A86328	The foundation of the font discovered to the view of all that desire to behold it. And, the baptizing of men and women when they believe (in rivers and fountains) proved to be a standing ordinance in the Church of Cchrist to the end of the world; by plain Scripture-proof. In answer to Mr. Cook's Font uncovered, for infant-baptism; and Mr. Baxter's Plain Scripture-proof for infants church-membership and baptism. With a word sometimes upon occasion to Mr. Hall's Font-guarded; which is more fully answered by Thomas Collyer. By Henry Haggar, a servant of Christ, and the congregations of his saints.

of_o god_n house_n will_v never_o eat_v up_o nor_o destroy_v mr._n baxter_n nor_o his_o brethren_n the_o priest_n of_o england_n for_o i_o never_o know_v any_o of_o they_o go_v into_o the_o water_n to_o baptize_v either_o man_n or_o woman_n for_o it_o be_v against_o their_o principle_n therefore_o he_o may_v well_o hold_v his_o peace_n in_o that_o thing_n and_o if_o the_o anabaptist_n do_v it_o and_o it_o be_v so_o dangerous_a as_o he_o say_v it_o his_o best_a way_n be_v to_o let_v they_o baptize_v as_o many_o as_o they_o will_v and_o then_o they_o will_v kill_v themselves_o the_o soon_o if_o it_o be_v as_o he_o say_v and_o then_o he_o shall_v be_v quit_v of_o they_o but_o to_o conclude_v 1._o we_o find_v that_o in_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o aposty_n they_o baptize_v both_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o river_n see_v mark_v 1.5_o with_o act_n 1.12_o vers_fw-la 37_o 38._o and_o in_o aenon_n near_o to_o salem_n because_o there_o be_v much_o water_n there_o john_n 3.23_o all_o this_o be_v allow_v of_o and_o practise_v by_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n now_o if_o they_o baptize_v man_n and_o woman_n in_o river_n where_o there_o be_v much_o water_n we_o will_v be_v bold_a to_o follow_v their_o good_a holy_a and_o righteous_a example_n notwithstanding_o mr._n baxter_n foul_a mouth_n who_o do_v not_o only_a reproach_n slander_n and_o bely_v we_o but_o also_o the_o lord_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n therefore_o we_o can_v through_o mercy_n well_o bear_v it_o know_v that_o the_o servant_n be_v not_o great_a than_o his_o lord_n and_o if_o they_o have_v call_v the_o master_n of_o the_o house_n beelzebub_n how_o much_o more_o they_o of_o his_o household_n through_o mercy_n we_o can_v rejoice_v that_o we_o be_v count_v worthy_a to_o suffer_v any_o reproach_n for_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n but_o let_v mr._n baxter_n and_o his_o brethren_n know_v that_o they_o must_v one_o day_n give_v a_o account_n of_o all_o their_o word_n and_o action_n to_o he_o that_o be_v ready_a to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o dead_a at_o his_o appear_v 1_o pet._n 4.5_o who_o will_v come_v with_o ten_o thousand_o of_o his_o saint_n to_o execute_v judgement_n upon_o and_o to_o convince_v all_o the_o ungodly_a of_o all_o their_o ungodly_a deed_n and_o of_o all_o their_o hard_a speech_n which_o ungodly_a sinner_n have_v speak_v against_o he_o and_o then_o all_o mr._n baxter_n serious_a protestation_n for_o the_o truth_n in_o one_o place_n of_o his_o book_n chap._n 1._o pag._n 2_o 3._o and_o his_o cunning_a insinuation_n against_o the_o truth_n almost_o all_o over_o his_o book_n will_v do_v he_o little_a good_a for_o then_o those_o which_o now_o be_v so_o zealous_a that_o they_o think_v they_o shall_v do_v god_n good_a service_n if_o they_o shall_v kill_v we_o john_n 16.2_o will_v see_v their_o error_n but_o i_o hearty_o desire_v mr._n baxter_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o brethren_n may_v see_v they_o before_o if_o possible_a and_o now_o to_o your_o eight_o argument_n which_o be_v as_o follow_v that_o party_n and_o practice_n which_o have_v be_v still_o brand_v and_o pursue_v with_o god_n eminent_a judgement_n but_o never_o evident_o with_o his_o blessing_n be_v not_o likely_a to_o be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n but_o the_o anabaptist_n way_n and_o practice_n be_v such_o therefore_o not_o likely_a to_o be_v of_o god_n the_o same_o say_v mr._n hall_n in_o his_o 19_o argument_n in_o his_o fontgaurded_a to_o all_o which_o i_o answer_v if_o this_o argument_n be_v good_a then_o thus_o the_o amorites_n be_v follow_v on_o with_o blessing_n and_o enjoy_v the_o best_a of_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n 400._o year_n together_o while_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n be_v in_o bondage_n and_o in_o misery_n will_v you_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o the_o amorites_n be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n be_v not_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o likewise_o remember_v the_o poverty_n and_o suffering_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o disciple_n and_o how_o they_o be_v brand_v as_o much_o for_o heretic_n and_o wicked_a person_n and_o such_o as_o know_v not_o the_o law_n and_o be_v accurse_v john_n 7.39_o as_o you_o now_o brand_v we_o but_o dare_v you_o say_v that_o they_o be_v not_o good_n people_n true_o i_o remember_v the_o prophet_n say_v psal_n 73.3_o 4_o 5._o that_o when_o he_o see_v the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o in_o trouble_n nor_o plague_v like_o other_o man_n that_o he_o have_v like_a to_o have_v stumble_v at_o their_o prosperity_n and_o to_o have_v say_v that_o they_o be_v god_n people_n but_o it_o seem_v you_o have_v stumble_v and_o be_v fall_v so_o as_o to_o speak_v evil_a of_o god_n people_n because_o of_o their_o suffering_n you_o further_o say_v what_o a_o hindrance_n the_o anabaptist_n be_v to_o the_o gospel_n in_o germany_n by_o resist_v the_o most_o painful_a godly_a minister_n there_o be_v

