phil._n 2._o 3._o though_o the_o act_n of_o faith_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o believer_n yet_o the_o habit_n of_o faith_n be_v god_n for_o the_o believer_n be_v whole_o passive_a in_o the_o reception_n of_o grace_n and_o there_o must_v be_v habit_n before_o there_o can_v be_v act_n there_o must_v be_v the_o root_n of_o grace_n before_o there_o can_v be_v the_o fruit_n of_o grace_n and_o a_o young_a infant_n be_v as_o capable_a of_o receive_v the_o habit_n of_o grace_n wherein_o the_o subject_n be_v whole_o passive_a as_o a_o adult_n person_n be_v 4._o john_n the_o baptist_n can_v never_o have_v leap_v in_o his_o mother_n womb_n for_o joy_n have_v he_o not_o know_v god_n in_o christ_n the_o only_a true_a object_n of_o joy_n sir_n you_o have_v measure_v these_o profound_a mystery_n by_o the_o rule_n of_o carnal_a reason_n which_o be_v a_o very_a false_a rule_n to_o measure_v it_o by_o the_o faith_n of_o god_n do_v not_o stand_v in_o the_o wisdom_n of_o men._n 2._o say_v mr._n k._n in_o p._n 14._o we_o say_v the_o same_o thing_n with_o worthy_a mr._n marshal_n in_o pag._n 78._o of_o his_o book_n which_o you_o recite_v in_o the_o 24_o pag._n of_o you_o viz._n that_o union_n betwixt_o christ_n and_o the_o soul_n be_v full_o accomplish_v by_o christ_n give_v the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n to_o we_o even_o before_o we_o can_v act_n faith_n in_o the_o reception_n of_o he_o because_o by_o this_o grace_n or_o spirit_n of_o faith_n the_o soul_n be_v incline_v to_o a_o active_a receive_n of_o christ_n pray_v mr._n k._n do_v worthy_a mr._n marshal_n say_v no_o more_o if_o he_o do_v how_o dare_v you_o be_v so_o unjust_a to_o deal_v thus_o unfair_o by_o mr._n marshal_n as_o to_o leave_v out_o the_o conclusion_n of_o his_o sentence_n without_o a_o &c._n &c._n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v no_o more_o pray_v reader_n look_v into_o the_o page_n mr._n k._n have_v quote_v both_o of_o mr._n marshal_n book_n and_o i_o and_o there_o you_o will_v find_v the_o conclusion_n of_o his_o sentence_n thus_o viz._n and_o no_o doubt_n christ_n be_v thus_o unite_a to_o many_o infant_n which_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n because_o they_o be_v not_o come_v to_o the_o year_n of_o understanding_n be_v this_o to_o say_v the_o same_o thing_n with_o worthy_a mr._n marshal_n but_o this_o be_v as_o true_a as_o that_o i_o spend_v 20_o leave_n in_o my_o former_a book_n to_o prove_v that_o which_o no_o body_n deny_v but_o pray_v what_o have_v mr._n marshal_v say_v in_o this_o to_o destroy_v or_o enervate_v the_o notion_n of_o habitual_a faith_n in_o elect_a die_a infant_n for_o though_o he_o have_v not_o use_v the_o very_a same_o word_n yet_o it_o be_v to_o the_o same_o effect_n and_o carry_v a_o equivalent_a in_o it_o with_o that_o of_o habitual_a faith_n now_o if_o mr._n k._n say_v the_o same_o thing_n with_o worthy_a mr._n marshal_n than_o mr._n k._n and_o i_o be_o agree_v 3._o say_v mr._n k._n be_v regeneration_n in_o your_o infant_n that_o be_v regenerate_v the_o fruit_n or_o product_n of_o this_o spirit_n of_o faith_n or_o habit_n which_o you_o plead_v for_o to_o be_v infuse_v into_o they_o when_o infant_n sure_o if_o they_o have_v any_o such_o habit_n when_o infant_n they_o need_v no_o other_o inspire_v habit_n when_o they_o be_v grow_v up_o where_o the_o habit_n and_o principle_n of_o grace_n be_v once_o infuse_v into_o a_o soul_n they_o can_v never_o be_v lose_v neither_o shall_v they_o need_v any_o other_o inspire_v habit_n of_o grace_n when_o they_o be_v grow_v person_n for_o where_o these_o habit_n be_v once_o plant_v they_o can_v never_o be_v destroy_v for_o once_o in_o christ_n by_o regeneration_n and_o for_o ever_o in_o christ_n by_o justification_n and_o sanctification_n for_o that_o soul_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o grace_n and_o have_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n in_o he_o and_o that_o life_n can_v never_o be_v lose_v because_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n it_o be_v in_o the_o keep_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o to_o speak_v with_o reverence_n christ_n himself_o may_v as_o soon_o be_v lose_v as_o that_o 2._o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o many_o child_n of_o believer_n that_o do_v not_o die_v in_o their_o infancy_n have_v have_v the_o habit_n of_o grace_n infuse_v into_o their_o soul_n in_o their_o infancy_n and_o that_o may_v be_v the_o reason_n why_o so_o many_o of_o they_o