unaccountable_a contingency_n nor_o can_v ever_o be_v bring_v about_o by_o any_o mere_a humane_a contrivance_n what_o remain_v but_o that_o we_o ascribe_v it_o as_o the_o scripture_n do_v to_o the_o

take_v any_o thing_n up_o into_o our_o hand_n argue_v a_o previous_a choice_n that_o our_o eye_n be_v upon_o it_o before_o so_o here_o god_n have_v from_o eternity_n make_v choice_n of_o some_o for_o salvation_n his_o eye_n be_v upon_o they_o from_o eternity_n and_o when_o his_o grace_n take_v actual_a hold_n of_o they_o we_o may_v then_o through_o our_o present_a effectual_a vocation_n see_v up_o

do_v in_o time_n we_o know_v what_o he_o intend_v from_o eternity_n let_v none_o despair_v of_o this_o grace_n who_o wait_v upon_o god_n for_o it_o all_o those_o who_o have_v already_o pass_v the_o

the_o creature_n there_o be_v no_o medium_n between_o god_n and_o the_o creature_n whatever_o be_v do_v be_v by_o one_o or_o the_o other_o some_o resolve_a conversion_n and_o regeneration_n into_o man_n own_o power_n derive_v from_o that_o general_a sufficient_a grace_n purchase_v by_o christ_n for_o all_o man_n but_o if_o man_n in_o his_o perfect_a state_n fall_v under_o that_o general_a sufficient_a grace_n which_o he_o be_v certain_o endow_v with_o at_o his_o first_o creation_n how_o can_v we_o now_o suppose_v any_o such_o general_a grace_n to_o be_v sufficient_a to_o recover_v fall_v man_n and_o to_o keep_v he_o for_o ever_o from_o a_o relapse_n therefore_o we_o must_v place_v fall_v man_n under_o some_o strong_a influence_n even_o that_o of_o effectual_a grace_n which_o do_v not_o only_o show_v unto_o man_n the_o way_n of_o salvation_n by_o christ_n but_o effectual_o draw_v his_o heart_n to_o a_o actual_a closure_n with_o christ_n join_v he_o to_o the_o lord_n in_o

the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v unsearchable_a and_o his_o judgement_n past_o our_o find_v out_o all_o must_v be_v resolve_v into_o the_o sovereign_a will_n of_o god_n why_o shall_v our_o eye_n be_v evil_a because_o he_o be_v good_a who_o do_v what_o he_o will_v with_o his_o own_o and_o give_v no_o account_n of_o his_o matter_n because_o god_n have_v purpose_v from_o eternity_n to_o show_v

be_v as_o much_o under_o the_o decree_n of_o god_n as_o salvation_n itself_o if_o the_o decree_n of_o god_n bring_v not_o forth_o such_o thing_n in_o you_o now_o as_o accompany_v salvation_n it_o will_v never_o bring_v forth_o salvation_n itself_o the_o doctrine_n of_o election_n be_v a_o comfortable_a doctrine_n if_o we_o apply_v it_o to_o the_o mean_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o end_n they_o who_o deny_v this_o doctrine_n and_o plead_v so_o much_o for_o man_n freewill_n they_o do_v and_o must_v hold_v a_o fall_n from_o grace_n though_o god_n love_v they_o now_o they_o be_v not_o sure_a to_o continue_v in_o his_o love_n nor_o never_o will_v be_v till_o they_o run_v up_o all_o their_o hope_n into_o elect_v love._n when_o once_o they_o see_v that_o god_n have_v love_v they_o from_o

the_o unchangeableness_n of_o god_n that_o he_o who_o have_v love_v they_o from_o everlasting_a will_v love_v they_o to_o everlasting_a for_o who_o he_o so_o love_v he_o always_o love_v to_o the_o

regeneration_n be_v the_o elect_n only_o the_o elect_n and_o all_o the_o elect_n then_o prove_v your_o election_n by_o your_o regeneration_n you_o can_v prove_v regeneration_n by_o your_o election_n
