and_o educate_v they_o according_a to_o their_o covenant_n 8._o it_o be_v plain_a that_o if_o there_o be_v none_o to_o promise_v so_o to_o educate_v they_o the_o church_n will_v not_o baptize_v they_o and_o god_n himself_o who_o allow_v the_o israelite_n and_o still_o allow_v we_o to_o bring_v our_o child_n into_o his_o covenant_n do_v it_o on_o this_o supposition_n that_o we_o promise_v also_o to_o go_v on_o to_o do_v our_o duty_n for_o they_o and_o that_o we_o actual_o do_v it_o 9_o all_o this_o set_v together_o make_v it_o plain_a 1._o that_o god_n never_o promise_v the_o adult_n in_o baptism_n though_o true_a believer_n that_o he_o will_v work_v in_o they_o all_o grace_n further_o by_o his_o sanctify_a spirit_n let_v they_o never_o so_o much_o neglect_v or_o resist_v he_o or_o that_o he_o will_v absolute_o see_v that_o they_o never_o shall_v resist_v he_o nor_o that_o the_o spirit_n shall_v still_o help_v they_o though_o they_o neglect_v all_o his_o mean_n or_o that_o he_o will_v keep_v they_o from_o neglect_v the_o mean_n election_n may_v secure_v this_o to_o the_o elect_a as_o such_o but_o the_o baptismal_a covenant_n as_o such_o secure_v it_o not_o to_o the_o baptize_v nor_o to_o believer_n as_o such_o 2._o and_o consequent_o that_o infant_n be_v in_o covenant_n with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n still_o conditional_o as_o their_o parent_n be_v and_o that_o the_o

that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o your_o sanctifier_n will_v afford_v you_o all_o necessary_a help_n in_o the_o use_n of_o those_o mean_n which_o he_o have_v appoint_v you_o to_o receive_v his_o help_n
