A81815	The fulness and freeness of Gods grace in Jesus Christ, declared in two general points: first, that personal election is no ground of the saints perseverance in the grace of God by Jesus Christ. Secondly, in what sense the scriptures speake the saints perseverance in that grace. The third part. / By Francis Duke.; Fulnesse and freenesse of Gods grace in Jesus Christ.

in_o this_o case_n in_o some_o sort_n as_o it_o be_v with_o seed_n in_o nature_n production_n of_o body_n which_o in_o one_o respect_n be_v perishable_a for_o all_o humane_a body_n return_v to_o the_o

fall_v be_v affirm_v by_o our_o lord_n himself_o in_o his_o exposition_n of_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o seed_n for_o when_o he_o have_v say_v the_o seed_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n thereupon_o he_o explain_v its_o various_a effect_n in_o the_o mind_n of_o good_a and_o bad_a man_n and_o thereupon_o to_o his_o apostle_n he_o say_v 18._o luk._n 8._o from_o 4._o to_o 18._o take_v heed_n

into_o according_a as_o they_o do_v improve_v their_o talon_n either_o to_o come_v to_o christ_n before_o faith_n as_o be_v describe_v or_o after_o faith_n as_o you_o have_v it_o here_o our_o lord_n say_v unto_o such_o as_o well_o as_o unto_o other_o take_v heed_n how_o you_o hear_v and_o this_o be_v a_o general_a rule_n except_o in_o case_n extraordinary_a such_o be_v that_o in_o the_o 10._o verse_n unto_o you_o it_o be_v give_v to_o understand_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o kingdom_n etc._n etc._n and_o thus_o our_o lord_n when_o he_o ascend_v he_o give_v gift_n unto_o man_n some_o to_o be_v apostle_n etc._n etc._n not_o for_o their_o own_o sake_n but_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o his_o father_n final_a end_n to_o his_o glory_n in_o carry_v on_o the_o aforesaid_a particular_a branch_n against_o the_o design_n of_o the_o apostate_n angel_n what_o this_o particular_a branch_n be_v be_v amplify_v in_o my_o second_o treatise_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v give_v to_o the_o apostle_n but_o not_o to_o other_o to_o understand_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o kingdom_n clear_o and_o infallible_o and_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o this_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o apostle_n for_o the_o first_o verse_n of_o the_o chapter_n say_v the_o twelve_o be_v with_o he_o and_o in_o the_o 9th_o verse_n they_o put_v a_o question_n which_o draw_v this_o answer_n from_o he_o in_o the_o 10._o verse_n therefore_o this_o make_v nothing_o against_o the_o aforesaid_a ordinary_a rule_n here_o we_o must_v remember_v two_o thing_n as_o to_o the_o perseverance_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o the_o foresay_a stability_n that_o be_v they_o stand_v in_o relation_n to_o a_o twofold_a contingency_n until_o they_o have_v arrive_v to_o that_o stability_n not_o to_o fall_v the_o first_o be_v the_o tenor_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o rule_n of_o mercy_n and_o justice_n according_a to_o which_o if_o they_o do_v not_o exercise_v their_o grace_n they_o may_v fall_v away_o total_o but_o if_o they_o do_v they_o may_v go_v on_o from_o strength_n to_o strength_n in_o zion_n or_o be_v establish_v as_o be_v prove_v and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o contingency_n and_o the_o ground_n why_o the_o lord_n in_o this_o case_n have_v put_v all_o mankind_n and_o the_o saint_n thus_o upon_o contingency_n be_v it_o suit_v with_o his_o final_a end_n for_o which_o he_o make_v both_o man_n and_o angel_n as_o former_o be_v prove_v the_o second_o contingency_n be_v the_o natural_a liberty_n of_o the_o will_n purposely_o so_o create_v by_o god_n and_o that_o also_o with_o respect_n to_o his_o final_a end_n so_o any_o man_n let_v he_o be_v what_o he_o will_v or_o can_v be_v christ_n except_v or_o any_o saint_n not_o yet_o attain_v to_o that_o stability_n may_v be_v a_o vessel_n of_o honour_n or_o dishonour_n to_o eternity_n but_o to_o clear_v this_o point_n concern_v the_o will_n of_o man_n we_o must_v always_o consider_v it_o under_o three_o distinction_n the_o first_o be_v its_o natural_a liberty_n and_o that_o be_v it_o choose_v or_o refuse_v all_o object_n or_o thing_n present_v to_o it_o as_o it_o like_v or_o dislike_v they_o and_o this_o remain_v in_o good_a and_o bad_a man_n on_o earth_n and_o also_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o hell_n because_o it_o be_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n the_o second_o distinction_n be_v the_o natural_a property_n of_o man_n will_n which_o be_v this_o to_o look_v to_o good_a either_o as_o it_o appear_v good_a or_o as_o it_o be_v indeed_o the_o very_a true_a good_a and_o as_o the_o eye_n do_v natural_o follow_v light_n so_o this_o natural_a property_n of_o man_n will_n do_v follow_v good_a according_a as_o it_o apprehend_v it_o to_o be_v so_o this_o also_o be_v natural_a to_o the_o very_a essence_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o neither_o of_o these_o can_v be_v lose_v but_o by_o annihilation_n of_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n which_o god_n will_v never_o annihilate_v because_o it_o will_v make_v void_a his_o final_a end_n
