hitherto_o i_o beseech_v you_o tell_v i_o then_o 1._o how_o there_o can_v be_v many_o yea_o or_o any_o true_a believer_n who_o be_v never_o humble_v when_o yet_o all_o man_n must_v see_v their_o

man_n may_v be_v actual_o reconcile_v to_o god_n have_v wrath_n remove_v from_o he_o and_o be_v belove_v of_o god_n with_o the_o love_n of_o complacency_n antinomianism_n and_o yet_o at_o the_o same_o time_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o same_o evil_a work_n be_v a_o enemy_n unto_o god_n a_o child_n of_o wrath_n and_o have_v wrath_n abide_v on_o he_o 3._o how_o the_o same_o man_n may_v be_v actual_o justify_v and_o quicken_v and_o yet_o actual_o dead_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o same_o sin_n at_o the_o same_o time_n 4._o how_o the_o same_o man_n at_o the_o same_o time_n can_v be_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n one_o in_o he_o and_o unite_v to_o he_o as_o he_o must_v be_v who_o be_v actual_o justify_v and_o a_o member_n also_o of_o the_o devil_n as_o he_o can_v but_o be_v who_o still_o remain_v a_o ungodly_a impenitent_a and_o unbelieving_a person_n 5._o how_o faith_n in_o the_o work_n of_o justification_n serve_v for_o any_o far_a use_n then_o to_o assure_v we_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v see_v it_o do_v not_o concur_v to_o the_o essence_n and_o be_v of_o it_o or_o to_o the_o constitute_n of_o we_o in_o a_o state_n justifiable_a and_o how_o we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o work_n when_o work_n assure_v we_o of_o our_o be_v justify_v as_o well_o as_o faith_n 6_o how_o in_o the_o petition_n forgive_v we_o our_o debt_n we_o can_v pray_v for_o any_o thing_n more_o than_o assurance_n of_o pardon_n when_o actual_a pardon_n be_v pass_v long_o before_o and_o how_o sin_n can_v be_v actual_o pardon_v before_o they_o be_v commit_v and_o the_o guilt_n remove_v before_o it_o be_v contract_v 7_o how_o god_n who_o promise_v pardon_n to_o believer_n only_o and_o condemn_v thousand_o for_o their_o impenitency_n and_o unbelief_n can_v without_o blemish_n of_o his_o honour_n truth_n and_o justice_n give_v pardon_n to_o any_o in_o his_o impenitency_n and_o unbelief_n 8_o how_o a_o man_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v bind_v by_o covenant_n to_o keep_v or_o break_v the_o covenant_n when_o yet_o in_o the_o conant_n there_o be_v no_o condition_n on_o man_n part_n require_v to_o be_v perform_v 9_o why_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v from_o your_o tenant_n that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v actual_o justify_v and_o save_v without_o faith_n when_o yet_o you_o maintain_v actual_a justification_n before_o faith_n and_o faith_n to_o be_v require_v not_o to_o the_o essence_n of_o it_o or_o intere_v of_o person_n in_o it_o but_o only_o to_o the_o assure_v they_o of_o their_o interest_n therein_o 10._o why_o it_o follow_v not_o also_o from_o they_o that_o christian_n may_v live_v as_o they_o list_v see_v you_o hold_v that_o no_o condition_n be_v on_o their_o part_n require_v so_o that_o they_o can_v break_v the_o covenant_n whether_o doctor_n preston_n dare_v the_o believer_n to_o sin_n if_o he_o can_v i_o yet_o find_v not_o but_o this_o i_o find_v that_o he_o hold_v that_o the_o believer_n may_v both_o sin_n and_o by_o sin_v may_v break_v the_o covenant_n as_o you_o may_v find_v in_o his_o treatise_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n p._n 458_o 459_o 460._o etc._n etc._n these_o be_v some_o of_o the_o many_o for_o more_o may_v be_v name_v strait_n

solution_n hitherto_o give_v do_v yield_v no_o manner_n of_o real_a satisfaction_n not_o only_o not_o to_o myself_o but_o not_o to_o any_o other_o of_o your_o godly_a and_o intelligent_a auditor_n that_o i_o have_v yet_o meet_v with_o towards_o the_o close_a of_o your_o sermon_n you_o usher_v in_o your_o authority_n with_o this_o objection_n but_o many_o good_a divine_n call_v it_o a_o

ever_o yet_o meet_v with_o dr._n crisp_n mr._n saltmarsh_n and_o yourself_o exept_v as_o for_o those_o author_n you_o bring_v i_o shall_v by_o and_o by_o show_v your_o foul_a play_n in_o cite_v some_o of_o they_o and_o your_o mistake_n of_o other_o and_o discover_v most_o if_o not_o all_o of_o they_o to_o be_v on_o my_o side_n and_o to_o be_v only_o against_o meritorious_a condition_n the_o like_a

you_o be_v please_v to_o rub_v your_o poll_n i_o believe_v you_o may_v call_v to_o mind_n not_o only_o that_o some_o but_o most_o good_a divine_n call_v these_o condition_n and_o say_v as_o much_o of_o good_a work_n as_o you_o here_o allow_v to_o faith_n namely_o that_o they_o be_v via_fw-la ad_fw-la regnum_fw-la the_o way_n to_o the_o kingdom_n though_o not_o causa_fw-la regnandi_fw-la the_o cause_n of_o reign_v i_o be_o sure_a mr._n perkins_n dr._n preston_n bishop_n davenant_n and_o most_o other_o i_o have_v read_v do_v call_v they_o so_o but_o you_o be_v politic_a in_o these_o expression_n for_o thereby_o you_o will_v persuade_v your_o hearer_n that_o you_o have_v many_o on_o your_o side_n like_o some_o traveller_n who_o pass_v on_o in_o solitary_a way_n keep_v a_o whistle_n and_o a_o hooping_a as_o if_o they_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o company_n whereas_o alas_o they_o be_v either_o whole_o alone_a or_o at_o most_o have_v but_o one_o or_o two_o companion_n now_o sir_n for_o your_o reply_n to_o this_o objection_n we_o shall_v refer_v it_o to_o the_o close_a of_o all_o and_o at_o present_a shall_v look_v into_o the_o author_n you_o bring_v and_o see_v
