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

to_o believe_v and_o repent_v may_v and_o shall_v be_v baptize_v and_o that_o none_o of_o year_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v till_o they_o be_v convert_v and_o believe_v and_o repent_v nor_o do_v the_o baptise_v of_o infant_n prevent_v the_o baptise_v of_o man_n of_o year_n where_o any_o such_o be_v convert_v from_o paganism_n to_o christianity_n no_o more_o than_o circumcise_n infant_n of_o old_a prevent_v the_o circumcise_n of_o man_n of_o year_n which_o be_v convert_v from_o gentilism_n to_o judaisme_n though_o it_o prevent_v the_o baptise_v of_o believer_n child_n when_o they_o come_v to_o year_n because_o they_o be_v baptize_v infant_n as_o the_o jewish_a infant_n circumcise_v when_o they_o be_v infant_n can_v not_o be_v circumcise_v when_o they_o come_v to_o year_n it_o be_v a_o weak_a and_o feeble_a consequence_n to_o say_v where_o we_o maintain_v baptise_v infant_n who_o do_v not_o actual_o believe_v that_o we_o can_v never_o baptize_v any_o that_o do_v actual_o believe_v be_v only_o true_a of_o they_o that_o be_v baptize_v infant_n and_o infant_n of_o believer_n so_o we_o come_v to_o the_o other_o sort_n of_o person_n to_o be_v baptize_v viz._n infant_n where_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v two_o thing_n 1._o what_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v 2._o that_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v first_o infant_n brief_o be_v either_o of_o infidel_n or_o believe_v parent_n the_o infant_n of_o infidel_n under_o which_o term_n i_o comprehend_v jew_n turk_n pagan_n and_o all_o but_o those_o that_o be_v true_a visible_a christian_n be_v altogether_o stranger_n to_o the_o covenant_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o so_o can_v have_v no_o right_n at_o all_o to_o this_o ordinance_n yea_o though_o the_o parent_n consent_n much_o less_o against_o their_o consent_n notwithstanding_o other_o undertake_n for_o they_o i_o except_o only_o two_o case_n 1._o slave_n and_o servant_n buy_v with_o money_n these_o be_v infant_n may_v be_v baptize_v for_o aught_o i_o know_v 2._o when_o infidel_n parent_n be_v convert_v and_o desire_v church-fellowship_n and_o thereby_o themselves_o and_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v i_o conclude_v in_o these_o two_o case_n that_o infant_n bear_v of_o infidel_n parent_n may_v be_v baptize_v and_o therefore_o i_o judge_v that_o infidel_n infant_n be_v in_o no_o wise_a to_o be_v baptize_v because_o they_o be_v unclean_a 1_o cor._n 7.14_o therefore_o such_o be_v to_o be_v defer_v till_o they_o be_v convert_v and_o give_v testimony_n of_o their_o own_o faith_n and_o repentance_n two_o question_n may_v be_v here_o resolve_v 1._o in_o case_n of_o excommunicate_a person_n whether_o a_o infant_n bear_v of_o parent_n both_o under_o the_o censure_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o state_n of_o excommunication_n may_v be_v baptize_v if_o any_o will_v undertake_v for_o they_o i_o answer_v no._n first_o because_o they_o be_v in_o that_o estate_n as_o heathen_n and_o neither_o of_o they_o in_o visible_a covenant_n second_o if_o by_o other_o undertake_v why_o not_o infant_n of_o indian_n also_o three_o if_o by_o faith_n of_o forefather_n as_o i_o see_v no_o scripture_n for_o it_o so_o where_o will_v you_o limit_v it_o suppose_v a_o convert_a child_n of_o esau_n in_o david_n time_n can_v prove_v successive_o and_o to_o all_o evident_o that_o he_o come_v of_o esau_n the_o son_n of_o isaac_n whether_o shall_v it_o have_v be_v circumcise_v as_o a_o proselyte_n or_o as_o isaac_n seed_n a_o second_o question_n be_v concern_v infant_n baptize_v of_o heretic_n whether_o lawful_a i_o answer_v