A67315	Baptism anatomized being propounded in five queries, viz. I. What water-baptism is? II. What is the end for which it was instituted? III. What giveth right to it? IV. Who are the true administrators of it? V. Whether it be lawful for a man to baptize himself? Wherein the right that the infants of believers have to water-baptism is vindicated: the duty of believing parents in that matter, asserted: and that by the contrary tenet and practise, they ought themselves to be excluded from the Lords-Supper, is plainly and fully proved. And wherein also is proved, that the covenant which God made with Abraham, Gen. 17. and with Israel Exod. ch. 19. and Deut. 29. are the Covenant of Grace in Christ, and not part of the covenant of works made with Adam before his fall.

half_a of_o the_o body_n into_o the_o water_n be_v to_o walk_v by_o a_o mere_a implicit_a faith_n because_o some_o learned_a in_o the_o tongue_n say_v the_o word_n signify_v to_o dip_v or_o plunge_v

another_o scripture_n be_v urge_v by_o the_o anabaptist_n to_o prove_v that_o john_n baptise_a at_o enon_n because_o there_o be_v much_o water_n answ_n the_o word_n enon_n be_v the_o name_n of_o a_o

another_o reason_n why_o there_o be_v say_v to_o be_v much_o water_n at_o enon_n with_o respect_n to_o the_o part_n of_o the_o country_n be_v forty_o two_o mile_n northward_o from_o jerusalem_n so_o
