in_o that_o truth_n and_o point_n out_o unto_o they_o every_o part_n of_o that_o path_n which_o lead_v unto_o everlasting_a life_n yet_o let_v we_o even_o herein_o also_o behold_v and_o admire_v the_o wisdom_n and_o the_o mercy_n of_o our_o most_o gracious_a god_n that_o howsoever_o those_o thing_n for_o the_o continual_a exercise_n of_o god_n child_n be_v wrap_v up_o in_o sundry_a difficulty_n so_o that_o a_o elephant_n may_v swim_v therein_o yet_o withal_o they_o be_v so_o temper_v by_o god_n spirit_n and_o fit_v for_o our_o capacity_n that_o neither_o this_o nor_o any_o one_o point_n of_o all_o our_o faith_n be_v without_o such_o evident_a &_o clear_a proof_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n as_o that_o for_o the_o most_o a_o lamb_n may_v wade_v in_o they_o and_o for_o they_o all_o such_o as_o best_a serve_v for_o the_o instruct_n of_o god_n people_n and_o the_o full_a satisfy_n of_o any_o christian_a and_o believe_v soul_n for_o thy_o word_n 105_o be_v a_o light_n unto_o our_o foot_n and_o a_o lantern_n unto_o our_o step_n it_o give_v 7._o wisdom_n and_o understanding_n even_o unto_o the_o simple_a and_o it_o be_v true_o say_v by_o saint_n austen_n 9_o that_o whatsoever_o belong_v either_o to_o our_o faith_n or_o good_a life_n that_o be_v plain_o set_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n of_o god_n wherefore_o they_o which_o affray_n the_o people_n of_o god_n with_o these_o difficulty_n do_v no_o otherwise_o then_o those_o messenger_n and_o spyer_v which_o moses_n send_v to_o see_v the_o land_n of_o canaan_n sure_o say_v 32._o they_o the_o land_n flow_v with_o milk_n and_o honey_n but_o the_o people_n be_v strong_a that_o dwell_v in_o the_o land_n they_o be_v giant_n and_o the_o son_n of_o anak_n and_o the_o city_n be_v wall_v and_o exceed_v great_a we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o go_v up_o against_o they_o for_o they_o be_v strong_a than_o we_o so_o they_o bring_v a_o evil_a report_n of_o the_o land_n cause_v the_o people_n to_o be_v fainthearted_a and_o murmur_v against_o the_o lord_n so_o these_o man_n have_v like_o diligent_a spy_n consider_v and_o view_v every_o part_n of_o this_o doctrine_n know_v right_o well_o that_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n of_o exceed_a comfort_n and_o that_o it_o flow_v with_o milk_n and_o honey_n but_o they_o bring_v a_o evil_a report_n upon_o it_o and_o upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n when_o they_o affray_v god_n people_n from_o enter_v hereunto_o with_o the_o greatness_n of_o those_o difficulty_n as_o it_o be_v with_o so_o many_o giant_n and_o son_n of_o anak_n which_o they_o have_v spy_v and_o see_v herein_o let_v not_o we_o with_o those_o evil_a spy_n provoke_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n by_o our_o distrust_n &_o diffidence_n but_o with_o caleb_n &_o joshua_n man_n in_o this_o action_n high_o renown_v of_o

and_o possess_v the_o land_n for_o undoubted_o we_o shall_v overcome_v it_o let_v we_o then_o in_o the_o name_n and_o fear_n of_o god_n enter_v into_o this_o doctrine_n be_v guide_v though_o not_o with_o caleb_n and_o joshua_n yet_o with_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n and_o even_o lead_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n who_o all_o by_o their_o teach_n and_o preach_v of_o this_o doctrine_n have_v chalk_v out_o the_o way_n unto_o we_o how_o we_o may_v enter_v into_o it_o and_o take_v full_a possession_n of_o those_o joy_n and_o comfort_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o knowledge_n and_o meditation_n thereof_o in_o handle_v this_o doctrine_n of_o election_n i_o commend_v to_o your_o godly_a consideration_n these_o three_o point_n out_o of_o these_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n the_o first_o our_o election_n itself_o the_o second_o the_o certainty_n and_o assurance_n of_o our_o election_n both_o of_o they_o set_v down_o in_o these_o word_n give_v all_o diligence_n to_o make_v your_o election_n sure_a the_o three_o the_o mean_n of_o this_o assurance_n one_o of_o which_o be_v sanctity_n and_o holiness_n of_o life_n the_o apostle_n express_v in_o these_o word_n for_o if_o you_o do_v these_o thing_n you_o shall_v never_o fall_v concern_v election_n itself_o two_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v first_o the_o party_n who_o be_v elect_v second_o the_o cause_n of_o their_o election_n touch_v the_o