A87687	Baptism without bason. Or, Plain Scripture-proof against infant-baptism, I. By way of answer to Mr. Baxter's arguments, and to the exercitations of Mr. Sidenham, teacher to a church a[t] Newcastle, concerning infants baptism: for which that their pretended consequences are from concessions not to be granted, and from Scriptures as mistaken, and absolutely wrested, is clearly discovered. With II. Several questions and answers, positively holding out the minde of Christ in baptizing of believers onely; and that the magistrates may be induced more and more to encourage the preaching thereof in publike. III. A declaration written to the election of grace, who for want of information are of contrary judgment. Written by William Kaye, minister of the Gospel at Stokesley.	Kaye, William.	1653 (1653)	Wing K32; Thomason E715_13; ESTC R207264	49,935	54

upon_o which_o mr._n s._n will_v build_v a_o foundation_n be_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n and_o how_o then_o shall_v his_o doctrine_n for_o which_o he_o have_v no_o foundation_n to_o make_v the_o

away_o m._n s_n and_o m._n b_n consequence_n for_o circumcision_n can_v be_v admit_v of_o that_o child_n upon_o that_o pretence_n shall_v have_v baptism_n of_o which_o mr._n s._n be_v much_o mistake_v in_o that_o he_o call_v baptism_n the_o new_a external_a sign_n and_o seal_v of_o the_o covenant_n he_o have_v no_o scripture_n to_o prove_v what_o he_o say_v neither_o can_v he_o prove_v that_o baptism_n be_v a_o seal_n at_o all_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o such_o thing_n in_o the_o covenant_n to_o be_v sign_v or_o seal_v he_o as_o conceit_v yet_o mr._n sidenham_n p._n 10._o say_v first_o and_o chief_o we_o affirm_v this_o mean_v circumcision_n be_v the_o same_o in_o substance_n with_o the_o covenant_n administer_v under_o the_o gospel_n since_o christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o

