A49338	Mercy triumphant, the kingdom of Christ enlarged beyond the narrow bounds which have been wont to be set unto it by Edward Lane, minister of the Gospel ; being an antidote against a book lately come out, of Doctor DuMoulin's, called Moral reflections upon the number of the elect, wherein the said author will prove by Scripture, that not one in a hundred thousand (nay probably not one in a million) from Adam down to our times shall be saved.	Lane, Edward, 1605-1685.	1680 (1680)	Wing L333; ESTC R17029	54,157	64

displeasure_n against_o the_o world_n for_o sin_n and_o to_o bring_v many_o soul_n out_o of_o the_o snare_n of_o the_o devil_n unto_o glory_n than_o sin_n can_v be_v able_a in_o its_o most_o deadly_a
