A84133	The Anabaptists ground-work for reformation: or, New planting of churches, that no man, woman, nor child, may be baptized, but such as have justifying faith, and doe make profession thereof, before, to the baptizer, found false, with all things depending thereon. As being contrary to the Scriptures, and to the examples of Christ and his Apostles, ... Proved by severall arguments. Whereunto one T.L. a principall baptizer, (and apostle in their account) hath given his answers. Unto which answers, replies are also made by I.E. and some arguments annexed, proving, that the children of all such beleevers as were baptized, and so received into the Church, might be baptized, and received also. With a brief declaration what the true reformation is, and shal be, farre above these Anabaptists, and all such carnall builders conceits. And who the two witnesses of God are, by whom chiefly it is to be performed. Imprimatut [sic].

baptize_v such_o of_o who_o some_o fall_v away_o as_o also_o some_o of_o they_o do_v who_o christ_n baptize_v and_o some_o continue_a have_v obtain_v a_o more_o excellent_a precious_a faith_n by_o a_o

that_o they_o be_v utter_o ignorant_a of_o and_o so_o sin_v not_o do_v it_o of_o faith_n this_o be_v the_o consequence_n of_o t._n l._n his_o doctrine_n the_o three_o argument_n if_o christ_n or_o

that_o be_v admit_v to_o baptism_n to_o have_v justify_v faith_n when_o they_o be_v admit_v because_o he_o have_v power_n to_o discern_v above_o the_o rule_n give_v to_o the_o minister_n of_o
