have_v no_o part_n nor_o lot_n in_o that_o matter_n but_o for_o his_o treachery_n and_o covetousness_n bear_v the_o bag_n and_o betray_v the_o lord_n of_o life_n for_o piece_n of_o money_n in_o that_o they_o may_v be_v compare_v to_o he_o but_o thou_o say_v the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o person_n do_v not_o disannul_v his_o office_n be_v lawful_o call_v thereunto_o until_o he_o be_v degrade_v from_o that_o office_n and_o to_o prove_v it_o thou_o bring_v several_a scripture_n as_o ezekiel_n 34._o 3._o where_o the_o shepherd_n eat_v the_o fat_a and_o cloth_n with_o the_o wool_n and_o do_v not_o feed_v the_o flock_n esa._n 56._o 10_o 11._o they_o be_v dumb_a dog_n that_o can_v bark_v sleep_v lie_v down_o love_v to_o slumber_n they_o all_o look_v to_o their_o own_o way_n every_o one_o for_o his_o gain_n from_o his_o quarter_n come_v you_o say_v they_o i_o will_v fetch_v wine_n and_o we_o will_v fill_v ourselves_o with_o strong_a drink_n and_o to_o morrow_n shall_v be_v as_o this_o day_n and_o much_o more_o abundant_a and_o these_o say_v thou_o be_v true_o call_v from_o which_o example_n your_o minister_n as_o thou_o thus_o provost_n be_v lawful_o call_v to_o the_o work_n of_o the_o

those_o before_o mention_v be_v lawful_o call_v unto_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n be_v wicked_a person_n but_o when_o thou_o read_v the_o scripture_n over_o again_o thou_o may_v see_v that_o those_o be_v such_o as_o the_o lord_n say_v do_v run_v and_o he_o send_v they_o not_o and_o say_v the_o lord_n say_v when_o he_o have_v not_o speak_v unto_o they_o jer._n 14._o 14._o now_o in_o this_o

which_o be_v son_n of_o belial_n and_o know_v not_o god_n and_o so_o his_o book_n yet_o stand_v in_o force_n for_o a_o trial_n to_o such_o unanswered_a and_o again_o as_o for_o thy_o plead_n for_o tithe_n for_o such_o as_o be_v like_o the_o son_n of_o belial_n thou_o have_v no_o precept_n practice_n nor_o example_n in_o scripture_n to_o plead_v for_o such_o a_o thing_n neither_o as_o such_o nor_o as_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o whereas_o thou_o mention_v act._n 4_o and_o act._n 5._o and_o 1_o cor._n 9_o 4_o 5_o etc._n etc._n these_o scripture_n speak_v nothing_o of_o tithe_n nor_o of_o any_o maintenance_n to_o the_o ministry_n but_o only_o how_o that_o when_o they_o have_v plant_v a_o vineyard_n they_o may_v eat_v of_o the_o fruit_n and_o when_o they_o have_v gather_v a_o flock_n may_v eat_v of_o the_o milk_n and_o when_o they_o have_v sow_v spiritual_a thing_n among_o a_o people_n they_o have_v power_n to_o eat_v and_o power_n to_o drink_v and_o so_o it_o be_v ordain_v that_o they_o who_o preach_v the_o gospel_n shall_v live_v of_o the_o gospel_n but_o it_o be_v not_o ordain_v that_o those_o who_o preach_v the_o gospel_n shall_v live_v by_o force_a maintenance_n or_o by_o make_v merchandise_n of_o man_n good_n and_o estate_n of_o which_o the_o priest_n in_o england_n for_o which_o thou_o write_v this_o defence_n be_v guilty_a again_o thou_o go_v about_o to_o defend_v the_o prie●ts_n sprinkle_v of_o infant_n say_v it_o be_v a_o sign_n or_o seal_n of_o salvation_n page_n 64._o answ._n if_o this_o be_v true_a that_o all_o child_n thus_o sprinkle_v with_o water_n have_v the_o seal_n of_o salvation_n by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o be_v by_o this_o baptism_n make_v partaker_n of_o grace_n and_o unite_v into_o the_o church_n as_o member_n of_o the_o church_n why_o do_v you_o say_v both_o priest_n and_o professor_n that_o there_o be_v no_o fall_v from_o grace_n have_v not_o many_o be_v so_o engraft_v into_o the_o church_n and_o receive_v that_o seal_n who_o you_o now_o call_v heretic_n and_o deceiver_n why_o do_v you_o so_o confound_v one_o principle_n with_o another_o for_o we_o have_v be_v already_o so_o ingraft_v into_o the_o visible_a church_n and_o make_v partaker_n of_o that_o grace_n which_o you_o say_v its_o impossible_a to_o fall_v from_o and_o thou_o bring_v calvin_n word_n which_o say_v that_o although_o there_o be_v but_o a_o little_a water_n cast_v upon_o our_o head_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v not_o a_o vain_a figure_n for_o the_o heaven_n be_v open_v upon_o we_o and_o god_n speak_v in_o it_o as_o it_o be_v from_o heaven_n and_o christ_n be_v there_o present_a with_o his_o blood_n as_o witness_n of_o the_o usage_n and_o operation_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o say_v baptism_n be_v a_o token_n and_o proof_n of_o our_o cleanse_v or_o a_o seal_n and_o character_n whereby_o god_n confirm_v unto_o we_o that_o all_o our_o sin_n be_v cancel_v and_o abolish_v and_o that_o they_o may_v never_o be_v rehearse_v nor_o impute_v so_o then_o by_o this_o he_o that_o have_v a_o little_a water_n cast_v on_o his_o head_n he_o hear_v god_n speak_v in_o it_o and_o christ_n be_v present_a with_o his_o blood_n wash_v away_o all_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v a_o proof_n of_o his_o cleanse_v so_o why_o do_v thou_o and_o the_o priest_n speak_v and_o write_v against_o we_o as_o be_v fall_v from_o grace_n or_o depart_v from_o the_o truth_n see_v we_o have_v receive_v as_o well_o as_o you_o the_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o proof_n of_o cleanse_v and_o can_v fall_v from_o it_o if_o your_o doctrine_n be_v true_a but_o as_o for_o spinkle_a infant_n thou_o have_v not_o bring_v one_o scripture_n to_o prove_v it_o but_o say_v baxter_n against_o tomb_n have_v prove_v it_o and_o quote_v calvin_n and_o beza_n as_o if_o their_o word_n be_v plain_a proof_n for_o thy_o purpose_n than_o any_o scripture_n for_o there_o be_v no_o scripture_n without_o invent_a

