A65671	Infant baptism plainly proved a discourse wherein certain select arguments for infant baptism, formerly syllogyistically handled, are now reviewed, abbreviated, and reduced to a plain method, for the benefit of the unlearned, and persons of weaker capacity / by Joseph Whiston ; with a large epistle to the pious and learned among the anti-pædobaptists, especially the authors of the late confession of their faith.	Whiston, Joseph, d. 1690.	1678 (1678)	Wing W1694; ESTC R1322	72,861	137

of_o believer_n unto_o aaraham_n except_o only_o in_o the_o last_o nor_o any_o one_o word_n give_v the_o least_o ground_n to_o suppose_v that_o i_o ground_n my_o plea_n for_o their_o interest_n in_o

by_o he_o where_o i_o mention_v that_o their_o relation_n i_o express_o say_v that_o in_o the_o application_n of_o baptism_n to_o they_o we_o have_v a_o direct_a and_o primary_n respect_v to_o their_o state_n as_o joint-subject_n with_o their_o parent_n of_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o covenant_n it_o be_v true_a i_o add_v that_o look_v what_o respect_n we_o have_v to_o the_o mystical_a relation_n of_o believe_a parent_n to_o abraham_n in_o the_o application_n of_o baptism_n to_o they_o the_o same_o respect_n we_o have_v to_o the_o mystical_a relation_n of_o their_o infant-seed_n to_o he_o in_o the_o application_n of_o baptism_n unto_o they_o but_o my_o meaning_n be_v plain_o only_o this_o that_o it_o be_v both_o parent_n and_o child_n interest_n in_o the_o covenant_n and_o promise_n that_o give_v they_o right_o to_o and_o be_v the_o ground_n upon_o which_o we_o apply_v baptism_n the_o present_a token_n of_o the_o covenant_n to_o they_o though_o we_o own_o and_o acknowledge_v both_o to_o stand_v alike_o relate_v to_o abraham_n as_o his_o seed_n but_o it_o be_v not_o their_o relation_n unto_o abraham_n that_o we_o ground_n their_o baptism_n upon_o that_o be_v their_o covenant-interest_n so_o that_o do_v they_o stand_v relate_v to_o abraham_n or_o no_o which_o be_v whole_o another_o question_n yet_o see_v they_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o the_o covenant_n they_o ought_v to_o have_v the_o token_n of_o it_o apply_v to_o they_o so_o that_o i_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o charge_n mr._n hutchinson_n with_o that_o mistake_n and_o so_o far_o as_o he_o proceed_v thereon_o his_o book_n must_v needs_o be_v utter_o useless_a and_o yet_o ex_fw-la abundanti_fw-la in_o that_o very_a place_n in_o my_o postscript_n to_o mr._n hutchinson_n i_o do_v express_o own_o that_o their_o relation_n to_o abraham_n and_o show_v the_o insufficiency_n of_o his_o reason_n against_o that_o ground_n suppose_v we_o have_v plead_v for_o their_o church-membership_n and_o

by_o fall_v into_o a_o double_a absurdity_n himself_o 1._o in_o say_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o administration_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n 2._o in_o imply_v that_o

