YOu
still
alledge
the
Scriptures
,
for
the
confirmation
and
proof
of
what
you
hold
in
the
Questions
propounded
to
you
:
Of
what
Authority
and
Credit
are
the
Scriptures
,
that
you
build
upon
them
with
so
much
confidence
in
matters
of
such
great
Concernment
unto
you
?
What
maketh
the
Authority
of
the
Scriptures
so
sacred
,
and
irrefragable
,
that
they
ought
not
to
be
rejected
,
gain-said
,
suspected
,
or
doubted
of
,
in
any
thing
they
affirm
or
deny
?
How
can
it
be
proved
that
God
is
the
Author
of
the
Scriptures
?
or
that
they
proceed
from
him
?
By
how
many
arguments
taken
from
the
Scriptures
themselves
,
that
is
,
either
from
the
matter
of
them
,
and
the
nature
and
quality
of
things
contained
and
revealed
in
them
;
or
from
the
manner
of
the
Language
,
style
,
or
phrase
,
wherein
they
are
written
,
may
they
be
proved
to
come
from
God
?
What
is
the
first
of
these
Arguments
?
What
is
the
second
argument
from
the
matter
of
the
Scriptures
,
which
proveth
them
to
be
from
God
?
What
is
a
third
argument
drawn
from
the
matter
of
the
Scriptures
,
by
which
they
may
be
known
to
proceed
from
God
?
What
is
a
fourth
argument
affording
proof
from
the
matter
of
the
Scriptures
,
that
their
Authority
is
divine
.
What
is
a
fifth
argument
drawn
from
the
subject-matter
of
the
Scriptures
,
to
evince
their
descent
to
be
from
God
?
What
is
there
in
the
words
,
phrase
,
or
style
of
the
Scriptures
,
which
giveth
any
light
whereby
to
discern
them
to
be
from
God
?
Which
things
also
we
speak
not
in
the
words
,
which
mans
wisdome
teacheth
,
but
which
the
Holy
Ghost
teacheth
;
Comparing
spiritual
things
with
spiritual
,
What
other
considerations
are
there
,
besides
these
taken
from
the
Scriptures
themselves
,
which
any
waies
prove
them
to
be
from

,
and

How
can
you
prove
that
no
part
of
the
Scripture
is
lost
?

Oracles
of
God
Jewish
Nation
Is
every
thing
to
be
believed
as
a
truth
of
God
,
which
is
proved
by
the
Scriptures
?
How
may
a
solid
and
sufficient
Proof
of
a
Doctrine
from
the
Scriptures
,
be
distinguished
,
from
that
which
is
only
colourable
and
in
shew
?
But
how
may
a
true
and
sound
Opinion
,
or
Doctrine
,
be
discerned
from
that
which
is
false
?
What
is
your
other
Argument
of
the
latter
kind
,
to
prove
the
descent
of
the
Scriptures
to
be
from
God
?
.
What
are
the
Scriptures
?
Or
of
what
Books
,
or
Writings
do
they
consist
;
so
that
none
but
these
,
and
the
things
contained
in
them
,
ought
to
be
reputed
,
the
Scriptures
,
or
any
part
of
them
?

