A86420	Fourteen queries and ten absurdities about the extent of Christ's death, the power of the creatures, the justice of God in condemning some, and saving others, presented by a free-willer to the Church of Christ at Newcastle, and answered by Paul Hobson a member of the said Church. In which answer is discovered, the extent of Christs death, the nature and truth of election, the condition of the creature both before and after conversion, &c. Published in tenderness of love for the good of all, especially for the Churches of Christ.	Hobson, Paul.	1655 (1655)	Wing H2273; Thomason E1492_4; ESTC R208520	40,720	127

which_o i_o shall_v say_v little_a it_o be_v so_o clear_a only_o refer_v you_o to_o the_o scripture_n which_o declare_v 1._o god_n will_v so_o present_a or_o declare_v christ_n to_o all_o according_a

to_o obj._n it_o be_v clear_a from_o what_o you_o have_v say_v that_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v present_v to_o all_o and_o that_o he_o be_v enjoy_v by_o none_o but_o through_o believe_v and_o you_o say_v the_o power_n of_o believe_v be_v sole_o of_o god_n and_o not_o by_o any_o improvement_n of_o the_o ability_n of_o nature_n before_o the_o new_a birth_n if_o so_o how_o can_v it_o be_v just_a with_o god_n to_o condemn_v they_o that_o do_v not_o believe_v see_v the_o power_n be_v not_o of_o they_o but_o in_o god_n answer_n i_o judge_v this_o very_a mistake_n to_o be_v a_o chief_a ground_n of_o your_o stumble_n and_o therefore_o for_o the_o clear_n up_o of_o that_o according_a to_o the_o three_o particular_a in_o my_o writing_n wherein_o i_o promise_v to_o clear_v up_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n in_o this_o case_n i_o shall_v desire_v you_o not_o to_o stand_v upon_o curiosity_n of_o word_n but_o in_o singleness_n of_o heart_n own_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o consider_v with_o i_o these_o particular_n follow_v 1._o that_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v present_v to_o all_o that_o be_v not_o disputable_a that_o faith_n be_v the_o way_n or_o condition_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o entertertain_v christ_n and_o salvation_n by_o christ_n that_o be_v clear_a 2._o that_o this_o faith_n thus_o consider_v be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o creature_n to_o perform_v by_o its_o ability_n from_o god_n authority_n in_o a_o common_a sense_n but_o it_o be_v a_o peculiar_a gift_n in_o a_o gospel_n sense_n by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n give_v to_o some_o and_o not_o to_o all_o
