mean_n to_o they_o that_o there_o by_o they_o may_v be_v without_o excuse_n at_o the_o last_o day_n it_o be_v a_o very_a pretty_a assertion_n as_o though_o a_o man_n shall_v appoint_v his_o servant_n to_o labour_v in_o his_o vineyard_n it_o god_n do_v not_o command_v man_n to_o do_v that_o which_o he_o have_v not_o give_v they_o power_n to_o do_v and_o then_o punish_v they_o for_o not_o do_v of_o

his_o servant_n must_v be_v leave_v without_o excuse_n such_o a_o kind_n of_o model_n be_v your_o discourse_n concern_v god_n and_o the_o creature_n that_o be_v god_n command_v man_n to_o labour_n in_o his_o vinyard_n and_o say_v if_o they_o will_v not_o he_o will_v punish_v they_o and_o yet_o never_o mean_v they_o shall_v come_v there_o but_o have_v appoint_v they_o for_o damnation_n before_o they_o be_v bear_v and_o yet_o he_o will_v hare_n the_o creature_n think_v themselves_o in_o a_o fault_n because_o they_o do_v not_o do_v that_o which_o god_n never_o give_v they_o ability_n to_o do_v nor_o never_o mean_v they_o shall_v do_v so_o that_o upon_o your_o account_n god_n command_v man_n upon_o pain_n of_o damnation_n to_o do_v that_o which_o they_o be_v altogether_o unable_a to_o do_v and_o also_o what_o he_o never_o mean_v they_o shall_v do_v but_o happy_o you_o may_v say_v object_n that_o god_n do_v command_v man_n to_o do_v that_o which_o he_o never_o mean_v they_o shall_v do_v for_o he_o command_v abraham_n to_o offer_v up_o isaac_n for_o a_o burn_a offering_n and_o yet_o never_o mean_v he_o shall_v slay_v he_o answ_n this_o be_v not_o to_o your_o purpose_n and_o first_o because_o the_o lord_n do_v declare_v it_o be_v but_o to_o try_v abraham_n the_o case_n be_v not_o we_o in_o this_o our_o contreversie_n for_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n do_v command_v man_n to_o repent_v and_o believe_v only_o to_o try_v they_o as_o it_o be_v say_v he_o do_v bid_v abraham_n offer_v his_o son_n up_o to_o try_v he_o than_o there_o be_v some_o colour_n for_o what_o you_o say_v but_o one_o be_v a_o public_a command_n to_o all_o man_n general_o and_o indefinite_o 22.1_o gen._n 22.1_o and_o the_o other_o a_o particular_a command_n to_o one_o person_n and_o that_o to_o try_v he_o as_o say_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n i_o may_v say_v more_o to_o this_o objection_n but_o it_o reach_v not_o our_o case_n for_o as_o we_o say_v although_o a_o general_n include_v or_o comprehend_v particular_n represent_v the_o thing_n represent_v be_v sometime_o call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o thing_n represent_v yet_o every_o particular_a do_v not_o include_v a_o general_a therefore_o this_o instance_n not_o worth_a speak_v to_o and_o yet_o i_o may_v say_v that_o in_o cod_n account_n he_o be_v real_o offer_v up_o in_o a_o burn_a offering_n for_o god_n give_v some_o what_o in_o his_o room_n to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n when_o he_o see_v abraham_n willingness_n to_o obey_v his_o voice_n and_o it_o may_v be_v as_o well_o call_v isaac_n as_o the_o

do_v represent_v isaac_n sacrifice_v and_o so_o may_v bear_v the_o name_n there_o be_v several_a instance_n that_o may_v be_v further_o to_o the_o answer_n of_o this_o but_o as_o i_o study_v brevity_n so_o it_o be_v not_o worth_a my_o pain_n and_o therefore_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o next_o thing_n which_o be_v you_o say_v that_o all_o though_o god_n will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o be_v save_v the_o

the_o rest_n of_o what_o you_o have_v say_v and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v brief_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v every_o person_n that_o god_n will_v have_v save_v the_o argument_n be_v if_o god_n will_v not_o have_v his_o minister_n preach_v a_o lie_n in_o his_o name_n to_o any_o man_n and_o yet_o must_v preach_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o god_n love_v to_o all_o man_n through_o christ_n than_o

every_o man_n through_o christ_n ergo_fw-la god_n will_v have_v every_o man_n to_o be_v save_v to_o prove_v this_o argument_n first_o that_o he_o will_v have_v his_o minister_n preach_v truth_n and_o not_o a_o lie_n i_o suppose_v none_o will_v deny_v and_o second_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o gospel_n must_v be_v preach_v to_o every_o creature_n namely_o the_o creature_n man_n and_o i_o also_o be_o persuade_v that_o no_o man_n will_v deny_v the_o gospel_n to_o be_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o god_n love_v in_o christ_n to_o wit_n god_n reconcile_v to_o sinner_n not_o impute_v their_o sin_n now_o if_o god_n do_v not_o intend_v to_o save_v all_o man_n then_o in_o command_v the_o gospel_n to_o be_v preach_v to_o every_o man_n command_v a_o lie_n to_o be_v preach_v to_o the_o great_a part_n of_o man_n the_o which_o be_v blasphemy_n to_o say_v if_o god_n will_v have_v all_o save_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o and_o christ_n die_v for_o every_o man_n than_o god_n will_v have_v every_o man_n to_o be_v save_v but_o god_n will_v have_v all_o save_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o and_o christ_n die_v for_o every_o man_n ergo_fw-la god_n will_v have_v every_o man_n to_o be_v save_v and_o that_o

