Together with an account of the manner of the transition of church-members from their infant to their adult-state, and regular admission to full communion. Written, for the help of such as need instruction in these spiritual concerns, 1 Cor. 12. 13. For by one spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be jews or gentiles, whether we be bond or free, and have been all made to drink into one spirit.

this_o paper_n i_o entreat_v they_o to_o spend_v one_o hour_n in_o the_o serious_a consideration_n of_o these_o few_o particular_n first_o consider_v the_o preciousness_n of_o your_o child_n soul_n they_o be_v heavenborn_a immortal_a spirit_n capable_a to_o know_v fear_v love_n and_o serve_v the_o god_n that_o make_v they_o here_o and_o to_o see_v and_o enjoy_v he_o for_o ever_o hereafter_o

more_o concern_v for_o their_o present_n and_o future_a welfare_n and_o happiness_n what_o will_v you_o suffer_v so_o precious_a a_o thing_n as_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o child_n to_o be_v lose_v for_o

danger_n second_o consider_v the_o need_n they_o have_v of_o instruction_n for_o they_o come_v into_o the_o world_n spiritual_o blind_a and_o ignorant_a of_o god_n and_o christ_n yea_o of_o themselves_o too_o they_o know_v not_o their_o sinful_a miserable_a and_o dangerous_a state_n by_o nature_n the_o need_n they_o have_v of_o a_o saviour_n nor_o what_o they_o must_v do_v to_o be_v save_v the_o future_a happiness_n of_o saint_n in_o heaven_n nor_o the_o dreadful_a punishment_n of_o sinner_n in_o hell_n and_o that_o which_o yet_o make_v their_o condition_n the_o more_o deplorable_a be_v that_o usual_o they_o desire_v not_o the_o knowledge_n of_o these_o thing_n but_o be_v rather_o unwilling_a to_o be_v instruct_v and_o love_n darkness_n rather_o than_o light_n now_o one_o will_v think_v you_o that_o have_v the_o bowel_n of_o parent_n shall_v pity_n the_o blind_a compassionate_a your_o ignorant_a child_n and_o do_v what_o you_o can_v for_o their_o cure_n though_o you_o be_v under_o no_o other_o law_n but_o that_o of_o nature_n to_o do_v it_o three_o consider_v god_n have_v make_v it_o your_o indispensible_a duty_n by_o his_o positive_a and_o express_v
