word_n of_o the_o gospel_n pertain_v too_o every_o several_a person_n wherefore_o as_o touch_v those_o that_o we_o speak_v of_o there_o be_v find_v in_o they_o no_o stubbornness_n against_o the_o gospel_n but_o only_o original_a corruption_n which_o notwithstanding_o be_v even_o of_o itself_o alone_o sufficient_a believe_v to_o damn_v the_o reprobate_n beside_o this_o although_o the_o

uncertain_a how_o the_o perform_n or_o not_o perform_v of_o the_o condition_n will_v fall_v out_o then_o must_v it_o be_v conclude_v that_o god_n ordinance_n hang_v in_o suspense_n and_o that_o the_o

namely_o that_o faith_n have_v not_o his_o beginning_n of_o god_n but_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o god_n foresight_n give_v he_o cause_v too_o determine_v upon_o his_o choice_n neither_o be_v it_o too_o the_o purpose_n to_o object_n that_o faith_n be_v not_o foresee_v forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n that_o come_v in_o by_o the_o way_n but_o that_o corruption_n and_o unbelief_n be_v foresee_v which_o be_v natural_a in_o man_n after_o his_o fall_n reason_v for_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o contrary_n require_v in_o any_o case_n that_o look_v in_o what_o degree_n faith_n be_v place_v in_o the_o ordinance_n of_o election_n even_o in_o the_o same_o degree_n must_v faithlesness_n or_o unbeeleefe_n be_v place_v in_o the_o ordinance_n of_o
