A89563	A defence of infant-baptism: in answer to two treatises, and an appendix to them concerning it; lately published by Mr. Jo. Tombes. Wherein that controversie is fully discussed, the ancient and generally received use of it from the apostles dayes, untill the Anabaptists sprung up in Germany, manifested. The arguments for it from the holy Scriptures maintained, and the objections against it answered. / By Steven Marshall B.D. minister of the Gospell, at Finchingfield in Essex.

part_n of_o the_o covenant_n i_o desire_v to_o know_v of_o you_o what_o scripture_n ever_o make_v circumcision_n a_o seal_n of_o canaan_n we_o have_v express_v scripture_n that_o it_o seal_v the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n whereby_o he_o be_v justify_v but_o i_o no_o where_o read_v that_o i●_n seal_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n whereas_o you_o say_v though_o the_o promise_n be_v type_n of_o spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a thing_n yet_o the_o thing_n promise_v be_v but_o carnal_a and_o earthly_a as_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v but_o carnal_a thing_n though_o shadow_n of_o spiritual_a i_o reply_v all_o this_o be_v true_a but_o this_o belong_v to_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o covenant_n as_o be_v say_v before_o but_o make_v it_o never_o a_o whit_n the_o more_o a_o mix_a covenant_n for_o the_o substance_n of_o it_o the_o covenant_n than_o be_v more_o administer_v by_o carnal_a thing_n than_o it_o be_v now_o and_o yet_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o covenant_n even_o now_o also_o have_v some_o carnal_a promise_n and_o privilege_n as_o well_o as_o then_o as_o the_o external_a ordinance_n of_o the_o gospel_n baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o we_o as_o well_o as_o they_o have_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n the_o promise_n of_o this_o life_n and_o of_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v and_o so_o you_o may_v if_o you_o will_v call_v we_o also_o a_o mix_a covenant_n consist_v both_o of_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a blessing_n and_o as_o among_o they_o some_o who_o be_v in_o covenant_n do_v partake_v only_o of_o the_o temporal_a part_n and_o never_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o spiritual_a other_o of_o they_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o spiritual_a part_n also_o even_o so_o now_o some_o partake_v of_o the_o external_a and_o carnal_a part_n only_o whilst_o other_o partake_v of_o both_o this_o you_o must_v grant_v to_o be_v true_a unless_o you_o will_v maintain_v that_o none_o be_v now_o member_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n but_o only_o elect_a and_o true_a believer_n second_o you_o except_v against_o i_o that_o when_o i_o say_v the_o manner_n of_o administration_n of_o this_o covenant_n be_v first_o by_o type_n shadow_n and_o sacrifice_n etc._n etc._n it_o have_v be_v convenient_a to_o have_v name_v circumcision_n that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v conceive_v to_o belong_v to_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o covenant_n i_o reply_v first_o this_o be_v a_o very_a small_a quarrel_n i_o add_v etc._n etc._n which_o supply_v both_o circumcision_n and_o other_o thing_n second_o you_o know_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v administer_v by_o sacrifice_n and_o other_o type_n before_o circumcision_n be_v institute_v three_o whereas_o i_o say_v there_o be_v some_o proselyte_n in_o the_o jewish_a church_n who_o be_v but_o selfe-justiciaries_a carnal_a and_o formal_a professor_n who_o be_v yet_o in_o the_o scripture_n call_v abraham_n seed_n you_o answer_v i_o call_v they_o so_o without_o the_o warrant_n of_o scripture_n as_o you_o conceive_v to_o which_o i_o reply_v my_o word_n be_v that_o there_o be_v another_o seed_n sort_n of_o abraham_n seed_n who_o be_v only_o circumcise_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o not_o in_o the_o heart_n who_o though_o they_o be_v bear_v of_o abraham_n seed_n or_o profess_a abraham_n faith_n and_o so_o be_v jews_n facti_fw-la though_o not_o nati_fw-la yet_o they_o never_o make_v abraham_n god_n their_o portion_n but_o rest_v in_o somewhat_o which_o be_v not_o christ_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o be_v to_o perish_v with_o the_o uncircumcised_a this_o you_o do_v not_o here_o deny_v to_o be_v true_a only_o you_o will_v have_v i_o show_v where_o the_o proselyte_n be_v call_v abraham_n seed_n i_o reply_v have_v i_o mention_v no_o proselyte_n at_o all_o but_o only_o say_v there_o be_v some_o in_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n who_o be_v visible_a member_n and_o partaker_n of_o outward_a church-priviledge_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o inward_o godly_a nor_o partaker_n of_o the_o spiritual_a part_n and_o that_o these_o be_v call_v abraham_n seed_n as_o well_o as_o other_o it_o have_v be_v enough_o for_o my_o purpose_n i_o name_v not_o proselyte_n to_o add_v any_o strength_n to_o the_o argument_n and_o because_o they_o be_v call_v god_n people_n i_o fear_v not_o to_o call_v they_o abraham_n child_n by_o profession_n and_o never_o expect_v to_o have_v meet_v with_o a_o quarrel_n for_o call_v they_o who_o join_v to_o the_o church_n of_o israel_n by_o that_o common_a name_n whereby_o the_o church_n member_n be_v call_v viz._n the_o seed_n of_o

but_o if_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o any_o moment_n it_o will_v be_v no_o hard_a matter_n to_o produce_v evidence_n sufficient_a to_o prove_v that_o proselyte_n be_v call_v israelite_n and_o the_o

you_o very_o wise_o mention_n neither_o of_o these_o conclusion_n of_o arminius_n you_o think_v it_o more_o for_o your_o advantage_n to_o fasten_v upon_o some_o other_o proposition_n lay_v down_o by_o
