within_o abraham_n covenant_n for_o we_o can_v imagine_v that_o all_o the_o apostle_n baptize_v be_v real_o call_v for_o the_o sorcerer_n before_o mention_v do_v sufficient_o confute_v it_o therefore_o still_o he_o mistake_v the_o question_n which_o be_v thus_o whether_o all_o that_o be_v call_v be_v real_o justify_v 2_o neither_o can_v it_o be_v reasonable_o think_v that_o there_o be_v no_o hypocrite_n among_o those_o three_o thousand_o mention_v and_o that_o they_o be_v all_o so_o call_v as_o he_o speak_v of_o but_o the_o apostle_n intention_n be_v to_o let_v they_o know_v by_o what_o way_n they_o may_v get_v in_o to_o abraham_n covenant_n again_o from_o which_o both_o they_o and_o their_o seed_n be_v cut_v off_o therefore_o repent_v and_o be_v baptize_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o you_o shall_v receive_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o promise_n be_v to_o you_o and_o your_o child_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n come_v still_o in_o the_o way_n of_o abraham_n covenant_n as_o it_o do_v before_o gal._n 3.14_o therefore_o if_o you_o will_v get_v into_o the_o way_n of_o the_o

admit_v to_o baptism_n but_o such_o as_o real_o repent_v and_o be_v real_o call_v and_o real_o justify_v when_o as_o yet_o he_o forget_v his_o own_o ignorance_n that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o discern_v th●m_n thus_o we_o have_v sift_v all_o his_o cavil_n bring_v against_o this_o text_n as_o not_o to_o countenance_v infant-baptism_n and_o upon_o the_o whole_a we_o find_v it_o to_o be_v a_o tender_a of_o abraham_n covenant_n in_o all_o the_o blessing_n of_o it_o even_o to_o child_n of_o visible_a believer_n either_o jew_n or_o gentile_n therefore_o the_o seal_n of_o that_o covenant_n be_v their_o due_a right_n and_o privilege_n p._n the_o next_o text_n be_v 1_o cor._n 7.14_o which_o he_o say_v we_o abuse_v to_o make_v it_o speak_v for_o infant-holiness_n else_o be_v your_o child_n

people_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v holy_a by_o separation_n as_o the_o carnal_a jew_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o world_n and_o thus_o the_o vessel_n of_o the_o temple_n be_v holy_a and_o the_o priest_n be_v holy_a 2_o second_o a_o new-covenant_n holiness_n when_o god_n write_v his_o law_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o sanctify_v their_o nature_n and_o there_o be_v no_o other_o kind_n of_o

impossible_a that_o a_o believer_n carnal_a seed_n shall_v be_v so_o holy_a by_o birth_n and_o no_o other_o sanctification_n the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o belong_v to_o the_o new_a covenant_n the_o

argument_n of_o his_o ignorance_n than_o any_o confirmation_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o he_o say_v for_o that_o new-covenant_n have_v such_o a_o holiness_n of_o separation_n belong_v to_o it_o from_o adam_n to_o christ_n and_o it_o be_v the_o s●me_n that_o we_o have_v only_o the_o holy_a thing_n be_v change_v yet_o so_o as_o that_o whatever_o ordinance_n god_n have_v give_v his_o church_n

they_o all_o carry_v the_o denomination_n of_o holy_a one_o so_o that_o the_o church_n stand_v upon_o the_o same_o term_n of_o separation_n now_o as_o then_o from_o the_o world_n therefore_o the_o cast_v out_o of_o the_o incestuous_a person_n be_v as_o one_o pollute_v and_o unclean_a which_o be_v oppose_v to_o such_o a_o holiness_n as_o make_v a_o person_n fit_a for_o church-communion_n thus_o
