the_o show_n of_o a_o rational_a answer_n though_o some_o have_v endeavour_v it_o with_o all_o wiliness_n 3._o that_o whereas_o by_o this_o doctrine_n they_o will_v clear_v up_o the_o way_n to_o a_o full_a and_o settle_a evidence_n and_o christian_a assurance_n they_o do_v hereby_o utter_o subvert_v the_o principal_a foundation_n of_o all_o settledness_n and_o assurance_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v this_o viz._n that_o if_o jesus_n christ_n be_v give_v to_o death_n for_o i_o than_o he_o will_v certain_o give_v all_o other_o thing_n to_o i_o if_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n much_o more_o shall_v we_o be_v save_v by_o his_o life_n if_o christ_n have_v die_v and_o rise_v for_o we_o who_o then_o shall_v condemn_v who_o shall_v then_o separate_v we_o from_o god_n love_n rom._n 8.32_o rom._n 6.9_o 10._o but_o if_o they_o hold_v no_o such_o principle_n i_o will_v then_o know_v how_o any_o man_n can_v have_v evidence_n of_o this_o viz._n that_o god_n love_v he_o and_o that_o christ_n have_v die_v for_o he_o while_o he_o be_v a_o sinner_n and_o as_o he_o be_v a_o sinner_n or_o how_o any_o minister_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n can_v say_v to_o any_o man_n under_o the_o power_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o the_o devil_n that_o he_o be_v not_o condemn_v for_o his_o sin_n but_o that_o god_n love_v he_o and_o that_o christ_n have_v die_v for_o he_o without_o preach_v falsehood_n and_o lie_v and_o dream_n of_o their_o own_o heart_n for_o 1._o god_n have_v not_o love_v nor_o elect_v all_o sinner_n nor_o have_v christ_n die_v for_o all_o sinner_n 2._o if_o every_o man_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o condemnation_n before_o he_o believe_v the_o gospel_n than_o no_o man_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o reconciliation_n and_o that_o god_n have_v love_v he_o until_o he_o refuse_v the_o gospel_n but_o every_o man_n be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o condemnation_n before_o he_o believe_v because_o our_o saviour_n express_o tell_v we_o that_o by_o faith_n we_o pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n joh._n 5.24_o and_o he_o that_o have_v not_o the_o son_n have_v not_o life_n 1_o joh._n 5.12_o and_o therefore_o if_o those_o be_v minister_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n who_o first_o preach_v to_o all_o the_o drunkard_n and_o whoremonger_n and_o villain_n in_o a_o parish_n that_o god_n love_v they_o and_o that_o they_o be_v reconcile_v by_o christ_n death_n and_o that_o they_o may_v know_v it_o because_o they_o be_v sinner_n then_o let_v the_o heaven_n hear_v and_o the_o earth_n know_v that_o all_o such_o minister_n be_v false_a prophet_n and_o cry_v peace_n peace_n where_o god_n proclaim_v wrath_n and_o that_o they_o acquit_v they_o who_o god_n condemn_v and_o if_o they_o be_v minister_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n spirit_n who_o first_o show_v man_n their_o condemn_a estate_n and_o then_o present_a god_n as_o wroth_a against_o they_o while_o they_o be_v in_o their_o sin_n that_o so_o they_o may_v prize_v and_o fly_v to_o favour_n and_o free_a grace_n than_o such_o be_v minister_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o not_o of_o the_o new_a because_o they_o preach_v the_o truth_n and_o if_o preach_v the_o truth_n be_v a_o old_a testament_n ministry_n no_o wise_a man_n than_o i_o hope_v will_v desire_v the_o new_a wine_n for_o the_o old_a be_v better_a while_o the_o lion_n sleep_v and_o god_n be_v silent_a and_o conscience_n slumber_n all_o the_o beast_n and_o wild_a sinner_n of_o the_o world_n and_o