A27008	Rich. Baxter's review of the state of Christian's infants whether they should be entered in covenant with God by baptism ... or whether Christ, the Saviour of the world, hath shut all mankind out of his visible kingdom ... 'till they come of age? : occasioned by the importunity of Mr. E. Hutchinson (and of Mr. Danvers and Mr. Tombes) who called him to this review in order to his retractation [sic] ...; Review of the state of Christian's infants	Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1676 (1676)	Wing B1372; ESTC R18045	43,710	73

christ_n wash_v and_o sanctify_v his_o church_n &_o he_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o his_o body_n only_o and_o if_o they_o be_v not_o of_o his_o church_n or_o body_n he_o wash_v they_o not_o nor_o be_v their_o saviour_n effective_o the_o same_o text_n that_o say_v he_o that_o believe_v shall_v be_v save_v say_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o if_o therefore_o you_o allow_v they_o no_o participation_n in_o their_o parent_n faith_n but_o require_v personal_a belief_n of_o they_o as_o necessary_a to_o their_o salvation_n according_a to_o the_o promise_n you_o must_v also_o require_v the_o same_o of_o they_o to_o save_v they_o from_o damnation_n by_o the_o threaten_v do_v you_o but_o leave_v christian_n no_o more_o hope_n than_o you_o do_v pagan_n and_o turk_n of_o their_o child_n pardon_n and_o salvation_n i_o will_v not_o be_v ambitious_a of_o the_o joy_n of_o your_o opinion_n much_o less_o if_o you_o positive_o condemn_v they_o and_o what_o do_v you_o less_o if_o find_v they_o condemn_v by_o the_o violate_a covenant_n of_o innocency_n you_o total_o exclude_v they_o from_o the_o remedy_n pardon_v and_o save_v covenant_n and_o from_o christ_n body_n which_o he_o do_v save_v if_o you_o say_v that_o they_o may_v be_v of_o his_o invisible_a church_n which_o be_v the_o save_v body_n i_o answer_v 1._o what_o they_o may_v be_v tell_v we_o not_o what_o they_o be_v if_o they_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o visible_a member_n who_o can_v say_v that_o they_o be_v invisible_a one_o 2._o they_o be_v by_o nature_n visible_a member_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o satan_n and_o child_n of_o wrath_n and_o visible_o under_o the_o law_n condemnation_n therefore_o till_o we_o can_v prove_v they_o visible_o by_o grace_n translate_v out_o of_o this_o state_n of_o nature_n their_o visible_a condemnation_n can_v be_v deny_v and_o what_o a_o jumble_z make_v you_o if_o you_o make_v a_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n to_o be_v at_o once_o condemn_v visible_a member_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o invisible_a save_v member_n of_o christ_n man_n may_v be_v visible_o christian_n hypocrite_n and_o yet_o invisible_o wicked_a but_o to_o be_v visible_o condemn_v member_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o darkness_n and_o yet_o invisible_a member_n of_o christ_n be_v strange_a to_o i_o especial_o consider_v that_o hypocrite_n be_v visible_o what_o they_o be_v not_o real_o and_o invisible_o because_o they_o false_o profess_v what_o they_o have_v not_o but_o a_o condemn_a infant_n do_v not_o

that_o as_o god_n word_n be_v true_a he_o continue_v so_o till_o he_o be_v deliver_v by_o grace_n and_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v the_o conveyance_n of_o and_o title_n to_o our_o gracious_a

but_o if_o they_o be_v justify_v either_o it_o be_v by_o some_o justify_v promise_n and_o covenant_n or_o without_o if_o without_o 1._o do_v you_o not_o give_v hope_n also_o to_o all_o heathen_n and_o

by_o what_o mean_n be_v it_o by_o any_o or_o none_o if_o by_o any_o by_o what_o if_o by_o none_o how_o know_v you_o it_o but_o if_o it_o be_v by_o any_o covenant-grant_a that_o they_o be_v justify_v

till_o we_o come_v to_o age_n and_o he_o be_v scarce_o so_o like_a to_o prove_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n at_o age_n who_o be_v train_v up_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n till_o then_o as_o

