that_o very_a estate_n wherein_o what_o person_n or_o person_n of_o man_n soever_o shall_v at_o any_o time_n be_v find_v god_n in_o his_o eternal_a counsel_n judge_v it_o meet_v to_o confer_v the_o

to_o choose_v we_o personal_o consider_v with_o christ_n or_o in_o the_o same_o act_n of_o election_n wherein_o or_o wherewith_o christ_n be_v choose_v or_o the_o like_a but_o to_o intend_v purpose_n or_o decree_v to_o choose_v we_o as_o be_v or_o when_o we_o shall_v be_v in_o christ_n by_o believe_v have_v once_o obtain_v this_o be_v a_o be_v in_o christ_n by_o faith_n we_o may_v true_o and_o in_o good_a propriety_n of_o speak_v be_v say_v to_o be_v choose_v by_o mean_n or_o by_o virtue_n of_o that_o purpose_n or_o decree_n of_o election_n which_o be_v in_o god_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n whereby_o he_o decree_v to_o choose_v all_o those_o unto_o salvation_n how_o many_o or_o how_o few_o soever_o they_o shall_v prove_v who_o shall_v at_o any_o time_n

infirmity_n heb._n 7._o 28._o in_o like_a manner_n that_o law_n purpose_n or_o decree_n of_o election_n wherein_o and_o whereby_o god_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n determine_v to_o choose_v all_o those_o that_o shall_v believe_v in_o christ_n may_v be_v say_v to_o make_v all_o those_o elect_n or_o choose_v who_o do_v thus_o believe_v yea_o and_o god_n himself_o by_o mean_n of_o this_o his_o purpose_n or_o decree_n may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v elect_v or_o choose_v all_o those_o who_o do_v at_o any_o time_n believe_v from_o before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n thus_o we_o have_v do_v with_o our_o second_o argument_n wherein_o we_o have_v fair_o and_o clear_o prove_v 1._o that_o christ_n need_v not_o to_o die_v at_o all_o for_o the_o elect_n in_o the_o common_a notion_n of_o the_o word_n elect._n 2._o that_o he_o do_v not_o die_v for_o the_o elect_a only_o in_o any_o sense_n or_o notion_n of_o the_o say_a word_n whatsoever_o and_o consequent_o that_o he_o die_v for_o all_o men._n a_o three_o demonstration_n of_o the_o point_n be_v this_o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o 3._o §._o 6._o argum._n 3._o man_n then_o be_v not_o all_o man_n bind_v to_o believe_v in_o he_o or_o on_o he_o for_o salvation_n or_o as_o a_o saviour_n but_o all_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o believe_v on_o he_o for_o salvation_n ergo._n the_o reason_n of_o the_o major_a proposition_n be_v clear_o this_o no_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o lay_v out_o his_o silver_n for_o that_o which_o be_v not_o bread_n nor_o to_o stay_v himself_o with_o any_o confidence_n or_o assurance_n upon_o any_o person_n whatsoever_o for_o help_v or_o succour_v in_o any_o kind_n concern_v who_o he_o know_v not_o whether_o he_o have_v wherewith_o to_o help_v he_o or_o no._n therefore_o except_o all_o man_n have_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v redemption_n and_o salvation_n for_o they_o in_o jesus_n christ_n they_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o believe_v on_o he_o as_o a_o saviour_n or_o to_o depend_v upon_o he_o for_o salvation_n and_o if_o man_n have_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v redemption_n and_o salvation_n for_o they_o in_o christ_n and_o that_o if_o they_o come_v unto_o he_o for_o it_o they_o shall_v partake_v of_o it_o then_o must_v it_o need_v be_v a_o truth_n that_o he_o have_v these_o thing_n for_o they_o indeed_o and_o consequent_o that_o he_o die_v for_o they_o because_o no_o man_n can_v have_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o believe_v that_o which_o be_v not_o or_o that_o which_o be_v false_a this_o proposition_n be_v so_o plain_a so_o obvious_a to_o every_o man_n capacity_n and_o understanding_n yea_o to_o common_a sense_n itself_o that_o i_o can_v well_o suspect_v the_o least_o question_n or_o doubt_v in_o any_o about_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n then_o