A29082	A confutation of the Dutch-Arminian tenent of universal redemption with relation in special unto certain sectaries in England : by name, the Morians or Revelators, with others tracing them, who hold that Christ died for all men, good and bad / by Theoph.

those_o who_o christ_n die_v for_o 2._o cor._n 5.15_o god_n the_o father_n reconcile_v unto_o himself_o 2._o cor._n 5.19_o god_n be_v in_o christ_n and_o reconcile_v the_o world_n to_o himself_o that_o be_v god_n be_v in_o christ_n when_o he_o die_v on_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o man_n and_o reconcile_v they_o unto_o himself_o now_o as_o god_n reconcile_v all_o man_n or_o the_o world_n so_o he_o justify_v they_o all_o for_o the_o text_n say_v he_o do_v not_o impute_v their_o sin_n unto_o they_o 2._o cor._n 5.19_o furthermore_o reconciliation_n do_v presuppose_v justification_n to_o go_v before_o for_o the_o party_n offend_v be_v not_o say_v to_o be_v reconcile_v until_o he_o have_v first_o forgive_v the_o offence_n and_o the_o offender_n so_o then_o the_o world_n which_o christ_n die_v for_o the_o same_o world_n god_n justify_v thus_o you_o see_v my_o major_n confirm_v next_o to_o confute_v their_o answer_n faith_n can_v be_v interpose_v betwixt_o christ_n death_n and_o god_n justification_n so_o as_o to_o hinder_v any_o man_n for_o who_o christ_n die_v from_o justification_n because_o those_o who_o christ_n die_v for_o 1._o john_n 2.2_o 2._o cor._n 5.15_o those_o god_n justify_v not_o impute_v their_o sin_n unto_o they_o 2._o cor._n 5.19_o and_o those_o god_n reconcile_v unto_o himself_o 2._o cor._n 5.19_o so_o faith_n can_v be_v any_o condition_n so_o as_o to_o hinder_v any_o man_n by_o want_n of_o it_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v from_o justification_n because_o all_o those_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o those_o god_n reconcile_v and_o justify_v if_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n than_o god_n justify_v judas_n yet_o judas_n have_v no_o faith_n interpose_v betwixt_o impetration_n and_o application_n for_o he_o be_v no_o believer_n if_o arminian_n say_v christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n then_o paul_n say_v god_n justify_v all_o man_n and_o i_o may_v say_v god_n justifi_v they_o whether_o they_o believe_v or_o not_o believe_v for_o faith_n can_v be_v interpose_v so_o much_o for_o my_o four_o argument_n argum._n v._n if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n than_o god_n the_o father_n love_v all_o man_n and_o that_o with_o a_o special_a and_o incomparable_a love_n my_o reason_n here_o be_v because_o god_n the_o father_n give_v his_o son_n yea_o his_o only_a son_n to_o death_n for_o they_o now_o for_o a_o father_n to_o deliver_v up_o to_o death_n his_o son_n yea_o his_o only_a son_n for_o a_o man_n this_o bewray_v love_n to_o that_o man_n yea_o match_n love_n see_v a_o text_n for_o it_o john_n 3.16_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n etc._n etc._n what_o great_a love_n than_o this_o do_v ever_o god_n show_v to_o the_o world_n than_o when_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n to_o die_v for_o they_o but_o god_n the_o father_n do_v not_o love_v all_o man_n with_o a_o special_a and_o incomparable_a love_n this_o i_o thus_o prove_v because_o there_o be_v and_o ever_o be_v many_o unbelieving_a wicked_a and_o impenitent_a man_n in_o the_o world_n who_o live_v and_o die_v in_o god_n hatred_n i_o have_v love_v jacob_n and_o have_v hate_v esau_n rom._n 9.13_o and_o see_v rom._n 9.22_o the_o wicked_a and_o he_o that_o love_v iniquity_n do_v his_o soul_n hate_n psal_n 11.5_o thou_o hate_v they_o that_o work_n iniquity_n psal_n 5.5_o 6._o therefore_o christ_n do_v not_o die_v for_o all_o man_n to_o avoid_v the_o strength_n of_o this_o argument_n arminian_o perhaps_o will_v answer_v thus_o that_o god_n love_v all_o man_n as_o sinner_n but_o hate_v they_o as_o impenitent_a sinner_n etc._n etc._n hereunto_o i_o reply_v