A95872	A very short and brief account of the free justification of God's elect, from the condemning power of the law, by that law change of persons, (flowing from an eternal act of grace, by way of covenant transaction between the Father and the Son;) which brought Christ as mediator under the curse and condemnation of that broken law, in the very room and place of elect sinners. : Whereunto are added, some questions concerning this point; : proposed to be answered by those that do so confidently affirm, that the elect of God are equally with others, under the same condemning power of the law, before faith. / By A member of a Church of Christ, in the County of Essex.

redeem_a and_o what_o be_v the_o ill_a consequence_n that_o follow_v if_o i_o say_v that_o justice_n do_v not_o charge_v these_o redeem_a one_o but_o god_n be_v complete_o reconcile_v to_o they_o by_o

of_o christ_n as_o to_o say_v god_n do_v not_o charge_v these_o redeem_a one_o see_v we_o likewise_o affirm_v that_o none_o know_v that_o they_o be_v not_o under_o condemnation_n before_o believe_v and_o that_o whoever_o die_v a_o unbeliever_n shall_v be_v damn_v except_o any_o suppose_n that_o terrify_a soul_n with_o curse_n and_o condemnation_n be_v the_o most_o effectual_a way_n to_o bring_v

be_v the_o most_o effectual_a to_o propose_v the_o truth_n as_o the_o object_n of_o faith_n which_o the_o gospel_n do_v reveal_v for_o salvation_n god_n pardon_v grace_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o invite_v sinner_n to_o come_v to_o god_n as_o reconcile_v in_o the_o bleed_a sacrifice_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n this_o it_o be_v that_o offend_v some_o that_o have_v make_v the_o great_a noise_n and_o have_v enfluence_v other_o which_o in_o other_o word_n say_v the_o same_o thing_n about_o word_n and_o because_o they_o can_v so_o direct_o strike_v at_o this_o free_a invitation_n to_o sinner_n to_o come_v direct_o to_o christ_n without_o their_o previous_a qualification_n which_o strike_v so_o direct_o at_o their_o idol_n self_n righteousness_n therefore_o they_o be_v please_v to_o brand_v the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n free_a justify_v grace_n with_o nickname_n at_o their_o pleasure_n and_o i_o wish_v that_o some_o which_o see_v otherways_o be_v not_o frighten_v from_o own_v the_o truth_n they_o believe_v and_o receive_v in_o the_o light_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n for_o fear_v of_o be_v lade_v with_o calumny_n and_o reproach_n for_o it_o be_v a_o try_v

that_o have_v go_v before_o we_o for_o christ_n will_v shake_v the_o earth_n and_o the_o heaven_n and_o remove_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v make_v and_o burn_v up_o the_o hay_n wood_n and_o stubble_n therefore_o let_v every_o man_n take_v heed_n what_o he_o build_v though_o upon_o the_o foundation_n of_o christ_n 〈◊〉_d cor._n 3.12_o but_o to_o return_v to_o the_o point_n in_o hand_n there_o be_v
