A29125	A compendious answer to a book called A brief survay of the judgement of Mr. John Goodvvin, and the Church of God walking with him, touching their reasons of dissenting from many of their brethren, in these imprtant heads of doctrine; 1. Election and reprobation. 2. The death of Christ. 3. The grace of God in and about conversion. 4. The liberty or power of the will, or of the creature man. 5. The perseverance of the saints. VVherein the absurdities of all their dissenting doctrines are clearly exhibited, by a loving friend to the truth it self, Ellis Bradshaw.

be_v that_o god_n have_v not_o decree_v the_o reprobation_n of_o any_o infant_n die_v before_o the_o commission_n of_o actual_a sin_n answ_n i_o answer_v i_o be_v once_o of_o your_o mind_n in_o this_o particular_a and_o be_v so_o persuade_v upon_o the_o same_o ground_n that_o you_o here_o hold_v forth_o but_o through_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v long_o since_o resolve_v that_o it_o be_v not_o true_a first_o i_o think_v as_o in_o your_o four_o reason_n that_o the_o case_n of_o all_o infant_n die_v before_o the_o commission_n of_o actual_a sin_n to_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o because_o i_o apprehend_v they_o be_v all_o alike_o and_o in_o a_o like_a measure_n by_o nature_n child_n of_o wrath_n one_o as_o well_o and_o as_o much_o as_o another_o and_o so_o either_o all_o save_v or_o

better_a consideration_n as_o it_o please_v god_n to_o give_v i_o to_o understand_v that_o though_o jew_n by_o nature_n be_v child_n of_o wrath_n as_o well_o as_o gentile_n which_o be_v the_o proper_a

and_o first_o then_o for_o proof_n that_o all_o child_n when_o new_o bear_v be_v not_o in_o the_o same_o measure_n flesh_n nor_o alike_o fleshly_a nor_o that_o they_o be_v all_o alike_o and_o in_o
