i_o answer_v this_o title_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o the_o loss_n of_o grace_n fall_v from_o god_n signify_v turn_v away_o from_o god_n law_n and_o so_o the_o homily_n itself_o a_o little_a after_o the_o beginning_n do_v expound_v the_o title_n and_o say_v they_o that_o may_v not_o abide_v the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o follow_v the_o stubbornness_n of_o his_o own_o heart_n they_o go_v and_o turn_v away_o from_o god_n if_o by_o fall_v from_o god_n shall_v be_v mean_v lose_v of_o grace_n than_o the_o homily_n must_v be_v conceive_v thus_o to_o reason_n if_o you_o lose_v your_o grace_n than_o god_n will_v take_v his_o grace_n from_o you_o for_o in_o that_o sort_n the_o homily_n do_v reason_n from_o fall_v from_o god_n as_o the_o read_n thereof_o will_v show_v but_o it_o be_v most_o absurd_a to_o think_v that_o the_o homily_n will_v so_o reason_v his_o second_o reason_n for_o the_o same_o purpose_n be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o homily_n itself_o and_o stand_v in_o this_o form_n they_o that_o be_v deprive_v of_o grace_n and_o heavenly_a life_n which_o they_o have_v in_o christ_n and_o become_v as_o without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n give_v into_o the_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n as_o be_v saul_n and_o judas_n they_o lose_v grace_n total_o and_o final_o but_o according_a to_o the_o homily_n the_o true_o justify_v be_v thus_o deprive_v for_o it_o be_v say_v they_o be_v in_o christ_n they_o continue_v sometime_o in_o christ_n therefore_o according_a to_o the_o homily_n the_o true_o justify_v may_v lose_v their_o grace_n total_o and_o final_o by_o this_o argument_n he_o think_v the_o cause_n be_v he_o at_o common_a law_n you_o must_v now_o yield_v or_o turn_v heretic_n against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o he_o be_v much_o mistake_v the_o homily_n do_v affirm_v thus_o much_o by_o the_o way_n of_o rhetorical_a enforcement_n to_o persuade_v man_n to_o take_v heed_n they_o turn_v not_o away_o from_o god_n law_n it_o

but_o rhetorical_a enforcement_n be_v not_o such_o it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v say_v there_o be_v a_o truth_n in_o this_o enforcement_n i_o answer_v what_o truth_n soever_o there_o be_v in_o it_o this_o be_v certain_a the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v not_o contain_v in_o it_o no_o man_n well_o advise_v will_v send_v we_o to_o seek_v for_o the_o faith_n of_o our_o church_n unto_o a_o argument_n urge_v the_o practice_n of_o a_o duty_n in_o a_o popular_a sermon_n but_o what_o that_o truth_n be_v we_o may_v best_o learn_v from_o the_o author_n of_o this_o homily_n himself_o who_o meaning_n we_o find_v to_o be_v comprehend_v in_o these_o two_o thing_n by_o such_o threaten_n of_o god_n take_v away_o of_o grace_n first_o the_o great_a danger_n of_o sin_n second_o the_o necessity_n of_o repentance_n be_v declare_v both_o which_o be_v set_v down_o in_o the_o first_o sermon_n of_o repentance_n a_o little_a from_o the_o beginning_n in_o these_o two_o sentence_n 1_o we_o do_v daily_o by_o our_o disobedience_n fall_v away_o from_o god_n thereby_o purchase_v unto_o ourselves_o if_o he_o shall_v deal_v with_o we_o according_a to_o his_o justice_n eternal_a

utter_o destroy_v and_o now_o you_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n on_o the_o very_a edge_n of_o the_o sword_n yet_o if_o you_o will_v speedy_o return_v unto_o he_o he_o will_v most_o merciful_o receive_v you_o into_o favour_n again_o by_o which_o it_o be_v evident_a the_o opinion_n of_o the_o author_n of_o the_o homily_n be_v not_o that_o man_n that_o have_v grace_n shall_v by_o sin_v be_v bring_v to_o that_o condition_n indeed_o and_o in_o the_o thing_n that_o his_o habit_n of_o grace_n shall_v be_v take_v from_o he_o but_z that_o the_o urge_v of_o such_o severity_n do_v fit_o serve_v to_o restrain_v man_n from_o sin_v &_o to_o reduce_v he_o unto_o repentance_n which_o be_v so_o all_o the_o confidence_n which_o he_o put_v in_o this_o argument_n do_v vanish_v and_o come_v to_o nothing_o and_o himself_o may_v be_v ashamed_a that_o put_v so_o great_a confidence_n therein_o p._n 32._o 33._o and_o 34._o i_o may_v also_o return_v he_o the_o like_a amplification_n unto_o the_o several_a
