Between Mr. Danson of the one party, and Mr. Ives on the other, upon this question (viz) whether the doctrine of some true believers, falling away totally and finally from grace, be true or no?

you_o believe_v the_o pharisee_n say_v true_a of_o himself_o and_o do_v you_o believe_v they_o be_v all_o so_o mr._n danson_n the_o scripture_n itself_o say_v so_o mr._n ives_n christ_n himself_o say_v indeed_o that_o they_o be_v outward_o righteous_a that_o be_v they_o be_v devout_a in_o some_o ceremony_n of_o their_o religion_n and_o it_o also_o express_o tell_v we_o that_o they_o be_v full_a of_o wickedness_n and_o that_o it_o appear_v outward_o for_o it_o say_v they_o neglect_v justice_n mercy_n and_o faith_n therefore_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v whether_o a_o man_n can_v be_v free_a from_o the_o gross_a pollution_n of_o the_o world_n that_o be_v neither_o just_a faithful_a nor_o merciful_a beside_o this_o do_v not_o reach_v the_o case_n for_o you_o be_v to_o show_v or_o give_v a_o instance_n of_o one_o that_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n and_o yet_o that_o it_o be_v say_v of_o he_o that_o he_o have_v clean_o escape_v from_o such_o as_o live_v in_o error_n mr._n danson_n what_o they_o do_v as_o to_o those_o act_n they_o do_v with_o such_o cunning_a that_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v visible_a to_o the_o world_n for_o we_o can_v suppose_v that_o christ_n will_v affirm_v that_o those_o person_n do_v appear_v outward_o righteous_a unto_o the_o world_n that_o be_v open_o guilty_a of_o such_o miscarriage_n mr._n ives_n i_o say_v these_o man_n in_o 2_o pet._n 2._o have_v clean_o escape_v from_o those_o that_o live_v in_o error_n now_o hypocrisy_n be_v the_o great_a and_o most_o damnable_a error_n in_o the_o world_n and_o how_o can_v a_o man_n live_v in_o a_o damnable_a error_n who_o yet_o have_v clean_o escape_v the_o pollution_n of_o the_o world_n mr._n danson_n not_o at_o the_o same_o time_n he_o can_v be_v clear_a from_o adultery_n and_o yet_o guilty_a of_o it_o nor_o from_o hypocrisy_n and_o yet_o be_v guilty_a of_o it_o but_o he_o may_v at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v free_a from_o the_o gross_a act_n of_o sin_n so_o that_o they_o may_v not_o come_v into_o the_o view_n of_o the_o world_n mr._n ives_n how_o can_v the_o latter_a end_n of_o that_o man_n be_v worse_o than_o his_o beginning_n for_o when_o he_o fall_v away_o if_o what_o he_o fall_v from_o be_v his_o gross_a and_o damnable_a hypocrisy_n his_o latter_a end_n be_v not_o nay_o can_v be_v worse_a than_o his_o beginning_n for_o christ_n make_v hypocrite_n portion_n in_o hell_n the_o great_a of_o all_o and_o make_v their_o punishment_n the_o measure_n and_o standard_n hy_z which_o he_o will_v judge_v other_o and_o if_o open_a and_o profane_a person_n shall_v have_v their_o portion_n with_o hypocrite_n then_o sure_o it_o can_v make_v a_o hypocrite_n latter_a end_n worse_o than_o his_o beginning_n if_o at_o first_o he_o be_v but_o a_o hypocrite_n and_o devour_v widow_n house_n under_o the_o guise_n of_o religion_n it_o can_v i_o say_v be_v worse_o with_o he_o in_o the_o end_n if_o he_o put_v off_o this_o guise_n and_o appear_v open_o profane_a mr_n danson_n chief_o upon_o this_o ground_n it_o may_v because_o his_o fall_v away_o from_o that_o outward_a cleanness_n by_o which_o religion_n do_v gain_v some_o kind_n of_o reputation_n by_o his_o outward_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n that_o same_o do_v make_v his_o condition_n worse_o than_o it_o be_v before_o because_o god_n be_v more_o dishonour_v mr._n ives_n this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o the_o argument_n that_o have_v be_v urge_v that_o if_o man_n that_o have_v clean_o escape_v the_o pollution_n of_o the_o world_n may_v fall_v away_o then_o true_a believer_n may_v because_o this_o phrase_n be_v general_a and_o applycable_a to_o none_o else_o mr._n danson_n answer_v by_o distinguish_v of_o clean_a escape_n hesaith_o there_o be_v a_o clean_a escape_n of_o gross_a sin_n that_o hypocrite_n escape_v and_o yet_o all_o the_o while_o they_o may_v not_o be_v true_a believer_n now_o i_o find_v no_o such_o character_n give_v to_o hypocrite_n in_o all_o the_o scripture_n and_o i_o leave_v you_o to_o judge_v mr._n danson_n i_o instance_n in_o st._n paul_n m._n ives_n that_o be_v not_o to_o your_o purpose_n yet_o however_o i_o say_v st._n paul_n be_v no_o hypocrite_n mr._n danson_n i_o say_v he_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n mr._n ives_n prove_v st._n paul_n a_o hypocrite_n i_o be_o sure_a he_o never_o tell_v we_o so_o show_v i_o where_o he_o live_v ungodly_a or_o unjust_o