A31094	A briefe answer to A discourse, lately written by one P.B., to prove baptisme under the defection of Antichrist, to be the ordinance of Iesus Christ, and the baptizing of infants to be agreeable to the word of God wherein is declared ... that true baptisme and a false church are inconsistent, and cannot stand together : and also maintained, that the baptizing of infants hath no authority from the Scriptures / by R. Barrow.	Barrow, Robert, d. 1697.	1642 (1642)	Wing B967; ESTC R12474	18,380	26

they_o may_v perish_v and_o be_v damn_v and_o therefore_o not_o in_o any_o wise_a to_o be_v esteem_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n or_o temple_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o from_o his_o own_o ground_n see_v that_o by_o antichrist_n here_o speak_v of_o he_o understand_v the_o beast_n mention_v rev._n 13._o as_o appear_v by_o his_o apply_v this_o scripture_n against_o

book_n of_o life_n rev._n 13.8_o he_o can_v therefore_o understand_v the_o same_o to_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n where_o antichrist_n sit_v and_o be_v worship_v unless_o he_o conceive_v that_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n consist_v of_o such_o person_n who_o name_n be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n which_o i_o suppose_v he_o do_v not_o and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v from_o his_o own_o ground_n that_o the_o temple_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o 2_o thes._n 2.4_o be_v no_o more_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n than_o antichrist_n who_o sit_v therein_o and_o be_v worship_v be_v

