An essay tending to issue the controversie about infant baptism from the parity, at least, of Scripture-light concerning infant-baptim [sic] with that of women's being admitted to the Lord's Supper, shewing that there is as good grounds out of Scripture for the one as for the other : occasioned by a tender made by H.D. in his late book against infant-baptism who is willing to put the whole controversie concerning it, upon this issue : together with an answer to the most material things in that book /

which_o i_o hold_v their_o parent_n ought_v to_o do_v 4._o but_o that_o tree_n also_o be_v capable_a of_o circumcision_n i_o suppose_v you_o will_v not_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v if_o you_o diligent_o

out_o of_o maimony_n upon_o that_o scripture_n it_o be_v plain_a hence_o that_o the_o uncircumcision_n and_o circumcision_n here_o be_v in_o reference_n to_o the_o impurity_n of_o the_o fruit_n of_o

of_o circumcision_n then_o circumcision_n be_v administer_v to_o all_o abraham_n natural_a seed_n without_o any_o profession_n of_o faith_n repentance_n and_o regeneration_n at_o ergo._n let_v reasonable_a man_n judge_v of_o the_o inconsequence_n of_o this_o proposition_n have_v before_o read_v what_o i_o have_v answer_v to_o the_o particular_n in_o it_o i_o now_o come_v to_o your_o six_o proof_n 6._o circumcision_n be_v to_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o temporal_a blessing_n and_o benefit_n to_o be_v enjoy_v in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n whereas_o baptism_n be_v to_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o many_o spiritual_a benefit_n viz._n remission_n of_o sin_n justification_n sanctification_n and_o eternal_a salvation_n to_o which_o i_o reply_v 1._o and_o why_o be_v it_o not_o a_o seal_n rather_o than_o a_o sign_n or_o at_o least_o as_o well_o as_o a_o sign_n to_o assure_v they_o of_o the_o promise_n of_o that_o land_n unto_o they_o be_v it_o not_o a_o seal_n of_o god_n covenant_n to_o they_o as_o have_v be_v show_v before_o and_o be_v not_o baptism_n now_o the_o like_a do_v it_o not_o seal_v outward_a temporal_a blessing_n and_o benefit_n promise_v though_o implicit_o in_o the_o covenant_n as_o well_o as_o circumcision_n do_v 2._o and_o be_v circumcision_n a_o sign_n and_o a_o seal_n only_o of_o canaan_n unto_o they_o you_o by_o and_o by_o after_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v in_o some_o thing_n a_o analogy_n betwixt_o circumcision_n and_o baptism_n to_o wit_n both_o of_o they_o signify_v heart-circumcision_n and_o a_o initiate_a into_o the_o church_n p._n 223._o and_o why_o do_v you_o not_o express_v they_o also_o when_o you_o say_v circumcision_n be_v to_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o temporal_a blessing_n and_o benefit_n to_o be_v enjoy_v in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n as_o if_o it_o have_v signify_v only_o those_o temporal_a benefit_n to_o they_o this_o seem_v not_o fair_a deal_n but_o rather_o a_o impose_v upon_o your_o inadvertent_n reader_n and_o have_v you_o fair_o grant_v this_o soon_o it_o will_v have_v spare_v you_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o needless_a labour_n circumcision_n then_o by_o your_o own_o grant_n signify_v heart-circumcision_n and_o initiate_a into_o the_o visible_a church_n even_o as_o baptism_n also_o do_v which_o be_v that_o we_o plead_v for_o and_o if_o it_o do_v signify_v so_o then_o both_o the_o parent_n and_o children-circumcised_n have_v a_o advantage_n hereby_o to_o seek_v unto_o god_n to_o circumcise_v their_o heart_n who_o have_v signify_v and_o seal_v it_o to_o they_o in_o that_o holy_a ordinance_n 3._o if_o circumcision_n signify_v heart-circumcision_n to_o those_o that_o be_v circumcise_a than_o it_o must_v also_o signify_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o justification_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o sanctification_n also_o and_o consequent_o eternal_a salvation_n follow_v those_o benefit_n which_o they_o be_v in_o that_o order_n to_o look_v after_o of_o which_o canaan_n be_v a_o type_n unto_o they_o and_o then_o what_o substantial_a difference_n be_v there_o between_o baptism_n and_o circumcision_n this_o be_v to_o seek_v a_o knot_n in_o a_o bulrush_n as_o the_o proverb_n be_v 4._o to_o wave_v the_o force_n of_o your_o own_o grant_v you_o tell_v we_o though_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o initiate_a into_o the_o church_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o different-church_n different_a subject_n and_o church-member_n upon_o different_a ground_n and_o to_o different_a end_n etc._n etc._n to_o which_o i_o return_v what_o if_o it_o be_v a_o different_a church_n in_o some_o circumstance_n be_v it_o not_o a_o church_n of_o god_n a_o church_n of_o god_n institute_v and_o constitute_v do_v it_o not_o consist_v of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n make_v with_o abraham_n and_o afterward_o continue_v unto_o his_o posterity_n into_o which_o the_o christian_a gentile_n be_v ingraft_v and_o into_o which_o the_o jew_n and_o israelite_n shall_v be_v again_o ingraft_v in_o these_o
