disciple_n by_o instruction_n and_o believe_v do_v in_o so_o do_v exclude_v all_o that_o can_v be_v teach_v and_o believe_v i_o answer_v in_o this_o commission_n christ_n have_v a_o more_o peculiar_a regard_n to_o the_o person_n to_o who_o the_o apostle_n be_v first_o and_o more_o immediate_o send_v who_o be_v indeed_o man_n and_o woman_n and_o therefore_o he_o mention_n such_o qualification_n antecedent_n to_o baptism_n as_o in_o reason_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n be_v indispensable_o necessary_a consider_v the_o state_n of_o the_o world_n at_o that_o time_n man_n be_v almost_o universal_o revolt_v into_o idolatry_n ignorance_n superstition_n profaneness_n and_o other_o great_a iniquity_n and_o with_o these_o qualification_n it_o be_v not_o fit_a they_o shall_v be_v admit_v into_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n these_o be_v therefore_o first_o to_o be_v convert_v and_o reclaim_v and_o then_o baptise_a and_o this_o be_v the_o great_a work_n to_o which_o the_o apostle_n be_v here_o commissioned_n now_o if_o from_o hence_o you_o argue_v that_o none_o ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v but_o those_o only_o who_o be_v thus_o teach_v and_o make_v disciple_n by_o actual_a belief_n i_o must_v beg_v leave_n to_o ask_v how_o you_o reconcile_v your_o belief_n of_o infant_n salvation_n with_o these_o text_n for_o they_o as_o much_o exclude_v infant_n from_o salvation_n as_o from_o baptism_n i_o do_v not_o ask_v how_o infant_n shall_v be_v save_v for_o in_o answer_n to_o that_o you_o will_v say_v secret_a thing_n belong_v to_o god_n but_o i_o ask_v how_o you_o who_o do_v believe_v and_o confess_v that_o infant_n may_v and_o shall_v be_v save_v do_v reconcile_v that_o opinion_n with_o these_o text_n and_o particular_o with_o that_o of_o st._n mark_n which_o do_v by_o the_o same_o consequence_n prove_v that_o infant_n can_v be_v save_v as_o that_o infant_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v for_o observe_v the_o argument_n christ_n say_v matt._n 28._o 19_o go_v make_v disciple_n of_o all_o nation_n and_o baptize_v they_o and_o mark_v 16._o 15_o 16._o preach_v the_o gospel_n to_o every_o creature_n he_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v baptize_v shall_v be_v save_v and_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v from_o whence_o you_o argue_v thus_o none_o be_v to_o be_v baptize_v but_o those_o who_o be_v first_o make_v disciple_n by_o believe_v but_o infant_n be_v not_o capable_a of_o believe_v therefore_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v baptise_a now_o in_o the_o very_a same_o manner_n one_o may_v argue_v thus_o that_o infant_n shall_v not_o be_v save_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v infant_n be_v not_o capable_a of_o believe_v ergo_fw-la infant_n must_v all_o be_v damn_v this_o be_v just_a the_o same_o way_n of_o argue_v without_o any_o difference_n at_o all_o how_o will_v you_o answer_v this_o will_v you_o set_v up_o for_o this_o piece_v of_o cruelty_n that_o all_o infant_n be_v damn_v if_o not_o you_o must_v say_v here_o as_o we_o do_v concern_v baptism_n that_o these_o text_n be_v improper_o and_o impertinent_o allege_v in_o the_o case_n of_o infant_n because_o they_o be_v never_o intend_v to_o extend_v to_o they_o otherwise_o they_o will_v as_o certain_o conclude_v against_o the_o salvation_n of_o infant_n as_o against_o the_o baptism_n of_o they_o in_o that_o faith_n and_o repentance_n be_v as_o necessary_a to_o the_o one_o as_o to_o the_o other_o the_o matter_n then_o in_o short_a be_v this_o man_n and_o woman_n be_v first_o of_o all_o to_o be_v make_v disciple_n by_o a_o save_v faith_n the_o case_n of_o child_n be_v a_o distinct_a case_n to_o be_v consider_v afterward_o when_o their_o parent_n have_v be_v first_o convert_v and_o though_o believe_v be_v necessary_a in_o the_o parent_n to_o be_v before_o their_o baptism_n yet_o this_o do_v not_o prove_v that_o their_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v exclude_v from_o the_o sacrament_n because_o they_o can_v not_o actual_o believe_v but_o you_o will_v reply_v be_v not_o faith_n then_o necessary_o require_v of_o person_n to_o be_v baptize_v i_o answer_v where_o the_o apostle_n find_v infidelity_n and_o iniquity_n they_o be_v necessary_o to_o preach_v faith_n and_o repentance_n before_o they_o baptize_v but_o the_o scripture_n intimate_v that_o the_o innocence_n of_o harmless_a babe_n who_o original_a gild_n be_v do_v away_o by_o christ_n and_o who_o never_o offend_v he_o by_o any_o actual_a transgression_n be_v as_o please_v to_o god_n and_o as_o agreeable_a a_o qualification_n