whether_o he_o have_v not_o leave_v his_o book_n as_o he_o find_v it_o be_v yourselves_o judge_n indeed_o have_v mr._n d'laun_n say_v that_o as_o under_o the_o first_o testament_n the_o old_a covenant_n do_v so_o under_o the_o new-testament_n the_o new_a covenant_n do_v subserve_v or_o administer_v to_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n proper_o so_o call_v he_o have_v possible_o hit_v upon_o a_o truth_n of_o no_o small_a importance_n for_o the_o right_a understanding_n the_o various_a covenant_n god_n have_v make_v with_o men._n but_o to_o have_v do_v as_o to_o what_o mr._n d'laun_n say_v concern_v my_o deny_v that_o i_o call_v mr._n danvers_n book_n all_o forgery_n which_o he_o insinuate_v to_o proceed_v from_o weakness_n of_o memory_n you_o shall_v be_v my_o judge_n whether_o i_o have_v not_o reason_n so_o to_o do_v and_o whether_o my_o so_o do_v argue_v any_o weakness_n of_o memory_n or_o no_o sure_o have_v i_o call_v it_o all_o forgery_n mr._n d'laun_n will_v have_v produce_v my_o word_n which_o he_o can_v do_v it_o be_v true_a some_o have_v think_v i_o be_v oversharp_a in_o some_o passage_n in_o that_o book_n to_o who_o i_o have_v two_o thing_n to_o say_v 1._o that_o as_o mr._n hutchinson_n apologize_v for_o himself_o express_v it_o error_n can_v be_v dispute_v against_o without_o give_v it_o its_o name_n and_o its_o abetter_n can_v be_v reprove_v and_o admonish_v but_o in_o word_n accommodate_v to_o their_o mistake_v which_o indeed_o be_v not_o rail_v but_o plain-dealing_a if_o this_o be_v a_o sufficient_a apology_n for_o mr._n hutchinson_n why_o not_o for_o i_o 2._o the_o true_a reason_n why_o i_o do_v express_v myself_o in_o more_o sharpness_n than_o be_v usual_a for_o i_o to_o do_v be_v that_o i_o may_v have_v engage_v either_o mr._n danvers_n or_o some_o other_o learned_a antipaedobaptists_a in_o a_o through_o examination_n of_o the_o argument_n i_o have_v both_o in_o my_o first_o book_n and_o occasional_o in_o that_o answer_n offer_v for_o the_o establishment_n of_o the_o practice_n of_o infant-baptism_n i_o know_v the_o way_n of_o my_o procedure_n be_v somewhat_o different_a from_o what_o other_o have_v go_v before_o i_o in_o and_o i_o conclude_v that_o a_o thorough_a examination_n of_o my_o argument_n may_v be_v great_o useful_a either_o for_o the_o detection_n of_o my_o mistake_v suppose_v i_o have_v lie_v under_o any_o or_o for_o the_o far_o establish_n of_o the_o practice_n i_o plead_v for_o a_o rational_a logical_a discourse_n as_o i_o have_v express_v myself_o in_o the_o examination_n of_o the_o chief_a ground_n i_o have_v lay_v down_o will_v have_v be_v exceed_v welcome_a unto_o i_o and_o i_o judge_v that_o such_o quicken_a expression_n may_v have_v engage_v some_o body_n in_o that_o service_n i_o have_v only_o thus_o much_o more_o to_o add_v that_o whereas_o mr._n hutchinson_n and_o mr._n d'laun_n again_o and_o again_o insinuate_v as_o though_o i_o have_v only_o dictate_v and_o not_o add_v any_o thing_n for_o proof_n of_o my_o position_n and_o assertion_n i_o shall_v appeal_v to_o your_o conscience_n whether_o it_o be_v so_o or_o no_o and_o challenge_v mr._n d'laun_n yea_o or_o any_o other_o 1._o to_o produce_v any_o one_o position_n or_o assertion_n wherein_o the_o cause_n of_o infant-baptism_n be_v concern_v that_o i_o have_v lay_v down_o without_o proof_n yea_o and_o that_o when_o it_o can_v rational_o have_v be_v judge_v to_o be_v necessary_a by_o argument_n lay_v down_o and_o prosecute_v syllogistical_o 2._o to_o instance_n in_o any_o one_o argument_n or_o objection_n that_o be_v offer_v and_o raise_v against_o our_o judgement_n and_o practice_n by_o mr._n tomb_n in_o the_o three_o part_n of_o his_o review_n or_o any_o where_o else_o or_o any_o other_o that_o i_o have_v not_o either_o express_o answer_v or_o at_o least_o may_v not_o receive_v a_o just_a and_o full_a answer_n from_o what_o i_o have_v say_v in_o the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o of_o those_o tract_n i_o have_v make_v public_a to_o instance_n in_o any_o one_o of_o all_o those_o argument_n i_o have_v lay_v down_o that_o either_o mr._n hutchinson_n or_o mr._n
