to_o show_v that_o this_o reprobation_n do_v not_o in_o its_o self_n make_v any_o man_n absolute_o uncapable_a of_o salvation_n for_o if_o god_n have_v intend_v that_o by_o the_o act_n of_o

offer_v unto_o this_o or_o that_o man_n who_o yet_o he_o have_v make_v uncapable_a to_o receive_v it_o by_o his_o act_n of_o reprobation_n wherefore_o this_o very_a thing_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o gospel_n be_v yet_o to_o be_v tender_v to_o those_o eternal_o reprobate_v show_v that_o it_o be_v not_o simple_o the_o act_n of_o god_n reprobation_n but_o sin_n that_o incapacitate_v the_o creature_n of_o life_n everlasting_a which_o sin_n be_v no_o branch_n of_o this_o reprobation_n as_o be_v evident_a because_o the_o elect_a and_o reprobate_n be_v both_o alike_o defile_v therewith_o the_o second_o reason_n second_o god_n also_o show_v by_o this_o that_o the_o reprobate_n do_v not_o perish_v for_o want_v of_o the_o offer_v of_o salvation_n though_o he_o have_v offend_v god_n and_o that_o upon_o most_o righteous_a term_n according_a to_o what_o be_v write_v as_o i_o live_v say_v the_o lord_n i_o have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o the_o death_n of_o he_o that_o die_v but_o that_o the_o
