that_o god_n by_o a_o wonderful_a and_o ineffable_a power_n which_o must_v needs_o be_v more_o than_o any_o persuasion_n do_v work_v in_o man_n mind_n not_o only_o true_a revelation_n which_o be_v wrought_v upon_o the_o reason_n but_o good_a affection_n and_o desire_n which_o be_v wrought_v immediate_o upon_o the_o will_n the_o very_a same_o do_v he_o again_o teach_v in_o his_o 107._o epist_n where_o purposely_o he_o refute_v vitalis_n for_o say_v that_o to_o consent_v to_o god_n calling_n or_o his_o gospel_n be_v not_o any_o special_a gift_n of_o god_n but_o a_o act_n flow_v from_o the_o freedom_n of_o our_o will_n when_o our_o understanding_n be_v enlighten_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n as_o also_o in_o his_o book_n the_o spir_n &_o light_v 34._o chap._n where_o have_v declare_v how_o god_n use_v these_o persuasion_n unto_o we_o whether_o external_a in_o his_o word_n preach_v or_o internal_a in_o the_o ear_n of_o our_o heart_n which_o in_o the_o scripture_n 3.20_o be_v fit_o term_v the_o vocation_n and_o calling_n or_o the_o knock_n of_o god_n at_o our_o heart_n he_o true_o say_v that_o to_o consent_v or_o dissent_n be_v a_o act_n indeed_o of_o our_o will_n but_o this_o that_o we_o do_v consent_n be_v the_o gift_n and_o work_n of_o god_n in_o our_o heart_n which_o work_n he_o elsewhere_o more_o especial_o declare_v to_o consist_v not_o only_o in_o set_v those_o

this_o purpose_n how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o when_o god_n use_v the_o same_o or_o the_o like_a persuasion_n and_o suggestion_n to_o two_o man_n uni_fw-la ita_fw-la suadeatur_fw-la ut_fw-la persuadeatur_fw-la the_o one_o be_v effectual_o persuade_v &_o not_o the_o other_o do_v man_n conversion_n depend_v on_o man_n own_o will_n he_o may_v most_o easy_o have_v answer_v this_o question_n because_o the_o one_o by_o the_o freedom_n of_o his_o will_n assent_v unto_o god_n motion_n and_o the_o other_o by_o the_o like_a freedom_n of_o his_o will_n dissent_v there_o from_o or_o else_o because_o to_o the_o one_o the_o persuasion_n and_o suggestion_n be_v congruous_a and_o fit_a and_o not_o unto_o the_o other_o but_o s._n austen_n know_v right_a well_o that_o it_o may_v just_o &_o no_o doubt_n will_v again_o be_v reply_v what_o shall_v work_v the_o congruity_n of_o the_o one_o will_n unto_o god_n persuasion_n and_o not_o of_o the_o other_o which_o he_o see_v can_v be_v refer_v to_o no_o other_o cause_n but_o only_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n give_v to_o the_o one_o and_o not_o give_v to_o the_o other_o therefore_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o can_v give_v no_o other_o answer_n to_o that_o question_n but_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n 33._o o_o altitudo_fw-la o_o the_o depth_n of_o god_n judgement_n who_o of_o his_o mercy_n give_v his_o grace_n and_o thereby_o make_v the_o one_o willing_a to_o turn_v to_o god_n and_o so_o he_o be_v effectual_o persuade_v and_o in_o his_o justice_n withhold_v that_o grace_n from_o the_o other_o and_o so_o he_o remain_v still_o unwilling_a &_o unperswade_v in_o which_o answer_n as_o be_v most_o sufficient_a s._n austen_n so_o full_o rest_v himself_o that_o he_o add_v this_o conclusion_n if_o any_o desire_v a_o better_a answer_n quaerat_fw-la doctiores_fw-la let_v he_o seek_v to_o those_o that_o be_v more_o learned_a but_o take_v heed_n he_o find_v not_o those_o that_o be_v more_o presumptuous_a thus_o we_o see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o further_o work_v of_o god_n grace_n on_o our_o will_n beside_o that_o illumination_n &_o persuasion_n which_o be_v wrought_v on_o our_o understanding_n for_o though_o it_o be_v most_o true_a which_o both_o philosopher_n and_o the_o schoolman_n teach_v that_o the_o will_n do_v ever_o follow_v the_o last_o judgement_n and_o conclusion_n of_o our_o practic_a reason_n yet_o because_o which_o be_v most_o special_o to_o be_v observe_v in_o this_o point_n even_o this_o last_o judgement_n of_o our_o reason_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o power_n &_o arbitrement_n of_o our_o will_n that_o so_o have_v have_v a_o most_o pregnant_a and_o fit_a reason_n and_o conclusion_n propose_v unto_o it_o yet_o of_o it_o own_o freedom_n and_o liberty_n by_o a_o certain_a connivance_n
