many_o hundred_o of_o weak_a christian_n neither_o can_v nor_o dare_v say_v christ_n be_v i_o or_o christ_n die_v for_o i_o in_o particular_a 2._o i_o judge_v that_o this_o act_n or_o kind_n of_o faith_n be_v a_o consequent_a of_o justify_v faith_n and_o may_v safe_o and_o comfortable_o be_v conclude_v and_o collect_v by_o strong_a christian_n from_o it_o thus_o he_o that_o have_v justify_v faith_n christ_n be_v he_o and_o christ_n die_v for_o he_o but_o i_o in_o particular_a have_v justify_v faith_n for_o i_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o my_o faith_n be_v accompany_v with_o good_a work_n as_o sanctification_n and_o mortification_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o christ_n be_v i_o and_o christ_n die_v for_o i_o in_o particular_a so_o much_o for_o clear_v of_o my_o answer_n and_o so_o much_o also_o for_o answer_v to_o their_o argument_n by_o this_o time_n we_o have_v finish_v these_o thing_n propound_v to_o be_v handle_v first_o we_o have_v by_o sundry_a argument_n prove_v that_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n second_o we_o have_v answer_v all_o their_o text_n of_o scripture_n and_o their_o argument_n whereby_o they_o will_v prove_v the_o contrary_n now_o in_o the_o three_o place_n we_o confute_v a_o common_a answer_n of_o arminian_o which_o they_o give_v to_o a_o notable_a objection_n of_o we_o the_o confutation_n of_o a_o common_a answer_n of_o arminian_o which_o they_o give_v to_o a_o notable_a objection_n of_o we_o first_o i_o shall_v propound_v our_o objection_n second_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o the_o arminian_n answer_n and_o three_o i_o shall_v confute_v it_o in_o my_o reply_n objection_n if_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n and_o all_o other_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a man_n why_o be_v they_o not_o all_o save_v how_o can_v any_o be_v damn_v for_o who_o christ_n die_v for_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o they_o then_o have_v they_o suffer_v in_o this_o life_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n their_o surety_n the_o torment_n of_o the_o next_o life_n which_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n bear_v for_o they_o and_o in_o their_o room_n and_o place_n now_o god_n have_v punish_v judas_n and_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n on_o the_o cross_n in_o this_o life_n with_o the_o punishment_n due_a to_o the_o next_o life_n he_o can_v punish_v they_o again_o in_o the_o next_o life_n unless_o he_o be_v a_o unjust_a judge_n punish_v the_o same_o man_n for_o the_o same_o sin_n twice_o once_o in_o this_o life_n and_o once_o more_o in_o the_o next_o life_n and_o therefore_o judas_n and_o all_o other_o man_n must_v be_v save_v if_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o man_n answer_n hereunto_o dutch_n and_o english_a arminian_n both_o make_v this_o answer_n judas_n and_o the_o rest_n will_v not_o believe_v they_o refuse_v to_o believe_v in_o christ_n and_o so_o to_o apply_v he_o and_o therefore_o god_n may_v just_o damn_v they_o joh._n 3.18_o mark_n 16.16_o see_v their_o acta_fw-la synodalia_fw-la de_fw-la morte_fw-la christi_fw-la pag._n 320._o and_o this_o they_o endeavour_v to_o clear_v by_o some_o similitude_n if_o a_o physician_n tender_v a_o potion_n to_o a_o patient_a he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v blame_v if_o the_o patient_n will_v not_o receive_v it_o and_o apply_v it_o but_o the_o fault_n and_o blame_n be_v only_o in_o the_o patient_a so_o if_o god_n offer_v christ_n to_o judas_n and_o all_o other_o wicked_a man_n but_o they_o will_v not_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o apply_v he_o than_o the_o blame_n be_v they_o and_o so_o god_n be_v free_a of_o injustice_n though_o he_o damn_v they_o an_z other_z simile_z be_v this_o a_o king_n have_v many_o subject_n in_o captivity_n under_o a_o foreign_a king_n pay_v a_o full_a and_o sufficient_a ransom_n for_o every_o one_o of_o they_o now_o many_o of_o those_o captive_n despise_v their_o liberty_n and_o choose_v to_o live_v in_o captivity_n and_o bondage_n in_o this_o case_n there_o be_v no_o blame_n in_o the_o king_n but_o in_o the_o captive_n only_o so_o god_n and_o christ_n have_v ransom_v all_o man_n but_o many_o man_n despise_v this_o ransom_n by_o refuse_v to_o believe_v and_o so_o choose_v to_o live_v in_o captivity_n and_o thraldom_n still_o wherefore_o if_o god_n keep_v they_o under_o everlasting_a thraldom_n he_o be_v not_o unjust_a or_o unblamable_a but_o these_o despiser_n only_o be_v unblamable_a reply_n i_o shall_v first_o deal_v with_o their_o answer_n and_o then_o with_o their_o similitude_n i_o begin_v with_o their_o answer_n 1_o be_v it_o so_o that_o judas_n do_v not_o and_o will_v not_o believe_v but_o obstinate_o refuse_v to_o believe_v yet_o this_o free_v not_o god_n of_o injustice_n if_o he_o damn_v judas_n suppose_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n for_o clear_v of_o this_o i_o ask_v arminian_n whether_o christ_n die_v for_o man_n consider_v as_o believer_n or_o as_o sinner_n and_o unbeliever_n hereunto_o they_o will_v not_o say_v as_o believer_n for_o so_o they_o shall_v justify_v our_o doctrine_n which_o be_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o believer_n and_o for_o they_o only_o wherefore_o they_o