A35303	A just reply to Mr. John Flavell's arguments by way of answer to a discourse lately published, entitled, A solemn call, &c. wherein it is further plainly proved that the covenant made with Israel on Mount Sinai, as also the covenant of circumcision made with Abraham, whereon so much stress is laid for the support of infants baptism ... : together with a reply to Mr. Joseph Whiston's reflections on the forementioned discourse, in a late small tract of his entituled, The right method for the proving of infants baptism ... / by Philip Cary ...

now_o this_o assertion_n of_o i_o you_o tell_v i_o be_v attend_v with_o many_o gross_a absurdity_n for_o first_o say_v you_o from_o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o either_o moses_n and_o all_o israel_n

for_o indeed_o faith_n itself_o be_v not_o our_o righteousness_n as_o it_o will_v be_v if_o it_o be_v as_o you_o affirm_v it_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n and_o that_o as_o a_o

phil._n 3._o 9_o tit._n 3._o 5._o you_o tell_v we_o indeed_o in_o your_o forementioned_a book_n entitle_v the_o method_n of_o grace_n p._n 133_o 134._o that_o though_o faith_n be_v a_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n yet_o you_o can_v allow_v that_o it_o justify_v as_o a_o condition_n and_o why_o because_o as_o you_o there_o also_o tell_v we_o you_o can_v see_v according_a to_o this_o

justify_v as_o well_o as_o faith_n and_o say_v i_o it_o be_v very_o true_a if_o faith_n be_v a_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n repentance_n be_v a_o condition_n as_o much_o as_o that_o and_o so_o be_v all_o other_o grace_n condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n as_o well_o as_o faith_n and_o repentance_n this_o can_v be_v avoid_v and_o if_o all_o these_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n why_o they_o shall_v not_o justify_v as_o condition_n i_o see_v not_o nor_o i_o think_v you_o nor_o any_o man_n else_o for_o you_o give_v no_o other_o reason_n why_o you_o can_v allow_v that_o faith_n justify_v as_o a_o condition_n but_o that_o this_o will_v necessary_o bring_v in_o repentance_n and_o all_o other_o grace_n to_o justify_v as_o condition_n also_o as_o well_o as_o faith_n as_o indeed_o it_o do_v since_o whatsoever_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o our_o justification_n for_o this_o be_v too_o evident_a to_o be_v just_o deny_v but_o that_o as_o perfect_a obedience_n under_o the_o law_n be_v the_o condition_n of_o that_o covenant_n be_v to_o have_v be_v the_o condition_n of_o our_o

under_o the_o gospel_n also_o if_o therefore_o these_o must_v be_v ackdowledge_v to_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n the_o consequence_n be_v unavoidable_a that_o they_o be_v also_o the_o condition_n nay_o the_o very_a matter_n and_o ground_n of_o our_o acceptation_n before_o god_n and_o so_o at_o last_o in_o stead_n of_o make_v the_o gospel_n covenant_n to_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o faith_n free_a and_o absolute_a we_o shall_v make_v it_o a_o plain_a covenant_n of_o work_n for_o what_o else_o make_v or_o wherein_o else_o consist_v the_o true_a form_n or_o nature_n
