every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n this_o come_v within_o the_o arminian_n bound_n but_o this_o opinion_n be_v take_v up_o by_o other_o too_o as_o well_o as_o they_o that_o hold_v universal_a redemption_n but_o because_o i_o have_v already_o preach_v two_o or_o three_o sermon_n upon_o this_o subject_n i_o shall_v therefore_o only_o now_o speak_v so_o much_o as_o be_v needful_a to_o show_v you_o the_o rottenness_n and_o insufficiency_n of_o this_o prop_n 1._o suppose_v christ_n do_v die_v for_o all_o yet_o those_o man_n that_o be_v of_o this_o opinion_n that_o christ_n do_v die_v for_o all_o they_o do_v not_o hold_v that_o all_o man_n be_v save_v by_o christ_n but_o some_o man_n may_v fall_v off_o from_o christ_n and_o be_v damn_v notwithstanding_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o 2._o take_v this_o by_o way_n of_o answer_n that_o it_o be_v not_o likely_a that_o they_o shall_v have_v benefit_n by_o christ_n blood_n that_o have_v no_o benefit_n by_o this_o death_n 3._o to_o you_o that_o make_v this_o a_o plea_n for_o your_o hope_n of_o heaven_n observe_v this_o that_o where_o there_o be_v these_o general_a expression_n they_o be_v very_o ill_o understand_v if_o you_o say_v they_o speak_v of_o universal_a &_o general_a redemption_n as_o in_o 2_o cor._n 5._o 14_o 15._o because_o we_o thus_o judge_v 15._o that_o if_o one_o die_v for_o all_o then_o be_v all_o dead_a and_o he_o die_v for_o all_o that_o they_o that_o live_v shall_v not_o henceforth_o live_v unto_o themselves_o but_o unto_o he_o that_o die_v for_o they_o and_o rise_v again_o why_o here_o none_o can_v lay_v claim_n to_o christ_n death_n but_o those_o that_o live_v to_o christ_n that_o die_v for_o they_o and_o so_o in_o heb._n 2._o 9_o but_o we_o see_v jesus_n that_o be_v make_v a_o little_a low_o than_o the_o angel_n for_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n clothe_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n that_o he_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n shall_v taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n but_o mark_v the_o restraint_n in_o the_o next_o word_n for_o it_o become_v he_o for_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n and_o by_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n in_o bring_v many_o son_n unto_o glory_n here_o the_o apostle_n restrain_v the_o word_n to_o make_v the_o captain_n of_o their_o salvation_n perfect_a through_o suffering_n for_o both_o he_o that_o sanctify_v and_o they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v be_v all_o one_o for_o which_o cause_n he_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o call_v they_o brethren_n the_o apostle_n do_v here_o again_o restrain_v the_o word_n and_o therefore_o this_o can_v be_v no_o more_o prop_n for_o your_o hope_n that_o be_v not_o sanctify_v but_o thus_o much_o may_v suffice_v for_o the_o first_o branch_n in_o show_v you_o how_o wicked_a man_n do_v make_v those_o place_n to_o be_v scripture_n prop_n for_o their_o hope_n which_o be_v not_o 2._o if_o they_o do_v not_o make_v those_o place_n to_o be_v scripture_n prop_n which_o be_v not_o yet_o they_o do_v misapply_v those_o place_n which_o indeed_o be_v scripture_n promise_n and_o ground_n of_o hope_n as_o that_o christ_n come_v into_o 11._o the_o world_n to_o save_v sinner_n now_o this_o be_v a_o scripture_n promise_n for_o christ_n come_v to_o seek_v and_o save_v they_o that_o be_v lose_v but_o now_o 10._o belove_v man_n do_v misapply_v this_o general_a pillar_n of_o hope_n they_o take_v they_o in_o the_o general_a notion_n of_o they_o and_o this_o make_v abundance_n of_o people_n to_o harbour_v great_a hope_n of_o heaven_n in_o their_o heart_n but_o now_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o wherein_o they_o do_v misapply_v they_o 1._o in_o not_o consider_v that_o a_o man_n must_v be_v first_o in_o christ_n before_o he_o can_v lay_v claim_n to_o any_o promise_n of_o christ_n they_o run_v to_o the_o promise_n and_o never_o examine_v first_o whether_o or_o no_o they_o have_v a_o interest_n in_o christ_n the_o promise_n be_v good_a and_o comfortable_a but_o it_o can_v convey_v any_o comfort_n to_o thy_o soul_n unless_o thou_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n no_o more_o than_o a_o dry_a pipe_n can_v convey_v water_n to_o thou_o without_o the_o fountain_n we_o be_v first_o make_v christ_n and_o then_o we_o have_v a_o right_n to_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v by_o our_o interest_n in_o christ_n that_o we_o have_v a_o right_n and_o title_n to_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n if_o you_o have_v a_o