are
the
Books

What
are
the
writings
of

,
which
make
up
the
other
part
of
the
Scriptures
?
Matthew
,
Mark
,
Luke
Acts
of
the
Apostles
Why
should
these
Books
,
and
none
but
these
,
be
accounted
the
Scriptures
?
the
Oracles
of
God
YOu
have
affirmed
to
be
the
Son
of
God
,
and
of
the
Virgin
In
what
sense
,
or
respect
,
do
you
mean
,
that
he
is
the
Son
of
God
?
How
is
he
,
or
why
do
you
call
him
,
the
Son
of
God
by
Nature
?
How
is
the
Son
of
God
by
Creation
,
or
miraculous
Production
?
How
is
He
the
Son
of
God
by
Adoption
?
Why
do
you
affirm
him
to
be
also
the
Son
of
the
Virgin
But
is
it
not
contrary
to
reason
,
and
above
reason
,
to
believe
,
that
a
Virgin
should
conceive
,
and
bring
forth
a
Child
?
But
is
it
possible
that
the
two
Natures
,
Divine
,
and
Humane
,
so
vastly
,
yea
infinitely
differing
the
one
from
the
other
,
should
meet
together
so
as
to
constitute
and
make
one
and
the
same
Person
?
With
God
all
things
are
possible
The
things
which
are
unpossible
with
men
,
are
possible
with
God
But
was
not
a
compleat
Person
,
whilest
he
yet
subsisted
in
the
Divine
Nature
only
,
and
before
his
assuming
of
the
Nature
of
Man
unto
him
?
He
was
made
flesh
But
did
not
his
assuming
the
Nature
of
Man
into
Vnion
with
his
Divine
Person
,
destroy
the
truth
of
his
being
a
Person
;
causing
him
to
cease
from
being
a
Person
any
longer
,
and
to
become
some
other
thing
?
What
occasion
,
or
necessity
,
was
there
for
the
Incarnation
of
the
Son
of
God
;
or
that
should
become
Man
Was
it
then
necessary
for
the
Salvation
of
the
World
,
that
should
become
Man
In
what
respect
was
it
necessary
for
the
Salvation
of
the
World
,
that
should
be
Incarnate
,
and
made
Man
?
But
might
not
God
have
saved
the
World
,
without
the
Incarnation
of
his
Son
?
But
doth
the
Scripture
afford
any
ground
to
conceive
?
that
it
was
more
honourable
for
Him
to
save
the
World
by
means
of
his
Sons
being
made
Man
,
then
it
would
have
been
to
have
done
it
in
some
other
way
?
it
became
him
to
bring
many
Sons
unto
Glory
,
to
make
the
Captain
of
their
Salvation
perfect
through
sufferings
,
But
why
might
not
God
,
with
as
much
honour
to
himself
have
saved
the
World
by
an
Angel
,
or
by
the
Incarnation
of
an
Angel
,
as
by
the
Incarnation
of
his
Son
?
But
though
it
be
granted
that
the
Incarnation
of
the
Son
of
God
was
necessary
for
the
Redemption
and
Salvation
of
the
World
;
yet
whether
was
it
necessary
that
he
should
be
conceived
and
born
of
a
Virgin
,
and
not
in
the
ordinary
way
of
natural
Propagation
?
But
if
were
the
Son
of
a
Virgin
,
or
of
a
Woman
only
,
and
not
of
a
Man
also
;
Why
is
he
so
frequently
in
the
Scriptures
,
especially
in
the
Gospel
,
both
by
himself
and
others
,
styled
,
the
and
never
the
Son
of
a
Woman
?
made
of
a
Woman
the
first-born
Son
of
Mary
a

conceive
,
and
bring
forth

then

you
conceive

may
be
the

ground

that
Appellation

Son
of

WHat
necessity
was
there
,
that
for
the
Redemption
and
Salvation
of
Men
,
besides
his
being
incarnate
,
or
made
Man
,
should
live
,
and
converse
in
the
world
,
for
several
years
,
amongst

