A42403	Mysteries unvailed wherein the doctrine of redemption by Jesus Christ, flowing from the glorious grace and everlasting love of God, the very fountain of life and salvation unto lost sinners, is handled : the most usuall Scriptures explained and reasons answered, which are urged for the universality of the death of Christ for all persons : vvherein the unsoundness of this opinion, together with divers other conclusions as depending upon it, are discovered and the truth unvailed / by Robert Garner.

so_o it_o agree_v with_o that_o in_o rom_n 4.5_o he_o justify_v the_o ungodly_a there_o meaning_n be_v when_o we_o be_v without_o strength_n and_o altogether_o ungodly_a one_o chtist_n die_v for_o we_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o those_o who_o enjoy_v the_o riches_n and_o benefit_n of_o his_o death_n that_o be_v he_o by_o the_o price_n and_o power_n o●_n his_o death_n have_v redeem_v we_o justify_v we_o save_v we_o and_o set_v we_o in_o a_o estate_n of_o blessedness_n before_o god_n through_o faith_n in_o he_o and_o all_o this_o when_o w●_n be_v altogether_o ungodly_a and_o without_o strength_n and_o that_o which_o follow_v in_o the_o 8.9.10.11_o verse_n will_v justify_v this_o interpretation_n say_v he_o herein_o i●_n the_o exceed_a greatness_n of_o god_n love_n towards_o we_o in_o that_o while_o we_o be_v sinner_n ungodly_a christ_n die_v for_o we_o that_o be_v we_o be_v in_o ourselves_o before_o god_n justify_v by_o his_o death_n or_o bloodshedding_n for_o so_o it_o be_v say_v in_o verse_n 9_o we_o be_v now_o justify_v by_o his_o blood_n and_o then_o follow_v a_o accompany_v glorious_a fruit_n of_o this_o our_o justification_n we_o shall_v be_v save_v from_o wrath_n through_o

sweet_o depend_v upon_o each_o other_o and_o whereas_o he_o allege_v the_o 15._o verse_n i_o conceive_v it_o do_v right_o and_o excellent_o hold_v forth_o thus_o much_o to_o wit_n that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gift_n by_o grace_n which_o be_v by_o one_o man_n jesus_n christ_n be_v much_o more_o and_o have_v abound_v much_o more_o unto_o many_o than_o that_o one_o offence_n of_o that_o one_o man_n adam_n which_o bring_v death_n unto_o they_o for_o say_v he_o the_o judgement_n be_v by_o one_o sin_n unto_o condemnation_n but_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o gift_n by_o grace_n be_v of_o many_o offence_n unto_o justification_n mark_v the_o abundance_n of_o this_o grace_n to_o who_o it_o be_v give_v it_o be_v of_o many_o offence_n unto_o justification_n and_o therefore_o say_v he_o whereas_o by_o that_o one_o offence_n of_o that_o one_o man_n death_n reign_v by_o one_o much_o more_o they_o which_o receive_v this_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o

