i_o have_v stay_v the_o long_a upon_o the_o full_a recital_n of_o this_o parable_n because_o it_o prove_v full_o that_o which_o i_o intend_v to_o draw_v out_o of_o it_o first_o it_o be_v evident_a

suffer_v the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o church_n to_o be_v corrupt_v it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o set_v up_o preach_v and_o direct_v preacher_n to_o one_o place_n and_o not_o to_o another_o as_o we_o read_v act_v 16.6_o 7_o 9_o this_o then_o be_v one_o great_a grace_n to_o have_v the_o word_n of_o god_n preach_v to_o a_o people_n but_o when_o it_o be_v preach_v some_o understand_v it_o

away_o from_o grace_n speak_v at_o random_n the_o question_n be_v whether_o they_o that_o be_v according_a to_o god_n purpose_v predestinate_v call_v and_o justify_v may_v loose_v these_o grace_n of_o their_o predestination_n call_v and_o justification_n this_o the_o orthodox_n church_n have_v always_o deny_v the_o arminian_n who_o admit_v no_o other_o predestination_n but_o conditional_a affirm_v it_o and_o none_o but_o pelagian_n and_o arminian_n the_o arminian_n hold_v that_o man_n may_v be_v often_o predestinate_v often_o elect_v and_o in_o the_o end_n may_v loose_v all_o they_o labour_v to_o prove_v that_o all_o grace_n may_v be_v utter_o lose_v that_o the_o power_n of_o free_a will_n may_v be_v receive_v which_o then_o may_v show_v her_o power_n more_o full_o when_o there_o be_v no_o grace_n chap._n 6._o that_o perseverance_n to_o the_o end_n be_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n give_v to_o true_a believer_n flow_v from_o god_n purpose_n and_o predestination_n first_o i_o will_v produce_v reason_n to_o prove_v that_o perseverance_n in_o grace_n to_o the_o end_n be_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n give_v to_o true_a believer_n and_o then_o answer_v his_o objection_n to_o prove_v this_o the_o scripture_n be_v evident_a to_o such_o as_o read_v it_o with_o a_o single_a heart_n and_o vublemish_v eye_n first_o of_o all_o those_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n prove_v it_o we_o know_v that_o all_o thing_n work_v together_o for_o the_o best_a to_o they_o that_o love_n god_n even_o to_o they_o that_o be_v call_v according_a to_o his_o purpose_n for_o those_o who_o he_o know_v before_o he_o

these_o grace_n be_v derive_v the_o end_n be_v glorification_n from_o the_o beginning_n to_o the_o end_n be_v predestination_n call_v and_o justification_n the_o chain_n be_v so_o link_v together_o that_o it_o can_v be_v separate_v he_o that_o god_n purpose_v to_o predestinate_a must_v needs_o be_v predestinate_v he_o that_o be_v predestinate_v must_v needs_o be_v call_v he_o that_o be_v so_o

where_o god_n give_v these_o grace_n such_o a_o calling_n such_o a_o justification_n he_o give_v with_o all_o perseverance_n without_o which_o no_o man_n can_v come_v to_o this_o end_n the_o same_o be_v prove_v from_o the_o word_n of_o st._n john_n whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n sin_v not_o 3.9_o for_o his_o seed_n abide_v in_o he_o and_o he_o can_v sin_v because_o he_o be_v bear_v of_o

of_o such_o st._n john_n himself_o say_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o sin_n 1.8_o we_o deceive_v ourselves_o and_o the_o truth_n be_v not_o in_o we_o if_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n he_o be_v

regenerate_a man_n sin_v not_o yea_o can_v sin_n these_o contention_n of_o the_o arminian_n faction_n have_v teach_v we_o to_o reconcile_v these_o place_n for_o a_o man_n that_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n may_v sin_v that_o be_v fall_v into_o the_o sin_n of_o infirmity_n but_o yet_o he_o can_v not_o sin_n that_o be_v he_o can_v fall_v back_o into_o the_o service_n and_o dominion_n of_o sin_n

total_o and_o final_o the_o thing_n which_o i_o especial_o observe_v out_o of_o these_o word_n be_v that_o there_o be_v somewhat_o which_o be_v here_o call_v the_o seed_n of_o god_n abide_v in_o he_o

