ergo._n they_o be_v teach_v and_o learn_v mr._n ive'_v i_o answer_v by_o deny_v the_o minor_a to_o wit_n that_o infant_n be_v inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v according_a to_o that_o scripture_n for_o first_o the_o word_n infant_n be_v not_o in_o the_o text_n which_o be_v the_o term_n of_o the_o minor_a proposition_n 2_o if_o by_o all_o thy_o child_n shall_v be_v teach_v of_o god_n the_o meaning_n shall_v be_v as_o you_o say_v that_o the_o natural_a seed_n of_o the_o believer_n body_n shall_v be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n inward_o and_o effectual_o in_o their_o infancy_n then_o to_o what_o purpose_n do_v you_o teach_v they_o to_o be_v convert_v when_o they_o come_v to_o year_n 3_o if_o all_o the_o natural_a child_n of_o believer_n be_v inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v of_o

it_o to_o be_v inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v but_o to_o be_v real_o and_o true_o regenerate_v you_o go_v on_o to_o prove_v the_o minor_a viz._n that_o all_o believer_n infant_n be_v inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v thus_o mr._n kellie_n if_o infant_n be_v not_o inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v you_o say_v there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o salvation_n in_o their_o death_n but_o there_o

put_v your_o argument_n into_o indefinite_a term_n but_o i_o presume_v by_o infant_n you_o mean_v all_o the_o natural_a seed_n of_o believer_n according_a to_o your_o practice_n in_o baptise_v all_o of_o they_o that_o you_o call_v so_o 2_o but_o i_o shall_v answer_v further_o by_o deny_v the_o major_a which_o be_v that_o if_o infant_n be_v not_o inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o salvation_n in_o their_o death_n for_o first_o there_o be_v hope_n of_o the_o salvation_n of_o those_o child_n with_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o speak_v nor_o to_o who_o he_o

be_v teach_v it_o must_v be_v in_o god_n law_n but_o it_o be_v say_v of_o those_o child_n that_o god_n have_v not_o speak_v with_o they_o 3_o again_o we_o have_v great_a hope_n of_o the_o salvation_n of_o infant_n because_o they_o be_v make_v righteous_a by_o jesus_n christ_n rom._n 5.18_o 19_o though_o they_o shall_v not_o know_v this_o by_o a_o inward_a and_o effectual_a teach_v also_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o the_o child_n shall_v not_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n and_o it_o have_v commit_v in_o its_o infancy_n no_o sin_n of_o its_o own_o what_o therefore_o shall_v

it_o be_v a_o fiction_n of_o your_o own_o brain_n to_o say_v infant_n be_v inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v or_o else_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o their_o salvation_n because_o there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o god_n for_o to_o justify_v such_o a_o say_n in_o the_o whole_a bible_n but_o yet_o you_o adventure_v to_o bring_v that_o text_n 1_o thess_n 4.13_o where_o the_o apostle_n advise_v that_o the_o brethren_n will_v not_o sorrow_n as_o those_o that_o have_v no_o hope_n because_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o resurrection_n which_o some_o do_v not_o hope_v for_o at_o the_o death_n of_o their_o friend_n which_o make_v their_o sorrow_n the_o more_o intemperate_a but_o now_o that_o i_o may_v have_v hope_n of_o the_o salvation_n of_o my_o child_n at_o the_o resurrection_n although_o i_o shall_v not_o believe_v that_o unwritten_a proposition_n to_o wit_n that_o in_o their_o infancy_n they_o be_v effectual_o teach_v appear_v because_o of_o the_o text_n you_o so_o much_o urge_v in_o favour_n to_o your_o baby-baptism_n mat._n 19.14_o where_o christ_n bid_v the_o disciple_n suffer_v little_a child_n to_o come_v to_o he_o because_o of_o such_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n so_o that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n belong_v to_o infant_n before_o they_o have_v so_o much_o as_o be_v with_o christ_n or_o before_o he_o have_v actual_o bless_v they_o but_o you_o proceed_v to_o prove_v the_o minor_a proposition_n that_o child_n must_v either_o be_v inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v or_o else_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o salvation_n in_o their_o death_n thus_o mr._n kellie_n without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v eternal_a life_n there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o salvation_n but_o without_o the_o inward_a and_o

