not_o be_v know_v but_o by_o examination_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v those_o prophet_n teach_v submit_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o other_o that_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n that_o so_o by_o the_o harmony_n and_o consent_n of_o their_o doctrine_n the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n by_o which_o they_o all_o speak_v 14.37_o 1_o cor._n 14.37_o may_v be_v evidence_v and_o

time_n when_o they_o preach_v or_o write_v any_o part_n of_o scripture_n whatsoëver_o the_o apostle_n preach_v or_o write_v it_o be_v of_o divine_a authority_n because_o they_o write_v it_o conclus_fw-la 3_o object_n 4_o some_o be_v so_o inconsiderate_a as_o to_o plead_v for_o their_o pattern_n and_o warrant_v christ_n make_v preacher_n of_o fisherman_n why_o therefore_o may_v not_o tradesman_n preach_v answ_n nothing_o can_v make_v more_o direct_o against_o you_o 1._o christ_n call_v they_o from_o their_o trade_n to_o a_o high_a employment_n to_o be_v fisher_n of_o man_n and_o they_o leave_v their_o trade_n to_o do_v this_o work_n but_o you_o say_v keep_v on_o your_o trade_n and_o preach_v too_o 2._o christ_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o the_o ministry_n of_o new_a testament_n call_v they_o train_v they_o up_o in_o his_o school_n as_o disciple_n than_o he_o ordain_v twelv_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v with_o he_o that_o he_o may_v send_v they_o to_o preach_v mark_v 3.14_o but_o you_o preach_v without_o any_o such_o call_v training_n up_o ordain_v or_o send_v 3._o christ_n send_v they_o out_o two_o and_o two_o to_o preach_v and_o give_v they_o power_n to_o heal_v the_o sick_a clean_v the_o leper_n raise_v the_o dead_a cast_v out_o devil_n christ_n enable_v they_o for_o the_o work_n which_o he_o send_v they_o about_o but_o you_o have_v no_o such_o mission_n nor_o new_a ability_n here_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o christ_n and_o man_n he_o do_v not_o find_v man_n fit_a but_o make_v they_o fit_a and_o so_o send_v we_o they_o but_o we_o must_v find_v they_o fit_a or_o else_o not_o send_v they_o neither_o must_v any_o run_v before_o they_o be_v send_v jer._n 23.21_o i_o have_v not_o send_v these_o prophet_n yet_o they_o run_v etc._n etc._n these_o be_v the_o chief_a argument_n for_o preach_v without_o ordination_n for_o far_a satisfaction_n wherein_o and_o of_o all_o mr_n chillenden_n objection_n i_o refer_v the_o reader_n to_o that_o acute_a solid_a short_a treatise_n entitle_v church-member_n set_v in_o joint_n write_v by_o filodexter_n transylvanus_fw-la and_o i_o the_o rather_o recommend_v that_o treatise_n because_o my_o people_n have_v ground_v their_o opinion_n and_o practice_n upon_o mr_n chillenden_n book_n the_o second_o question_n whither_o baptism_n belong_v and_o be_v right_o administer_v to_o infant_n of_o christian_a parent_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n affir_n baptism_n be_v the_o first_o visible_a act_n of_o god_n grace_n whereby_o he_o do_v receiv_v we_o into_o his_o favour_n and_o family_n and_o the_o first_o visible_a mean_n whereby_o he_o do_v apply_v to_o we_o by_o word_n sign_n and_o seal_v the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o remission_n of_o sin_n now_o the_o question_n be_v to_o who_o this_o seal_n of_o mercy_n do_v belong_v anabaptist_n have_v sundry_a pretence_n to_o scorn_n and_o deride_v infant_n baptism_n in_o their_o account_n the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n be_v no_o baptism_n because_o according_a to_o christ_n institution_n as_o they_o conceiv_v true_a baptism_n do_v always_o presuppose_v actual_a belief_n in_o the_o receiver_n and_o be_v otherwise_o no_o baptism_n therefore_o they_o rebaptize_v other_o allow_v of_o infant-baptism_n they_o esteem_v it_o as_o a_o ordinance_n which_o christ_n have_v institute_v in_o special_a love_n and_o favour_n to_o his_o people_n only_o they_o restrain_v this_o privilege_n to_o the_o infant_n of_o parent_n who_o join_v themselves_o in_o church-covenant_n to_o some_o particular_a congregation_n my_o debate_n be_v