never_o any_o man_n that_o call_v himself_o by_o that_o name_n do_v ever_o go_v about_o to_o defend_v it_o before_o this_o author_n especial_o as_o to_o the_o latter_a of_o they_o the_o atheist_n however_o i_o will_v give_v his_o cause_n a_o fair_a hear_v according_a to_o the_o christian_a law_n and_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o reader_n to_o give_v in_o the_o verdict_n as_o for_o the_o jew_n and_o heathen_n though_o i_o dare_v not_o say_v they_o be_v damn_v because_o i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o allowance_n god_n of_o his_o mercy_n through_o christ_n satisfaction_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n may_v make_v for_o those_o insuperable_a prejudices_fw-la that_o they_o labour_v under_o yet_o certain_o they_o can_v never_o be_v in_o a_o equal_a capacity_n of_o salvation_n with_o the_o unerring_a christian._n first_o because_o the_o heathen_n have_v no_o certain_a guide_n only_o a_o probable_a rule_n to_o walk_v by_o that_o must_v lead_v they_o to_o happiness_n second_o both_o jew_n and_o heathen_n want_v those_o divine_a and_o excellent_a example_n and_o those_o infinite_a obligation_n which_o christianity_n afford_v we_o to_o bind_v we_o to_o our_o duty_n three_o they_o want_v the_o certainty_n and_o clear_a revelation_n of_o eternal_a reward_n and_o punishment_n to_o affright_v and_o persuade_v they_o to_o their_o duty_n and_o to_o baffle_v all_o temptation_n that_o they_o may_v meet_v with_o to_o draw_v they_o from_o it_o for_o there_o be_v no_o religion_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o do_v so_o clear_o and_o certain_o discover_v a_o future_a immortality_n as_o this_o which_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n have_v give_v we_o for_o he_o have_v bring_v life_n and_o immortality_n to_o light_v through_o the_o gospel_n he_o than_o that_o consider_v the_o mere_a reason_n of_o the_o thing_n can_v never_o conclude_v that_o they_o be_v in_o a_o equal_a possibility_n of_o salvation_n with_o the_o christian_a much_o less_o with_o the_o unerring_a christian_a as_o our_o author_n have_v say_v because_o they_o want_v those_o help_n which_o christian_n have_v i_o shall_v rot_v further_o examine_v this_o by_o my_o own_o reason_n but_o have_v rather_o as_o become_v a_o christian_n that_o use_v sometime_o to_o consult_v the_o scripture_n as_o well_o as_o humane_a reason_n to_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o to_o acquiesce_v in_o the_o determination_n of_o st._n paul_n rom._n 2._o v._n 13._o to_o the_o 17._o where_o he_o say_v i_o think_v as_o plain_o as_o word_n can_v express_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v whole_o condemn_v or_o acquit_v by_o their_o own_o conscience_n for_o they_o that_o have_v no_o law_n be_v a_o law_n unto_o themselves_o etc._n etc._n their_o conscience_n bear_v witness_n and_o their_o thought_n in_o the_o mean_a while_n accuse_v or_o else_o excuse_v one_o another_o in_o the_o day_n when_o god_n shall_v judge_v the_o secret_n of_o man_n by_o jesus_n christ._n but_o whatever_o may_v become_v of_o they_o sure_o i_o be_o that_o we_o that_o have_v have_v all_o the_o advantage_n that_o can_v possible_o be_v give_v to_o man_n to_o make_v we_o good_a christian_n be_v bring_v up_o from_o our_o cradle_n in_o the_o best_a constitute_v christian_a church_n in_o the_o world_n if_o we_o shall_v apostatise_v can_v have_v no_o hope_n of_o salvation_n remain_v for_o we_o for_o if_o we_o will_v believe_v s_o peter_n act_v 4._o v_o 11_o 12._o there_o be_v no_o other_o name_n give_v among_o man_n by_o which_o we_o can_v be_v save_v for_o if_o it_o hold_v against_o any_o it_o must_v against_o we_o who_o have_v be_v baptize_v into_o that_o name_n for_o st._n paul_n tell_v we_o