that_o this_o be_v a_o distinction_n unheard_a of_o and_o no_o where_o ground_v in_o the_o scripture_n that_o i_o know_v of_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v reject_v that_o god_n love_v all_o man_n as_o his_o creature_n may_v pass_v as_o a_o sound_a position_n but_o that_o god_n love_v all_o man_n as_o sinner_n and_o that_o with_o a_o incomparable_a and_o matchless_a love_n be_v to_o i_o most_o unsound_a for_o a_o thing_n consider_v as_o evil_a be_v no_o object_n of_o love_n but_o of_o hatred_n and_o so_o much_o for_o my_o five_o argument_n thus_o i_o have_v by_o five_o argument_n prove_v that_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n and_o so_o i_o have_v finish_v the_o first_o thing_n propound_v at_o the_o beginning_n and_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o which_o be_v to_o make_v answer_n unto_o the_o text_n of_o scripture_n bring_v by_o arminian_o to_o prove_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n a_o answer_n unto_o the_o text_n allege_v by_o arminian_o to_o prove_v a_o universal_a redemption_n john_n 3.16_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n etc._n etc._n by_o this_o text_n arminian_n will_v prove_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n and_o for_o this_o end_n they_o urge_v the_o word_n world_n in_o the_o text_n which_o they_o will_v needs_o have_v general_o and_o universal_o take_v so_o as_o to_o signify_v all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n whether_o good_a or_o bad_a believer_n or_o unbeliever_n and_o so_o as_o christ_n shall_v die_v for_o all_o man_n in_o the_o large_a sense_n answer_n 1_o i_o take_v it_o for_o a_o great_a weakness_n in_o arminian_o to_o build_v so_o confident_o upon_o the_o word_n world_n urge_v that_o it_o must_v be_v general_o take_v here_o for_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n who_o know_v not_o that_o know_v any_o thing_n in_o scripture_n that_o general_a word_n be_v very_o often_o use_v by_o holy_a penman_n particular_o the_o general_a word_n all_o be_v often_o use_v particular_o for_o some_o or_o for_o many_o as_o in_o matth._n 3.5_o 1._o cor._n 1.5_o and_o 13.2_o 7._o and_o 9.25_o and_o 6.12_o and_o 10.23_o 33._o many_o example_n may_v be_v give_v for_o other_o word_n also_o but_o pass_v by_o they_o i_o shall_v instance_n in_o the_o word_n in_o question_n the_o word_n world_n be_v sometime_o take_v for_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n as_o in_o rom._n 5.12_o and_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v for_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n except_v eight_o person_n as_o in_o 2._o pet._n 3.6_o 1._o pet._n 3.20_o the_o world_n that_o then_o be_v perish_v over-flowed_n with_o water_n and_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v for_o the_o most_o man_n in_o the_o world_n as_o in_o 2._o cor._n 4.4_o john_n 15.18_o 19_o and_o 17.9_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n have_v blind_v the_o mind_n etc._n etc._n and_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v for_o the_o lesser_a number_n of_o man_n in_o the_o world_n as_o in_o act_n 17.6_o john_n 12.19_o these_o be_v they_o which_o have_v subvert_v the_o state_n of_o the_o world_n and_o behold_v the_o world_n go_v after_o he_o now_o since_o this_o word_n be_v so_o various_o use_v how_o can_v they_o be_v so_o confident_a as_o to_o aver_v that_o it_o must_v be_v take_v in_o the_o large_a sense_n my_o answer_n therefore_o be_v that_o as_o the_o word_n world_n be_v sometime_o take_v for_o the_o lesser_a number_n of_o man_n in_o the_o world_n which_o be_v disciple_n and_o follower_n of_o christ_n as_o in_o john_n 12.19_o so_o it_o may_v be_v take_v also_o in_o their_o text_n allege_v john_n 3.16_o for_o believer_n who_o be_v the_o lesser_a number_n of_o this_o world_n and_o this_o be_v my_o first_o answer_n 2_o i_o shall_v prove_v that_o the_o word_n world_n be_v use_v for_o believer_n only_o and_o