A89553	A short treatise discovering the prevailing excellency of the death of Christ with the Father, by way of opposition to that doctrine, that Christ dyed alike for all. Declaring in whom only the saints happinesse doth consist by meanes of this their purchased redemption: also their freedome from the guilt and curse of the Law. / Written for the satisfaction of some, if it may be.

fold_v love_n also_o one_o outward_a in_o respect_n of_o that_o special_a love_n which_o set_v all_o that_o power_n and_o wisdom_n that_o be_v in_o god_n a-work_o towards_o the_o high_a of_o that_o