you_o tell_v we_o present_o that_o the_o senate_n be_v fain_o to_o deal_v with_o they_o with_o banishment_n prison_n and_o death_n and_o then_o you_o tell_v we_o that_o calvin_n do_v write_v a_o

of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n unless_o they_o filthy_o prostitute_v their_o body_n allege_v that_o we_o must_v renounce_v all_o thing_n we_o love_v best_a and_o that_o all_o kind_n of_o infamy_n be_v to_o be_v swallow_v by_o the_o godly_a for_o christ_n sake_n and_o that_o publican_n and_o harlot_n go_v first_o into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o treachery_n lie_v and_o

with_o some_o of_o these_o forename_a wickedness_n etc._n etc._n and_o now_o i_o hope_v by_o this_o time_n you_o have_v vent_v your_o deadly_a poison_n that_o lie_v under_o your_o tongue_n against_o the_o anabaptist_n to_o all_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o if_o all_o these_o thing_n shall_v be_v true_a that_o mr._n baxter_n have_v say_v as_o they_o be_v not_o yet_o it_o seem_v mr._n baxters_n religion_n be_v so_o totter_a and_o ready_a to_o fall_v that_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o underprop_v it_o with_o the_o anabaptist_n fail_n or_o rather_o with_o the_o gross_a wickedness_n of_o those_o that_o have_v apostatise_v from_o we_o and_o be_v glad_a to_o discover_v the_o gross_a darkness_n of_o the_o worst_a of_o man_n or_o else_o his_o own_o light_n be_v so_o small_a that_o it_o will_v not_o shine_v and_o when_o he_o have_v reckon_v up_o the_o worst_a of_o all_o wickedness_n that_o those_o that_o have_v apostize_v from_o we_o have_v commit_v he_o will_v lay_v it_o all_o upon_o we_o and_o wicked_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o free_a from_o it_o and_o when_o he_o shall_v prove_v what_o he_o promise_v namely_o that_o the_o anabaptist_n hinder_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o germany_n his_o proof_n be_v nothing_o but_o tell_v we_o most_o writer_n of_o those_o time_n do_v testify_v it_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v he_o may_v as_o well_o have_v ask_v his_o fellow-preist_n if_o it_o have_v be_v lawful_a to_o take_v tithe_n and_o he_o have_v be_v sure_a to_o have_v have_v the_o testimony_n both_o of_o their_o word_n and_o write_n for_o it_o as_o he_o have_v now_o against_o the_o anabaptist_n

