A80754	The covenant of God with Abraham, opened. Wherein I. The duty of infant-baptism is cleared. II. Something added concerning the Sabbath, and the nature and increase of the kingdome of Christ. Together with a short discourse concerning the manifestations of God unto his people in the last dayes. Wherein is shewed the manner of the spirits work therein to be in the use of ordinary gifts, not by extraordinary revelations. / By William Carter minister of the gospel in London.

into_o his_o rest_n be_v remember_v that_o be_v that_o the_o memorial_n of_o it_o be_v solemnize_v and_o that_o by_o keep_v of_o it_o holy_a in_o that_o sense_n the_o word_n remember_v be_v use_v

shall_v be_v remember_v and_o keep_v and_o that_o these_o day_n of_o purim_n shall_v not_o fail_v from_o among_o the_o jew_n nor_o the_o memorial_n of_o they_o perish_v from_o their_o seed_n so_o the_o lord_n here_o command_v the_o memorial_n of_o his_o rest-day_n to_o be_v preserve_v by_o keep_v that_o day_n holy_a 2._o the_o duty_n explain_v by_o show_v 1_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o 1._o as_o to_o the_o day_n 1._o in_o general_n one_o in_o seven_o six_o day_n shall_v thou_o labour_v and_o do_v all_o thy_o work_n but_o etc._n etc._n 2._o in_o particular_a for_o that_o season_n it_o be_v declare_v of_o the_o week_n the_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v the_o day_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n or_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n 2._o as_o to_o the_o manner_n of_o observe_v and_o keep_v of_o that_o day_n namely_o thou_o shall_v do_v no_o manner_n of_o work_n therein_o thou_o nor_o thy_o son_n nor_o thy_o daughter_n thy_o manservant_n nor_o thy_o maid-servant_n nor_o thy_o cattle_n nor_o thy_o stranger_n that_o be_v within_o thy_o gate_n in_o which_o by_o a_o synecdoche_n all_o other_o sabbath_n day_n duty_n be_v command_v 2._o the_o reason_n of_o it_o 1._o because_o god_n make_v the_o world_n in_o six_o day_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o 2._o because_o he_o therefore_o bless_a the_o rest-day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o because_o therein_o he_o have_v rest_v so_o as_o by_o this_o analysis_n we_o see_v that_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v command_v to_o be_v keep_v in_o this_o manner_n not_o as_o the_o seven_o but_o as_o the_o rest_n day_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o that_o we_o see_v be_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o duty_n because_o god_n have_v rest_v therein_o and_o because_o he_o therefore_o bless_v and_o sanctify_v the_o rest-day_n i_o have_v be_v the_o long_o upon_o this_o point_n concern_v the_o sabbath_n because_o it_o receive_v so_o much_o a_o like_a measure_n in_o the_o world_n with_o this_o of_o infant-baptisme_n and_o the_o clear_n of_o the_o one_o will_v help_v we_o in_o the_o other_o for_o in_o like_a manner_n also_o in_o this_o of_o abraham_n covenant_n there_o be_v 1._o a_o duty_n command_v viz._n to_o keep_v that_o covenant_n viz._n the_o token_n sign_n or_o seal_v thereof_o which_o be_v a_o part_n of_o it_o which_o abraham_n and_o his_o seed_n be_v and_o be_v to_o keep_v 2._o a_o declaration_n or_o explication_n what_o be_v then_o the_o token_n of_o it_o namely_o that_o the_o manchild_n be_v circumcise_v and_o in_o case_n the_o child_n be_v not_o circumcise_v that_o the_o covenant_n be_v break_v by_o all_o which_o we_o see_v that_o notwithstanding_o the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v specify_v then_o to_o be_v the_o circumcise_n of_o the_o child_n which_o be_v now_o abolish_v yet_o the_o command_n of_o keep_v the_o covenant_n in_o perform_v that_o which_o be_v the_o token_n of_o it_o be_v still_o in_o force_n and_o lie_v on_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n even_o his_o spiritual_a seed_n to_o this_o day_n second_o for_o answer_v further_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o baptism_n be_v now_o in_o the_o room_n of_o circumcision_n and_o be_v the_o very_a same_o for_o substance_n to_o we_o as_o circumcision_n be_v to_o they_o before_o christ_n namely_o the_o token_n and_o seal_n of_o that_o covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n and_o his_o seed_n as_o appear_v gal._n 3._o 27_o 29._o as_o many_o of_o you_o as_o have_v be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n have_v put_v on_o christ_n and_o if_o you_o be_v christ_n then_o be_v you_o abraham_n seed_n and_o heir_n according_a to_o the_o promise_n by_o which_o we_o see_v as_o be_v before_o observe_v that_o whatever_o we_o have_v as_o abraham_n seed_n we_o have_v it_o all_o in_o christ_n and_o what_o we_o have_v in_o christ_n we_o have_v it_o all_o as_o abraham_n seed_n and_o that_o we_o be_v baptize_v into_o christ_n that_o be_v our_o initiation_n into_o christ_n and_o whatever_o we_o have_v in_o christ_n and_o whatever_o we_o have_v as_o abraham_n seed_n be_v seal_v unto_o we_o in_o baptism_n by_o which_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o as_o circumcision_n be_v to_o they_o so_o baptism_n now_o to_o we_o be_v the_o token_n and_o seal_n of_o that_o covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n and_o his_o seed_n a_o further_a proof_n of_o this_o we_o have_v also_o coll._n 2._o 11._o in_o who_o also_o you_o be_v circumcise_v with_o the_o circumcision_n make_v without_o hand_n in_o put_v off_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n by_o the_o circumcision_n of_o christ_n be_v bury_v with_o he_o in_o baptism_n wherein_o also_o you_o be_v rise_v with_o he_o where_o we_o see_v first_o that_o the_o thing_n signify_v or_o seal_v or_o the_o spiritual_a fruit_n of_o circumcision_n be_v the_o circumcision_n of_o the_o heart_n in_o put_v off_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o that_o the_o very_a same_o be_v the_o spiritual_a fruit_n of_o baptism_n signify_v and_o seal_v thereby_o namely_o a_o death_n and_o burial_n to_o sin_n and_o a_o spiritual_a resurrection_n which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o circumcision_n make_v without_o hand_n in_o put_v off_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n second_o that_o whereas_o christ_n be_v circumcise_v and_o that_o not_o because_o he_o have_v a_o body_n of_o sin_n of_o his_o own_o to_o be_v put_v off_o but_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o

