own_o of_o his_o mere_a grace_n and_o free_a promise_n without_o their_o confession_n so_o that_o of_o the_o contrary_a part_n we_o do_v thus_o reason_n they_o that_o believe_v be_v to_o be_v

and_o never_o so_o earnest_a conference_n with_o they_o let_v we_o proceed_v to_o declare_v in_o a_o sue_v but_o yet_o manifest_a argument_n that_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v and_o that_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n our_o lord_n have_v baptize_v infant_n the_o lord_n command_v to_o baptise_v all_o nation_n and_o therefore_o infant_n for_o they_o be_v comprehend_v under_o the_o word_n of_o all_o nation_n again_o who_o so_o ever_o god_n reckon_v among_o the_o faithful_a be_v faithful_a for_o peter_n in_o a_o vision_n hear_v that_o which_o god_n have_v cleanse_v call_v 10_o not_o thou_o common_a or_o unclean_a god_n reckon_v infant_n among_o the_o faithful_a therefore_o they_o be_v faithful_a except_o we_o have_v rather_o resist_v god_n and_o seem_v to_o be_v strong_a than_o he_o and_o now_o we_o count_v it_o out_o of_o all_o controversy_n that_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n baptize_v they_o who_o christ_n command_v to_o baptise_v but_o he_o command_v to_o baptise_v the_o faithful_a therefore_o the_o apostle_n baptize_v infant_n the_o gospel_n be_v great_a than_o baptism_n for_o paul_n say_v the_o lord_n send_v i_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o 1._o not_o to_o baptise_v not_o that_o he_o do_v absolute_o deny_v that_o he_o be_v not_o send_v to_o baptise_v but_o because_o he_o prefer_v doctrine_n for_o the_o lord_n commend_v they_o both_o to_o his_o apostle_n furthermore_o in_o the_o gospel_n child_n be_v receive_v of_o god_n and_o not_o refuse_v who_o then_o unless_o he_o be_v willing_o obstinate_a can_v debar_v they_o from_o the_o less_o in_o sacrament_n the_o thing_n signify_v and_o the_o sign_n be_v consider_v the_o thing_n signify_v be_v the_o excellenter_fw-la from_o the_o infant_n be_v not_o debar_v who_o then_o will_v deny_v they_o the_o sign_n true_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o god_n be_v more_o esteem_v by_o the_o word_n than_o the_o sign_n by_o the_o word_n we_o gather_v that_o woman_n be_v not_o exclude_v from_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n although_o therefore_o we_o read_v not_o that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o first_o institution_n and_o set_v at_o the_o first_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n neither_o that_o there_o be_v any_o express_a law_n which_o command_v we_o to_o admit_v they_o to_o the_o supper_n yet_o nevertheless_o without_o fear_n or_o doubt_v by_o a_o perfect_a argument_n we_o admit_v they_o s._n peter_n can_v not_o deny_v they_o the_o baptism_n of_o water_n to_o who_o he_o see_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o be_v give_v which_o be_v a_o assure_a token_n of_o god_n people_n for_o he_o say_v in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n can_v any_o man_n forbid_v water_n that_o these_o shall_v not_o be_v baptize_v which_o have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o well_o as_o we_o wherefore_o the_o holy_a apostle_n peter_n deny_v not_o baptism_n to_o infant_n for_o he_o know_v assure_o even_o by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o his_o lord_n and_o master_n that_o i_o may_v speak_v nothing_o now_o of_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n of_o god_n that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v of_o infant_n no_o man_n be_v receive_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n unless_o he_o be_v the_o friend_n of_o god_n and_o these_o be_v not_o destitute_a of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o he_o which_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n 8._o the_o same_o be_v none_o of_o he_o child_n be_v god_n therefore_o they_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n therefore_o if_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o well_o as_o we_o if_o they_o be_v account_v among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o we_o that_o be_v grow_v in_o age_n who_o i_o pray_v you_o can_v forbid_v these_o to_o be_v baptize_v with_o water_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n at_o the_o first_o the_o apostle_n murmur_v be_v they_o not_o sufficient_o instruct_v against_o they_o that_o bring_v infant_n unto_o the_o lord_n but_o the_o lord_n rebuke_v they_o and_o say_v suffer_v little_a child_n to_o come_v unto_o i_o why_o then_o do_v not_o the_o rebellious_a anabaptist_n obey_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o what_o other_o thing_n do_v they_o at_o this_o day_n which_o bring_v child_n unto_o baptism_n than_o that_o which_o they_o in_o time_n past_a do_v which_o bring_v infant_n unto_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o lord_n receive_v they_o lay_v his_o hand_n on_o they_o and_o bless_v they_o and_o to_o be_v short_a by_o word_n and_o gesture_n he_o notable_o signify_v that_o child_n be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o most_o acceptable_a to_o god_n but_o why_o then_o by_o the_o same_o mean_n say_v

beside_o this_o circumcision_n among_o the_o old_a people_n of_o god_n be_v give_v to_o infant_n therefore_o baptism_n ought_v to_o be_v give_v to_o infant_n among_o the_o new_a people_n for_o

of_o the_o skoare_z of_o god_n people_n to_o who_o the_o inheritance_n of_o life_n be_v due_a we_o attribute_v nothing_o here_o to_o the_o birth_n which_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n but_o all_o