Or
,
If
his
life
had
been
taken
from
him
,
assoon
as
he
received
it
,
or
assoon
as
he
was
born
into
the
world
,
had
ii
not
been
sufficient
?
What
is
the
first
of
these
?
What
is
a
second
consideration
,
in
respect
of
which
it
was
necessary
that
should
live
to
the
compleat
age
of
a
Man
in
the
world
?
What
is
a
third
Consideration
inducing
the
said
necessity
?
offered
himself
unto
God
given
himself
a
ransom
for
all
,
laid
down
his
life
of
himself
,
What
is
the
fourth
and
last
of
the
said
Considerations
?
Religion
doth
not
only
teach
that
was
made
flesh
,
and
that
he
lived
in
the
world
to
Mans
estate
,
but
that
he
suffered
death
also
;
Was
there
any
necessity
of
this
for
the
work
of
Redemption
,
and
Salvation
of
men
?
How
,
or
what
,
doth
the
death
of
contribute
towards
the
Redemption
,
or
Salvation
,
of
the
World
?
But
for
whom
,
or
for
the
expiation
or
taking
away
of
whose
sins
,
did
Christ
suffer
death
?
Or
,
Whose
salvation
did
God
intend
by
it
?
gave
himself
a
ransome
for
all
men
,
would
give
his
flesh
for
the
life
of
the
World
,
that
he
was
made
a
little
lower
then
the
Angels
,
by
suffering
of
death
that
he
by
the
grace
of
God
might
tast
death
for
every
man
.
will
have
all
men
to
be
saved
,
he
is
not
willing
that
any
should
perish
,
but
that
all
should
come
to
repentance
,
But
if
dyed
for
all
men
,
and
God
intendeth
,
or
willeth
,
the
Salvation
of
all
men
by
him
,
How
cometh
it
to
passe
that
all
men
are
not
saved
?
Or
,
Shall
all
men
be
saved
by
him
?
Doth
then
the
Faith
of
men
give
efficacy
,
or
vertue
to
the
Death
of
so
that
with
it
,
it
is
able
to
save
them
,
but
without
it
,
it
is
not
able
?
But
if
God
intendeth
the
Salvation
of
all
men
,
in
or
by
the
death
of
Will
not
his
intentions
in
this
kind
be
made
frustrate
,
unlesse
all
men
be
saved
?
But
if
by
his
death
satisfied
for
the
sins
of
all
men
,
is
not
God
unjust
to
punish
any
man
for
that
,
for
which
he
hath
received
full
satisfaction
?
But
was
it
necessarie
for
the
work
of
Redemption
,
or
expiation
of
sin
,
that
should
suffer
death
?
would
not
lesser
,
or
lighter
sufferings
susteyned
by
him
,
in
respect
of
the
dignity
of
his
person
,
have
been
sufficiently
availeable
thereunto
?
What
manner
,
or
kind
,
of
death
was
it
that
Why
did
he
suffer
this
kind
of
death
rather
then
any
other
?
under
the
curse
of
the
Law
But
if
by
his
death
fully
satisfied
the
justice
of
God
for
the
sin
of
man

of
mankind
,
how
cometh
it
to

yea
believers

as
well
as
others
,
are
punished

death

Whether

,

he
is

afford
unto
all

themselves

What
Faith
,
or
what
kind
of
Faith
is
it
,
which
is
required
of
a
Person
in
praying
,
to
render
his
Prayer
accepted
with
God
?
Is
it
only
a
justifying
Faith
;
Or
is
it
a
Faith
or
belief
,
that
God
heareth
,
or
regardeth
our
Prayer
?
Or
is
it
a
Faith
,
or
Belief
,
that
God
will
grant
,
or
give
unto
us
,
that
which
we
desire
of
him
in
our
Praier
?
Or
is
it
some
other
kind
of
Faith
differing
from
all
these
?
But
if
such
a
Faith
as
this
availeth
(
in
conjunction
with
the
terms
or
conditions
now
mentioned
)
to
the
acceptation
of
our
Prayer
with
God
,
may
not
he
that
prayeth
be
filled
with
assurance
,
and
this
ordinarily
,
that
he
shall
receive
from
God
the
very
self-same
thing
,
or
in
the
letter
(
as
we
use
to
say
)
which
he
prayeth
for
,
whatever
it
be
,
as
whether
it
concerns
his
temporal
comfort
in
this
world
,
or
his
eternall
well-being
in
that
which
is
to
come
?
For
it
seemeth
no
hard
matter
for
him
that
hath
any
competent
knowledge
of
God
,
to
believe
stedfastly
,
both
that
he
heareth
,
and
regardeth
the
Prayers
of
all
good
men
,
and
likewise
that
he
wanteth
neither
goodnesse
of
will
,
towards
them
,
nor
power
,
to
grant
them
their
desire
.
Or
may
both
these
be
in
God
,
and
yet
such
men
be
denied
the
good
thing
they
ask
in
Prayer
of
him
?
But
is
not
this
a
great
discouragement
unto
prayer
,
at
least
for
temporal
things
,
that
he
that
prayeth
,
can
have
no
full
assurance
of
obtaining
what
he
desireth
?
What
may
be
the
reason
,
why
God
at
any
time
denieth
that
temporall
good
thing
,
which
is
sought
at
his
hand
by
Prayer
,
when
both
the
person
that
prayeth
pleaseth
him
,
and
the
prayer
likewise
pleaseth
him
,
his
whole
will
and
pleasure
concerning
this
duty
being
carefully
and
conscientiously
observed
in
the
managing
of
it
,
at
least
as
farre
as
the
understanding
of
a
Man
is
able
to
discern
,
and
judge
?
to
help
and
deliver
righteous
men
out
of
the
hand
of
the
wicked
,
and
to
save
them
,
because
they
trust
in
him
,
See
ver.
But
doth
not
the
Scripture
require
a
particular
Faith
in
him
that
prayeth
,
that
he
shall
receive
,
even
in
kind
,
the
good
things
which
he
seeks
of
God
in
Prayer
(
whether
it
be
of
the
good
things
of
this
Life
,
or
of
that
which
is
to
come
)
not
promising
any
return
of
a
mans
Prayer
from