plain_a text_n without_o controversy_n which_o say_v that_o he_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n second_o i_o shall_v urge_v this_o argument_n if_o

that_o which_o be_v his_o neighbour_n be_v a_o antichrist_n which_o if_o so_o i_o fear_v there_o be_v few_o of_o your_o tribe_n will_v miss_v that_o title_n antichrist_n it_o be_v well_o if_o you_o

antichrist_n i_o be_o certain_a you_o never_o read_v it_o in_o the_o scripture_n but_o rather_o that_o prove_v he_o not_o to_o be_v antichrist_n because_o he_o that_o be_v the_o antichrist_n will_v be_v so_o far_o from_o pray_v to_o saint_n that_o he_o will_v neither_o acknowledge_v god_n nor_o saint_n but_o will_v oppose_v himself_o above_o god_n or_o saint_n as_o i_o already_o have_v prove_v as_o for_o your_o other_o two_o reason_n be_v trifle_n for_o in_o your_o second_o reason_n you_o tell_v i_o how_o the_o latteran_n council_n applaud_v the_o pope_n say_v that_o he_o be_v another_o god_n on_o earth_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v if_o you_o have_v add_v such_o a_o letter_n as_o be_v send_v from_o the_o samaritan_n to_o antiochus_n epiphanes_n 303._o read_v josephus_n p._n 303._o yet_o it_o will_v not_o have_v help_v you_o to_o prove_v the_o pope_n to_o be_v antichrist_n for_o what_o and_o if_o the_o latteran_n council_n do_v applaud_v the_o pope_n and_o call_v he_o a_o god_n on_o earth_n will_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o either_o council_n or_o pope_n do_v affirm_v that_o they_o be_v above_o the_o god_n of_o heaven_n or_o speak_v as_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n do_v

which_o be_v the_o examination_n of_o what_o you_o say_v to_o the_o reign_n of_o christ_n after_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o great_a antichrist_n because_o the_o other_o intervening_a discourse_v

of_o gog_n and_o gomâ—r_n and_o tubal_n and_o togamâ—r_n and_o the_o like_a and_o also_o possible_o i_o may_v prove_v that_o some_o of_o all_o these_o family_n will_v be_v of_o that_o multitude_n that_o shall_v cover_v the_o mountain_n of_o israel_n like_o a_o cloud_n but_o i_o have_v say_v enough_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o pope_n be_v not_o the_o antichrist_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o examine_v your_o examinitâ—on_n of_o christ_n reign_n on_o earth_n the_o which_o upon_o examinition_n i_o do_v marvel_v you_o will_v strain_v your_o reputation_n if_o you_o ever_o have_v any_o in_o bring_v into_o a_o public_a view_n that_o which_o have_v so_o little_a reason_n or_o strength_n of_o argument_n in_o it_o but_o i_o pass_v brief_o to_o the_o matter_n which_o be_v 36._o page_n 36._o christ_n shall_v not_o reign_v upon_o earth_n say_v you_o because_o christ_n tell_v pilate_n that_o his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v when_o christ_n tell_v pilate_n his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n at_o that_o time_n it_o be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n consider_v as_o it_o stand_v in_o the_o state_n of_o corruption_n and_o the_o

of_o scripture_n as_o i_o shall_v hint_n at_o some_o few_o of_o they_o and_o also_o show_v you_o when_o the_o time_n will_v begin_v and_o that_o will_v be_v at_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o seven_o

in_o this_o matter_n 4.16_o a_o discovery_n of_o the_o excellent_a effect_n of_o the_o seven_o trumpet_n in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o sound_n 1_o thes_n 4.16_o but_o i_o shall_v be_v brief_a and_o

from_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o say_v for_o the_o lord_n himself_o shall_v descend_v from_o heaven_n with_o a_o shout_n with_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o archangel_n &_o with_o the_o trump_n of_o god_n and_o the_o dead_a in_o christ_n shall_v rise_v first_o and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o seven_o or_o last_o trumpet_n be_v more_o plain_o discover_v by_o paul_n to_o the_o corinthian_n 52._o 1_o cor._n 15.51_o 52._o which_o say_v behold_v i_o show_v you_o a_o mystery_n we_o shall_v not_o all_o sleep_n but_o we_o shall_v all_o be_v change_v in_o a_o moment_n in_o the_o twinkle_n of_o a_o
