A77753	A iustification of two points now in controversie with the Anabaptists concerning baptisme: the first is, that infants of Christians ought to be baptized, with grounds to prove it, and their objections answered. With a briefe answer to Master Tombes twelve doubtfull arguments against it in his exercitation about infants baptisme. Also a briefe answer to Captaine Hobsons five arguments in his falacy of infants baptisme, being (as he saith) that which should have beene disputed by him, and Mr. Knowles, and some others; against Mr. Calamy and Mr. Cranford. The second point is, that the sprinckling the baptized more agreeth with the minde of Christ then dipping or plunging in or under the water: with grounds to prove it, and a briefe auswer [sic] to what they have to say against it. / By T.B.	Bakewell, Thomas, b. 1618 or 19.	1646 (1646)	Wing B534; Thomason E316_23; ESTC R5282	32,062	32

and_o christ_n say_v a_o man_n must_v be_v bear_v of_o water_n and_o then_o of_o the_o spirit_n john_n 3.5_o and_o john_n the_o baptist_n say_v i_o baptize_v you_o with_o water_n but_o he_o come_v after_o that_o baptize_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mat._n 3.11_o but_o master_n tomb_n say_v to_o baptize_v infant_n be_v to_o baptize_v those_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o appoint_v to_o be_v baptize_v and_o yet_o he_o grant_v that_o infant_n may_v be_v baptize_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o may_v be_v baptize_v if_o they_o be_v know_v to_o we_o from_o that_o text_n act_v 10.47_o but_o say_v he_o to_o baptize_v infant_n because_o christ_n command_v to_o baptise_v all_o nation_n be_v very_o faulty_a first_o in_o cast_v away_o that_o restriction_n which_o christ_n have_v put_v second_o in_o determine_v that_o all_o man_n whatsoever_o be_v to_o be_v baptize_v and_o so_o it_o be_v no_o privilege_n to_o believer_n and_o their_o child_n but_o as_o common_a to_o infidel_n as_o to_o their_o child_n i_o answer_v here_o he_o deny_v the_o command_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v a_o rule_n and_o will_v make_v a_o restriction_n where_o christ_n make_v none_o and_o then_o he_o make_v a_o false_a conclusion_n as_o if_o he_o ever_o say_v or_o do_v intend_v to_o baptize_v the_o child_n of_o infidel_n before_o their_o parent_n be_v teach_v the_o covenant_n and_o so_o by_o baptism_n be_v admit_v into_o the_o christian_a church_n but_o yet_o in_o other_o place_n he_o say_v himself_o that_o believer_n child_n have_v no_o privilege_n above_o the_o child_n of_o infidel_n but_o because_o he_o slight_v this_o general_a command_n to_o all_o nation_n which_o include_v all_o sort_n of_o mankind_n because_o he_o have_v not_o a_o special_a command_n for_o infant_n only_o i_o may_v say_v to_o he_o as_o christ_n say_v to_o the_o pharisee_n when_o they_o say_v to_o swear_v by_o the_o temple_n be_v nothing_o but_o he_o that_o swear_v by_o the_o gold_n of_o it_o be_v a_o debtor_n so_o the_o command_n to_o baptise_v all_o nation_n be_v nothing_o unless_o it_o be_v for_o infant_n only_o when_o as_o the_o temple_n sanctify_v the_o gold_n mat._n 23.16.17_o and_o the_o whole_a nation_n include_v infant_n but_o he_o must_v have_v they_o disciple_n first_o because_o it_o be_v report_v that_o christ_n make_v and_o baptize_v disciple_n john_n 4.2_o when_o as_o he_o grant_v it_o to_o be_v a_o false_a report_n therefore_o nothing_o can_v safe_o be_v draw_v from_o it_o but_o i_o shall_v give_v a_o further_a answer_n to_o this_o and_o captain_n hobson_n three_o agreement_n together_o again_o suppose_v we_o grant_v that_o man_n of_o year_n who_o be_v convert_v from_o false_a religion_n to_o the_o true_a christian_a religion_n that_o such_o must_v be_v teach_v the_o covenant_n be_v capable_a of_o teach_v before_o they_o have_v the_o token_n of_o it_o give_v to_o they_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o abraham_n and_o with_o many_o heathen_n when_o they_o be_v convert_v to_o the_o jew_n religion_n but_o when_o they_o be_v admit_v their_o infant_n have_v a_o right_a to_o it_o without_o any_o teach_n go_v before_o and_o when_o they_o be_v capable_a they_o teach_v they_o the_o covenant_n as_o they_o be_v command_v deut._n 4.10.13_o and_o so_o they_o teach_v they_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o passeover_n exod._n 12.26.27_o then_o why_o may_v not_o christian_n infant_n be_v teach_v the_o covenant_n