they_o object_n and_o say_v that_o the_o promise_n do_v run_v in_o free_a and_o general_a term_n have_v no_o condition_n annex_v to_o they_o answ_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v some_o promise_n that_o be_v absolute_a so_o as_o to_o have_v no_o condition_n go_v before_o they_o but_o every_o promise_n in_o the_o gospel_n have_v some_o condition_n or_o other_o annex_v to_o it_o if_o it_o have_v

have_v a_o real_a and_o well_o ground_a hope_n and_o those_o that_o have_v only_o a_o false_a and_o delude_a hope_n 6._o another_o false_a prop_n that_o wicked_a man_n build_v hope_n for_o heaven_n on_o be_v this_o because_o they_o live_v honest_o and_o just_o among_o their_o neighbour_n they_o give_v every_o man_n his_o due_a and_o do_v no_o body_n any_o wrong_n and_o the_o like_a and_o therefore_o they_o conclude_v themselves_o in_o a_o very_a good_a condition_n ans_fw-fr be_v this_o a_o sufficient_a ground_n for_o 1._o hope_n for_o heaven_n there_o will_v more_v of_o the_o heathen_n go_v to_o heaven_n then_o of_o you_o for_o they_o walk_v very_o exact_o and_o be_v just_a and_o upright_o in_o all_o their_o deal_n but_o wicked_a and_o bad_a man_n may_v have_v very_o good_a meaning_n in_o they_o as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o balaam_n numb_a 23._o 10._o he_o desire_v to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o that_o his_o last_o end_n may_v be_v like_o he_o this_o be_v a_o good_a desire_n and_o meaning_n in_o he_o 2._o take_v this_o for_o a_o answer_n that_o though_o a_o bad_a meaning_n will_v defile_v and_o pollute_v a_o good_a action_n yet_o a_o good_a meaning_n can_v advantage_v nor_o do_v a_o bad_a action_n any_o good_a as_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n they_o perform_v very_o good_a action_n in_o themselves_o but_o they_o have_v self-end_n and_o bad_a meaning_n that_o spoil_v all_o their_o duty_n good_a meaning_n can_v justify_v bad_a action_n if_o thy_o action_n be_v wicked_a good_a meaning_n can_v do_v thou_o no_o good_a rom._n 8._o those_o that_o say_v let_v we_o do_v evil_a that_o good_a may_v come_v of_o it_o their_o damnation_n be_v just_a 3._o let_v your_o meaning_n be_v never_o so_o good_a yet_o if_o you_o have_v a_o

convert_a estate_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o question_n which_o i_o promise_v to_o resolve_v which_o be_v this_o quest_n what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v without_o christ_n answ_n i_o answer_v it_o conclude_v in_o it_o these_o three_o thing_n 1_o to_o be_v without_o the_o save_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n 2_o to_o be_v without_o any_o actual_a interest_n in_o christ_n and_o 3_o to_o be_v without_o any_o spiritual_a communion_n with_o christ_n now_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o which_o of_o these_o be_v chief_o here_o mean_v that_o these_o ephesian_n be_v without_o i_o answer_v the_o two_o former_a for_o they_o be_v both_o without_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n and_o also_o without_o any_o actual_a interest_n in_o christ_n 1._o to_o be_v without_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v without_o the_o save_a knowledge_n of_o jesus_n christ_n though_o a_o man_n during_o his_o unconverted_a estate_n may_v gather_v together_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o notionall_a knowledge_n yet_o the_o scripture_n do_v lay_v he_o under_o this_o condition_n that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n without_o christ_n now_o a_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n in_o these_o 5_o particular_n 1_o a_o man_n may_v have_v a_o common_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n