then_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o as_o there_o be_v a_o world_n of_o the_o wicked_a so_o there_o be_v a_o world_n of_o believer_n also_o for_o this_o end_n see_v john_n 1.29_o behold_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n though_o arminian_n say_v that_o christ_n this_o lamb_n of_o god_n die_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o for_o all_o man_n by_o way_n of_o impetration_n yet_o they_o hold_v that_o christ_n have_v not_o justify_v or_o procure_v justification_n for_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n by_o way_n of_o application_n nor_o for_o any_o man_n but_o for_o believer_n only_o now_o this_o text_n speak_v of_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v no_o less_o than_o to_o procure_v justification_n and_o to_o make_v application_n of_o christ_n death_n by_o free_v man_n from_o their_o sin_n and_o therefore_o this_o text_n be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o world_n of_o all_o man_n but_o of_o believer_n only_o and_o of_o the_o world_n of_o believer_n for_o no_o man_n sin_n be_v take_v away_o but_o believer_n only_o see_v 2._o cor._n 5.19_o god_n be_v in_o christ_n and_o reconcile_v the_o world_n unto_o himself_o not_o impute_v their_o sin_n unto_o they_o here_o the_o world_n that_o be_v reconcile_v &_o

many_o hundred_o of_o weak_a christian_n neither_o can_v nor_o dare_v say_v christ_n be_v i_o or_o christ_n die_v for_o i_o in_o particular_a 2._o i_o judge_v that_o this_o act_n or_o kind_n of_o faith_n be_v a_o consequent_a of_o justify_v faith_n and_o may_v safe_o and_o comfortable_o be_v conclude_v and_o collect_v by_o strong_a christian_n from_o it_o thus_o he_o that_o have_v justify_v faith_n christ_n be_v he_o and_o christ_n die_v for_o he_o but_o i_o in_o particular_a have_v justify_v faith_n for_o i_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o my_o faith_n be_v accompany_v with_o good_a work_n as_o sanctification_n and_o mortification_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o christ_n be_v i_o and_o christ_n die_v for_o i_o in_o particular_a so_o much_o for_o clear_v of_o my_o answer_n and_o so_o much_o also_o for_o answer_v to_o their_o argument_n by_o this_o time_n we_o have_v finish_v these_o thing_n propound_v to_o be_v handle_v first_o we_o have_v by_o sundry_a argument_n prove_v that_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n second_o we_o have_v answer_v all_o their_o text_n of_o scripture_n and_o their_o argument_n whereby_o they_o will_v prove_v the_o contrary_n now_o in_o the_o three_o place_n we_o confute_v a_o common_a answer_n of_o arminian_o which_o they_o give_v to_o a_o notable_a objection_n of_o we_o the_o confutation_n of_o a_o common_a answer_n of_o arminian_o which_o they_o give_v to_o a_o notable_a objection_n of_o we_o first_o i_o shall_v propound_v our_o objection_n second_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o the_o arminian_n answer_n and_o three_o i_o shall_v confute_v it_o in_o my_o reply_n objection_n if_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n and_o all_o other_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a man_n why_o be_v they_o not_o all_o save_v how_o can_v any_o be_v damn_v for_o who_o christ_n die_v for_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o then_o have_v they_o suffer_v in_o this_o life_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n their_o surety_n the_o torment_n of_o the_o next_o life_n which_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n bear_v for_o they_o and_o in_o their_o room_n and_o place_n now_o god_n have_v punish_v judas_n and_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n on_o the_o cross_n in_o this_o life_n with_o the_o punishment_n due_a to_o the_o next_o life_n he_o can_v punish_v they_o again_o in_o the_o next_o life_n unless_o he_o be_v a_o unjust_a judge_n punish_v the_o same_o man_n for_o the_o same_o sin_n twice_o once_o in_o this_o life_n and_o once_o more_o