A91973	Pædo-baptisme: or, the baptizing of infants justified: by the judgement and practice of ancient and moderne Protestant divines, both foraine, and of this nation: clearly proving the absolute necessity of baptizing infants, from the authority of sacred scripture and the force of undeniable reason. Together with an excellent letter of Mr. John Philpots to the same purpose. / Collected by Robert Ram, minister of Spalding in Lincolnshire. Published by authority.

of_o sin_n as_o it_o appear_v by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o covenant_n make_v unto_o abraham_n 17._o genes_n 17._o i_o will_v set_v my_o covenant_n between_o i_o and_o thou_o say_v the_o lord_n and_o

continual_o see_v in_o heaven_n my_o father_n face_n and_o what_o may_v be_v say_v more_o plain_a than_o this_o it_o be_v not_o the_o will_n of_o the_o heavenly_a father_n that_o the_o infant_n shall_v perish_v whereby_o we_o may_v gather_v that_o he_o receive_v they_o free_o unto_o his_o grace_n although_o as_o yet_o they_o confess_v not_o their_o faith_n since_o than_o that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o promise_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o baptism_n pertain_v as_o well_o to_o child_n as_o to_o man_n why_o shall_v the_o sign_n of_o the_o promise_n which_o be_v baptism_n in_o water_n be_v

apostle_n of_o christ_n do_v baptize_v child_n the_o lord_n command_v his_o apostle_n to_o baptize_v all_o nation_n therefore_o also_o ought_v child_n to_o be_v baptize_v for_o they_o be_v comprehend_v under_o this_o word_n all_o nation_n further_o 10._o act_n 10._o who_o god_n do_v account_n among_o the_o faithful_a they_o be_v faithful_a for_o it_o be_v say_v to_o peter_n that_o

we_o have_v rather_o to_o resist_v god_n and_o seem_v strong_a and_o wise_a than_o he_o and_o without_o all_o doubt_n the_o apostle_n baptize_v those_o who_o christ_n command_v but_o he_o command_v the_o faithful_a to_o be_v baptize_v 1._o 1_o cor._n 1._o among_o the_o which_o infant_n be_v reckon_v the_o apostle_n then_o baptize_v infant_n the_o gospel_n be_v more_o than_o baptism_n for_o paul_n say_v 1._o 1_o cor._n 1._o the_o lord_n send_v i_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o not_o to_o baptize_v not_o that_o he_o deny_v absolute_o that_o he_o be_v send_v to_o baptize_v but_o that_o he_o prefer_v doctrine_n before_o baptism_n for_o the_o lord_n command_v both_o to_o the_o apostle_n but_o child_n be_v receive_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n and_o not_o refuse_v therefore_o what_o person_n be_v of_o reason_n may_v deny_v they_o baptism_n which_o be_v a_o thing_n lesser_a than_o the_o gospel_n for_o in_o sacrament_n be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v the_o thing_n signify_v and_o the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v great_a than_o the_o sign_n and_o from_o the_o thing_n signify_v in_o baptism_n child_n be_v not_o exclude_v who_o therefore_o may_v deny_v they_o the_o sign_n which_o be_v baptism_n in_o water_n st._n peter_n can_v not_o deny_v they_o to_o be_v baptize_v in_o water_n to_o who_o he_o see_v the_o holy_a

have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o well_o as_o we_o therefore_o st._n peter_n deny_v not_o baptism_n to_o infant_n for_o he_o know_v certain_o both_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n and_o by_o the_o covenant_n which_o be_v everlasting_a that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n pertain_v to_o infant_n none_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o such_o as_o god_n love_v 8._o rom._n 8._o and_o which_o be_v endue_v with_o his_o spirit_n for_o whoso_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n he_o be_v none_o of_o he_o but_o infant_n be_v belove_v of_o god_n and_o therefore_o want_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n wherefore_o if_o they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n if_o they_o be_v number_v among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o we_o that_o be_v of_o age_n who_o i_o pray_v you_o may_v well_o withstand_v child_n to_o be_v baptize_v with_o water_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o apostle_n in_o time_n past_o be_v yet_o not_o sufficient_o instruct_v do_v murmur_n against_o those_o that_o bring_v their_o child_n unto_o the_o lord_n but_o the_o lord_n rebuke_v they_o and_o say_v let_v the_o babe_n come_v unto_o i_o 10._o matth._n 10._o why_o then_o do_v not_o these_o rebellious_a anabaptist_n obey_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o what_o do_v they_o nowadays_o else_o that_o bring_v their_o child_n to_o baptism_n then_o that_o they_o do_v in_o time_n past_o which_o bring_v their_o child_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o our_o lord_n receive_v they_o and_o put_v his_o hand_n on_o they_o bless_v they_o and_o both_o by_o word_n and_o by_o gentle_a behaviour_n towards_o they_o declare_v manifest_o that_o child_n be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o entire_o belove_v of_o god_n but_o some_o will_v say_v why_o then_o do_v not_o christ_n baptize_v they_o because_o it_o be_v write_v jesus_n himself_o baptize_v not_o but_o his_o disciple_n 4._o john_n 4._o moreover_o circumcision_n in_o the_o old_a law_n be_v minister_v unto_o infant_n therefore_o baptism_n ought_v to_o be_v minister_v in_o the_o new_a law_n to_o child_n for_o baptism_n be_v come_v in_o stead_n of_o circumcision_n as_o st._n paul_n witness_v 2._o colos_n 2._o say_v to_o the_o colossian_n by_o christ_n you_o be_v circumcise_v with_o a_o circumcision_n which_o be_v without_o hand_n when_o you_o put_v off_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n by_o the_o circumcision_n of_o christ_n be_v bury_v together_o with_o he_o through_o baptism_n behold_v paul_n call_v baptism_n the_o circumcision_n of_o a_o christian_a man_n which_o be_v do_v without_o hand_n not_o that_o water_n may_v be_v minister_v without_o hand_n but_o that_o with_o hand_n no_o man_n ought_v any_o long_o to_o be_v circumcise_v albeit_o the_o ministry_n of_o circumcision_n do_v still_o remain_v in_o faithful_a people_n 5._o josh_n 5._o to_o this_o i_o add_v that_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n be_v always_o ready_a to_o minister_v the_o sacrament_n to_o they_o for_o who_o they_o institute_v as_o for_o example_n we_o may_v behold_v joshua_n who_o most_o diligent_o procure_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n to_o be_v circumcise_v before_o they_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n but_o since_o the_o apostle_n be_v the_o preacher_n of_o the_o word_n and_o the_o very_a faithful_a servant_n of_o jesus_n &c_n &c_n who_o may_v hereafter_o doubt_v that_o they_o baptize_v infant_n since_o baptism_n be_v in_o place_n of_o circumcision_n item_n the_o apostle_n do_v attemperate_a all_o their_o do_n to_o the_o shadow_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o old_a testamont_n therefore_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o they_o do_v attemperate_a baptism_n according_a to_o circumcision_n and_o baptize_v child_n because_o they_o be_v under_o the_o figure_n of_o baptism_n for_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n pass_v through_o the_o red_a sea_n and_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o water_n of_o jordan_n with_o their_o