heb._n 10._o from_o vers_n 26._o to_o the_o 30._o that_o if_o we_o sin_v wilful_o after_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n there_o remain_v no_o more_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n but_o a_o fearful_a look_v for_o of_o judgement_n and_o fiery_a indignation_n that_o shall_v devour_v the_o adversary_n and_o that_o the_o apostle_n there_o mean_v that_o particular_a sin_n of_o apostasy_n be_v evident_a from_o the_o follow_a word_n he_o that_o despise_a moses_n his_o law_n die_v without_o mercy_n of_o how_o much_o sore_a punishment_n think_v you_o shall_v he_o be_v think_v worthy_a who_o have_v tread_v under_o foot_n the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o have_v count_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o covenant_n wherewith_o he_o be_v sanctify_v a_o unholy_a thing_n and_o have_v do_v despite_n unto_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n now_o let_v every_o one_o that_o call_v himself_o christian_n choose_v whether_o he_o will_v believe_v the_o apostle_n or_o this_o gentleman_n as_o for_o the_o latter_a that_o atheist_n too_o be_v equal_o capacitate_v to_o salvation_n as_o the_o unerring_a christian_a which_o he_o affirm_v pag._n 30._o for_o have_v propose_v the_o question_n in_o these_o word_n what_o then_o shall_v we_o believe_v turk_n jew_n heathen_n and_o atheist_n in_o a_o equal_a possibility_n of_o salvation_n with_o the_o unerring_a christian_a he_o no_o where_o deny_v it_o but_o endeavour_v all_o that_o ever_o he_o can_v to_o defend_v it_o as_o in_o his_o follow_a discourse_n because_o there_o be_v a_o thousand_o accident_n that_o hinder_v the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n from_o a_o fair_a proposal_n of_o the_o principle_n of_o christianity_n therefore_o so_o small_a a_o part_n of_o mankind_n have_v submit_v to_o the_o christian_a faith_n what_o then_o therefore_o they_o may_v be_v save_v no_o for_o this_o do_v not_o direct_o follow_v for_o god_n have_v no_o where_o promise_v that_o he_o will_v accept_v of_o christ_n merit_n for_o they_o nor_o apply_v they_o to_o they_o and_o we_o can_v but_o know_v that_o since_o they_o be_v leave_v to_o the_o sentence_n of_o their_o own_o conscience_n there_o be_v few_o man_n who_o conscience_n will_v not_o condemn_v they_o of_o gross_a and_o wilful_a sin_n and_o therefore_o shall_v rather_o accuse_v they_o then_o excuse_v they_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n so_o that_o here_o be_v but_o a_o small_a probability_n leave_v of_o the_o salvation_n of_o most_o of_o they_o even_o by_o this_o author_n own_o reason_n which_o he_o give_v we_o pag._n 33._o because_o they_o have_v desert_v themselves_o that_o be_v their_o own_o reason_n as_o well_o as_o god_n but_o however_o the_o disadvantage_n they_o labour_v under_o may_v in_o a_o great_a part_n excuse_v they_o that_o be_v without_o there_o can_v be_v no_o excuse_n to_o those_o that_o be_v within_o ay_o e._n to_o we_o here_o in_o england_n who_o labour_n under_o none_o of_o their_o disadvantage_n and_o if_o the_o apostate_n among_o we_o can_v have_v no_o excuse_n then_o sure_o the_o atheist_n much_o less_o for_o he_o can_v plead_v that_o he_o do_v not_o know_v god_n for_o he_o can_v turn_v his_o eye_n no_o where_o but_o he_o behold_v something_o or_o other_o who_o frame_n be_v so_o admirable_a that_o it_o proclaim_v its_o author_n to_o be_v infinite_o wise_a and_o powerful_a for_o the_o heaven_n declare_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o firmament_n show_v his_o handiwork_n and_o that_o

motion_n the_o alwise_a order_n the_o never-failing_a constancy_n the_o never_o enough_o admire_v benefit_n and_o the_o amaze_a beauty_n of_o the_o thing_n he_o behold_v for_o it_o can_v possible_o
