A31094	A briefe answer to A discourse, lately written by one P.B., to prove baptisme under the defection of Antichrist, to be the ordinance of Iesus Christ, and the baptizing of infants to be agreeable to the word of God wherein is declared ... that true baptisme and a false church are inconsistent, and cannot stand together : and also maintained, that the baptizing of infants hath no authority from the Scriptures / by R. Barrow.	Barrow, Robert, d. 1697.	1642 (1642)	Wing B967; ESTC R12474	18,380	26

antichrist_n have_v be_v thus_o universal_a he_o say_v the_o waldenses_n who_o appear_v in_o the_o dawn_n of_o the_o day_n can_v not_o true_o have_v be_v call_v the_o first_o fruit_n unto_o god_n as_o he_o conceive_v they_o be_v pag._n 2._o we_o say_v so_o too_o and_o also_o firm_a that_o the_o visible_a church_n can_v not_o continue_v under_o that_o defection_n because_o it_o be_v say_v it_o be_v give_v to_o he_o to_o make_v war_n with_o the_o saint_n and_o to_o overcome_v they_o and_o if_o to_o overcome_v they_o they_o can_v not_o continue_v for_o if_o they_o have_v not_o continue_v than_o he_o do_v not_o overcome_v they_o and_o kill_v they_o with_o the_o sword_n as_o it_o be_v say_v he_o do_v rev._n 13.7.10_o compare_v with_o dan._n 7.21.25_o moreover_o it_o be_v say_v that_o those_o which_o worship_v the_o beast_n be_v such_o who_o name_n be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o lamb_n book_n of_o life_n therefore_o the_o visible_a church_n can_v not_o continue_v under_o that_o defection_n but_o if_o it_o do_v not_o there_o continue_v yet_o haply_o it_o may_v continue_v under_o the_o greek_n to_o this_o he_o answer_v that_o indeed_o the_o greek_n do_v not_o always_o subject_a themselves_o to_o the_o roman_a power_n yet_o be_v they_o very_o little_a short_a in_o defection_n in_o so_o much_o that_o according_a to_o the_o measure_n whereby_o the_o romanist_n be_v measure_v they_o will_v stand_v and_o fall_v together_o well_o but_o i_o demand_v although_o the_o church_n do_v not_o continue_v under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n nor_o yet_o under_o the_o greek_n whether_o he_o do_v not_o conceive_v that_o some_o man_n may_v be_v find_v able_a though_o he_o can_v himself_o to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o the_o the_o visible_a church_n have_v continue_v elsewhere_o in_o the_o world_n unto_o this_o he_o answer_v that_o he_o believe_v none_o can_v be_v find_v able_a to_o make_v any_o such_o continuance_n of_o the_o church_n to_o appear_v page_n 3._o if_o any_o can_v he_o will_v thank_v god_n for_o such_o a_o discovery_n and_o who_o then_o can_v believe_v his_o exposition_n of_o isaiah_n 9.7.59.21_o etc._n etc._n see_v that_o his_o own_o mouth_n testify_v that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v find_v able_a to_o make_v the_o truth_n thereof_o to_o appear_v and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o he_o have_v give_v a_o false_a interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n by_o he_o allege_v to_o prove_v the_o perpetuity_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n neither_o will_v he_o himself_o nor_o any_o other_o be_v able_a to_o clear_v he_o from_o the_o imputation_n of_o a_o false_a prophet_n and_o one_o that_o have_v speak_v presumptuous_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n deut._n 18.22_o therefore_o have_v thus_o confute_v himself_o in_o this_o point_n i_o think_v it_o a_o needless_a thing_n for_o i_o to_o spend_v any_o more_o time_n in_o the_o confutation_n of_o it_o but_o see_v he_o confess_v that_o none_o can_v be_v find_v able_a to_o make_v any_o such_o continuance_n of_o a_o visible_a church_n as_o he_o speak_v of_o to_o appear_v why_o be_v we_o by_o he_o blame_v for_o not_o believe_v such_o a_o continuance_n page_n 4._o and_o why_o be_v we_o so_o often_o charge_v for_o not_o believe_v the_o continuance_n thereof_o under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n pag._n 3.4.5_o and_o 9_o and_o why_o also_o be_v we_o accuse_v for_o make_v christ_n a_o widower_n in_o not_o believe_v a_o perpetual_a succession_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n of_o christ_n see_v he_o himself_o believe_v no_o man_n can_v prove_v the_o perpetual_a succession_n thereof_o what_o will_v he_o have_v we_o believe_v that_o which_o he_o can_v believe_v himself_o herein_o he_o be_v much_o more_o uncharitable_a than_o the_o pope_n who_o require_v none_o to_o believe_v what_o he_o and_o his_o church_n believe_v not_o if_o christ_n must_v be_v a_o widower_n except_o he_o have_v always_o a_o visible_a church_n in_o the_o world_n than_o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n out_o of_o the_o visible_a church_n because_o none_o can_v be_v save_v which_o be_v not_o first_o unite_v to_o and_o make_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o then_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o those_o believer_n which_o in_o all_o age_n have_v appear_v such_o as_o jerome_n of_o prague_n john_n hus_n etc._n etc._n who_o lose_v their_o life_n for_o the_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n and_o be_v never_o member_n of_o any_o true_a visible_a church_n i_o hope_v p._n b._n will_v not_o say_v that_o they_o perish_v in_o their_o sin_n and_o if_o they_o be_v save_v than_o be_v they_o espouse_v unto_o and_o unite_v to_o christ_n and_o if_o so_o than_o christ_n have_v and_o so_o may_v have_v a_o spouse_n although_o no_o visible_a church_n but_o p.b._n i_o conceive_v be_v so_o studious_a when_o he_o write_v his_o book_n to_o bring_v absurdity_n upon_o we_o that_o he_o altogether_o forget_v himself_o furthermore_o see_v he_o can_v believe_v that_o any_o can_v be_v find_v able_a to_o make_v the_o continuance_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n to_o appear_v and_o that_o as_o he_o say_v the_o administration_n of_o baptism_n do_v so_o depend_v thereupon_o that_o by_o no_o mean_n possible_a it_o can_v be_v have_v elsewhere_o without_o a_o special_a commission_n give_v from_o heaven_n for_o that_o purpose_n such_o as_o john_n the_o baptist_n have_v page_n 4._o and_o 6._o i_o demand_v where_o or_o of_o who_o p._n b._n receive_v his_o baptism_n from_o the_o visible_a church_n he_o receive_v it_o not_o for_o he_o know_v not_o where_o any_o such_o