for_o the_o admission_n into_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o mercy_n and_o seal_v that_o covenant_n by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n as_o either_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o actual_a believer_n or_o the_o repentance_n of_o the_o penitent_a christ_n have_v say_v of_o we_o all_o that_o unless_o we_o become_v as_o little_a child_n mat._n 18._o 3._o that_o be_v for_o their_o lovely_a innocence_n we_o shall_v in_o no_o wise_n enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n i_o do_v not_o argue_v whether_o he_o speak_v this_o with_o a_o particular_a respect_n to_o the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n or_o no._n i_o urge_v not_o that_o but_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o qualification_n that_o recommend_v we_o to_o god_n favour_n and_o mercy_n and_o christ_n do_v here_o declare_v that_o their_o innocence_n be_v as_o grateful_a to_o he_o as_o any_o man_n faith_n and_o repentance_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v exclude_v the_o truth_n of_o what_o i_o now_o maintain_v i_o think_v be_v sufficient_o prove_v from_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o this_o sacrament_n baptism_n as_o i_o understand_v it_o be_v a_o seal_n for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o that_o covenant_n which_o god_n have_v make_v with_o mankind_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o covenant_n be_v on_o god_n part_n a_o free_a promise_n and_o engagement_n to_o grant_v mercy_n and_o salvation_n through_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n to_o all_o who_o actual_a sin_n do_v not_o render_v they_o incapable_a of_o and_o exclude_v they_o from_o it_o from_o whence_o i_o argue_v thus_o those_o that_o be_v not_o in_o a_o state_n of_o actual_a sin_n be_v capable_a of_o be_v admit_v into_o this_o covenant_n and_o thereby_o entitle_v to_o the_o promise_n for_o nothing_o but_o sin_n make_v we_o at_o first_o obnoxious_a to_o death_n and_o nothing_o but_o the_o gild_n of_o sin_n can_v exclude_v we_o from_o eternal_a life_n and_o those_o that_o be_v capable_a of_o be_v admit_v into_o the_o covenant_n and_o entitle_v to_o the_o promise_n be_v capable_a of_o that_o sacrament_n which_o be_v the_o seal_n of_o it_o this_o i_o think_v be_v a_o good_a conclusion_n infant_n therefore_o though_o by_o nature_n bear_v in_o sin_n yet_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n i_o do_v say_v by_o baptism_n but_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v capable_a of_o admission_n into_o the_o covenant_n by_o baptism_n which_o be_v the_o seal_n of_o it_o though_o they_o do_v not_o actual_o believe_v for_o this_o reason_n it_o be_v that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n have_v so_o judicious_o declare_v that_o infant_n baptize_v and_o die_v before_o they_o commit_v any_o actual_a transgression_n be_v undoubted_o save_v for_o die_v in_o a_o state_n of_o reconciliation_n and_o have_v the_o promise_v of_o god_n confirm_v by_o this_o seal_n they_o be_v safe_a have_v not_o by_o any_o actual_a violation_n of_o the_o covenant_n forfeit_v the_o claim_n this_o can_v but_o think_v a_o reasonable_a way_n of_o argue_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o sacrament_n and_o covenant_n and_o if_o it_o be_v these_o text_n do_v not_o exclude_v infant_n either_o direct_o or_o by_o consequence_n and_o methinks_v it_o savour_v of_o rashness_n and_o inconsideration_n to_o think_v that_o because_o god_n have_v require_v faith_n and_o repentance_n of_o man_n in_o a_o state_n of_o sin_n and_o under_o the_o power_n of_o abominable_a lust_n and_o consequent_o altogether_o unfit_a to_o be_v admit_v into_o covenant_n till_o they_o abjure_v their_o idolatry_n and_o abandon_v their_o vice_n that_o therefore_o innocent_a babe_n who_o never_o offend_v shall_v not_o be_v admit_v through_o want_n of_o the_o same_o qualification_n the_o different_a circumstance_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o person_n be_v a_o sufficient_a proof_n that_o the_o same_o qualification_n be_v not_o necessary_o require_v in_o both_o but_o i_o foresee_v some_o objection_n which_o i_o will_v brief_o consider_v and_o then_o proceed_v 1._o it_o be_v plead_v that_o capacity_n give_v no_o right_a you_o may_v have_v a_o mapacity_n to_o be_v a_o justice_n of_o peace_n but_o must_v have_v a_o commission_n before_o you_o ought_v to_o act_v as_o such_o and_o though_o the_o innocence_n of_o babe_n be_v thus_o acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o he_o do_v for_o christ_n sake_n save_v they_o yet_o this_o will_v not_o at_o