by_o consequence_n to_o be_v the_o scope_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v sufficient_a proof_n page_n 73._o again_o thou_o ask_v we_o a_o question_n to_o show_v thou_o one_o command_n or_o example_n in_o the_o scripture_n for_o the_o baptise_n of_o those_o that_o be_v grow_v up_o who_o parent_n one_o or_o both_o be_v christian_n by_o profess_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n answ._n if_o thou_o know_v the_o scripture_n or_o do_v weigh_v thy_o own_o word_n it_o will_v stop_v thou_o from_o ask_v such_o foolish_a and_o unlearned_a question_n for_o thou_o thyself_o confess_v that_o those_o which_o be_v grow_v up_o be_v baptise_v and_o that_o they_o have_v also_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n before_o they_o be_v baptise_v and_o as_o for_o they_o or_o their_o parent_n be_v call_v christian_n by_o their_o profession_n many_o believer_n be_v baptise_v and_o follow_v christ_n before_o the_o name_n christian_n be_v give_v to_o they_o as_o thou_o may_v read_v act_n 11._o 26._o that_o after_o much_o people_n be_v gather_v and_o so_o become_v church_n they_o be_v first_o call_v christian_n at_o antioch_n so_o whatsoever_o their_o parent_n be_v call_v by_o profession_n that_o be_v nothing_o to_o that_o which_o thou_o be_v about_o to_o prove_v sprinkle_v of_o infant_n but_o to_o conclude_v thy_o proof_n for_o infant_n baptism_n thou_o quote_v rob._n brook_n who_o thou_o say_v have_v read_v more_o ecclesiastical_a history_n to_o find_v out_o the_o rise_n and_o beginning_n of_o baptism_n of_o infant_n in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n then_o all_o the_o quaker_n and_o yet_o he_o can_v ne●er_fw-la find_v the_o beginning_n of_o it_o so_o here_o all_o this_o while_n thou_o have_v plead_v for_o that_o which_o thou_o know_v not_o who_o be_v the_o first_o author_n
