A10194 The perpetuitie of a regenerate mans estate VVherein it is manifestly proued by sundry arguments, reasons and authorities. That such as are once truly regenerated and ingrafted into Christ by a liuely faith, can neither finally nor totally fall from grace. It is also proued, that this hath beene the receiued and resolued doctrine, of all the ancient fathers, of all the Protestant churches and writers beyond the seas, and of the Church of England. All the principall arguments that are, or may be obiected against it, either from Scripture, or from reason, are here likewise cleared and answered. By William Prynne Gent: Lincolniensis.

not slumber behold hee that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleepe the Lord himselfe he is the keeper the Lord is his shade vpon the right hand so that the sunne shall not smite him by day nor the moone by night the Lord shall preserue him from all euill he shall preserue his soule the Lord shall preserue his going out his comming in from this time forth and for euermore Psa 121 2 to the end The Lord will create vpon euery place of mount Sion and vpon the assemblies thereof a cloud and a smoake by ●…day and the shining of a flame of fier by night for vpon all the glory shall be a defence and there shall be Tabernacle for a shadow in the day time from the heate and for a place of refuge and for a couert from storme and from raine Is 4 5 6. Marke here and see how vigilant and carefull the Lord is to defend and keepe his Saints from euill not vpon one place only but vpon euery place of mount Sion and vpon all the assemblies thereof and vpon all the glory shall be a defence not onely by day but by day and night to not onely against some sorts of temptations but against all God will be a couering and a refuge against the heate against the storme and against the raine against all temptations and afflictions whatsoeuer God will keepe euery regenerate man as the apple of his owne eye and couer him vnder his wings Deut 32 10 11 he will be with him to the end of the world Math 28 20 he will not faile him nor forsake him Heb 13 6 the Lord is his sheepheard the Lord preserueth his soule and leadeth him on in the paths of Righteousnesse the Lord is on his right hand to preserue and keepe him that hee should not fall that hee should not wholly wander and stray from him Psa 23 1. to 5. Psal 16 8. Psa 37 28 23 24. Psa 125 1 2. Iohn 10 28 29. Iude 24. Hebr 13 6 7 Esay 25 4. cap 26 3. cap 27 3. cap 43 2 therefore its impossible for him either finally or totally to fall from grace All that here can bee replyed is onely this that as long as men are regenerated and ingrafted into Christ that God doth thus defend and keepe them but when they fall away from God then he doth not preserue them To which I answere that I presse this argument onely to this purpose to proue that the Saints of God when they are once regenerated can neuer fall away from grace because God doth presence and gard them thus with his continuall care and presence and not to proue that God doth sence and guard his Saints the vigilent care and custody of God is that which makes the Saints of God to continue Saints so that they can neuer cease to bee Saints any more and therefore the answere is but a meere begging of the question and noe answere at all to the force and drift of this my argument it is onely a deny all of my conclusion not of my premises and so it is no answere but a shift and cauell If you obiect that all these places are meant of a temporall protection from worldly dangers I answere that the most of them if not all of them are principally if not soly intended and meant of a spirituall protection and not of a temporary of a perpetuall protection from spirituall not from temporall dangers as the places themselues doe fully proue how euer let them be intended of a protection from temporall dangers only which cannot be yet this doth necessarily follow that if God hath so great a care to free his Saints from temporary dangers he will certainly haue as great if not a greater care to protect them from spirituall dangers and so the argument standeth still in force The fourth thing in God which may giue vs full assuranc●… of the truth of this assertion is his immutable and perpetuall loue to all such as are once truly regenerated and made the true members of Iesus Christ from which this fourth argument doth arise Those whom God himselfe doth loue with an immutable constant and perpetuall loue and those who can by no meanes possible bee euer seuered from this loue of God it s altogether impossible for them either finally or totally to fall from grace But all those who are once truly regenerated and ingrafted into Christ by a true and liuely faith are such as God himselfe doth loue with an immutable constant and perpetuall loue For whom God doth once loue he loues vnto the end Ioh 13 1 he loues all the true members of Iesus Christ in the same manner as he loueth Christ himselfe and with the same loue that he loueth him Iohn 17 23 24 26 now Gods loue to Iesus Christ is immutable constant and perpetuall therefore must his loue to all his members be so to God he loues them with an euerlasting loue Ier 31 3 he is their louing God and Father from euerlasting to euerlasting Psa 90 1 2 his louing kindnesse indureth for euer and euer vpon them Psa 103 17 his righteousnes shall be foreuer euer and his saluation from ge●…eration to generation the mountaines may remoue and the hills may fall downe but his mercy shall not depart from them neither shall the couenant of his peace be remoued Esay 51 8 and cap 54 13 Gods loue to them is immutable constant and perpetuall Neither can they by any meanes whatsoeuer bee euer vtterly seuered from this loue of God to them in Christ. It is Pauls expresse challeng Rom 8 35 who shall seperate vs from the loue of Christ shall tribulation or distresse or persecution or famine or nakednesse or sword nay saith hee verse 37 31 39 i●… all these things we are more then conquerers through him that loued vs for I am perswaded that neither death nor life nor Angells nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to come nor hight nor depth nor any other creature shall be able to separate not me but vs who are once in Christ and made the Sonnes of God by adoption and grace verse 1 9 14 15 17 29 30 from the loue of God which is in Christ Iesus our Lord so that they may boldly say with Dauid Ps 26 1 the Lord is my light and my saluation whom then shall I feare the Lord is the strength of my life of whom then shall I be afraide God hee loues all such who are once truly regenerated and ingrafted into Christ by a true and liuely faith with an immutable constant perpetuall loue they themselues can neuer be vtterly seuered from this loue of God wherefore it is impossible for them either totally or finally to fall from grace Our subtle Sophisters haue nothing here to answer but their crambemillies coctum that God doth loue all such as are truly regenerated ingrafted into Christ with an immutable constant and perpetuall loue as long
