none of them an Tnftance to produce ? If you thusrefufc to<br />

produce it, the People will think you have none to give.<br />

Notvvithftanding tbif;, none of them could be prevailed upon<br />

to do it, althoughthey were called upon, and challenged to<br />

give any cne Inftance (where it was fo written) if they could.<br />

Whereupon Dr Rujfd fpake to this EfFtft, Gentlemen, It<br />

may be you think I have but one Argu«Bent ; if you will fay<br />

no more to this, I am not willing to tire our the Auditory ,<br />

I will therefore proceed to a New Argument.<br />

But take notice (by the way) that my firft Argument ftands<br />

good, till you give your Inftance to the contrary.<br />

^rg. 2. If Infants are nflt capable to be made Difc'ples of<br />

Chrift by the Miniftry of Men, ihen they cannot pofilbly-be<br />

the Sub|i'£ts of Baptifm intended in Chrifl's Commiffion.<br />

^nz Infants are not capable to be made Difciplss of Chrifl<br />

by the Miniftry of Men.<br />

Brgo^ They cannot poOibly be thf Subje£is of Baptifm ia«<br />

tended in Ghrift*s Commiffion.<br />

Mr. Chandler repeats the Argument,and then faich,Here if you<br />

mean by being made Difciples, aSualand compleat Difciples,<br />

I deny your Major: But if you mean fuch as are entered into^<br />

a School and given up to InftruQ:ion, then f deny your Minor.<br />

Dr.,Ru[felRepszts his Major, and defires Mr. Chand/er to tdl<br />

h<strong>im</strong> what he denies in it. For (faith he)!Tty Words are plain,<br />

to be made Difciples by the Miniftry of Men.<br />

Mr. Roknfo7i. Mr. Chandler di^inguifhes between Compleat<br />

and Incompleat Difciples.<br />

Dr. RuJ^el.Bm what then doth he mean by denying my Major?<br />

Mr. Robin fan. He denies , that thsy that cannot be made<br />

compleat Difciples, are not intended in the Commtiffion.<br />

I hope the Reader will obferve how often Mr Chandler \vz%<br />

at a lofs, and Mr. Lsigh and Mr, Rohinfon were forced to help<br />

h<strong>im</strong> out with their Didindions and equivocsble ExpicfHons.<br />

Here Dr. Rujfel (feeing thev would not be brought to give<br />

any dlreft Anfwerj turns his Kypcthetical into a Categorical<br />

Syllogifm.<br />

Whofoever are uncapable to be made Difciples by the Miniftry<br />

of Men, they cannot be theSubjedsW" Baptifm intended<br />

in Chrift's Commiflion :<br />

'<br />

^<br />

But Infants are uncapable to be made Difciples |?y the Miniflryof<br />

Men;<br />

*<br />

Erge, They cansot be the Subje£l:s of Baptifm intended In<br />

Chrift's CommJilion.<br />

^<br />

Now let Mr. Chandler tell me what he mean^by being made<br />

Compleat, or Incompleat Difciples by the Mlnil>ery cf M"p<br />

2<br />

(according to my Argumrcnr) if he can. .<br />
