perseverance_n depend_v on_o special_a grace_n and_o that_o on_o personal_a election_n and_o i_o perceive_v this_o gentleman_n hang_v his_o head_n at_o that_o but_o as_o for_o the_o latter_a we_o may_v be_v in_o doubt_n what_o indeed_o his_o mind_n be_v one_o will_v think_v by_o his_o argument_n at_o the_o begin_n against_o assurance_n he_o shall_v be_v no_o protestant_n but_o he_o be_v for_o

assurance_n a_o good_a thing_n st_o paul_n have_v it_o and_o st._n john_n have_v it_o hereby_o we_o know_v we_o be_v pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n and_o by_o this_o we_o know_v that_o we_o know_v he_o if_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n then_o that_o be_v good_a it_o must_v be_v a_o effect_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o this_o be_v prove_v the_o spirit_n also_o bear_v witness_n with_o our_o spirit_n this_o witness_n be_v our_o assurance_n and_o consequent_o it_o may_v be_v pray_v for_o according_a to_o the_o promise_n in_o luke_n as_o well_o as_o any_o other_o of_o the_o profitable_a effect_n he_o have_v mention_v whether_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n needful_a be_v a_o question_n not_o needful_a so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v good_a it_o be_v a_o egg_n i_o hope_v to_o argue_v with_o he_o though_o it_o be_v not_o bread_n the_o only_a difficulty_n here_o be_v to_z state_z this_o assurance_n it_o be_v a_o controversal_a point_n and_o his_o one_o term_n absolute_a will_v do_v little_a to_o the_o

this_o be_v the_o most_o dangerous_a extreme_a on_o one_o hand_n and_o that_o no_o man_n at_o all_o without_o revelation_n according_a to_o the_o trent_n doctor_n can_v be_v assure_v that_o he_o be_v in_o god_n favour_n be_v the_o extreme_a on_o the_o other_o but_o for_o the_o state_v this_o assurance_n aright_o between_o the_o protestant_n and_o papist_n to_o be_v a_o certainty_n not_o of_o faith_n because_o the_o scripture_n give_v no_o testimony_n to_o any_o particular_a person_n but_o a_o certainty_n moral_a or_o of_o hope_n which_o must_v be_v such_o as_o exclude_v doubt_v that_o

require_v from_o i_o more_o deliberation_n and_o more_o paper_n this_o i_o will_v say_v only_o that_o there_o be_v a_o neutral_a truth_n in_o the_o most_o of_o

term_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v unperformable_a and_o that_o this_o faith_n may_v be_v in_o our_o power_n he_o will_v have_v a_o prevent_a grace_n which_o be_v not_o the_o grace_n itself_o

that_o may_v come_v of_o this_o boldness_n to_o go_v about_o to_o alter_v term_n that_o have_v get_v into_o our_o divinity_n when_o it_o be_v not_o that_o of_o the_o school_n only_o but_o of_o our_o
