all_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v and_o in_o much_o as_o he_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o thing_n he_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o own_o wisdom_n neither_o be_v god_n at_o any_o time_n without_o

a_o man_n in_o that_o mind_n that_o i_o be_o of_o concern_v the_o cause_n of_o god_n election_n and_o reprobation_n his_o will_n and_o purpose_n which_o can_v never_o be_v want_v in_o he_o neither_o

those_o that_o be_v refuse_v but_o we_o hold_v not_o that_o this_o be_v do_v without_o christ_n and_o therefore_o cerberus_n labour_v more_o than_o need_v to_o prove_v by_o scripture_n that_o our_o

the_o election_n that_o be_v in_o god_n purpose_n and_o will_n be_v not_o without_o christ_n the_o mercyseate_a and_o mediator_n betwixt_o god_n and_o man_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o first_o of_o cerberus_n his_o two_o reason_n now_o a_o few_o word_n to_o his_o second_o reason_n and_o so_o a_o end_n first_o cerberus_n do_v in_o this_o reason_n flat_o affirm_v that_o god_n do_v not_o love_v the_o world_n nor_o give_v his_o son_n for_o the_o world_n before_o his_o wrath_n be_v appease_v by_o the_o mediation_n of_o his_o son_n whereupon_o it_o follow_v that_o there_o be_v a_o time_n wherein_o god_n be_v wroth_a with_o the_o world_n and_o not_o pacify_v by_o his_o son_n which_o doctrine_n be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v a_o mediator_n but_o in_o the_o close_n up_o of_o the_o matter_n he_o overthrow_v that_o again_o affirm_v that_o christ_n have_v pacify_v the_o wrath_n of_o his_o father_n not_o only_o now_o in_o time_n but_o also_o everlasting_o in_o the_o most_o high_a and_o eternal_a purpose_n of_o god_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n be_v lay_v hitherto_o he_o have_v fight_v against_o we_o but_o now_o in_o the_o conclusion_n he_o join_v with_o we_o call_v the_o purpose_n of_o god_n eternal_a and_o most_o high_a and_o what_o be_v that_o but_o to_o affirm_v all_o that_o we_o teach_v concern_v the_o cause_n of_o election_n and_o

and_o yet_o have_v a_o reverend_a opinion_n of_o the_o one_o do_v detest_v and_o abhor_v the_o error_n of_o the_o other_o well_o i_o may_v not_o be_v so_o short_a in_o this_o matter_n as_o cerberus_n

