scripture_n that_o he_o die_v for_o many_o as_o well_o as_o for_o all_o as_o isa_n 53.12_o he_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o matth._n 20.28_o he_o give_v his_o life_n a_o ransom_n for_o many_o heb._n 9.28_o christ_n be_v once_o offer_v to_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o which_o expression_n import_v that_o he_o die_v not_o for_o all_o alike_o but_o for_o many_o in_o one_o sense_n and_o for_o all_o in_o another_o or_o else_o the_o expression_n of_o his_o die_v for_o many_o be_v needless_a in_o that_o it_o be_v so_o oft_o express_v that_o he_o die_v for_o all_o second_o because_o it_o be_v oft_o say_v that_o he_o die_v for_o his_o church_n as_o john_n 10.15_o i_o lay_v down_o my_o life_n for_o the_o sheep_n eph._n 5.25_o husband_n love_v your_o wife_n even_o as_o christ_n also_o love_v the_o church_n and_o give_v himself_o for_o it_o which_o import_v also_o that_o he_o die_v for_o all_o man_n in_o one_o sense_n and_o for_o his_o church_n in_o another_o three_o because_o the_o scripture_n have_v in_o terminis_fw-la in_o express_a word_n put_v a_o difference_n between_o his_o be_v a_o saviour_n to_o all_o man_n and_o his_o be_v a_o saviour_n to_o they_o that_o believe_v as_o in_o 1_o tim._n 4.10_o we_o trust_v in_o the_o live_a god_n who_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o all_o man_n special_o of_o those_o that_o believe_v from_o whence_o i_o argue_v thus_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n as_o he_o be_v a_o saviour_n of_o all_o man_n but_o he_o be_v a_o saviour_n of_o all_o man_n in_o a_o different_a sense_n and_o sort_n namely_o general_o of_o the_o universality_n of_o man_n and_o special_o of_o his_o church_n witness_v the_o distinction_n make_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o forecited_n text_n therefore_o he_o die_v for_o all_o man_n in_o a_o different_a sense_n and_o sort_n namely_o in_o one_o sense_n and_o sort_n for_o the_o universality_n of_o man_n and_o in_o another_o sense_n and_o sort_n for_o the_o particularity_n of_o his_o church_n to_o the_o three_o quaery_n i_o answer_v that_o he_o die_v for_o all_o wicked_a man_n and_o unbeliever_n in_o these_o two_o sense_n according_a to_o scripture_n 1._o as_o suffer_v a_o satisfactory_a punishment_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o the_o man_n in_o the_o world_n so_o as_o they_o be_v not_o leave_v destitute_a of_o the_o mean_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o salvation_n according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n 1_o tim._n 2.6_o there_o be_v one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o give_v himself_o a_o ransom_n for_o all_o a_o testimony_n in_o due_a time_n and_o again_o heb._n 2.9_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o he_o taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n 2._o he_o die_v for_o they_o upon_o condition_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o obedience_n according_a to_o these_o scripture_n john_n 3.16_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o heb._n 5.9_o he_o become_v the_o author_n of_o eternal_a salvation_n unto_o all_o they_o that_o obey_v he_o and_o so_o in_o like_a manner_n it_o be_v the_o affirmation_n of_o sundry_a other_o text_n of_o scripture_n but_o then_o he_o die_v not_o for_o they_o with_o a_o intention_n and_o purpose_n to_o give_v they_o grace_n to_o repent_v and_o believe_v and_o so_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o salvation_n which_o appear_v by_o scripture_n to_o be_v a_o clear_a truth_n these_o two_o way_n 1._o because_o scripture_n have_v reveal_v abundant_o god_n purpose_n to_o the_o contrary_a namely_o to_o save_v some_o man_n but_o not_o all_o the_o proof_n whereof_o be_v so_o numerous_a that_o i_o need_v not_o quote_v any_o 2._o because_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n with_o a_o intention_n and_o purpose_n to_o save_v all_o then_o either_o all_o shall_v be_v save_v which_o be_v contradict_v by_o a_o hundred_o place_n of_o scripture_n or_o else_o christ_n purpose_n may_v be_v alter_v but_o his_o purpose_n can_v be_v alter_v or_o disappoint_v and_o therefore_o he_o die_v not_o for_o all_o with_o a_o purpose_n to_o save_v all_o that_o his_o purpose_n can_v be_v alter_v i_o prove_v both_o because_o he_o can_v neither_o alter_v it_o himself_o nor_o can_v any_o other_o alter_v it_o that_o he_o can_v alter_v it_o himself_o be_v oft_o

and_o who_o shall_v let_v it_o and_o rom._n 9.19_o who_o have_v resist_v his_o will_n thus_o then_o from_o the_o premise_n already_o sufficient_o prove_v i_o conclude_v and_o determine_v the_o controversy_n thus_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o the_o man_n in_o the_o world_n in_o these_o two_o sense_n first_o as_o pay_v by_o his_o death_n a_o sufficient_a ransom_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o

