to_o we_o if_o you_o mind_n these_o particular_n first_o it_o be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o condemn_v all_o it_o be_v only_a grace_n and_o love_n that_o he_o save_v any_o according_a to_o these_o scripture_n ephes_n 2.5_o 8._o 2_o tim._n 1.9_o tit._n 3.5_o 2._o god_n do_v condemn_v no_o man_n if_o you_o look_v upon_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n not_o for_o the_o creature_n not_o express_v of_o a_o power_n of_o believe_v in_o entertain_v christ_n but_o for_o the_o exercise_v of_o a_o power_n in_o reject_v christ_n shall_v god_n condemn_v creature_n for_o their_o not_o exercise_v a_o power_n in_o receive_v christ_n than_o he_o do_v condemn_v they_o for_o what_o they_o have_v not_o 2_o thess_n 3.2_o but_o he_o condemn_v they_o for_o their_o reject_v christ_n which_o power_n they_o have_v it_o be_v true_a the_o scripture_n say_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v damn_v for_o not_o believe_v be_v a_o declaration_n of_o a_o abid●●●_n in_o a_o state_n without_o christ_n which_o be_v a_o state_n of_o condemnation_n it_o be_v also_o say_v that_o they_o be_v condemn_v because_o they_o believe_v not_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o that_o cause_n be_v the_o declarative_a cause_n but_o the_o meritorious_a cause_n which_o be_v that_o god_n do_v and_o will_v go_v upon_o to_o clear_v up_o his_o justice_n by_o be_v not_o the_o creature_n refuse_v to_o exercise_v a_o power_n in_o receive_v christ_n for_o that_o they_o have_v not_o 2_o thess_n 3.2_o but_o it_o be_v the_o exercise_v of_o a_o power_n of_o darkness_n in_o reject_v christ_n and_o that_o

12.25_o psalm_n 118.22_o and_o so_o much_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o objection_n now_o there_o be_v other_o objection_n which_o i_o judge_v may_v occasion_n mistake_v but_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o they_o in_o the_o next_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o three_o particular_a that_o i_o promise_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o my_o writing_n to_o wit_n to_o discover_v your_o mistake_n which_o the_o cause_n of_o your_o stumble_n in_o which_o discovery_n you_o will_v see_v some_o of_o the_o objection_n that_o further_o may_v be_v make_v both_o express_v and_o answer_v now_o as_o for_o the_o mistake_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o your_o stumble_n they_o be_v many_o i_o shall_v mention_v so_o many_o as_o i_o have_v be_v acquaint_v with_o which_o be_v as_o follow_v first_o the_o measure_n or_o judge_v of_o man_n ability_n by_o the_o extent_n of_o god_n authority_n which_o be_v manifest_a in_o his_o word_n for_o in_o all_o the_o scripture_n god_n manifest_v his_o authority_n over_o we_o and_o your_o mistake_n be_v from_o his_o authority_n to_o conclude_v the_o creature_n ability_n as_o in_o such_o scripture_n where_o god_n say_v do_v this_o and_o you_o shall_v live_v and_o turn_v yourselves_o or_o be_v this_o or_o be_v that_o which_o scripture_n be_v principal_o to_o discover_v god_n authority_n but_o not_o the_o creature_n ability_n when_o man_n fall_v he_o lose_v his_o ability_n but_o this_o change_n wrought_v no_o alteration_n in_o god_n if_o no_o change_n in_o god_n then_o why_o shall_v any_o change_v be_v in_o his_o language_n ●f_a god_n have_v change_v that_o way_n of_o his_o language_n the_o creature_n will_v have_v be_v apt_a to_o conceive_v that_o in_o man_n fall_n there_o have_v be_v a_o change_n of_o god_n power_n or_o authority_n as_o well_o as_o of_o the_o creature_n ability_n which_o be_v not_o so_o a_o second_o mistake_n be_v your_o not_o distinguish_v of_o cause_n put_v no_o difference_n between_o the_o essential_a meritorious_a instrumental_a and_o final_a cause_n and_o so_o it_o occasion_n you_o to_o conclude_v god_n or_o some_o of_o his_o eminent_a act_n do_v in_o himself_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o something_o that_o be_v but_o instrumental_a cause_n and_o so_o you_o do_v bring_v the_o efficient_a cause_n into_o subjection_n unto_o the_o instrumental_a cause_n and_o sometime_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o efficient_a cause_n be_v declare_v in_o scripture_n as_o a_o declarative_a cause_n as_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v damn_v or_o as_o a_o instrumental_a cause_n he_o that_o believe_v shall_v be_v save_v now_o your_o not_o understand_v cause_n be_v a_o occasion_n of_o your_o stumble_n a_o three_o mistake_n be_v your_o not_o apply_v one_o scripture_n with_o another_o in_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o extent_n of_o some_o expression_n in_o scripture_n as_o the_o word_n all_o and_o the_o word_n world_n 1._o now_o the_o word_n all_o and_o the_o word_n world_n they_o be_v diverse_o take_v sometime_o

that_o be_v express_v in_o a_o particular_a scripture_n without_o understand_v that_o scripture_n by_o another_o as_o in_o ezek._n 33.11_o where_o the_o lord_n say_v as_o i_o live_v i_o delight_v

his_o jealousy_n shall_v smoke_v against_o that_o man_n and_o all_o the_o curse_n that_o be_v write_v in_o this_o book_n shall_v light_v upon_o he_o if_o so_o than_o this_o can_v be_v the_o sinner_n god_n intend_v in_o ezek._n 33.11_o a_o second_o sort_n of_o sinner_n be_v those_o that_o sin_n and_o be_v not_o sensible_a of_o their_o sin_v but_o rather_o think_v it_o go_v well_o with_o they_o when_o they_o sin_n as_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o world_n do_v this_o sort_n of_o sinner_n god_n speak_v of_o in_o jer._n 44.17_o 18._o and_o isai_n 27._o now_o if_o you_o look_v in_o jer._n 44.26_o god_n there_o swear_v he_o will_v show_v they_o no_o mercy_n and_o in_o isai_n 27.11_o there_o god_n do_v affirm_v he_o will_v show_v no_o mercy_n to_o they_o now_o both_o these_o sort_n of_o sinner_n can_v be_v those_o god_n intend_v when_o he_o say_v as_o i_o live_v i_o delight_v not_o in_o the_o death_n of_o a_o sinner_n a_o three_o sort_n of_o sinner_n be_v sinner_n in_o a_o gospel_n sense_n and_o they_o be_v those_o that_o christ_n 1●th_v i_o come_v not_o to_o save_v the_o righteous_a but_o sinner_n as_o in_o these_o scripture_n matth._n 9.13_o mark_v 2.17_o luke_n 5.32_o 1_o tim._n 1.15_o and_o those_o sinner_n appear_v to_o be_v such_o and_o be_v declare_v to_o be_v such_o when_o they_o have_v through_o the_o gracious_a appearance_n of_o god_n a_o discovery_n of_o themselves_o to_o themselves_o that_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o their_o sin_n groan_v and_o long_o after_o jesus_n christ_n these_o be_v those_o that_o christ_n invite_v matthew_n 11.28_o come_v unto_o
