proposition_n or_o allege_a text._n accuser_n if_o child_n shall_v be_v exclude_v from_o the_o promise_n arg._n 2_o this_o can_v not_o have_v comfort_v the_o patent_n but_o have_v sadn_v they_o that_o their_o child_n shall_v be_v the_o same_o with_o heathen_n but_o here_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o text_n be_v urge_v by_o the_o apostle_n for_o consolation_n answer_n this_o argument_n suppose_v our_o denial_n of_o the_o promise_n to_o the_o child_n wherein_o the_o man_n run_v after_o his_o own_o mistake_n denial_n of_o baptism_n be_v no_o exclusion_n from_o the_o promise_n as_o to_o the_o odious_a comparison_n of_o child_n of_o believer_n to_o heathen_n false_o charge_v on_o we_o we_o reject_v heathen_n differ_v as_o much_o from_o the_o child_n of_o believer_n in_o our_o account_n as_o open_a apostate_n do_v from_o hopeful_a expectant_n of_o the_o church_n as_o to_o the_o point_n of_o consolation_n our_o denial_n of_o the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n withdraw_v from_o the_o parent_n no_o real_a ground_n of_o consolation_n found_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o apply_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o this_o scripture_n but_o we_o say_v that_o the_o application_n thereof_o to_o particular_a person_n if_o it_o be_v not_o according_a to_o scripture-●ule_a will_v prove_v a_o groundless_a fiction_n and_o no_o consolation_n and_o as_o to_o the_o infant_n of_o believer_n we_o far_o say_v that_o beside_o our_o assurance_n that_o the_o grace_n of_o election_n because_o it_o be_v bestow_v without_o respect_n of_o person_n do_v reach_v infant_n as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o it_o be_v likely_a more_o frequent_o the_o infant_n of_o the_o godly_a than_o other_o that_o the_o infant_n of_o believer_n have_v also_o a_o nearness_n not_o only_o to_o the_o promise_n but_o also_o to_o the_o fruition_n of_o the_o grace_n promise_v by_o reason_n of_o many_o high_a advantage_n which_o other_o enjoy_v not_o and_o among_o the_o rest_n that_o the_o godly_a to_o who_o they_o stand_v relate_v and_o be_v commit_v have_v promise_n of_o be_v hear_v of_o god_n in_o their_o faithful_a prayer_n even_o to_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n job_n 1.5_o james_n 5.15_o 16._o 1_o john_n 5.16_o and_o that_o therefore_o there_o be_v great_a ground_n give_v to_o such_o parent_n of_o a_o holy_a hope_n that_o god_n do_v hear_v their_o prayer_n for_o the_o salvation_n of_o their_o infant_n see_v they_o be_v not_o under_o that_o sin_n unto_o death_n that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v pray_v for_o and_o we_o can_v never_o find_v our_o sober_a opposite_n to_o ascribe_v a_o great_a ground_n for_o a_o believer_n to_o conclude_v the_o salvation_n of_o his_o infant_n if_o he_o die_v after_o he_o be_v baptize_v then_o if_o he_o do_v before_o beside_o which_o great_a advantage_n there_o be_v also_o reserve_v to_o the_o child_n the_o same_o tender_n of_o grace_n for_o their_o full_a investure_n into_o the_o real_a fruition_n of_o the_o promise_n we_o remain_v yet_o to_o be_v inform_v what_o discouragement_n be_v put_v upon_o the_o parent_n labour_v under_o the_o sense_n of_o guilt_n to_o receive_v a_o dectrine_n thus_o tender_v bring_v with_o it_o the_o same_o grace_n upon_o the_o like_a term_n to_o be_v bestow_v upon_o his_o posterity_n together_o with_o these_o high_a advantage_n premise_v we_o also_o say_v whatever_o benefit_n may_v be_v just_o say_v to_o accrue_v to_o the_o infant_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o promise_n through_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o parent_n all_o that_o will_v be_v more_o effectual_o and_o certain_o make_v out_o to_o the_o comfort_n of_o they_o both_o by_o baptism_n upon_o faith_n then_o can_v be_v by_o baptisine_n in_o infancy_n by_o how_o much_o baptism_n upon_o faith_n more_o certain_o declare_v the_o parent_n by_o who_o the_o benefit_n

to_o submit_v to_o christ_n under_o this_o administration_n but_o will_v have_v hinder_v they_o that_o their_o child_n shall_v be_v exclude_v from_o the_o promise_n who_o stand_v in_o it_o two_o

member_n of_o the_o church_n for_o two_o thousand_o year_n in_o the_o administration_n this_o administration_n exclude_v they_o answ_n they_o stand_v exclude_v altogether_o as_o much_o above_o two_o thousand_o year_n before_o circumcision_n as_o they_o do_v now_o so_o that_o a_o ordinance_n for_o their_o church-membership_a be_v not_o so_o from_o the_o beginning_n but_o come_v in_o by_o special_a
