sempiternal_a john_n 8._o if_o you_o shall_v abide_v in_o my_o word_n then_o shall_v you_o be_v very_o my_o disciple_n therefore_o such_o as_o be_v true_a disciple_n of_o christ_n abide_v in_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v persevere_v in_o his_o faith_n and_o word_n for_o as_o these_o two_o be_v liable_a to_o a_o mutual_a conversion_n such_o as_o do_v not_o abide_v in_o the_o word_n of_o

that_o be_v not_o the_o house_n of_o christ_n such_o do_v not_o retain_v faith_n and_o hope_n unto_o the_o end_n now_o all_o the_o elect_a and_o saint_n of_o who_o be_v the_o question_n be_v the_o

therefore_o which_o be_v make_v the_o house_n of_o god_n do_v retain_v faith_n and_o hope_n unto_o the_o end_n wherefore_o they_o can_v utterlie_o fall_v from_o christ_n and_o faith_n john_n 10._o the_o lord_n say_v of_o his_o 17._o 5_o john_n 6._o 17._o sheep_n i_o do_v give_v unto_o they_o life_n eternal_a neither_o shall_v they_o perish_v for_o ever_o neither_o shall_v any_o man_n take_v they_o out_o of_o my_o hand_n these_o word_n be_v declaratorie_n first_o that_o his_o will_n be_v that_o the_o sheep_n give_v to_o he_o of_o his_o father_n shall_v not_o be_v take_v out_o of_o his_o

therefore_o it_o be_v a_o necessary_a consequent_a that_o after_o the_o elect_n be_v once_o give_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o christ_n by_o faith_n they_o can_v after_o be_v take_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n and_o that_o neither_o for_o ever_o nor_o for_o a_o time_n for_o thereupon_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o father_n and_o christ_n shall_v be_v more_o infirm_a and_o weak_a at_o least_o for_o a_o time_n than_o he_o who_o shall_v violent_o take_v such_o sheep_n out_o of_o his_o hand_n for_o a_o time_n but_o this_o be_v blasphemy_n for_o he_o say_v absolute_o himself_o and_o the_o father_n which_o give_v be_v mighty_a to_o wit_n at_o all_o time_n and_o always_o than_o all_o creature_n therefore_o in_o no_o case_n can_v it_o be_v that_o the_o elect_n after_o they_o be_v once_o give_v by_o faith_n into_o the_o save_a hand_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v take_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n or_o utter_o fail_v from_o he_o so_o also_o have_v bucer_n expound_v this_o place_n again_o say_v he_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o it_o be_v of_o his_o only_a love_n that_o we_o be_v sheep_n and_o do_v follow_v christ_n then_o be_v such_o we_o can_v never_o fall_v away_o for_o that_o the_o father_n and_o son_n be_v one_o and_o have_v the_o same_o hand_n that_o be_v power_n out_o of_o which_o none_o can_v never_o take_v away_o they_o who_o it_o have_v once_o apprehend_v

bucer_n therefore_o as_o well_o out_o of_o the_o word_n and_o argumentation_n of_o christ_n as_o of_o the_o interpretation_n of_o bucer_n and_o also_o that_o particle_n once_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o evasion_n be_v very_o childish_a whereby_o the_o adversary_n strive_v to_o avoid_v all_o these_o place_n by_o quamdiu_fw-la how_o long_o and_o finaliter_fw-la final_o beside_o these_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n which_o you_o have_v in_o my_o lecture_n these_o also_o which_o i_o have_v now_o allege_v do_v to_o i_o appear_v by_o sufficient_a plainness_n to_o confirm_v this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o perseverance_n of_o saint_n in_o the_o faith_n when_o you_o desire_v i_o will_v produce_v more_o moreover_o that_o you_o may_v understand_v that_o i_o do_v not_o abuse_v scripture_n for_o confirmation_n of_o this_o doctrine_n i_o will_v now_o produce_v both_o testimony_n of_o the_o father_n of_o the_o ancient_a church_n as_o alse_a of_o late_a divine_n whereby_o the_o same_o sentence_n shall_v be_v so_o confirm_v as_o that_o unless_o a_o man_n will_v purpose_v lie_v shut_v his_o eye_n against_o the_o truth_n he_o can_v make_v no_o further_o doubt_v out_o of_o the_o father_n but_o i_o will_v not_o relate_v all_o the_o testimony_n of_o father_n both_o for_o that_o a_o short_a confession_n will_v not_o bear_v it_o and_o for_o that_o you_o have_v many_o in_o my_o praelection_n of_o perseverance_n and_o confirmation_n thereof_o among_o the_o act_n there_o yet_o some_o i_o will_v brief_o remember_v augustine_n