when_o they_o be_v grow_v person_n can_v tell_v they_o have_v grace_n but_o know_v not_o how_o nor_o when_o they_o come_v by_o it_o no_o doubt_n timothy_n have_v grace_n infuse_v into_o he_o in_o his_o infancy_n because_o we_o read_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o his_o conversion_n no_o more_o than_o we_o do_v of_o his_o baptism_n wherefore_o both_o may_v be_v effect_v in_o his_o infancy_n be_v the_o son_n of_o a_o godly_a mother_n but_o the_o apostle_n paul_n can_v tell_v the_o time_n of_o his_o own_o conversion_n and_o also_o his_o baptism_n act_v 9_o 3._o all_o infant_n be_v conceive_v in_o sin_n psal_n 51.5_o there_o be_v all_o the_o habit_n or_o seed_n of_o sin_n in_o a_o infant_n in_o its_o first_o conception_n or_o formation_n even_o as_o many_o as_o there_o be_v in_o a_o adult_n sinner_n for_o all_o have_v sin_v and_o come_v short_a of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n therefore_o elect_v die_v infant_n must_v be_v regenerate_v they_o must_v be_v beget_v and_o bear_v of_o god_n for_o god_n will_v be_v a_o reconcile_a father_n to_o none_o but_o they_o which_o he_o spiritual_o beget_v for_o god_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_a the_o world_n to_o himself_o not_o impute_v their_o trespass_n unto_o they_o thus_o you_o see_v as_o young_a infant_n be_v bring_v into_o the_o same_o balance_n of_o original_a gild_n and_o pollution_n with_o adult_n old_a sinner_n so_o they_o must_v be_v bring_v into_o the_o same_o balance_n of_o justification_n adoption_n and_o sanctification_n with_o elect_a adult_n believer_n or_o they_o can_v never_o be_v save_v 4._o mr._n k._n do_v own_o that_o all_o infant_n be_v under_o the_o guilt_n and_o stain_n of_o original_a sin_n by_o nature_n and_o he_o also_o say_v we_o do_v believe_v that_o all_o those_o die_a infant_n who_o be_v save_v god_n do_v in_o some_o way_n or_o another_o which_o be_v not_o know_v to_o we_o sanctify_v they_o for_o no_o unclean_a thing_n can_v enter_v into_o the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n but_o this_o viz._n child_n must_v be_v justify_v and_o acquit_v from_o the_o guilt_n of_o original_a sin_n and_o second_o they_o must_v be_v sanctify_v and_o cleanse_v from_o the_o filth_n and_o pollution_n of_o sin_n they_o must_v be_v regenerate_v and_o make_v partaker_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n 2_o pet._n 1.4_o for_o without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v the_o lord_n the_o fall_v angel_n may_v as_o well_o expect_v to_o be_v save_v as_o any_o unregenerate_a soul_n may_v either_o old_a or_o young_a that_o die_v in_o that_o state_n and_o condition_n 2._o all_o child_n be_v elect_v and_o choose_v of_o god_n that_o be_v save_v die_v in_o their_o infancy_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v have_v the_o grace_n of_o faith_n to_o unite_v they_o to_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o faith_n that_o be_v peculiar_a to_o god_n elect_n titus_n 1.1_o for_o all_o mankind_n by_o nature_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o unbelief_n for_o it_o be_v that_o sin_n that_o bring_v man_n into_o a_o state_n of_o condemnation_n for_o have_v our_o first_o parent_n believe_v god_n when_o he_o tell_v they_o if_o they_o eat_v of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a they_o shall_v die_v man_n have_v never_o fall_v into_o a_o state_n of_o sin_n and_o condemnation_n now_o the_o opposite_a grace_n to_o the_o sin_n of_o unbelief_n be_v faith_n and_o habitual_a faith_n by_o the_o powerful_a agency_n of_o the_o bless_a spirit_n of_o grace_n be_v sufficient_a to_o subdue_v and_o conquer_v original_a unbelief_n and_o to_o justify_v and_o sanctify_v they_o by_o the_o application_n of_o the_o righteousness_n blood_n and_o merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o their_o soul_n it_o be_v not_o man_n act_v faith_n that_o justify_v he_o but_o it_o be_v the_o habit_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o do_v that_o the_o act_n of_o faith_n in_o a_o sense_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o creature_n but_o the_o habit_n of_o faith_n be_v god_n own_o free_a act_n in_o the_o creature_n wherefore_o if_o man_n can_v be_v justify_v without_o his_o act_n of_o grace_n than_o justification_n depend_v on_o the_o act_n of_o the_o creature_n though_o a_o believer_n may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v a_o hand_n in_o his_o own_o sanctification_n yet_o he_o have_v none_o at_o all_o in_o his_o