and_o yet_o be_v without_o a_o spiritual_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n he_o may_v have_v a_o natural_a knowledge_n by_o the_o work_n of_o god_n by_o hear_v read_v or_o the_o like_a and_o yet_o be_v without_o a_o spiritual_a knowledge_n to_o know_v christ_n in_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n 2_o a_o man_n may_v have_v a_o notionall_a and_o yet_o be_v without_o a_o experimental_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o scripture_n express_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o of_o the_o wicked_a man_n the_o lord_n plant_v wisdom_n in_o the_o secret_a part_n of_o his_o child_n but_o in_o the_o outward_a part_n in_o the_o head_n and_o in_o the_o brain_n of_o wicked_a man_n god_n make_v his_o child_n to_o know_v christ_n in_o the_o inward_a part_n 3_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n may_v have_v a_o contemplative_a and_o yet_o be_v without_o a_o affective_a knowledge_n of_o jesus_n christ_n wicked_a man_n may_v have_v a_o speculative_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n they_o may_v know_v christ_n as_o a_o man_n know_v his_o neighbour_n but_o now_o a_o believer_n know_v christ_n as_o a_o wife_n know_v her_o husband_n a_o believer_n know_v christ_n and_o he_o love_v christ_n too_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n he_o may_v have_v much_o light_n but_o he_o have_v but_o little_a heat_n in_o his_o knowledge_n he_o may_v grow_v much_o in_o a_o contemplative_a but_o not_o in_o a_o affective_a knowledge_n he_o know_v what_o he_o shall_v do_v but_o he_o will_v not_o do_v what_o he_o know_v a_o wicked_a man_n knowledge_n be_v like_o the_o moon_n it_o have_v light_a with_o it_o but_o no_o heat_n but_o a_o godly_a man_n knowledge_n be_v like_o the_o sun_n that_o have_v heat_n as_o well_o as_o light_v a_o believer_n love_v christ_n as_o well_o as_o he_o know_v he_o 4_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n he_o be_v without_o a_o appropriate_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n he_o do_v not_o know_v christ_n to_o be_v his_o christ_n there_o be_v none_o that_o do_v know_v christ_n to_o be_v they_o but_o those_o that_o do_v belong_v to_o christ_n now_o in_o this_o sense_n a_o man_n may_v be_v a_o great_a know_a man_n and_o yet_o not_o know_v jesus_n christ_n 5_o and_o last_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n he_o be_v without_o a_o practical_a knowledge_n of_o jesus_n christ_n they_o know_v much_o but_o do_v but_o little_a as_o in_o tit._n 1_o 16._o in_o their_o word_n they_o 16._o profess_v to_o know_v he_o but_o in_o their_o work_n they_o deny_v he_o though_o they_o know_v god_n yet_o they_o glorify_v he_o not_o as_o god_n they_o know_v many_o thing_n but_o will_v do_v nothing_o now_o put_v all_o these_o together_o wherein_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n be_v without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v without_o a_o spiritual_a and_o experimental_a knowledge_n without_o a_o affective_a and_o apprehensive_a knowledge_n &_o without_o a_o appropriate_a and_o practical_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n 2_o to_o be_v without_o christ_n imply_v not_o only_o to_o be_v without_o a_o save_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n but_o also_o to_o be_v without_o a_o actual_a interest_n in_o christ_n that_o at_o that_o time_n you_o be_v without_o christ_n that_o be_v during_o the_o time_n of_o your_o unconverted_a estate_n you_o be_v without_o any_o real_a actual_a interest_n in_o christ_n from_o whence_o observe_v doctr._n that_o every_o man_n during_o the_o time_n of_o his_o unregeneracy_n be_v without_o any_o actual_a interest_n in_o christ_n in_o the_o handle_n of_o this_o point_n i_o shall_v only_o do_v these_o three_o thing_n 1_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o the_o propertles_a of_o a_o man_n without_o christ_n 2_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o

you_o eight_o particular_a property_n of_o a_o man_n without_o christ_n 1_o every_o man_n without_o jesus_n christ_n he_o be_v a_o base_a man_n 2_o he_o be_v a_o bondman_n 3_o he_o be_v a_o beggarly_a
