_n but_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o swear_v not_o at_o all_o neither_o by_o heaven_n for_o it_o god_n throne_n nor_o by_o the_o earth_n for_o it_o be_v his_o footstool_n neither_o by_o jerusalem_n for_o it_o be_v the_o city_n of_o the_o great_a king_n neither_o shall_v thou_o swear_v by_o thy_o

evil_a and_o be_v not_o all_o this_o as_o plain_o repeat_v 5.12_o jam._n 5.12_o and_o confirm_v by_o james_n in_o his_o epistle_n general_n where_o he_o say_v but_o above_o all_o thing_n my_o brethren_n swear_v not_o neither_o by_o heaven_n neither_o by_o the_o earth_n neither_o by_o any_o other_o oath_n but_o let_v your_o yea_o be_fw-mi yea_o and_o your_o nay_o nay_o lest_o you_o fall_v into_o condemnation_n can_v any_o thing_n be_v make_v more_o plain_a by_o more_o express_a scripture_n than_o that_o all_o manner_n of_o swear_v be_v utter_o unlawful_a let_v they_o look_v to_o it_o therefore_o that_o make_v it_o their_o common_a practice_n to_o swear_v vain_o and_o they_o too_o that_o under_o pretence_n of_o law_n dare_v to_o administer_v or_o receive_v any_o oath_n how_o judicial_a soever_o for_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n injurious_a to_o god_n and_o tyrannical_a over_o humane_a soul_n that_o to_o baptise_v infant_n be_v a_o injury_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o a_o most_o high_a abuse_n of_o christian_a soul_n and_o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o a_o character_n impress_v in_o the_o soul_n by_o baptism_n be_v a_o mear_v popish_a cheat_n and_o collusion_n i_o prove_v by_o scripture_n thus_o first_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o gospel_n bid_v his_o disciple_n go_v and_o teach_v all_o nation_n 20._o mat._n 28.19_o 20._o baptise_v they_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n teach_v they_o to_o observe_v all_o thing_n whatsoever_o i_o have_v command_v you_o so_o matthew_n render_v his_o word_n 16._o mar._n 16.15_o 16._o and_o mark_v not_o much_o different_a go_v you_o into_o all_o the_o world_n and_o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n he_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v baptize_v shall_v be_v save_v but_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v by_o both_o which_o gospel_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o who_o will_v be_v baptize_v ought_v first_o to_o be_v teach_v and_o to_o believe_v but_o infant_n for_o their_o want_n of_o age_n be_v neither_o capable_a of_o learning_n not_o of_o faith_n therefore_o they_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o baptism_n 2._o we_o find_v it_o as_o plain_a likewise_o in_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n first_o we_o see_v that_o philip_n preach_v the_o gospel_n a_o long_a while_n to_o the_o ethiopian_a eunuch_n bofore_o he_o be_v baptize_v 37._o act_n 8.35_o 36_o 37._o and_o when_o he_o be_v sufficient_o instruct_v he_o say_v here_o be_v water_n what_o do_v hinder_v i_o to_o be_v baptize_v and_o philip_n say_v if_o thou_o believe_v with_o all_o thy_o heart_n thou_o may_v and_o he_o answer_v and_o say_v i_o believe_v that_o jesn_v christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o so_o he_o be_v baptize_v thus_o you_o see_v how_o his_o express_a belief_n be_v to_o go_v before_o his_o baptism_n and_o so_o you_o may_v see_v how_o the_o gospoll_n be_v preach_v to_o cornelius_n by_o peter_n 10._o act_n 10._o before_o he_o will_v baptise_v he_o all_o which_o sufficient_o argue_v the_o madness_n of_o your_o pedobaptisme_n wherein_o their_o be_v a_o utter_a incapacity_n of_o hear_v learning_n or_o believe_v 3._o over_o and_o above_o these_o express_a scripture_n i_o will_v give_v you_o one_o argument_n or_o two_o out_o of_o reason_n first_o you_o will_v grant_v that_o reprobate_n be_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v but_o many_o infant_n be_v reprobate_n therefore_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v 4._o then_o why_o do_v the_o ancient_a primitive_a christian_n administer_v baptism_n but_o at_o certain_a time_n and_o that_o but_o thrice_o a_o year_n if_o that_o child_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v so_o soon_o as_o they_o be_v bear_v 5._o last_o the_o scripture_n speak_v not_o one_o word_n of_o baptise_v of_o child_n but_o one_o pitiful_a pope_n nicholas_n as_o we_o find_v in_o history_n begin_v that_o childish_a baptism_n and_o you_o have_v be_v all_o dotard_n twice_o child_n and_o

popish_a fiction_n likewise_o of_o which_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n at_o all_o make_v in_o scripture_n how_o can_v we_o then_o imagine_v it_o to_o be_v any_o thing_n more_o than_o a_o mere_a figment_n especial_o since_o if_o it_o can_v be_v true_a it_o will_v will_v prove_v to_o be_v of_o such_o importance_n 7._o then_o to_o conclude_v i_o pray_v you_o consider_v a_o little_a impartial_o with_o yourself_o what_o a_o horrid_a ridiculous_a doctrine_n it_o be_v that_o water_n shall_v be_v capable_a to_o impress_v such_o a_o seal_n upon_o a_o soul_n as_o to_o stamp_v a_o indelible_a
