where_o the_o apostle_n plain_o tell_v we_o that_o here_o while_o we_o walk_v by_o faith_n we_o walk_v not_o by_o sight_n imply_v that_o while_o faith_n continue_v sight_n be_v absent_a consequent_o when_o sight_n come_v faith_n disappear_v though_o it_o be_v true_a here_o whilst_o we_o be_v in_o the_o body_n we_o be_v absent_a from_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o see_v he_o that_o be_v invisible_a must_v needs_o now_o be_v a_o act_n of_o faith_n according_a to_o the_o text_n you_o quote_v heb._n 11.27_o but_o the_o time_n will_v come_v when_o faith_n will_v be_v turn_v into_o vision_n and_o promise_v which_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o faith_n into_o fruition_n which_o be_v the_o end_n of_o faith_n when_o we_o shall_v see_v face_n to_o face_n see_v he_o as_o he_o be_v and_o know_v as_o we_o be_v know_v 1_o cor._n 13.12_o 1_o joh._n 3.2_o so_o that_o it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v evident_a that_o infant_n have_v or_o shall_v have_v faith_n in_o heaven_n that_o it_o be_v at_o least_o a_o very_a great_a question_n whether_o such_o a_o thing_n can_v fair_o be_v say_v of_o the_o great_a actual_a believer_n in_o the_o world_n but_o further_a suppose_v we_o shall_v give_v you_o the_o premise_n and_o grant_v you_o that_o infant_n may_v have_v faith_n in_o heaven_n your_o conclusion_n be_v not_o a_o little_a to_o be_v admire_v or_o rather_o yourselves_o for_o your_o strange_a skill_n in_o theological_a logic_n sir_n do_v you_o indeed_o look_v upon_o this_o to_o be_v good_a reason_v that_o because_o a_o thing_n be_v or_o may_v be_v thus_o or_o so_o in_o heaven_n therefore_o it_o be_v and_o must_v be_v so_o here_o on_o earth_n if_o you_o do_v not_o why_o do_v you_o talk_v at_o this_o extravagant_a rate_n and_o endeavour_v to_o impose_v that_o upon_o other_o which_o you_o do_v not_o believe_v yourselves_o if_o you_o do_v i_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o all_o the_o wit_n i_o have_v be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o discover_v the_o greatness_n of_o your_o folly_n yet_o take_v a_o taste_n however_o in_o heaven_n the_o saint_n shall_v be_v whole_o free_v from_o all_o sin_n sorrow_n and_o trouble_n of_o what_o nature_n soever_o ergo_fw-la why_o not_o so_o here_o on_o earth_n in_o heaven_n saint_n shall_v be_v immortal_a ergo_fw-la why_o not_o so_o here_o on_o earth_n in_o heaven_n the_o now_o vile_a body_n of_o saint_n shall_v be_v change_v and_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o christ_n ergo_fw-la why_o not_o so_o here_o on_o earth_n with_o much_o more_o of_o this_o nature_n certain_o sir_n there_o be_v none_o can_v ever_o have_v think_v you_o so_o preposterous_o ridiculous_a if_o you_o have_v not_o yourselves_o proclaim_v it_o upon_o the_o housetop_n what_o a_o strange_a thing_n it_o be_v that_o man_n so_o manifest_o weak_a shall_v yet_o be_v so_o conceited_o strong_a as_o to_o suppose_v themselves_o able_a to_o answer_v all_o the_o question_n argument_n and_o objection_n that_o can_v be_v send_v they_o from_o the_o people_n call_v anabaptist_n but_o i_o hope_v you_o may_v yet_o live_v to_o see_v your_o vanity_n and_o so_o get_v into_o the_o road_n of_o learning_n more_o wisdom_n three_o i_o can_v but_o note_n how_o strange_o sometime_o you_o abuse_v your_o antagonist_n in_o ask_v they_o such_o kind_n of_o question_n as_o imply_v a_o absurdity_n in_o they_o when_o they_o be_v no_o more_o concern_v in_o the_o question_n than_o yourselves_o as_o for_o instance_n you_o very_o reprehensive_o ask_v they_o how_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o parent_n can_v put_v the_o child_n further_o off_o from_o god_n and_o how_o child_n can_v lose_v by_o christ_n come_v who_o come_v to_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n etc._n etc._n now_o will_v not_o any_o body_n be_v apt_a to_o think_v that_o the_o baptist_n must_v needs_o hold_v the_o affirmative_a here_o in_o both_o these_o question_n or_o else_o you_o must_v needs_o be_v very_o impertinent_a and_o injurious_a to_o they_o thus_o unworthy_o to_o insinuate_v now_o sir_n i_o challenge_v you_o to_o give_v a_o instance_n if_o you_o can_v of_o any_o among_o the_o baptist_n that_o ever_o tell_v you_o either_o in_o word_n or_o write_n that_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o parent_n put_v the_o child_n further_o off_o from_o god_n or_o that_o child_n lose_v any_o thing_n by_o the_o come_v of_o christ_n for_o certain_o