Excerpt from Infant Baptism, an Important Part of the System of Means Adopted by God for the Religious Instructions in Order to the Salvation of Apostate Men, as Taught in the Bible: A Sermon, Preached at Medway, August 25th, 1833 "For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all, that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call." Beloved Brethren: It is, as I believe, and as you all will doubtless acknowledge, a lamentable: fact, that notwithstanding all that has been said and written on infant baptism, few, very few, among us do have such clear, consistent, and satisfactory views of this subject, as to set their minds entirely at rest on it, and to enable them with meekness and readiness to give to every one, that asketh them, a scriptural reason for their peculiar faith and practice on this particular point. Of this fact I am thoroughly convinced by my own observation. In private conversations with many of you from time to time on this subject, I have generally found, that whilst you are decidedly pædobaptists in sentiment, and esteem it both a blessed privilege, and a binding duty, to devote your children to Gorin baptism; yet, that your minds are not so thoroughly informed, and so perfectly clear, on this subject, as to free you from every doubt, and to enable you with the confidence of truth, to stand up boldly in defence of your peculiar sentiment, so often as it is assailed by those, who hold a different opinion. Now, this want of clear, scriptural views of this subject, which, if I mistake not, does too generally prevail, may, I think, be traced to two causes: First. The, to me, truly astonishing silence, which, until within a few years past, has been rigidly maintained among us by both ministers and people on this subject.
