A56583	The doctrine of baptism and the disinction of the covenants, or, A plain treatise wherein the four essentials of baptism .... are diligently handled as also the business of the two covenants, wherein is proved that the covenant of life is not made to the seed of believers as coming out of their loins, and therefore that the baptism of infants is drawn from thence by a false consequence / by Thomas Patient.

that_o generation_n must_v needs_o be_v bear_v heir_n to_o if_o they_o be_v bear_v heir_n of_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n which_o if_o this_o shall_v be_v assert_v as_o it_o be_v by_o those_o who_o

of_o all_o in_o general_n psalm_n 14.2_o 3._o which_o the_o apostle_n paul_n urge_v in_o rom._n 3.9_o forward_o speak_v of_o himself_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o national_a church_n of_o the_o

against_o be_v stability_n in_o a_o covenant_n of_o eternal_a life_n it_o can_v be_v imagine_v that_o i_o shall_v much_o insist_v upon_o prove_v this_o doctrine_n of_o stability_n in_o grace_n to_o be_v a_o fundamental_a truth_n i_o shall_v take_v that_o for_o grant_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n in_o several_a scripture_n before_o recite_v as_o in_o psalm_n 125._o they_o that_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v as_o mount_n zion_n which_o can_v be_v remove_v but_o as_o the_o mountain_n be_v round_o about_o jerusalem_n so_o shall_v the_o lord_n be_v about_o they_o from_o this_o time_n forth_o and_o for_o ever_o and_o in_o psal_n 89.33_o if_o thy_o child_n sin_n i_o will_v afflict_v they_o with_o the_o rod_n of_o man_n but_o my_o love_a kindness_n will_v i_o

in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n than_o most_o of_o the_o church_n of_o israel_n that_o be_v in_o a_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v damn_v and_o not_o save_v as_o isaiah_n 10.22_o 23._o though_o

this_o be_v another_o fundamental_a truth_n that_o this_o opinion_n be_v full_o against_o defend_v that_o soul_n may_v be_v true_o in_o a_o covenant_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o yet_o perish_v and_o

doctrine_n to_o we_o that_o except_o you_o be_v bear_v again_o you_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n we_o affirm_v the_o contrary_a see_v by_o the_o first_o birth_n we_o have_v a_o

we_o be_v acquaint_v with_o another_o way_n to_o enter_v into_o life_n than_o the_o way_n of_o believe_v which_o be_v to_o be_v beget_v of_o one_o of_o the_o church_n or_o a_o believer_n we_o find_v the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o 1_o john_n 5._o say_v he_o that_o have_v christ_n have_v life_n he_o that_o have_v not_o christ_n have_v not_o life_n no_o say_v this_o error_n there_o be_v thousand_o that_o be_v interest_v in_o life_n without_o have_v christ_n that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o carnal_a generation_n say_v the_o apostle_n there_o be_v no_o other_o name_n under_o heaven_n by_o which_o we_o