think_v that_o christian_a parent_n will_v want_v one_o of_o their_o motive_n to_o live_v in_o thankfulness_n to_o god_n and_o to_o magnify_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o redeemer_n if_o they_o do_v believe_v that_o all_o infant_n be_v in_o the_o visible_a kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o have_v no_o promise_n or_o covenant-grant_a of_o pardon_n remedy_n or_o life_n 2._o the_o want_n of_o this_o demonstration_n of_o divine_a love_n will_v be_v a_o disadvantage_n to_o their_o love_n to_o god_n for_o where_o much_o be_v forgive_v there_o will_v be_v much_o love_n 3._o it_o will_v deprive_v christian_a parent_n of_o all_o the_o forementioned_a comfort_n for_o their_o child_n good_a and_o leave_v they_o to_o mourn_v for_o the_o dead_a as_o those_o that_o have_v no_o hope_n which_o any_o promise_n of_o god_n allow_v they_o 4._o parent_n will_v be_v more_o negligent_a in_o the_o pious_a education_n of_o their_o child_n than_o they_o be_v for_o their_o solemn_a vow_n and_o promise_n be_v a_o great_a additional_a obligation_n 5._o young_a person_n will_v be_v more_o bold_a in_o sin_n when_o they_o know_v that_o they_o be_v under_o no_o covenant_n vow_n or_o promise_v to_o the_o contrary_a and_o they_o will_v usual_o delay_v their_o repentance_n and_o baptism_n as_o constantine_n and_o many_o in_o those_o time_n do_v as_o think_v that_o all_o sin_n be_v do_v away_o when_o i_o repent_v and_o be_o baptise_a but_o it_o be_v more_o dangerous_a to_o sin_n after_o baptism_n than_o before_o and_o so_o most_o will_v think_v it_o best_o to_o live_v out_o of_o the_o church_n and_o to_o die_v in_o it_o to_o live_v as_o infidel_n and_o die_v as_o christian_n to_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n as_o do_v the_o wicked_a and_o to_o be_v regenerate_v before_o death_n and_o to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a 6._o these_o delay_n will_v do_v as_o delay_n of_o repentance_n now_o do_v to_o many_o even_o drive_v away_o god_n spirit_n forfeit_a grace_n harden_v the_o heart_n so_o that_o few_o delayer_n will_v be_v convert_v 7._o by_o these_o delay_n of_o repentance_n and_o liberty_n of_o sin_n wickedness_n will_v more_o abound_v and_o so_o god_n judgement_n against_o the_o land_n be_v more_o increase_v 8._o pagan_n and_o infidel_n will_v be_v harden_v and_o encourage_v by_o the_o multitude_n of_o the_o unbaptised_a and_o the_o paucity_n of_o christian_n 9_o for_o christian_n will_v be_v but_o few_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o multitude_n just_a as_o mr._n tomb_n think_v christ_n will_v have_v it_o hear_v one_o and_o there_o one_o 10._o and_o while_o some_o delay_v their_o baptism_n in_o scruple_n as_o many_o now_o do_v the_o lord_n supper_n and_o other_o to_o take_v the_o liberty_n of_o sin_v which_o be_v like_a to_o be_v the_o common_a case_n of_o youth_n and_o other_o in_o senseless_a negligence_n the_o baptise_a and_o unbaptise_v will_v grow_v like_o our_o nonconformist_n and_o conformist_n into_o distinct_a party_n upon_o distinct_a interest_n in_o point_n of_o reputation_n and_o so_o the_o unbaptised_a become_v the_o adversary_n for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o baptise_a 11._o and_o the_o rich_a and_o the_o multitude_n be_v usual_o the_o unbaptised_a party_n they_o will_v be_v still_o the_o strong_a and_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o rest_n and_o the_o law_n and_o government_n will_v be_v such_o as_o the_o governor_n 12._o and_o hereupon_o the_o church_n will_v be_v as_o before_o the_o day_n of_o constantine_n ordinary_o under_o persecution_n 13._o this_o persecution_n will_v detain_v the_o most_o