such
a
Faith
?

are
the
things

are
to

What

of
the

of

,
which
inferiours
owe
unto
their

?
What
are

the

,
which
the
superiour
,
which
you
terme
may
justly
,
and
his
due
,
expect
from
his

?
Is
there
any
other
species
,
or
under-kind
,
of
that
sort
,
or
kind
of
Superiour
,
which
you
call
,
naturall
?
What
are
the
duties
which
younger
persons
owe
unto
those
,
that
are
ancient
?
What
are
the
duties
wherein
the
wife
stands
bound
unto
the

?
What
is

that
inferior
in

,
or

,
for

,
as
in

,
knowledge

,
by

,
towards

whom
God
in

endowments
,
hath
made
superiour
to
them
?
What
are
the
duties
,
which
inferiours
are
in
this
Commandement
,
charged
with
towards
those
that
are
their
superiours
in
a
Politique
,
or
civill
consideration
,
as
Magistrates
,
or
rulers
in
the
civill
state
,
and
masters
over
servants
?
What
is
here
required
of
servants
as
due
from
them
unto
their
Masters
?
What
are
the
duties
,
wherein
we
stand
obliged
towards
our
Superiours
in
a
spiritual
or
Church-consideration
,
as
Pastors
and
Teachers
,
and
such
as
are
over
us
in
the
Lord
?
You
have
declared
the
duties
,
which
God
in
this
fifth
Commandement
requireth
of
inferiours
to
perform
unto
their
superiours
of
all
the
three
orders
or
kinds
,
Natural
,
Political
,
and
Spiritual
.
Now
inasmuch
as
you
taught
us
formerly
,
that
where
the
duties
of
Inferiours
towards
their
Superiours
are
commanded
,
there
the
Superiours
are
likewise
charged
with
reciprocall
deportments
in
the
nature
of
duties
,
towards
their
Inferiours
;
Will
you
please
further
to
declare
,
what
God
here
injoyneth
Superiours
(
according
to
the
respective
kinds
of
superiority
mentioned
)
to
perform
unto
their
Inferiours
?
Only
by
the
way
,
giving
us
an
account
,
if
you
be
able
,
why
God
might
please
to
signifie
and
expresse
superiours
of
all
kinds
,
by
the
names
of
naturall
Parents
,
as
also
,
why
the
Commandement
plainly
,
and
in
termes
imposeth
upon
children
(
and
in
them
upon
all
other
inferiours
likewise
)
their
duties
towards
their
Superiours
,
leaving
these
to
understand
,
or
take
notice
of
their
charge
,
by
way
of
consequence
only
,
or
from
the
admonitions
,
or
demands
,
of
their
consciences
,
being
diligently
informed
by
the
Scriptures
concerning
it
?
But
first
(
I
pray
you
)
your
answer
to
the
former
of
these
.
Have
you
any
thing
for
an
answer
to
the
latter
of
the
two
Questions
lately
proposed
?
Fathers
and
Mothers
Now
if
you
please
,
declare
(
with
what
brevity
you
can
)
the
duties
which
God
,
in
this
Commandement
,
requireth
of
superiours
in
all
the
three
kinds
you
mentioned
,
towards
their
inferiours
,
respectively
;
beginning
with
the
duties
of
those
,
who
are
by
nature
such
,
and
so
proceeding
unto
the
others
.
And
first
,
what
are
the
duties
of
Parents
,
towards
their
Children
What
doth
God
require
of
those
by
way
of
duty
towards
the
younger
,
whom
the
priviledge
of
age
hath
made
their
Superiours
(
as
hath
been
said
?
)
What
are
the
duties
of
Husbands
towards
their
Wives
?
What
is
required
of
Superiours
in
guifts
towards
weaker
What
is
required
of
the
Politique
superiour
,
whether
magistrate
or
master
,
in
reference
unto
those
that
are
under
them
,
and
subject
unto
them
(
r
spectively
)
.
What
are
the
duties
which
God
requireth
of
Ecclesiastical
,
or
Church-Superiours
,
(
I
mean
)
Pastors
,
and
Teachers
of
particular
Congregations
,
in
reference
to
the
people
under
their
several
charges
(

