first_o a._n the_o apostle_n do_v not_o there_o speak_v of_o a_o will_n and_o endeavour_v to_o obey_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n for_o this_o will_v be_v repugnant_a to_o all_o the_o scripture_n which_o inculcate_v nothing_o more_o frequent_o than_o a_o endeavour_n to_o live_v according_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n but_o of_o such_o a_o will_n and_o endeavour_v whereby_o we_o prevent_v god_n and_o move_v he_o to_o propose_v his_o benefit_n to_o we_o which_o that_o it_o be_v so_o appear_v from_o the_o very_a position_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o be_v such_o not_o all_o who_o be_v bear_v of_o abraham_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n be_v true_o his_o son_n and_o such_o as_o to_o who_o the_o promise_n of_o eternal_a happiness_n make_v to_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n do_v belong_v but_o only_o those_o who_o god_n vouchsafe_v that_o grace_n without_o any_o regard_n have_v to_o their_o birth_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n of_o which_o sort_n be_v they_o that_o

of_o abraham_n and_o israel_n and_o this_o be_v the_o genuine_a meaning_n of_o the_o place_n wherefore_o as_o we_o willing_o consent_v that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n who_o by_o his_o willing_a and_o

in_o a_o thing_n contrary_n to_o this_o namely_o that_o other_o judge_v themselves_o unworthy_a of_o eternal_a life_n act_v 13._o 46._o and_o as_o christ_n say_v afterward_o act._n 18._o 10._o that_o

that_o the_o scripture_n may_v be_v fulfil_v from_o whence_o the_o adversary_n infer_v that_o he_o be_v force_v thereunto_o q._n what_o say_v you_o to_o these_o place_n a._n i_o confess_v that_o god_n do_v sometime_o so_o reject_v certain_a man_n from_o his_o grace_n that_o they_o can_v neither_o repent_v nor_o be_v amend_v but_o those_o work_n and_o action_n of_o god_n do_v no_o way_n if_o we_o speak_v simple_o take_v away_o freewill_n since_o those_o example_n wherein_o they_o appear_v be_v singular_a which_o god_n will_v therefore_o have_v extant_a because_o the_o man_n when_o they_o may_v do_v nevertheless_o refuse_v to_o obey_v god_n and_o therefore_o god_n have_v be_v for_o a_o long_a time_n worthy_a that_o god_n shall_v execute_v his_o judgement_n upon_o they_o which_o he_o when_o he_o think_v do_v according_o execute_v upon_o they_o of_o which_o sort_n be_v pharaoh_n who_o have_v long_o before_o afflict_v the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o judas_n who_o have_v be_v long_o before_o a_o thief_n and_o covetous_a person_n and_o therefore_o god_n make_v use_v of_o they_o to_o perpetrate_v such_o horrid_a deed_n chap._n xi_o of_o justification_n q._n since_o i_o understand_v

which_o paul_n open_o testify_v whilst_o he_o say_v that_o the_o happiness_n of_o a_o man_n consist_v herein_o that_o god_n impute_v righteousness_n to_o he_o rom._n 4._o 6._o and_o then_o add_v out_o

of_o christ_n this_o can_v be_v affirm_v thereof_o for_o although_o all_o man_n that_o ever_o believe_v in_o god_n shall_v by_o faith_n be_v justify_v as_o may_v be_v open_o gather_v from_o heb._n 11._o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o way_n of_o justification_n be_v not_o comprehend_v in_o the_o covenant_n give_v by_o moses_n but_o mere_o depend_v of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n whereas_o now_o the_o manner_n of_o justification_n by_o faith_n in_o christ_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o very_a new_a covenant_n whence_o their_o faith_n do_v not_o include_v faith_n in_o christ_n and_o therefore_o
