A77753	A iustification of two points now in controversie with the Anabaptists concerning baptisme: the first is, that infants of Christians ought to be baptized, with grounds to prove it, and their objections answered. With a briefe answer to Master Tombes twelve doubtfull arguments against it in his exercitation about infants baptisme. Also a briefe answer to Captaine Hobsons five arguments in his falacy of infants baptisme, being (as he saith) that which should have beene disputed by him, and Mr. Knowles, and some others; against Mr. Calamy and Mr. Cranford. The second point is, that the sprinckling the baptized more agreeth with the minde of Christ then dipping or plunging in or under the water: with grounds to prove it, and a briefe auswer [sic] to what they have to say against it. / By T.B.

confession_n but_o say_v paul_n of_o those_o child_n that_o they_o be_v unclean_a then_o but_o now_o say_v he_o they_o be_v holy_a because_o one_o of_o the_o parent_n be_v become_v a_o christian_n now_o those_o child_n be_v not_o heathen_n but_o christian_n so_o then_o if_o the_o same_o child_n which_o before_o be_v unclean_a and_o now_o be_v holy_a by_o the_o conversion_n of_o one_o of_o the_o parent_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v such_o a_o holiness_n to_o distinguish_v they_o from_o infidel_n to_o be_v of_o the_o true_a christian_n church_n then_o he_o that_o deny_v this_o truth_n must_v needs_o draw_v this_o conclusion_n that_o the_o same_o child_n which_o before_o paul_n come_v there_o be_v bastard_n but_o now_o one_o of_o the_o parent_n be_v convert_v to_o the_o christian_n religion_n those_o child_n that_o be_v bastard_n and_o unclean_a be_v now_o holy_a and_o no_o bastard_n again_o shall_v we_o be_v such_o fool_n as_o to_o think_v because_o the_o husband_n be_v a_o christian_n that_o his_o christianity_n will_v so_o sanctify_v his_o wife_n that_o she_o can_v have_v a_o bastard_n or_o will_v her_o be_v a_o christian_n so_o sanctify_v her_o husband_n that_o he_o can_v have_v a_o bastard_n if_o this_o be_v true_a then_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o we_o have_v so_o many_o bastard_n in_o engl._n when_o both_o the_o husband_n &_o the_o wife_n profess_v themselves_o to_o be_v christian_n and_o yet_o sometime_o both_o of_o they_o be_v so_o profane_a as_o to_o have_v bastard_n then_o i_o say_v that_o holiness_n speak_v of_o by_o paul_n be_v that_o mark_n of_o distinction_n to_o be_v know_v from_o turk_n and_o infidel_n to_o be_v of_o the_o visible_a church_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o have_v a_o true_a right_n to_o baptism_n and_o so_o to_o all_o other_o ordinance_n and_o privilege_n of_o the_o christian_n church_n although_o infancy_n or_o sickness_n may_v hinder_v they_o from_o some_o of_o they_o yet_o it_o can_v from_o baptism_n be_v only_o passive_a the_o work_n be_v do_v upon_o they_o and_o no_o action_n require_v of_o they_o therefore_o they_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v nine_o they_o object_n against_o my_o five_o ground_n say_v that_o command_n of_o god_n cease_v which_o do_v command_v to_o set_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n upon_o jewish_a infant_n when_o christ_n come_v and_o change_v that_o token_n of_o circumcision_n into_o