commit_v the_o oracle_n of_o god_n i_o interpret_v not_o these_o word_n but_o give_v this_o paraphrase_n the_o heathen_a be_v under_o the_o same_o law_n of_o grace_n for_o life_n as_o the_o jew_n but_o the_o jew_n advantage_n be_v that_o they_o have_v it_o in_o the_o second_o promulgation_n with_o this_o privilege_n of_o ordinance_n and_o our_o advantage_n be_v the_o like_a over_o they_o that_o we_o have_v it_o in_o the_o three_o and_o last_o promulgation_n by_o the_o gospel_n i_o argue_v then_o once_o more_o if_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a advantage_n the_o jew_n have_v over_o the_o gentile_a that_o the_o one_o have_v the_o oracle_n of_o god_n and_o the_o other_o have_v not_o then_o be_v there_o not_o this_o difference_n between_o they_o that_o one_o be_v in_o a_o capacity_n and_o the_o other_o under_o a_o impossibility_n of_o salvation_n for_o this_o be_v a_o advantage_n of_o a_o far_o great_a nature_n but_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a advantage_n chief_o because_o ergo._n the_o objection_n against_o this_o doctrine_n be_v two_o the_o one_o be_v from_o the_o scripture_n which_o in_o many_o place_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n do_v require_v faith_n in_o christ_n or_o believe_v the_o gospel_n as_o the_o condition_n of_o salvation_n he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v i_o answer_v as_o the_o apostle_n say_v of_o the_o law_n now_o we_o know_v that_o whatsoever_o thing_n the_o law_n say_v it_o say_v to_o they_o that_o be_v under_o the_o law_n so_o say_v i_o of_o the_o gospel_n whatsoever_o thing_n of_o this_o kind_n the_o gospel_n say_v it_o say_v to_o those_o that_o be_v under_o the_o gospel_n where_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v and_o revelation_n be_v sufficient_a so_o that_o man_n wilful_o reject_v it_o such_o be_v leave_v without_o excuse_n the_o case_n of_o such_o be_v dangerous_a indeed_o and_o these_o text_n applicable_a to_o they_o if_o you_o believe_v not_o that_o i_o be_o he_o you_o shall_v die_v in_o your_o sin_n but_o as_o for_o those_o who_o never_o hear_v the_o gospel_n or_o when_o the_o revelation_n have_v be_v insufficient_a for_o such_o conviction_n the_o case_n i_o hope_v be_v otherwise_o the_o case_n be_v i_o think_v as_o i_o have_v say_v and_o our_o good_a god_n will_v not_o require_v of_o any_o more_o than_o he_o have_v give_v the_o other_o objection_n be_v from_o the_o authority_n of_o man_n or_o of_o the_o church_n more_o general_o that_o condemn_v this_o opinion_n but_o i_o account_v the_o verdict_n of_o christian_n in_o this_o point_n be_v for_o themselves_o and_o so_o partial_a i_o suppose_v it_o take_v again_o upon_o trust_n and_o follow_v by_o the_o most_o for_o want_n of_o light_n and_o i_o believe_v also_o that_o if_o they_o have_v but_o this_o light_n only_o that_o i_o offer_v they_o will_v have_v determine_v as_o i_o do_v it_o be_v true_a i_o grant_v as_o the_o church_n think_v that_o there_o be_v no_o religion_n by_o which_o a_o man_n can_v be_v save_v but_o one_o only_o that_o be_v the_o true_a religion_n but_o this_o be_v a_o great_a truth_n here_o to_o be_v receive_v that_o christianity_n in_o the_o root_n according_a to_o what_o be_v say_v be_v the_o universal_a religion_n of_o mankind_n who_o therefore_o you_o ignorant_o worship_n he_o declare_v i_o unto_o you_o so_o that_o the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d they_o that_o live_v according_a to_o reason_n as_o socrates_n heraclitus_n and_o the_o like_a man_n be_v christian_n though_o they_o be_v not_o so_o call_v according_a to_o justin_n martyr_n in_o his_o apology_n which_o doctrine_n nevertheless_o to_o salve_v most_o full_o the_o eighteen_o article_n of_o the_o church_n at_o first_o mention_v be_v not_o to_o be_v harbour_v but_o as_o it_o be_v compatible_a with_o this_o certain_a position_n that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n for_o all_o that_o under_o heaven_n whereby_o a_o man_n be_v be_v or_o can_v be_v save_v but_o through_o the_o name_n and_o mediation_n only_o of_o our_o saviour_n for_o other_o foundation_n can_v no_o man_n lay_v than_o that_o be_v lay_v which_o be_v christ_n jesus_n out_o of_o a_o book_n concern_v the_o universality_n of_o redemption_n and_o two_o other_o point_n from_o the_o universality_n of_o redemption_n there_o do_v arise_v a_o government_n of_o grace_n which_o god_n have_v over_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o be_v a_o government_n by_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n which_o christ_n have_v purchase_v as_o the_o instrument_n of_o that_o government_n whereby_o salvation_n be_v make_v possible_a to_o all_o mankind_n or_o whereby_o pardon_n and_o life_n be_v make_v attainable_a by_o all_o man_n on_o a_o possible_a condition_n if_o you_o ask_v i_o what_o that_o be_v wherein_o this_o possibility_n be_v place_v this_o i_o perceive_v be_v a_o hard_a question_n make_v but_o i_o will_v answer_v easy_o it_o be_v to_o be_v place_v in_o the_o lower_a the_o condition_n to_o the_o capacity_n of_o the_o person_n have_v the_o power_n and_o

say_v purchase_v by_o christ_n by_o which_o we_o be_v govern_v and_o shall_v be_v judge_v that_o whosoever_o live_v up_o to_o the_o light_n and_o means_n he_o have_v in_o sincerity_n shall_v be_v save_v by_o it_o i_o will_v add_v whosoever_o do_v but_o what_o he_o can_v in_o order_n to_o his_o salvation_n be_v sincere_a and_o consequent_o the_o condition_n must_v be_v possible_a but_o see_v no_o mortal_a do_v what_o he_o can_v every_o man_n can_v do_v more_o good_a and_o less_o evil_a than_o he_o do_v i_o say_v if_o he_o do_v sincere_o what_o he_o can_v which_o all_o the_o elect_a from_o
