the_o controversy_n about_o infant-baptism_n will_v natural_o cease_v and_o all_o man_n will_v see_v it_o the_o only_a safe_a way_n to_o refer_v baptism_n to_o the_o time_n wherein_o through_o

can_v enter_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o any_o christian_a i_o hope_v that_o god_n do_v create_v infant_n on_o purpose_n to_o damn_v they_o and_o to_o show_v they_o no_o mercy_n see_v he_o be_v very_o

cause_n of_o infant_n damnation_n 1._o they_o can_v damn_v themselves_o by_o sinful_a course_n and_o it_o be_v certain_a our_o gracious_a god_n will_v dam_o none_o who_o do_v not_o first_o destroy_v themselves_o by_o their_o wickedness_n this_o be_v evident_a by_o his_o unwillingness_n to_o destroy_v those_o who_o have_v destroy_v themselves_o hosea_n 13._o 9_o o_o israel_n thou_o have_v
