the_o other_o concern_v god_n himself_o which_o choose_v nam_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n that_o be_v that_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o grace_n may_v be_v know_v and_o eternal_o make_v manifest_a of_o

shall_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n be_v make_v manifest_a in_o us._n but_o because_o the_o end_n which_o concern_v god_n be_v almost_o all_o one_o in_o the_o reprobation_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o in_o the_o predestination_n of_o the_o saint_n namely_o that_o as_o by_o the_o salvation_n of_o these_o which_o procee_v of_o his_o mere_a goodness_n the_o glory_n of_o his_o grace_n be_v make_v manifest_a

end_n of_o which_o we_o treat_v in_o this_o assertion_n be_v our_o eternal_a glorification_n and_o everlasting_a life_n in_o heaven_n let_v we_o now_o see_v in_o the_o second_o place_n what_o be_v those_o mean_n be_v by_o which_o the_o elect_a be_v bring_v unto_o this_o end_n and_o therefore_o to_o which_o mean_v we_o hold_v that_o all_o be_v predestinate_a whosoever_o be_v predestinate_a to_o the_o end_n and_o they_o be_v of_o two_o sort_n some_o of_o they_o be_v so_o necessary_a unto_o all_o that_o without_o they_o no_o man_n simple_o can_v attain_v unto_o eternal_a life_n and_o glory_n and_o they_o be_v christ_n as_o he_o be_v mediator_n and_o high_a priest_n and_o his_o obedience_n and_o justice_n for_o without_o christ_n no_o man_n can_v be_v save_v also_o our_o effectual_a call_n to_o christ_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o which_o follow_v this_o be_v our_o justification_n yea_o and_o our_o regeneration_n to_o for_o these_o four_o predestination_n vocation_n justification_n and_o glorification_n be_v so_o link_v together_o that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o sever_v the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o and_o therefore_o no_o man_n can_v be_v glorify_v which_o be_v not_o justify_v and_o no_o man_n can_v be_v justify_v which_o be_v not_o effectual_o call_v as_o also_o no_o man_n can_v be_v effectual_o call_v which_o be_v not_o predestinate_a therefore_o without_o these_o not_o so_o much_o as_o child_n and_o infant_n can_v be_v bring_v to_o this_o end_n of_o eternal_a glory_n and_o therefore_o even_o all_o the_o elect_a infant_n be_v inward_o in_o a_o certain_a peculiar_a manner_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n call_v and_o justify_v and_o glorify_v now_o there_o be_v some_o certain_a mean_n annex_v unto_o these_o albeit_o they_o have_v no_o place_n in_o infant_n by_o reason_n of_o their_o age_n yet_o they_o belong_v to_o all_o other_o elect_v howsoever_o they_o be_v find_v in_o some_o more_o plenteous_a and_o lively_a and_o in_o other_o some_o more_o slender_a and_o weak_a as_o namely_o a_o lively_a faith_n the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n a_o detestation_n of_o sin_n the_o love_n of_o righteousness_n patience_n in_o adversity_n a_o care_n to_o do_v good_a work_n and_o such_o like_a all_o which_o the_o apostle_n comprehend_v under_o the_o name_n of_o good_a work_n when_o he_o say_v that_o we_o be_v create_v that_o be_v bear_v a_o new_a in_o christ_n unto_o good_a work_n which_o god_n have_v prepare_v 2.20_o that_o we_o may_v walk_v in_o they_o that_o be_v that_o we_o may_v lead_v our_o life_n in_o they_o and_o so_o walk_v at_o length_n may_v come_v to_o eternal_a life_n for_o without_o they_o we_o can_v come_v to_o eternal_a glory_n but_o by_o they_o god_n trail_v we_o thither_o therefore_o we_o say_v that_o all_o which_o be_v elect_v to_o that_o end_n be_v also_o predestinate_a to_o the_o same_o mean_n for_o predestination_n be_v not_o only_o of_o the_o end_n but_o also_o of_o the_o mean_n which_o concern_v the_o end_n and_o all_o as_o well_o the_o end_n as_o the_o mean_n be_v the_o effect_n of_o predestination_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o true_a which_o augustine_n say_v predestination_n say_v he_o be_v a_o preparation_n to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n by_o which_o they_o indeed_o be_v free_v whosoever_o be_v free_v therefore_o the_o first_o gift_n of_o god_n that_o we_o may_v brief_o consider_v the_o effect_n of_o predestination_n prepare_v for_o all_o the_o elect_a christ._n without_o which_o they_o can_v in_o no_o wise_a come_v to_o the_o end_n and_o therefore_o the_o first_o effect_n of_o predestination_n be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n with_o his_o obedience_n merit_n death_n resurrection_n glory_n namely_o in_o that_o respect_n he_o be_v make_v mediator_n between_o god_n the_o father_n and_o we_o and_o the_o head_n of_o all_o the_o elect_a and_o therefore_o in_o as_o much_o as_o he_o be_v such_o a_o one_o he_o be_v also_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o other_o grace_n and_o benefit_n which_o come_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o free_a predestination_n of_o god_n for_o the_o effect_n of_o predestination_n be_v so_o order_v among_o themselves_o that_o the_o first_o which_o go_v before_o be_v the_o cause_n efficient_a or_o if_o we_o will_v so_o speak_v the_o material_a cause_n of_o the_o latter_a and_o those_o that_o follow_v therefore_o see_v christ_n be_v the_o first_o effect_n of_o predestination_n he_o be_v also_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o other_o effect_n by_o who_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o they_o the_o apostle_n therefore_o do_v very_o well_o to_o the_o ephesian_n in_o the_o first_o place_n etc._n say_v he_o we_o be_v elect_v in_o christ_n namely_o as_o in_o the_o head_n to_o be_v his_o member_n second_o he_o write_v that_o we_o be_v predestinat_a to_o adoption_n by_o christ_n namely_o to_o obtain_v it_o for_o we_o be_v adopt_v into_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n the_o first_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n and_o by_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o sonship_n we_o be_v real_o make_v the_o son_n of_o god_n yea_o and_o we_o be_v also_o endue_v with_o his_o spirit_n too_o that_o we_o may_v be_v bear_v anew_o three_o he_o say_v we_o be_v make_v acceptable_a and_o belove_a unto_o the_o father_n &_o his_o belove_a son_n nam_o christ._n fourrh_o that_o we_o have_v our_o redemption_n in_o the_o same_o christ_n by_o his_o blood_n and_o have_v obtain_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o all_o wisdom_n and_o understanding_n five_o that_o in_o the_o same_o christ_n all_o thing_n be_v reconcile_v as_o well_o in_o heaven_n as_o in_o earth_n in_o a_o word_n the_o apostle_n show_v there_o as_o also_o else_o be_v that_o whatsoever_o benefit_n we_o do_v or_o shall_v hereafter_o obtain_v count_v from_o our_o eternal_a election_n even_o unto_o our_o glorification_n all_o those_o we_o now_o do_v and_o shall_v obtain_v hereafter_o in_o christ_n and_o by_o christ._n therefore_o whosoever_o be_v elect_v to_o eternal_a life_n beside_o this_o that_o they_o be_v elect_v in_o christ_n they_o be_v also_o predestinate_a to_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o have_v fellowship_n with_o he_o that_o they_o may_v by_o he_o

