A87687	Baptism without bason. Or, Plain Scripture-proof against infant-baptism, I. By way of answer to Mr. Baxter's arguments, and to the exercitations of Mr. Sidenham, teacher to a church a[t] Newcastle, concerning infants baptism: for which that their pretended consequences are from concessions not to be granted, and from Scriptures as mistaken, and absolutely wrested, is clearly discovered. With II. Several questions and answers, positively holding out the minde of Christ in baptizing of believers onely; and that the magistrates may be induced more and more to encourage the preaching thereof in publike. III. A declaration written to the election of grace, who for want of information are of contrary judgment. Written by William Kaye, minister of the Gospel at Stokesley.	Kaye, William.	1653 (1653)	Wing K32; Thomason E715_13; ESTC R207264	49,935	54

you_o the_o naked_a truth_n baptism_n do_v not_o make_v a_o disciple_n or_o a_o believer_n though_o believe_v disciple_n so_o call_v by_o grace_n aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v that_o be_v bury_v or_o cover_v over_o or_o humble_v to_o god_n in_o water_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n so_o that_o to_o be_v a_o disciple_n and_o baptize_v be_v two_o distinct_a thing_n though_o both_o be_v unite_v or_o marry_v together_o in_o the_o same_o gospel-ordinance_n and_o therefore_o m._n b._n ought_v not_o to_o imagine_v as_o the_o blind_a world_n conceit_v that_o baptism_n make_v a_o disciple_n or_o believer_n or_o as_o they_o say_v a_o christian_a for_o to_o be_v a_o believer_n and_o disciple_n be_v to_o be_v a_o christian_n who_o as_o a_o christian_a he_o can_v be_v so_o adjudge_v except_o he_o be_v baptize_v and_o therefore_o all_o the_o course_n that_o m._n b._n take_v in_o sprinkle_v or_o pour_v water_n upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o child_n will_v not_o do_v

a_o great_a deal_n of_o labour_n in_o command_v they_o first_o to_o disciple_n by_o teach_v and_o then_o to_o baptize_v and_o if_o by_o nature_n or_o our_o be_v we_o have_v that_o miraculous_a

therefore_o i_o will_v not_o have_v trouble_v myself_o any_o further_a but_o that_o i_o find_v m._n b._n so_o averse_a against_o the_o way_n of_o discipling_n according_a to_o the_o express_a

argument_n against_o discipling_n by_o teach_v therefore_o i_o have_v this_o further_a to_o tell_v he_o if_o education_n make_v he_o a_o disciple_n than_o baptism_n do_v not_o and_o questionless_a if_o he_o be_v well_o educate_v he_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o be_v timothy_n like_v teach_v the_o scripture_n of_o a_o child_n which_o through_o the_o spririt_n of_o grace_n be_v able_a to_o make_v we_o wise_a unto_o salvation_n and_o though_o a_o work_n of_o grace_n can_v be_v discover_v yet_o all_o education_n and_o knowledge_n and_o wait_v be_v little_a enough_o or_o it_o be_v but_o the_o

such_o a_o discipling_n as_o m._n b._n speak_v of_o unto_o which_o he_o have_v attain_v by_o education_n suit_n with_o or_o may_v shake_v hand_n with_o his_o incomplete_a disciple_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o disciple_n of_o john_n be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v disciple_v again_o and_o rebaptise_v for_o any_o thing_n i_o can_v see_v the_o work_n through_o disaffection_n be_v
