th'Apostle * 1 Cor. 6.9.10 Ephes 5.5 bee not deceiued neither Fornicators nor Idolators nor Adulterers nor Wantons nor Buggerers nor Theeues nor Couetous nor Drunkards nor Raylers nor extortioners shall inherite the Kingdome of God From hence it is most plaine that a man that liueth in any one of these sinnes and hateth to be reformed hee shall neuer enter into the Kingdome of God except he repent of that his wickednes Ereu. The Scriptures are so plaine they cannot be denyed onely I would of all the rest haue this sin of Idolatry throughly discouered for many are exceedingly deceiued therein seeing themselues blameles in the other sinnes of which many indeed cannot be taxed although they be grosse Idolaters yet they blesse themselues in this their wickednes crying Peace when there is no peace Therefore shew I pray you what Idolatry is that all s eing it may auoyde it if they will not wilfully perish also that I may bee the better able to conuince others of it Odeg. Idolo-latria is a word compounded of Idolon signifying an Image shape forme likenes Idolatry 〈◊〉 ●ar or representation and Latria which signifie seruice worship obedience or reuerence so that Idolatry in short is a seruice of likenes either of false Gods in stead of the true or else of false worships in stead of the true hence is plaine that he that worshipeth a false God or pretendeth to worship the true God in a false māner which indeed is not the worship of the true God for God cannot be worshipped after a false manner He is an Idolater shal neuer enter into Gods fauor without repentance for as the sin of speaking in the name of a false God and speaking falshood in the name of the true God is all one so shall the punishment be * Deut. 18.20 Ereu. You hauing now spoken something of Repentance in generall and particularly of Idolatrie of which euery soule that therein hath transgressed must repent or he cannot enter into the Kingdome of God as I see I pray you proceed to the next which is Faith Odeg. Faith toward God is diuersly taken in the Scriptures as 1. For a confident beleeuing that God is 2. What God through Christ hath done 3. Of what God through Christ hath promised 4. Of what God through Christ hath cōmanded All which a man hath in a measure before he repenteth for his Faith of these prouoketh him to repent but Faith in this place is taken for a confident assurance of the pardon of his sinnes repented of vnto iustification before God through Christ which no man can haue vntill he haue repented Ereu. The next in order is Baptismes aboue which is much controuersie therefore I desire to heare what you can say in it Odeg. There are in the new Testament diuers Baptismes mentioned which I shal speake of hereafter in their due places but now I am to speake of that which was called Iohns Baptisme as Paul calleth the Gospell his * Rom. 26. in that they were the teachers thereof not otherwise which Baptisme is Repentance for the remission of sinnes and washing with water into the Name of the Father c. In which it shall appeare who are to haue it who not Baptisme or washing with water appertaineth onely to them that declareth their repentance and Faith vnto those Disciples of Christ that Baptise them This appeareth by Iohn Baptist doctrine and practice he Preached the Baptisme of repentance for the remission of sinnes * Math. 1. ● and they were Baptised of him in Iorden confessing their sinnes * Math. 3.6 confirmed by the practise of IESVS his Disciples in the Cities of Israell they made and Baptised Disciples * Ioh. 4.1 3.22 Afterwards in his commission for all Nations Goe therefore make Disciples all Nations Baptising them * Mat. 28.19 c. He that shall beleeue and be Baptised shall be saued * Mark 16.16 c. According to which commission they continually taught and practised Amend and be Baptised euery one * Act. 2.38 Vers 4● c. And they that gladly receiued the word were Baptised * Act. 2.38 Vers 4● Assoone as they beleeued both men and women were Baptised * Act. 8.12 The Eunuch also when he beleeued was Baptised * Act. 10.47 Vers 36. c Cornelius likewise when he had receiued the holy Ghost * Act. 10.47 was Baptised Paul after his Conuersion was Baptised * Act. 9.18 Lydia and her houshold the Iaylor and his houshold when the word was Preached and they beleeued * Act. 16.15 32.33.34 Crispus his houshold when they beleeued * Act. 18.8 The Ephesians after they beleeued * Act. 19.5 These and all the Churches of the new Testament were Baptised after they beleeued as afterwards I shall haue occasion to make further probation of Ereu. This indeed was the practise of the Primitiue Churches it cannot bee denyed but they obiect 1. That was in the Churches infancie 2. They bid you proue this perpetuall Odeg. First when IESVS and his Apostles first planted those Churches they were at as perfect age and in as excellent estate as euer Churches can be at their first plantation but of this at large hereafter 2. All the Cōmandements of Christ are perpetuall and remaine vntill his comming againe The last speaking of the Father is by the Sonne CHRIST * Heb. 1.2 his Commandements are to be kept without spot vntill his appearing * 1 Tim. 6.13.14 wee must earnestly contend for the maintainance of the faith once giuē to the Saincts * Iude 3. 1. Pet. 2 2● This Doctrine that Peter preached amend be Baptised endureth for euer For the Lord hath established his word for euer * Psal 119.152 And if an Angell from heauen Preach or command otherwise let them bee accursed * Gal. 1.8.9 and he that taketh away this word of God God shall take his name out of the booke of life * Reuel 22.18.19 Who so changeth the Lawes of God is Antachrist that exalteth himselfe aboue God * Dan. 7.25 2 Thes 2.4 Ereu. Why may not Infants be Baptised Odeg. Because there is neither commandement example nor true consequence for it in all Christs perfect Testament who was faithfull as Moses in all his house * Heb. 3.2 c. and threatneth most dreadfull Iudgements against all such as either adde too or take from that his perfect Testament * Reuel 22.18.10 and the Sonne is worthy of more honor then the seruant Moses sends vs to him Deut. 18.15 The Father sends vs to him Mat. 17.5 There is now but one Law-giuer Iam. 4.12 That there is neither Commandement nor example in Christs Testament our aduersaries vsually grant and that there is no true consequence I shall manifestly proue taking away clearely all their objections to euery mans conscience in the sight of God First let