with_o the_o former_a who_o deny_v all_o infant-baptism_n the_o which_o if_o it_o be_v prove_v to_o belong_v to_o any_o infant_n it_o be_v enough_o for_o my_o purpose_n and_o the_o same_o argument_n which_o prove_v it_o to_o belong_v to_o infant_n of_o this_o or_o that_o congregation_n do_v prove_v it_o to_o belong_v to_o the_o whole_a visible_a church_n and_o their_o infant_n it_o be_v a_o vain_a pride_n and_o great_a presumption_n to_o make_v new_a condition_n of_o church-membership_a which_o god_n have_v not_o make_v and_o to_o ascribe_v to_o the_o invention_n of_o man_n a_o power_n to_o supersede_n the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n to_o cast_v both_o we_o and_o our_o infant_n out_o of_o the_o covenant_n we_o that_o be_v baptize_v into_o that_o one_o body_n if_o we_o subscribe_v not_o to_o their_o article_n and_o our_o child_n because_o we_o subscribe_v not_o thus_o make_v void_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n by_o the_o commandment_n and_o ordinance_n of_o man_n i_o the_o rather_o force_v myself_o to_o speak_v something_o of_o this_o beat_a point_n because_o there_o be_v three_o young_a heathen_n in_o my_o parish_n and_o three_o other_o dead_a out_o of_o the_o covenant_n through_o their_o parent_n frowardness_n now_o for_o the_o convince_a and_o satisfy_v if_o it_o may_v be_v of_o they_o and_o other_o poor_a people_n judgement_n in_o the_o present_a controversy_n i_o shall_v content_v myself_o with_o five_o argument_n the_o first_o will_v depend_v upon_o a_o clear_a positive_a answer_n to_o another_o question_n viz._n quest_n do_v god_n make_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n only_o with_o actual_a believer_n or_o with_o they_o and_o their_o infant-seed_n do_v god_n take_v into_o covenant_n the_o parent_n with_o their_o child_n or_o the_o parent_n only_o answ_n not_o the_o parent_n only_o but_o with_o they_o their_o infant-seed_n this_o be_v the_o express_a tenor_n of_o the_o covenant_n gen._n 17.7_o between_o god_n and_o abraham_n between_o i_o and_o thou_o and_o thy_o seed_n to_o be_v a_o god_n unto_o you_o what_o seed_n mean_v he_o his_o infant-seed_n vers_fw-la 12._o he_o that_o be_v eight_o day_n old_a whether_o it_o be_v a_o child_n of_o thy_o loin_n or_o of_o a_o stranger_n a_o proselyte_n which_o be_v not_o of_o thy_o seed_n this_o covenant_n be_v first_o make_v with_o abraham_n gen._n 12.3_o wherein_o god_n promise_v that_o in_o his_o seed_n shall_v all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v bless_v covenint_n of_o god_n covenint_n i._n e._n in_o christ_n and_o it_o be_v renew_v with_o the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n add_v

and_o through_o christ_n the_o promise_a seed_n for_o god_n preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o abraham_n when_o he_o say_v in_o thy_o seed_n shall_v all_o nation_n be_v bless_v as_o s._n paul_n reason_v gal._n 3.8_o the_o which_o covenant_n see_v it_o be_v 430_o year_n before_o the_o law_n and_o not_o disannul_v by_o the_o come_n of_o the_o law_n it_o be_v to_o endure_v till_o the_o seed_n shall_v come_v to_o who_o the_o promise_v be_v make_v vers_fw-la 17.19_o and_o consequent_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n because_o christ_n come_v to_o establish_v the_o covenant_n make_v to_o the_o father_n 15.8_o rom._n 15.8_o and_o after_o christ_n no_o more_o change_n to_o be_v expect_v 2._o note_v that_o the_o person_n with_o who_o that_o gospel-covenant_n be_v make_v be_v abraham_n and_o his_o infant-seed_n and_o all_o nation_n even_o we_o englishmen_n and_o our_o infant-seed_n as_o appear_v gen._n 17.4.12_o my_o covenant_n be_v with_o thou_o and_o with_o thy_o seed_n in_o their_o generation_n and_o with_o the_o strange_a that_o be_v not_o thy_o seed_n all_o of_o they_o must_v be_v circumcise_a compare_v with_o rom._n 15.8_o 15._o now_o i_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o circumcision_n i._n e._n of_o the_o jew_n for_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o confirm_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o covenant_n make_v unto_o the_o father_n and_o that_o the_o
