A88693	Suspension reviewed, stated, cleered and setled upon plain scripture-proof. Agreeable to the former and late constitutions of the Protestant Church of England and other reformed churches. Wherein (defending a private sheet occasionally written by the author upon this subject, against a publique pretended refutation of the same, by Mr W. in his book, entituled, Suspension discussed.) Many important points are handled; sundry whereof are shortly mentioned in the following page. Together with a discourse concering private baptisme, inserted in the epistle dedicatory. / By Samuel Langley, R.S. in the county palatine of Chester.

it_o can_v be_v show_v either_o that_o their_o church-membership_a be_v typical_a and_o so_o concern_v not_o we_o or_o else_o that_o that_o privilege_n of_o church-membership_a belong_v to_o the_o child_n of_o the_o believe_a jew_n then_o be_v now_o reverse_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o we_o put_v the_o anabaptist_n or_o antipedobaptist_n to_o prove_v if_o they_o can_v and_o then_o because_o they_o or_o most_o of_o they_o grant_v that_o all_o church-member_n not_o forfeit_v their_o privilege_n as_o infan●_n can_v may_v be_v baptize_v hence_o we_o conclude_v infant-baptism_n
