Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Why Have You Become a Pædobaptist?, Vol. 4: A Dialogue, Between Hezekiah Hastie, a Baptist, and Simon Searche, a Pædobaptist, Containing an Answer to Two Publications, Circulated in the Borough of Stroud, by Amator Veritatis, the One Entitled, "Baptism Discussed, &C.", And the Other, "Why Have You It is not unusual for many of the Members of that Denomiuation Trhose sentiments respecting Baptism are here examined, to manifest a considerable degree of irritation, should Pædobaptists venture to assert their principles. SVe need not say that such displeasure is as unphilosophic as it is antichristian. Liberty to assert and defend our sentiments is one of those high privileges of which we boast as Protestants; and the liberty we use ourselves, we ought to grant to others, being fully assured that Truth can never suffer anything from investigation. To impose silence upon our opponents would betray a great want of confidence in our own system, and the reasons by which it is supported. The writer of the present publication, however, can scarcely displease the most intolerant opponent, because the work which he has examined contains "a challenge to the whole corps of Pædobaptists," and he has therefore merely taken up the gauntlet which was thus publicly thrown down. It was some time before the challenge was accepted, for the arguments advanced by Amator Seritatis, were in themselves so destitute of any force that could influence a reflecting mind, and, moreover, had been so repeatedly and triumphantly answered, that it was for a while deemed unnecessary to notice them at all. This silence, however, was construed into a perfect defeat, and the author, Amator Veritatis, is well known to have asserted, that his own work "Never had been Answered, and never could be Answered!" "His cheap desideratum for Baptists" was therefore circulated with fresh spirit, and was epitomized, that, in its still cheaper form, it might have a more extensive range and influence, and scarcely was there a peradventure, that the whole borough would become one vast Baptist community.
