A77642 Scripture-redemption freed from men's restrictions: being an answer to a book lately published by Mr. William Troughton (who stiles himself a minister of the gospel at Onlep in Leicester-shire) intituled, scripture-redemption restrained and limited: as also the substance of several conferences and disputes had in England, Wales, and Scotland, with Mr. Heath, Mr. Bartley, Mr. Powel, Mr. Sam. Rutherford, and Mr. James Wood, two rectors of the university of S. Andrews, and many others, about the death of our most dear redeemer, and the controversies which are the constant concomitants of it. Together with a brief reply to Mr. Troughton's rayling accusations in his introduction. By J. Brown, sometimes of Orial Coll. in Oxford, afterwards a priest of the Church of England, and vicar of Tenbury in Worcester-shire; but now through mercy a preacher of the faith which once he destroyed.

confess_v that_o the_o saint_n i._n e._n they_o who_o receive_v the_o word_n whereunto_o they_o be_v appoint_v be_v partaker_n of_o this_o special_a call_n or_o vocation_n i_o shall_v only_o add_v

of_o the_o creature_n from_o danger_n death_n and_o destruction_n and_o be_v general_a or_o special_a as_o you_o may_v see_v 1_o tim._n 4._o 10._o for_o this_o cause_n we_o both_o labour_n and_o

have_v be_v speak_v before_o this_o be_v not_o mean_v of_o christ_n but_o of_o the_o father_n i_o answer_v hereto_o first_o consider_v what_o christ_n say_v john_n 5._o 19_o whatsoever_o thing_n the_o

shall_v say_v that_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a signify_v not_o a_o saviour_n but_o a_o preserver_n and_o so_o conclude_v that_o the_o father_n be_v the_o preserver_n of_o all_o man_n i_o

a_o crucify_a christ_n the_o lamb_n slay_v from_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o if_o the_o gloss_n which_o man_n put_v upon_o this_o precious_a truth_n be_v truth_n yet_o it_o make_v nothing_o against_o that_o holy_a truth_n of_o god_n which_o i_o desire_v to_o vindicate_v but_o it_o be_v as_o notorious_a a_o untruth_n and_o falsehood_n as_o ever_o come_v from_o the_o mouth_n or_o pen_n of_o any_o man_n for_o wheresoever_o you_o find_v the_o word_n saviour_n use_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n relate_v to_o jesus_n christ_n you_o shall_v find_v the_o same_o word_n

the_o same_o neither_o be_v the_o greek_n word_n soter_n ever_o render_v preserver_n in_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o god_n but_o always_o saviour_n last_o it_o be_v the_o common_a practice_n of_o the_o

that_o the_o translation_n though_o give_v by_o man_n of_o their_o own_o judgement_n be_v not_o right_a as_o for_o example_n where_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n say_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o and_o that_o god_n will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o be_v save_v and_o that_o the_o free_a gift_n come_v unto_o all_o man_n to_o the_o justification_n of_o life_n they_o say_v it_o mean_v otherwise_o and_o that_o the_o text_n heb._n 2._o 9_o he_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n and_o this_o word_n who_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o all_o man_n etc._n etc._n be_v

that_o christ_n taste_v death_n only_o for_o every_o son_n and_o that_o the_o father_n be_v the_o preserver_n of_o some_o man_n three_o and_o last_o whether_o we_o shall_v be_v judge_v by_o that_o

but_o some_o it_o may_v be_v will_v say_v if_o christ_n have_v save_v all_o man_n from_o the_o grave_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o any_o die_v i_o answer_v first_o christ_n be_v never_o