What
may
be
the
reason
why
a
promise
of
temporal
good
things
should
be
annexed
to
this
fifth
Commandement
,
and
not
any
promise
at
all
unto
any
other
Commandement
of
the
second
Table
?
Cursed
be
he
that
continueth
not
in
all
things
,
&c.

How
doth
the
Apostle
affirm
this
fifth
Commandement
,
to
be
when
as
we
find
,
as
well
a
promise
(
as
we
formerly
touched
)
as
a
threatning
,
in
the
second
Commandement
;
as
namely
that
God
will
first
Commandement
with
promise
May
there
be
any
reason
conceived
why
the
Commandement
injoyning
the
honouring
of
Parents
,
and
other
Superiours
,
should
have
place
in
the
Decalogue
before
those
,
which
prohibit
Murther
and
Adultery
;
it
being
commonly
supposed
that
the
sins
committed
against
the
former
Commandements
,
are
greater
then
those
against
the
latter
?
You
have
declared
the
duties
of
inferiours
,
and
Superiours
(
in
all
kinds
)
mutually
:
will
you
please
to
declare
likewise

a
very

words

stand
charged

in
this
Commandement

From

unto

God

Whether
may
Infants
,
or
young
Children
,
lawfully
be
baptized
,
considering
that
they
are
not
able
to
give
any
testimony
,
as
either
by
a
profession
of
their
Faith
,
and
Repentance
,
or
otherwise
of
their
being
in
the
favor
of
God
;
and
besides
,
there
is
no
record
found
in
the
Scripture
,
that
mentioneth
the
baptizing
of
any
Infant
?
Abraham
himself
was
years
old
,
and
Ishmael
years
old
and
all
the
men
of
his
house
,
born
in
the
house
,
and
bought
with
money
of
the
stranger
were
circumcised
with
him
,
John
the
Baptist
persons
of
mankinde
known
to
be
in
favor
with
God
,
may
lawfully
be
baptized
,
If
it
could
be
known
that
children
are
in
the
favor
of
God
,
I
should
not
doubt
but
that
they
might
be
baptized
.
By
the
way
,
he
that
speaketh
and
conceiveth
thus
,
clearly
granteth
and
supposeth
(
with
us
)
that
when
Faith
,
or
Repentance
,
or
the
profession
of
either
,
were
required
by
the
Apostles
,
or
others
,
in
men
and
women
,
that
were
to
be
baptized
,
they
were
not
required
of
them
in
any
other
respect
,
or
consideration
,
but
only
as
being
professed
,
they
were
a
testimony
(
though
far
from
infallible
too
,
and
only
such
,
which
very
possibly
might
,
and
sometimes
did
,
deceive
them
,
as
in
the
case
of
Simon
Magus
,
&c.
)
of
their
being
in
favor
with
God
.
Nor
is
it
lightly
imaginable
upon
what
other
account
they
should
have
been
required
to
make
profession
of
them
,
in
order
to
their
baptizing
.
So
that
if
it
shall
by
any
other
argument
,
or
proof
,
appear
as
certainly
[
that
is
,
as
probably
,
for
there
was
no
higher
proof
,
in
a
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
,
then
what
was
only
probable
,
as
was
lately
hinted
,
that
men
and
women
were
in
favour
with
God
]
that
children
,
or
others
,
are
in
favor
with
God
,
as
it
could
appear
by
their
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
,
this
must
needs
render
