though_o they_o have_v no_o positive_a right_n unto_o baptism_n §_o 2._o the_o antipaedo_fw-la baptist_n main_a ground_n on_o which_o they_o build_v their_o opinion_n of_o the_o unlawfulness_n of_o infant_n baptism_n take_v in_o its_o full_a strength_n lie_v thus_o that_o which_o no_o one_o text_n in_o all_o the_o scripture_n either_o command_n or_o give_v example_n of_o that_o it_o unlawful_a but_o in_o all_o the_o scripture_n there_o be_v no_o one_o text_n that_o either_o command_n or_o give_v a_o example_n of_o infant_n baptism_n therefore_o it_o be_v unlawful_a §_o 3._o in_o contradiction_n to_o this_o ground_n and_o to_o show_v the_o falseness_n of_o it_o i_o thus_o argue_v against_o the_o first_o part_n of_o it_o if_o nothing_o be_v lawful_a to_o be_v practise_v but_o what_o some_o text_n of_o scripture_n do_v command_v or_o give_v example_n of_o than_o nothing_o will_v be_v lawful_a to_o be_v believe_v but_o what_o some_o text_n of_o scripture_n do_v affirm_v for_o it_o be_v as_o necessary_a that_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o scripture_n affirmation_n for_o what_o we_o believe_v as_o a_o scripture_n command_n or_o example_n for_o what_o we_o practice_n and_o this_o i_o think_v no_o antipaedo_fw-la baptist_n will_v deny_v and_o if_o so_o than_o many_o thing_n that_o we_o now_o believe_v and_o practice_n and_o shall_v become_v heretic_n and_o schismatic_n if_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v and_o practise_v they_o shall_v become_v unlawful_a to_o we_o because_o there_o be_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n not_o one_o text_n that_o affirm_v the_o one_o or_o command_n or_o give_v example_n of_o the_o other_o as_o i_o shall_v show_v in_o both_o particular_n §_o 4._o and_o first_o in_o matter_n of_o faith_n first_o that_o the_o son_n as_o god_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o father_n this_o we_o believe_v and_o i_o hope_v the_o antipaedobaptist_n do_v not_o disbelieve_v it_o and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o one_o scripture_n that_o do_v express_o affirm_v it_o so_o that_o as_o man_n he_o be_v circumcise_v this_o we_o believe_v and_o our_o antipaedobaptist_n do_v not_o deny_v and_o yet_o as_o we_o have_v already_o note_v there_o be_v no_o one_o scripture_n that_o do_v express_o affirm_v it_o §_o 5._o again_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v god_n this_o we_o believe_v and_o i_o will_v hope_v our_o antipaedobaptist_n do_v believe_v it_o too_o and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o one_o scripture_n that_o do_v express_o affirm_v it_o also_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n proceed_v from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n this_o we_o believe_v and_o our_o antipaedobaptist_n do_v not_o that_o i_o know_v deny_v it_o and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o one_o text_n of_o scripture_n that_o do_v express_o affirm_v it_o §_o 6._o three_o that_o the_o three_o

no_o one_o text_n of_o scripture_n do_v express_o command_v or_o exemplify_v so_o long_o as_o we_o can_v deduce_v that_o practice_n from_o any_o one_o or_o more_o text_n of_o scripture_n compare_v
