rite_n and_o ceremony_n thing_n of_o no_o value_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n forget_v this_o strive_n for_o the_o fundamental_a truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n we_o be_v to_o strive_v to_o contend_v for_o to_o be_v tenacious_a of_o our_o baptism_n lay_v a_o engagement_n upon_o we_o as_o to_o this_o for_o we_o be_v not_o baptize_v into_o moses_n but_o into_o christ_n that_o be_v into_o the_o public_a and_o steady_a profession_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o whosoever_o apostatize_v from_o that_o profession_n renounce_v his_o baptism_n forget_v both_o his_o own_o dedication_n in_o it_o and_o his_o own_o covenant_n and_o obligation_n by_o it_o baptise_a person_n have_v set_v to_o their_o seal_n that_o god_n be_v true_a and_o the_o doctrine_n of_o his_o gospel_n be_v true_a and_o that_o they_o will_v own_v it_o and_o persevere_v in_o it_o 2._o hence_o it_o appear_v that_o all_o baptize_v person_n be_v by_o their_o baptism_n oblige_v to_o the_o acceptation_n of_o christ_n as_o their_o spiritual_a husband_n i_o have_v say_v the_o apostle_n espouse_v you_o to_o one_o husband_n that_o one_o husband_n be_v christ_n the_o contract_n be_v make_v in_o baptism_n the_o espousal_n be_v upon_o the_o admission_n of_o the_o soul_n into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o church_n upon_o the_o visible_a evidence_n of_o his_o faith_n and_o repentance_n you_o know_v sometime_o there_o be_v contract_n betwixt_o person_n that_o be_v not_o of_o age_n for_o the_o consummation_n of_o marriage_n the_o contract_n be_v in_o

present_a the_o difference_n be_v in_o those_o word_n i_o will_v take_v which_o be_v the_o word_n of_o a_o contract_n and_o i_o do_v take_v which_o be_v the_o word_n use_v in_o a_o actual_a marriage_n every_o person_n in_o baptism_n be_v contract_v to_o christ_n every_o person_n be_v not_o of_o age_n for_o a_o actual_a marriage_n to_o which_o repentance_n and_o knowledge_n be_v precedaneous_a but_o every_o baptise_a infant_n say_v i_o will_v take_v christ_n for_o my_o wed_a husband_n and_o lord_n the_o act_n in_o infant-baptism_n be_v indeed_o rather_o the_o act_n of_o the_o parent_n than_o the_o child_n which_o be_v not_o yet_o capable_a of_o a_o rational_a act_n but_o be_v it_o so_o the_o parent_n have_v such_o a_o right_a in_o the_o child_n that_o it_o stand_v bind_v to_o abide_v by_o the_o act_n of_o its_o natural_a guardian_n unless_o the_o child_n grow_v up_o can_v show_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n to_o the_o contrary_n it_o be_v thus_o adjudge_v as_o to_o all_o legal_a act_n what_o the_o legal_a guardian_n do_v the_o infant_n and_o person_n in_o nonage_n do_v it_o hold_v much_o more_o in_o thing_n spiritual_a where_o there_o be_v a_o precedaneous_a obligation_n to_o any_o humane_a law_n upon_o every_o child_n to_o confirm_v and_o justify_v its_o parent_n act_v for_o every_o soul_n be_v bind_v to_o this_o and_o the_o parent_n herein_o engage_v the_o child_n no_o further_o than_o be_v its_o precedaneous_a duty_n in_o obedience_n to_o god_n so_o as_o the_o parent_n obligation_n that_o the_o child_n shall_v accept_v of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o its_o saviour_n and_o perform_v what_o god_n require_v of_o it_o in_o order_n to_o its_o salvation_n be_v real_o a_o obligation_n upon_o the_o child_n to_o do_v what_o its_o spiritual_a guardian_n have_v solemn_o oblige_v for_o it_o so_o as_o every_o baptize_v person_n stand_v bind_v to_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o to_o live_v a_o holy_a life_n 3._o it_o follow_v from_o hence_o that_o there_o be_v a_o duty_n incumbent_n upon_o all_o good_a christian_n even_o with_o their_o blood_n to_o maintain_v and_o defend_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n i_o will_v be_v right_o understand_v not_o that_o all_o man_n be_v engage_v in_o such_o case_n to_o take_v up_o arm_n in_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o great_a truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o require_v a_o lawful_a authority_n to_o call_v
