further_o this_o knowledge_n my_o purpose_n be_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n and_o by_o the_o help_n of_o sundry_a learned_a and_o orthodoxal_a writer_n brief_o to_o treat_v of_o god_n election_n and_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o and_o so_o we_o shall_v as_o in_o a_o glass_n behold_v what_o course_n the_o lord_n have_v in_o his_o wisdom_n take_v to_o manifest_v his_o grace_n unto_o we_o and_o to_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o glory_n before_o i_o show_v what_o election_n be_v i_o think_v it_o not_o amiss_o 1._o to_o show_v the_o signification_n of_o the_o word_n because_o it_o be_v ambiguous_a 2._o to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v a_o election_n 3._o and_o that_o the_o doctrine_n thereof_o aught_o to_o be_v learn_v 4._o as_o also_o to_o show_v that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o the_o people_n 5._o and_o in_o what_o manner_n for_o the_o first_o this_o word_n election_n or_o choose_v have_v five_a signification_n 6.13_o first_o it_o signify_v the_o choose_n and_o assume_v of_o a_o man_n to_o some_o work_n or_o office_n so_o saul_n be_v choose_v to_o be_v a_o king_n and_o judas_n to_o be_v a_o apostle_n 6.70_o and_o of_o this_o election_n be_v that_o speech_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v understand_v have_v not_o i_o choose_v you_o twelve_o and_o one_o of_o you_o be_v a_o devil_n 2._o second_o it_o be_v take_v for_o that_o election_n whereby_o the_o lord_n do_v make_v choice_n of_o a_o nation_n to_o be_v his_o people_n upon_o who_o he_o will_v bestow_v his_o law_n and_o ordinance_n and_o more_o singular_a love-token_n then_o upon_o many_o other_o 705.6_o thus_o the_o israelite_n be_v god_n elect_v though_o among_o they_o be_v many_o reprobate_n for_o this_o election_n be_v temporal_a in_o part_n and_o but_o a_o remnant_n in_o comparison_n be_v elect_v as_o touch_v that_o eternal_a decree_n of_o life_n three_o it_o signify_v the_o eternal_a decree_n of_o god_n for_o the_o separate_n and_o adopt_v of_o some_o man_n to_o everlasting_a life_n praedest_fw-la four_o it_o sometime_o signify_v the_o execution_n of_o this_o decree_n ibid._n or_o the_o separation_n of_o certain_a man_n in_o time_n by_o effectual_a vocation_n five_o 11.7_o it_o signify_v in_o that_o speech_n of_o paul_n the_o election_n have_v obtain_v the_o elect_a themselves_o 1.10_o as_o circumcision_n be_v use_v sometime_o for_o circumcise_a bu●_n we_o here_o use_v it_o in_o the_o three_o signification_n and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o word_n now_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o election_n it_o be_v evident_a by_o these_o reason_n first_o by_o express_a testimony_n of_o holy_a scripture_n 1●_n many_o be_v call_v but_o few_o be_v choose_v i_o know_v say_v christ_n who_o i_o have_v choose_v so_o many_o as_o be_v ordain_v to_o eternal_a life_n believe_v endeavour_v to_o make_v your_o election_n sure_a he_o be_v blind_a that_o can_v see_v the_o shine_a of_o the_o sun_n at_o noon_n 4._o second_o the_o scripture_n show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o reprobation_n therefore_o unless_o we_o shall_v say_v that_o all_o be_v reprobate_n we_o must_v needs_o grant_v a_o election_n three_o the_o scripture_n set_v forth_o unto_o we_o the_o cause_n the_o perpetuity_n the_o benefit_n and_o token_n of_o it_o which_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n if_o there_o be_v no_o election_n at_o all_o last_o we_o have_v the_o consent_n of_o the_o church_n in_o all_o age_n ●ypog_n it_o be_v say_v augustine_n horrible_a blasphemy_n to_o deny_v predestination_n have_v now_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v a_o election_n i_o come_v in_o the_o three_o place_n to_o prove_v the_o necessity_n of_o learning_n &_o understand_v this_o doctrine_n which_o i_o will_v do_v with_o these_o two_o reason_n the_o first_o be_v this_o 1._o that_o doctrine_n ought_v to_o be_v learn_v which_o serve_v to_o declare_v god_n glory_n but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o election_n do_v manifest_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n for_o first_o it_o show_v that_o we_o be_v elect_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o praise_n of_o his_o glorious_a grace_n second_o it_o argue_v and_o illustrate_v his_o essential_a property_n as_o his_o omnipotency_n omniscience_n eternity_n mercy_n three_o this_o doctrine_n do_v both_o demonstrate_v and_o defend_v the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n against_o all_o contrariant_n heresy_n and_o error_n and_o will_v arm_v we_o against_o many_o impetuous_a enemy_n of_o the_o truth_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n worthy_a to_o be_v learn_v second_o that_o doctrine_n be_v necessary_o to_o be_v learn_v which_o be_v profitable_a to_o we_o in_o the_o course_n of_o christianity_n but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o election_n will_v avail_v