be_v not_o all_o man_n bind_v to_o believe_v on_o he_o for_o salvation_n notwithstanding_o if_o any_o shall_v object_v and_o say_v it_o be_v true_a if_o christ_n die_v not_o sufficient_o for_o all_o man_n all_o man_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o believe_v in_o he_o for_o salvation_n but_o we_o grant_v that_o in_o this_o sense_n viz._n sufficient_o he_o do_v die_v for_o all_o men._n and_o this_o be_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o oblige_v all_o man_n to_o believe_v on_o he_o for_o salvation_n though_o he_o die_v not_o intentional_o for_o they_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o by_o demand_v what_o man_n mean_v in_o say_v that_o christ_n die_v sufficient_o for_o all_o man_n in_o opposition_n to_o his_o die_a intentional_o for_o they_o if_o they_o say_v they_o mean_v that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n simple_o and_o in_o itself_o consider_v be_v or_o be_v sufficient_a to_o redeem_v and_o save_v all_o man_n as_o well_o as_o those_o who_o be_v redeem_v and_o save_v by_o it_o but_o be_v not_o intend_v by_o god_n or_o by_o christ_n for_o any_o such_o end_n or_o purpose_n as_o the_o redemption_n of_o all_o i_o answer_v if_o so_o then_o be_v that_o redundancy_n or_o overplus_n of_o merit_n or_o atonement_n in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n which_o remain_v over_o and_o above_o what_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o redemption_n of_o those_o for_o who_o it_o be_v intend_v and_o who_o be_v actual_o redeem_v by_o it_o suffer_v by_o god_n to_o run_v to_o waste_v and_o to_o be_v like_o water_n spill_v upon_o the_o ground_n and_o if_o so_o then_o be_v there_o but_o a_o very_a small_a quantity_n or_o proportion_n of_o the_o worth_n and_o value_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n intend_v by_o god_n for_o use_n or_o to_o do_v either_o himself_o or_o his_o creature_n any_o service_n in_o comparison_n of_o what_o vanish_v into_o the_o air_n and_o be_v throw_v behind_o his_o back_n as_o good_a for_o nothing_o for_o if_o there_o be_v a_o sufficiency_n in_o it_o for_o all_o those_o who_o be_v not_o redeem_v by_o it_o these_o be_v a_o far_o great_a number_n than_o those_o who_o be_v or_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v actual_o redeem_v by_o it_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o if_o that_o proportion_n of_o it_o which_o be_v sufficient_a for_o they_o be_v not_o design_v or_o intend_v by_o god_n for_o they_o that_o far_o the_o great_a part_n of_o it_o be_v design_v by_o he_o unto_o vanity_n and_o to_o no_o more_o honour_n then_o that_o which_o be_v not_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o they_o that_o deny_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o all_o man_n intentional_o and_o yet_o grant_v it_o sufficient_o count_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o covenant_n at_o least_o the_o far_o great_a part_n of_o it_o as_o a_o unholy_a thing_n as_o that_o which_o be_v consecrate_v to_o no_o holy_a use_n end_n or_o purpose_n yea_o and_o that_o which_o be_v yet_o worse_o make_v god_n himself_o and_o jesus_n christ_n the_o drawer_n or_o maker_n up_o of_o this_o account_n to_o their_o hand_n if_o they_o reply_v and_o say_v that_o that_o remainder_n of_o the_o value_n and_o price_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n though_o it_o be_v not_o intend_v by_o god_n for_o the_o salvation_n of_o those_o who_o be_v not_o actual_o redeem_v by_o he_o yet_o it_o be_v intend_v for_o their_o condemnation_n and_o so_o not_o lose_v i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v yet_o worse_o and_o more_o unreasonable_a than_o the_o other_o for_o 1._o may_v not_o man_n as_o reasonable_o say_v that_o god_n make_v the_o sun_n and_o put_v he_o into_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o firmament_n of_o heaven_n to_o bring_v night_n and_o darkness_n upon_o the_o world_n as_o that_o he_o give_v his_o son_n