that_o this_o command_n of_o god_n be_v primary_o fix_v upon_o the_o general_a duty_n namely_o the_o covenant_n to_o be_v keep_v and_o not_o upon_o this_o or_o that_o way_n of_o keep_v either_o by_o

by_o the_o same_o authority_n shall_v be_v make_v the_o token_n of_o the_o same_o covenant_n will_v be_v the_o duty_n in_o stead_n thereof_o mark_v the_o word_n he_o do_v not_o say_v thou_o shall_v therefore_o circumcise_v every_o manchild_n among_o you_o as_o a_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n between_o i_o and_o you_o for_o so_o have_v that_o be_v make_v the_o token_n for_o perpetuity_n to_o have_v continue_v so_o long_o as_o the_o covenant_n itself_o but_o first_o in_o general_a he_o say_v thou_o shall_v keep_v my_o covenant_n therefore_o thou_o and_o thy_o seed_n after_o thou_o in_o their_o generation_n that_o be_v they_o shall_v observe_v and_o perform_v the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n whatever_o that_o prove_v to_o be_v and_o in_o the_o second_o place_n he_o add_v this_o

manchild_n have_v break_v my_o covenant_n therefore_o as_o i_o say_v as_o for_o circumcision_n that_o be_v a_o duty_n only_o upon_o those_o word_n declare_v that_o to_o be_v then_o the_o token_n circumcision_n be_v now_o abolish_v yet_o the_o command_n of_o keep_v the_o token_n of_o abraham_n covenant_n be_v still_o in_o force_n and_o bind_v to_o abraham_n spiritual_a seed_n in_o their_o

sabbath_n therefore_o those_o who_o deny_v infant-baptism_n oftentimes_o deny_v the_o sabbath_n and_o not_o without_o cause_n for_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n of_o both_o and_o we_o may_v illustrate_v the_o one_o by_o the_o other_o the_o lord_n intend_v in_o time_n to_o change_v the_o day_n from_o the_o seven_o to_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o he_o intend_v in_o time_n to_o change_v the_o token_n of_o abraham_n covenant_n therefore_o in_o the_o four_o commandment_n also_o the_o command_n be_v not_o primary_o fix_v upon_o the_o seven_o or_o any_o day_n to_o be_v
