A85957	The fort-royal of Christianity defended. Or, a demonstration of the divinity of scripture, by way of excellency called the Bible. With a discussion of some of the great controversies in religion, about universal redemption, free-will, original sin, &c. For the establishing of Christians in truth in these atheistical trying times. / By Thomas Gery, B.D. and Rector of Barwell in Leicestershire.

it_o it_o will_v be_v expedient_a for_o i_o to_o premise_v certain_a theological_a conclusion_n or_o principle_n which_o all_o orthodox_n divine_v unanimous_o and_o univocal_o have_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v undoubted_a truth_n as_o praecognita_fw-la and_o canon_n to_o have_v recourse_n unto_o for_o the_o decision_n and_o determination_n of_o any_o controversy_n as_o need_n shall_v require_v which_o if_o they_o deny_v to_o assent_v unto_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v dispute_v with_o as_o the_o proverb_n speak_v contra_fw-la negantem_fw-la principia_fw-la non_fw-la est_fw-la disputandum_fw-la there_o be_v no_o disputation_n to_o be_v hold_v with_o he_o that_o will_v deny_v the_o principle_n of_o art_n the_o principle_n i_o think_v fit_a to_o premise_v be_v these_o four_o 1._o that_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o be_v authentical_a and_o creditable_a of_o itself_o 2._o that_o there_o be_v no_o contradiction_n in_o the_o canonical_a scripture_n 3._o that_o the_o same_o make_v and_o so_o by_o consequence_n allow_v to_o be_v make_v distinction_n between_o thing_n that_o sometime_o in_o scripture_n have_v the_o same_o denomination_n this_o appear_v by_o many_o instance_n in_o scripture_n whereof_o i_o will_v name_v these_o three_o fear_v faith_n and_o sorrow_n first_o about_o fear_n the_o scripture_n mention_v a_o fear_n which_o be_v gracious_a and_o godly_a which_o the_o learned_a have_v term_v filial_a and_o a_o fear_v which_o be_v graceless_a which_o the_o learned_a have_v term_v servile_a of_o this_o we_o have_v a_o example_n in_o 2_o king_n 17.33_o 34._o where_n it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o babylonian_n in_o the_o former_a verse_n that_o they_o fear_v god_n and_o then_o in_o the_o latter_a verse_n that_o they_o fear_v he_o not_o whence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o a_o distinction_n must_v be_v make_v of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n whereof_o some_o be_v a_o gracious_a fear_n and_o some_o a_o graceless_a otherwise_o there_o will_v be_v a_o contradiction_n between_o the_o two_o verse_n which_o scripture_n admit_v not_o second_o about_o faith_n the_o scripture_n do_v distinguish_v it_o into_o these_o two_o sort_n namely_o a_o faith_n that_o have_v work_n and_o a_o faith_n that_o be_v without_o work_n which_o it_o also_o call_v a_o dead_a faith_n james_n 2.17_o i'faith_o if_o it_o have_v no_o work_n be_v dead_a be_v alone_o three_o about_o sorrow_n the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o a_o godly_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n and_o a_o worldly_a sorrow_n in_o 2_o cor._n 7.10_o godly_a sorrow_n work_v repentance_n to_o salvation_n but_o the_o sorrow_n of_o the_o world_n work_v death_n hereby_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o a_o distinction_n be_v sometime_o to_o be_v make_v betwixt_o thing_n that_o have_v the_o same_o denomination_n the_o four_o principle_n which_o i_o shall_v premise_v be_v this_o that_o seem_a contradiction_n in_o scripture_n be_v so_o to_o be_v expound_v by_o help_n of_o other_o text_n either_o speak_v of_o the_o same_o point_n or_o otherwise_o that_o they_o may_v symphonize_v and_o accord_v together_o which_o help_v the_o scripture_n afford_v in_o one_o place_n or_o other_o if_o our_o adversary_n will_v yield_v to_o be_v try_v about_o the_o forementioned_a controversy_n by_o these_o old_a canon_n which_o have_v be_v universal_o receive_v for_o undoubted_a truth_n by_o all_o christian_a church_n in_o primitive_a time_n when_o the_o water_n run_v clear_a from_o under_o the_o threshold_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n i_o shall_v adventure_v to_o bear_v the_o disgrace_n if_o i_o do_v not_o convince_v they_o of_o error_n about_o each_o controversy_n that_o i_o have_v before_o name_v the_o first_o controversy_n handle_v about_o election_n their_o first_o error_n that_o i_o shall_v undertake_v to_o confute_v be_v their_o assertion_n that_o god_n election_n of_o man_n unto_o salvation_n be_v ground_v upon_o his_o foresight_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o obedience_n or_o sanctification_n and_o good_a work_n that_o be_v that_o he_o elect_v such_o and_o such_o man_n to_o life_n and_o salvation_n because_o he_o forsee_v that_o they_o will_v believe_v and_o walk_v in_o obedience_n to_o his_o commandment_n this_o assertion_n i_o shall_v prove_v to_o be_v a_o error_n by_o these_o four_o argument_n the_o first_o