mind_n to_o make_v the_o
not_o teach_v that_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o any_o evil_a or_o sin_n at_o all_o in_o vain_a therefore_o do_v cerberus_n make_v his_o antitesis_n or_o comparison_n of_o contraries_n when_o he_o say_v the_o one_o affirm_v that_o the_o predestination_n of_o god_n be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o adam_n sin_n and_o so_o consequentlye_o of_o all_o evil_a and_o the_o other_o affirm_v direct_o contrary_a that_o god_n or_o his_o predestination_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o no_o sin_n or_o evil_a and_o much_o more_o vain_a be_v it_o that_o he_o cit_v so_o many_o testimony_n of_o scripture_n to_o that_o purpose_n for_o i_o affirm_v that_o which_o he_o will_v make_v man_n believe_v i_o deny_v and_o deny_v that_o which_o he_o will_v have_v man_n to_o think_v i_o do_v affirm_v but_o one_o thing_n i_o will_v glad_o learn_v of_o cerberus_n that_o be_v where_o he_o find_v either_o in_o scripture_n or_o in_o ancient_a writer_n that_o adam_n fall_n be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o evil_a we_o may_v manifest_o prove_v by_o scripture_n that_o sin_n be_v before_o adam_n fall_v otherwise_o there_o can_v have_v be_v no_o tempter_n to_o entice_v he_o to_o sin_n for_o god_n tempt_v no_o man_n to_o evil_a and_o man_n have_v in_o himself_o no_o concupiscence_n 1._o or_o lust_n to_o sin_n therefore_o evil_a be_v before_o adam_n fall_v and_o consequent_o adam_n shall_fw-mi be_v not_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o evil_a saint_n austen_n in_o the_o ix_o chapter_n of_o his_o first_o book_n of_o retractation_n say_v that_o when_o he_o with_o other_o have_v diligent_o search_v from_o whence_o evil_a may_v spring_v it_o be_v agree_v upon_o among_o they_o that_o it_o have_v none_o other_o fountain_n than_o the_o free_a choice_n of_o the_o will_n man_n fall_n can_v not_o then_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o evil_a for_o there_o be_v evil_a in_o angel_n before_o man_n be_v make_v and_o that_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o free_a choice_n of_o the_o will_n that_o be_v in_o the_o angel_n but_o grant_v that_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n have_v be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o evil_a may_v not_o god_n predestination_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o man_n fall_n but_o it_o must_v straight_o way_n follow_v consequentlye_o that_o the_o same_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o the_o evil_a that_o spring_v thereof_o then_o tell_v i_o master_n cerberus_n how_o it_o may_v be_v that_o god_n predestination_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o the_o evil_a that_o spring_v of_o the_o free_a choice_n of_o will_n for_o this_o you_o will_v not_o deny_v i_o be_o sure_a that_o god_n have_v predestinate_v both_o man_n and_o angel_n to_o have_v the_o free_a choice_n of_o wil._n and_o he_o will_v alone_o according_a to_o which_o he_o have_v predestinate_v all_o thing_n be_v the_o cause_n why_o man_n and_o angel_n have_v the_o free_a choice_n of_o wil._n shall_v we_o say_v therefore_o that_o consequent_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o evil_a because_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o that_o whereout_o all_o evilles_n do_v spring_n no_o thou_o hell_n hound_n not_o so_o god_n be_v altogether_o good_a and_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o goodness_n and_o from_o he_o can_v spring_v nothing_o that_o be_v not_o good_a all_o those_o thing_n therefore_o that_o spring_n out_o of_o the_o free_a choice_n of_o the_o will_n be_v exceed_o good_a as_o god_n or_o his_o predestination_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o they_o and_o the_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o they_o come_v of_o the_o instrument_n whereby_o god_n do_v work_v those_o thing_n i_o pray_v you_o therefore_o look_v better_o upon_o

shall_v upon_o a_o month_n warning_n require_v to_o see_v the_o place_n where_o s._n austen_n write_v those_o word_n it_o will_v be_v hard_a for_o cerberus_n to_o show_v it_o he_o and_o therefore_o i_o blame_v he_o not_o though_o he_o have_v not_o quote_v the_o place_n but_o to_o do_v he_o a_o pleasure_n i_o have_v seek_v it_o in_o s._n austin_n work_n and_o find_v it_o in_o decimo_fw-la

his_o meaning_n be_v true_a let_v we_o weigh_v the_o word_n of_o s._n austen_n therefore_o and_o see_v how_o his_o meaning_n may_v be_v true_a &_o yet_o agree_v with_o the_o doctrine_n that_o we_o teach_v the_o predestination_n of_o god_n say_v he_o have_v neither_o stir_v up_o counsel_v nor_o enforce_v the_o fall_v of_o they_o that_o do_v rush_v down_o headlong_o nor_o the_o malignity_n of_o they_o that_o be_v wicked_a nor_o the_o desire_n of_o they_o that_o do_v sin_n but_o doubtless_o he_o have_v predestinate_v his_o judgement_n whereby_o he_o will_v reward_v everye_o man_n according_a to_o his_o do_n whether_o the_o same_o be_v good_a or_o evil_n which_o judgement_n shall_v not_o be_v if_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o man_n shall_v sin_v i_o have_v translate_v these_o

and_o how_o they_o make_v with_o we_o or_o against_o us._n saint_n austen_n teach_v that_o god_n predestination_n do_v not_o stir_v up_o entice_v or_o enforce_v any_o man_n to_o shall_fw-mi to_o be_v

austin_n meaning_n i_o understand_v his_o meaning_n to_o be_v that_o when_o man_n do_v fall_v be_v wicked_a or_o desire_v to_o sin_n his_o will_n be_v not_o by_o god_n predestination_n stir_v up_o
