from_o baptism_n but_o with_o what_o reason_n do_v they_o do_v this_o none_o at_o all_o true_o and_o therefore_o observe_v how_o this_o bold_a assertion_n will_v stand_v christ_n send_v his_o apostle_n to_o disciple_v all_o nation_n and_o then_o to_o baptize_v they_o they_o affirm_v if_o the_o apostle_n can_v not_o disciple_v some_o yet_o they_o may_v baptize_v they_o this_o text_n exclude_v all_o but_o disciple_n from_o baptism_n they_o i_o say_v affirm_v the_o contrary_a without_o proof_n that_o which_o they_o answer_v p._n 6._o this_o be_v a_o weak_a way_n of_o argue_v i_o answer_v if_o the_o order_n of_o word_n signify_v nothing_o in_o the_o commission_n as_o they_o feign_v why_o do_v they_o not_o baptize_v the_o adult_n first_o and_o teach_v they_o afterward_o i_o will_v i_o can_v hear_v their_o answer_n to_o this_o not_o only_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n but_o even_o all_o down_o to_o this_o day_n yea_o even_a themselves_o keep_v to_o

baptize_v even_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o commission_n let_v they_o prove_v by_o the_o same_o commission_n that_o some_o may_v be_v baptize_v before_o they_o be_v teach_v if_o they_o can_v but_o some_o be_v baptize_v confess_v their_o sin_n weak_o urge_v for_o that_o particle_n confess_v do_v not_o in_o propriety_n of_o speech_n import_n that_o their_o confession_n be_v after_o their_o baptism_n but_o rather_o the_o contrary_a confess_v their_o sin_n they_o be_v baptize_v but_o if_o the_o order_n of_o word_n in_o some_o place_n be_v not_o strict_o to_o be_v observe_v that_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v observe_v here_o be_v a_o weak_a way_n of_o argue_v indeed_o and_o see_v themselves_o keep_v to_o the_o order_n of_o the_o word_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o adult_n but_o not_o in_o infant_n let_v they_o show_v reason_n for_o this_o in_o the_o commission_n but_o infant_n may_v be_v disciple_n by_o teach_v viz._n by_o their_o parent_n be_v teach_v because_o the_o kohathite_n in_o their_o parent_n be_v say_v to_o keep_v the_o charge_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n from_o a_o month_n old_a etc._n etc._n it_o be_v false_a the_o child_n of_o a_o month_n old_a be_v not_o say_v to_o keep_v the_o charge_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n in_o their_o parent_n as_o you_o affirm_v but_o all_o their_o male_n the_o young_a as_o well_o as_o the_o old_a be_v say_v to_o keep_v the_o charge_n of_o

of_o heathen_n to_o be_v the_o scholar_n and_o disciple_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o may_v be_v baptize_v because_o some_o of_o their_o ancestor_n adam_n noah_n etc._n etc._n be_v teach_v and_o make_v disciple_n there_o do_v we_o rejoice_v if_o the_o israelite_n do_v rejoice_v in_o their_o ancestor_n on_o the_o bank_n of_o the_o red_a sea_n than_o judas_n believe_v in_o his_o ancestor_n at_o the_o
