A31094	A briefe answer to A discourse, lately written by one P.B., to prove baptisme under the defection of Antichrist, to be the ordinance of Iesus Christ, and the baptizing of infants to be agreeable to the word of God wherein is declared ... that true baptisme and a false church are inconsistent, and cannot stand together : and also maintained, that the baptizing of infants hath no authority from the Scriptures / by R. Barrow.	Barrow, Robert, d. 1697.	1642 (1642)	Wing B967; ESTC R12474	18,380	26

the_o baptise_n of_o the_o one_o than_o it_o do_v for_o the_o baptise_n of_o the_o other_o but_o i_o intend_v brevity_n and_o therefore_o for_o further_a answer_n in_o this_o point_n i_o refer_v he_o to_o a._n r._n his_o book_n late_o print_v wherein_o the_o same_o be_v handle_v at_o large_a these_o be_v the_o best_a reason_n that_o p._n b._n can_v show_v to_o prove_v the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n to_o be_v according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o in_o regard_n they_o can_v give_v satisfaction_n to_o some_o but_o they_o still_o notwithstanding_o do_v stick_n at_o the_o mater_fw-la as_o they_o well_o may_v and_o desire_v a_o precept_n or_o a_o example_n to_o warrant_v the_o same_o and_o therefore_o he_o promise_v to_o show_v both_o page_n 29._o but_o first_o he_o desire_v that_o we_o will_v give_v he_o a_o example_n of_o a_o unbaptised_a person_n his_o baptise_n of_o other_o and_o of_o the_o refuse_n of_o infant_n from_o be_v of_o the_o church_n both_o which_o be_v before_o sufficient_o declare_v we_o will_v now_o take_v notice_n how_o he_o perform_v his_o promise_n first_o he_o say_v there_o be_v example_n of_o baptise_v of_o household_n as_o the_o jailer_n and_o lydias_n act_n 16._o and_o the_o house_n of_o stephanus_n and_o questionless_a divers_a other_o pag._n 29._o but_o i_o demand_v a_o example_n for_o the_o baptise_n of_o infant_n and_o not_o of_o baptise_v household_n of_o believer_n such_o as_o the_o jailor_n act._n 16.34_o and_o stephanus_n 1_o cor._n 16.16_o and_o crispus_n act_n 18.8_o and_o questionless_a divers_a other_o this_o be_v a_o bad_a example_n for_o a_o example_n he_o will_v have_v it_o call_v though_o it_o be_v none_o at_o all_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n which_o must_v be_v thus_o declare_v household_n be_v baptise_v but_o in_o some_o household_n there_o be_v infant_n therefore_o infan●s_n have_v be_v baptise_v this_o be_v as_o plain_a a_o example_n to_o prove_v the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n as_o this_o that_o follow_v be_v to_o prove_v the_o baptise_n of_o notorious_a drunkard_n swearer_n thief_n murderer_n etc._n etc._n whole_a household_n have_v be_v baptise_v but_o in_o some_o house_n there_o be_v notorious_a drunkard_n swearer_n thief_n murderer_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o the_o apostle_n baptise_v such_o and_o such_o may_v be_v baptise_v who_o see_v not_o your_o folly_n another_o example_n as_o plain_a as_o this_o follow_v the_o whole_a church_n of_o coloss_n be_v bury_v with_o christ_n in_o baptism_n but_o child_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o church_n therefore_o infant_n be_v baptise_v col._n 3.20.21_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o coloss_n be_v bury_v with_o christ_n in_o baptism_n and_o that_o there_o be_v child_n in_o that_o church_n to_o who_o the_o apostle_n write_v and_o exhort_v to_o obey_v their_o parent_n in_o all_o thing_n col._n 3.20_o but_o our_o question_n be_v about_o infant_n and_o not_o child_n in_o general_a some_o whereof_o be_v grow_v to_o year_n of_o understanding_n as_o these_o be_v to_o who_o the_o apostle_n write_v for_o sure_a p._n b._n will_v not_o say_v he_o write_v to_o infant_n which_o can_v not_o understand_v what_o he_o say_v in_o gen._n 43.14_o when_o jacob_n send_v his_o son_n benjamine_n into_o egypt_n he_o use_v these_o word_n concerning_o he_o and_o joseph_n if_o i_o be_o bereave_v of_o my_o child_n i_o be_o bereave_v now_o by_o his_o reason_n benjamine_n who_o be_v about_o seventeen_o year_n old_a and_o joseph_n who_o be_v about_o thirty_o year_n of_o age_n shall_v both_o of_o they_o be_v infant_n because_o their_o father_n call_v they_o child_n these_o example_n will_v yield_v as_o little_a satisfaction_n to_o any_o that_o question_v the_o baptise_n of_o infant_n as_o his_o reason_n before_o answer_v but_o although_o these_o example_n fail_v yet_o page_n 31._o he_o say_v there_o be_v a_o plain_a command_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o the_o baptise_n of_o infant_n