the_o salvation_n of_o infant_n mr._n ive'_v you_o leave_v out_o the_o term_n infant_n in_o your_o major_a proposition_n by_o which_o your_o argument_n become_v fallacious_a because_o it_o be_v a_o term_n that_o be_v afterward_o insert_v both_o in_o your_o minor_a and_o conclusion_n which_o if_o you_o have_v play_v the_o part_n of_o a_o honest_a logician_n you_o shall_v have_v insert_v it_o in_o your_o major_n and_o then_o it_o will_v have_v run_v thus_o without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v eternal_a life_n there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o salvation_n for_o infant_n then_o i_o will_v have_v deny_v the_o major_a and_o that_o because_o there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o god_n for_o such_o a_o proposition_n 2_o god_n say_v he_o will_v have_v pity_n upon_o the_o city_n of_o ninive_n because_o their_o infant_n do_v not_o know_v their_o right_a hand_n from_o their_o left_a can_v any_o man_n believe_v that_o any_o body_n shall_v be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o great_a and_o sublime_a matter_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o eternal_a life_n that_o know_v not_o his_o right_a hand_n from_o his_o left_a in_o nature_n and_o yet_o you_o say_v thus_o of_o child_n viz._n that_o they_o have_v the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n when_o as_o yet_o they_o have_v not_o knowledge_n to_o know_v their_o right_a hand_n from_o their_o left_a in_o nature_n 3_o again_o they_o that_o know_v his_o name_n will_v trust_v in_o he_o but_o you_o see_v child_n in_o their_o infancy_n be_v call_v upon_o to_o do_v neither_o 4_o again_o they_o that_o know_v god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n be_v always_o in_o the_o scripture_n distinguish_v from_o those_o that_o know_v he_o not_o if_o so_o than_o all_o child_n in_o their_o infancy_n know_v god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n or_o else_o you_o must_v show_v how_o some_o infant_n of_o eight_o day_n old_a may_v be_v judge_v to_o know_v he_o and_o other_o may_v be_v judge_v to_o be_v ignorant_a of_o he_o if_o you_o say_v you_o can_v distinguish_v than_o i_o say_v you_o have_v as_o much_o reason_n to_o baptize_v a_o turk_n child_n at_o eight_o day_n old_a as_o a_o christian_n since_o there_o appear_v as_o much_o of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n in_o the_o one_o as_o in_o the_o other_o and_o then_o what_o become_v of_o your_o favour_n you_o will_v show_v to_o believer_n child_n again_o if_o they_o viz._n the_o infant_n of_o believer_n do_v know_v god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n in_o their_o infancy_n how_o come_v many_o of_o they_o so_o wicked_a when_o they_o come_v to_o year_n do_v you_o not_o here_o strong_o smell_v of_o arminianism_n which_o you_o so_o much_o preach_v against_o that_o man_n may_v be_v in_o the_o save_a knowledge_n of_o god_n to_o day_n and_o out_o of_o it_o to_o

say_v faith_n without_o work_n be_v dead_a james_z 2.17_o so_o that_o if_o child_n have_v faith_n in_o infancy_n it_o be_v a_o dead_a faith_n because_o it_o have_v no_o work_n and_o faith_n without_o

of_o man_n that_o be_v arrive_v above_o the_o stature_n of_o intant_n of_o eight_o day_n old_a in_o the_o like_a manner_n must_v we_o understand_v christ_n john_n 17._o this_o be_v life_n eternal_a that_o

so_o of_o any_o infant_n that_o they_o have_v not_o a_o natural_a birth_n for_o though_o solomon_n say_v we_o do_v not_o know_v how_o the_o child_n be_v form_v in_o the_o womb_n yet_o he_o deny_v

this_o strange_a that_o you_o shall_v spend_v so_o many_o argument_n as_o you_o do_v a_o little_a before_o to_o prove_v that_o all_o infant_n of_o believer_n be_v inward_o and_o effectual_o teach_v draw_v and_o come_v to_o christ_n and_o that_o now_o you_o shall_v tell_v we_o that_o some_o of_o they_o be_v not_o call_v till_o the_o last_o hour_n and_o if_o you_o shall_v think_v to_o excuse_v the_o matter_n by_o say_v that_o you_o mean_v some_o unbeliever_n child_n be_v not_o call_v till_o then_o that_o will_v not_o do_v because_o you_o tell_v i_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o your_o paper_n
