according_a to_o this_o exposition_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o it_o be_v imply_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o these_o man_n or_o else_o there_o seem_v no_o force_n in_o the_o argument_n to_o prove_v

that_o they_o be_v not_o unrecoverable_a before_o they_o be_v apostate_n and_o yet_o the_o reason_n of_o their_o uncureableness_n lie_v in_o this_o that_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o their_o pardon_n

this_o reason_n it_o may_v be_v say_v as_o well_o that_o their_o recovery_n and_o pardon_n be_v as_o impossible_a then_o and_o so_o their_o apostasy_n shall_v not_o be_v the_o reason_n but_o christ_n not_o die_v for_o they_o at_o all_o shall_v be_v it_o which_o be_v plain_o contrary_a to_o the_o text._n but_o if_o any_o will_v needs_o deny_v this_o most_o probable_a interpretation_n and_o expound_v it_o efficient_a that_o they_o do_v as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v to_o kill_v christ_n again_o by_o their_o malice_n and_o contempt_n and_o make_v he_o to_o be_v but_o as_o a_o malefactor_n

what_o force_n be_v there_o in_o the_o argument_n for_o it_o seem_v to_o run_v thus_o they_o that_o as_o much_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v put_v christ_n to_o death_n twice_o or_o a_o second_o time_n be_v

they_o be_v therefore_o remediless_a for_o endeavour_v it_o a_o second_o time_n for_o it_o be_v but_o once_o by_o they_o and_o if_o the_o same_o sin_n be_v pardonable_a in_o those_o that_o not_o only_o in_o desire_n but_o in_o act_n do_v put_v he_o to_o death_n viz._n the_o jew_n than_o it_o appear_v that_o it_o be_v a_o pardonable_a sin_n and_o that_o the_o same_o sin_n nay_o the_o

apparent_o false_a see_v it_o suppose_v that_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o now_o the_o same_o as_o then_o which_o be_v false_a a_o second_o argument_n for_o universal_a satisfaction_n this_o

they_o be_v within_o a_o step_n of_o infidelity_n and_o next_o in_o danger_n of_o say_v that_o christ_n die_v in_o vain_a sure_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v give_v by_o christ_n crucify_a and_o i_o think_v only_o to_o they_o for_o who_o he_o be_v crucify_a the_o devil_n be_v not_o therefore_o uncurable_a for_o aught_o any_o scripture_n reveal_v because_o they_o will_v put_v christ_n to_o death_n through_o malice_n if_o it_o be_v in_o their_o power_n nor_o have_v they_o ever_o these_o fruit_n of_o his_o death_n but_o according_a to_o their_o sense_n against_o who_o i_o argue_v the_o devil_n may_v hence_o be_v say_v to_o be_v unpardonable_a as_o well_o as_o apostate_n which_o be_v no_o scripture_n doctrine_n the_o seven_o text_n which_o i_o shall_v urge_v be_v heb._n 10._o 26_o 27_o 28_o
