regenerate_v and_o have_v taste_v of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o have_v embrace_v christ_n and_o his_o holy_a word_n if_o he_o fall_v to_o sin_n again_o he_o be_v without_o remedy_n of_o salvation_n undoubted_o this_o be_v a_o very_a damnable_a error_n enough_o to_o bring_v all_o they_o that_o be_v infect_v therewith_o to_o desperation_n but_o albeit_o they_o ground_v this_o their_o error_n upon_o this_o afore_o allege_a text_n of_o saint_n paul_n &_o certain_a other_o text_n yet_o they_o miss_v the_o cushion_n because_o they_o take_v this_o scripture_n too_o straight_o not_o refer_v it_o to_o many_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n which_o show_n that_o whensoever_o &_o how_o often_o soever_o a_o sinner_n repent_v he_o true_o of_o his_o sin_n and_o commit_v himself_o with_o a_o sure_a faith_n unto_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n through_o christ_n god_n receive_v he_o again_o to_o grace_n and_o salvation_n doubtless_o no_o prophecy_n in_o the_o scripture_n have_v any_o

of_o holy_a scripture_n and_o so_o must_v this_o text_n be_v also_o now_o truth_n it_o be_v that_o there_o be_v almost_o innumerable_a text_n in_o holy_a scripture_n that_o most_o plain_o do_v declare_v that_o whensoever_o a_o true_a repentant_a sinner_n by_o unfeigned_a faith_n return_v unto_o god_n &_o ask_v mercy_n for_o christ_n sake_n he_o shall_v undoubted_o have_v it_o and_o albeit_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v full_a of_o such_o place_n yet_o here_o by_o god_n grace_n i_o will_v show_v and_o rehearse_v to_o you_o some_o of_o they_o to_o give_v you_o occasion_n to_o mark_v

almost_o innumerable_a mo_z of_o the_o same_o sort_n you_o shall_v perceive_v evident_o that_o though_o a_o christian_n have_v sin_v never_o so_o oft_o as_o who_o do_v not_o daily_o offend_v god_n yet_o whensoever_o he_o return_v unto_o god_n by_o true_a repentance_n which_o consist_v of_o inward_a contrition_n and_o a_o sure_a faith_n in_o christ_n jesus_n he_o be_v assure_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o recover_v and_o receive_v again_o the_o grace_n favour_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n which_o through_o his_o disobedience_n he_o have_v worthy_o lose_v and_o immediate_o to_o enjoyfull_a

that_o albeit_o they_o be_v high_o in_o god_n favour_n yet_o for_o all_o that_o many_o of_o they_o have_v great_a fall_n and_o commit_v very_o heinous_a offence_n but_o they_o do_v rise_v up_o again_o return_v to_o god_n mercy_n by_o true_a repentance_n and_o faith_n and_o so_o recover_v again_o their_o former_a grace_n which_o they_o through_o their_o own_o folly_n have_v lose_v aaron_z be_v so_o
