not_o save_v sure_o therefore_o this_o be_v none_o of_o those_o effect_n which_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n christ_n travel_v for_o seven_o some_o think_v that_o christ_n by_o his_o death_n have_v obtain_v a_o sufficiency_n of_o grace_n for_o all_o man_n so_o that_o all_o man_n may_v or_o may_v not_o believe_v if_o they_o will_v and_o this_o obtainment_n of_o this_o sufficiency_n of_o grace_n for_o all_o they_o think_v be_v the_o great_a and_o next_o effect_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n but_o this_o can_v be_v for_o the_o thing_n be_v not_o true_a viz._n that_o all_o man_n have_v a_o sufficiency_n of_o grace_n by_o christ_n to_o believe_v on_o he_o for_o if_o all_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n have_v such_o a_o power_n from_o christ_n to_o believe_v on_o he_o then_o 1._o the_o jew_n have_v a_o power_n to_o abstain_v from_o their_o unbelief_n in_o put_v christ_n to_o death_n and_o yet_o they_o have_v this_o power_n from_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o if_o so_o than_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o christ_n shall_v not_o have_v die_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o unbelief_n and_o yet_o possible_a by_o virtue_n of_o christ_n death_n for_o they_o to_o abstain_v from_o the_o put_v he_o to_o death_n which_o be_v a_o contradiction_n neither_o can_v it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o have_v this_o power_n give_v they_o upon_o the_o foresight_n of_o christ_n death_n for_o the_o same_o foresight_n do_v foresee_v that_o christ_n shall_v be_v put_v to_o death_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o unbelief_n 2._o if_o all_o man_n have_v such_o a_o power_n to_o believe_v in_o christ_n then_o either_o they_o must_v have_v a_o inward_a principle_n of_o grace_n and_o faith_n or_o they_o can_v act_v without_o a_o inward_a principle_n but_o they_o have_v no_o inward_a principle_n of_o faith_n and_o grace_n for_o than_o they_o shall_v be_v believer_n for_o it_o be_v the_o inward_a habit_n and_o principle_n which_o denominate_v the_o man_n and_o not_o this_o or_o that_o act_n for_o a_o man_n be_v a_o believer_n though_o he_o be_v asleep_a nor_o can_v any_o creature_n put_v forth_o a_o act_n without_o a_o inward_a principle_n suitable_a to_o the_o act_n the_o eye_n can_v act_v in_o see_v without_o a_o inward_a principle_n of_o sight_n nor_o the_o ear_n hear_v without_o a_o inward_a principle_n of_o hear_v the_o herb_n can_v grow_v without_o a_o inward_a

man_n of_o the_o world_n have_v not_o a_o inward_a principle_n of_o faith_n and_o grace_n and_o therefore_o all_o the_o man_n of_o the_o world_n have_v not_o a_o power_n to_o believe_v 3._o the_o apostle_n paul_n tell_v we_o plain_o that_o a_o natural_a man_n receive_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n neither_o can_v he_o 1._o cor._n 3_o 1●_n but_o if_o he_o have_v a_o power_n to_o believe_v than_o he_o can_v receive_v they_o for_o receive_v be_v our_o believe_a 1_o john_n 12._o neither_o can_v it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o the_o natural_a man_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o weak_a christian_a for_o if_o the_o weak_a christian_n can_v receive_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n much_o less_o the_o wicked_a and_o the_o pure_a natural_a man_n nor_o do_v the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o a_o natural_a man_n as_o he_o be_v mere_o consider_v in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n abstract_v from_o all_o gospel_n grace_n and_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n for_o than_o he_o shall_v speak_v to_o no_o

saviour_n christ_n tell_v the_o jew_n john_n 10.26_o you_o believe_v not_o because_o you_o be_v not_o of_o my_o sheep_n it_o seem_v then_o that_o all_o the_o world_n be_v not_o the_o sheep_n of_o christ_n for_o say_v he_o you_o be_v not_o of_o my_o sheep_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o some_o do_v believe_v be_v because_o they_o be_v of_o christ_n sheep_n and_o why_o other_o believe_v not_o be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o his_o sheep_n now_o if_o the_o reason_n why_o some_o believe_v and_o other_o not_o be_v because_o some_o be_v of_o his_o sheep_n and_o other_o not_z then_o all_o the_o world_n have_v not_o a_o power_n to_o believe_v for_o if_o all_o the_o world_n have_v a_o power_n to_o believe_v than_o those_o that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o sheep_n may_v believe_v and_o if_o those_o

and_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n verse_n 4._o it_o seem_v then_o that_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o go●pel_n be_v confirm_v to_o we_o by_o miracle_n and_o the_o apostle_n preach_v yet_o the_o miracle_n and_o preach_v of_o the_o apostle_n be_v not_o say_v in_o scripture_n to_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n which_o yet_o may_v very_o well_o be_v say_v if_o christ_n death_n shall_v confirm_v it_o by_o way_n of_o testimony_n 5._o if_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n do_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n by_o way_n of_o testimony_n than_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n may_v have_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n for_o when_o god_n testify_v the_o truth_n of_o his_o promise_n to_o adam_n gen._n 15._o he_o say_v to_o he_o take_v thou_o a_o heifer_n of_o three_o year_n old_a and_o a_o she_o

we_o plain_o heb._n 9_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n can_v not_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n 6._o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n do_v testify_v god_n willingness_n to_o forgive_v sinner_n that_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o christ_n blood_n shed_v for_o many_o for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o though_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n seal_v to_o we_o evidence_v testify_a and_o assure_v we_o of_o god_n love_n b●_n christ_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o a_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n as_o christ_n blood_n be_v which_o do_v not_o only_o ●eal_v to_o we_o but_o be_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n itself_o as_o it_o lay_v between_o god_n the_o father_n and_o he_o but_o if_o christ_n death_n do_v only_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n by_o way_n of_o testimony_n than_o the_o lord_n supper_n may_v as_o well_o be_v say_v to_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n which_o be_v not_o where_o affirm_v in_o the_o scripture_n but_o 7._o look_v how_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n shall_v have_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n in_o case_n he_o have_v stand_v and_o look_v how_o he_o break_v that_o covenant_n by_o his_o disobedience_n so_o do_v the_o death_n and_o obedience_n of_o christ_n the_o second_o adam_n confirm_v the_o new_a covenant_n now_o if_o the_o first_o adam_n have_v stand_v and_o confirm_v that_o covenant_n he_o have_v confirm_v it_o by_o perform_v the_o condition_n of_o it_o and_o he_o break_v it_o by_o not_o observe_v and_o not_o do_v the_o condition_n of_o it_o so_o the_o second_o adam_n christ_n do_v confirm_v the_o new_a covenant_n by_o his_o death_n and_o in_o that_o by_o his_o obedience_n he_o do_v perform_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n for_o his_o seed_n thus_o i_o say_v he_o confirm_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n even_o by_o perform_v the_o condition_n of_o it_o and_o this_o confirmation_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v the_o next_o and_o most_o immediate_a

death_n of_o christ_n second_o as_o for_o the_o remote_a effect_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v many_o as_o 1._o freedom_n from_o the_o law_n curse_n and_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n