party_n elect_v i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o stay_v long_o in_o refute_v that_o no_o less_o impious_a then_o senseless_a opinion_n of_o some_o who_o teach_v vocat_fw-la that_o god_n election_n before_o the_o world_n be_v general_a to_o all_o man_n so_o that_o every_o one_o be_v alike_o choose_v by_o he_o unto_o eternal_a life_n which_o conceit_n of_o they_o as_o it_o be_v direct_o control_v by_o the_o express_a word_n of_o the_o scripture_n wherein_o be_v mention_n of_o some_o who_o be_v vessel_n 22._o of_o wrath_n prepare_v to_o destruction_n and_o as_o saint_n jude_n 4._o say_v ordain_v to_o condemnation_n so_o be_v it_o repugnant_a even_o to_o common_a sense_n and_o reason_n for_o who_o do_v not_o know_v that_o to_o elect_v or_o choose_v imply_v a_o reject_v and_o refuse_v of_o some_o other_o this_o very_a word_n of_o election_n signify_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o separate_n and_o cull_v out_o of_o some_o from_o the_o rest_n as_o our_o saviour_n say_v 19_o of_o his_o disciple_n that_o he_o choose_v they_o out_o of_o the_o world_n see_v then_o it_o be_v most_o ●leere_a that_o some_o be_v choose_v 13._o and_o elect_v by_o god_n unto_o salvation_n certain_a it_o be_v that_o god_n separate_v they_o for_o a_o peculiar_a people_n unto_o himself_o and_o pick_v they_o out_o from_o the_o rest_n which_o he_o refuse_v and_o leave_v in_o their_o sin_n to_o be_v lead_v by_o their_o own_o lust_n into_o that_o destruction_n which_o be_v ordain_v for_o they_o now_o as_o error_n never_o want_v some_o colour_n and_o show_v of_o truth_n so_o these_o man_n to_o maintain_v this_o fancy_n allege_v 15._o the_o word_n of_o saint_n paul_n rom._n 8._o 29._o where_o he_o say_v that_o who_o god_n know_v before_o they_o also_o be_v do_v predestinate_a to_o be_v make_v like_o to_o his_o son_n see_v th●n_o say_v they_o god_n know_v all_o man_n without_o exception_n before_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o he_o do_v also_o predestinate_a and_o elect_v they_o all_o unto_o eternal_a life_n in_o which_o reason_n as_o if_o it_o be_v insoluble_a they_o boast_v and_o triumph_v but_o without_o all_o truth_n and_o substance_n of_o reason_n for_o they_o may_v easy_o have_v observe_v a_o double_a 8._o knowledge_n of_o god_n mention_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n the_o one_o of_o behold_v and_o see_v only_o which_o be_v a_o knowledge_n of_o apprehension_n of_o which_o the_o apostle_n say_v heb._n 4._o 13._o that_o every_o creature_n be_v manifest_a in_o his_o ●ight_n and_o all_o thing_n be_v naked_a and_o open_a to_o his_o eye_n the_o other_o be_v a_o knowledge_n of_o love_v and_o like_n which_o the_o schoolman_n right_o term_v a_o knowledge_n of_o approbation_n of_o which_o it_o be_v say_v psal._n 1._o 6._o the_o lord_n know_v the_o way_n of_o the_o righteous_a not_o only_o the_o see_v and_o behold_v they_o for_o so_o he_o do_v know_v the_o way_n of_o the_o wicked_a also_o but_o he_o know_v the_o way_n of_o the_o righteous_a by_o love_v allow_a and_o approve_v their_o way_n in_o which_o sort_n he_o never_o know_v the_o way_n of_o any_o wicked_a man_n see_v both_o himself_o and_o his_o way_n be_v a_o abomination_n unto_o god_n now_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o all_o man_n even_o the_o reprobate_n be_v foreknow_v of_o god_n by_o his_o former_a kind_n of_o knowledge_n for_o all_o thing_n be_v manifest_a and_o naked_a before_o his_o eye_n but_o this_o knowledge_n of_o apprehension_n can_v not_o possible_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 8._o to_o the_o roman_n for_o who_o god_n know_v in_o that_o place_n they_o he_o both_o justify_v in_o this_o and_o glorifi_v in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v as_o the_o apostle_n express_o witness_v in_o the_o same_o place_n now_o see_v he_o do_v not_o justify_v and_o glorify_v all_o but_o will_v say_v to_o some_o go_v into_o everlasting_a fire_n who_o shall_v have_v their_o portion_n in_o that_o lake_n which_o burn_v with_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n it_o remain_v evident_a that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v not_o of_o that_o former_a knowledge_n of_o apprehension_n but_o of_o the_o late_a of_o approbation_n by_o which_o i_o may_v true_o say_v unto_o you_o that_o god_n never_o know_v any_o reprobate_n or_o ungodly_a person_n our_o saviour_n teach_v in_o plain_a term_n the_o
