the_o one_o do_v ever_o save_o believe_v and_o repent_v or_o be_v true_o convert_v till_o he_o have_v the_o other_o also_o there_o be_v no_o hurt_n in_o it_o but_o i_o see_v no_o need_n of_o it_o what_o need_n be_v there_o of_o grace_n only_o to_o bring_v we_o power_n which_o we_o have_v already_o there_o be_v no_o man_n shall_v be_v condemn_v for_o he_o can_v but_o he_o will_v not_o every_o man_n then_o must_v have_v power_n a_o man_n have_v his_o faculty_n his_o understanding_n his_o will_n and_o his_o executive_a power_n the_o object_n be_v propose_v his_o duty_n know_v there_o be_v nothing_o to_o hinder_v he_o may_v act_v if_o he_o will_n the_o scripture_n indeed_o speak_v of_o a_o can_v that_o we_o can_v do_v nothing_o that_o we_o be_v dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o the_o like_a but_o all_o these_o expression_n put_v together_o come_v to_o this_o to_o wit_n such_o a_o indisposition_n on_o the_o soul_n as_o that_o a_o man_n certain_o never_o will_v of_o himself_o this_o be_v the_o scripture_n can_v true_o define_v see_v mediocria_fw-la in_o the_o paper_n of_o election_n which_o otherwhere_o therefore_o be_v ordinary_o call_v a_o will_n not_o you_o will_v not_o come_v to_o i_o that_o you_o may_v have_v life_n there_o be_v natural_a power_n still_o where_o yet_o there_o be_v moral_a impotency_n as_o other_o have_v it_o and_o it_o be_v no_o absurd_a thing_n i_o hope_v to_o say_v a_o man_n can_v do_v what_o he_o can_v that_o be_v he_o can_v do_v what_o he_o have_v natural_a power_n to_o do_v here_o than_o i_o will_v stick_v power_n be_v of_o nature_n i_o say_v it_o before_o but_o to_o exert_v that_o power_n into_o act_n be_v of_o grace_n power_n be_v of_o nature_n but_o to_o will_n and_o to_o do_v be_v of_o god_n there_o be_v no_o people_n but_o have_v the_o

this_o to_o the_o pelagian_a to_o the_o school_n to_o the_o arminian_n that_o every_o one_o may_v if_o they_o will_v the_o spirit_n say_v come_v and_o the_o bride_n say_v come_v and_o whosoever_o will_v let_v he_o come_v what_o 〈◊〉_d i_o say_v more_o whosoever_o will_v believe_v and_o repent_v may_v believe_v and_o repent_v whosoever_o will_v be_v save_v may_v be_v save_v this_o i_o say_v with_o they_o but_o i_o must_v then_o say_v again_o with_o the_o orthodox_n that_o if_o any_o will_n it_o be_v of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n if_o he_o will_v it_o be_v of_o god_n grace_n against_o pelagius_n no_o man_n come_v to_o i_o unless_o the_o father_n draw_v he_o if_o he_o will_v it_o be_v of_o god_n special_a grace_n against_o the_o arminian_n but_o you_o believe_v not_o because_o you_o be_v not_o of_o my_o sheep_n as_o many_o as_o be_v ordain_v to_o salvation_n believe_v in_o short_a then_o whosoever_o will_v may_v or_o can_v but_o no_o man_n will_v though_o he_o can_v without_o grace_n and_o this_o grace_n here_o be_v the_o decision_n of_o this_o great_a controversy_n and_o as_o for_o the_o arminian_n grace_n what_o good_a of_o that_o which_o if_o one_o have_v it_o not_o he_o shall_v have_v plead_v he_o can_v and_o be_v excuse_v but_o by_o have_v it_o he_o must_v be_v condemn_v in_o the_o last_o place_n see_v i_o perceive_v this_o gentleman_n be_v list_v for_o arminianism_n i_o care_v not_o if_o i_o tell_v he_o yet_o some_o more_o of_o my_o heart_n about_o it_o i_o be_o pretty_a sensible_a how_o thing_n hang_v together_o if_o god_n intend_v to_o give_v grace_n and_o salvation_n to_o a_o few_o particular_a person_n it_o be_v suitable_a that_o such_o only_a shall_v be_v redeem_v and_o if_o this_o grace_n be_v free_a as_o decree_v absolute_o to_o these_o it_o be_v suitable_a the_o will_n be_v not_o free_a so_o as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o choose_v or_o refuse_v it_o it_o be_v then_o agreeable_a that_o those_o be_v keep_v by_o the_o same_o almighty_a power_n to_o salvation_n here_o be_v the_o five_o point_n on_o one_o side_n on_o the_o other_o hand_n if_o a_o man_n that_o have_v grace_n be_v to_o take_v heed_n lest_o he_o fall_v it_o be_v suitable_a that_o grace_n be_v such_o as_o may_v be_v refuse_v at_o first_o as_o well_o as_o it_o may_v after_o be_v lose_v that_o the_o will_v consequent_o be_v free_a so_o as_o to_o cooperate_v with_o it_o or_o not_o that_o christ_n therefore_o have_v purchase_v but_o the_o same_o grace_n for_o one_o as_o well_o as_o another_o that_o election_n then_o be_v of_o such_o person_n