one_o jesus_n christ_n this_o be_v the_o substance_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o 15.16_o and_o 17._o verse_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v verse_n 18_o to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n or_o justification_n of_o life_n in_o christ_n for_o all_o person_n for_o so_o he_o say_v in_o page_n 23._o line_n 7._o i_o answer_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n still_o drive_v at_o be_v to_o show_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gift_n by_o grace_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n have_v much_o more_o abound_v above_o the_o offence_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o for_o say_v he_o as_o by_o that_o one_o offence_n of_o one_o man_n judgement_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o condemnation_n that_o be_v it_o come_v powerful_o upon_o they_o even_o so_o by_o that_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n alone_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n that_o be_v it_o come_v glorious_o and_o powerful_o upon_o they_o unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v how_o weak_o and_o unwarrantable_o he_o allege_v this_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n as_o he_o say_v for_o all_o person_n when_o as_o it_o be_v most_o manifest_a that_o the_o apostle_n in_o these_o word_n speak_v of_o those_o only_a who_o be_v in_o themselves_o before_o god_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n actual_a partaker_n of_o justification_n of_o life_n by_o he_o and_o this_o will_v appear_v from_o two_o reason_n first_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n here_o mention_v it_o be_v that_o which_o in_o the_o high_a degree_n stand_v in_o opposition_n to_o condemnation_n mention_v in_o the_o same_o verse_n justification_n of_o life_n that_o be_v righteousness_n of_o life_n remission_n of_o sin_n blessedness_n salvation_n eternal_a life_n it_o be_v the_o same_o justification_n mention_v in_o chapt._n 3.24.26_o chapt._n 4.5_o and_o in_o the_o 4._o verse_n of_o this_o chapter_n also_o second_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o application_n of_o this_o justification_n of_o life_n unto_o the_o person_n here_o mention_v in_o verse_n 15._o it_o be_v say_v this_o exceed_a grace_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n have_v abound_v unto_o many_o and_o in_o verse_n 16_o it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v unto_o their_o justification_n and_o in_o this_o 18._o ver_fw-la it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n or_o the_o free_a gift_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n unto_o justification_n of_o life_n and_o in_o verse_n 19_o it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o this_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n many_o shall_v be_v make_v righteous_a and_o that_o which_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v observe_v be_v that_o in_o verse_n seventeen_o where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o this_o justification_n and_o salvation_n here_o mention_v be_v speak_v of_o those_o only_o who_o receive_v this_o abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o jesus_n christ_n those_o who_o receive_v it_o that_o be_v those_o to_o who_o the_o lord_n give_v his_o grace_n and_o righteousness_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v observe_v that_o in_o the_o 15.16_o and_o 17._o verse_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n be_v ●_o time_n call_v ●_o gift_n which_o to_o whosoever_o the_o lord_n give_v they_o shall_v reign_v in_o life_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n it_o appear_v that_o by_o all_o man_n in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o verse_n we_o can_v neither_o understand_v all_o person_n from_o first_o to_o last_o neither_o can_v his_o distinction_n be_v justify_v from_o hence_o for_o he_o here_o speak_v or_o such_o a_o justification_n of_o life_n as_o come_n upon_o man_n or_o be_v give_v unto_o they_o according_a to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v that_o in_o 2_o cor._n 5.19_o to_o justify_v his_o distinction_n i_o shall_v clear_v that_o in_o its_o due_a place_n from_o such_o a_o sense_n and_o shall_v refer_v the_o reader_n to_o what_o i_o shall_v there_o lay_v down_o in_o the_o open_n of_o this_o scripture_n and_o whereas_o he_o further_o allege_v the_o first_o of_o john_n 5.10.11.12_o i_o conceive_v that_o this_o scripture_n teach_v we_o thus_o much_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v the_o witness_n in_o himself_o and_o bear_v record_n to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o wit_n that_o eternal_a life_n be_v his_o gift_n through_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o this_o life_n be_v no_o way_n to_o be_v obtain_v but_o through_o faith_n in_o christ_n only_o and_o that_o therefore_o whosoever_o seek_v for_o life_n and_o salvation_n by_o his_o own_o work_n or_o righteousness_n or_o in_o any_o other_o thing_n which_o stand_v in_o opposition_n to_o jesus_n christ_n crucify_v and_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a he_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n because_o he_o receive_v or_o believe_v not_o the_o record_n which_o god_n give_v of_o his_o son_n and_o whereas_o he_o think_v to_o strengthen_v his_o distinction_n by_o say_v there_o be_v life_n and_o justification_n in_o christ_n for_o all_o person_n i_o desire_v the_o reader_n to_o consider_v that_o these_o word_n in_o christ_n when_o they_o be_v speak_v of_o or_o apply_v unto_o redemption_n justification_n salvation_n and_o the_o like_a they_o do_v proper_o signify_v by_o or_o through_o christ_n and_o hold_v forth_o unto_o we_o a_o rest_n glorious_a and_o sure_a en●o●ment_n which_o those_o have_v of_o redemption_n justification_n and_o salvation_n in_o christ_n of_o who_o the_o thing_n be_v speak_v so_o the_o word_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v in_o ephes_n 1.7.11.13_o in_o who_o we_o have_v redemption_n through_o his_o blood_n the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n in_o who_o also_o we_o have_v obtain_v a_o inheritance_n in_o who_o also_o you_o be_v seal_v with_o that_o holy_a spirit_n of_o promise_n who_o see_v not_o but_o that_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n to_o wit_n we_o do_v real_o and_o ure_o enjoy_v redemption_n

