A86328 The foundation of the font discovered to the view of all that desire to behold it. And, the baptizing of men and women when they believe (in rivers and fountains) proved to be a standing ordinance in the Church of Cchrist to the end of the world; by plain Scripture-proof. In answer to Mr. Cook's Font uncovered, for infant-baptism; and Mr. Baxter's Plain Scripture-proof for infants church-membership and baptism. With a word sometimes upon occasion to Mr. Hall's Font-guarded; which is more fully answered by Thomas Collyer. By Henry Haggar, a servant of Christ, and the congregations of his saints.

church-member_n and_o disciple_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o aught_o to_o be_v baptize_v for_o which_o cause_n i_o shall_v now_o come_v to_o answer_v to_o their_o argument_n in_o general_a and_o to_o show_v by_o the_o scripture_n why_o infant_n that_o can_v speak_v word_n nor_o understand_v reason_n can_v be_v church-member_n under_o the_o gospel_n nor_o christ_n disciple_n the_o which_o be_v

the_o covenant_n that_o god_n make_v with_o abraham_n upon_o which_o mr._n cook_n and_o mr._n baxter_n do_v pretend_v to_o build_v make_v the_o covenant_n with_o abraham_n and_o his_o natural_a seed_n under_o the_o law_n all_o one_o with_o the_o covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n and_o his_o spiritual_a seed_n bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n under_o the_o gospel_n in_o answer_n to_o which_o i_o thus_o reason_n 1_o that_o there_o be_v two_o covenant_n be_v evident_a gal._n 4.24_o in_o these_o word_n for_o these_o be_v the_o two_o covenant_n now_o if_o there_o be_v two_o covenant_n then_o either_o we_o be_v under_o the_o old_a covenant_n still_o or_o else_o the_o new_a be_v come_v in_o place_n but_o that_o we_o be_v not_o under_o the_o old_a covenant_n still_o be_v evident_a because_o christ_n be_v come_v who_o blood_n be_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n which_o be_v everlasting_a heb._n 13.20_o and_o luke_n 22.20_o he_o say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new-testament_n in_o my_o blood_n give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o as_o the_o old_a covenant_n or_o testament_n be_v seal_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n and_o calf_n heb._n 9.19_o 20._o so_o the_o new_a

