A36522	Klētoi tetērēmēnoi, or, The Saints perseverance asserted in its positive grounds and vindicated from all material exceptions against it occasioned by a late immodest account of two conferences upon that point, between Tho. Danson and Mr. Jer. Ives, published by the said Mr. Ives, which account is also herein rectified, and its falshood detected to the just shame of the publisher / by Tho. Danson.

superfluous_a word_n he_o say_v that_o if_o by_o not_o i_o mean_v neither_o for_o the_o present_a nor_o future_a fall_v from_o that_o state_n and_o sin_n as_o the_o wicked_a do_v than_o he_o deny_v

omit_v they_o to_o prove_v my_o minor_a i_o quote_v 1_o joh._n 3.9_o whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n can_v commit_v sin_n etc._n etc._n mr._n ives_n present_o reply_v that_o this_o prove_v no_o

chap._n 1.8.10_o jam._n 3.2_o ergo_fw-la the_o latter_a for_o i_o know_v not_o tertium_fw-la and_o so_o i_o form_v my_o argument_n thus_o whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n can_v sin_v as_o wicked_a man_n do_v but_o all_o true_a believer_n be_v bear_v of_o god_n ergo_fw-la true_a believer_n can_v sin_v as_o wicked_a man_n do_v which_o argument_n mr._n ives_n have_v omit_v yet_o he_o continue_v

bear_v of_o god_n their_o not_o sin_v as_o wicked_a man_n do_v be_v of_o equal_a force_n to_o exclude_v his_o future_a as_o his_o present_n not_o sin_v as_o wicked_a man_n do_v viz._n because_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n remain_v in_o he_o ver_fw-la 9_o whence_o i_o argue_v thus_o they_o in_o who_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n remain_v can_v sin_v as_o wicked_a man_n do_v but_o in_o those_o who_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n the_o seed_n of_o god_n remain_v ergo_fw-la whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n can_v sin_v as_o wicked_a man_n do_v mr._n ives_n cavil_v much_o about_o the_o term_n remain_v which_o i_o urge_v as_o plain_o exclude_v a_o cease_n or_o lose_v of_o grace_n total_o and_o he_o pretend_v that_o my_o argument_n be_v but_o like_o this_o they_o that_o come_v into_o this_o house_n remain_z in_o it_o ergo_fw-la they_o can_v cease_v from_o remain_v in_o it_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v fallacia_fw-la compositionis_fw-la and_o divisionis_fw-la as_o we_o say_v in_o logic_n to_o say_v believer_n whilst_o believer_n can_v cease_v to_o be_v believer_n for_o they_o can_v be_v both_o as_o to_o state_n at_o the_o same_o time_n but_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o they_o that_o be_v such_o may_v become_v unbeliever_n and_o as_o to_o his_o instance_n if_o apply_v to_o our_o question_n the_o meaning_n be_v not_o whether_o he_o that_o be_v now_o in_o the_o house_n may_v be_v out_o of_o it_o at_o the_o same_o time_n but_o whether_o he_o that_o be_v in_o it_o can_v afterward_o go_v out_o which_o by_o force_n or_o other_o impediment_n may_v become_v to_o he_o impossible_a though_o possible_a in_o itself_o here_o he_o cavil_v about_o the_o word_n seed_n of_o god_n i_o ask_v he_o how_o he_o understand_v the_o phrase_n because_o i_o think_v it_o so_o plain_a as_o that_o i_o suppose_v he_o take_v it_o in_o the_o same_o sense_n i_o do_v and_o as_o it_o be_v common_o understand_v viz._n for_o a_o principle_n of_o grace_n which_o mr._n ives_n understand_v not_o but_o at_o length_n he_o say_v he_o understand_v by_o it_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o quote_v 1_o pet._n 1.23_o 24._o to_o which_o i_o reply_v that_o in_o that_o place_n the_o word_n be_v not_o call_v the_o seed_n of_o god_n but_o believer_n be_v say_v to_o be_v bear_v of_o incorruptible_a seed_n by_o the_o word_n but_o suppose_v it_o have_v yet_o the_o sense_n be_v the_o same_o viz._n that_o the_o impression_n of_o the_o word_n remain_v in_o a_o true_a believer_n in_o which_o sense_n it_o be_v say_v the_o word_n abide_v for_o ever_o 1_o pet._n 1.23_o 25._o at_o last_o i_o prove_v that_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n can_v but_o remain_v in_o a_o true_a believer_n from_o the_o promise_n those_o to_o who_o god_n have_v make_v a_o promise_n that_o in_o they_o the_o seed_n or_o principle_n of_o grace_n shall_v remain_v in_o they_o it_o can_v but_o remain_v but_o to_o all_o true_a believer_n god_n have_v make_v such_o a_o promise_n ergo_fw-la the_o seed_n can_v but_o remain_v in_o they_o he_o deny_v the_o major_a i_o prove_v it_o thus_o if_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n remain_v not_o in_o they_o to_o who_o god_n have_v promise_v than_o the_o promise_v of_o god_n be_v untrue_a but_o they_o be_v not_o untrue_a ergo_fw-la the_o seed_n of_o god_n shall_v remain_v etc._n etc._n note_n that_o here_o it_o be_v that_o mr._n lueff_fw-mi admonish_v mr._n ives_n of_o his_o

give_v instance_n in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n to_o abraham_n that_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n shall_v be_v to_o his_o seed_n a_o everlasting_a possession_n and_o yet_o that_o he_o will_v