we_o much_o in_o the_o run_n of_o this_o race_n for_o first_o it_o relieve_v our_o faith_n against_o diffidence_n show_v that_o our_o salvation_n hang_v not_o like_o a_o meteour_n in_o the_o air_n but_o be_v firm_o fix_v upon_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n second_o it_o further_v our_o spiritual_a joy_n in_o that_o it_o teach_v that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v constant_a 2.19_o and_o his_o decree_n concern_v our_o welfare_n be_v eternal_a three_o it_o eclipse_v the_o pride_n of_o the_o heart_n show_v that_o god_n dignation_n and_o not_o man_n dignity_n his_o favour_n &_o not_o man_n faith_n his_o mercy_n and_o not_o man_n merit_n be_v the_o fountain_n and_o foundation_n of_o man_n felicity_n four_o it_o provoke_v we_o to_o true_a gratitude_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o all_o good_a work_n 3.5_o because_o it_o teach_v to_o ascribe_v our_o salvation_n whole_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n 1.4_o and_o not_o to_o our_o own_o goodness_n as_o also_o that_o we_o be_v elect_v to_o be_v holy_a and_o not_o to_o follow_v the_o swinge_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o to_o go_v a_o whore_v after_o our_o own_o lust_n five_o this_o doctrine_n minister_v comfort_n to_o we_o and_o help_v our_o patience_n in_o adversity_n ●●_o for_o it_o teach_v that_o we_o be_v predestinate_v to_o wear_v the_o crown_n of_o thorn_n with_o christ_n as_o well_o as_o the_o crown_n of_o glory_n and_o that_o as_o we_o be_v cover_v with_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n as_o with_o a_o canopy_n while_o we_o live_v in_o this_o world_n so_o we_o shall_v be_v honour_v with_o immortal_a glory_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v therefore_o this_o doctrine_n ought_v to_o be_v learned_a and_o remember_v four_o it_o be_v fit_a for_o minister_n to_o acquaint_v their_o people_n with_o this_o doctrine_n the_o reason_n be_v these_o praed_fw-we first_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o some_o of_o the_o old_a prophet_n have_v commend_v this_o doctrine_n unto_o the_o church_n and_o do_v teach_v it_o the_o people_n but_o it_o be_v grievous_a sacrilege_n to_o deprive_v the_o poor_a people_n of_o that_o which_o god_n do_v vouchsafe_v they_o and_o transcendent_a impiety_n to_o deny_v the_o preach_n of_o that_o in_o the_o church_n which_o god_n do_v teach_v in_o his_o word_n for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o church_n for_o whatsoever_o be_v write_v in_o the_o word_n 4_o it_o be_v write_v for_o our_o learning_n that_o through_o the_o consolation_n of_o the_o scripture_n we_o may_v have_v hope_n 16._o second_o the_o gospel_n ought_v to_o be_v preach_v unto_o all_o both_o learned_a and_o unlearned_a but_o the_o doctrine_n of_o election_n be_v a_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o gospel_n yea_o the_o whole_a gospel_n be_v enclose_v within_o the_o ●osome_n of_o this_o doctrine_n if_o we_o respect_v both_o the_o decree_n itself_o and_o the_o execution_n and_o accomplishment_n of_o it_o together_o therefore_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v promulge_v and_o make_v 〈…〉_z unto_o all_o three_o this_o doctrine_n be_v very_o useful_a and_o solatious_a and_o may_v be_v apply_v to_o many_o notable_a purpose_n for_o it_o show_v we_o the_o true_a cause_n of_o all_o our_o happiness_n second_o it_o confute_v the_o pelagian_n who_o ascribe_v salvation_n to_o man_n own_o strength_n and_o merit_n and_o utter_o overturn_v the_o opinion_n of_o election_n for_o work_n or_o faith_n foresee_v three_o it_o serve_v to_o correct_v the_o course_n of_o those_o that_o hinder_v their_o own_o happiness_n by_o their_o presumption_n diffidence_n incredulity_n profaneness_n sensuality_n and_o other_o irregular_a and_o irreligious_a course_n four_o it_o prove_v the_o deity_n of_o christ_n for_o in_o that_o he_o have_v elect_v we_o unto_o life_n ibid._n we_o conclude_v that_o he_o be_v very_a god_n five_o as_o it_o testify_v the_o love_n of_o god_n unto_o we_o so_o likewise_o it_o serve_v to_o inflame_v we_o with_o love_n towards_o he_o for_o who_o will_v not_o love_v he_o of_o who_o he_o be_v so_o love_a and_o to_o who_o he_o be_v so_o much_o oblige_v and_o to_o omit_v many_o use_n which_o may_v be_v make_v of_o this_o doctrine_n it_o show_v the_o great_a power_n and_o authority_n that_o god_n have_v over_o
2.9_o you_o be_v sai_z peter_n a_o choose_a generation_n that_o you_o shall_v show_v forth_o his_o virtue_n that_o have_v call_v you_o 1.15_o and_o again_o as_o he_o which_o have_v call_v you_o be_v

5.13_o god_n the_o father_n do_v call_v we_o in_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n for_o he_o be_v absolute_a lord_n of_o all_o his_o creature_n and_o therefore_o he_o may_v call_v out_o of_o the_o

but_o it_o be_v the_o oily_a drop_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v soften_v the_o heart_n and_o make_v it_o supple_a and_o pliable_a it_o like_a balm_n do_v
