not_o deny_v the_o antecedent_n how_o then_o can_v you_o deny_v the_o consequent_a my_o second_o argument_n be_v this_o that_o if_o infant_n be_v incapable_a of_o believe_v than_o they_o be_v not_o the_o subject_n of_o baptism_n according_a to_o the_o commission_n but_o they_o be_v so_o here_o you_o deny_v the_o minor_a which_o i_o wonder_v at_o that_o you_o shall_v be_v of_o the_o judgement_n that_o infant_n be_v capable_a of_o believe_v yea_o your_o deny_v the_o minor_a speak_v as_o much_o my_o three_o argument_n be_v if_o the_o essence_n of_o faith_n consist_v in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o understanding_n and_o of_o the_o will_n than_o infant_n be_v incapable_a of_o believe_v here_o you_o deny_v the_o sequel_n you_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o the_o essence_n of_o faith_n consist_v in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o understanding_n and_o of_o the_o will_n and_o if_o you_o have_v it_o will_v have_v be_v prove_v but_o how_o can_v you_o deny_v the_o sequel_n be_v infant_n capable_a of_o apprehend_v christ_n in_o his_o nature_n and_o in_o his_o office_n for_o so_o he_o must_v be_v apprehend_v as_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n be_v infant_n capable_a of_o consent_v christ_n to_o be_v they_o and_o they_o christ_n in_o all_o his_o office_n which_o be_v the_o act_n of_o the_o will_n that_o follow_v the_o act_n of_o the_o understanding_n can_v infant_n make_v a_o resignation_n of_o themselves_o to_o christ_n to_o be_v teach_v by_o he_o and_o save_v by_o he_o and_o rule_v and_o govern_v by_o he_o can_v you_o prove_v by_o the_o word_n that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o capacity_n in_o infant_n or_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o capacity_n in_o the_o child_n of_o believer_n consider_v as_o such_o and_o not_o in_o the_o child_n of_o unbeliever_n my_o four_o argument_n be_v that_o if_o none_o can_v believe_v on_o jesus_n christ_n that_o never_o hear_v of_o jesus_n christ_n than_o infant_n be_v incapable_a of_o believe_v here_o again_o you_o deny_v the_o sequel_n you_o know_v there_o be_v scripture_n enough_o to_o prove_v the_o antecedent_n in_o every_o proposition_n and_o the_o consequent_a be_v right_o draw_v 〈◊〉_d so_o that_o you_o have_v no_o more_o ground_n to_o

continual_a deny_v without_o render_v any_o reason_n for_o what_o you_o do_v or_o discover_v any_o fallacy_n in_o any_o one_o of_o my_o argument_n the_o argument_n you_o offer_v yourself_o be_v judge_v by_o some_o to_o have_v little_a weight_n in_o they_o and_o that_o by_o pedobaptist_n as_o well_o as_o other_o your_o first_o be_v that_o if_o child_n be_v church-member_n than_o they_o have_v

to_o it_o then_o i_o deny_v your_o major_n that_o church-membership_n be_v the_o ground_n of_o baptism_n i_o bring_v mat._n 3._o and_o luke_n 3._o and_o show_v you_o that_o those_o that_o come_v to_o

