which_o be_v and_o which_o be_v muchwhat_a the_o same_o and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o acceptable_a a_o thing_n to_o christ_n for_o we_o to_o receive_v one_o such_o little_a child_n in_o his_o name_n as_o that_o he_o take_v it_o as_o well_o as_o if_o we_o receive_v he_o nay_o take_v himself_o to_o be_v receive_v in_o our_o so_o receive_v it_o which_o can_v not_o well_o be_v if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o member_n of_o his_o body_n the_o church_n can_v you_o then_o think_v it_o a_o thing_n displease_v to_o he_o to_o baptize_v such_o in_o his_o name_n when_o as_o that_o be_v a_o sacred_a rite_n appoint_v by_o he_o for_o a_o solemn_a receive_v such_o in_o his_o name_n into_o his_o church_n as_o do_v belong_v to_o he_o as_o doubtless_o such_o infant_n do_v or_o else_o they_o can_v not_o be_v receive_v in_o his_o name_n and_o when_o christ_n have_v give_v commission_n to_o disciple_v all_o nation_n and_o baptize_v they_o can_v you_o fancy_v that_o the_o same_o commission_n imply_v a_o prohibition_n to_o baptize_v little_a child_n though_o they_o be_v disciple_n if_o little_a child_n be_v make_v disciple_n in_o their_o parent_n be_v make_v so_o and_o that_o in_o god_n account_n and_o by_o his_o appointment_n then_o to_o baptize_v they_o certain_o can_v be_v a_o deviation_n from_o christ_n commission_n to_o baptize_v disciple_n and_o last_o if_o our_o saviour_n have_v say_v it_o of_o some_o little_a child_n that_o they_o believe_v in_o he_o than_o the_o same_o commission_n which_o authorize_v the_o baptise_v of_o believer_n must_v authorise_v the_o baptise_v of_o they_o the_o commission_n be_v general_a to_o baptize_v disciple_n indefinite_o and_o therefore_o must_v needs_o extend_v to_o all_o that_o be_v so_o or_o that_o be_v believer_n though_o but_o in_o the_o low_a sense_n these_o be_v no_o force_v or_o far_o fetch_v consequence_n but_o flow_v natural_o from_o their_o premise_n and_o whereas_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o baptism_n as_o the_o sacrament_n of_o regeneration_n or_o new_a birth_n which_o you_o make_v as_o a_o argument_n against_o the_o administration_n of_o it_o to_o infant_n by_o reason_n of_o their_o incapacity_n for_o regeneration_n you_o shall_v consider_v first_o that_o circumcision_n be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o regeneration_n as_o well_o as_o baptism_n be_v and_o yet_o infant_n be_v not_o uncapable_a of_o it_o upon_o any_o such_o account_n circumcision_n in_o the_o letter_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o spiritual_a circumcision_n of_o that_o make_v without_o hand_n the_o circumcision_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o be_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n and_o what_o thing_n more_o spiritual_a than_o this_o be_v i_o pray_v you_o signify_v by_o baptism_n which_o consider_v the_o spirituality_n of_o baptism_n in_o nature_n or_o use_n be_v no_o more_o a_o argument_n against_o infant_n capacity_n for_o baptism_n than_o the_o spiritual_a use_n of_o circumcision_n be_v a_o argument_n against_o that_o and_o this_o be_v sufficient_a to_o take_v off_o your_o argument_n but_o you_o may_v consider_v yet_o far_o that_o infant_n even_o while_o such_o must_v needs_o be_v capable_a of_o regeneration_n in_o one_o sense_n or_o other_o unless_o you_o will_v say_v they_o be_v not_o in_o a_o salyable_a state_n which_o yet_o you_o have_v not_o be_v wont_a to_o say_v or_o else_o that_o unregenerate_a person_n may_v

seem_v to_o be_v under_o a_o necessity_n of_o grant_v infant_n to_o be_v capable_a of_o regeneration_n in_o a_o sense_n more_o or_o less_o proper_a and_o if_o you_o think_v regeneration_n most_o proper_o and_o strict_o take_v to_o be_v incompetent_a to_o a_o infant_n state_n as_o regeneration_n signify_v that_o new_a state_n into_o which_o a_o person_n be_v bring_v by_o a_o change_n in_o the_o frame_n and_o temper_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o will_n and_o by_o a_o regulation_n of_o the_o motion_n and_o operation_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o reference_n to_o their_o several_a object_n than_o you_o must_v be_v constrain_v to_o accept_v of_o another_o sense_n of_o regeneration_n and_o such_o as_o be_v more_o competent_a to_o a_o infant_n state_n unless_o as_o i_o say_v you_o will_v say_v that_o person_n may_v go_v to_o heaven_n in_o a_o unregenerate_a state_n 19.28_o dr._n hammonds_n annot_n mat._n 19.28_o now_o therefore_o since_o the_o word_n translate_v regeneration_n according_a

that_o in_o infant_n which_o answer_v the_o outward_a sign_n in_o baptism_n in_o that_o respect_n also_o these_o thing_n consider_v you_o may_v well_o infer_v that_o if_o that_o new_a state_n into_o

whosoever_o shall_v receive_v this_o child_n the_o individual_a child_n then_o set_v by_o our_o saviour_n in_o my_o name_n receive_v i_o and_o if_o that_o child_n or_o other_o such_o be_v to_o be_v

they_o be_v receive_v in_o his_o name_n now_o to_o receive_v one_o into_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o receive_v one_o in_o his_o name_n therefore_o since_o our_o saviour_n will_v have_v some_o little_a child_n receive_v in_o his_o name_n he_o will_v have_v they_o receive_v into_o his_o church_n the_o word_n whosoever_o shall_v receive_v this_o child_n in_o my_o name_n receive_v i_o
