christ_n on_o condition_n it_o may_v do_v his_o brethren_n good_a to_o salvation_n why_o shall_v we_o be_v such_o envious_a and_o churlish_a creature_n as_o to_o shut_v up_o the_o bowel_n of_o christ_n against_o the_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n which_o he_o be_v please_v to_o open_v to_o every_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o will_v receive_v he_o if_o this_o doctrine_n do_v shut_v they_o out_o of_o christ_n or_o from_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n well_o may_v their_o zeal_n be_v kindle_v against_o it_o but_o see_v that_o it_o debar_v no_o man_n from_o their_o right_n declare_v god_n abundant_a love_n set_v forth_o christ_n diffusive_a charity_n to_o the_o whole_a race_n of_o mankind_n what_o just_a cause_n of_o so_o much_o heat_n and_o passion_n against_o it_o wherefore_o if_o any_o come_v unto_o you_o bring_v this_o doctrine_n that_o christ_n die_v only_o for_o one_o of_o a_o city_n or_o two_o of_o a_o tribe_n of_o which_o then_o he_o be_v always_o one_o in_o his_o own_o opinion_n you_o may_v be_v sure_a pity_v his_o ignorance_n and_o bid_v he_o not_o godspeed_o pray_v unto_o god_n to_o open_v his_o eye_n to_o see_v the_o wonderful_a thing_n of_o his_o law_n to_o take_v away_o the_o spirit_n of_o pride_n from_o he_o which_o make_v he_o put_v himself_o among_o the_o number_n of_o they_o christ_n die_v for_o and_o shut_v out_o his_o brethren_n i_o come_v now_o to_o answer_v those_o argument_n which_o they_o bring_v to_o establish_v this_o uncomfortable_a doctrine_n that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n be_v a_o comfortable_a doctrine_n to_o every_o man_n and_o every_o man_n upon_o hear_v and_o believe_v of_o it_o can_v infer_v then_o certain_o he_o die_v for_o i_o but_o if_o he_o die_v but_o for_o a_o few_o there_o be_v just_a cause_n of_o doubt_v for_o every_o man_n whether_o he_o be_v among_o the_o number_n of_o the_o few_o and_o unless_o god_n give_v a_o particular_a assurance_n it_o can_v certain_o be_v know_v the_o argument_n which_o be_v bring_v against_o this_o truth_n be_v these_o the_o first_o be_v take_v out_o of_o john_n 17.9_o i_o pray_v for_o they_o i_o pray_v not_o for_o the_o world_n whence_o they_o argue_v thus_o those_o that_o christ_n will_v not_o pray_v for_o sure_o he_o will_v not_o die_v for_o but_o he_o pray_v only_o for_o the_o elect_n therefore_o he_o die_v only_o for_o the_o elect._n i_o answer_v this_o be_v a_o peculiar_a prayer_n which_o christ_n make_v in_o behalf_n only_o of_o the_o apostle_n as_o will_v appear_v by_o the_o content_n of_o the_o

second_o there_o be_v a_o vast_a difference_n betwixt_o a_o private_a prayer_n and_o a_o public_a prayer_n a_o private_a prayer_n point_v to_o the_o sore_a of_o a_o man_n own_o heart_n in_o this_o or_o that_o particular_a whereof_o perhaps_o all_o circumstance_n consider_v not_o one_o of_o many_o be_v guilty_a but_o a_o public_a prayer_n ought_v to_o be_v so_o compose_v that_o it_o may_v concern_v all_o the_o congregation_n and_o all_o the_o people_n may_v say_v amen_o to_o it_o now_o for_o a_o man_n to_o pray_v out_o of_o the_o sense_n of_o his_o own_o want_n only_o may_v be_v a_o good_a prayer_n for_o his_o private_a devotion_n but_o it_o can_v be_v so_o proper_a or_o so_o profitable_a for_o the_o public_a as_o a_o set_a form_n wherein_o the_o composer_n consider_v the_o
