A35303	A just reply to Mr. John Flavell's arguments by way of answer to a discourse lately published, entitled, A solemn call, &c. wherein it is further plainly proved that the covenant made with Israel on Mount Sinai, as also the covenant of circumcision made with Abraham, whereon so much stress is laid for the support of infants baptism ... : together with a reply to Mr. Joseph Whiston's reflections on the forementioned discourse, in a late small tract of his entituled, The right method for the proving of infants baptism ... / by Philip Cary ...

this_o question_n he_o have_v plain_o resolve_v in_o that_o late_a excellent_a and_o judicious_a discourse_n of_o he_o entitle_v the_o doctrine_n of_o justification_n by_o impute_v righteousness_n

that_o the_o sinai_n covenant_n admit_v not_o repentance_n of_o sin_n be_v as_o evident_a since_o pardon_v of_o sin_n and_o curse_n for_o sin_n be_v inconsistent_a for_o the_o scripture_n do_v

when_o they_o tell_v we_o upon_o 2_o cor._n 3._o 6._o that_o the_o law_n be_v only_o a_o revelation_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n concern_v man_n duty_n no_o revelation_n of_o god_n grace_n either_o
