distrust_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o preserve_v of_o they_o when_o he_o have_v by_o the_o same_o providence_n take_v you_o away_o from_o they_o but_o if_o you_o have_v a_o command_n for_o

a_o man_n so_o well_o verse_v in_o the_o scripture_n as_o you_o pretend_v to_o be_v that_o you_o shall_v not_o know_v that_o the_o apostle_n be_v in_o the_o first_o age_n of_o the_o church_n and_o that_o where_o ever_o they_o come_v it_o be_v their_o work_n to_o preach_v and_o convert_v and_o baptise_v such_o as_o they_o do_v bring_v into_o the_o church_n by_o their_o preach_v and_o this_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o church_n and_o adult_a person_n have_v no_o need_n of_o godfathers_n and_o godmothers_n and_o you_o know_v the_o apostle_n bid_v we_o watch_v over_o one_o another_o and_o

so_o the_o apostle_n speak_v to_o the_o beleiver_n that_o shall_v not_o join_v with_o heathenism_n or_o jewdism_n say_v he_o the_o promise_n be_v to_o you_o and_o to_o your_o seed_n and_o if_o so_o

i_o must_v confess_v you_o have_v give_v such_o a_o argument_n as_o i_o believe_v some_o thousand_o of_o your_o church_n can_v not_o have_v give_v and_o i_o will_v take_v some_o time_n to_o clear_v

if_o i_o be_v not_o in_o the_o right_n of_o it_o if_o it_o be_v not_o too_o much_o for_o you_o dissen_n well_o but_o i_o tell_v you_o there_o be_v some_o thing_n in_o our_o discourse_n that_o must_v be_v particular_a but_o i_o will_v answer_v you_o and_o your_o church_n in_o these_o thing_n in_o general_n because_o you_o desire_v it_o and_o first_o you_o say_v the_o church_n be_v make_v up_o of_o adult_a person_n which_o be_v true_a but_o what_o be_v the_o sign_n of_o their_o church-ship_n church-m_a why_o it_o be_v baptism_n they_o be_v baptise_a into_o the_o church_n and_o so_o become_v

before_o a_o church-member_n and_o consequent_o before_o baptism_n for_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v church_v before_o baptise_a nor_o baptise_a before_o they_o believe_v and_o if_o so_o how_o be_v infant_n capable_a of_o be_v church_n member_n church-m_a it_o be_v true_a the_o word_n run_v so_o but_o yet_o it_o do_v not_o exclude_v believer_n child_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o other_o to_o comfort_v they_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v all_o but_o that_o god_n will_v plant_v and_o call_v more_o church_n to_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o so_o the_o number_n shall_v be_v increase_v and_o further_o it_o be_v to_o comfort_v the_o suce_fw-la eding_fw-mi church_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v viz._n the_o promise_n to_o they_o and_o their_o seed_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o then_o

here_o you_o comply_v with_o i_o that_o the_o covenant_n be_v to_o seed_n seed_n and_o if_o so_o in_o the_o law_n why_o not_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n dissen_n well_o i_o ask_v you_o how_o this_o covenant_n run_v you_o know_v that_o god_n say_v to_o abraham_n but_o though_o thy_o seed_n be_v as_o the_o star_n of_o heaven_n yet_o in_o isaac_n shall_v it_o be_v bless_v be_v not_o ishmael_n the_o son_n of_o abraham_n and_o do_v not_o he_o pray_v for_o ishmael_n well_o say_v the_o lord_n i_o have_v hear_v thou_o for_o ishmael_n i_o will_v make_v he_o a_o great_a nation_n but_o nevertheless_o my_o covenant_n will_v i_o establish_v with_o isaac_n and_o in_o isaac_n shall_v thy_o seed_n be_v bless_v so_o that_o we_o see_v out_o of_o believe_a abraham_n there_o come_v a_o

chapter_n of_o roman_n now_o will_v you_o allow_v isaac_n to_o be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n or_o not_o church-m_a yes_o certain_o isaac_n be_v a_o type_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o covenant_n that_o be_v make_v with_o isaac_n and_o his_o seed_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o covenant_n make_v with_o believer_n and_o their_o seed_n in_o christ_n dissen_n well_o then_o as_o the_o covenant_n be_v

there_o be_v no_o church_n that_o can_v claim_v superiority_n over_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n but_o that_o church_n that_o can_v claim_v infallibility_n and_o if_o

you_o will_v rather_o trust_v to_o man_n when_o as_o god_n have_v say_v i_o will_v give_v my_o spirit_n to_o they_o that_o ask_v it_o and_o our_o saviour_n say_v when_o you_o come_v before_o man_n