many_o preacher_n too_o may_v think_v that_o there_o be_v no_o terror_n in_o god_n no_o curse_n or_o wrath_n upon_o themselves_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o rage_n increase_n and_o power_n of_o all_o their_o sin_n but_o when_o this_o lion_n roar_v and_o god_n awaken_v and_o conscience_n look_v above_o head_n they_o shall_v then_o see_v how_o miserable_o they_o have_v be_v deceive_v they_o may_v slight_v sin_n abolish_v condemnation_n talk_v of_o and_o wonder_n at_o freegrace_n now_o and_o believe_v easy_o because_o they_o be_v sinner_n but_o certain_o they_o shall_v be_v otherwise_o mind_v then_o some_o man_n may_v have_v good_a end_n in_o preach_v god_n freegrace_n after_o this_o manner_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o make_v the_o gospel_n a_o revelation_n of_o god_n actual_a love_n to_o sinner_n as_o sinner_n and_o make_v a_o christian_n evidence_n of_o it_o nothing_o else_o but_o the_o sight_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o of_o his_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o it_o but_o little_o do_v they_o think_v what_o satan_n the_o father_n of_o this_o false_a doctrine_n aim_v at_o which_o be_v these_o four_o thing_n chief_o 1._o that_o sanctification_n faith_n etc._n etc._n may_v be_v no_o evidence_n at_o all_o to_o a_o christian_a of_o a_o good_a estate_n for_o this_o they_o say_v be_v a_o doubtful_a evidence_n and_o a_o unsettle_a way_n of_o assurance_n because_o they_o will_v hereby_o be_v as_o bone_n out_o of_o joint_n in_o and_o out_o humble_v to_o day_n and_o then_o comfort_v but_o hard-hearted_a to_o morrow_n and_o then_o at_o a_o loss_n whereas_o to_o see_v one_o self_n a_o sinner_n that_o be_v a_o constant_a evidence_n for_o we_o be_v always_o sinner_n and_o the_o gospel_n proclaim_v peace_n to_o sinner_n as_o sinner_n 2._o that_o so_o man_n may_v keep_v their_o lust_n and_o sin_n and_o yet_o keep_v their_o peace_n too_o for_o if_o peace_n be_v the_o portion_n of_o a_o man_n under_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n and_o satan_n look_v then_o as_o he_o may_v have_v it_o why_o may_v he_o not_o keep_v it_o upon_o the_o same_o term_n and_o therefore_o w._n c._n say_v that_o if_o conscience_n object_n thou_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n perhaps_o true_o yet_o a_o hypocrite_n be_v but_o a_o sinner_n and_o god_n love_n belong_v to_o sinner_n as_o sinner_n and_o if_o this_o be_v thus_o what_o do_v this_o doctrine_n aim_v at_o but_o to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o belial_n christ_n and_o mammon_n not_o only_o to_o open_v the_o door_n to_o all_o manner_n of_o wickedness_n but_o to_o comfort_v man_n therein_o 3._o that_o so_o he_o may_v bring_v man_n in_o time_n purposely_o to_o sin_v the_o more_o free_o that_o so_o they_o may_v have_v the_o clear_a evidence_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n for_o if_o god_n love_v be_v reveal_v to_o sinner_n as_o sinner_n then_o the_o more_o sinful_a the_o more_o clear_a evidence_n he_o have_v of_o god_n love_n and_o therefore_o one_o once_o entangle_v with_o these_o delusion_n be_v entice_v to_o commit_v a_o gross_a wickedness_n that_o more_o full_a assurance_n may_v be_v attain_v 4._o that_o so_o the_o true_a preach_n and_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o god_n freegrace_n may_v be_v abolish_v at_o least_o despise_a which_o be_v this_o viz._n thou_o poor_a condemn_a sinner_n here_o be_v christ_n jesus_n and_o with_o he_o eternal_a remission_n of_o sin_n and_o reconciliation_n if_o thou_o believe_v and_o receive_v this_o grace_n offer_v humble_o and_o thankful_o for_o this_o be_v gospel_n
