but_o to_o return_v to_o our_o purpose_n of_o predestination_n i_o say_v that_o by_o the_o thing_n above_o mention_v a_o man_n may_v evident_o perceive_v that_o the_o assurance_n of_o predestination_n do_v not_o hurt_v but_o rather_o great_o profit_v the_o true_a christian_n and_o i_o think_v not_o that_o it_o can_v hurt_v the_o false_a christian_n and_o reprobate_n for_o albeit_o that_o such_o manner_n of_o folk_n will_v bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n and_o pretend_v to_o the_o worldward_n to_o be_v of_o the_o number_n of_o the_o predestinate_a yet_o can_v they_o never_o persuade_v their_o own_o conscience_n which_o will_v ever_o be_v gnaw_v and_o cry_v out_o to_o the_o contrary_n but_o yet_o it_o seem_v great_o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o predestination_n may_v hurt_v they_o for_o they_o be_v wont_v to_o say_v if_o i_o be_v of_o the_o number_n of_o y_fw-es reprobate_n what_o shall_v it_o avail_v i_o to_o do_v good_a work_n and_o if_o i_o be_v of_o y_fw-fr number_n of_o the_o predestinate_a i_o shall_v be_v save_v without_o any_o labour_n of_o i_o to_o do_v good_a work_n i_o answer_v thou_o at_o few_o word_n that_o by_o such_o devilish_a argument_n they_o increase_v god_n wrath_n against_o themselves_o who_o have_v discloze_v the_o knowledge_n of_o predestination_n to_o the_o christian_n to_o make_v they_o hot_a and_o not_o c●ld_a in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o to_o set_v they_o forward_o and_o not_o backward_o unto_o good_a work_n and_o therefore_o the_o true_a christian_a on_o the_o one_o side_n hold_v himself_o assure_o predestinate_v unto_o everlasting_a life_n and_o to_o be_v save_v not_o at_o all_o by_o his_o own_o merit_n but_o by_o god_n election_n who_o have_v predestinate_v we_o not_o for_o our_o own_o work_n lake_n but_o to_o show_v the_o greatness_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o on_o y_fw-fr other_o side_n endeavour_v himself_o to_o do_v good_a work_n after_o the_o example_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o much_o as_o if_o his_o salvation_n depend_v upon_o his_o own_o policy_n and_o paynestake_n as_o for_o he_o that_o cease_v to_o do_v good_a because_o of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o predestination_n say_v if_o i_o be_v predestinate_v i_o be_v save_v without_o strain_v of_o myself_o to_o do_v good_a work_n he_o show_v evident_o that_o his_o travel_v be_v not_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n but_o for_o the_o love_n of_o himself_o by_o reason_n whereof_o the_o work_n that_o he_o do_v may_v perhaps_o be_v good_a and_o holy_a to_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n but_o they_o be_v wicked_a and_o abominable_a before_o the_o lord_n god_n who_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o intent_n and_o hereupon_o it_o may_v be_v gather_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o predestination_n work_v rather_o good_a than_o harm_n to_o the_o false_a christian_n for_o it_o discover_v their_o hypocrisy_n which_o can_v not_o cure_v itself_o so_o long_o as_o it_o lie_v hide_v under_o the_o mantle_n of_o outward_a work_n but_o i_o will_v have_v they_o that_o say_v i_o will_v not_o strain_v myself_o to_o do_v well_o for_o if_o i_o be_v predestinate_v i_o shall_v be_v save_v without_o tire_v of_o myself_o so_o much_o i_o say_v i_o will_v have_v they_o tell_v i_o how_o it_o happen_v that_o when_o they_o be_v disease_v they_o say_v not_o also_o i_o will_v have_v neither_o physician_n nor_o physic_n for_o look_v what_o god_n have_v determine_v upon_o i_o can_v but_o come_v to_o pass_v why_o eat_v they_o why_o drink_v they_o why_o till_o they_o the_o ground_n why_o plant_v they_o vine_n and_o why_o be_v they_o so_o diligent_a in_o do_v all_o thing_n convenient_a for_o too_o sustain_v the_o body_n why_o say_v they_o not_o also_o that_o all_o these_o turmoylynge_v policy_n and_o travel_n of_o we_o be_v superfluous_a forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a but_o that_o what_o soever_o god_n have_v foresee_v and_o determine_v concern_v our_o life_n and_o death_n must_v needs_o come_v to_o pass_v and_o therefore_o if_o god_n providence_n make_v they_o not_o negligent_a and_o idle_a in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o the_o body_n why_o shall_v it_o make_v they_o more_o slothful_a and_o negligent_a in_o that_o which_o concern_v the_o christian_a
