to_o be_v grace_n be_v contrary_a to_o all_o reason_n divine_a or_o humane_a and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v much_o folly_n and_o wrong_n to_o the_o spirit_n so_o to_o understand_v it_o for_o than_o

these_o three_o absurdity_n will_v necessary_o follow_v 1._o faith_n must_v be_v leave_v out_o and_o so_o the_o word_n which_o be_v clear_o the_o relative_a to_o the_o conclusion_n take_v away_o it_o

be_v of_o god_n and_o not_o of_o ourselves_o and_o the_o very_a word_n grace_n import_v the_o exclusion_n of_o self_n so_o that_o it_o will_v have_v be_v a_o tautology_n to_o have_v add_v not_o of_o yourselves_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n to_o grace_v and_o its_o contrary_a to_o the_o usual_a way_n of_o the_o spirit_n bring_v forth_o of_o truth_n by_o his_o servant_n but_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o grace_n he_o set_v it_o in_o direct_a opposition_n to_o work_n when_o ever_o we_o find_v salvation_n by_o grace_n mind_v it_o carry_v so_o much_o in_o it_o that_o it_o be_v of_o god_n &_o not_o of_o self_n it_o be_v a_o word_n that_o in_o itself_o do_v absolute_o separate_v the_o work_n of_o salvation_n from_o self_n and_o place_v it_o in_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v reasonable_o imagine_v that_o the_o apostle_n intend_v in_o this_o place_n grace_n to_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n but_o faith_n 3._o so_o to_o understand_v it_o must_v not_o only_o argue_v the_o apostle_n weak_a in_o speak_v tautology_n but_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n exceed_v weak_a and_o ignorant_a that_o they_o need_v to_o be_v inform_v that_o grace_n be_v not_o of_o themselves_o viz._n that_o grace_n by_o which_o they_o must_v be_v save_v which_o i_o do_v judge_n that_o there_o be_v never_o a_o carnal_a man_n that_o come_v under_o the_o sound_n of_o grace_n but_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v not_o of_o themselves_o for_o the_o word_n grace_n import_v as_o much_o as_o the_o love_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n and_o this_o must_v be_v of_o god_n and_o not_o of_o ourselves_o but_o many_o selfish_a man_n think_v that_o it_o be_v of_o themselves_o to_o attain_v this_o grace_n through_o faith_n and_o many_o believe_a man_n i_o fear_v be_v too_o much_o taint_v with_o this_o mistake_n and_o this_o be_v it_o the_o apostle_n either_o rectifi_v or_o endeavour_v to_o prevent_v in_o this_o place_n you_o be_v save_v by_o grace_n through_o faith_n and_o this_o faith_n be_v not_o of_o yourselves_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n for_o he_o be_v the_o author_n and_o finisher_n of_o it_o heb._n 12._o 2._o so_o that_o god_n have_v not_o only_o undertake_v to_o work_v faith_n but_o to_o preserve_v and_o keep_v his_o people_n in_o the_o new_a covenant_n he_o be_v the_o finisher_n of_o their_o faith_n as_o well_o as_o the_o author_n of_o it_o but_o to_o proceed_v 3._o god_n have_v great_o enrich_v this_o new_a covenant_n with_o all_o blessing_n and_o great_o enrich_v his_o people_n in_o this_o covenant_n for_o he_o have_v with_o christ_n and_o faith_n and_o interest_n give_v to_o they_o all_o thing_n 1._o remission_n of_o sin_n this_o be_v to_o be_v preach_v and_o be_v free_o give_v in_o the_o new_a covenant_n this_o be_v one_o special_a part_n of_o the_o gospel_n
