according_a to_o the_o scripture_n that_o god_n be_v not_o willing_a that_o any_o shall_v perish_v but_o that_o all_o shall_v come_v to_o repentance_n 2_o pet._n 3.9_o that_o he_o will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o be_v save_v and_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n 1_o tim._n 2.4_o that_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v give_v to_o every_o man_n to_o profit_v withal_o 1_o cor._n 12.7_o and_o that_o by_o the_o improvement_n of_o this_o their_o talon_n they_o may_v make_v themselves_o fit_a to_o enter_v into_o their_o master_n joy_n it_o be_v evident_a i_o say_v that_o such_o doctrine_n as_o these_o do_v noways_o tend_v to_o god_n dishonour_n nor_o be_v they_o injurious_a to_o the_o true_a interest_n of_o religion_n nor_o do_v they_o any_o way_n endanger_v the_o good_a of_o soul_n nor_o can_v any_o thing_n be_v more_o certain_a than_o this_o that_o these_o and_o none_o but_o these_o doctrine_n can_v yield_v true_a comfort_n to_o they_o that_o on_o the_o account_n of_o sin_n be_v in_o disconsolation_n because_o they_o everywhere_o and_o always_o declare_v it_o to_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o if_o the_o wicked_a will_v turn_v away_o from_o hsi_fw-fr wickedness_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v and_o do_v that_o which_o be_v lawful_a and_o right_a he_o shall_v save_v his_o soul_n alive_a all_o his_o transgression_n than_o he_o have_v commit_v they_o shall_v not_o be_v mention_v unto_o he_o in_o his_o righteousness_n that_o he_o have_v do_v he_o shall_v live_v ezek._n 18.21_o to_o 28._o be_v the_o reprobatarian_n doctrine_n true_a than_o all_o that_o profess_v it_o be_v bind_v to_o live_v up_o to_o those_o payticulars_n that_o be_v natural_o consequent_a thereupon_o and_o than_o it_o must_v sollow_v of_o course_n that_o if_o all_o the_o action_n of_o man_n be_v fore-determine_a by_o god_n decree_n and_o sin_n be_v necessitate_v in_o some_o as_o well_o as_o virtue_n be_v in_o other_o that_o then_o wickedness_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o more_o criminal_a in_o a_o reprobate_n than_o thirst_n or_o hunger_n for_o what_o be_v unavoidable_a may_v be_v a_o man_n infelicity_n in_o some_o case_n but_o not_o his_o sin_n for_o can_v it_o be_v a_o crime_n in_o any_o one_o to_o do_v that_o which_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n he_o shall_v do_v if_o god_n have_v decree_v from_o eternity_n that_o some_o man_n shall_v sin_v unavoidable_o that_o so_o his_o design_n of_o reprobate_v they_o may_v not_o prove_v uneffectual_a then_o those_o that_o act_n evil_a thing_n be_v not_o to_o be_v charge_v with_o disobedience_n because_o they_o act_n some_o say_v as_o god_n design_n they_o shall_v act_v and_o by_o consequence_n according_a to_o these_o notion_n they_o be_v entire_o obedient_a to_o the_o will_n of_o their_o maker_n wherefore_o those_o that_o pretend_v to_o believe_v these_o doctrine_n ought_v not_o to_o blame_v and_o censure_n and_o punish_v they_o for_o wickedness_n but_o say_v rather_o that_o since_o god_n have_v decree_v from_o eternity_n whatsoever_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v in_o time_n that_o these_o can_v avoid_v so_o do_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o to_o rest_v satisfy_v under_o the_o unavoidable_a execution_n of_o the_o divine_a decree_n of_o god_n now_o thus_o to_o do_v will_v be_v for_o man_n to_o live_v up_o to_o the_o tenure_n of_o those_o reprobatarian_n doctrine_n of_o eternal_a predestination_n which_o they_o profess_v to_o believe_v but_o yet_o we_o do_v see_v this_o do_v which_o show_v that_o these_o dictate_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o error_n be_v overpower_v by_o those_o natural_a notion_n of_o truth_n implant_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o predestinarian_o experience_n show_v that_o they_o all_o daily_a cry_n out_o against_o the_o wickedness_n of_o mankind_n as_o a_o thing_n unsufferable_a among_o humane_a being_n and_o they_o do_v all_o that_o lie_v in_o their_o power_n to_o bring_v those_o to_o punishment_n who_o do_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v destructive_a to_o the_o general_a or_o common_a good_a of_o man_n which_o sufficient_o demonstrate_v that_o the_o predestinarian_a faith_n which_o they_o outward_o profess_v be_v undoubted_o contrary_a to_o that_o divine_a law_n which_o god_n by_o nature_n have_v write_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n these_o man_n by_o their_o action_n do_v plain_o confute_v the_o faith_n which_o they_o profess_v for_o by_o this_o they_o declare_v unto_o the_o world_n that_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o man_n be_v wicked_a by_o necessity_n from_o god_n for_o than_o it_o will_v be_v inhuman_a to_o punish_v they_o but_o this_o no_o man_n believe_v for_o they_o as_o well_o as_o we_o be_v very_o persuade_v that_o the_o punishment_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v just_a and_o necessary_a that_o so_o by_o their_o example_n other_o may_v be_v deter_v from_o commit_v the_o like_a crime_n which_o show_v that_o all_o man_n do_v natural_o believe_v that_o sin_n may_v be_v avoid_v and_o if_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o damnation_n may_v be_v avoid_v than_o damnation_n which_o be_v only_o the_o effect_n of_o sin_n may_v be_v avoid_v too_o which_o prove_v that_o the_o predestinarian_a notion_n of_o reprobation_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o natural_a as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o reveal_v law_n of_o god_n and_o for_o that_o reason_n ought_v to_o be_v reject_v by_o all_o man_n especial_o by_o they_o who_o business_n it_o be_v to_o persuade_v all_o man_n to_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n which_o they_o can_v never_o do_v unless_o htey_n declare_v that_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o all_o to_o repent_v of_o election_n the_o predestinarian_o tell_v we_o that_o god_n by_o a_o eternal_a decree_n have_v elect_v or_o choose_v to_o make_v some_o particular_a person_n happy_a in_o a_o life_n eternal_a and_o that_o none_o shall_v be_v save_v but_o those_o who_o he_o have_v thus_o predestinate_v unto_o glory_n in_o which_o predestination_n they_o say_v no_o respect_n be_v have_v to_o any_o act_n of_o obedience_n to_o be_v perform_v on_o man_n part_n for_o according_a to_o these_o man_n obedience_n be_v only_o the_o fruit_n of_o their_o election_n or_o what_o necessary_o do_v follow_v thereupon_o and_o not_o the_o mean_n which_o make_v man_n fit_a for_o election_n or_o choice_n of_o god_n but_o this_o be_v a_o error_n because_o contrary_a to_o plain_a scripture_n or_o the_o reveal_v law_n of_o our_o maker_n for_o god_n have_v therein_o full_o assure_v we_o that_o our_o be_v in_o favour_n with_o he_o