after_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o token_n of_o it_o as_o well_o as_o jewish_a infant_n again_o as_o they_o be_v mere_a passives_n when_o they_o receive_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n so_o be_v our_o infant_n the_o work_n be_v do_v upon_o they_o therefore_o they_o may_v be_v baptize_v second_o they_o object_n that_o if_o they_o must_v repent_v before_o they_o be_v baptize_v than_o infant_n may_v not_o be_v baptize_v but_o the_o first_o be_v true_a act_n 2.38_o ergo_fw-la so_o be_v the_o second_o i_o answ_v it_o be_v true_a in_o man_n of_o year_n that_o be_v convert_v from_o heathen_n to_o the_o christian_a religion_n but_o it_o be_v neither_o require_v of_o jewish_a infant_n before_o circumcision_n nor_o of_o christian_a infant_n before_o baptism_n for_o as_o they_o circumcise_a their_o infant_n so_o john_n baptize_v they_o before_o or_o unto_o repentance_n mat._n 3.11_o therefore_o christian_a infanta_n ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v but_o what_o if_o the_o saducee_v and_o pharisee_n and_o the_o bloody_a murderer_n of_o christ_n be_v call_v upon_o to_o repent_v before_o either_o john_n or_o peter_n will_v admit_v they_o to_o baptism_n will_v it_o follow_v that_o infant_n of_o christian_n must_v do_v so_o actual_o before_o they_o be_v admit_v to_o baptism_n the_o one_o of_o these_o be_v a_o generation_n of_o viper_n have_v the_o leaven_n of_o false_a doctrine_n that_o must_v be_v purge_v out_o mat._n 16.13_o else_o like_o viper_n it_o will_v eat_v out_o the_o heart_n and_o life_n of_o christian_a religion_n mat._n 3.7_o and_o the_o other_o be_v the_o leaven_n of_o prophannesse_n which_o like_o savage_a beast_n will_v trample_v religion_n under_o their_o foot_n than_o this_o also_o must_v be_v purge_v out_o 1_o cor._n 5.7.13_o then_o as_o both_o must_v be_v purge_v out_o so_o they_o must_v be_v both_o keep_v out_o but_o will_v it_o follow_v that_o infant_n must_v repent_v of_o murder_n and_o heresy_n before_o they_o be_v admit_v to_o baptism_n let_v they_o that_o will_v have_v they_o to_o repent_v of_o those_o foul_a sin_n prove_v they_o guilty_a of_o they_o or_o else_o they_o be_v very_o unjust_a to_o debar_v they_o of_o the_o privilege_n of_o the_o church_n and_o actual_o excommunicate_v they_o without_o any_o trial_n or_o just_a proof_n against_o they_o and_o till_o than_o we_o must_v hold_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v three_o they_o object_n if_o none_o must_v be_v baptise_a but_o such_o as_o be_v call_v than_o infant_n of_o christian_n may_v not_o be_v baptise_a but_o the_o first_o be_v true_a act_n 1.39_o ergo_fw-la so_o be_v the_o second_o i_o answ_n it_o be_v true_a to_o those_o afar_o off_o they_o must_v be_v call_v to_o the_o christian_a religion_n but_o it_o be_v not_o true_a to_o christian_n already_o call_v nor_o require_v of_o their_o infant_n any_o more_o than_o it_o be_v of_o jewish_a infant_n for_o by_o virtue_n of_o their_o call_n their_o child_n be_v holy_a 1_o cor._n 7.14_o and_o aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v four_o they_o object_n that_o if_o none_o must_v be_v baptize_v but_o those_o that_o confess_v their_o sin_n than_o infant_n must_v not_o be_v baptize_v but_o the_o first_o be_v true_a mat._n 3.6_o ergo_fw-la so_o be_v the_o second_o i_o answ_v this_o also_o be_v true_a in_o man_n of_o year_n who_o be_v convert_v from_o heathenism_n to_o the_o christian_a religion_n so_o it_o be_v when_o any_o be_v convert_v to_o the_o jewish_a religion_n but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o infant_n either_o jew_n or_o christian_n again_o when_o multitude_n come_v to_o john_n to_o be_v baptize_v of_o he_o some_o few_o of_o they_o may_v confess_v the_o sin_n of_o all_o as_o be_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o people_n to_o god_n as_o any_o minister_n be_v in_o his_o congregation_n than_o this_o hinder_v not_o but_o they_o and_o our_o infant_n may_v be_v baptize_v five_o they_o object_n if_o none_o must_v be_v baptize_v but_o such_o as_o believe_v than_o infant_n may_v not_o be_v baptize_v but_o the_o first_o be_v true_a mark_v 16.16_o act_n 8.36_o 37._o ergo_fw-la so_o be_v the_o second_o i_o answ_n if_o none_o but_o such_o as_o we_o know_v do_v true_o believe_v must_v be_v baptize_v than_o we_o must_v baptize_v none_o at_o all_o because_o we_o know_v no_o man_n heart_n and_o faith_n be_v that_o new_a name_n