in_o the_o next_o life_n and_o therefore_o judas_n and_o all_o other_o man_n must_v be_v save_v if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n answer_n hereunto_o dutch_n and_o english_a arminian_n both_o make_v this_o answer_n judas_n and_o the_o rest_n will_v not_o believe_v they_o refuse_v to_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o so_o to_o apply_v he_o and_o therefore_o god_n may_v just_o damn_v they_o joh._n 3.18_o mark_n 16.16_o see_v their_o acta_fw-la synodalia_fw-la de_fw-la morte_fw-la christi_fw-la pag._n 320._o and_o this_o they_o endeavour_v to_o clear_v by_o some_o similitude_n if_o a_o physician_n tender_v a_o potion_n to_o a_o patient_a he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v blame_v if_o the_o patient_n will_v not_o receive_v it_o and_o apply_v it_o but_o the_o fault_n and_o blame_n be_v only_o in_o the_o patient_a so_o if_o god_n offer_v christ_n to_o judas_n and_o all_o other_o wicked_a man_n but_o they_o will_v not_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o apply_v he_o than_o the_o blame_n be_v they_o and_o so_o god_n be_v free_a of_o injustice_n though_o he_o damn_v they_o an_z other_z simile_z be_v this_o a_o king_n have_v many_o subject_n in_o captivity_n under_o a_o foreign_a king_n pay_v a_o full_a and_o sufficient_a ransom_n for_o every_o one_o of_o they_o now_o many_o of_o those_o captive_n despise_v their_o liberty_n and_o choose_v to_o live_v in_o captivity_n and_o bondage_n in_o this_o case_n there_o be_v no_o blame_n

to_o live_v in_o captivity_n and_o thraldom_n still_o wherefore_o if_o god_n keep_v they_o under_o everlasting_a thraldom_n he_o be_v not_o unjust_a or_o unblamable_a but_o these_o despiser_n only_o be_v unblamable_a reply_n i_o shall_v first_o deal_v with_o their_o answer_n and_o then_o with_o their_o similitude_n i_o begin_v with_o their_o answer_n 1_o be_v it_o so_o that_o judas_n do_v not_o and_o will_v not_o believe_v but_o obstinate_o refuse_v to_o believe_v yet_o this_o free_v not_o god_n of_o injustice_n if_o he_o damn_v judas_n suppose_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n for_o clear_v of_o this_o i_o ask_v arminian_n whether_o christ_n die_v for_o man_n consider_v as_o believer_n or_o as_o sinner_n and_o unbeliever_n hereunto_o they_o will_v not_o say_v as_o believer_n for_o so_o they_o shall_v justify_v our_o doctrine_n which_o be_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o believer_n and_o for_o they_o only_o wherefore_o they_o must_v answer_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o man_n consider_v as_o sinner_n and_o without_o belief_n and_o so_o faith_n be_v no_o condition_n of_o impetration_n or_o of_o christ_n death_n and_o ransom_n pay_v for_o man_n now_o if_o christ_n impetrate_v and_o pay_v a_o ransom_n for_o man_n do_v it_o absolute_o and_o without_o any_o condition_n or_o consideration_n of_o faith_n in_o they_o then_o for_o application_n god_n the_o father_n can_v require_v faith_n in_o man_n before_o application_n or_o before_o he_o will_v apply_v christ_n his_o death_n unto_o they_o in_o justification_n unless_o they_o will_v absurd_o think_v that_o christ_n and_o god_n be_v not_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o mind_n but_o be_v at_o odds_o and_o difference_n in_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n as_o if_o christ_n shall_v buy_v and_o purchase_v we_o absolute_o without_o a_o condition_n but_o god_n shall_v sell_v we_o upon_o a_o condition_n so_o absurd_o they_o shall_v think_v the_o buyer_n and_o seller_n shall_v be_v at_o odds_o and_o not_o agree_v both_o upon_o the_o same_o term_n now_o since_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n without_o respect_n to_o faith_n in_o he_o than_o god_n can_v but_o justify_v and_o save_v judas_n without_o regard_n to_o faith_n in_o he_o then_o though_o judas_n do_v not_o believe_v and_o wilful_o refuse_v to_o believe_v yet_o god_n can_v in_o justice_n damn_v he_o for_o his_o