covenant_n but_o figurative_o gen._n 17.10_o it_o be_v in_o its_o own_o nature_n the_o token_n of_o the_o covenant_n gen._n 17.11_o so_o that_o mr._n sidenham_n say_v that_o circumcision_n be_v the_o same_o in_o substance_n with_o the_o covenant_n in_o the_o gospel_n be_v partly_o mistake_v as_o also_o in_o compare_v circumcision_n with_o baptism_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o find_v any_o proof_n in_o scripture_n that_o baptism_n be_v either_o covenant_n or_o seal_v second_o and_o that_o circumcision_n be_v not_o the_o same_o in_o substance_n with_o the_o covenant_n under_o the_o gospel_n heb._n 8_o express_o declare_v that_o when_o the_o covenant_n whereof_o circumcision_n be_v a_o token_n and_o the_o new_a covenant_n be_v compare_v that_o the_o new_a covenant_n be_v establish_v upon_o better_a promise_n heb_fw-mi 8.6_o than_o a_o temporal_a inheritance_n and_o yet_o mr._n sidenham_n will_v have_v the_o best_a of_o promise_n in_o circumcision_n as_o in_o the_o next_o place_n do_v appear_v in_o that_o he_o say_v that_o circumcision_n be_v found_v on_o pure_a grace_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o pure_a covenant_n of_o grace_n gal._n 3.16_o 17_o 18_o 19_o 29._o answ_n that_o it_o may_v true_o and_o clear_o appear_v first_o that_o the_o scripture_n he_o produce_v witness_n against_o he_o and_o second_o that_o he_o have_v not_o right_o apply_v they_o let_v we_o observe_v 1._o that_o that_o which_o he_o allege_v gal._n 3.16_o that_o the_o promise_n be_v not_o make_v to_o abraham_n seed_n as_o of_o many_o but_o as_o of_o one_o to_o thy_o feed_n which_o be_v christ_n though_o we_o take_v this_o for_o christ_n mystical_a as_o mr._n sidenham_n will_v have_v it_o yet_o here_o be_v nothing_o relate_v to_o circumcision_n in_o which_o if_o we_o mind_n it_o be_v say_v the_o promise_n be_v make_v not_o to_o the_o seed_n which_o be_v of_o hagar_n and_o stranger_n as_o well_o as_o of_o isaac_n which_o promise_n have_v respect_n to_o circumcision_n therefore_o those_o promise_n be_v exclude_v which_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o seed_n of_o many_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o circumcision_n speak_v in_o the_o 16._o ver_fw-la but_o of_o the_o promise_n which_o relate_v to_o gen._n 22.16_o 17_o 18._o and_o that_o ver_fw-la 17._o speak_v nothing_o of_o circumcision_n there_o be_v three_o thing_n mention_v in_o the_o say_a verse_n covenant_n law_n and_o promise_v the_o first_o two_o whereof_o the_o covenant_n and_o law_n be_v only_o name_v as_o that_o they_o can_v not_o or_o can_v disannul_v the_o promise_n which_o be_v make_v as_o i_o have_v prove_v before_o unto_o abraham_n gen._n 22.16_o 17_o 18._o and_o unto_o abraham_n seed_n which_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n by_o grace_n and_o faith_n call_v to_o walk_v in_o the_o step_n of_o abraham_n rom._n 4.11_o 12._o as_o i_o shall_v present_o more_o full_o declare_v therefore_o in_o that_o god_n make_v a_o gracious_a promise_n to_o abraham_n because_o abraham_n do_v believe_v in_o god_n when_o he_o shall_v have_v sacrifice_v his_o son_n isaac_n therefore_o this_o promise_n have_v respect_n to_o gen._n 22.18_o for_o you_o see_v this_o be_v not_o call_v a_o covenant_n but_o a_o promise_n which_o be_v make_v to_o abraham_n ver_fw-la 16_o 17._o and_o therefore_o that_o all_o that_o be_v speak_v by_o the_o apostle_n ver_fw-la 18_o as_o be_v above_o mention_v as_o the_o verse_n be_v allege_v by_o mr._n sidenham_n gal._n 3.16_o 17_o 18_o 19_o do_v not_o hold_v forth_o any_o thing_n to_o make_v mr._n sidenhams_n pretence_n that_o circumcision_n be_v found_v on_o pure_a grace_n or_o to_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o pure_a grace_n be_v full_o discover_v and_o therefore_o 2._o that_o in_o the_o next_o place_n i_o may_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o mr._n s._n have_v not_o right_o apprehend_v these_o scripture_n in_o call_v circumcision_n from_o thence_o a_o covenant_n of_o pure_a grace_n this_o i_o say_v to_o be_v found_v on_o pure_a grace_n or_o that_o god_n of_o his_o pure_a grace_n or_o good_a will_n be_v please_v to_o look_v on_o abraham_n so_o as_o to_o give_v he_o a_o temporal_a promise_n or_o a_o seed_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n be_v not_o to_o be_v deny_v yet_o this_o make_v not_o the_o gift_n to_o be_v pure_a grace_n as_o if_o god_n in_o his_o pure_a grace_n give_v the_o wicked_a meat_n drink_n and_o clothing_n do_v not_o prove_v that_o their_o meat_n drink_n and_o clothing_n be_v pure_a grace_n therefore_o however_o circumcision_n the_o sign_n of_o temporal_a mercy_n be_v give_v on_o god_n part_n of_o his_o pure_a grace_n it_o make_v not_o the_o covenant_n to_o be_v pure_a grace_n which_o as_o i_o say_v in_o the_o content_n of_o the_o 8._o chap._n to_o the_o hebrew_n be_v call_v a_o covenant_n of_o temporal_a promise_n for_o all_o spiritual_a promise_n which_o be_v make_v to_o abraham_n be_v not_o by_o virtue_n of_o circumcision_n but_o in_o that_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v gal._n 3.8_o god_n foresee_v that_o he_o will_v justify_v the_o heathen_a through_o faith_n preach_v the_o gospel_n unto_o abraham_n say_v in_o thou_o shall_v all_o nation_n be_v bless_v which_o word_n be_v express_o mention_v gen_n 22.18_o and_o can_v be_v find_v gen._n 17._o circumcision_n relate_v to_o nation_n that_o shall_v come_v of_o abraham_n seed_n in_o which_o temporal_a promise_n the_o gentile_n have_v no_o interest_n but_o as_o they_o submit_v to_o the_o jew_n therefore_o it_o be_v clear_a enough_o or_o the_o sun_n can_v shine_v more_o clear_o then_o that_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n be_v believer_n or_o walk_v in_o the_o step_n of_o abraham_n gal._n 3.7_o 9_o rom._n 4.12_o circumcision_n the_o token_n of_o a_o temporal_a covenant_n do_v not_o hold_v forth_o this_o spiritual_a mercy_n which_o god_n upon_o abraham_n sacrifice_v of_o his_o son_n promise_v abraham_n even_o to_o bless_v all_o nation_n in_o he_o as_o have_v be_v at_o large_a discover_v and_o therefore_o that_o which_o mr._n sidenham_n say_v that_o the_o apostle_n use_v the_o same_o expression_n in_o heb._n 8.10_o where_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o new_a covenant_n which_o be_v as_o mr._n sidenham_n pretend_v use_v gen._n 17._o i_o will_v be_v thy_o god_n and_o the_o

will_v be_v a_o god_n unto_o thou_o and_o thy_o seed_n after_o thou_o but_o in_o the_o new_a covenant_n he_o say_v not_o only_o that_o he_o will_v be_v a_o god_n unto_o they_o and_o they_o shall_v be_v a_o people_n unto_o he_o but_o to_o show_v that_o this_o new_a covenant_n be_v upon_o better_a promise_n god_n show_v that_o he_o will_v work_v a_o work_n of_o grace_n even_o to_o write_v his_o
