as_o i_o show_v you_o before_o he_o pull_v down_o the_o main_a build_n of_o his_o opinion_n in_o his_o 61._o page_n by_o confess_v that_o there_o be_v a_o general_a offer_n of_o grace_n and_o page_n 62._o where_o he_o confess_v there_o it_o a_o umversalitâ—ie_n of_o the_o offer_n of_o christ_n which_o offer_v none_o that_o regard_v the_o honour_n of_o god_n will_v doubt_v to_o be_v real_a and_o here_o he_o raze_v the_o very_a foundation_n of_o his_o contradictious_a doctrine_n in_o that_o he_o acknowledge_v that_o they_o who_o miss_v of_o mercy_n exclude_v themselves_o through_o unbelief_n and_o like_o man_n refuse_v help_n when_o they_o be_v almost_o drown_v bring_v destruction_n to_o themselves_o through_o their_o neglect_n or_o refusal_n not_o strive_v to_o lay_v hold_n of_o mercy_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v but_o question_v whether_o christ_n be_v offer_v they_o with_o a_o intent_n to_o save_v they_o from_o whence_o these_o coclusion_n do_v very_o free_o flow_v 1._o that_o there_o be_v mercy_n for_o they_o to_o lay_v hold_v on_o by_o faith_n who_o perish_v through_o unbelief_n 2._o that_o they_o who_o enjoy_v not_o this_o mercy_n exclude_v themselves_o from_o it_o 3._o that_o it_o be_v beyond_o doubt_n and_o question_n that_o god_n offer_v of_o christ_n to_o man_n be_v with_o a_o purpose_n of_o his_o part_n to_o save_v they_o 4._o that_o they_o who_o will_v be_v save_v by_o christ_n must_v strive_v to_o lay_v hold_n on_o he_o all_o which_o be_v pure_a heavenly_a and_o eternal_a truth_n and_o come_v from_o mr._n troughton_n as_o blessing_n from_o balaam_n his_o heart_n dissent_v from_o his_o hand_n and_o tongue_n for_o another_o while_o you_o shall_v find_v mr._n troughton_n peremptory_o conclude_v that_o god_n never_o intend_v his_o son_n or_o mercy_n by_o he_o to_o all_o as_o page_z 52._o of_o his_o book_n where_o he_o speak_v these_o very_a word_n in_o effect_n that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n to_o give_v his_o son_n to_o die_v for_o all_o and_o that_o his_o death_n shall_v be_v a_o sufficient_a price_n for_o all_o be_v never_o intend_v by_o god_n now_o how_o shall_v god_n send_v down_o his_o son_n to_o save_v that_o which_o be_v lose_v and_o yet_o not_o give_v he_o to_o die_v for_o they_o or_o that_o he_o shall_v offer_v his_o son_n to_o more_o than_o he_o give_v he_o to_o die_v for_o be_v senseless_a to_o imagine_v except_o we_o shall_v make_v god_n a_o mocker_n of_o his_o poor_a undo_v creature_n as_o mr._n tronghton_n and_o other_o sometime_o do_v in_o another_o place_n you_o shall_v hear_v he_o say_v that_o god_n appoint_v or_o decree_v man_n to_o be_v disobedient_a how_o then_o can_v their_o destruction_n be_v of_o themselves_o yea_o how_o can_v their_o sin_n be_v of_o themselves_o if_o god_n appoint_v they_o to_o be_v disobedient_a another_o while_n that_o christ_n merit_v faith_n for_o the_o saint_n and_o that_o he_o work_v or_o act_v faith_n in_o the_o creature_n how_o then_o can_v that_o be_v true_a which_o he_o say_v here_o that_o man_n must_v strive_v to_o lay_v hold_n on_o christ_n and_o they_o that_o do_v not_o perish_v through_o unbelief_n can_v there_o be_v any_o possibility_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v for_o who_o christ_n meirt_v not_o faith_n see_v all_o that_o do_v believe_v have_v faith_n merit_v for_o they_o and_o it_o be_v not_o they_o that_o believe_v but_o christ_n in_o they_o or_o that_o they_o believe_v at_o least_o by_o a_o unresistable_a power_n sure_o then_o they_o lay_v not_o hold_v of_o the_o rope_n as_o mr._n troughton_n say_v draw_v man_n out_o to_o do_v not_o ask_v question_n much_o less_o do_v they_o strive_v so_o to_o do_v but_o the_o rope_n lay_v hold_v on_o they_o and_o pluck_v they_o up_o whether_o they_o will_v or_o no._n and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o mr._n troughtons_n doctrine_n be_v but_o like_a rope_n of_o sand_n it_o hold_v not_o together_o none_o can_v lay_v any_o sure_a hold_n of_o it_o it_o will_v not_o hold_v his_o own_o

what_o he_o build_v in_o a_o month_n he_o throw_v down_o in_o a_o minute_n for_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o any_o soul_n can_v believe_v in_o god_n or_o christ_n through_o his_o teach_v for_o he_o say_v that_o god_n do_v not_o give_v his_o son_n to_o die_v for_o all_o yet_o he_o offer_v grace_n to_o all_o that_o redemption_n be_v not_o universal_a but_o the_o tender_v of_o christ_n be_v universal_a that_o god_n do_v let_v or_o send_v down_o christ_n to_o save_v lose_v man_n and_o they_o be_v not_o to_o question_v it_o but_o yet_o he_o appoint_v the_o great_a part_n of_o man_n to_o
