this_o the_o argument_n that_o go_v before_o viz._n they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n have_v a_o right_n to_o baptism_n and_o be_v not_o the_o second_o the_o same_o word_n for_o word_n if_o by_o the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n you_o mean_v baptism_n therefore_o the_o answer_n to_o the_o first_o be_v also_o a_o answer_n to_o that_o you_o call_v a_o second_o and_o whereas_o you_o say_v that_o the_o text_n gen._n 17._o tell_v we_o that_o every_o manchild_n have_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n because_o they_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n why_o i_o pray_v have_v not_o the_o

your_o talk_n of_o infant_n be_v in_o the_o covenant_n can_v lawful_o justify_v their_o baptism_n till_o the_o time_n come_v that_o god_n command_v it_o and_o this_o keep_v female_a infant_n from_o

another_o text_n which_o be_v ezek._n 37.25_o where_o god_n promise_v by_o his_o prophet_n that_o the_o tribe_n of_o israel_n shall_v be_v join_v together_o and_o shall_v dwell_v in_o their_o own_o

they_o know_v thou_o the_o only_a true_a god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n who_o thou_o have_v send_v or_o else_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o some_o child_n shall_v be_v damn_v die_v in_o their_o

you_o go_v on_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o infant_n die_v in_o their_o infancy_n be_v save_v which_o be_v not_o the_o thing_n deny_v but_o the_o thing_n deny_v be_v that_o they_o can_v be_v save_v without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o instead_o of_o this_o you_o will_v prove_v that_o infant_n shall_v be_v save_v which_o i_o never_o deny_v only_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o you_o miserable_o abuse_v the_o scripture_n you_o bring_v to_o prove_v their_o salvation_n which_o be_v isa_n 65.20_o from_o which_o text_n you_o observe_v that_o they_o die_v in_o as_o good_a
