to_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o salvation_n or_o to_o resist_v it_o and_o in_o this_o opinion_n the_o will_n itself_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o receive_v salvation_n and_o grace_n do_v not_o

further_o some_o do_v not_o only_o put_v freewill_n where_o there_o be_v a_o state_n grace_n but_o even_o there_o where_o be_v only_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n and_o unregeneration_n and_o to_o this_o end_n they_o pervert_v the_o place_n of_o paul_n to_o will_n be_v ready_a with_o i_o but_o there_o want_v power_n to_o effect_v it_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o load_n and_o chain_n of_o sin_n

certain_o and_o effectual_o one_o way_n these_o i_o think_v be_v pertinent_a to_o disprove_v the_o suppose_a freedom_n of_o will_n which_o rather_o move_v grace_n then_o be_v move_v by_o grace_n they_o disprove_v the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o will_n over_o grace_n and_o do_v prove_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n in_o grace_n on_o the_o will_n again_o those_o place_n which_o show_v the_o power_n dominion_n and_o tyranny_n of_o lust_n and_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n on_o the_o will_n they_o be_v also_o pertinent_a to_o disprove_v the_o same_o suppose_a freedom_n of_o will_n for_o they_o show_v the_o mighty_a and_o effectual_a power_n of_o sin_n on_o the_o will_n in_o the_o captivity_n of_o the_o will_n under_o the_o law_n of_o sin_n for_o where_o there_o be_v a_o captivity_n there_o can_v be_v this_o imaginary_a freedom_n again_o this_o very_a captivity_n of_o the_o will_n under_o concupiscence_n necessary_o infer_v a_o subjection_n of_o the_o will_n in_o regeneration_n under_o