them
subiects
as
regularly
qualified
for
Baptisme
,
as
such
a
profession
,
were
it
made
by
them
,
should
〈◊〉
The
Baptisme
of
the
Lord
Christ
,
was
(
●●estionless
)
as
lawful
and
regular
,
as
the
Baptisme
of
any
other
person
.
Himself
implieth
as
much
,
when
to
satisfie
John
about
his
baptizing
him
,
he
saith
to
him
,
Suffer
it
to
be
so
now
:
for
thus
it
becometh
us
to
fulfil
all
RIGHTEOUSNESS
,
Mat.
3.15
.
And
yet
he
made
no
profession
of
Faith
,
or
Repentance
,
nor
was
he
indeed
)
capable
of
them
,
especially
not
of
the
latter
,
having
never
sinned
;
no
,
nor
of
the
former
in
such
a
sense
of
the
word
,
Faith
,
wherein
believers
unto
justification
did
,
and
do
at
this
day
,
make
profession
of
it
.
Therefore
that
which
qualified
him
regularly
for
Baptisme
,
was
,
his
being
known
,
especially
unto
John
,
to
be
in
favour
with
God
.
Upon
a
like
account
the
Apostle
Peter
also
caused
those
to
be
baptized
without
any
more
adoe
[
I
mean
,
without
any
particular
,
or
solemn
profession
of
their
Faith
and
Repentance
]
unto
whom
he
perceived
that
God
had
given
the
gift
of
the
Holy
Ghost
,
interpreting
this
as
a
sign
that
they
were
in
favor
with
God
;
Can
any
man
(
saith
he
)
forbid
water
,
that
these
should
not
be
baptized
,
who
have
received
the
Holy
Ghost
,
as
well
as
we
?
Acts
10.47
.
Other
instances
of
like
import
might
be
produced
.
So
that
the
truth
of
the
major
proposition
[
that
persons
known
,
or
that
with
probability
may
be
hoped
,
to
be
in
favor
with
God
,
may
lawfully
be
baptized
]
is
unquestionable
.
Nor
can
I
apprehend
that
such
men
keep
company
with
their
principles
,
who
subscribing
this
truth
(
as
we
lately
heard
that
some
of
the
leading
men
amongst
the
Anti-paedo-Baptists
themselvs
do
)
are
yet
non-conformists
as
to
Infant-Baptisme
.
For
even
such
a
reprobation
of
,
or
amongst
children
granted
,
as
the
Anti-Remonstrant
party
of
them
supposeth
,
yet
is
there
as
large
a
ground
of
hope
(
or
however
,
not
much
less
)
that
particular
children
,
especially
children
of
an
holy
extraction
,
one
,
or
both
of
whose
Parents
are
truly
godly
,
are
in
the
favor
of
God
,
as
that
men
and
women
should
be
in
his
favor
,
who
make
an
outward
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
.
If
it
be
said
,
that
frequent
experience
hath
shewed
that
the
Children
of
good
Parents
have
proved
Reprobates
,
the
answer
is
at
hand
,
namely
,
that
the
like
experience
hath
shewed
the
like
sad
event
and
issue
in
many
,
that
have
made
an
oral
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
,
who
notwithstanding
were
found
in
the
gall
of
bitterness
,
and
bands
of
iniquity
afterwards
.
And
though
it
could
be
made
to
appear
that
there
is
more
hope
,
that
persons
,
who
having
arrived
at
year
of
discretion
,
and
shall
make
a
profession
of
their
Faith
,
are
in
favor
with
God
,
then
Infants
lately
born
,
though
of
godly
Parents
,
