A12552	The character of the beast, or, The false constitution of the church discovered in certayne passages betwixt Mr. R. Clifton & Iohn Smyth, concerning true Christian baptisme of new creatures, or new borne babes in Christ, &nd false baptisme of infants borne after the flesh : referred to two propositions, 1. That infants are not to bee baptized, 2. That antichristians converted are to bee admitted into the true church by baptisme.	Smyth, John, d. 1612.	1609 (1609)	STC 22875; ESTC S991	85,221	80

i_o say_v that_o you_o err_v mistake_v the_o scripture_n for_o abraham_n faith_n do_v not_o go_v before_o his_o circumcision_n as_o a_o necessary_a antecedent_n to_o establish_v he_o a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n but_o as_o a_o necessary_a precedent_n example_n type_n or_o pattern_n of_o justification_n &_o circumcision_n in_o abraham_n be_v not_o a_o seal_n of_o his_o justification_n or_o of_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n god_n make_v with_o he_o in_o respect_n of_o christ_n thereby_o to_o establish_v he_o into_o christ_n for_o he_o be_v in_o christ_n &_o seal_v in_o christ_n many_o year_n before_o by_o the_o seal_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o abraham_n justification_n in_o uncircumcision_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o justification_n of_o the_o gentile_n who_o be_v uncircumcised_a &_o abraham_n circumcision_n alter_v his_o justification_n seal_v he_o up_o to_o be_v the_o father_n of_o all_o the_o believer_n circumcise_v &_o so_o circumcision_n have_v a_o triple_a use_n in_o abraham_n one_o general_a &_o two_o special_a &_o particular_a the_o two_o special_a be_v these_o first_o circumcision_n seal_v up_o abrah_n form_n of_o justification_n to_o be_v a_o pattern_n to_o all_o the_o believer_n in_o uncircumcision_n that_o the_o believe_a gentiles_n shall_v be_v all_o justify_v by_o actual_a faith_n as_o he_o be_v second_o circumcision_n seal_v up_o abrah_n form_n of_o justification_n to_o be_v a_o pattern_n to_o all_o the_o believer_n in_o circumcision_n that_o the_o beleve_a jew_n shall_v be_v all_o justify_v by_o actual_a faith_n as_o he_o be_v the_o general_a use_n of_o abrah_n circumcision_n be_v common_a with_o he_o to_o ishmael_n &_o all_o the_o person_n of_o his_o family_n &_o all_o the_o carnal_a israelite_n viz_n to_o seal_v he_o up_o to_o the_o old_a testament_n &_o to_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o whole_a law_n whereby_o chr._n in_o that_o vele_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v preach_v unto_o the_o jew_n it_o be_v there_o schoolmr_n to_o teach_v they_o christ_n now_o for_o the_o place_n rom._n 4.11_o which_o i_o be_o assure_v you_o will_v ground_v your_o assertion_n upon_o i_o say_v it_o be_v both_o false_o translate_v &_o expound_v for_o tes_fw-fr en_fw-fr te_fw-fr acrobustia_fw-la be_v usual_o translate_v which_o abrah_n have_v when_o he_o be_v uncircumcize_v &_o this_o i_o say_v be_v a_o false_a translation_n for_o this_o be_v the_o true_a translation_n viz_n which_o be_v or_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o uncircumcision_n mean_v that_o circumcision_n upon_o abrah_n the_o father_n of_o all_o the_o beleve_a gentile_n be_v a_o seal_n of_o justification_n to_o all_o the_o uncircumcision_n that_o believe_v &_o the_o end_n of_o his_o circumcision_n be_v his_o fatherhood_n of_o the_o faithful_a &_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o seal_v up_o to_o abrah_n particular_a person_n but_o to_o the_o uncircumcised_a that_o believe_v &_o that_o which_o be_v seal_v up_o in_o special_a to_o abrah_n be_v his_o fatherhood_n or_o presidentship_n of_o justification_n so_o that_o circumcision_n in_o abrah_n be_v to_o establish_v he_o the_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a gentile_n &_o his_o circumcision_n do_v teach_v the_o gentile_n that_o if_o they_o will_v partake_v chr._n they_o must_v by_o their_o actual_a faith_n apprehend_v christ_n righteousness_n as_o abrah_n their_o father_n do_v otherwise_o they_o can_v be_v justify_v &_o so_o paul_n intent_n be_v plain_o prove_v namely_o that_o all_o man_n must_v be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n &_o this_o do_v i_o confident_o affirm_v to_o be_v the_o true_a translation_n &_o exposition_n &_o that_o the_o common_a acceptation_n &_o translation_n of_o the_o place_n be_v the_o

baptism_n that_o be_v not_o so_o i_o show_v the_o difference_n in_o divers_a particular_a 1._o they_o of_o abraham_n family_n be_v circuncise_v upon_o particular_a precept_n in_o obedience_n of_o the_o commandment_n genes_n 17.23_o you_o can_v prove_v that_o the_o infant_n of_o lydias_n &_o the_o gaylors_n family_n be_v baptize_v upon_o particular_a precept_n but_o only_o you_o say_v it_o &_o endeavour_n to_o justify_v it_o by_o the_o example_n of_o abra._n family_n but_o if_o abra._n family_n be_v a_o example_n than_o you_o must_v bring_v a_o particular_a precept_n as_o he_o have_v for_o baptise_v infant_n 2._o they_o that_o be_v male_n only_o be_v circumcise_v but_o you_o will_v have_v both_o male_n &_o female_n baptize_v this_o be_v another_o difference_n 3._o they_o that_o be_v circumcise_v of_o abrah_n family_n be_v all_o the_o male_n be_v of_o year_n though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o lewd_a &_o wicked_a person_n so_o be_v not_o all_o the_o person_n of_o lydias_n &_o the_o gaylors_n family_n but_o only_o the_o believer_n be_v of_o year_n according_a to_o your_o opinion_n 4._o as_o faith_n do_v not_o entitle_v the_o female_a to_o circumcision_n &_o as_o infidelity_n do_v not_o deprive_v the_o male_a of_o circumcision_n in_o abraham_n family_n so_o faith_n do_v entitle_v the_o female_a to_o baptism_n in_o the_o family_n of_o the_o jailer_n &_o lydia_n &_o infidelity_n in_o the_o male_a do_v exclude_v he_o from_o baptism_n you_o see_v therefore_o that_o the_o proportion_n be_v not_o alike_o betwixt_o baptism_n &_o circumcision_n the_o second_o particular_a in_o your_o answer_n to_o this_o arg._n be_v that_o the_o same_o order_n be_v keep_v in_o chr._n commission_n mat._n 18.19_o in_o bring_v the_o gentiles_n into_o god_n covenant_n as_o be_v keep_v with_o

covenant_n with_o all_o their_o family_n &_o be_v baptize_v after_o the_o gospel_n preach_v to_o they_o i_o answer_v that_o in_o this_o particular_a there_o be_v difference_n betwixt_o the_o one_o act_n of_o abrah_n &_o the_o other_o of_o lydia_n &_o the_o jailer_n according_a to_o the_o commission_n of_o chr._n mat._n 28.19_o first_o abrah_n &_o all_o his_o family_n by_o the_o lord_n commandment_n come_v under_o the_o covenant_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n actual_o &_o the_o male_n only_o be_v circumcise_v but_o chr._n do_v not_o command_v all_o person_n of_o a_o family_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o be_v baptize_v but_o only_o such_o as_o be_v make_v disciple_n &_o all_o they_o though_o they_o be_v woman_n as_o lydia_n be_v second_o the_o gospel_n be_v only_o preach_v
