As their sins are not forgiven them till they are Converted, Mark 4. 12. So they must not be baptized for the forgiveness of them, till they profess themselves Converted, seeing to the Church non esse and non apparere is all one.

Therefore, saith he, both those must by a Profession seem to be received, before any at Age are baptized. page 30, 31. and evident it is, say I, from hence that none but such at Age ought to be baptized.
