A79489	A Christian plea for infants baptisme. Or a confutation of some things written by A.R. in his treatise, entitutled, The second part of the vanitie and childishnesse of infants baptisme. In the answer whereof, the lawfulnesse of infants baptisme is defended, and the arguments against it disproved, by sufficient grounds and forcible reasons, drawn from the sweet fountains of holy Scripture.

joh._n 1.29_o but_o our_o chief_a point_n be_v not_o here_o about_o ceremonial_a circumstantial_a shadow_n for_o we_o all_o grant_v that_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o old_a law_n be_v cease_v and_o

further_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v concern_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n that_o their_o conformity_n unto_o the_o law_n of_o god_n do_v real_o demonstrate_v unto_o man_n that_o they_o be_v spiritual_o holy_a and_o so_o now_o the_o conformity_n of_o god_n people_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n do_v give_v sufficient_a demonstration_n of_o their_o holiness_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n whereby_o they_o be_v to_o judge_v they_o to_o be_v communicable_a person_n in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n and_o though_o the_o uncircumcised_a be_v then_o unholy_a as_o you_o speak_v 9_o speak_v pag._n 6._o lin_v 9_o yet_o they_o be_v such_o uncircumcised_a who_o be_v not_o to_o be_v judge_v circumcise_v in_o their_o heart_n and_o though_o person_n than_o be_v circumcise_v both_o in_o heart_n and_o

yet_o retain_v their_o visible_a holiness_n still_o you_o shall_v also_o mind_v that_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n after_o the_o law_n be_v give_v in_o mount_n sinai_n many_o of_o they_o be_v

they_o 33.29_o they_o deut._n 7.6_o &_o 26.18_o 19_o &_o 33.29_o and_o therefore_o your_o allege_v that_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o circumcise_a and_o the_o uncircumcised_a and_o that_o the_o circumcise_a israelites_n may_v not_o then_o company_n with_o the_o uncircumcised_a heathen_n be_v of_o no_o force_n against_o this_o truth_n even_o that_o the_o infant_n of_o believer_n have_v that_o holiness_n which_o accompany_v faith_n with_o some_o uncircumcised_a person_n may_v be_v accompany_v with_o and_o some_o circumcised_a person_n may_v not_o be_v accompany_v with_o for_o though_o circumcise_a person_n be_v not_o to_o accompany_v with_o the_o uncircumcised_a yet_o it_o be_v mean_v of_o those_o uncircumcised_a person_n who_o be_v alien_n from_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o israel_n and_o stranger_n from_o the_o covenant_n of_o promise_n and_o not_o of_o those_o who_o be_v then_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v of_o all_o uncircumcised_a person_n for_o then_o the_o parent_n shall_v not_o have_v keep_v company_n with_o their_o infant_n before_o they_o be_v circumcise_v but_o be_v to_o deliver_v they_o to_o other_o uncircumcised_a person_n to_o keep_v till_o the_o eight_o day_n wherein_o they_o be_v circumcise_v and_o then_o the_o uncircumcised_a believe_a gentile_n be_v not_o to_o be_v circumcise_v by_o the_o circumcise_a but_o by_o the_o uncircumcised_a which_o to_o dream_v be_v mere_a foolishness_n and_o therefore_o it_o appear_v that_o your_o collection_n have_v no_o foot_n against_o holy_a infant_n to_o the_o point_n then_o see_v that_o the_o infant_n of_o believer_n though_o uncircumcised_a may_v be_v accompany_v with_o in_o the_o time_n of_o their_o uncircumcision_n and_o that_o by_o the_o circumcise_a it_o evident_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o they_o and_o the_o heathen_a infant_n of_o uncircumcised_a unbeliever_n and_o see_v the_o uncircumcised_a infant_n of_o believer_n may_v be_v lawful_o accompany_v with_o and_o be_v different_a then_o from_o unbeliever_n it_o be_v apparent_a that_o they_o be_v holy_a then_o though_o uncircumcised_a and_o see_v that_o believer_n infant_n though_o uncircumcised_a be_v holy_a in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n and_o distinguish_v by_o their_o holiness_n from_o the_o infant_n of_o unbeliever_n and_o see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v still_o one_o and_o the_o same_o and_o that_o the_o ceremonial_a holiness_n be_v cease_v it_o plain_o argue_v that_o when_o the_o apostle_n paul●aketh_v ●aketh_z in_o 1_o

demonstrate_v those_o person_n who_o have_v it_o to_o have_v right_a to_o baptism_n and_o as_o circumcision_n do_v not_o give_v faith_n to_o the_o infant_n of_o the_o church_n nor_o add_v the_o infant_n of_o the_o church_n to_o the_o church_n no_o more_o than_o any_o other_o person_n but_o rather_o confirm_v they_o in_o it_o so_o baptism_n now_o do_v not_o bring_v regeneration_n or_o faith_n unto_o such_o or_o unto_o any_o other_o person_n as_o many_o fond_o imagine_v neither_o do_v it_o add_v they_o to_o the_o church_n but_o rather_o confirm_v they_o therein_o touch_v peter_n vision_n