as_o use_v their_o own_o liberty_n and_o god_n grace_n as_o they_o ought_v when_o those_o that_o do_v not_o be_v just_o reject_v and_o condemn_v i_o must_v declare_v now_o i_o find_v here_o no_o aversion_n in_o my_o mind_n against_o the_o last_o set_v of_o opinion_n but_o rather_o some_o disinclination_n to_o the_o former_a i_o feel_v my_o genius_n more_o afraid_a of_o a_o captivity_n by_o that_o we_o call_v orthodoxism_n than_o by_o any_o thing_n else_o which_o make_v i_o come_v with_o less_o prejudice_n to_o read_v vorstius_n than_o rutherford_n or_o twisse_n i_o have_v no_o preocupation_n therefore_o i_o be_o sure_a on_o my_o affection_n whatsoever_o i_o have_v on_o my_o judgement_n in_o these_o point_n nevertheless_o there_o be_v a_o chain_n lay_v on_o my_o soul_n from_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o hold_v it_o fast_o the_o chain_n consist_v of_o these_o link_n personal_a election_n regeneration_n and_o that_o few_o shall_v be_v save_v these_o three_o doctrine_n i_o must_v say_v be_v so_o concatenate_v in_o my_o mind_n one_o with_o another_o that_o so_o long_o as_o any_o one_o of_o they_o will_v hold_v it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o make_v any_o attempt_n to_o get_v loose_a from_o either_o of_o the_o other_o i_o can_v but_o confess_v many_o time_n they_o be_v grievous_a to_o my_o mind_n and_o i_o can_v wish_v they_o be_v otherwise_o but_o if_o they_o be_v the_o dictate_v of_o holy_a writ_n i_o must_v pray_v to_o god_n to_o forgive_v my_o reluctancy_n and_o submit_v to_o they_o i_o have_v have_v indeed_o sometime_o in_o my_o soul_n some_o other_o notion_n of_o election_n than_o be_v express_v ordinary_o by_o other_o i_o have_v look_v methinks_v on_o the_o deliberation_n of_o the_o almighty_a with_o his_o son_n from_o eternity_n to_o speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n to_o be_v how_o they_o shall_v be_v glorify_v most_o in_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n and_o there_o be_v two_o way_n to_o that_o end_n the_o way_n of_o work_n and_o the_o way_n of_o grace_n if_o man_n be_v make_v after_o god_n image_n do_v live_v according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o his_o creation_n and_o stand_v in_o that_o estate_n he_o must_v be_v happy_a and_o glorify_v his_o maker_n in_o a_o method_n of_o work_n but_o if_o he_o be_v leave_v to_o himself_o and_o fall_v and_o be_v recover_v by_o the_o rdemption_n of_o the_o son_n and_o then_o have_v a_o new_a law_n for_o his_o fall_a condition_n and_o continue_a help_n to_o live_v according_a to_o it_o then_o shall_v god_n glorify_v himself_o in_o man_n salvation_n by_o the_o method_n of_o his_o most_o wonderful_a grace_n now_o what_o if_o god_n election_n from_o eternity_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o this_o design_n that_o man_n salvation_n shall_v be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o grace_n and_o not_o of_o work_n he_o have_v choose_v we_o in_o he_o say_v the_o text_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v holy_a i_o put_v the_o emphasis_n on_o the_o word_n in_o he_o it_o be_v christ_n have_v procure_v the_o new_a law_n according_a to_o which_o we_o may_v be_v holy_a and_o accept_v when_o else_o we_o can_v not_o be_v holy_a by_o the_o law_n of_o our_o nature_n and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o by_o the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n which_o we_o have_v do_v or_o work_n by_o that_o law_n but_o by_o the_o renew_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o his_o assistance_n to_o perform_v the_o law_n of_o grace_n so_o that_o when_o it_o be_v say_v otherwhere_a not_o of_o work_n lest_o any_o shall_v boast_v it_o be_v add_v for_o we_o be_v his_o workmanship_n create_v in_o christ_n jesus_n to_o good_a work_n we_o be_v create_v at_o first_o to_o a_o law_n of_o righteousness_n but_o this_o be_v once_o break_v unless_o we_o have_v have_v a_o new_a law_n purchase_v by_o christ_n and_o a_o new_a creation_n through_o he_o we_o can_v not_o have_v be_v righteous_a any_o more_o so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o of_o work_n which_o be_v proper_o man_v own_o according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o his_o nature_n but_o of_o those_o which_o we_o be_v create_v to_o in_o christ_n jesus_n to_o wit_n those_o which_o be_v call_v the_o righteousness_n of_o
