A67323	Infants baptism from heaven, of divine institution Being a brief yet satisfactory answer to some objections made by Hercules Collins, in his book entituled, Believers baptism from heaven, infants baptism from earth, &c. against certain truths proved in a book entituled, Baptism anatomized. Propounded in five queries, by Tho. Wall. Viz. 1. What water-baptism is? 2. What is the end for which it was instituted? 3. What giveth right to it? 4. Who are the true administrators of it? 5. Whether it be lawful for a man to baptise himself? Wherein the right that the infants of believers have to water-baptism is vindicated: the duty of believing parents in that matter asserted: and that by the contrary tenet and practice, they ought themselved to be excluded from the Lords-Supper, is plainly and fully proved. And wherein is also proved, that the covenant which God made with Abraham, Gen. 17. and with Israel, Exod. 19. and Deut. 29. are the covenant of grace in Christ, and not part of the covenant of works made with Adam before his fall.

according_a to_o god_n reveal_v will_n concern_v the_o absolute_a right_o that_o insant_n of_o believer_n have_v by_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n to_o

the_o like_a fall_v away_o after_o they_o have_v be_v baptize_v with_o the_o visible_a sign_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n that_o therefore_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o believer_n in_o the_o

of_o his_o society_n be_v in_o their_o way_n baptize_v and_o in_o his_o judgement_n have_v right_o to_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o some_o of_o these_o in_o time_n do_v fall_v into_o gross_a sin_n as_o to_o deny_v even_o the_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord's-supper_n as_o not_o to_o be_v administer_v at_o all_o as_o likewise_o into_o other_o gross_a sin_n will_v he_o conclude_v that_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o society_n because_o some_o be_v become_v so_o wicked_a have_v no_o right_n to_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o no_o right_n to_o baptism_n if_o the_o former_a reason_n of_o his_o be_v true_a against_o infant_n of_o believer_n the_o latter_a be_v true_a against_o elder_a person_n and_o thus_o this_o man_n at_o once_o have_v grant_v by_o his_o not_o give_v

because_o some_o of_o they_o prove_v wicked_a and_o therefore_o he_o must_v never_o baptise_v any_o hereafter_o until_o he_o can_v enter_v into_o god_n secret_a decree_n to_o know_v who_o only_o be_v the_o elect_n that_o shall_v never_o fall_v total_o away_o after_o baptize_v and_o thus_o the_o wicked_a man_n be_v snare_v in_o the_o work_n of_o his_o own_o hand_n selah_n that_o be_v o_o mind_n this_o well_o this_o may_v serve_v for_o a_o sufficient_a answer_n to_o his_o whole_a book_n until_o he_o by_o acknowledge_v the_o truth_n which_o i_o have_v assert_v deliver_v himself_o out_o of_o