mistake_v and_o set_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n upon_o reprobate_n and_o refuse_v to_o give_v it_o to_o the_o elect._n again_o christ_n say_v those_o little_a one_o that_o he_o take_v in_o his_o arm_n do_v believe_v in_o he_o see_v mat._n 16.6_o compare_v with_o luke_n 9.26_o and_o their_o heart_n may_v as_o well_o be_v know_v to_o we_o as_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n of_o year_n for_o we_o know_v the_o heart_n of_o none_o again_o that_o faith_n that_o be_v require_v be_v but_o to_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o that_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v the_o true_a religion_n but_o infant_n of_o christian_n have_v take_v up_o no_o false_a religion_n than_o it_o need_v not_o be_v require_v that_o they_o shall_v believe_v the_o true_a be_v bring_v up_o in_o none_o other_o again_o to_o baptize_v

none_o but_o those_o that_o do_v true_o believe_v be_v the_o direct_a way_n to_o cast_v out_o the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n altogether_o because_o we_o can_v true_o know_v they_o than_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o neglect_v this_o duty_n to_o baptize_v infant_n six_o they_o say_v if_o none_o ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v but_o such_o as_o make_v profession_n of_o justify_v faith_n than_o infant_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v but_o infant_n can_v make_v such_o profession_n and_o say_v master_n tomb_n neither_o john_n the_o baptist_n nor_o the_o apostle_n will_v baptize_v any_o without_o some_o show_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n and_o although_o he_o grant_v that_o infant_n may_v have_v a_o right_n to_o heaven_n yet_o they_o must_v not_o be_v baptize_v till_o that_o appear_v but_o i_o say_v their_o heart_n will_v never_o be_v know_v to_o we_o than_o they_o have_v as_o good_a say_v they_o shall_v never_o be_v baptize_v as_o to_o say_v they_o shall_v not_o be_v baptize_v till_o they_o know_v their_o heart_n again_o will_v not_o the_o apostle_n baptize_v any_o unless_o they_o profess_v a_o lie_n &_o that_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o christ_n who_o know_v their_o heart_n and_o then_o may_v they_o lawful_o be_v baptize_v when_o they_o have_v profess_v a_o lie_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o christ_n for_o they_o baptize_v always_o in_o his_o presence_n before_o his_o death_n john_n 3.22.26.42_o that_o they_o may_v be_v his_o disciple_n and_o not_o they_o and_o will_v christ_n have_v all_o those_o to_o profess_v that_o they_o have_v true_a justify_v faith_n when_o as_o he_o know_v their_o heart_n and_o will_v not_o trust_v they_o john_n 2._o v._n 23_o 24._o what_o horrible_a blasphemy_n be_v this_o no_o they_o be_v require_v but_o to_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o his_o religion_n be_v the_o true_a religion_n and_o then_o they_o have_v right_a to_o baptism_n in_o the_o approbation_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o their_o parent_n profession_n may_v be_v impute_v to_o the_o child_n because_o they_o have_v power_n to_o bring_v they_o up_o in_o that_o religion_n they_o profess_v as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n have_v power_n to_o bring_v up_o their_o infant_n in_o their_o religion_n neither_o have_v their_o infant_n any_o other_o profession_n but_o that_o of_o their_o parent_n then_o christian_n infant_n may_v as_o well_o be_v baptize_v as_o jewish_a infant_n be_v circumcise_v seven_o they_o object_n against_o my_o second_o ground_n say_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n there_o

but_o say_v master_n tomb_n that_o promise_n be_v to_o jew_n that_o be_v call_v of_o the_o send_n of_o christ_n from_o these_o text_n act._n 3.25.26.13.32.33_o this_o we_o grant_v but_o then_o he_o

but_o to_o this_o we_o grant_v that_o baptism_n without_o repentance_n be_v of_o no_o value_n but_o when_o we_o hear_v the_o baptism_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v promise_v to_o christian_n

to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o baptism_n and_o so_o to_o all_o other_o privilege_n of_o the_o christian_n church_n to_o this_o a_o secret_a answer_n be_v employ_v that_o they_o have_v a_o right_a to_o
