some_o say_v that_o either_o know_v not_o what_o they_o speak_v or_o will_v not_o know_v but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v in_o the_o theory_n unless_o i_o much_o mistake_v both_o side_n meet_v in_o the_o practice_n if_o any_o man_n shall_v ask_v i_o concern_v the_o decree_n of_o election_n and_o reprobation_n predestination_n predestination_n here_o be_v a_o counterpane_n of_o it_o in_o my_o text_n i_o will_v not_o say_v this_o be_v god_n whole_a decree_n i_o dare_v say_v no_o secret_a decree_n contradict_v it_o we_o need_v not_o climb_v up_o into_o heaven_n then_o to_o see_v whether_o god_n

they_o there_o if_o we_o find_v they_o not_o here_o certain_o they_o be_v not_o there_o i_o say_v then_o leave_v dispute_v about_o election_n and_o labour_n to_o make_v your_o call_n and_o election_n sure_a begin_v at_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o ladder_n and_o add_v to_o your_o faith_n virtue_n and_o to_o virtue_n knowledge_n and_o to_o knowledge_n temperance_n etc._n etc._n thus_o our_o saviour_n

this_o that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v save_v grace_n must_v be_v receive_v and_o improve_v the_o spirit_n be_v the_o principal_a cause_n but_o we_o must_v cooperate_v we_o be_v not_o able_a of_o

one_o side_n say_v we_o shall_v infallibl_o stand_v perseverance_n perseverance_n and_o as_o possible_a for_o christ_n to_o fall_v out_o of_o heaven_n as_o a_o saint_n from_o christ_n the_o other_o side_n that_o god_n will_v not_o forsake_v we_o unless_o we_o forsake_v he_o and_o give_v we_o grace_v sufficient_a that_o we_o may_v not_o fall_v but_o do_v not_o so_o infallible_o hold_v we_o up_o
