The Separatists Answer.

Now seeing that the Infants of believing parents were members of the Church of God, and circumcised by Gods appointment, as well as their parents; the Infants of believers have as great a priviledge now: for Gods hand is not shortened. But let none presume to say that all the seed of Christ are to be baptized so soon as they are born, unless they could or would prove it: for persons may have right to an Ordinance, and yet through some occasions and reasons may be hindered from it. But there is a time for all things.