their_o body_n also_o be_v raise_v up_o they_o may_v take_v full_a possession_n of_o eternal_a life_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v very_o certain_a that_o those_o which_o be_v elect_v to_o

of_o all_o if_o ever_o he_o true_o feel_v in_o himself_o that_o testimony_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o before_o i_o mention_v namely_o that_o he_o be_v the_o sonn_n of_o god_n let_v he_o know_v

although_o it_o be_v other_o while_o hear_v more_o plain_o and_o at_o other_o time_n be_v more_o slender_o and_o scarce_o perceive_v but_o how_o say_v you_o may_v i_o know_v whether_o that_o

who_o he_o will_v have_v to_o come_v to_o christ_n which_o also_o be_v say_v to_o be_v do_v in_o infant_n for_o this_o call_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o salvation_n even_o in_o this_o life_n and_o

must_v needs_o be_v that_o at_o length_n they_o shall_v believe_v in_o christ._n the_o four_o benefit_n be_v justification_n that_o be_v a_o free_a pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o imputation_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n for_o it_o follow_v faith_n because_o whosoever_o be_v endue_v with_o true_a faith_n in_o christ_n be_v also_o justify_v and_o that_o justification_n be_v a_o effect_n of_o predestination_n the_o apostle_n show_v when_o he_o put_v it_o after_o call_v before_o which_o he_o set_v predestination_n and_o when_o he_o say_v that_o we_o be_v elect_v in_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v be_v holy_a 1.4_o &_o without_o spot_n or_o blame_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o that_o this_o be_v not_o do_v while_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n but_o by_o the_o

make_v new_a creature_n by_o he_o &_o the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o not_o only_o by_o adoption_n but_o also_o by_o regeneration_n for_o when_o christ_n justifi_v we_o he_o do_v not_o only_o forgive_v

hatred_n of_o righteousness_n and_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o be_v not_o of_o the_o father_n but_o of_o the_o world_n therefore_o the_o chief_a affection_n of_o regeneration_n and_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o love_n of_o righteousness_n and_o of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n &_o the_o hatred_n of_o sin_n 8._o for_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v chief_o of_o christ_n thou_o have_v love_v

on_o they_o before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n and_o from_o these_o two_o affection_n be_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o regeneration_n arise_v a_o care_n &_o endeavour_n to_o do_v good_a work_n that_o be_v to_o fly_v sin_n &_o to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o seven_o effect_n of_o predestination_n for_o he_o which_o hate_v any_o thing_n from_o his_o heart_n he_o

he_o seek_v after_o and_o endevour_v himself_o to_o the_o compass_v of_o it_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n john_n make_v this_o a_o chief_a difference_n 7._o between_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o the_o child_n of_o the_o devil_n that_o be_v between_o they_o that_o be_v bear_v anew_o and_o they_o that_o be_v not_o bear_v anew_o that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n both_o love_n and_o do_v