why_o do_v you_o say_v he_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n mr._n danson_n the_o scripture_n tell_v i_o he_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n mr._n ives_n prove_v it_o then_o where_o be_v that_o scripture_n that_o tell_v you_o so_o mr._n danson_n thus_o i_o prove_v it_o the_o scripture_n say_v in_o rom._n 9.31_o 32._o but_o israel_n which_o follow_v after_o the_o law_n of_o righteousness_n have_v not_o attain_v to_o the_o law_n of_o righteousness_n wherefore_o because_o they_o seek_v it_o not_o by_o faith_n but_o as_o it_o be_v by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n for_o they_o stumble_v at_o that_o stumble_a stone_n and_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o jew_n general_o do_v seek_v to_o be_v save_v by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n mr._n ives_n st._n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o live_v in_o all_o good_a conscience_n during_o his_o state_n of_o judaisme_n and_o he_o thank_v god_n he_o obtain_v mercy_n because_o he_o do_v it_o ignorant_o and_o how_o can_v he_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n that_o do_v what_o he_o do_v out_o of_o a_o sincere_a and_o honest_a mind_n and_o when_o he_o persecute_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v one_o of_o the_o worst_a thing_n that_o be_v say_v of_o he_o yet_o he_o tell_v we_o after_o his_o conversion_n if_o we_o will_v believe_v he_o that_o he_o very_o think_v within_o himself_o that_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v many_o thing_n contrary_a to_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n act_n 26.9_o 10_o 11._o verse_n mr._n danson_n this_o be_v strange_a that_o you_o do_v not_o understand_v that_o paul_n be_v a_o hypocrite_n mr._n ives_n i_o do_v not_o understand_v it_o mr._n danson_n there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o hypocrite_n one_o that_o appear_v design_o to_o deceive_v the_o world_n in_o that_o grace_n which_o be_v indeed_o want_v in_o the_o person_n and_o then_o the_o other_o be_v those_o person_n that_o deceive_v themselves_o as_o well_o as_o other_o mr._n ives_n if_o this_o be_v a_o good_a argument_n against_o st._n paul_n cornelius_n be_v a_o hypocrite_n too_o mr._n danson_n that_o do_v not_o follow_v mr._n ives_n yes_o it_o do_v but_o pray_v show_v i_o where_o paul_n do_v before_o his_o conversion_n understand_v any_o thing_n of_o himself_o or_o appear_v to_o any_o body_n else_o to_o be_v what_o he_o be_v not_o mr._n danson_n yes_o he_o be_v as_o touch_v the_o law_n blameless_a mr._n ives_n what_o be_v he_o a_o hypocrite_n notwithstanding_o he_o tell_v we_o of_o himself_o that_o he_o live_v in_o all_o good_a conscience_n show_v how_o this_o be_v consistent_a with_o hypocrisy_n mr._n danson_n if_o a_o man_n appear_v to_o have_v what_o he_o have_v not_o for_o the_o scripture_n use_v that_o expression_n from_o he_o that_o have_v not_o shall_v be_v take_v away_o that_o which_o he_o have_v paul_n have_v real_o what_o he_o have_v but_o that_o which_o he_o have_v be_v not_o real_o what_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v mr._n ives_n sir_n this_o be_v nothing_o to_o your_o purpose_n for_o it_o neither_o prove_v paul_n a_o hypocrite_n neither_o do_v it_o show_v that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v clean_o escape_v the_o pollution_n of_o this_o world_n and_o to_o have_v clean_o escape_v from_o such_o as_o live_v in_o error_n when_o at_o the_o same_o time_n he_o live_v in_o hypocrisy_n which_o be_v the_o great_a error_n and_o the_o most_o damnable_a pollution_n i_o shall_v therefore_o leave_v it_o to_o consideration_n and_o proceed_v to_o another_o argument_n the_o last_o argument_n that_o i_o shall_v urge_v i_o shall_v ground_v upon_o the_o case_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n 1_o cor._n 9.27_o but_o i_o keep_v under_o my_o body_n and_o bring_v it_o into_o subjection_n lest_o by_o any_o mean_n when_o i_o have_v preach_v to_o other_o i_o myself_o shall_v be_v a_o cast_v away_o whence_o i_o argue_v what_o paul_n use_v all_o diligence_n and_o labour_n to_o prevent_v the_o come_n to_o pass_v of_o may_v possible_o come_v to_o pass_v but_o paul_n use_v all_o labour_n and_o diligence_n to_o prevent_v his_o fall_n away_o total_o and_o final_o ergo_fw-la his_o fall_v away_o total_o and_o final_o be_v possible_a to_o come_v to_o pass_v mr._n danson_n i_o answer_v to_o the_o major_a that_o that_o which_o may_v possible_o come_v to_o pass_v in_o respect_n to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n there_o be_v a_o real_a danger_n and_o hazard_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n yet_o
