any_o preparation_n to_o justify_v faith_n for_o by_o christ_n stripe_n we_o be_v heal_v from_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n and_o to_o prove_v this_o truth_n i_o argue_v thus_o first_o all_o

truth_n i_o answer_v the_o due_a observation_n of_o term_n be_v the_o true_a preservation_n of_o propriety_n and_o except_o you_o just_o distinguish_v of_o the_o term_n before_o god_n himself_o and_o god_n grace_n by_o which_o he_o do_v justify_v his_o elect_a you_o can_v understand_v true_o but_o you_o must_v confound_v heaven_n and_o earth_n together_o and_o make_v god_n man_n and_o man_n god_n conclude_v such_o blasphemy_n as_o the_o familist_n do_v to_o who_o hundred_o of_o you_o be_v fall_v within_o this_o two_o year_n who_o affirm_v of_o the_o trinity_n that_o god_n the_o father_n be_v the_o mind_n the_o son_n be_v the_o word_n and_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o word_n make_v know_v and_o under_o these_o term_n mistake_v the_o verity_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o trinity_n conclude_v such_o gross_a blasphemy_n as_o these_o conclusion_n hereafter_o specify_v make_v god_n the_o father_n the_o mind_n god_n the_o son_n the_o word_n of_o that_o mind_n god_n the_o holy_a spirit_n the_o effect_n or_o revelation_n of_o the_o word_n and_o as_o these_o be_v three_o so_o they_o be_v one_o as_o you_o say_v so_o it_o be_v and_o be_v at_o first_o in_o the_o creation_n god_n the_o father_n be_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n god_n the_o son_n be_v the_o word_n of_o that_o mind_n and_o god_n the_o spirit_n be_v the_o work_n meaning_n or_o manifestation_n of_o that_o word_n so_o that_o in_o that_o which_o god_n say_v let_v we_o make_v man_n and_o he_o speak_v and_o the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v make_v the_o firmament_n the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n the_o sea_n and_o the_o fish_n therein_o the_o air_n and_o the_o fowl_n therein_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o beast_n herb_n and_o tree_n therein_o as_o god_n speak_v the_o word_n and_o all_o these_o be_v create_v so_o that_o as_o they_o be_v make_v by_o the_o word_n so_o they_o be_v the_o word_n and_o as_o the_o word_n and_o the_o father_n be_v one_o and_o as_o the_o father_n the_o word_n and_o the_o revelation_n of_o it_o be_v one_o so_o whatsoever_o the_o word_n make_v be_v one_o with_o the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o then_o the_o conclusion_n must_v be_v this_o the_o whole_a creation_n be_v god_n himself_o now_o to_o avoid_v such_o blasphemous_a consequence_n we_o will_v distinguish_v of_o the_o term_n and_o therein_o show_v the_o fallacy_n of_o your_o argument_n and_o then_o i_o will_v discover_v and_o establish_v the_o truth_n against_o your_o doctrine_n which_o by_o this_o mean_n will_v easy_o appear_v to_o be_v false_a first_o for_o the_o term_n that_o

the_o elect_a in_o point_n of_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n as_o the_o high_a heaven_n be_v above_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o with_o god_n himself_o there_o be_v nothing_o before_o nor_o after_o for_o the_o scripture_n speak_v thus_o of_o god_n in_o this_o respect_n that_o he_o call_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o as_o though_o they_o be_v rom._n 4._o 17._o and_o again_o

when_o the_o prophet_n come_v to_o speak_v of_o god_n work_n in_o the_o creature_n to_o salvation_n than_o he_o speak_v in_o the_o creature_n language_n and_o capacity_n so_o that_o except_o man_n obey_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n he_o be_v leave_v without_o excuse_n in_o these_o word_n seek_v the_o lord_n while_o he_o may_v be_v find_v call_v you_o upon_o he_o while_o he_o be_v near_o let_v

pardon_v verse_n 6_o 7._o thus_o as_o the_o prophet_n we_o must_v distinguish_v between_o god_n eternal_a purpose_n and_o decree_n which_o be_v a_o secret_a and_o know_v to_o himself_o only_o towards_o his_o elect_a before_o all_o time_n and_o his_o call_n and_o justify_v of_o they_o in_o time_n which_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o his_o foreknowledge_n and_o predestination_n and_o that_o which_o make_v know_v to_o the_o elect_a god_n secret_a purpose_n and_o although_o it_o be_v say_v who_o shall_v lay_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o charge_n of_o god_n elect_a the_o apostle_n there_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o justification_n of_o the_o elect_a before_o time_n as_o you_o do_v but_o the_o justification_n of_o his_o elect_a in_o time_n call_v and_o justify_v and_o although_o there_o can_v be_v nothing_o lay_v to_o such_o a_o elect_a justify_v to_o his_o condemnation_n yet_o many_o thing_n may_v be_v lay_v to_o his_o charge_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o weakness_n and_o frailty_n if_o any_o brother_n be_v fall_v through_o weakness_n you_o that_o be_v spiritual_a restore_v such_o a_o one_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o meekness_n thus_o nathan_n charge_v david_n and_o david_n charge_v himself_o against_o thou_o only_o have_v i_o sin_v so_o our_o lord_n charge_v his_o faithful_a servant_n peter_n and_o paul_n withstand_v he_o to_o his_o face_n and_o say_v he_o be_v to_o

second_o you_o say_v some_o of_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n do_v not_o believe_v and_o therefore_o they_o be_v justify_v before_o they_o believe_v i_o pray_v where_o do_v you_o find_v or_o learn_v
