A86420	Fourteen queries and ten absurdities about the extent of Christ's death, the power of the creatures, the justice of God in condemning some, and saving others, presented by a free-willer to the Church of Christ at Newcastle, and answered by Paul Hobson a member of the said Church. In which answer is discovered, the extent of Christs death, the nature and truth of election, the condition of the creature both before and after conversion, &c. Published in tenderness of love for the good of all, especially for the Churches of Christ.	Hobson, Paul.	1655 (1655)	Wing H2273; Thomason E1492_4; ESTC R208520	40,720	127

groundless_a as_o to_o what_o i_o judge_v you_o intend_v but_o i_o have_v at_o large_a show_v you_o the_o sad_a danger_n of_o draw_v up_o form_n from_o variety_n of_o face_n in_o god_n outward_a declaration_n especial_o when_o fancy_n be_v the_o former_a which_o of_o necessity_n must_v be_v unless_o you_o distinguish_v cause_n and_o distinguish_v between_o god_n essential_a and_o

you_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o consider_v of_o which_o be_v in_o full_a to_o all_o your_o query_n and_o now_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o the_o fallacy_n of_o your_o absurdity_n now_o as_o for_o your_o absurdity_n though_o they_o must_v needs_o full_a with_o the_o answer_n of_o your_o query_n and_o need_v no_o other_o return_n yet_o that_o you_o may_v see_v the_o fallacy_n of_o they_o more_o full_o i_o shall_v brief_o speak_v a_o word_n or_o two_o to_o they_o most_o of_o they_o depend_v upon_o the_o conclusion_n of_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o and_o do_v arise_v from_o absolute_a denial_n of_o that_o now_o you_o may_v clear_o see_v by_o what_o i_o write_v that_o as_o to_o that_o which_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o your_o absurdity_n that_o i_o and_o other_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o with_o you_o hold_v that_o christ_n taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n according_a to_o that_o scripture_n in_o peter_n which_o you_o mention_v in_o your_o six_o absurdity_n and_o i_o in_o your_o first_o absurdity_n and_o therefore_o your_o first_o absurdity_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o devil_n destroy_v not_o those_o man_n for_o who_o christ_n die_v which_o say_v you_o be_v contrary_a to_o that_o scripture_n before_o mention_v i_o need_v say_v no_o more_o in_o answer_n to_o that_o absurdity_n only_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o the_o devil_n to_o destroy_v any_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v not_o because_o he_o die_v for_o all_o absurdity_n 2._o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n than_o despair_n be_v no_o sin_n in_o they_o that_o perish_v answer_n despair_n or_o infidelity_n be_v a_o sin_n in_o itself_o further_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v unknown_a that_o christ_n do_v not_o die_v for_o they_o till_o the_o conclusion_n come_v further_o that_o which_o be_v appliable_a to_o every_o creature_n and_o to_o be_v believe_v by_o every_o creature_n be_v not_o in_o a_o gospel_n sense_n believe_v by_o they_o that_o perish_v for_o they_o that_o do_v not_o in_o that_o sense_n believe_v one_o thing_n can_v in_o that_o sense_n believe_v any_o thing_n but_o further_a mind_n the_o want_n of_o ability_n do_v not_o take_v off_o god_n authority_n nor_o change_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n in_o itself_o therefore_o your_o absurdity_n be_v absurd_a absurdity_n 3._o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n than_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n for_o some_o man_n to_o believe_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o the_o answer_n