and
that
more
such
Infants
have
in
time
proved
Reprobates
,
then
of
the
others
,
yet
neither
doth
this
prove
,
that
Infants
ought
not
to
be
baptized
,
although
the
other
may
.
For
(
according
to
the
known
rule
in
reason
,
Magis
&
minùs
non
variat
speciem
,
More
or
less
do
not
alter
the
species
,
or
kindes
of
things
)
greater
hope
,
that
one
person
is
in
favor
with
God
,
doth
not
make
any
such
difference
between
him
,
and
another
,
concerning
whom
there
is
somewhat
less
hope
of
his
being
in
favor
with
him
likewise
,
as
that
the
former
should
be
a
subject
duly
qualified
for
Baptisme
,
and
not
the
latter
.
And
for
as
great
a
difference
of
the
hope
we
speak
of
,
concerning
person
and
person
,
(
doubtless
)
it
may
be
,
and
frequently
is
,
found
,
even
amongst
,
and
between
,
those
,
who
make
an
oral
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
,
some
of
these
giving
a
better
and
more
satisfactory
testimony
of
the
truth
of
their
Faith
,
then
some
others
.
So
that
they
who
grant
,
that
a
reasonable
and
probable
hope
that
a
person
is
in
the
love
and
favor
of
God
,
duly
qualifieth
him
for
Baptisme
,
cannot
reasonably
deny
,
but
that
Children
,
at
least
some
Children
(
and
in
particular
,
those
lately
specified
,
who
in
Scripture
are
termed
Holy
,
1
Cor.
7.14
.
)
are
thus
qualified
,
and
consequently
may
lawfully
be
baptized
.
Yea
,
all
they
who
grant
,
and
yield
,
that
a
vocal
and
personal
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
,
giveth
a
regular
and
due
title
unto
Baptisme
(
which
the
whole
universe
of
Anti-paedo-Baptists
do
)
if
they
would
be
so
ingenuous
as
to
follow
their
own
concessions
in
the
case
,
and
not
notion
,
or
interpret
,
a
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
,
in
the
nature
of
a
charm
,
or
a
spell
,
but
rationally
,
and
spiritually
,
these
would
turn
them
aside
from
the
way
of
their
error
,
and
lead
them
unto
Infant-Baptisme
(
which
is
the
way
of
the
truth
)
For
if
a
profession
of
Faith
and
Repentance
,
doth
not
qualifie
for
Baptisme
in
respect
of
the
literal
sound
of
the
words
uttered
,
but
as
it
exhibiteth
,
or
affordeth
a
ground
of
hope
,
that
men
and
women
who
so
profess
are
the
children
of
God
,
and
so
in
favor
with
him
(
for
in
what
other
consideration
it
should
so
qualifie
,
is
not
lightly
imaginable
)
then
there
being
a
ground
of
hope
,
and
this
altogether
as
pregnant
,
that
Children
are
partakers
of
the
same
grace
and
favor
of
God
with
them
,
they
must
needs
be
as
regularly
qualified
for
Baptisme
,
as
they
.
Nay
,
if
the
regularness
of
a
Baptismal
capacity
be
to
be
estimated
by
a
reasonable
ground
of
hope
that
a
person
is
a
Childe
of
God
,
and
in
favor
with
him
,
young
Children
have
the
preheminence
at
this
turn
above
any
,
above
all
,
the
men
and
women
,
that
have
ever
yet
made
,
or
ever

make
,
a

of
their
Faith
.
For

John
argueth
,
If

of

,
the

of

is
