what_o we_o can_v gather_v elsewhere_o i_o can_v for_o present_v find_v a_o place_n where_o he_o more_o full_o express_v himself_o than_o in_o his_o plain_a scrip_n etc._n etc._n pag._n 336._o of_o

in_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o parent_n i_o answer_v they_o 1._o that_o it_o be_v evident_a in_o all_o the_o scripture_n that_o god_n put_v a_o very_a great_a difference_n between_o the_o child_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o other_o man_n which_o i_o grant_v but_o withal_o that_o this_o be_v true_a only_a of_o the_o sincere_o faithful_a and_o not_o only_o inexternal_a profession_n and_o yet_o not_o so_o as_o to_o count_v any_o a_o visible_a church-member_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n for_o the_o parent_n faith_n 2._o say_v he_o that_o he_o make_v such_o promise_n to_o they_o and_o give_v

elect_v and_o true_a believer_n if_o other_o promise_n of_o temporal_a blessing_n they_o be_v not_o make_v to_o the_o child_n of_o mere_a seem_a believer_n but_o true_a believer_n nor_o do_v they_o at_o all_o reach_n to_o visible_a church-membership_a or_o justification_n of_o child_n these_o privilege_n be_v no_o where_o promise_v to_o the_o child_n of_o believe_a christian_n though_o sincere_a

condition_n require_v in_o a_o infant_n heb._n 12._o 14._o and_o elsewhere_o but_o he_o add_v and_o do_v not_o this_o plain_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o parent_n faith_n be_v the_o condition_n if_o

follow_v that_o the_o parent_n faith_n be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o infant_n church-membership_a and_o justification_n for_o there_o be_v other_o way_n to_o wit_n their_o election_n christ_n

the_o parent_n be_v not_o a_o believer_n the_o child_n be_v leave_v out_o for_o if_o it_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n it_o be_v most_o false_a that_o if_o the_o parent_n be_v a_o