all_o the_o desertor_n and_o rejecter_n of_o it_o to_o frame_v a_o more_o fit_a and_o proper_a distinction_n between_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n and_o his_o die_v for_o his_o church_n see_v a_o distinction_n between_o they_o be_v to_o be_v make_v as_o have_v be_v already_o declare_v by_o testimony_n of_o scripture_n the_o three_o controversy_n which_o be_v of_o all_o other_o the_o most_o

affirmative_a in_o page_n the_o 25._o of_o his_o forementioned_a discourse_n i_o answer_v to_o it_o in_o the_o negative_a deny_v that_o a_o natural_a man_n have_v power_n to_o repent_v and_o believe_v by_o the_o energy_n or_o strength_n of_o his_o own_o freewill_n but_o needs_o the_o help_n of_o the_o special_a prevent_a grace_n of_o god_n ere_o he_o can_v be_v convert_v or_o he_o can_v convert_v himself_o for_o the_o full_a open_n and_o enodation_n of_o this_o controversy_n and_o because_o therein_o i_o have_v more_o learned_a adversery_n to_o deal_v with_o then_o anabaptist_n i_o will_v first_o speak_v out_o what_o the_o will_n of_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n be_v able_a to_o do_v towards_o his_o conversion_n without_o the_o help_n of_o god_n special_a efficacious_a grace_n or_o prevent_v grace_n as_o the_o learned_a call_v it_o and_o then_o second_o how_o far_o it_o cooperate_v with_o god_n grace_n in_o his_o conversion_n about_o the_o first_o notice_n be_v to_o be_v take_v of_o a_o threefold_a liberty_n of_o will_n namely_o the_o liberty_n of_o nature_n the_o liberty_n of_o grace_n and_o the_o liberty_n of_o glory_n of_o which_o though_o these_o two_o last_o we_o lose_v by_o adam_n fall_n yet_o the_o first_o be_v not_o lose_v but_o remain_v still_o so_o as_o by_o virtue_n thereof_o the_o will_n have_v liberty_n to_o will_n or_o will_v without_o compulsion_n or_o

do_v by_o nature_n the_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o law_n in_o ecclesiastical_a action_n a_o unregenerate_a man_n have_v liberty_n also_o namely_o to_o perform_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n

spirit_n be_v oppose_v one_o to_o another_o as_o they_o be_v in_o this_o verse_n there_o by_o spirit_n be_v understand_v the_o regenerate_a part_n in_o man_n and_o by_o flesh_n the_o unregenerate_a part_n as_o beside_o the_o former_a text_n quote_v gal._n 5.16_o &_o 17._o verse_n be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o rom._n 8._o several_a time_n verse_n the_o 5._o they_o that_o be_v after_o the_o flesh_n do_v mind_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o flesh_n but_o they_o that_o be_v after_o the_o spirit_n the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n to_o be_v carnal_o mind_v be_v death_n but_o to_o be_v spiritual_o mind_v be_v life_n and_o peace_n and_o in_o the_o 9_o verse_n you_o be_v not_o in_o the_o flesh_n but_o in_o the_o spirit_n and_o again_o in_o the_o 13._o verse_n if_o you_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n you_o shall_v die_v but_o if_o you_o through_o the_o spirit_n do_v mortify_v the_o deed_n of_o the_o body_n you_o shall_v live_v in_o all_o which_o place_n as_o also_o in_o most_o other_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n where_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o flesh_n be_v set_v in_o opposition_n one_o to_o another_o there_o by_o flesh_n be_v mean_v the_o unregenerate_a part_n in_o man_n unless_o some_o circumstance_n in_o the_o context_n do_v necessary_o require_v that_o such_o place_n shall_v be_v otherwise_o understand_v hence_o therefore_o it_o follow_v undeniable_o that_o child_n be_v conceive_v and_o bear_v in_o sin_n namely_o because_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o regeneration_n to_o their_o salvation_n argument_n 2._o they_o that_o be_v subject_a to_o disease_n and_o death_n in_o their_o conception_n and_o birth_n be_v in_o their_o conception_n and_o birth_n sinful_a for_o these_o namely_o disease_n and_o death_n be_v affirm_v

they_o be_v in_o their_o conception_n and_o birth_n sinful_a to_o evade_v the_o force_n of_o this_o argument_n one_o of_o note_n among_o the_o anabaptisie_n name_o one_o mr._n brown_a in_o a_o

