A86420	Fourteen queries and ten absurdities about the extent of Christ's death, the power of the creatures, the justice of God in condemning some, and saving others, presented by a free-willer to the Church of Christ at Newcastle, and answered by Paul Hobson a member of the said Church. In which answer is discovered, the extent of Christs death, the nature and truth of election, the condition of the creature both before and after conversion, &c. Published in tenderness of love for the good of all, especially for the Churches of Christ.	Hobson, Paul.	1655 (1655)	Wing H2273; Thomason E1492_4; ESTC R208520	40,720	127

of_o your_o second_o absurdity_n answer_v this_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v the_o reading_z of_o either_o be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v a_o gracious_a heart_n to_o blush_v it_o be_v a_o language_n the_o

or_o tread_v under_o foot_n the_o blood_n of_o the_o covenant_n by_o which_o they_o be_v sanctify_v answer_n though_o i_o have_v answer_v this_o full_o yet_o mind_n that_o the_o outward_a tender_n of_o christ_n as_o we_o have_v prove_v exclude_v none_o that_o by_o it_o the_o choose_v of_o god_n may_v be_v call_v out_o of_o the_o world_n through_o grace_n to_o believe_v and_o shall_v the_o

your_o misapprehend_v that_o scripture_n have_v full_o answer_v in_o one_o of_o your_o mistake_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o your_o stumble_n absurdity_n 5._o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o satan_n in_o persuade_v people_n christ_n die_v not_o for_o they_o do_v no_o evil_a your_o absurdity_n be_v very_o sad_a and_o you_o can_v have_v the_o least_o face_n to_o retort_v that_o upon_o we_o unless_o you_o can_v prove_v that_o infidelity_n in_o itself_o be_v no_o sin_n and_o second_o that_o the_o devil_n know_v exact_o who_o it_o be_v that_o god_n design_n for_o heaven_n which_o secret_a

every_o man_n and_o to_o deny_v it_o be_v heresy_n but_o if_o you_o mean_v die_v for_o every_o man_n alike_o that_o scripture_n do_v not_o prove_v it_o yet_o for_o any_o man_n to_o make_v a_o particular_a application_n to_o this_o or_o that_o man_n say_v christ_n die_v not_o for_o he_o in_o particular_a that_o way_n be_v unwarrantable_a and_o contrary_a to_o truth_n for_o in_o the_o

there_o be_v some_o that_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o it_o be_v a_o error_n for_o they_o to_o believe_v he_o die_v for_o they_o i_o have_v answer_v this_o absurdity_n in_o the_o answer_v the_o former_a four_o it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o only_o you_o love_v to_o make_v repetition_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n absurdity_n 8._o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n than_o some_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v not_o do_v believe_v a_o truth_n in_o believe_v christ_n die_v not_o for_o they_o which_o say_v you_o be_v blasphemy_n to_o affirm_v answer_n there_o be_v no_o ground_n for_o such_o a_o absurdity_n unless_o you_o can_v prove_v these_o three_o thing_n 1._o that_o we_o hold_v that_o christ_n die_v in_o no_o sense_n for_o some_o which_o we_o deny_v 2._o that_o man_n may_v know_v reprobation_n or_o election_n exact_o before_o it_o be_v discover_v 3._o that_o man_n may_v true_o believe_v and_o yet_o be_v damn_v absurdity_n 9_o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n than_o some_o shall_v be_v damn_v in_o hell_n for_o not_o believe_v that_o which_o be_v not_o truth_n absurdity_n 10._o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n their_o damnation_n be_v not_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o their_o not_o believe_v but_o to_o christ_n not_o die_v i_o have_v answer_v these_o two_o absurdity_n so_o full_o that_o it_o will_v be_v but_o a_o vain_a repetition_n to_o say_v any_o more_o for_o i_o have_v clear_o show_v what_o be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o damnation_n and_o how_o just_a god_n be_v in_o do_v of_o it_o not_o condemn_v the_o creature_n for_o his_o neglect_n in_o the_o exercise_v that_o power_n which_o he_o have_v not_o but_o the_o exercise_v of_o a_o power_n of_o darkness_n which_o he_o have_v which_o if_o you_o read_v over_o you_o will_v see_v these_o two_o absurdity_n with_o the_o rest_n not_o only_o to_o be_v without_o foundation_n but_o will_v produce_v sad_a reflection_n upon_o your_o own_o spirit_n if_o you_o look_v upon_o they_o through_o the_o rule_n of_o truth_n and_o do_v not_o suffer_v god_n and_o his_o action_n to_o be_v bring_v under_o the_o dispute_n and_o control_v of_o your_o low_a reason_n so_o have_v speak_v brief_o to_o your_o query_n and_o absurdity_n from_o what_o in_o general_a i_o do_v before_o declare_v i_o shall_v now_o draw_v up_o a_o few_o absurdity_n which_o of_o necessity_n must_v flow_v from_o your_o opinion_n and_o so_o commit_v you_o to_o god_n the_o absurdity_n be_v 1._o you_o deny_v the_o prerogative_n of_o god_n will_n as_o if_o he_o have_v not_o power_n to_o do_v with_o his_o own_o

of_o man_n ability_n which_o all_o enjoy_v from_o god_n before_o conversion_n 4._o you_o lay_v injustice_n upon_o god_n when_o as_o you_o say_v christ_n die_v to_o satisfy_v full_o for_o all_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o man_n and_o yet_o you_o say_v all_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v save_v and_o whereas_o you_o in_o your_o second_o query_n say_v how_o can_v god_n be_v just_a to_o condemn_v they_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v not_o it_o may_v with_o more_o ground_n be_v question_v how_o it_o be_v just_a to_o condemn_v they_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v i_o mean_v die_v in_o that_o sense_n you_o speak_v of_o 5._o you_o change_v the_o nature_n of_o cause_n and_o set_v the_o effect_n before_o the_o cause_n when_o you_o say_v faith_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o election_n and_o consequent_o the_o cause_n of_o god_n special_a or_o singular_a lou●●●●en_n ●●●en_z his_o love_n be_v in_o himself_o nay_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o 1_o john_n 4.8_o that_o be_v himself_o therefore_o you_o may_v as_o well_o say_v faith_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o god_n the_o lord_n make_v your_o soul_n sensible_a of_o the_o sadness_n of_o this_o opinion_n 6._o you_o do_v by_o your_o opinion_n what_o in_o you_o lie_v to_o
