to_o bring_v we_o to_o that_o life_n which_o be_v above_o nature_n therefore_o sometime_o god_n choose_v be_v express_v by_o love_v i_o have_v love_v jacob_n and_o hate_v esau_n that_o be_v not_o

god_n have_v love_v every_o reasonable_a creature_n to_o life_n there_o have_v be_v love_n to_o all_o but_o election_n of_o none_o he_o who_o take_v all_o make_v no_o choice_n of_o any_o therefore_o

thing_n even_o as_o a_o man_n know_v all_o his_o good_n and_o substance_n but_o his_o wife_n and_o child_n after_o a_o special_a manner_n nevertheless_o it_o may_v well_o note_v that_o knowledge_n which_o be_v in_o order_n to_o this_o action_n of_o god_n choose_v whether_o go_v before_o it_o or_o come_v after_o it_o if_o we_o have_v choose_v any_o to_o any_o thing_n we_o know_v who_o we_o have_v choose_v and_o if_o we_o be_v about_o to_o choose_v any_o we_o know_v who_o we_o be_v about_o to_o choose_v so_o god_n do_v not_o only_o know_v who_o he_o have_v choose_v which_o knowledge_n

do_v go_v before_o to_o our_o understanding_n and_o this_o i_o think_v the_o meaning_n of_o foreknowledge_n in_o that_o place_n such_o who_o he_o do_v foreknow_v to_o be_v the_o person_n who_o he_o

this_o way_n we_o will_v thank_v man_n even_o for_o the_o good_a meaning_n and_o purpose_n we_o perceive_v they_o to_o have_v towards_o we_o though_o they_o have_v do_v nothing_o by_o us._n when_o

people_n how_o shall_v we_o rejoice_v in_o spirit_n to_o think_v that_o god_n have_v elect_v we_o to_o a_o eternal_a kingdom_n from_o which_o many_o no_o way_n our_o inferior_n be_v reject_v if_o any_o show_v we_o common_a countenance_n we_o do_v not_o so_o much_o respect_v it_o but_o if_o they_o admit_v we_o into_o such_o peculiar_a favour_n as_o they_o will_v not_o communicate_v with_o any_o

have_v true_a faith_n and_o holiness_n as_o we_o may_v know_v faith_n so_o we_o may_v know_v election_n if_o we_o see_v in_o judgement_n of_o charity_n that_o any_o have_v a_o faith_n unfeigned_a and_o true_a endeavour_n of_o holiness_n we_o may_v in_o judgement_n of_o charity_n say_v that_o such_o be_v elect_v thus_o saint_n peter_n and_o john_n may_v give_v the_o name_n of_o elect_n to_o the_o member_n of_o the_o visible_a church_n to_o who_o they_o write_v if_o we_o know_v by_o experimental_a certainty_n or_o by_o faith_n that_o any_o have_v true_a belief_n and_o holiness_n we_o do_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n certain_o know_v that_o we_o or_o they_o be_v elect_v thus_o we_o may_v by_o faith_n know_v that_o in_o every_o true_a visible_a church_n there_o be_v some_o elect_v of_o god_n because_o the_o word_n teach_v that_o where_o god_n give_v his_o word_n there_o be_v some_o saint_n who_o he_o will_v gather_v and_o edify_v some_o ground_n good_a where_o he_o send_v his_o seedesman_n thus_o we_o may_v know_v certain_o ourselves_o elect_v because_o we_o may_v by_o certain_a experience_n know_v ourselves_o to_o have_v faith_n if_o i_o see_v one_o put_v into_o the_o

have_v the_o place_n so_o when_o god_n now_o have_v by_o faith_n and_o sanctification_n take_v one_o out_o of_o this_o world_n we_o may_v know_v that_o he_o be_v choose_v forth_o of_o the_o world_n unto_o life_n thing_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v when_o now_o their_o be_v be_v make_v manifest_a while_o a_o babe_n be_v in_o the_o womb_n we_o know_v not_o what_o be_v there_o conceive_a but_o when_o we_o see_v a_o man-child_n bear_v than_o we_o know_v that_o such_o a_o one_o be_v conceive_v so_o when_o the_o babe_n be_v bear_v when_o the_o be_v of_o faith_n &_o holiness_n be_v apparent_a we_o may_v say_v that_o such_o a_o person_n before_o all_o world_n be_v conceive_v in_o the_o womb_n of_o god_n secret_a election_n we_o may_v know_v a_o will_n secret_a three_o way_n 1._o if_o a_o

now_o we_o see_v he_o execute_v so_o here_o god_n may_v speak_v by_o extraordinary_a revelation_n which_o have_v be_v the_o privilege_n of_o some_o few_o 2._o god_n may_v make_v his_o will_n know_v

we_o have_v obtain_v this_o or_o that_o we_o may_v cease_v to_o beg_v any_o long_a as_o we_o do_v before_o even_o as_o the_o body_n rest_v when_o it_o be_v now_o come_v to_o the_o place_n to_o which_o

nor_o will_v not_o be_v entreat_v for_o the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o people_n he_o do_v desist_v though_o he_o do_v well_o before_o in_o ask_v of_o it_o for_o that_o reveal_v will_n and_o not_o the_o secret_a be_v that_o to_o which_o our_o action_n must_v be_v conform_v though_o here_o be_v something_o extraordinary_a in_o these_o example_n yet_o god_n do_v often_o let_v his_o child_n see_v that_o

as_o before_o for_o thing_n without_o sin_n when_o now_o god_n have_v as_o it_o be_v speak_v within_o our_o spirit_n that_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o thing_n we_o have_v ask_v and_o bid_v our_o soul_n after_o a_o sort_n return_v to_o rest_v for_o from_o whence_o we_o find_v god_n thus_o good_a unto_o we_o we_o follow_v not_o with_o our_o accustom_a fervency_n though_o execution_n delay_v may_v cause_v we_o sometime_o seek_v the_o seasonable_a performance_n of_o it_o the_o soul_n be_v more_o in_o joyful_a expectance_n less_o than_o before_o in_o careful_a petition_n the_o cease_v therefore_o