church-member_n de_fw-fr jure_fw-la for_o by_o the_o law_n they_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v cast_v out_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o produce_v that_o law_n but_o you_o can_v not_o do_v it_o and_o now_o sir_n i_o will_v offer_v you_o two_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o then_o mention_v first_o suppose_v a_o grant_n that_o by_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v mean_v the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v then_o a_o national_a church_n yet_o your_o argument_n be_v impertinent_a this_o be_v before_o the_o commission_n be_v give_v out_o at_o which_o time_n it_o be_v grant_v that_o child_n be_v church-member_n but_o if_o you_o will_v argue_v from_o church-membership_n to_o a_o right_a to_o baptism_n you_o must_v prove_v that_o they_o be_v now_o church-member_n under_o the_o new_a dispensation_n the_o constitution_n of_o the_o church_n be_v change_v from_o national_a to_o congregational_a the_o matter_n of_o which_o be_v visible_a saint_n and_o that_o be_v such_o as_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o charity_n be_v inherent_o holy_a and_o the_o form_n mutual_a consent_n and_o agreement_n and_o that_o church-membership_n be_v put_v into_o the_o commission_n to_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o baptism_n for_o if_o you_o prove_v not_o their_o right_n to_o baptism_n by_o the_o commission_n you_o do_v nothing_o and_o this_o i_o think_v will_v be_v too_o hard_a a_o task_n second_o when_o child_n be_v church-member_n church_n membership_n be_v not_o the_o ground_n of_o baptism_n christ_n and_o john_n never_o baptize_v church-member_n consider_v as_o such_o but_o first_o make_v they_o disciple_n and_o then_o baptize_v they_o joh._n 4._o 1._o they_o be_v church-member_n before_o they_o be_v disciple_n of_o christ_n and_o they_o be_v make_v disciple_n before_o they_o be_v baptize_v your_o second_o argument_n be_v that_o if_o infant_n be_v disciple_n than_o they_o be_v the_o subject_n of_o baptism_n according_a to_o the_o commission_n but_o they_o be_v so_o etc._n etc._n the_o minor_a be_v deny_v now_o pray_v consider_v what_o weak_a prop_n they_o be_v you_o fortify_v your_o minor_a with_o at_o first_o you_o say_v a_o child_n be_v a_o disciple_n as_o soon_o as_o his_o parent_n have_v dedicate_v he_o to_o be_v teach_v but_o do_v you_o think_v he_o be_v a_o disciple_n by_o instruction_n according_a to_o the_o commission_n and_o so_o a_o fit_a subject_a to_o be_v baptize_v not_o have_v learned_a jesus_n christ_n second_o do_v the_o parent_n dedicate_v their_o child_n to_o be_v teach_v while_n infant_n when_o they_o desire_v you_o to_o baptize_v they_o or_o do_v you_o undertake_v to_o teach_v they_o while_o infant_n or_o do_v you_o ever_o look_v after_o they_o endeavour_v to_o teach_v they_o you_o say_v a_o child_n be_v a_o scholar_n the_o first_o day_n he_o go_v to_o school_n though_o he_o have_v learn_v nothing_o but_o be_v he_o a_o scholar_n before_o he_o go_v to_o school_n or_o a_o scholar_n by_o instruction_n when_o he_o have_v learn_v nothing_o you_o baptize_v they_o before_o they_o go_v to_o school_n before_o you_o go_v about_o to_o teach_v they_o will_v christ_n look_v on_o these_o as_o disciple_n to_o he_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n or_o on_o you_o minister_n as_o keep_v close_o to_o the_o commission_n these_o thing_n will_v not_o hold_v at_o the_o great_a day_n when_o the_o commission_n shall_v be_v lay_v open_a again_o bear_v with_o i_o that_o i_o speak_v so_o plain_a for_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o christ_n that_o i_o be_o now_o plead_v his_o great_a commission_n wherein_o his_o kingly_a authority_n be_v so_o high_o concern_v may_v be_v due_o observe_v and_o the_o ordinance_n due_o administer_v however_o child_n may_v be_v account_v scholar_n by_o we_o in_o a_o improper_a sense_n the_o first_o day_n they_o go_v to_o school_n though_o they_o have_v learn_v nothing_o yet_o i_o show_v you_o that_o philip_n do_v not_o account_v the_o eunuch_n a_o scholar_n though_o he_o have_v

be_v indeed_o a_o disciple_n of_o christ_n that_o have_v learned_a jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o learn_v he_o as_o to_o deny_v himself_o for_o jesus_n christ_n luke_n 14._o 27_o 28._o nor_o do_v i_o