baptism_n but_o i_o say_v the_o command_n remain_v although_o the_o token_n be_v change_v as_o for_o instance_n god_n command_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n to_o keep_v holy_a the_o seven_o day_n for_o it_o be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n but_o this_o command_n remain_v although_o by_o christ_n the_o day_n be_v change_v and_o so_o for_o other_o command_n to_o israel_n thou_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n but_o i_o thou_o shall_v not_o make_v to_o thyself_o any_o grave_a image_n nor_o bow_v down_o unto_o it_o nor_o take_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n in_o vain_a but_o although_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v cut_v off_o and_o the_o christian_n church_n graft_v in_o we_o may_v not_o say_v these_o command_n be_v repeal_v when_o the_o church_n be_v change_v and_o so_o conclude_v that_o christian_n may_v have_v other_o god_n and_o bow_v down_o to_o they_o and_o worship_v they_o and_o take_v the_o name_n of_o israel_n god_n in_o vain_a because_o the_o command_n be_v not_o make_v to_o we_o but_o to_o they_o nor_o keep_v no_o sabbath_n because_o the_o command_n be_v make_v to_o they_o and_o not_o to_o we_o nor_o set_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n on_o our_o child_n because_o it_o be_v to_o they_o and_o not_o to_o we_o because_o our_o church_n and_o sabbath_n and_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v all_o change_v then_o unless_o you_o be_v mind_v to_o cast_v off_o god_n the_o sabbath_n the_o sacrament_n the_o true_a religion_n let_v your_o child_n be_v baptize_v ten_o they_o object_n say_v those_o that_o have_v a_o right_a to_o one_o of_o the_o sacrament_n have_v a_o right_a to_o both_o but_o infant_n have_v no_o right_n to_o the_o lord_n supper_n because_o they_o can_v examine_v themselves_o nor_o remember_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n nor_o discern_v his_o body_n in_o the_o sacrament_n than_o infant_n may_v not_o be_v baptize_v i_o answ_v those_o impediment_n that_o hinder_v they_o from_o receive_v the_o lord_n supper_n be_v no_o impediment_n to_o hinder_v they_o from_o baptism_n because_o nothing_o be_v require_v in_o the_o baptize_v infant_n they_o be_v mere_o passive_a the_o work_n be_v do_v upon_o they_o when_o as_o the_o lord_n supper_n require_v many_o action_n as_o to_o take_v eat_z do_v this_o in_o man_n of_o age_n and_o understanding_n again_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o infant_n have_v a_o right_n to_o both_o sacrament_n and_o all_o other_o ordinance_n although_o by_o natural_a infirmity_n they_o be_v for_o the_o present_a disable_v from_o some_o of_o they_o as_o by_o sickness_n or_o infancy_n yet_o this_o hinder_v not_o nor_o disable_v any_o from_o baptism_n therefore_o infant_n ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v although_o baptism_n be_v not_o of_o absolute_a necessity_n where_o it_o can_v be_v have_v yet_o this_o contempt_n of_o it_o be_v damnable_a but_o in_o time_n of_o persecution_n or_o in_o a_o journey_n it_o may_v be_v defer_v as_o israel_n do_v in_o the_o wilderness_n forty_o year_n josh_n 5.5_o but_o they_o may_v not_o do_v so_o in_o canaan_n for_o if_o they_o do_v it_o may_v be_v their_o child_n when_o they_o