kellie_n postscript_n the_o anabaptist_n think_v and_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o command_n for_o infant_n baptism_n be_v such_o as_o do_v not_o understand_v nor_o make_v confession_n of_o faith_n or_o sin_n and_o yet_o we_o give_v they_o scripture_n command_v many_o and_o full_a though_o nothing_o will_v satisfy_v they_o no_o not_o when_o they_o have_v good_a measure_n press_v down_o shake_v together_o and_o run_v over_o as_o gen._n 17._o there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o command_n for_o infant_n that_o can_v confess_v but_o a_o reason_n that_o still_o hold_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o lord_n be_v their_o god_n and_o god_n threaten_v the_o disobedient_a and_o this_o command_n in_o the_o substantial_o be_v never_o abrogate_a therefore_o here_o be_v the_o first_o command_n with_o a_o full_a perpetual_a reason_n and_o with_o a_o threaten_a and_o a_o command_n of_o a_o continual_a stand_n and_o be_v the_o very_a same_o with_o baptism_n in_o the_o essentials_n 2._o when_o christ_n command_v infant_n to_o be_v bring_v to_o he_o to_o bless_v they_o to_o pray_v for_o they_o to_o lay_v his_o hand_n on_o they_o therein_o he_o command_v as_o much_o and_o more_o than_o baptism_n come_v to_o so_o here_o be_v a_o second_o command_n run_v over_o with_o the_o wrath_n of_o christ_n to_o they_o that_o oppose_v it_o 3._o matth._n 28._o baptise_v all_o nation_n be_v a_o command_n likewise_o of_o a_o full_a measure_n run_v over_o for_o it_o do_v not_o only_o reach_v infant_n but_o all_o nation_n 4._o act_n 2._o peter_n command_v every_o one_o to_o be_v baptise_a with_o a_o reason_n reach_v infant_n for_o they_o be_v the_o promise_n and_o here_o again_o you_o have_v both_o precept_n and_o promise_v and_o yet_o the_o anabaptist_n say_v there_o be_v no_o command_n what_o be_v it_o to_o set_v the_o word_n of_o god_n at_o naught_o and_o to_o cast_v his_o commandment_n behind_o our_o back_n if_o this_o be_v none_o let_v such_o therefore_o take_v heed_n lest_o the_o lord_n come_v and_o tear_v they_o in_o piece_n while_o there_o shall_v be_v none_o to_o deliver_v remember_v john_n leydan_n and_o such_o fellow_n infant_n have_v all_o the_o grace_n set_v forth_o and_o seal_v in_o baptism_n therefore_o be_v to_o be_v baptise_a they_o be_v justify_v sanctify_v regenerate_v clothe_v with_o christ_n plant_v with_o he_o add_v to_o the_o church_n incorporate_v in_o his_o body_n entitle_v in_o the_o covenant_n to_o have_v the_o lord_n for_o their_o god_n dead_a bury_v and_o rise_v again_o with_o he_o and_o have_v by_o god_n command_n for_o many_o hundred_o year_n a_o right_a to_o a_o ordinance_n equivalent_a to_o baptism_n be_v then_o profitable_a every_o way_n and_o the_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n and_o be_v never_o since_o put_v aside_o from_o baptism_n but_o by_o that_o woeful_a generation_n of_o anabaptist_n here_o of_o late_a since_o the_o begin_n of_o luther_n oppose_v the_o pope_n since_o which_o time_n the_o lord_n have_v fearful_o blast_v that_o wicked_a sort_n of_o people_n in_o many_o nation_n and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o child_n in_o their_o infancy_n have_v a_o undoubted_a full_a and_o clear_a right_n from_o scripture_n for_o their_o baptism_n still_o to_o this_o day_n and_o shall_v have_v till_o the_o last_o day_n when_o the_o anabaptist_n shall_v be_v judge_v and_o convince_v to_o purpose_n of_o all_o the_o ungodly_a deed_n and_o speech_n which_o they_o have_v do_v and_o speak_v against_o christ_n truth_n and_o as_o for_o the_o particular_a grace_n that_o i_o have_v name_v as_o justification_n of_o infant_n sanctification_n etc._n etc._n i_o shall_v god_n willing_a if_o i_o be_v put_v unto_o it_o easy_o prove_v all_o these_o grace_n to_o belong_v to_o infant_n in_o our_o dutiful_a and_o charitable_a judgement_n against_o any_o anabaptist_n in_o england_n whosoever_o he_o be_v i_o can_v wish_v with_o all_o my_o heart_n that_o the_o anabaptist_n will_v weigh_v well_o and_o consider_v what_o i_o write_v without_o prejudice_n remember_v that_o it_o be_v no_o shame_n for_o they_o to_o forsake_v their_o error_n but_o rather_o their_o honour_n and_o happiness_n to_o turn_v to_o the_o truth_n and_o stand_v for_o it_o and_o it_o be_v both_o their_o shame_n and_o sin_n to_o be_v harden_v in_o their_o heart_n against_o it_o better_o than_o they_o have_v forsake_v this_o error_n and_o