in_o that_o he_o be_v the_o mediator_n of_o a_o better_a covenant_n heb._n 8.6_o for_o find_v fault_n with_o the_o first_o he_o say_v behold_v the_o day_n come_v say_v the_o lord_n that_o i_o will_v make_v a_o new_a covenant_n with_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n and_o judab_n not_o according_a to_o the_o former_a etc._n etc._n ver_fw-la 7_o 8_o 9_o 10_o 11._o what_o be_v that_o he_o will_v put_v his_o law_n in_o their_o mind_n and_o write_v they_o in_o their_o heart_n and_o i_o will_v be_v to_o they_o a_o god_n and_o they_o shall_v be_v to_o i_o a_o people_n which_o covenant_n the_o saint_n be_v now_o under_o and_o be_v heir_n of_o these_o better_a promise_n upon_o which_o it_o be_v establish_v therefore_o paul_n apply_v the_o same_o to_o the_o saint_n 2_o cor._n 6.16_o say_v as_o god_n have_v say_v i_o will_v dwell_v in_o they_o and_o walk_v in_o they_o and_o i_o will_v be_v their_o god_n and_o they_o shall_v be_v my_o people_n etc._n etc._n and_o thus_o have_v i_o prove_v that_o we_o be_v not_o under_o the_o old_a covenant_n which_o do_v proper_o belong_v to_o the_o fleshly_a seed_n which_o have_v but_o the_o promise_n of_o a_o earthly_a canaan_n under_o the_o curse_n and_o jerusalem_n which_o be_v in_o bondage_n with_o her_o child_n see_v gal._n 4.24.25_o but_o believer_n be_v under_o the_o new_a covenant_n which_o have_v better_a promise_n viz._n that_o they_o shall_v inherit_v that_o new_a heaven_n and_o new_a earth_n wherein_o dwell_v righteonsness_n and_o that_o new_a jerusalem_n which_o be_v above_o and_o be_v free_a and_o be_v the_o mother_n we_o of_o all_o see_v 2_o pet._n 3.13_o with_o gal._n 4.26_o again_o i_o believe_v paul_n know_v as_o well_o the_o intent_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o god_n make_v with_o abraham_n as_o mr._n baxter_n or_o mr._n cook_n and_o yet_o he_o apply_v it_o not_o to_o a_o fleshly_a seed_n as_o appear_v thus_o gen._n 17.7_o god_n say_v unto_o abraham_n i_o will_v establish_v my_o covenant_n between_o i_o and_o thou_o and_o thy_o seed_n after_o thou_o in_o their_o generation_n for_o a_o everlasting_a covenant_n to_o be_v a_o god_n to_o thou_o and_o thy_o seed_n etc._n etc._n now_o the_o question_n be_v who_o be_v the_o seed_n to_o who_o the_o covenant_n and_o promise_n do_v belong_v which_o paul_n answer_v gal._n 3.16_o say_n now_o to_o abraham_n and_o his_o seed_n be_v the_o promise_v make_v be_v say_v not_o to_o seed_n as_o of_o many_o but_o as_o of_o one_o and_o to_o thy_o seed_n which_o be_v chrst_o thus_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v not_o every_o one_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o flesh_n to_o abraham_n that_o have_v right_o to_o the_o covenant_n and_o privilege_n thereof_o but_o as_o he_o say_v ver_fw-la 29._o if_o you_o be_v christ_n then_o be_v you_o abraham_n seed_n and_o heir_n according_a to_o the_o promise_n as_o it_o be_v write_v rom._n 4.13_o the_o promise_n that_o abraham_n shall_v be_v the_o heir_n of_o the_o world_n be_v not_o to_o he_o nor_o his_o seed_n according_a to_o the_o law_n but_o according_a to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n as_o rom._n 9.7.8_o neither_o because_o they_o be_v the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n be_v they_o all_o child_n but_o in_o isaac_n shall_v thy_o seed_n be_v call_v that_o be_v say_v the_o apostle_n they_o that_o be_v the_o child_n of_o the_o flesh_n be_v not_o the_o child_n of_o god_n but_o the_o child_n of_o the_o promise_n be_v count_v for_o the_o seed_n now_o if_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n be_v not_o the_o child_n of_o the_o covenant_n nor_o heir_n of_o the_o promise_n by_o fleshly_a birth_n much_o less_o can_v the_o children_n of_o believe_a gentile_n that_o be_v inferior_a to_o abraham_n be_v in_o covenant_n for_o that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n joh._n 3.6_o likewise_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o say_v that_o it_o be_v esan_n though_o he_o be_v the_o elder_n that_o be_v in_o covenant_n but_o jacob_n though_o the_o young_a who_o believe_v in_o the_o god_n of_o his_o father_n isaac_n and_o indeed_o i_o do_v much_o wonder_n how_o the_o preacher_n of_o the_o chureh_n of_o england_n dare_v affirm_v that_o believer_n child_n be_v in_o covenant_n before_o believe_a by_o virtue_n of_o their_o parent_n faith_n and_o yet_o they_o hold_v that_o god_n do_v hate_n and_o have_v reprobate_v esau_n before_o he_o be_v bear_v or_o have_v do_v good_a or_o evil_a and_o so_o notwithstanding_o his_o parent_n isaac_n and_o rebecea_n be_v both_o precious_a beleiver_n yet_o esau_n their_o own_o child_n be_v never_o in_o covenant_n before_o he_o be_v bear_v nor_o after_o by_o their_o own_o grant_n thus_o all_o man_n may_v see_v how_o they_o confound_v their_o own_o principle_n no_o marvel_n then_o although_o they_o labour_v to_o confound_v other_o man_n and_o if_o this_o very_a thing_n be_v but_o well_o weigh_v and_o right_o consider_v it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o discover_v the_o folly_n and_o falsehood_n of_o all_o mr._n baxter_n and_o mr._n cook_n argument_n again_o if_o beleiver_n child_n be_v in_o covenant_n because_o they_o be_v beleiver_n child_n then_o grace_n come_v by_o generation_n and_o not_o by_o regeneration_n the_o which_o to_o affirm_v be_v absurd_a again_o if_o beleiver_n child_n be_v in_o covenant_n by_o virtue_n of_o their_o believe_v parent_n then_o all_o the_o world_n ever_o since_o righteous_a noah_n must_v needs_o be_v in_o covenant_n for_o they_o and_o we_o all_o come_v of_o righteous_a noah_n but_o mr._n cook_n say_v in_o his_o font_n uncover_v pag._n 45._o that_o he_o do_v not_o hold_v fall_v from_o the_o inward_a efficacy_n of_o grace_n and_o true_a sanctification_n justification_n and_o adoption_n answ_n so_o than_o it_o seem_v by_o his_o own_o confession_n it_o be_v not_o true_a and_o than_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v false_a and_o it_o be_v well_o if_o they_o fall_v from_o false_a grace_n and_o false_a sanctification_n and_o false_a justification_n and_o false_a adoption_n for_o they_o that_o fall_v from_o false_a must_v needs_o fall_v to_o true_a as_o certain_o as_o they_o which_o fall_v from_o true_a must_v needs_o fall_v to_o false_a or_o else_o they_o fall_v from_o nothing_o but_o abide_v as_o they_o be_v but_o to_o make_v the_o folly_n of_o these_o wise_a man_n manifest_v i_o pray_v consider_v with_o i_o 1._o what_o the_o new_a covenant_n be_v and_o then_o 2._o you_o shall_v judge_v whether_o infant_n be_v
