146. Question.
But what if in the mean time the child dye?
But what if in the meane tyme the childe dye?
Answer. Surely the child it self, shall not bear the blame: and we have said often times already, that it is not the want of baptism, but the contempt of it in it self, that maketh a man unworthy of the benefit of the covenant.
Answeare. Surely the chylde it selfe, shall not beare the blame: and we haue sayd often tymes alreadie, that it is not the want of baptisme, but the contempt of it in it selfe, that maketh a man vnwoorthie of the benefite of the couenant.
Question. But the Lord witnesseth that it shall come to pass, that whosoever is not circumcised, shall be cut off. Genes. 17. 14.