death_n to_o the_o death_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n both_o but_o to_o bodily_a death_n only_o yet_o lest_o he_o shall_v seem_v to_o contradict_v scripture_n which_o everywhere_o affirm_v all_o sin_n to_o provoke_v god_n anger_n and_o to_o deserve_v death_n and_o to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n unto_o death_n he_o confess_v that_o any_o sin_n deserve_v death_n but_o not_o every_o kind_n of_o death_n his_o word_n be_v these_o i_o grant_v say_v he_o that_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n but_o the_o wage_n of_o any_o sin_n be_v not_o every_o kind_n of_o death_n and_o so_o deny_v that_o adam_n incur_v any_o other_o death_n by_o his_o sin_n then_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n touch_v this_o answer_n and_o this_o exposition_n of_o the_o foresay_a text_n of_o scripture_n i_o desire_v the_o reader_n to_o take_v notice_n of_o these_o two_o fail_n and_o fault_n therein_o first_o it_o extenuate_v the_o heinousness_n of_o sin_n and_o mince_v and_o diminish_v that_o just_a demerit_n and_o penalty_n of_o it_o which_o throughout_o the_o whole_a scripture_n be_v denounce_v against_o it_o which_o be_v death_n both_o of_o body_n and_o soul_n second_o it_o be_v a_o concession_n and_o confession_n in_o effect_n that_o child_n be_v by_o nature_n sinful_a bear_v with_o fin_n upon_o they_o and_o in_o they_o for_o if_o the_o wage_n of_o any_o be_v death_n which_o be_v truth_n and_o he_o ingenious_o affirm_v it_o then_o where_o there_o be_v any_o death_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v some_o sin_n or_o else_o the_o wage_n and_o penalty_n of_o sin_n shall_v be_v inflict_v where_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n whereas_o therefore_o some_o child_n suffer_v in_o their_o infancy_n some_o kind_n of_o death_n namely_o bodily_a death_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v guilty_a of_o some_o kind_n of_o sin_n otherwise_o they_o shall_v be_v punish_v with_o bodily_a death_n undeserved_o which_o to_o affirm_v be_v blasphemy_n but_o they_o can_v have_v no_o actual_a sin_n as_o be_v confess_v of_o all_o man_n and_o therefore_o the_o sin_n which_o expose_v they_o to_o death_n must_v needs_o be_v some_o latent_fw-la sin_n wherewith_o their_o nature_n be_v stain_v from_o the_o womb_n as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v which_o be_v that_o which_o we_o call_v original_a and_o so_o you_o may_v see_v that_o his_o answer_n to_o the_o argument_n be_v in_o effect_n a_o concession_n of_o the_o

further_o he_o confess_v in_o the_o same_o place_n of_o his_o book_n that_o actual_a sin_n in_o man_n deserve_v eternal_a death_n though_o not_o origin_n all_o sin_n now_o i_o will_v know_v of_o he_o whether_o adam_n first_o sin_n be_v not_o actual_a sin_n this_o i_o be_o sure_a he_o can_v deny_v nay_o a_o very_a heinous_a actual_a sin_n it_o be_v as_o may_v be_v lay_v open_a by_o many_o

of_o adam_n i_o dare_v answer_n for_o he_o that_o he_o can_v tell_v for_o if_o our_o actual_a sin_n deserve_v eternal_a death_n much_o rather_o that_o of_o adam_n as_o who_o have_v great_a light_n

more_o under_o foot_n that_o it_o may_v never_o lift_v up_o itself_o again_o i_o demand_v of_o these_o anabaptist_n whether_o adam_n do_v not_o by_o his_o sin_n divest_v and_o disrobe_v himself_o of_o that_o glorious_a image_n of_o god_n after_o which_o he_o be_v make_v which_o consist_v especial_o in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n as_o the_o apostle_n have_v declare_v eph._n 4.22.23_o

therefore_o they_o be_v sinner_n now_o that_o christ_n come_v to_o save_v infant_n as_o well_o as_o man_n of_o year_n appear_v by_o scripture_n these_o two_o way_n 1._o because_o he_o die_v for_o

into_o the_o world_n to_o save_v they_o as_o well_o as_o man_n of_o year_n i_o will_v add_v one_o argument_n more_o for_o proof_n of_o this_o point_n to_o which_o the_o wit_n of_o man_n though_o

nature_n sinner_n but_o all_o man_n be_v by_o nature_n child_n of_o wrath_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n ephes_n 2.3_o therefore_o all_o man_n be_v by_o nature_n sinner_n and_o so_o consequent_o

holy_a scripture_n both_o in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n which_o evermore_o teach_v sin_n to_o be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o god_n anger_n and_o wrath_n and_o this_o in_o reason_n must_v needs_o be_v so_o because_o all_o thing_n else_o be_v his_o own_o work_n which_o be_v all_o good_a yea_o very_o good_a as_o we_o read_v in_o gen._n 1.31_o and_o sin_n only_o be_v the_o devil_n work_n the_o enemy_n of_o god_n and_o all_o goodness_n and_o therefore_o sin_n only_o be_v say_v to_o provoke_v god_n anger_n and_o wrath_n the_o testimony_n of_o scripture_n be_v so_o numerous_a for_o this_o that_o i_o will_v name_v but_o this_o one_o of_o a_o thomsand_n rom._n 1.18_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n against_o all_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n of_o

one_o thing_n more_o about_o this_o argument_n and_o so_o i_o will_v conclude_v it_o the_o forename_a text_n in_o eph._n 2.3_o with_o what_o be_v deducible_a from_o it_o where_o it_o be_v affirm_v that_o we_o be_v all_o by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n puzle_v the_o anabaptist_n not_o a_o little_a and_o put_v they_o to_o their_o shift_n to_o frame_v such_o a_o exposition_n thereof_o
