than_o the_o word_n of_o god_n master_n john_n welsch_n his_o reply_n first_o you_o begin_v at_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n whereof_o you_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v so_o necessary_a that_o infant_n can_v come_v to_o heaven_n without_o the_o same_o as_o for_o baptism_n we_o grant_v that_o it_o be_v a_o most_o effectual_a seal_n and_o pledge_v of_o our_o engraft_v in_o

it_o because_o it_o be_v the_o neglect_n and_o contempt_n of_o the_o covenant_n itself_o and_o of_o christ_n jesus_n the_o foundation_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v damnable_a but_o that_o it_o be_v so_o absolute_o necessary_a to_o infant_n that_o without_o it_o they_o can_v come_v to_o heaven_n to_o wit_n these_o who_o he_o have_v predestinat_a it_o be_v neither_o neglect_v nor_o contemn_v but_o death_n prevent_v the_o receive_n of_o it_o that_o we_o allutter_o deny_v as_o impious_a ungodly_a and_o cruel_a for_o first_o i_o say_v there_o be_v none_o that_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o who_o have_v god_n to_o be_v their_o god_n and_o be_v holy_a that_o can_v perish_v this_o you_o can_v deny_v but_o the_o child_n of_o the_o faithful_a who_o be_v of_o his_o secret_a election_n be_v such_o before_o they_o be_v baptize_v and_o this_o i_o prove_v the_o lord_n promise_v to_o abraham_n i_o will_v be_v thy_o god_n and_o the_o god_n of_o thy_o seed_n gen._n 17.17_o and_o this_o peter_n also_o testify_v the_o promise_n say_v he_o be_v make_v to_o you_o and_o to_o your_o child_n act_n 2.39_o and_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o the_o child_n of_o the_o faithful_a be_v holy_a 1._o cor._n 7.14_o therefore_o the_o child_n of_o the_o faithful_a who_o be_v of_o god_n secret_a election_n suppose_v they_o die_v without_o baptism_n do_v not_o perish_v secondlie_o if_o baptism_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n than_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v bind_v to_o the_o sacrament_n this_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o your_o master_n of_o sentence_n say_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o the_o sacrament_n and_o it_o be_v impious_a so_o to_o think_v that_o god_n free_a grace_n and_o salvation_n be_v bind_v to_o the_o instrument_n thirdlie_o if_o circumcision_n be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n than_o baptism_n be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a now_o because_o circumcision_n be_v

for_o lombardus_fw-la be_v rebuke_v by_o the_o doctor_n of_o paris_n because_o he_o so_o think_v and_o david_n doubt_v not_o to_o say_v of_o his_o child_n who_o die_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o so_o before_o he_o be_v circumcise_v i_o shall_v go_v to_o he_o etc._n etc._n and_o so_o he_o pronounce_v that_o he_o be_v save_v and_o all_o the_o time_n that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n almost_o 40_o year_n circumcision_n be_v neglect_v which_o plain_o show_v that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o absolute_o necessary_a that_o salvation_n can_v not_o be_v obtain_v without_o it_o therefore_o baptism_n be_v not_o so_o absolute_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n as_o you_o suppose_v for_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v of_o no_o less_o force_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n than_o it_o be_v in_o the_o old_a fourthlie_o we_o read_v of_o sundry_a that_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n before_o they_o be_v baptize_v and_o see_v the_o holy_a ghost_n where_o he_o be_v regenerat_o to_o eternal_a

of_o all_o these_o parent_n who_o child_n have_v be_v prevent_v by_o death_n before_o they_o can_v be_v offer_v to_o be_v baptize_v if_o they_o believe_v your_o doctrine_n how_o often_o will_v this_o

by_o god_n providence_n or_o the_o parent_n neglect_v or_o contemn_v the_o same_o or_o persecution_n or_o one_o impediment_n or_o other_o hinder_v wherefore_o be_v you_o so_o cruel_a to_o judge_v they_o to_o be_v damn_v for_o that_o whereof_o themselves_o be_v causeless_a and_o last_o of_o all_o if_o you_o be_v acquaint_v in_o the_o history_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o the_o first_o age_n you_o will_v find_v many_o that_o delay_v to_o be_v baptize_v until_o their_o latter_a age_n which_o they_o will_v never_o have_v do_v if_o they_o have_v think_v it_o simpliciter_fw-la necessary_a to_o salvation_n as_o you_o do_v and_o ambrose_n doubt_v not_o to_o say_v that_o valentinian_n want_v not_o the_o grace_n of_o baptism_n suppose_v he_o want_v baptism_n itself_o the_o which_o he_o will_v never_o have_v say_v if_o he_o have_v think_v it_o absolute_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n and_o bernard_n say_v i_o can_v altogether_o despair_v of_o the_o salvation_n of_o they_o who_o want_v baptism_n not_o through_o contempt_n but_o only_o through_o impossibility_n to_o get_v it_o and_o in_o that_o same_o place_n he_o say_v so_o also_o if_o our_o saviour_n christ_n for_o this_o cause_n when_o he_o have_v say_v he_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v baptize_v shall_v be_v save_v do_v
here_o that_o he_o offer_v up_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o supper_n in_o a_o propiciatory_a sacrifice_n for_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a therefore_o he_o command_v not_o this_o sacrifice_n of_o your_o mass_n to_o be_v do_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o whereas_o you_o restrict_n this_o commandment_n do_v this_o only_o to_o

only_o which_o you_o do_v but_o common_a with_o they_o to_o the_o action_n of_o the_o people_n now_o to_o your_o conclusion_n see_v say_v you_o your_o priest_n do_v the_o same_o in_o this_o

will_v grant_v you_o it_o but_o you_o do_v not_o the_o same_o which_o our_o saviour_n do_v therefore_o your_o religion_n in_o this_o be_v not_o institute_v by_o jesus_n christ_n the_o which_o i_o