it_o can_v be_v make_v to_o appear_v probable_a that_o the_o visible_a church_n have_v continue_v under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n but_o it_o must_v stand_v as_o p._n b._n at_o first_o affirm_v page_n 2._o that_o under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n it_o can_v not_o continue_v but_o suppose_v it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o church_n have_v continue_v under_o that_o defection_n than_o he_o say_v pag._n 3._o that_o baptism_n by_o which_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v have_v there_o likewise_o continue_a and_o there_o also_o it_o will_v be_v probable_a that_o his_o baptism_n derive_v from_o thence_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o jesus_n christ_n here_o we_o may_v take_v notice_n by_o way_n that_o the_o best_a ground_n he_o have_v for_o his_o faith_n in_o this_o particular_a be_v but_o a_o probability_n well_o but_o see_v that_o he_o hold_v that_o baptism_n depend_v upon_o the_o true_a church_n than_o where_o no_o true_a church_n be_v there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a baptism_n now_o i_o need_v not_o here_o demand_v whether_o conceive_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v a_o true_a church_n because_o in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o reader_n page_n 5._o he_o desire_v that_o none_o shall_v think_v so_o of_o he_o for_o there_o he_o say_v that_o he_o hold_v that_o state_n to_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o fornication_n the_o great_a whore_n sodom_n and_o egypt_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o hence_o follow_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v not_o christ_n baptism_n for_o thus_o he_o reason_v if_o the_o church_n have_v continue_v than_o baptism_n by_o which_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v have_v continue_v page_n 3._o but_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v not_o continue_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o be_v become_v the_o mother_n of_o fornication_n sodom_n and_o egypt_n as_o he_o faith_n in_o his_o epistle_n page_n 5._o therefore_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v have_v not_o continue_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n whereas_o therefore_o page_n 5._o he_o desire_v those_o which_o hold_v that_o the_o church_n and_o baptism_n have_v not_o continue_v under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n will_v show_v he_o the_o error_n and_o absurdity_n of_o such_o a_o opinion_n he_o may_v easy_o discover_v the_o error_n and_o absurdity_n hereof_o himself_o if_o he_o will_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o he_o have_v herein_o write_v viz._n that_o baptism_n difference_v the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o false_a pag._n 3.4_o whence_o it_o will_v necessary_o follow_v that_o if_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n which_o difference_v the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o false_a than_o rome_n the_o false_a matter_n must_v thereby_o be_v difference_v from_o itself_o and_o become_v a_o true_a church_n as_o when_o at_o first_o she_o receive_v christ_n baptism_n and_o then_o shall_v rome_n be_v no_o long_o rome_n but_o a_o true_a church_n and_o state_n difference_v from_o a_o false_a by_o her_o baptism_n which_o difference_v the_o true_a matter_n from_o the_o false_a and_o therefore_o for_o any_o to_o hold_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v a_o false_a church_n as_o p._n b._n do_v and_o withal_o to_o maintain_v that_o she_o retain_v the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n whereby_o the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v from_o the_o false_a be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v affirm_v even_o as_o he_o do_v that_o rome_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o fornication_n and_o also_o that_o rome_n be_v the_o true_a spouse_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v both_o absurd_a and_o contradictory_a i_o will_v therefore_o conclude_v this_o point_n thus_o see_v that_o true_a baptism_n difference_v the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o false_a as_o p.b._n say_v and_o yet_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o difference_n she_o from_o the_o false_a matter_n as_o he_o also_o affirm_v in_o his_o epistle_n page_n 5._o therefore_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o that_o baptism_n of_o christ_n which_o difference_v the_o true_a matter_n from_o the_o false_a page_n 3.4_o second_o that_o church_n which_o have_v no_o other_o baptism_n than_o the_o baptism_n of_o rome_n which_o difference_v not_o the_o true_a matter_n from_o the_o false_a can_v thereby_o be_v difference_v from_o the_o false_a church_n but_o p.b._n and_o his_o church_n have_v no_o other_o baptism_n than_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o difference_v not_o the_o true_a matter_n from_o the_o false_a therefore_o p._n b._n and_o his_o church_n be_v not_o yet_o difference_v from_o the_o false_a church_n whether_o therefore_o christ_n will_v own_v the_o same_o for_o his_o spouse_n or_o reject_v she_o as_o a_o harlot_n spring_v from_o the_o mother_n of_o fornication_n and_o harlos_n may_v very_o well_o be_v a_o question_n without_o question_n but_o he_o say_v page_n 6._o if_o the_o visible_a church_n have_v not_o continue_v than_o baptism_n be_v cease_v and_o be_v cease_v without_o a_o special_a commission_n such_o as_o john_n the_o baptist_n have_v at_o first_o to_o baptise_v it_o can_v never_o be_v again_o obtain_v to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o although_o baptism_n be_v cease_v as_o he_o intend_v it_o viz._n that_o there_o be_v no_o baptise_a person_n in_o the_o world_n to_o be_v find_v yet_o so_o long_o as_o baptism_n the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n be_v find_v in_o the_o word_n with_o a_o commission_n serve_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n for_o believer_n or_o disciple_n to_o make_v and_o baptise_v disciple_n as_o mat._n 28.19.20_o baptism_n may_v be_v again_o obtain_v without_o any_o such_o special_a commission_n as_o that_o which_o at_o first_o be_v give_v to_o john_n the_o baptist_n for_o it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o because_o john_n the_o baptist_n may_v not_o baptise_v before_o baptism_n be_v institute_v and_o he_o command_v to_o baptise_v that_o therefore_o believer_n after_o baptism_n be_v institute_v and_o command_v to_o make_v and_o baptise_v disciple_n may_v not_o lawful_o baptise_v such_o as_o be_v make_v disciple_n no_o more_o than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o because_o abraham_n may_v not_o circumcise_v himself_o and_o his_o male_n before_o circumcision_n be_v institute_v and_o he_o command_v so_o to_o do_v that_o therefore_o the_o israelite_n after_o circumcision_n be_v institute_v and_o they_o command_v to_o observe_v the_o same_o may_v not_o without_o a_o special_a commission_n such_o as_o abraham_n have_v lawful_o circumcise_v their_o male_n it_o be_v necessary_a indeed_o that_o john_n the_o baptist_n shall_v have_v a_o special_a commission_n to_o baptise_v baptism_n be_v not_o before_o institute_v nor_o yet_o he_o nor_o any_o other_o person_n require_v to_o baptise_v as_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o the_o first_o building_n of_o the_o temple_n that_o a_o pattern_n shall_v be_v give_v chron._n