either_o you_o do_v know_v of_o some_o such_o or_o you_o do_v not_o if_o you_o do_v you_o ought_v to_o put_v it_o out_o of_o question_n for_o your_o own_o vindication_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v reckon_v they_o as_o weak_a in_o that_o as_o you_o be_v in_o some_o other_o thing_n but_o if_o you_o know_v of_o none_o such_o what_o shame_n ought_v you_o to_o take_v to_o yourselves_o for_o thus_o disingenuous_o misrepresent_v your_o antagonist_n to_o the_o world_n as_o if_o those_o very_a thing_n be_v the_o question_n in_o debate_n betwixt_o you_o in_o the_o last_o place_n i_o shall_v take_v a_o little_a notice_n what_o a_o strange_a faculty_n there_o be_v general_o in_o you_o pedobaptist_n of_o fawn_a one_o upon_o another_o how_o apt_a you_o be_v to_o magnify_v and_o extol_v one_o another_o for_o every_o little_a nothing_o you_o do_v upon_o a_o publick-stage_n this_o have_v be_v a_o fashion_n of_o a_o long_o stand_v among_o you_o that_o whoever_o carry_v the_o thing_n you_o still_o resolve_v to_o carry_v the_o thank_n and_o whoever_o lose_v you_o must_v still_o ride_v triumphant_a and_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o your_o postscript-gentleman_n towards_o mr._n elliot_n of_o new-england_n not_o that_o he_o so_o much_o as_o attempt_n to_o prove_v that_o mr._n elliot_n do_v merit_n or_o deserve_v any_o honour_n for_o what_o he_o there_o say_v he_o do_v but_o mere_o because_o mr._n elliot_n do_v something_o with_o which_o that_o gentleman_n be_v please_v therefore_o honour_n will_v for_o ever_o redound_v to_o mr._n elliot_n of_o new-england_n whereas_o it_o be_v ten_o to_o one_o if_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o cause_n be_v but_o thorough_o examine_v and_o impartial_o consider_v the_o honour_n may_v rebound_v from_o mr._n elliot_n and_o redound_v to_o they_o which_o oppose_v he_o and_o why_o not_o for_o he_o only_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o open_o and_o earnest_o maintain_v the_o cause_n of_o infant-baptism_n against_o a_o sort_n of_o person_n who_o forget_v that_o in_o the_o gospel-church_n the_o promise_n be_v to_o believer_n and_o their_o child_n and_o be_v unwilling_a to_o reckon_v child_n among_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n etc._n etc._n he_o scarce_o so_o much_o as_o tell_v we_o much_o less_o do_v he_o prove_v that_o mr._n elliot_n be_v in_o the_o truth_n and_o his_o antagonist_n in_o a_o error_n so_o that_o still_o for_o aught_o we_o know_v the_o honour_n may_v belong_v to_o the_o other_o side_n to_o they_o who_o open_o and_o earnest_o oppose_v the_o cause_n of_o infant-baptism_n against_o a_o sort_n of_o person_n who_o forget_v that_o in_o the_o gospel-church_n the_o promise_n he_o allude_v to_o be_v any_o otherwise_o to_o any_o body_n than_o it_o be_v to_o every_o body_n or_o to_o believer_n child_n any_o otherwise_o than_o it_o be_v to_o believer_n themselves_o namely_o upon_o condition_n of_o their_o believe_v and_o perform_v the_o condition_n require_v in_o order_n thereunto_o as_o their_o parent_n before_o they_o be_v fain_o to_o do_v before_o they_o have_v any_o interest_n therein_o for_o the_o promise_n belong_v to_o all_o the_o world_n upon_o those_o condition_n and_o to_o none_o in_o the_o world_n without_o they_o for_o if_o it_o belong_v to_o any_o without_o condition_n than_o the_o promise_n be_v absolute_a and_o belong_v as_o much_o to_o unbeliever_n and_o their_o child_n as_o it_o can_v do_v to_o any_o body_n else_o and_o it_o be_v worth_a observe_v that_o these_o very_a person_n unto_o who_o peter_n speak_v these_o word_n be_v not_o themselves_o believer_n as_o yet_o but_o unbeliever_n when_o peter_n speak_v these_o word_n unto_o they_o etc._n etc._n neither_o have_v this_o gentleman_n tell_v we_o at_o all_o what_o infant_n be_v the_o better_a for_o mr._n elliot_n reckon_v they_o disciple_n of_o christ_n he_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o tell_v we_o that_o mr._n elliot_n prove_v they_o so_o to_o be_v and_o pray_v what_o advantage_n can_v it_o be_v to_o poor_a infant_n to_o be_v miscall_v and_o reckon_v what_o they_o be_v not_o what_o if_o mr._n elliot_n of_o new-england_n have_v reckon_v child_n of_o believer_n to_o be_v lawyer_n counsellor_n and_o judge_n will_v this_o have_v do_v the_o poor_a child_n any_o good_a or_o have_v provoke_v any_o wise_a man_n to_o have_v carry_v any_o of_o they_o a_o fee_n to_o plead_v his_o cause_n or_o what_o honour_n will_v have_v be_v due_a to_o
