spirit_n of_o regeneration_n upon_o all_o and_o every_o one_o throughout_o the_o world_n he_o be_v the_o author_n of_o sin_n not_o only_a when_o he_o move_v they_o to_o such_o act_n which_o be_v

that_o he_o be_v one_o of_o those_o absolute_a reprobate_n because_o those_o be_v more_o absolute_a reprobate_n even_o a_o hundred_o for_o one_o then_o absolute_a choose_v of_o we_o and_o a_o man_n

they_o have_v no_o difference_n as_o touch_v their_o absoluteness_n whereas_o the_o denial_n of_o grace_n together_o with_o the_o inflict_v of_o damnation_n which_o be_v the_o thing_n will_v by_o reprobation_n which_o according_o be_v distinguish_v into_o roprobation_n from_o grace_n &_o reprobation_n from_o glory_n or_o unto_o damnation_n be_v so_o different_a that_o god_n do_v decree_n indeed_o the_o absoluteness_n of_o the_o one_o but_o he_o do_v not_o at_o all_o decree_n the_o absoluteness_n of_o the_o other_o but_o mere_o the_o conditional_a nature_n thereof_o for_o grace_v he_o deny_v and_o purpose_v to_o deny_v absolute_o for_o the_o apostle_n plain_o profess_v that_o as_o god_n have_v mercy_n on_o who_o he_o will_v rome_n 9_o 18._o by_o bring_v they_o unto_o faith_n rom._n 11._o 30._o so_o he_o harden_v who_o he_o will_v by_o deny_v faith_n unto_o they_o but_o as_o for_o glory_n and_o damnation_n like_v as_o god_n do_v not_o absolute_o so_o neither_o do_v he_o decree_v absolute_o to_o deny_v the_o one_o &_o inflict_v the_o other_o but_o only_o conditional_o to_o wit_n in_o case_n of_o final_a perseverance_n in_o sin_n therefore_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o understand_v he_o of_o reprobation_n from_o grace_n as_o often_o as_o he_o speak_v of_o absolute_a reprobation_n &_o consequent_o his_o meaning_n must_v be_v that_o god_n do_v not_o deny_v grace_n
