gospel_n of_o the_o kingdom_n that_o believer_n shall_v be_v blessing_n to_o their_o child_n namely_o so_o as_o they_o shall_v be_v mean_n of_o their_o conversion_n and_o in_o that_o respect_n of_o

part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o so_o the_o blessing_n of_o that_o kingdom_n belong_v unto_o they_o as_o the_o apostle_n peter_n say_v in_o a_o like_a case_n act._n 10._o 47_o can_v any_o

only_o for_o that_o short_a time_n wherein_o he_o be_v to_o be_v with_o they_o in_o the_o flesh_n it_o be_v record_v after_o his_o ascension_n and_o of_o a_o perpetual_a obligation_n to_o the_o

to_o christ_n that_o he_o may_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o they_o and_o bless_v they_o but_o in_o baptism_n wherein_o our_o initiation_n into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o the_o blessing_n of_o that_o kingdom_n be_v seal_v and_o as_o by_o his_o lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o they_o and_o blessing_n they_o at_o that_o time_n we_o see_v that_o infant_n be_v capable_a of_o benefit_n by_o outward_a sign_n which_o themselves_o can_v consider_v nor_o understand_v so_o that_o in_o baptism_n now_o the_o lord_n christ_n in_o do_v his_o part_n therein_o do_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o effect_n as_o than_o he_o do_v to_o those_o child_n when_o he_o take_v they_o in_o his_o arm_n lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o they_o and_o bless_v they_o in_o as_o much_o as_o their_o entrance_n into_o his_o kingdom_n

say_v to_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o that_o place_n namely_o that_o only_o those_o who_o be_v make_v disciple_n may_v be_v baptize_v although_o more_o may_v be_v say_v about_o those_o word_n in_o answer_n to_o it_o namely_o that_o in_o the_o word_n baptise_v they_o matth._n 28._o 19_o we_o have_v by_o a_o synecdoche_n a_o part_n for_o the_o whole_a a_o usual_a form_n of_o speech_n in_o scripture_n for_o we_o know_v the_o apostle_n commission_n do_v extend_v as_o well_o to_o a_o set_n up_o of_o other_o ordinance_n as_o of_o baptism_n therefore_o when_o he_o say_v go_v teach_v all_o

thing_n the_o application_n of_o the_o token_n of_o abraham_n covenant_n to_o infant_n may_v be_v a_o part_n any_o thing_n in_o that_o place_n contain_v notwithstanding_o no_o more_o at_o present_a upon_o that_o subject_n but_o have_v have_v occasion_n in_o open_v this_o point_n to_o speak_v of_o several_a thing_n concern_v the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n i_o must_v add_v something_o though_o but_o brief_o by_o way_n of_o application_n also_o upon_o that_o use_v 6._o therefore_o a_o six_o use_n of_o this_o point_n may_v be_v that_o from_o thence_o we_o learn_v to_o rectify_v some_o

psal_n 47._o 3._o namely_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o kingdom_n and_o dominion_n and_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o kingdom_n under_o the_o whole_a heaven_n shall_v be_v give_v to_o the_o people_n of_o the_o saint_n of_o the_o most_o high_a and_o that_o they_o shall_v fill_v the_o world_n and_o the_o lord_n shall_v subdue_v the_o people_n under_o they_o and_o the_o nation_n under_o their_o foot_n these_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v hard_a say_n and_o not_o to_o be_v bear_v this_o doctrine_n will_v some_o say_v teach_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o be_v ill_a subject_n to_o grasp_v and_o reach_v after_o power_n and_o to_o be_v disturber_n of_o commonwealth_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v true_a if_o thing_n be_v not_o right_o understand_v there_o seem_v just_a cause_n of_o such_o

this_o point_n we_o see_v that_o although_o it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o as_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v a_o grow_a thing_n and_o of_o the_o increase_n of_o his_o government_n and_o peace_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o end_n 7._o esay_n 9_o 7._o and_o therefore_o must_v fill_v the_o world_n at_o last_o and_o that_o what_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v of_o abraham_n seed_n concern_v a_o

to_o such_o power_n you_o see_v he_o will_v do_v it_o by_o multiply_v the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n he_o will_v not_o do_v it_o by_o violence_n he_o declare_v against_o it_o esay_n 2._o 4._o but_o by_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n meekness_n and_o righteousness_n psal_n 45._o nor_o by_o unrighteous_a way_n of_o any_o kind_n the_o sceptre_n of_o his_o kingdom_n be_v a_o right_a sceptre_n no_o fear_n
