A10194 The perpetuitie of a regenerate mans estate VVherein it is manifestly proued by sundry arguments, reasons and authorities. That such as are once truly regenerated and ingrafted into Christ by a liuely faith, can neither finally nor totally fall from grace. It is also proued, that this hath beene the receiued and resolued doctrine, of all the ancient fathers, of all the Protestant churches and writers beyond the seas, and of the Church of England. All the principall arguments that are, or may be obiected against it, either from Scripture, or from reason, are here likewise cleared and answered. By William Prynne Gent: Lincolniensis.

water_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n but_o to_o be_v ingraft_v and_o unite_v unto_o christ_n by_o faith_n so_o that_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o place_n be_v no_o more_o but_o this_o those_o that_o

shall_v be_v the_o literal_a meaning_n of_o the_o word_n i_o prove_v it_o by_o two_o reason_n first_o from_o the_o very_a phrase_n which_o the_o apostle_n use_v for_o this_o phrase_n baptize_v into_o christ_n be_v use_v in_o no_o other_o text_n of_o scripture_n unless_o it_o bein_z rom._n 6._o 3._o where_o it_o signify_v not_o the_o outward_a sacrament_n and_o act_n of_o baptism_n as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o but_o only_o our_o true_a 〈◊〉_d and_o engraft_v into_o christ_n in_o all_o other_o text_n of_o scripture_n beside_o these_o two_o this_o phrase_n of_o baptise_v into_o christ_n be_v not_o use_v all_o that_o be_v say_v be_v but_o this_o they_o be_v baptize_v or_o baptize_v in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n or_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o that_o the_o very_a phrase_n itself_o do_v sufficient_o prove_v that_o to_o be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n be_v no_o more_o than_o to_o be_v incorporate_v and_o ingraft_v into_o he_o second_o this_o be_v evident_a by_o that_o restriction_n and_o limitation_n which_o paul_n use_v in_o both_o these_o place_n you_o know_v that_o he_o write_v his_o epistle_n to_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o galatia_n and_o rome_n and_o to_o all_o those_o that_o be_v baptize_v among_o they_o but_o not_o to_o any_o who_o be_v not_o baptize_v now_o paul_n do_v not_o say_v either_o in_o gal._n 3._o 27._o or_o rom._n 6._o 3._o that_o all_o that_o be_v baptize_v be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n or_o that_o all_o that_o be_v in_o those_o church_n have_v put_v on_o christ_n but_o so_o many_o of_o we_o as_o be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n be_v baptize_v into_o his_o death_n and_o as_o many_o of_o you_o as_o have_v be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n have_v put_v on_o christ_n so_o that_o this_o restriction_n and_o limitation_n of_o paul_n in_o both_o these_o place_n restrain_v this_o put_v on_o of_o christ_n to_o those_o only_a that_o be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n and_o not_o to_o all_o those_o to_o who_o he_o write_v or_o to_o all_o such_o as_o be_v baptize_v prove_v undeniablie_o that_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n and_o another_o thing_n to_o be_v baptize_v that_o all_o that_o be_v baptize_v be_v not_o baptize_v into_o christ_n and_o so_o not_o true_o regenerate_v and_o ingraft_v into_o christ_n by_o their_o very_a baptism_n but_o least_o this_o answer_n shall_v not_o satisfy_v unquiet_a spirit_n that_o i_o may_v stop_v up_o their_o mouth_n and_o leave_v they_o no_o evasion_n i_o answer_v second_o that_o those_o galatian_n to_o who_o paul_n write_v who_o have_v put_v on_o christ_n by_o their_o baptism_n they_o be_v man_n of_o ripe_a year_n and_o they_o do_v repent_v and_o believe_v christ_n jesus_n before_o they_o be_v baptize_v because_o they_o be_v but_o new_o convert_v from_o gentilism_n and_o idolatry_n unto_o the_o faith_n and_o therefore_o they_o have_v faith_n and_o repentance_n before_o they_o be_v baptize_v may_v put_v on_o christ_n by_o their_o baptism_n that_o be_v they_o may_v put_v he_o on_o in_o a_o great_a measure_n and_o yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o all_o infant_n that_o be_v baptize_v do_v likewise_o put_v on_o christ_n as_o well_o as_o they_o because_o they_o want_v that_o faith_n and_o repentance_n which_o those_o galatian_n have_v three_o i_o answer_v that_o these_o word_n of_o paul_n be_v only_o restrain_v to_o such_o of_o the_o galatian_n as_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o the_o true_a elect_a seed_n of_o faithful_a abraham_n as_o be_v evident_a by_o ver_fw-la 26._o 29._o they_o be_v not_o speak_v indefinite_o to_o all_o the_o galatian_n that_o be_v baptize_v &_o admit_v into_o the_o church_n therefore_o all_o that_o these_o word_n prove_v be_v only_o this_o that_o the_o elect_a and_o faithful_a child_n of_o god_n do_v put_v on_o christ_n in_o thei●…_n baptism_n and_o not_o that_o all_o wicked_a reprobate_a and_o unregenerate_a man_n or_o all_o that_o be_v baptize_v do_v so_o to_o four_o if_o you_o will_v take_v this_o baptise_v into_o christ_n for_o the_o mere_a outward_a sacrament_n and_o act_n of_o baptism_n i_o answer_v then_o that_o this_o put_v on_o of_o christ_n here_o mention_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o put_n on_o of_o the_o name_n doctrine_n and_o procession_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o a_o put_n on_o of_o the_o ●…mage_n the_o nature_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o christ._n so_o that_o the_o apostle_n word_n and_o meaning_n be_v in_o effect_n and_o substance_n no_o more_o than_o this_o as_o many_o of_o you_o as_o be_v baptize_v have_v put_v on_o the_o name_n and_o profession_n of_o jesus_n christ_n you_o have_v vow_v to_o forsake_v all_o other_o thing_n and_o doctrine_n

put_v on_o the_o name_n and_o profession_n of_o jesus_n christ_n see_v you_o have_v swear_v allegiance_n unto_o he_o and_o have_v take_v he_o for_o your_o priest_n your_o prophet_n and_o your_o king_n be_v you_o now_o direct_v rule_v and_o govern_v by_o that_o word_n and_o gospel_n which_o he_o have_v deliver_v and_o commend_v to_o you_o and_o not_o by_o the_o law_n which_o be_v only_o a_o

justification_n righteousness_n and_o happiness_n not_o from_o moses_n or_o the_o law_n but_o from_o jesus_n christ_n alone_o who_o have_v redeem_v and_o free_v you_o from_o the_o law_n if_o you_o

and_o as_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o regeneration_n and_o put_v on_o of_o christ._n i_o answer_v that_o these_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o warrant_v it_o for_o first_o the_o apostle_n say_v not_o that_o as_o many_o as_o have_v be_v baptize_v have_v put_v on_o christ_n by_o their_o baptism_n all_o he_o say_v be_v only_a this_o that_o as_o many_o of_o they_o as_o have_v be_v

second_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o put_v on_o christ_n not_o by_o their_o baptism_n but_o by_o their_o faith_n for_o he_o certify_v in_o the_o former_a verse_n you_o be_v all_o the_o