argument_n if_o man_n shall_v therefore_o believe_v because_o they_o be_v elect_v and_o ordain_v to_o eternal_a life_n than_o they_o be_v not_o elect_v and_o ordain_v to_o eternal_a life_n because_o they_o will_v believe_v this_o consequence_n can_v be_v deny_v by_o any_o intelligent_a man_n but_o man_n shall_v therefore_o believe_v because_o they_o be_v elect_v and_o ordain_v to_o eternal_a life_n and_o therefore_o be_v not_o elect_v and_o ordain_v to_o it_o because_o they_o will_v believe_v the_o assumption_n i_o prove_v out_o of_o act_n 13.48_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o as_o many_o as_o be_v ordain_v to_o eternal_a life_n believe_v here_o faith_n be_v make_v the_o fruit_n and_o effect_n of_o election_n to_o eternal_a life_n and_o therefore_o can_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o for_o nothing_o can_v be_v the_o cause_n and_o effect_v too_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n my_o second_o argument_n be_v this_o if_o man_n be_v elect_v or_o choose_v that_o they_o may_v be_v holy_a than_o their_o election_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o ground_n and_o cause_n of_o their_o holiness_n and_o sanctification_n but_o man_n be_v elect_v that_o they_o may_v be_v holy_a so_o say_v the_o scripture_n ephes_n 1.4_o he_o have_v choose_v we_o in_o he_o before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v holy_a and_o without_o blame_n before_o he_o in_o love_n therefore_o election_n be_v the_o ground_n and_o cause_n of_o holiness_n or_o sanctification_n and_o not_o holiness_n the_o ground_n and_o cause_n of_o election_n the_o three_o argument_n if_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n will_v be_v the_o ground_n and_o first_o cause_n of_o man_n election_n and_o predestination_n to_o salvation_n than_o god_n foresight_n of_o their_o sanctification_n and_o good_a work_n can_v be_v the_o first_o cause_n and_o ground_n thereof_o this_o consequence_n be_v undeniable_a but_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n will_n be_v the_o first_o cause_n and_o ground_n of_o man_n election_n and_o predestination_n to_o salvation_n therefore_o god_n foresight_n of_o their_o sanctification_n and_o good_a work_n can_v be_v the_o first_o cause_n and_o ground_n thereof_o the_o a_o sumption_n i_o prove_v from_o these_o two_o text_n of_o scripture_n pass_v by_o many_o other_o to_o the_o same_o purpose_n rom._n 9.11_o s._n paul_n there_o affirm_v that_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n according_a to_o election_n stand_v not_o of_o work_n but_o of_o he_o that_o call_v where_o work_n be_v deny_v and_o god_n will_v affirm_v to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o election_n and_o ephes_n 1.5_o and_o again_o verse_n 11._o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n will_n be_v make_v the_o ground_n and_o cause_n of_o man_n election_n to_o salvation_n the_o word_n in_o the_o five_o verse_n be_v these_o have_v predestinate_v we_o to_o the_o adoption_n of_o child_n by_o jesus_n christ_n unto_o himself_o according_a to_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n and_o the_o word_n in_o the_o 11._o verse_n be_v these_o in_o who_o also_o we_o have_v obtain_v a_o inheritance_n be_v predestinate_v according_a to_o the_o purpose_n of_o he_o who_o work_v all_o thing_n after_o the_o council_n of_o his_o own_o will_n if_o the_o adversary_n answer_v that_o election_n may_v be_v according_a to_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n will_n and_o yet_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n may_v not_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o election_n to_o this_o i_o reply_v that_o the_o apostle_n make_v it_o plain_a in_o the_o 11._o verse_n that_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n will_n as_o the_o cause_n of_o election_n by_o the_o addition_n of_o these_o last_o word_n in_o the_o verse_n who_o work_v all_o thing_n after_o the_o counsel_n of_o his_o own_o will_n for_o if_o he_o work_v all_o thing_n after_o the_o counsel_n of_o his_o own_o will_n than_o election_n be_v necessary_o one_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o work_v after_o the_o council_n of_o his_o own_o will_n and_o therefore_o the_o counsel_n of_o his_o own_o will_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o the_o four_o argument_n be_v this_o if_o good_a work_n be_v no_o cause_n of_o salvation_n then_o neither_o of_o election_n unto_o salvation_n this_o be_v plain_a because_o election_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o salvation_n but_o good_a work_n be_v no_o cause_n of_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o no_o cause_n of_o election_n the_o minor_a proposition_n or_o assumption_n be_v prove_v by_o ephes_n 2.8_o &_o 9_o verses_z where_o the_o apostle_n say_v by_o grace_n you_o be_v save_v through_o faith_n and_o that_o not_o of_o yourselves_o it_o be_v the_o
