An essay to revive the primitive doctrine and practice of infant-baptism in the resolution of four questions. I. What are the reasons of God s appointing the token of the covenant to be applyed to the infant-seed of his people? II. What is the good or benefit they receive thereby? III. What is the duty of parents towards their children as bearing the token of the covenant? IV. What is the improvement that children as grown up to years of maturity, may and ought to make of the token, as applyed to them in their infancy. By Joseph Whiston, minister of the gospel.

Whiston, Joseph