not_o to_o call_v the_o righteous_a but_o sinner_n to_o repentance_n and_o even_o those_o that_o kill_v the_o lord_n of_o life_n obtain_v mercy_n mat._n 9.13_o with_o act_n 2.36_o 37_o 38_o 39_o and_o so_o do_v paul_n the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n 1_o tim._n 1.15_o 16._o therefore_o if_o any_o that_o be_v now_o anabaptist_n have_v former_o be_v gross_a sinner_n it_o be_v while_o they_o be_v of_o your_o church_n and_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o some_o of_o the_o best_a of_o saint_n have_v be_v before_o conversion_n and_o repentance_n but_o i_o suppose_v mr._n baxter_n will_v make_v the_o world_n believe_v that_o the_o anabaptist_n be_v all_o so_o now_o after_o they_o become_v anabaptist_n and_o will_v make_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o will_v persuade_v the_o world_n that_o be_v our_o principle_n and_o judgement_n answ_n if_o mr._n baxter_n have_v know_v any_o such_o in_o fellowship_n with_o we_o when_o he_o write_v his_o book_n he_o shall_v have_v do_v well_o to_o have_v name_v they_o but_o neither_o mr._n saltmarsh_n paul_n hobson_n mr._n williams_n be_v in_o fellowship_n with_o the_o anabaptist_n and_o as_o for_o mr._n erbery_n and_o other_o that_o have_v apostatise_v what_o have_v we_o to_o do_v with_o they_o we_o have_v cast_v they_o out_o from_o we_o long_o since_o and_o they_o be_v return_v to_o you_o again_o as_o for_o mr._n denis_n among_o the_o leveller_n he_o confess_v his_o fault_n before_o god_n and_o man_n and_o obtain_v mercy_n and_o then_o what_o have_v you_o to_o do_v to_o play_v the_o devil_n part_v to_o accuse_v he_o again_o i_o believe_v his_o offence_n be_v not_o big_a than_o peter_n who_o deny_v and_o forswear_v his_o master_n its_o like_a therefore_o if_o you_o have_v live_v in_o those_o day_n you_o will_v have_v be_v so_o wicked_a as_o to_o have_v cry_v down_o christ_n and_o his_o way_n as_o you_o do_v now_o and_o have_v say_v with_o the_o rest_n of_o your_o forefather_n the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n it_o be_v not_o likely_a that_o he_o and_o his_o way_n shall_v be_v of_o god_n for_o in_o his_o prosperity_n none_o follow_v he_o but_o a_o company_n of_o poor_a people_n that_o know_v not_o the_o law_n and_o

what_o a_o end_n he_o come_v to_o and_o how_o god_n follow_v he_o on_o with_o judgement_n one_o of_o his_o own_o disciple_n betray_v he_o and_o sell_v he_o for_o 30_o piece_n of_o silver_n and_o the_o other_o deny_v and_o forswear_v he_o see_v what_o they_o be_v one_o a_o covetous_a wretch_n and_o a_o traitor_n and_o the_o other_o a_o liar_n for_o he_o say_v he_o know_v not_o his_o master_n and_o a_o perjure_a fellow_n for_o he_o forswear_v he_o and_o their_o follower_n the_o church_n of_o corinth_n such_o as_o deny_v the_o resurrection_n 1_o cor._n 15.12_o and_o be_v incestuous_a person_n