for_o such_o a_o discovery_n page_n 3._o and_o 4._o belike_o than_o he_o receive_v it_o from_o one_o that_o have_v a_o special_a commission_n like_o to_o that_o of_o john_n the_o baptist_n at_o least_o by_o his_o discourse_n he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o think_v so_o but_o i_o know_v it_o will_v appear_v that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o bull_n but_o be_v unwilling_a to_o receive_v this_o confutation_n from_o himself_o or_o have_v begin_v a_o discourse_n so_o quick_o to_o finish_v it_o he_o proceed_v and_o tell_v we_o that_o see_v he_o believe_v that_o none_o can_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o the_o visible_a church_n have_v continue_v from_o under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n than_o it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a that_o it_o have_v continue_v under_o that_o defection_n page_n 3._o but_o i_o demand_v how_o that_o can_v be_v probable_a see_v that_o but_o a_o little_a before_o he_o tell_v we_o and_o also_o prove_v that_o the_o defection_n and_o fall_v away_o under_o antichrist_n be_v very_o great_a and_o marvellous_a universal_a and_o therefore_o be_v the_o waldenses_n who_o appear_v in_o the_o dawn_n of_o the_o day_n not_o unfit_o call_v the_o first_o fruit_n unto_o god_n for_o they_o can_v not_o be_v the_o first_o if_o there_o have_v be_v a_o continuance_n page_n 2._o but_o he_o say_v 2_o thes._n 2.4_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o son_n of_o perdition_n who_o exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o that_o be_v call_v god_n or_o that_o be_v worship_v sit_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n show_v himself_o that_o he_o be_v god_n and_o therefore_o the_o church_n have_v continue_v under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n what_o be_v this_o but_o i_o sir_n no_o sir_n but_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o temple_n here_o speak_v of_o wherein_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n sit_v and_o be_v worship_v can_v be_v take_v to_o be_v the_o church_n of_o god_n or_o that_o temple_n of_o the_o live_a god_n whereof_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o head_n ephes._n 1.22_o and_o wherein_o god_n himself_o dwell_v and_o walk_v 2_o cor._n 6.16.17_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o that_o in_o 3._o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n be_v not_o reveal_v until_o first_o there_o be_v a_o fall_v away_o and_o therefore_o his_o come_n be_v say_v verse_n 9_o and_o 10._o to_o be_v withal_o deceivableness_n in_o who_o not_o in_o the_o church_n but_o in_o they_o that_o perish_v who_o because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v therefore_o god_n send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v lie_n that_o all_o they_o may_v perish_v who_o receive_v not_o the_o truth_n but_o have_v pleasure_n in_o unrighteousness_n verse_n 9.10.11.12_o whereupon_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o that_o temple_n or_o society_n wherein_o antichrist_n sit_v and_o be_v worship_v consist_v of_o person_n depart_v from_o the_o faith_n verse_n 3._o who_o be_v by_o god_n just_o for_o that_o cause_n give_v up_o to_o believe_v lie_n that_o so_o

