A69227 A sermon preached at Paules Crosse, the sixt of February. 1596 In which are discussed these three conclusions. 1 It is not the will of God that all men should be saued. 2 The absolute will of God, and his secret decree from all eternitie is the cause why some are predestined to saluation, others to destruction, and not any foresight of faith, or good workes in the one, or infidelitie, neglect, or contempt in the other. 3 Christ died not effectually for all. By Iohn Doue, Doctor of Diuinitie. Dove, John, 1560 or 61-1618. 1597 (1597) STC 7087; ESTC S111946 36,520 88

cause_n of_o love_n and_o hatred_n without_o all_o show_n of_o injustice_n three_o he_o make_v it_o yet_o more_o plain_a by_o the_o word_n which_o follow_v vers_fw-la 18._o where_o he_o say_v he_o will_v have_v mercy_n on_o who_o he_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o who_o he_o will_v he_o harden_v he_o make_v two_o cause_n of_o salvation_n and_o damnation_n and_o both_o subordinate_a to_o a_o

which_o be_v damn_v be_v harden_v in_o their_o sin_n that_o they_o can_v repent_v and_o both_o those_o inferior_a cause_n be_v subordinate_a to_o his_o will_n as_o the_o high_a cause_n and_o only_o in_o himself_o and_o these_o inferior_a cause_n do_v both_o proceed_v from_o his_o will_n and_o final_o when_o he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o meaning_n election_n in_o he_o that_o will_v that_o be_v in_o the_o endeavour_n of_o man_n nor_o in_o he_o that_o run_v that_o be_v in_o the_o work_n of_o man_n but_o in_o god_n only_o that_o show_v mercy_n he_o teach_v that_o the_o only_a rule_n of_o

it_o be_v worthy_a of_o observation_n that_o the_o apostle_n do_v say_v when_o they_o have_v do_v neither_o good_a nor_o evil_a but_o he_o do_v not_o say_v when_o they_o be_v neither_o good_a nor_o
