A90658	A reply to a confutation of some grounds for infants baptisme: as also, concerning the form of a church, put forth against mee by one Thomas Lamb. Hereunto is added, a discourse of the verity and validity of infants baptisme, wherein I endeavour to clear it in it self: as also in the ministery administrating it, and the manner of administration, by sprinkling, and not dipping; with sundry other particulars handled herein. / By George Philips of Watertown in New England.	Phillips, George, 1593-1644.	1645 (1645)	Wing P2026; Thomason E287_4; ESTC R200088	141,673	168

administer_a baptism_n i_o come_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o consider_v the_o administration_n of_o baptism_n in_o england_n and_o the_o authority_n by_o which_o baptism_n be_v there_o administer_v and_o i_o believe_v it_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v resolve_v that_o be_v do_v by_o a_o lawful_a power_n and_o just_a authority_n for_o though_o a_o officer_n of_o state_n do_v a_o thing_n by_o virtue_n of_o his_o office_n and_o according_a to_o law_n make_v the_o thing_n authentical_a and_o of_o force_n civil_o yet_o it_o will_v not_o follow_v that_o if_o any_o private_a man_n not_o in_o office_n shall_v do_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o the_o same_o form_n of_o word_n and_o every_o way_n else_o without_o any_o difference_n that_o such_o a_o act_n be_v legal_a and_o will_v be_v allow_v but_o rather_o it_o will_v expose_v the_o doer_n and_o for_o who_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v do_v to_o danger_n of_o just_a penalty_n so_o in_o this_o case_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o authority_n by_o which_o baptism_n be_v there_o administer_v be_v not_o lawful_a and_o of_o god_n i_o confess_v i_o can_v see_v how_o the_o thing_n itself_o can_v be_v in_o force_n and_o justifiable_a i_o add_v that_o all_o antichristian_a power_n and_o administration_n by_o it_o as_o antichristian_a can_v be_v lawful_a and_o be_v itself_o a_o idol_n and_o humane_a invention_n it_o can_v give_v