come_v to_o age_n will_v despise_v that_o ordinance_n and_o then_o they_o be_v to_o be_v cut_v off_o from_o israel_n because_o they_o have_v break_v the_o covenant_n gen._n 17.14_o and_o how_o do_v these_o man_n know_v but_o their_o child_n will_v despise_v the_o covenant_n when_o they_o come_v to_o age_n nay_o i_o dare_v say_v it_o be_v the_o only_a way_n to_o make_v they_o despise_v it_o when_o they_o come_v to_o age_n for_o it_o be_v say_v all_o the_o people_n that_o hear_v christ_n and_o the_o publican_n justify_v god_n be_v baptize_v with_o the_o baptism_n of_o john_n that_o be_v with_o water_n mat._n 3.11_o but_o the_o pharise_n and_o lawyer_n reject_v the_o council_n of_o god_n be_v not_o baptize_v of_o john_n luke_n 7.29.30_o and_o it_o be_v a_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o such_o parent_n that_o will_v not_o set_v that_o mark_n of_o distinction_n to_o sever_v their_o child_n from_o turk_n by_o baptism_n that_o they_o shall_v never_o be_v sever_v from_o corrupt_a nature_n to_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n then_o to_o avoid_v this_o let_v they_o be_v baptize_v eleven_o they_o object_n that_o if_o christ_n who_o say_v learn_v of_o i_o be_v not_o baptize_v till_o he_o be_v 30_o year_n old_a than_o infant_n must_v not_o be_v baptize_v luke_n 3.23_o but_o the_o first_o be_v true_a ergo_fw-la so_o be_v the_o second_o i_o answ_v it_o be_v true_a that_o christ_n bid_v we_o learn_v of_o he_o to_o be_v humble_a and_o meek_a mat._n 11.28_o but_o he_o do_v not_o bid_v we_o learn_v of_o he_o to_o be_v 30_o year_n old_a before_o that_o we_o be_v baptize_v and_o if_o we_o learn_v that_o we_o must_v neither_o be_v more_o nor_o less_o but_o just_a of_o his_o age_n again_o he_o be_v both_o circumcise_v and_o baptize_v but_o he_o do_v not_o bid_v we_o learn_v both_o again_o at_o thirty_o year_n old_a he_o put_v a_o end_n to_o the_o jewish_a religion_n and_o can_v not_o be_v baptize_v before_o neither_o can_v he_o set_v up_o christian_a religion_n till_o he_o have_v put_v down_o the_o jewish_a religion_n but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v the_o anabaptist_n to_o tarry_v till_o they_o be_v thirty_o year_n old_a before_o they_o become_v christian_n and_o say_v they_o learn_v to_o do_v so_o of_o christ_n again_o at_o the_o same_o time_n other_o be_v baptize_v at_o several_a age_n some_o more_o some_o less_o than_o the_o age_n of_o christ_n then_o the_o matter_n lie_v in_o this_o whether_o they_o be_v convert_v from_o false_a religion_n to_o the_o true_a religion_n although_o they_o be_v not_o convert_v from_o the_o state_n of_o corrupt_a nature_n to_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n they_o baptize_v they_o we_o read_v of_o none_o that_o ever_o be_v deny_v to_o be_v baptize_v but_o the_o pharise_n and_o sadducee_n who_o come_v to_o john_n to_o be_v baptize_v but_o he_o refuse_v to_o baptize_v they_o because_o they_o will_v not_o leave_v their_o sect_n and_o schism_n they_o will_v be_v pharise_n and_o sadducee_n still_o therefore_o he_o call_v they_o a_o generation_n of_o viper_n mat._n 3.7_o because_o such_o will_v eat_v out_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o christian_n church_n this_o may_v be_v a_o item_n to_o all_o the_o sect_n and_o schism_n among_o

