may_v there_o be_v a_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o one_o to_o the_o like_a manner_n of_o administer_a the_o other_o 4._o that_o some_o there_o be_v circumcise_v to_o

may_v be_v affirm_v of_o the_o female_n come_v from_o abraham_n the_o infant_n die_v before_o the_o eight_o day_n of_o just_a man_n live_v out_o of_o abraham_n house_n as_o melchisedech_n lot_n job_n if_o any_o say_v that_o the_o female_n be_v circumcise_v in_o the_o circumcision_n of_o the_o male_n he_o say_v it_o without_o proof_n and_o by_o like_o perhaps_o great_a reason_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o the_o child_n of_o believer_n be_v baptise_v in_o the_o person_n of_o their_o parent_n and_o therefore_o be_v not_o to_o be_v baptise_v in_o their_o own_o person_n but_o it_o be_v

disciple_n till_o they_o profess_v repentance_n and_o faith_n in_o christ_n hence_o i_o gather_v first_o that_o the_o right_a to_o evangelical_a promise_n be_v not_o the_o adequate_a reason_n of_o crrcumcise_n these_o or_o those_o but_o god_n precept_n as_o be_v express_v gen._n 17._o 23._o gen._n 21._o 4._o second_o that_o those_o term_n be_v not_o convertible_a federate_n and_o to_o be_v

this_o limitation_n it_o be_v true_a of_o that_o sign_n of_o the_o covenant_n which_o agree_v universal_o in_o respect_n of_o form_n and_o sanction_n to_o they_o that_o receive_v the_o gospel_n but_o it_o be_v not_o true_a of_o that_o sign_n of_o the_o covenant_n which_o be_v of_o a_o particular_a form_n or_o sanctior_fw-la of_o which_o sort_n be_v circumcision_n second_o i_o answer_v by_o deny_v the_o minor_a universal_o take_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o those_o child_n only_o of_o believe_v gentile_n be_v abraham_n child_n who_o be_v his_o spiritual_a seed_n according_a to_o the_o

circumcision_n do_v agree_v to_o they_o baptism_n do_v agree_v but_o to_o infant_n circumcision_n do_v agree_v therefore_o also_o baptism_n the_o major_n be_v thus_o prove_v if_o the_o baptism_n of_o christ_n succeed_v into_o the_o place_n of_o circumcision_n than_o baptism_n belong_v to_o they_o that_o circumcision_n belong_v to_o but_o the_o antecedent_n be_v true_a therefore_o also_o the_o

beza_n read_v show_v that_o christ_n word_n be_v mean_v only_o of_o those_o child_n 6._o if_o this_o fact_n pertain_v to_o baptism_n than_o we_o must_v say_v that_o christ_n baptise_v the_o contrary_a

to_o the_o argument_n therefore_o answer_n be_v make_v by_o deny_v the_o major_a universal_o take_v second_o the_o argument_n be_v thus_o form_v arg._n those_o who_o christ_n embrace_v lay_v his_o
