A74992	An ansvver to Mr. J.G. his XL. queries, touching the lawfulness, or unlawfulness of holding church-communion, between such who have been baptized after their beleeving, and others who have not otherwise been baptized, then in their infancie. As likewise touching infant, and after baptism. In which answer, the undueness of such mixt communion is declared, the unlawfulness of infant-baptism, and the necessity of after baptism is asserted.

say_v god_n will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_n 2._o that_o the_o baptise_a of_o child_n be_v not_o so_o necessary_a in_o the_o apostle_n day_n but_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v defer_v