other_o and_o that_o they_o only_o have_v the_o true_a visible_a church_n of_o god_n and_o so_o baptism_n be_v one_o mark_v of_o the_o christian_n church_n whereby_o it_o be_v know_v from_o turk_n

four_o hundred_o year_n after_o fourthly_a he_o faith_n circumcision_n do_v sign_n the_o promise_n of_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n to_o they_o and_o baptism_n sign_n eternal_a life_n by_o christ_n but_o i_o say_v they_o both_o signify_v and_o sign_n the_o promise_n of_o that_o everlasting_a covenant_n make_v with_o christ_n for_o the_o elect_a yet_o not_o to_o all_o that_o have_v it_o but_o to_o god_n people_n that_o be_v among_o we_o and_o for_o canaan_n i_o say_v it_o be_v but_o a_o overplus_n of_o those_o promise_n which_o we_o enjoy_v as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n when_o as_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a mercy_n be_v the_o principal_a thing_n intend_v in_o that_o everlasting_a covenant_n and_o whereas_o he_o say_v if_o baptism_n succeed_v circumcision_n than_o none_o but_o

i_o suppose_v this_o may_v satisfy_v the_o doubt_n from_o this_o scripture_n why_o christian_n infant_n may_v not_o be_v baptize_v three_o his_o examination_n of_o other_o scripture_n to_o increase_v his_o doubt_n be_v these_o act_v 16.15_o 32_o 33.18.8_o 1_o cor._n 1.16_o he_o say_v the_o word_n to_o the_o jailor_n be_v speak_v to_o all_o in_o his_o house_n and_o he_o rejoice_v believe_v god_n with_o all_o his_o household_n and_o crispus_n believe_v god_n with_o all_o his_o house_n and_o be_v baptize_v hence_o he_o conclude_v that_o the_o name_n of_o the_o whole_a house_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o those_o which_o believe_v in_o it_o only_o be_v baptize_v but_o i_o have_v answer_v already_o that_o if_o but_o one_o of_o the_o parent_n become_v a_o christian_n the_o child_n be_v holy_a which_o can_v be_v deny_v by_o any_o scripture_n or_o sound_a reason_n and_o again_o he_o have_v say_v nothing_o of_o liddiahs_n household_n and_o beside_o although_o the_o jailor_n have_v servant_n which_o believe_v by_o hear_v and_o see_v the_o apostle_n carriage_n in_o the_o prison_n yet_o liddia_n be_v a_o stranger_n go_v to_o hear_v paul_n preach_v be_v convert_v and_o he_o come_v

suffice_v that_o they_o baptize_v whole_a household_n of_o which_o infant_n be_v a_o part_n and_o i_o say_v again_o although_o they_o be_v unclean_a before_o if_o but_o one_o of_o the_o parent_n believe_v and_o be_v baptize_v yet_o now_o they_o be_v holy_a and_o if_o both_o parent_n profess_v themselves_o christian_n which_o be_v our_o case_n in_o england_n the_o matter_n be_v out_o of_o doubt_n there_o infant_n ought_v to_o be_v baptize_v again_o when_o god_n give_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n to_o abraham_n he_o command_v that_o the_o token_n shall_v be_v set_v on_o all_o the_o male_n in_o his_o house_n and_o he_o according_o obey_v and_o do_v so_o gen._n 17.12.27_o and_o say_v the_o lord_n i_o know_v that_o abraham_n will_v teach_v his_o child_n and_o his_o

have_v say_v and_o prove_v before_o that_o christ_n come_v not_o to_o take_v away_o the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n but_o to_o change_v it_o and_o to_o enlarge_v it_o but_o the_o covenant_n and_o the_o command_n be_v both_o the_o same_o and_o remain_v still_o see_v my_o answer_n to_o the_o nine_o objection_n than_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o if_o household_n be_v circumcise_v and_o baptize_v than_o our_o infant_n may_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v i_o shall_v answer_v two_o question_n suppose_v where_o heathen_n and_o christian_n live_v in_o a_o land_n together_o yet_o at_o some_o

the_o christian_n leave_n to_o come_v with_o a_o minister_n and_o baptize_v it_o but_o they_o will_v not_o part_v with_o the_o child_n now_o may_v this_o man_n go_v and_o baptize_v it_o and_o engage_v himself_o to_o bring_v it_o up_o in_o the_o christian_n religion_n i_o answ_v no_o it_o be_v sin_n and_o folly_n to_o promise_v that_o which_o he_o can_v perform_v the_o child_n be_v keep_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n by_o infidel_n yea_o it_o be_v as_o bad_a and_o sinful_a to_o do_v as_o those_o do_v under_o the_o prelate_n government_n who_o do_v engage_v themselves_o that_o the_o child_n shall_v forsake_v the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o work_n and_o all_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o believe_v the_o article_n of_o the_o christian_n faith_n and_o keep_v all_o god_n commandment_n therefore_o it_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v do_v the_o second_o question_n be_v this_o suppose_v a_o child_n of_o heathenish_a infidel_n shall_v by_o some_o providence_n of_o god_n lawful_o come_v under_o the_o government_n of_o christian_n ought_v the_o child_n to_o be_v baptize_v i_o answ_v yes_o because_o they_o have_v power_n to_o bring_v it_o up_o in_o the_o christian_n religion_n therefore_o abraham_n be_v command_v to_o circumcise_v all_o the_o male_n in_o his_o house_n some_o of_o they_o be_v child_n of_o infidel_n because_o the_o lord_n know_v that_o abraham_n will_v
