A90658	A reply to a confutation of some grounds for infants baptisme: as also, concerning the form of a church, put forth against mee by one Thomas Lamb. Hereunto is added, a discourse of the verity and validity of infants baptisme, wherein I endeavour to clear it in it self: as also in the ministery administrating it, and the manner of administration, by sprinkling, and not dipping; with sundry other particulars handled herein. / By George Philips of Watertown in New England.	Phillips, George, 1593-1644.	1645 (1645)	Wing P2026; Thomason E287_4; ESTC R200088	141,673	168

enforce_v my_o belief_n that_o a_o man_n must_v dip_v or_o else_o he_o do_v not_o baptize_v second_o they_o urge_v consent_n to_o dip_v from_o john_n practice_n baptise_v in_o aenen_n because_o there_o be_v many_o water_n that_o he_o may_v dip_v they_o from_o philip_n baptise_v the_o eunuch_n and_o other_o also_o who_o they_o conclude_v baptize_v with_o dip_v to_o these_o i_o answer_v first_o the_o word_n will_v not_o necessary_o enforce_v it_o that_o they_o be_v baptize_v be_v our_o of_o question_n but_o whether_o by_o dip_v or_o sprinkle_v be_v questionable_a for_o the_o word_n may_v signify_v either_o as_o i_o have_v show_v and_o the_o text_n do_v not_o determine_v which_o by_o any_o other_o expression_n for_o as_o for_o that_o of_o many_o water_n be_v there_o some_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v of_o a_o great_a deep_a river_n but_o of_o many_o river_n piscator_fw-la and_o the_o reason_n of_o his_o choose_v that_o place_n may_v be_v because_o other_o place_n may_v not_o so_o well_o continue_v and_o many_o other_o reason_n there_o may_v be_v and_o yet_o this_o none_o that_o he_o may_v dip_v they_o for_o that_o may_v as_o well_o have_v be_v do_v in_o other_o place_n and_o it_o be_v say_v that_o be_v the_o reason_n without_o proof_n which_o may_v be_v as_o easy_o deny_v as_o it_o be_v affirm_v nor_o be_v there_o any_o such_o necessity_n in_o translate_n the_o preposition_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v into_o jordan_n and_o signify_v dip_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n but_o it_o may_v be_v well_o enough_o translate_v to_o jordan_n i_o think_v that_o if_o the_o eunuch_n dive_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n that_o philip_n do_v not_o douze_v himself_o so_o too_o yet_o it_o be_v say_v equal_o of_o they_o both_o they_o descend_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d from_o the_o chariot_n to_o thewater_n not_o into_o it_o &_o that_o they_o both_o come_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d from_o the_o water_n not_o out_o of_o the_o water_n second_o it_o be_v not_o probable_a that_o they_o dive_v the_o party_n under_o water_n when_o they_o baptize_v they_o partly_o because_o at_o some_o time_n and_o in_o some_o place_n it_o be_v administer_v in_o a_o house_n and_o sudden_o when_o there_o be_v no_o thought_n aforehand_o to_o prepare_v fit_a instrument_n as_o in_o cornelius_n house_n the_o jailor_n and_o his_o household_n lydia_n and_o her_o family_n act_v 10._o &_o 16._o so_o that_o they_o may_v have_v water_n enough_o to_o dive_v they_o in_o partly_o because_o it_o be_v not_o easy_a for_o a_o man_n to_o take_v a_o grow_v man_n in_o his_o arm_n and_o dive_v he_o under_o water_n otherwise_o i_o see_v not_o how_o the_o minister_n shall_v baptize_v they_o but_o rather_o they_o shall_v baptize_v themselves_o nor_o shall_v the_o administration_n be_v ministerial_a if_o the_o baptize_v person_n shall_v not_o be_v passive_a in_o receive_v it_o three_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v whole_o dip_v into_o water_n it_o will_v hazard_v oft_o some_o man_n life_n by_o be_v strangle_v under_o the_o water_n and_o who_o can_v so_o exact_o carry_v the_o action_n as_o not_o to_o do_v too_o much_o or_o too_o little_a to_o hold_v they_o under_o too_o long_o or_o not_o long_a enough_o last_o it_o be_v not_o seemly_a nor_o agree_v to_o common_a much_o less_o religious_a modesty_n to_o take_v they_o and_o dip_v they_o naked_a before_o other_o nor_o can_v i_o be_v persuade_v that_o jesus_n when_o he_o be_v baptize_v or_o any_o other_o baptize_v by_o john_n or_o any_o body_n else_o strip_v themselves_o naked_a if_o any_o shall_v say_v they_o cover_v their_o unseemly_a part_n or_o that_o it_o be_v do_v in_o their_o clothes_n i_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v as_o easy_o deny_v as_o affirm_v the_o scripture_n give_v not_o the_o least_o hint_n of_o such_o a_o thing_n which_o i_o suppose_v it_o will_v have_v do_v if_o it_o have_v be_v so_o as_o in_o other_o case_n it_o tell_v we_o of_o saul_n strip_v himself_o among_o the_o prophet_n the_o executicner_n of_o steven_n lay_v their_o garment_n at_o paul_n foot_n etc._n etc._n especial_o it_o be_v in_o so_o weighty_a a_o matter_n as_o shall_v concern_v all_o age_n again_o if_o all_o their_o clothes_n be_v on_o or_o but_o some_o of_o they_o then_o certain_o their_o flesh_n be_v not_o wash_v as_o 1_o pet._n 3.21_o but_o their_o

do_v worse_o than_o they_o that_o use_v it_o not_o but_o that_o it_o be_v absolute_o necessary_a or_o the_o omission_n of_o it_o make_v baptism_n null_a that_o sprinkle_v be_v unlawful_a antichristian_a of_o humane_a invention_n etc._n etc._n and_o that_o baptism_n for_o administration_n be_v invalid_a evacuate_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n etc._n etc._n i_o can_v yield_v i_o have_v give_v some_o consideration_n why_o i_o think_v dip_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a i_o shall_v add_v a_o few_o why_o i_o think_v sprinkle_v with_o water_n be_v unlawful_a and_o that_o baptism_n so_o administer_v be_v true_a baptism_n first_o because_o the_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d will_v yield_v it_o and_o may_v be_v just_o so_o translate_v and_o must_v be_v so_o take_v in_o the_o

that_o though_o dip_v may_v be_v lawful_a yet_o sprinkle_v be_v not_o unlawful_a and_o question_v not_o but_o the_o ordinance_n administer_v by_o sprinkle_v be_v as_o valid_a as_o the_o administer_a of_o it_o by_o dip_v and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o forget_v themselves_o that_o condemn_v sprinkle_v as_o antichristian_a humane_a etc._n etc._n they_o do_v and_o will_v grant_v that_o in_o some_o case_n it_o may_v be_v lawful_a and_o then_o it_o be_v lawful_a in_o itself_o moral_o or_o certain_o no_o case_n can_v make_v it_o moral_o lawful_a but_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n so_o to_o do_v in_o what_o case_n soever_o i_o argue_v therefore_o from_o thence_o thus_o five_o if_o sprinkle_v in_o some_o case_n be_v lawful_a than_o it_o be_v not_o moral_o unlawful_a in_o itself_o at_o all_o but_o in_o some_o case_n sprinkle_v may_v be_v lawful_a as_o where_o there_o be_v but_o little_a water_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v not_o moral_o unlawful_a in_o itself_o six_o i_o shall_v add_v here_o the_o
