A67315	Baptism anatomized being propounded in five queries, viz. I. What water-baptism is? II. What is the end for which it was instituted? III. What giveth right to it? IV. Who are the true administrators of it? V. Whether it be lawful for a man to baptize himself? Wherein the right that the infants of believers have to water-baptism is vindicated: the duty of believing parents in that matter, asserted: and that by the contrary tenet and practise, they ought themselves to be excluded from the Lords-Supper, is plainly and fully proved. And wherein also is proved, that the covenant which God made with Abraham, Gen. 17. and with Israel Exod. ch. 19. and Deut. 29. are the Covenant of Grace in Christ, and not part of the covenant of works made with Adam before his fall.

full_o prove_v against_o they_o in_o the_o three_o query_n therefore_o i_o desire_v the_o reader_n to_o observe_v their_o argument_n and_o the_o answer_n to_o they_o for_o when_o the_o apostle_n judas_n see_v the_o doctrine_n of_o cain_n spread_v itself_o among_o the_o christian_n he_o exhort_v they_o that_o be_v faithful_a to_o contend_v earnest_o for_o the_o faith_n once_o give_v to_o the_o

but_o what_o they_o know_v natural_o as_o brute_n beast_n in_o those_o thing_n they_o corrupt_v themselves_o and_o from_o this_o root_n mere_o by_o the_o argument_n arise_v from_o nature_n do_v the_o anabaptist_n continual_o urge_v namely_o that_o profession_n of_o faith_n only_o give_v right_o to_o water-baptism_n to_o deprive_v the_o infant_n of_o believer_n because_o they_o can_v actual_o profess_v faith_n and_o repent_v of_o a_o right_a to_o the_o remission_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o of_o a_o right_n to_o the_o sign_n thereof_o water-baptism_n as_o in_o this_o treatise_n be_v full_o discover_v moreover_o and_o to_o maintain_v this_o their_o doctrine_n ground_v on_o nature_n they_o quarrel_n with_o our_o english_a translation_n as_o though_o the_o original_a word_n for_o

be_v full_o prove_v to_o be_v against_o modesty_n in_o answer_n to_o the_o first_o query_n but_o they_o have_v leave_v the_o word_n baptise_v in_o its_o general_a term_n to_o wash_v as_o it_o be_v