to_o be_v reserve_v for_o we_o in_o heaven_n and_o we_o be_v keep_v by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n through_o faith_n unto_o it_o if_o we_o be_v keep_v for_o it_o by_o god_n power_n through_o faith_n and_o it_o be_v keep_v for_o we_o then_o he_o that_o deny_v perseverance_n unto_o the_o end_n must_v break_v this_o power_n of_o god_n by_o which_o we_o be_v preserve_v to_o the_o end_n for_o what_o be_v this_o power_n of_o god_n that_o keep_v we_o through_o faith_n to_o the_o end_n but_o the_o grace_n of_o perseverance_n to_o the_o end_n the_o same_o doctrine_n of_o perseverance_n or_o of_o our_o preservation_n by_o god_n power_n to_o the_o end_n be_v confirm_v unto_o we_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n and_o of_o charity_n of_o faith_n the_o lord_n say_v 5.24_o he_o that_o hear_v

of_o faith_n but_o this_o faith_n be_v not_o a_o historical_a faith_n nor_o a_o temporary_a faith_n for_o these_o do_v fade_v and_o have_v not_o this_o promise_n which_o this_o faith_n have_v of_o which_o the_o lord_n speak_v then_o what_o faith_n can_v this_o be_v but_o such_o a_o justify_n faith_n that_o proceed_v from_o the_o call_v of_o god_n according_a to_o his_o purpose_n the_o lord_n say_v that_o he_o who_o thus_o believe_v have_v everlasting_a life_n if_o he_o have_v everlasting_a life_n than_o what_o arminian_n or_o pelagian_a can_v take_v this_o from_o he_o that_o christ_n say_v he_o have_v some_o may_v answer_v that_o when_o it_o be_v say_v he_o have_v it_o it_o may_v be_v understand_v he_o shall_v have_v it_o i_o stand_v not_o much_o upon_o that_o for_o whether_o the_o lord_n that_o give_v everlasting_a life_n say_v he_o have_v it_o or_o he_o shall_v have_v it_o be_v not_o much_o differ_v but_o yet_o i_o can_v but_o observe_v the_o lord_n speech_n who_o know_v best_o how_o to_o speak_v when_o he_o say_v he_o have_v it_o his_o meaning_n be_v that_o everlasting_a life_n shall_v be_v as_o firm_o and_o true_o give_v to_o he_o as_o if_o he_o have_v it_o already_o in_o possession_n which_o yet_o he_o hold_v but_o in_o hope_n now_o which_o of_o all_o the_o pelagian_n dare_v say_v that_o perhaps_o he_o may_v have_v it_o and_o perhaps_o he_o may_v loose_v it_o or_o that_o he_o may_v fall_v total_o or_o final_o from_o it_o when_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o have_v it_o he_o can_v have_v say_v he_o shall_v have_v it_o but_o why_o do_v he_o say_v he_o have_v it_o but_o only_o to_o teach_v we_o that_o true_a believer_n have_v such_o a_o grace_n here_o which_o can_v not_o be_v lose_v the_o lord_n say_v also_o of_o the_o man_n that_o have_v this_o grace_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o come_v into_o condemnation_n but_o be_v pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n what_o be_v that_o be_v pass_v but_o to_o make_v this_o doctrine_n sure_a that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o grace_n give_v here_o which_o can_v be_v lose_v let_v the_o pelagian_n wrangle_v as_o they_o will_v about_o loss_n of_o grace_n this_o may_v be_v sufficient_a for_o we_o to_o rest_v in_o the_o plain_a and_o evident_a word_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o master_n christ_n jesus_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n carry_v with_o it_o undoubted_o the_o grace_n of_o perseverance_n unto_o the_o end_n the_o same_o may_v be_v confirm_v from_o charity_n i_o mean_v such_o charity_n whereby_o such_o a_o faith_n work_v as_o be_v last_o describe_v of_o charity_n the_o apostle_n have_v these_o word_n charity_n never_o fail_v though_o prophecy_n fail_v and_o tongue_n shall_v cease_v and_o knowledge_n shall_v vanish_v away_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v here_o say_v

charity_n never_o fail_v therefore_o it_o abide_v for_o ever_o therefore_o there_o be_v grace_n wherein_o true_a believer_n persevere_v to_o the_o end_n hereupon_o some_o schoolman_n say_v that_o
