A88080 The glorious truth of redemption by Jesus Christ, rescued out of the hand or unrighteousnes. Or the doctrine of redemption rightly stated: wherein, 1. All Arminian and Pelagian glosses and absurdities are refuted. 2. All carnal allegations and reasonings silenc'd. 3. All concern'd scriptures seemingly discording, reconcil'd. 4. The doctrine of redemption clearly held forth, according to the harmony of scripture, and analogie of faith. By W.L. Levitt, William. 1652 (1652) Wing L1828; Thomason E681_7; ESTC R206784 25,340 46

be_v save_v or_o destroy_v but_o as_o all_o man_n do_v not_o die_v eternal_o in_o adam_n so_o all_o man_n live_v not_o eternal_o by_o christ_n god_n have_v choose_v only_o a_o certain_a number_n to_o
