increase_n and_o stability_n as_o in_o the_o entrance_n and_o begin_v thereof_o last_o if_o we_o desire_v to_o take_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n the_o true_a form_n of_o speak_v we_o ought_v to_o call_v the_o very_a act_n of_o perseverance_n the_o gift_n of_o god_n for_o if_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o only_o call_v the_o quality_n itself_o of_o faith_n the_o gift_n of_o god_n but_o do_v declare_v 1.19_o that_o to_o believe_v be_v give_v free_o to_o man_n than_o also_o ought_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v as_o god_n gift_n not_o only_a perseverance_n but_o also_o the_o act_n itself_o of_o persevere_v this_o be_v most_o manifest_o teach_v in_o the_o place_n allege_v where_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o it_o be_v give_v to_o the_o philippian_n not_o only_o to_o believe_v in_o christ_n but_o to_o suffer_v for_o his_o sake_n which_o what_o other_o thing_n be_v it_o then_o to_o persevere_v in_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n under_o the_o cross_n of_o persecution_n 10._o to_o this_o purpose_n saint_n anstine_n we_o affirm_v that_o perseverance_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n by_o which_o we_o abide_v in_o christ_n constant_o unto_o the_o end_n and_o it_o be_v reckon_v among_o the_o error_n of_o the_o massilian_n aug._n that_o they_o deny_v that_o such_o perseverance_n be_v give_v to_o any_o from_o which_o he_o be_v not_o suffer_v to_o stray_v which_o error_n saint_n austin_n refute_v in_o his_o book_n of_o perseverance_n chap._n 6._o it_o remain_v now_o that_o we_o prove_v this_o gift_n of_o perseverance_n to_o spring_v from_o the_o fountain_n of_o election_n to_o the_o confirm_v of_o which_o we_o will_v produce_v one_o argument_n only_o that_o which_o be_v give_v out_o of_o a_o effectual_a intention_n to_o save_v without_o fail_v that_o person_n to_o

salvation_n without_o fail_v but_o now_o such_o be_v the_o force_n and_o nature_n of_o this_o gift_n that_o we_o can_v conceive_v that_o perseverance_n be_v ordain_v or_o give_v unto_o any_o except_o upon_o a_o former_a intention_n both_o to_o order_n and_o bring_v the_o same_o man_n infallible_o unto_o salvation_n for_o whatsoever_o benefit_n do_v accrue_v unto_o any_o by_o any_o divine_a grace_n that_o whole_o without_o doubt_n the_o author_n of_o that_o grace_n decree_v to_o confer_v upon_o he_o to_o who_o he_o vouchsafe_v to_o impart_v the_o same_o grace_n but_o by_o the_o immovable_a purpose_n of_o god_n whosoever_o shall_v persevere_v shall_v be_v save_v therefore_o to_o whosoever_o god_n purpose_v to_o give_v perseverance_n it_o be_v a_o manifest_a evidence_n that_o the_o same_o

now_o be_v we_o to_o treat_v of_o it_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o certainty_n of_o the_o subject_n to_o wit_n in_o as_o much_o as_o that_o thing_n which_o be_v certain_a in_o itself_o be_v also_o by_o

moreover_o we_o say_v rather_o that_o the_o faithful_a may_v or_o can_v have_v within_o themselves_o this_o persuasion_n then_o that_o they_o be_v always_o actual_o so_o persuade_v because_o this_o