not_o believe_v because_o when_o christ_n buy_v judas_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o god_n the_o father_n sell_v judas_n to_o christ_n there_o be_v no_o condition_n of_o faith_n intend_v betwixt_o they_o and_o therefore_o judas_n must_v be_v save_v if_o you_o say_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n than_o god_n can_v require_v faith_n of_o he_o so_o as_o he_o shall_v for_o his_o infidelity_n in_o justice_n damn_v &_o punish_v he_o in_o the_o next_o life_n god_n can_v be_v so_o unjust_a as_o to_o punish_v one_o man_n twice_o for_o his_o sin_n as_o once_o in_o christ_n his_o surety_n and_o once_o again_o in_o himself_o the_o principal_n one_o debt_n must_v not_o be_v twice_o pay_v wherefore_o to_o allege_v a_o reason_n from_o judas_n his_o unbelief_n why_o god_n may_v damn_v he_o in_o the_o next_o life_n be_v to_o allege_v a_o reason_n why_o god_n may_v deal_v unjust_o in_o the_o next_o life_n now_o what_o they_o shall_v say_v to_o this_o i_o can_v devise_v unless_o they_o will_v distinguish_v of_o judas_n his_o sin_n and_o so_o make_v a_o hotchpotch_n of_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n say_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o some_o of_o judas_n his_o sin_n but_o not_o for_o all_o as_o not_o for_o his_o unbelief_n and_o then_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n be_v make_v a_o half_a saviour_n or_o a_o partial_a saviour_n and_o christ_n die_v for_o some_o of_o judas_n his_o sin_n and_o judas_n die_v for_o other_o some_o of_o his_o sin_n and_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o judas_n his_o sin_n save_o that_o one_o of_o unbelief_n and_o judas_n be_v

it_o have_v be_v woe_n to_o all_o godly_a person_n for_o as_o paul_n say_v of_o the_o godly_a and_o believe_a corinthian_n that_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o they_o be_v ungodly_a and_o unjust_a as_o idolater_n adulterer_n drunkard_n and_o extortioner_n etc._n etc._n 1._o cor._n 6.9_o 10_o 11._o so_o may_v i_o say_v there_o be_v a_o time_n before_o our_o conversion_n when_o we_o be_v ungodly_a and_o unjust_a if_o therefore_o christ_n have_v not_o die_v for_o ungodly_a and_o unjust_a person_n no_o godly_a man_n now_o live_v can_v possible_o be_v save_v wherefore_o we_o must_v distinguish_v of_o ungodly_a person_n thus_o there_o be_v some_o ungodly_a person_n who_o be_v become_v believe_v and_o penitent_a godly_a person_n and_o for_o these_o ungodly_a person_n christ_n die_v as_o the_o text_n say_v and_o of_o such_o the_o text_n speak_v as_o be_v plain_a rom._n 5.6_o 8_o 10._o but_o there_o be_v other_o ungodly_a person_n who_o persist_v still_o even_o unto_o death_n in_o their_o ungodliness_n refuse_v to_o repent_v and_o believe_v now_o i_o deny_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o these_o or_o that_o the_o text_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o these_o these_o be_v dog_n and_o swine_n wherefore_o christ_n the_o pearl_n be_v not_o to_o be_v give_v to_o these_o matth._n 7.6_o christ_n will_v not_o vouchsafe_v to_o pray_v for_o these_o john_n 17.9_o and_o therefore_o he_o will_v not_o die_v for_o they_o and_o this_o be_v my_o answer_n to_o this_o text._n thus_o i_o have_v make_v answer_n to_o all_o the_o text_n of_o scripture_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v any_o weight_n in_o they_o for_o the_o arminian_n cause_n they_o have_v also_o some_o argument_n as_o two_o or_o three_o but_o the_o one_o of_o they_o only_o deserve_v a_o answer_n so_o pass_v by_o the_o other_o i_o shall_v here_o propound_v it_o and_o make_v answer_n to_o it_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o in_o their_o acta_fw-la synodalia_fw-la pag._n 337._o de_fw-la morte_fw-la christi_fw-la

christ_n die_v as_o for_o the_o major_a they_o prove_v it_o by_o this_o reason_n because_o if_o it_o be_v not_o true_a some_o man_n as_o those_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v not_o be_v bind_v to_o
