A61301	The love of God to all mankind in the glorious work of their redemption by Jesus Christ, asserted and vindicated. With a plain and sober discussion of those controversies which are the constant concomitants of it, viz. election and reprobation, God's foreknowledg, his nature, attributes, and decrees; the sufficiency of means vouchsafed to all men to believe; the use of the law to believers under the gospel. Also concerning original sin, freewill, and falling from grace. All fitted to the meanest capacity, in a way of dialogue, by Zachary Stanton.

sin_n philad_n i_o believe_v the_o same_o that_o believer_n consider_v as_o to_o that_o state_n they_o be_v in_o can_v sin_v as_o wicked_a man_n sin_n to_o wit_n in_o make_v a_o customary_a trade_n
