answer_n to_o this_o argument_n be_v by_o deny_v that_o infant_n be_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n only_o some_o few_o deny_v the_o consequence_n that_o although_o they_o be_v within_o the_o covenant_n yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o they_o must_v be_v seal_v because_o say_v they_o the_o woman_n among_o the_o jew_n be_v under_o the_o covenant_n yet_o receive_v not_o circumcision_n which_o be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n but_o this_o receive_v a_o easy_a answer_n the_o woman_n be_v circumcise_a in_o the_o male_n else_o can_v not_o god_n have_v say_v that_o the_o whole_a house_n of_o israel_n be_v circumcise_a in_o the_o flesh_n else_o can_v not_o the_o whole_a nation_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v call_v the_o circumcision_n in_o opposition_n to_o all_o the_o world_n beside_o who_o be_v call_v the_o uncircumcision_n but_o for_o the_o better_a clear_n of_o this_o whole_a argument_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o make_v good_a these_o five_o conclusion_n conclusion_n first_o that_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n have_v always_o for_o substance_n ben_z one_o and_o the_o same_o second_o god_n will_v have_v the_o infant_n of_o such_o as_o enter_v into_o covenant_n

and_o their_o child_n as_o they_o be_v before_o christ_n time_n and_o these_o five_o proposition_n make_v good_a the_o argument_n will_v be_v strong_a and_o undeniable_a the_o first_o be_v that_o
