sure_a when_o zacheus_n believe_v in_o christ_n he_o be_v a_o proper_a subject_n of_o gospel_n baptism_n so_o be_v all_o that_o believe_v who_o be_v in_o his_o house_n but_o the_o text_n do_v not_o

of_o they_o receive_v remission_n of_o sin_n for_o many_o of_o they_o that_o die_v go_v to_o heaven_n answ_n 1._o your_o first_o argument_n have_v as_o much_o in_o it_o for_o the_o baptise_v of_o

and_o the_o lord's-supper_n administer_v to_o they_o nay_o and_o it_o follow_v also_o that_o you_o ought_v only_o to_o baptize_v those_o child_n of_o believer_n that_o die_v or_o such_o that_o you_o