if_o the_o person_n baptise_v have_v a_o true_a call_n though_o stain_v with_o some_o corruption_n in_o the_o person_n or_o call_n and_o in_o the_o administration_n of_o baptism_n nothing_o essential_a omit_v in_o matter_n or_o form_n those_o person_n be_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v again_o because_o baptism_n be_v not_o to_o be_v administer_v twice_o to_o any_o but_o if_o any_o of_o the_o essential_o be_v omit_v such_o person_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v as_o not_o baptize_v before_o and_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o other_o particular_a that_o infant_n of_o believer_n and_o visible_a professor_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v yea_o though_o but_o one_o of_o the_o parent_n be_v in_o church-fellowship_n which_o i_o shall_v prove_v after_o i_o have_v premise_v a_o few_o thing_n 1._o the_o scripture_n contain_v the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a and_o old_a testament_n be_v full_a of_o perfection_n contain_v a_o most_o perfect_a rule_n of_o all_o thing_n concern_v faith_n and_o order_n so_o that_o in_o these_o respect_n nothing_o be_v to_o be_v urge_v as_o necessary_a nor_o allow_v as_o lawful_a but_o what_o be_v just_o comprehend_v in_o they_o 2._o there_o be_v two_o way_n whereby_o we_o may_v find_v what_o god_n will_v be_v in_o all_o case_n concern_v the_o premise_n either_o in_o express_a term_n or_o by_o just_a consequence_n draw_v from_o thence_o so_o that_o whatsoever_o be_v not_o literal_o express_v or_o draw_v from_o the_o letter_n by_o necessary_a consequence_n be_v to_o be_v reject_v as_o not_o the_o lord_n mind_n 3._o whatsoever_o can_v be_v collect_v by_o true_a deduction_n from_o any_o part_n of_o scripture_n expound_v in_o the_o large_a sense_n be_v as_o true_o contain_v in_o they_o as_o that_o which_o be_v set_v down_o in_o express_a term_n and_o so_o be_v of_o the_o same_o force_n with_o that_o which_o be_v express_v so_o our_o saviour_n urge_v the_o devil_n matth._n 4._o with_o that_o word_n only_o from_o deut._n which_o yet_o be_v not_o in_o the_o text_n but_o true_o draw_v from_o thence_o so_o the_o protestant_n urge_v justification_n by_o faith_n only_o oppose_v the_o papist_n yet_o only_o be_v not_o express_v but_o necessary_o draw_v from_o thence_o for_o if_o there_o be_v but_o two_o way_n of_o justification_n as_o there_o be_v not_o and_o we_o be_v not_o justify_v by_o work_n as_o the_o text_n say_v then_o by_o faith_n only_o and_o exod._n 21.28_o etc._n etc._n under_o the_o case_n of_o a_o ox_n in_o all_o those_o particular_n clear_o by_o consequence_n any_o other_o creature_n that_o may_v do_v hurt_v in_o the_o like_a case_n be_v intend_v as_o cow_n dog_n goat_n etc._n etc._n 4._o the_o tender_a of_o immortality_n and_o happiness_n of_o god_n to_o mankind_n have_v be_v two_o way_n dispense_v first_o to_z adam_z and_o

have_v predestinate_v some_o to_o that_o adoption_n of_o sonship_n in_o his_o son_n and_o give_v they_o to_o his_o son_n to_o be_v save_v by_o he_o that_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v with_o the_o father_n and_o he_o receive_v they_o at_o his_o father_n hand_n because_o they_o be_v partaker_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n he_o himself_o also_o take_v flesh_n and_o blood_n upon_o he_o and_o in_o that_o humane_a nature_n fulfil_v the_o law_n for_o they_o actual_o and_o so_o reconcile_v they_o all_o to_o the_o father_n in_o himself_o that_o so_o god_n may_v be_v just_a and_o the_o justifier_n of_o the_o ungodly_a that_o shall_v believe_v in_o jesus_n from_o hence_o the_o father_n make_v a_o new_a tender_a of_o life_n set_v forth_o his_o son_n to_o be_v a_o propitiation_n through_o his_o
