Gen. 5.2 Male and Female created he them and called their name Adam in the day when they were created But to some of your Instances which I wonder to find urged by a Person of Gravity and Learning First as to the Article 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which surely you cannot but know is so common to both sexes and not limited to the Masculine Gender as always to understand thereby the Man only as you say For it is not said Mark 16.16 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 He that believeth and is baptized is not the She fully comprehended therein also And 1 Cor. 7.30.31 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 They that weep 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 They that rejoyce 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 They that buy 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 They that use this World Doth the Article in all these and a 100 places more of the like nature that might be produced so limit it to the Masculine Gender that only men and not women are to be understood I hope you will not say so And is it not said 1 Cor. 6.16 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 They two shall be one flesh the Article doth equally respect both But so much for the Article 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Secondly The Word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 it comprehends both sexes and not the Masculine only as 1 Cor. 7.20 Let every Man 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 abide in the same calling wherein he is called And Jam. 1.14 Every Man 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 is tempted when he is drawn away of his own lust and enticed surely must comprehend every Woman to or else it would be strange Divinity Thirdly The Word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 the very same as Jam. 2.2 For if there come into your Assembly a Man 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 having a gold Ring c. Is not a Woman to be understood also thereby And Jam. 1.8 A double minded Man 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 is unstable in all his wayes And is not a double minded Woman so also We might trouble the Reader with the rest of your Instances of this kind but let these satisfie So that Sir you see your Exceptions to my Examples are utterly insignificant for here were Women Disciples and Believers in Praying together for the Spirit and afterwards receiving the same together also continuing together in the Apostles Doctrine Fellowship and Breaking of Bread and Prayer neither can your pretended limitation of Masculine Words and Articles you see relieve you or invalidate our Authority And in confirmation thereof we may add Act. 20.7 That the Disciples came together to break bread Women being as much Disciples as Men. Act. 9.36 And it is also said 1 Cor. 11.18 20. That the Church came together to break bread Women being Church-members as well as Men Act. 8.12 though debarred some Priviledges as 1 Cor. 14.34 1 Tim. 2.11 12 13. For there is neither male nor female but all one in Christ Gal. 3.28 And being many are one Bread and one Body Believing Women being as much of the Body of Christ as believing men 1 Cor. 10.17 And who are enjoyned to keep Christs Precepts and Commandments left in charge for all Disciples as well as the Men Mat. 28.20 This of Breaking of Bread after Baptism being none of the least of them And who must give account for disobedience and neglect of duty as well as the Men. And as your own Conscience seals to the truth hereof so you are force also to declare it telling us How unpleasing it is to you to raise Arguments against a known Truth being as you say as much for Believing womens receiving the Lords Supper as the men Thus have you my Proofs for Womens receiving the Lords Supper and the Verity thereof confirmed by your self Therefore in the next place we shall try whether you have as clear or as you say more full proof for the Example of Infants Baptism and as to which you give the following Instances Viz. First That Lydia was Baptized and her Houshold Acts 16.15 It is not said that any of her House were Converted besides her self Secondly The Houshold of Stephanus 1 Cor. 1.16 it being apparent that House in Scripture doth comprehend Children 1 Sam. 20.15 2 Sam. 9.1 Exod. 1.21 c. Therefore you say Let impartial persons judge whether this doth not carry as much if not mo●e probability and evidence in it than what hath been brought for Womens receiving the Lords Supper and not lyable to such Exceptions from the Context nor from any other Scripture Wherein I joyne issue with you in the Appeal beseeching you and all men to consider First Whether there be one Infant so much as named to be in either of those Housholds much less that any were Baptized in them But we have Women expresly mentioned to be of the Number of the 120 Disciples upon whom also the Spirit was poured in the day of Penticost to whom the 3000 were joyned and who together broke Bread also Secondly Are Children as expresly owned to have right to Baptisme and enjoyned thereto and capable to descern the spiritual Mysteries thereof and to act Faith therein being Believers part of the Church and Members of the Body of Christ as Women are expresly owned to have right to the Ordinance of the Supper and enjoyned thereto and capable to descern the spiritual Mysteries thereof and to act Faith therein as being Believers part of the Church and Members of the Body of Christ Thirdly Is Infants Baptism acknowledged by us to be a known Truth and that it is unpleasant to us to raise Arguments against it as you have in express tearms done for Womens receiving the Lords Supper So that here is not the least paritie or comparison to be made betwixt the one or the other there being not the least considerable pretence to imagine that any Infants were Baptized because t is said that Housholds were First Because though it is true that Infants may belong to the Houshold so may the heathen Idolaters Wife and Servants and that Children are said to be in some Housholds yet there are many Housholds wherein there are no Children and it is not proved that there was one Infant belonging to either of these two Housholds Secondly In the four Housholds mentioned to be Baptized in Scripture they are said at least in three of them if not in the fourth also to comprehend only such as were taught Believers in those Families or Housholds As 1st Concerning the Jaylor Act. 16.32 33 34. It is said They spake the Word to all that were in his House and that He viz. the Jaylor Believed in God with all his House 2ly Crispus Act. 18.8 And Crispus believed on the Lord and all his House 3ly Stephanus House that was Baptized 1 Cor. 1.16 are called the first-fruits or Achaia that addicted themselves to the Ministery of the Saints which no Infant was capable to do And the 4th is the Houshold of Lydia where we have good ground to conclude
