their_o sin_n aforetime_o have_v be_v as_o scarlet_a or_o crimson_a dye_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n and_o who_o know_v but_o such_o public_a engagement_n may_v oblige_v they_o in_o conscience_n for_o future_a time_n and_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n against_o they_o to_o keep_v their_o covenant_n &_o amend_v their_o life_n and_o turn_v unto_o god_n and_o cleave_v unto_o

sacred_a scripture_n and_o primitive_a example_n as_o i_o nothing_o doubt_v but_o to_o make_v it_o manifest_a and_o that_o these_o distinction_n and_o division_n be_v of_o absolute_a necessity_n in_o a_o church_n right_o constitute_v and_o govern_v and_o discipline_v and_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n right_o administer_v both_o to_o the_o weak_a and_o strong_a as_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v 1._o and_o first_o then_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o make_v it_o good_a that_o the_o child_n of_o such_o have_v be_v baptize_v by_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o upon_o bare_a profession_n of_o historical_a faith_n without_o either_o confession_n of_o their_o sin_n or_o profession_n of_o their_o repentance_n and_o a_o resolution_n of_o amendment_n of_o life_n that_o we_o read_v of_o in_o scripture_n and_o in_o my_o apprehension_n this_o be_v either_o clear_a form_n the_o baptism_n of_o the_o jailor_n household_n and_o from_o the_o ordinary_a tender_a of_o baptism_n to_o the_o whole_a

of_o infant_n act_n 16._o 15_o 31_o to_o 34._o and_o act_n 8_o 37._o and_o if_o they_o be_v such_o parent_n who_o have_v be_v baptize_v in_o their_o minority_n their_o child_n case_n be_v no_o other_o but_o in_o equal_a respect_n with_o the_o grand_a child_n of_o such_o parent_n who_o grandfather_n be_v holy_a but_o their_o own_o parent_n profane_a who_o yet_o ordinary_o be_v account_v admittable_a 2._o and_o second_o concern_v admittance_n of_o all_o to_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n that_o do_v desire_v admittance_n and_o will_v in_o the_o public_a congregation_n profess_v a_o true_a justify_n and_o lively_a faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o if_o their_o sin_n have_v be_v notorious_a do_v free_o confess_v they_o and_o profess_v repentance_n and_o a_o resolution_n of_o amendment_n of_o life_n i_o can_v see_v how_o any_o church_n can_v deny_v to_o admit_v they_o whatever_o they_o have_v be_v in_o former_a time_n but_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o administer_v the_o

kind_a respect_n as_o dear_a brethren_n for_o so_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o charity_n see_v they_o can_v know_v the_o contrary_a of_o certainty_n they_o ought_v to_o judge_n as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o and_o there_o be_v never_o more_o require_v of_o any_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n as_o 1_o cor._n 16._o 14._o &_o chap._n 13._o &_o chap._n 10._o 32_o 33._o &_o act_v 2._o 41_o 42._o i_o

that_o all_o these_o shall_v at_o their_o first_o admission_n to_o the_o outward_a ordinance_n be_v but_o babe_n in_o christ_n be_v likewise_o admit_v as_o visible_a saint_n and_o member_n of_o a_o
