A10194 The perpetuitie of a regenerate mans estate VVherein it is manifestly proued by sundry arguments, reasons and authorities. That such as are once truly regenerated and ingrafted into Christ by a liuely faith, can neither finally nor totally fall from grace. It is also proued, that this hath beene the receiued and resolued doctrine, of all the ancient fathers, of all the Protestant churches and writers beyond the seas, and of the Church of England. All the principall arguments that are, or may be obiected against it, either from Scripture, or from reason, are here likewise cleared and answered. By William Prynne Gent: Lincolniensis.

not_o give_v a_o efficacy_n and_o strength_n to_o grace_v of_o themselves_o but_o it_o be_v grace_n that_o give_v the_o efficacy_n and_o virtue_n unto_o they_o for_o where_o there_o be_v no_o grace_n

of_o grace_n through_o the_o blessing_n and_o assistance_n of_o the_o god_n of_o grace_n and_o holy_a duty_n give_v not_o a_o be_v or_o a_o essence_n to_o the_o habit_n and_o seed_n of_o grace_n but_o grace_n give_v a_o essence_n and_o a_o be_v unto_o they_o so_o that_o they_o do_v not_o preserve_v grace_n but_o grace_v they_o true_a it_o be_v that_o grace_n without_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n be_v dead_a even_o as_o a_o tree_n that_o bear_v no_o leaf_n nor_o fruit_n be_v dead_a but_o yet_o those_o work_n and_o fruit_n of_o grace_n and_o this_o use_n of_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n do_v not_o so_o much_o preserve_v and_o nourish_v grace_n as_o grace_n do_v preserve_v and_o nourish_v they_o even_o as_o the_o fruit_n and_o leaf_n give_v not_o a_o be_v and_o preservation_n to_o the_o tree_n but_o the_o tree_n give_v a_o be_v and_o a_o preservation_n unto_o they_o and_o therefore_o see_v the_o efficacy_n and_o use_n of_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n do_v depend_v more_o upon_o grace_n than_o
