A84741 Truths vindication of election, and reprobation Wherein is shewed, Christ the cause of election; sin the cause of reprobation. The iustice of God is likewise cleared from that which is layd upon him by many; (namely) that some shall one day be damned for unbelief, and yet he never gave a Christ for them to beleeve in. Most of the strongest objections that scriptures or reason can make, answered. By William Fouler minister of the gospel at Ingworth in Norffolk. Fowler, William, minister of Ingworth, Norfolk. 1652 (1652) Wing F1639; Thomason E1376_4; ESTC R209255 16,436 44

they_o will_v believe_v and_o repent_v but_o they_o therefore_o believe_v and_o repent_v because_o he_o choose_v they_o indeed_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o salvation_n sin_n the_o cause_n of_o
