A67315 Baptism anatomized being propounded in five queries, viz. I. What water-baptism is? II. What is the end for which it was instituted? III. What giveth right to it? IV. Who are the true administrators of it? V. Whether it be lawful for a man to baptize himself? Wherein the right that the infants of believers have to water-baptism is vindicated: the duty of believing parents in that matter, asserted: and that by the contrary tenet and practise, they ought themselves to be excluded from the Lords-Supper, is plainly and fully proved. And wherein also is proved, that the covenant which God made with Abraham, Gen. 17. and with Israel Exod. ch. 19. and Deut. 29. are the Covenant of Grace in Christ, and not part of the covenant of works made with Adam before his fall.

find Faith on the Earth Luke 18. 8. and he will come in an hour which the wicked shall not be aware of Matth. 24. 44. but the Godly are exhorted to be ready at all times Mat. 25. 10. Therefore seeing the approaching of these Judgments is already beginning for Apostacy increases the distress of Nations 2 Chro. 15. 2. 6. with Seas and Waves Roaring Mens Hearts saith Christ failing them for fear and for looking after those things which are coming on the Earth Luke 21. 25 26. for the Powers of Heaven to wit of Godliness in the Church shall he so shaken that the power of true Godliness will be hardly found 2 Tim. 3. 5. only a Luke-warm chilled formal Profession remaining in Churches which is the effects of the last Vial of Gods Wrath powred into the Air Rev. 16. 17. Eph. 2. 2. and 4. 14. of false Doctrines of Men namely among others that of meritorious Works seeking Justification by the external act of their own Righteousness Luke 18. 9. wherein is shewed by the Plague of the hail of a Tallent weight the coldness of Love to God and one to another abounding so that the Root of Love decaying Eph. 2. 17. all Iniquity will abound Matth 24 12. that by it saith Christ to John the Grapes of Sin will hasten to be fully Ripe for the Harvest of the latter Day Rev. 14. 18. Deut. 32. 32. Now then these things seriously considered would move any Christian heart to speak when the sound of that word is heard and regarded as it is written Prov. 24. 10 11 12. If thou faint in the day of Adversity thy Strength is small if thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto Death and those that are ready to be slain if thou sayest behold we know it not doth not he that pondereth the Heart consider it and he that keepeth thy Soul doth not he know it and shall not he render to every Man accordsng to his Works And Lastly least these People called Anabaptists should be offended because I call them not Baptists as they call themselves but Anabaptists my reason is this because first the word Baptist Matth. 3. 1. Luke 7. 20. was a Name only belonging to Gods immediate Messenger John who was by extraordinary Commission sent to Baptise therefore was he Surnamed the Baptist so that neither the Apostles nor any of the primitive Christians did presume to call themselves by that Name Baptist and as touching the word Anabaptist it is no more than one Anabaptized or Rebaptized and therefore all that are Baptized in Infancy and are Baptized again properly bear that Name Anabaptist so that it is no Nick-Name to those people who desire to be called Baptists Thus having discharged my Duty leaving what is here discussed in this Treatise to the Impartial Reader to Judge thereof according to the Written word of God Isa 8. 20. To the Law and to the Testimony if they speak not according to this word it is because there is no light in them Now for the Benefit and Comfort that through Gods Blessing any shall reap for their Souls good by what is here laid down let them give to God only the Glory which is the Father of Lights and the Author of every good and perfect Gift to whom be ascribed Dominion Power and Glory in and through our Lord Jesus Christ now and for ever Amen Remaining Thine in the Lord Tho.
