Excerpt from Infant-Baptism From Heaven, and Not of Men, or an Answer to Mr. Danvers His Treatise of Baptism: Wherein, as the Vanity of His Authorities Are, Though Briefly, Yet Sufficiently Detected; So His Doctrinal Part Is Especially Examined and Confuted, and Infants Right to Baptism Further Confirmed Both thefe he attempts to prove by Scripture, by Reafon, and Humane Authority and though he would feem to make no great account of hu mane Authority, yet itfeemsimpo ible to me, that any man of a competent underfianding {bould arife to fuch a height of confidence, as to the truth of his Aiiertions, as he is arrived to, had he not other grounds for it, than what he hath produced, either from Scripture or Reafon. Alas! What a poor Pamphlet would his Treatife be, were all his humane Authori ties pared off, and it left to defend its Caufe, meetly by that evidence of Scripture and Reafon it is furniihed with; how evidently would the Scriptures, at leat't the molt of them appear to be but meer repetitions of fuch Scriptures as have been anfwered again and again 3 without any {hew of fatisfaetion given to thofe nu fwers, or the leafi additional enforcement re ceived from his application or improvement of them to his purpofe.
