matter_n of_o election_n or_o nonelection_n the_o answer_n be_v oh_o man_n who_o be_v thou_o that_o dispute_a against_o god_n so_o that_o all_o these_o thing_n lay_v together_o and_o consider_v it_o seem_v to_o i_o clear_a that_o redemption_n be_v a_o universal_a cause_n as_o creation_n be_v and_o not_o a_o thing_n proper_a to_o the_o elect_a only_o as_o god_n election_n be_v and_o that_o on_o

not_o that_o in_o high_a pride_n to_o prefer_v your_o own_o understanding_n before_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n who_o indite_v the_o scripture_n shall_v not_o a_o humble_a man_n rather_o say_v doubtless_o both_o be_v true_a though_o i_o can_v reconcile_v they_o so_o other_o will_v deny_v these_o plain_a truth_n because_o they_o think_v that_o all_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o

then_o the_o certain_a truth_n and_o the_o plain_a text_n be_v the_o standard_n to_o the_o uncertain_a point_n and_o obscure_a text_n also_o divine_v general_o make_v it_o a_o rule_n for_o the_o

will_v tell_v i_o than_o we_o must_v say_v christ_n be_v a_o door_n a_o way_n a_o vine_n and_o the_o bread_n be_v his_o body_n etc._n etc._n but_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o what_o i_o be_o speak_v

of_o they_o to_o come_v to_o god_n what_o will_v not_o the_o lust_n of_o contradict_v persuade_v man_n to_o now_o i_o will_v know_v of_o any_o man_n will_v you_o believe_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o

there_o use_v be_v it_o not_o enough_o that_o christ_n be_v call_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n you_o will_v say_v but_o be_v it_o of_o the_o whole_a world_n yes_o it_o say_v he_o be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n will_v you_o say_v but_o it_o be_v not_o for_o all_o man_n in_o the_o world_n yes_o it_o say_v he_o die_v for_o all_o man_n as_o well_o as_o for_o all_o the_o world_n but_o will_v you_o say_v it_o say_v not_o for_o every_o man_n yes_o that_o it_o do_v he_o taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n but_o you_o may_v say_v it_o mean_v all_o the_o elect_n if_o it_o say_v so_o of_o any_o non-elect_a i_o will_v believe_v yes_o it_o speak_v of_o those_o that_o deny_v the_o lord_n that_o buy_v they_o and_o bring_v upon_o themselves_o swift_a destruction_n and_o yet_o all_o this_o seem_v nothing_o to_o man_n prejudice_v 3._o furthermore_o it_o deserve_v consideration_n whether_o man_n can_v considerate_o go_v against_o the_o plain_a light_n of_o so_o many_o express_a text_n of_o scripture_n without_o some_o reluctancy_n and_o regret_n of_o judgement_n and_o then_o whether_o use_v a_o man_n judgement_n to_o such_o a_o course_n to_o bear_v down_o the_o evidence_n of_o of_o many_o express_a text_n of_o scripture_n be_v not_o a_o matter_n of_o a_o dangerous_a nature_n both_o symptomatical_o and_o effectual_o do_v it_o not_o signify_v a_o defect_n in_o our_o belief_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o scripture_n or_o at_o least_o of_o our_o reverend_a esteem_n of_o it_o when_o we_o dare_v use_v it_o as_o a_o leaden_a rule_n and_o nose_n of_o wax_n as_o the_o papist_n presumptuous_o call_v it_o he_o that_o can_v think_v it_o will_v endure_v such_o bend_n be_v in_o danger_n of_o think_v it_o may_v endure_v break_v have_v it_o not_o too_o plain_a a_o tendency_n to_o infidelity_n and_o disobedience_n it_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o word_n that_o must_v preserve_v we_o from_o both_o and_o he_o that_o think_v so_o mean_o of_o the_o scripture_n as_o that_o it_o will_v patient_o endure_v such_o violence_n and_o stretch_v be_v in_o great_a danger_n of_o be_v draw_v to_o question_n whether_o it_o be_v god_n word_n or_o no_o and_o of_o venture_v over_o its_o bound_n in_o practical_o in_o case_n of_o temptation_n for_o what_o have_v we_o to_o persuade_v we_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o eternal_a god_n but_o plain_a scripture_n and_o be_v it_o plain_o in_o this_o than_o in_o its_o affirm_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o all_o tender_a conscionable_a christian_n shall_v be_v as_o fearful_a to_o adventure_v against_o the_o plain_a meaning_n of_o scripture_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o faith_n as_o to_o adventure_v against_o its_o plain_a precept_n and_o prohibition_n in_o matter_n of_o practice_n and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o when_o god_n say_v so_o express_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o and_o taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n and_o be_v the_o ranfom_n for_o all_o and_o the_o

the_o law_n of_o grace_n i_o will_v not_o stand_v now_o on_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o any_o further_a than_o to_o tell_v you_o 1._o that_o the_o same_o solid_a argument_n which_o prove_v the_o

the_o practice_n of_o godly_a man_n to_o humble_v themselves_o for_o their_o father_n sin_n yet_o understand_v i_o thus_o that_o though_o according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o work_n we_o be_v guilty_a of_o all_o our_o parent_n sin_n yet_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n promise_v that_o no_o man_n shall_v be_v destroy_v for_o they_o who_o disow_v they_o by_o true_a repentance_n and_o take_v a_o contrary_a
