as_o much_o as_o they_o do_v or_o can_v do_v in_o truth_n in_o pretence_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o they_o may_v deal_v w●th_v it_o as_o they_o deal_v with_o god_n grace_n make_v show_n as_o if_o ●hey_n

the_o jew_n sometime_o crown_v christ_n with_o thorn_n so_o do_v these_o crown_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n with_o scorn_n but_o the_o true_a difference_n between_o we_o be_v not_o in_o ascribe_v or_o deny_v aught_o to_o god_n word_n but_o in_o that_o we_o ascribe_v that_o to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n which_o they_o ascribe_v to_o the_o freedom_n of_o their_o will_n i_o say_v the_o difference_n between_o we_o be_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o so_o indeed_o as_o here_o i_o profess_v and_o be_o ready_a to_o make_v good_a but_o whereas_o he_o say_v we_o make_v the_o word_n of_o god_n only_o to_o represent_v that_o without_o which_o the_o holy_a spirit_n have_v already_o wrought_v within_o as_o well_o in_o the_o will_n as_o in_o the_o understanding_n without_o any_o cooperation_n of_o the_o

afterward_o represent_v at_o full_a in_o these_o word_n without_o any_o cooperation_n of_o the_o word_n and_o beside_o it_o mar_v altogether_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n follow_v therefore_o i_o leave_v it_o quite_o out_o and_o read_v the_o passage_n thus_o to_o represent_v that_o which_o the_o holy_a spirit_n have_v already_o wrought_v within_o as_o well_o in_o the_o will_v as_o in_o the_o understanding_n without_o the_o cooperation_n of_o the_o word_n now_o here_o be_v a_o pretty_a mystery_n worth_a the_o open_n for_o he_o impute_v unto_o we_o as_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v that_o the_o word_n persuade_v and_o exhort_v to_o that_o which_o the_o spirit_n have_v already_o wrought_v both_o in_o the_o will_n and_o in_o the_o understanding_n now_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v what_o that_o be_v which_o the_o spirit_n have_v already_o wrought_v and_o when_o it_o be_v wrought_v according_a to_o our_o opinion_n as_o he_o say_v for_o i_o willing_o profess_v it_o be_v a_o mystery_n unto_o i_o namely_o that_o we_o shall_v maintain_v that_o god_n send_v his_o minister_n unto_o we_o to_o persuade_v we_o to_o that_o which_o god_n have_v wrought_v in_o we_o and_o that_o perhaps_o long_o before_o we_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o i_o willing_o confess_v in_o this_o case_n we_o may_v well_o seem_v to_o make_v the_o ministry_n of_o god_n word_n to_o be_v very_o unprofitable_a and_o vain_a now_o as_o i_o say_v so_o i_o say_v still_o this_o be_v very_o mysterious_a unto_o i_o but_o i_o must_v fish_n it_o out_o as_o well_o as_o i_o can_v by_o interrogation_n and_o what_o be_v it_o trow_v we_o that_o this_o author_n mean_v by_o this_o be_v it_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n consist_v in_o the_o renovation_n of_o all_o the_o rational_a faculty_n of_o man_n both_o the_o understanding_n and_o the_o will_v undoubted_o this_o be_v his_o meaning_n though_o the_o author_n carry_v himself_o obscure_o without_o particulate_v what_o he_o mean_v and_o wherein_o it_o consist_v then_o again_o when_o be_v this_o wrought_v if_o before_o we_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o word_n preach_v as_o he_o plain_o signify_v be_v it_o not_o clear_a that_o it_o must_v be_v before_o we_o come_v to_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n be_v as_o we_o be_v bring_v up_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o according_o make_v partaker_n of_o god_n word_n as_o soon_o as_o we_o come_v to_o the_o

of_o baptism_n i_o be_o out_o of_o doubt_n that_o this_o be_v his_o meaning_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o these_o arminian_n be_v of_o a_o contrary_a opinion_n utter_o deny_v that_o the_o grace_n

sacramento_n tenus_fw-la i_o willing_o confess_v that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n unto_o we_o christian_n as_o circumcision_n be_v unto_o the_o jew_n rom._n 4._o which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v that_o it_o assure_v we_o of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n as_o many_o as_o believe_v and_o that_o as_o a_o sacrament_n
