of_o believe_a parent_n be_v not_o necessary_o internal_a and_o real_a holiness_n so_o that_o it_o be_v external_a and_o faederall_a it_o suffice_v to_o make_v they_o member_n of_o the_o visible_a

outward_o in_o covenant_n if_o their_o parent_n be_v outward_o in_o covenant_n what_o be_v inward_o wrought_v it_o be_v not_o for_o man_n to_o judge_v now_o let_v we_o see_v what_o a._n r._n object_v to_o this_o place_n of_o scripture_n r._n a._n r._n for_o answer_v you_o lay_v down_o some_o ground_n as_o first_o there_o be_v but_o one_o covenant_n now_o on_o foot_n which_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o salvation_n heb._n 7.22_o &_o 8.13_o &_o 10.9_o answ_n we_o grant_v you_o this_o and_o more_o too_o namely_o that_o never_o since_o adam_n fall_n be_v there_o any_o covenant_n proper_o so_o call_v make_v with_o mankind_n by_o god_n but_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o salvation_n where_o read_v you_o of_o any_o covenant_n of_o work_n and_o damnation_n second_o you_o say_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o manner_n of_o enter_v and_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n joh._n 3.3.5.6_o heb._n 10.19_o 20_o 21_o 22._o answ_n true_o if_o you_o mean_v be_v in_o that_o covenant_n inward_o spiritual_o and_o save_o and_o the_o same_o ever_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o be_v and_o enter_v into_o covenant_n since_o adam_n fall_n viz._n by_o jesus_n christ_n or_o regeneration_n three_o you_o say_v there_o be_v but_o one_o holiness_n now_o acceptable_a unto_o god_n which_o be_v inward_a spiritual_a and_o in_o truth_n without_o which_o no_o outward_a obedience_n or_o conformity_n to_o any_o worship_n be_v warrantable_a or_o acceptable_a joh._n 4.23_o 24._o heb._n 11.6_o answ_n if_o you_o understand_v it_o of_o such_o warrantablenesse_n as_o find_v acceptation_n with_o god_n in_o the_o party_n perform_v it_o as_o your_o latter_a seem_v to_o express_v the_o former_a this_o be_v not_o question_v nor_o deny_v by_o any_o that_o i_o know_v but_o why_o do_v you_o limit_v your_o proposition_n by_o the_o particle_n now_o as_o if_o though_o now_o outward_a obedience_n and_o conformity_n to_o any_o ordinance_n be_v not_o acceptable_a without_o inward_a holiness_n yet_o it_o sometime_o have_v be_v which_o be_v utter_o untrue_a as_o may_v appear_v gen._n 4._o psal_n 50._o and_o 51._o esa_n 1._o jer._n 6._o and_o almost_o every_o where_n now_o you_o come_v direct_o to_o answer_v hence_o say_v you_o it_o follow_v that_o if_o believer_n child_n be_v in_o covenant_n and_o have_v true_a holiness_n than_o they_o be_v all_o save_v old_a and_o young_a but_o all_o believer_n child_n be_v not_o save_v no_o not_o of_o faithful_a abraham_n himself_o esa_n 10.21_o with_o rom._n 9.27_o therefore_o the_o child_n of_o believer_n be_v not_o in_o the_o covenant_n now_o on_o foot_n nor_o aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v answ_n you_o may_v as_o well_o reason_n thus_o if_o simon_n magus_n ananias_n and_o sapphira_n with_o many_o other_o hypocrite_n in_o the_o primitive_a church_n who_o yet_o the_o apostle_n baptize_v and_o call_v saint_n and_o faithful_a be_v in_o the_o covenant_n and_o have_v this_o true_a holiness_n or_o be_v true_o saint_n then_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v all_o save_v but_o they_o be_v not_o all_o save_v therefore_o they_o be_v no_o believer_n or_o saint_n nor_o in_o the_o covenant_n now_o on_o foot_n and_o therefore_o shall_v not_o have_v be_v baptize_v the_o apostle_n belike_o want_v you_o to_o direct_v and_o control_v they_o and_o show_v who_o they_o shall_v have_v baptize_v and_o who_o not_o second_o i_o answer_v direct_o though_o true_a holiness_n be_v necessary_a for_o spiritual_a and_o internal_a be_v in_o covenant_n and_o for_o eternal_a salvation_n yet_o the_o outward_a holiness_n of_o the_o party_n consist_v in_o external_a be_v in_o covenant_n be_v sufficient_a to_o warrant_v a_o minister_n