1. Consider as I said before,
1. That all Believers, God himself doth require or Command in his Word to enter into this Baptismal Covenant.
2. And they before they enter into it, have a principle of divine life infused into their Soul, or Grace implanted in their Hearts, having passed under the work of Regeneration, being dead to Si• (of which Baptism is a lively Symbol) or is as your Church says, an outward sign of an inward spiritual Grace. Not as Mr. Baxter observes, a Sign or Symbol of future, but of present Regeneration, which is confirmed by what St. Paul Teaches, Rom. 6. 3, 4.

And they before they enter into it, have a principle of divine life infused into their Soul, or Grace implanted in their Hearts, having passed under the work of Regeneration, being dead to Si• (of which Baptism is a lively Symboll) or is as your Church says, an outward sign of an inward spiritual Grace. Not as Mr. Baxter observes, a Sign or Simbol of future, but of present Regeneration, which is confirmed by what St. Paul Teaches, Rom. 6. 3, 4.
