Vindiciae Foederis; Or, A Treatise Of The Covenant of God Entered With Man-Kinde, In the several Kindes and Degrees of it, In Which The agreement and respective differences of the Covenant of Works and the Covenant of Grace, of the Old and New Covenant are discust. The Conditions of the Covenant of Grace on mans part, are assigned and asserted. The just latitude and extent clearly held forth, and fully vindicated. Several Corollaries containing many heads of Divinity, now controverted, and practical points singularly useful, inferred. In particular the necessity of a constant settled Ministry (to bring men into Covenant, and to bring them up to the termes of it,) and of Schooles, and Nurseries of Learning, and an orderly call in tendency to it. Infant Baptisme in that latitude, as now in use in reformed Churches maintained. Newly corrected and much enlarged, & in many places cleared by its Author. Thomas Blake, late Minister of the Gospel, at Tamworth in the Counties of Stafford and Warwick. Whereunto is annexed, a Sermon preached at his Funeral by Mr.Anthony Burgesse, and a Funeral Oration made at his death by Mr.Samuel Shaw
