of_o grace_n be_v whereof_o the_o same_o apostle_n say_v the_o remnant_n be_v save_v by_o the_o election_n of_o grace_n which_o very_o be_v no_o grace_n if_o any_o merit_n at_o all_o go_v before_o

because_o they_o be_v not_o do_v except_o we_o be_v willing_a and_o by_o this_o which_o i_o say_v also_o after_o for_o neither_o can_v we_o will_v except_o we_o be_v call_v and_o when_o after_o call_v

i_o conclude_v thus_o it_o be_v therefore_o manifest_a that_o it_o lie_v neither_o in_o the_o runner_n nor_o in_o the_o wyller_n that_o we_o work_v well_o but_o in_o god_n that_o have_v mercy_n this_o be_v a_o most_o true_a say_n 9_o rom._n 9_o god_n there_o be_v one_o peculiar_a calling_n that_o belong_v only_o to_o god_n choose_v whereof_o be_o man_n on_o make_v ro._n 8._o &_o this_o be_v

belong_v not_o to_o all_o that_o be_v call_v but_o only_o to_o the_o elect_v therefore_o this_o that_o i_o say_v a_o little_a after_o for_o likewise_o as_o in_o they_o who_o god_n have_v choose_v not_o work_n but_o faith_n begyn_v the_o merit_n that_o they_o may_v work_v through_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n even_o so_o in_o they_o who_o he_o condemn_v infidelity_n and_o ungodlynes_n begyn_v the_o merit_n of_o pain_n that_o by_o the_o self_n pain_n they_o may_v also_o work_v wycked_o this_o i_o say_v most_o true_o but_o yet_o i_o say_v not_o that_o the_o merit_n of_o faith_n be_v also_o the_o self_n gift_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v i_o think_v it_o a_o thing_n worthy_a to_o be_v enquyre_v for_o and_o in_o a_o other_o place_n for_o upon_o who_o say_v i_o he_o have_v mercy_n he_o make_v he_o to_o work_v well_o and_o who_o he_o do_v harden_v he_o leave_v he_o to_o work_v evel_a but_o both_o that_o mercy_n be_v give_fw-ge to_o the_o merit_n of_o faith_n go_v before_o and_o also_o this_o hard_n to_o the_o precede_a wickedness_n the_o which_o very_o be_v true_a but_o yet_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v search_v further_a whether_o that_o also_o the_o merit_n of_o faith_n do_v prevent_v god_n mercy_n that_o be_v whether_o this_o mercy_n be_v therefore_o only_o wrought_v in_o man_n because_o he_o be_v faithful_a or_o whether_o it_o be_v also_o wrought_v that_o he_o may_v be_v make_v faithful_a 1._o 1._o timo._n 1._o for_o we_o read_v as_o thapostle_n say_v i_o have_v optein_v mercy_n that_o i_o may_v be_v make_v faithful_a he_o say_v not_o because_o he_o be_v faithful_a it_o be_v then_o give_v unto_o the_o faithful_a but_o it_o be_v also_o give_v that_o he_o may_v be_v make_v faithful_a wherefore_o in_o a_o other_o place_n of_o the_o same_o book_n i_o say_v most_o true_o for_o