to_o baptize_v otherwise_o he_o shall_v never_o have_v warrant_n to_o baptize_v for_o none_o know_v the_o heart_n so_o as_o to_o judge_v of_o inward_a holiness_n infallible_o but_o god_n you_o add_v that_o we_o object_n notwithstanding_o all_o this_o that_o you_o have_v say_v why_o may_v not_o infant_n be_v in_o the_o covenant_n outward_o have_v faederall_a holiness_n and_o in_o that_o sense_n be_v holy_a and_o so_o to_o be_v admit_v to_o the_o outward_a ordinance_n of_o baptism_n as_o infant_n be_v unto_o circumcision_n in_o time_n of_o the_o law_n and_o in_o the_o state_n of_o the_o jew_n to_o this_o you_o answer_v that_o the_o state_n or_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v under_o the_o old_a covenant_n and_o law_n and_o stand_v not_o by_o faith_n or_o circumcision_n of_o the_o heart_n as_o this_o of_o the_o gospel_n do_v but_o stand_v mere_o upon_o nature_n and_o the_o circumcision_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o according_o have_v their_o outward_a and_o faederall_a holiness_n and_o outward_a cleansing_n all_o which_o be_v abolish_v with_o their_o state_n and_o no_o such_o holiness_n or_o distinction_n be_v now_o between_o any_o person_n in_o the_o world_n answ_n second_o though_o they_o be_v under_o the_o old_a covenant_n legal_o dispense_v wherein_o grace_n be_v more_o obscure_o and_o spare_o communicate_v to_o god_n people_n than_o it_o be_v under_o the_o gospel_n yet_o the_o old_a covenant_n be_v a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n which_o all_o must_v needs_o grant_v unless_o they_o think_v that_o the_o patriarch_n prophet_n and_o that_o holy_a nation_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v a_o graceless_a people_n out_o of_o favour_n with_o god_n either_o not_o at_o all_o save_v or_o save_v by_o work_n for_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o be_v save_v but_o by_o grace_n or_o work_n and_o no_o salvation_n by_o grace_n but_o in_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n but_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o be_v so_o blasphemous_a as_o to_o say_v this_o second_o if_o the_o old_a covenant_n stand_v not_o by_o faith_n to_o use_v your_o phrase_n and_o circumcision_n of_o the_o heart_n how_o be_v it_o that_o god_n promise_v circumcision_n of_o the_o heart_n deut._n 30.6_o and_o live_v by_o faith_n hab._n 2.4_o and_o the_o prophet_n call_v upon_o the_o people_n for_o circumcision_n of_o the_o heart_n jer._n 4.4_o and_o for_o faith_n psal_n 37._o esa_n 7._o 2_o chron._n 20._o and_o that_o the_o

speak_v as_o it_o be_v take_v without_o the_o promise_n and_o that_o covenant_n which_o god_n make_v with_o abraham_n and_o as_o man_n seek_v justification_n by_o it_o whether_o without_o the_o promise_n before_o christ_n or_o without_o the_o gospel_n since_o christ_n or_o whether_o they_o seek_v justification_n by_o the_o law_n together_o with_o the_o promise_n or_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v not_o god_n end_n in_o give_v the_o law_n to_o his_o people_n but_o man_n abuse_n of_o it_o so_o it_o bring_v man_n into_o a_o state_n of_o bondage_n and_o so_o the_o obstinate_a jew_n that_o thus_o abuse_v the_o law_n be_v cast_v out_o as_o ishmael_n and_o hagar_n and_o as_o the_o faithful_a be_v under_o the_o discipline_n and_o padagogie_n of_o the_o law_n they_o be_v in_o a_o servile_a condition_n in_o comparison_n of_o that_o great_a freedom_n from_o those_o intolerable_a burden_n of_o ceremony_n and_o great_a discomfort_n and_o fear_n accompany_v the_o same_o which_o the_o faithful_a have_v under_o the_o gospel_n but_o notwithstanding_o their_o bondage_n they_o be_v son_n and_o heir_n and_o lord_n of_o all_o gal._n 4.1_o and_o so_o they_o be_v under_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n though_o legal_o administer_v as_o for_o your_o follow_a discourse_n wherein_o you_o talk_v your_o pleasure_n against_o magistrate_n and_o minister_n and_o cry_v out_o of_o the_o