they_o may_v perish_v and_o be_v damn_v and_o therefore_o not_o in_o any_o wise_a to_o be_v esteem_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n or_o temple_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o from_o his_o own_o ground_n see_v that_o by_o antichrist_n here_o speak_v of_o he_o understand_v the_o beast_n mention_v rev._n 13._o as_o appear_v by_o his_o apply_v this_o scripture_n against_o

book_n of_o life_n rev._n 13.8_o he_o can_v therefore_o understand_v the_o same_o to_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n where_o antichrist_n sit_v and_o be_v worship_v unless_o he_o conceive_v that_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n consist_v of_o such_o person_n who_o name_n be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n which_o i_o suppose_v he_o do_v not_o and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v from_o his_o own_o ground_n that_o the_o temple_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o 2_o thes._n 2.4_o be_v no_o more_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n than_o antichrist_n who_o sit_v therein_o and_o be_v worship_v be_v

it_o can_v be_v make_v to_o appear_v probable_a that_o the_o visible_a church_n have_v continue_v under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n but_o it_o must_v stand_v as_o p._n b._n at_o first_o affirm_v page_n 2._o that_o under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n it_o can_v not_o continue_v but_o suppose_v it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o church_n have_v continue_v under_o that_o defection_n than_o he_o say_v pag._n 3._o that_o baptism_n by_o which_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v have_v there_o likewise_o continue_a and_o there_o also_o it_o will_v be_v probable_a that_o his_o baptism_n derive_v from_o thence_o be_v the_o baptism_n of_o jesus_n christ_n here_o we_o may_v take_v notice_n by_o way_n that_o the_o best_a ground_n he_o have_v for_o his_o faith_n in_o this_o particular_a be_v but_o a_o probability_n well_o but_o see_v that_o he_o hold_v that_o baptism_n depend_v upon_o the_o true_a church_n than_o where_o no_o true_a church_n be_v there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a baptism_n now_o i_o need_v not_o here_o demand_v whether_o conceive_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v a_o true_a church_n because_o in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o reader_n page_n 5._o he_o desire_v that_o none_o shall_v think_v so_o of_o he_o for_o there_o he_o say_v that_o he_o hold_v that_o state_n to_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o fornication_n the_o great_a whore_n sodom_n and_o egypt_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o hence_o follow_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v not_o christ_n baptism_n for_o thus_o he_o reason_v if_o the_o church_n have_v continue_v than_o baptism_n by_o which_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v have_v continue_v page_n 3._o but_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v not_o continue_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o be_v become_v the_o mother_n of_o fornication_n sodom_n and_o egypt_n as_o he_o faith_n in_o his_o epistle_n page_n 5._o therefore_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v have_v not_o continue_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n whereas_o therefore_o page_n 5._o he_o desire_v those_o which_o hold_v that_o the_o church_n and_o baptism_n have_v not_o continue_v under_o the_o defection_n of_o antichrist_n will_v show_v he_o the_o error_n and_o absurdity_n of_o such_o a_o opinion_n he_o may_v easy_o discover_v the_o error_n and_o absurdity_n hereof_o himself_o if_o he_o will_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o he_o have_v herein_o write_v viz._n that_o baptism_n difference_v the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o false_a pag._n 3.4_o whence_o it_o will_v necessary_o follow_v that_o if_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n which_o difference_v the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o false_a than_o rome_n the_o false_a matter_n must_v thereby_o be_v difference_v from_o itself_o and_o become_v a_o true_a church_n as_o when_o at_o first_o she_o receive_v christ_n baptism_n and_o then_o shall_v rome_n be_v no_o long_o rome_n but_o a_o true_a church_n and_o state_n difference_v from_o a_o false_a by_o her_o baptism_n which_o difference_v the_o true_a matter_n from_o the_o false_a and_o therefore_o for_o any_o to_o hold_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n to_o be_v a_o false_a church_n as_o p._n b._n do_v and_o withal_o to_o maintain_v that_o she_o retain_v the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n whereby_o the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n be_v difference_v from_o the_o false_a be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o a_o

absurd_a and_o contradictory_a i_o will_v therefore_o conclude_v this_o point_n thus_o see_v that_o true_a baptism_n difference_v the_o true_a matter_n of_o the_o church_n from_o the_o false_a as_o p.b._n say_v and_o yet_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v not_o difference_n she_o from_o the_o false_a matter_n as_o he_o also_o affirm_v in_o his_o epistle_n page_n 5._o therefore_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v not_o that_o baptism_n of_o christ_n which_o difference_v the_o true_a matter_n from_o the_o false_a page_n 3.4_o second_o that_o
