As also that the baptisme of infants or children is warrantable, and agreeable to the word of God. Where the perpetuity of the estate of Christs Church in the world, and the everlastingnesse of the covenant of Almighty God to Abraham are set forth as maine grounds, and sundry other particular things are controverted and discussed.

bear_v of_o he_o and_o if_o abraham_n be_v honour_v by_o almighty_a god_n to_o be_v call_v their_o father_n also_o he_o be_v a_o father_n to_o all_o that_o believe_v he_o of_o old_a yea_o always_o