as_o indeed_o all_o his_o posterity_n so_o consider_v be_v this_o be_v the_o first_o death_n of_o these_o tree_n which_o judas_n speak_v of_o but_o these_o man_n be_v plant_v where_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v profess_v and_o hold_v forth_o in_o power_n and_o simplicity_n by_o those_o who_o be_v the_o call_v of_o jesus_n christ_n they_o take_v upon_o they_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o for_o a_o time_n make_v a_o flourish_a confession_n live_v saintlike_a appear_v as_o though_o they_o be_v live_v tree_n bring_v forth_o much_o outward_a fruit_n of_o knowledge_n and_o righteousness_n forsake_v many_o sin_n and_o do_v many_o thing_n in_o themselves_o holy_a good_a and_o righteous_a and_o thus_o they_o appear_v like_o live_v fruit-bearing_a tree_n but_o after_o a_o while_n not_o have_v life_n and_o root_n within_o in_o time_n of_o trial_n and_o for_o covetous_a end_n they_o fall_v away_o from_o that_o profession_n wither_v away_o by_o degree_n in_o that_o love_n knowledge_n and_o righteousness_n which_o they_o once_o make_v profession_n of_o until_o after_o a_o while_n they_o be_v without_o fruit_n bring_v forth_o nothing_o but_o bitter_a unrighteous_a and_o deadly_a fruit_n and_o this_o be_v the_o other_o and_o so_o a_o double_a death_n which_o judas_n here_o speak_v of_o which_o these_o tree_n be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o and_o thus_o they_o be_v tree_n who_o fruit_n wither_v without_o fruit_n twice_o dead_a pluck_v up_o by_o the_o root_n thus_o these_o scripture_n with_o other_o of_o the_o like_a nature_n do_v teach_v we_o that_o many_o who_o have_v make_v a_o large_a and_o flourish_a profession_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v their_o lord_n and_o saviour_n and_o themselves_o to_o be_v his_o servant_n and_o redeem_v one_o have_v fall_v from_o that_o profession_n of_o christ_n deny_v he_o and_o walk_v altogether_o contrary_a to_o he_o but_o none_o of_o these_o scripture_n nor_o any_o other_o do_v teach_v that_o any_o who_o be_v christ_n his_o redeem_v one_o receive_v he_o or_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v at_o any_o time_n no_o not_o one_o of_o they_o thus_o deny_v he_o or_o be_v deny_v by_o he_o i_o have_v be_v the_o long_o upon_o this_o place_n of_o peter_n compare_v it_o with_o other_o scripture_n especial_o that_o of_o judas_n which_o be_v the_o very_a same_o with_o it_o both_o that_o i_o may_v declare_v what_o be_v the_o

clear_v this_o place_n of_o peter_n i_o shall_v now_o proceed_v to_o the_o other_o two_o scripture_n to_o wit_n mat._n 21.42_o john_n 1.11_o which_o they_o allege_v to_o prove_v that_o some_o for_o

and_o profession_n be_v much_o for_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o his_o worship_n do_v in_o the_o account_n of_o god_n and_o according_o to_o the_o judnement_n of_o the_o scripture_n no_o less_o than_o reject_v or_o oppose_v the_o lord_n christ_n and_o as_o for_o that_o place_n of_o john_n 1.11_o where_o it_o be_v say_v he_o come_v unto_o his_o own_o and_o his_o own_o receive_v he_o not_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v answer_v that_o those_o who_o be_v here_o call_v christ_n own_o be_v the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n who_o be_v call_v his_o own_o as_o concern_v the_o flesh_n because_o he_o be_v
