to_o the_o level_n of_o god_n fore-ordination_a with_o abraham_n as_o cut_v between_o these_o two_o sort_n of_o people_n say_v when_o the_o gentile_n hear_v this_o that_o be_v their_o doctrine_n of_o

for_o despise_v that_o grace_n which_o the_o gentile_n according_a to_o god_n covenant_n do_v now_o embrace_v verse_n 41.46_o 47.48.51_o so_o that_o the_o point_n be_v clear_a that_o god_n proceed_n be_v without_o all_o respect_n of_o person_n according_a to_o his_o covenant_n with_o abraham_n for_o curse_v and_o bless_v and_o the_o ground_n why_o man_n sin_v through_o ignorance_n and_o

of_o the_o jew_n i_o wot_v that_o through_o ignorance_n you_o do_v it_o as_o do_v also_o your_o ruler_n imply_v that_o have_v they_o know_v that_o be_v as_o do_v some_o other_o they_o will_v not_o

three_o observe_v that_o in_o this_o extraordinary_a call_n of_o the_o gentile_n to_o receive_v the_o blessing_n of_o abraham_n when_o god_n have_v enliven_v the_o aforesaid_a dead_a principle_n of_o enmity_n to_o satan_n and_o amity_n to_o himself_o that_o he_o will_v then_o have_v man_n to_o put_v forth_o this_o enliven_a disposition_n to_o come_v to_o he_o as_o he_o do_v excitive_o draw_v

etc._n also_o from_o this_o ground_n it_o be_v that_o in_o this_o four_o estate_n of_o man_n what_o god_n command_v man_n to_o do_v before_o justify_v faith_n or_o after_o he_o promise_v his_o own_o efficiency_n to_o accomplish_v what_o he_o command_v that_o be_v if_o man_n thus_o apply_v himself_o or_o otherwise_o not_o as_o prov._n 1.23_o 24._o etc._n etc._n he_o will_v communicate_v by_o exercise_n of_o the_o inferior_a the_o conferrence_n of_o a_o grace_n more_o superior_a as_o to_o the_o first_o inlve_v principle_n he_o will_v add_v the_o gift_n of_o faith_n and_o to_o faith_n a_o

by_o salvation_n but_o it_o will_v here_o be_v object_v object_n that_o one_o man_n have_v more_o because_o he_o work_v more_o consequent_o he_o deserve_v more_o not_o so_o but_o because_o he_o work_v to_o submit_v more_o answer_n and_o so_o to_o receive_v by_o mercy_n more_o therefore_o he_o receive_v more_o but_o he_o that_o as_o do_v cain_n by_o pride_n so_o refuse_v to_o submit_v or_o do_v it_o in_o the_o remiss_a degree_n he_o therefore_o receive_v less_o mercy_n or_o none_o at_o all_o four_o be_v it_o so_o that_o the_o force_n of_o god_n extraordinary_a pour_v forth_o his_o spirit_n raise_v the_o mind_n of_o man_n to_o he_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n and_o trespass_n then_o hence_o observe_v also_o when_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n be_v dead_a in_o sin_n and_o trespass_n namely_o when_o it_o be_v habitual_o habituate_v to_o seek_v its_o eternal_a felicity_n for_o the_o worth_n of_o his_o own_o righteousness_n or_o the_o like_a error_n or_o habitual_o habituate_v to_o