must_v answer_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o man_n consider_v as_o sinner_n and_o without_o belief_n and_o so_o faith_n be_v no_o condition_n of_o impetration_n or_o of_o christ_n death_n and_o ransom_n pay_v for_o man_n now_o if_o christ_n impetrate_v and_o pay_v a_o ransom_n for_o man_n do_v it_o absolute_o and_o without_o any_o condition_n or_o consideration_n of_o faith_n in_o they_o then_o for_o application_n god_n the_o father_n can_v require_v faith_n in_o man_n before_o application_n or_o before_o he_o will_v apply_v christ_n his_o death_n unto_o they_o in_o justification_n unless_o they_o will_v absurd_o think_v that_o christ_n and_o god_n be_v not_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o mind_n but_o be_v at_o odds_o and_o difference_n in_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n as_o if_o christ_n shall_v buy_v and_o purchase_v we_o absolute_o without_o a_o condition_n but_o god_n shall_v sell_v we_o upon_o a_o condition_n so_o absurd_o they_o shall_v think_v the_o buyer_n and_o seller_n shall_v be_v at_o odds_o and_o not_o agree_v both_o upon_o the_o same_o term_n now_o since_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n without_o respect_n to_o faith_n in_o he_o than_o god_n can_v but_o justify_v and_o save_v judas_n without_o regard_n to_o faith_n in_o he_o then_o though_o judas_n do_v not_o believe_v and_o wilful_o refuse_v to_o believe_v yet_o god_n can_v in_o justice_n damn_v he_o for_o his_o not_o believe_v because_o when_o christ_n buy_v judas_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o god_n the_o father_n sell_v judas_n to_o christ_n there_o be_v no_o condition_n of_o faith_n intend_v betwixt_o they_o and_o therefore_o judas_n must_v be_v save_v if_o you_o say_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o judas_n than_o god_n can_v require_v faith_n of_o he_o so_o as_o he_o shall_v for_o his_o infidelity_n in_o justice_n damn_v &_o punish_v he_o in_o the_o next_o life_n god_n can_v be_v so_o unjust_a as_o to_o punish_v one_o man_n twice_o for_o his_o sin_n as_o once_o in_o christ_n his_o surety_n and_o once_o again_o in_o himself_o the_o principal_n one_o debt_n must_v not_o be_v twice_o pay_v wherefore_o to_o allege_v a_o reason_n from_o judas_n his_o unbelief_n why_o god_n may_v damn_v he_o in_o the_o next_o life_n be_v to_o allege_v a_o reason_n why_o god_n may_v deal_v unjust_o in_o the_o next_o life_n now_o what_o they_o shall_v say_v to_o this_o i_o can_v devise_v unless_o they_o will_v distinguish_v of_o judas_n his_o sin_n and_o so_o make_v a_o hotchpotch_n of_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n say_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o some_o of_o judas_n his_o sin_n but_o not_o for_o all_o as_o not_o for_o his_o unbelief_n and_o then_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n be_v make_v a_o half_a saviour_n or_o a_o partial_a saviour_n and_o christ_n die_v for_o some_o of_o judas_n his_o sin_n and_o judas_n die_v for_o other_o some_o of_o his_o sin_n and_o christ_n die_v for_o all_o judas_n his_o sin_n save_o that_o one_o of_o unbelief_n and_o judas_n be_v now_o in_o hell_n for_o no_o sin_n commit_v but_o suffer_v only_o for_o one_o sin_n namely_o his_o unbelief_n these_o be_v absurd_a and_o groundless_a fantasy_n never_o broach_v by_o any_o christian_a man_n unless_o arminian_n will_v be_v the_o first_o 2._o so_o say_v they_o contradict_v themselves_o for_o if_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o unbelief_n than_o he_o die_v not_o for_o all_o man_n for_o many_o man_n be_v unbeliever_n 2._o thes_n 3.2_o christ_n death_n be_v for_o believer_n or_o for_o unbeliever_n we_o say_v it_o be_v for_o believer_n ergo_fw-la they_o must_v hold_v that_o it_o be_v for_o unbeliever_n so_o much_o touch_v their_o answer_n and_o
the_o latter_a namely_o application_n be_v proper_a unto_o god_n the_o father_n furthermore_o they_o place_v faith_n between_o impetration_n and_o application_n so_o as_o though_o christ_n die_v and_o impetrate_v for_o all_o man_n yet_o god_n justify_v and_o make_v application_n of_o christ_n death_n unto_o believer_n only_o now_o the_o better_a to_o help_v on_o the_o matter_n they_o say_v that_o these_o be_v act_n of_o grace_n and_o favour_n god_n may_v according_a to_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n order_v they_o according_a to_o his_o most_o free_a will_n the_o which_o word_n as_o i_o take_v it_o be_v speak_v in_o relation_n to_o faith_n that_o god_n may_v place_v it_o before_o or_o after_o impetration_n as_o it_o please_v his_o wisdom_n have_v thus_o open_v their_o meaning_n i_o thus_o proceed_v as_o for_o this_o distinction_n of_o impetration_n and_o application_n i_o acknowledge_v it_o for_o as_o it_o be_v christ_n that_o die_v or_o impetrate_v for_o we_o so_o it_o be_v god_n that_o justifi_v we_o and_o make_v application_n of_o christ_n death_n unto_o we_o rom._n 8.33_o and_o i_o be_o content_a that_o they_o call_v what_o christ_n do_v for_o we_o on_o the_o cross_n impetration_n and_o what_o god_n do_v for_o we_o in_o relation_n to_o it_o and_o by_o virtue_n of_o it_o application_n but_o i_o mislike_v of_o their_o division_n that_o they_o shall_v divide_v the_o work_n of_o christ_n and_o god_n so_o as_o if_o christ_n shall_v impetrate_v and_o die_v for_o many_o man_n to_o who_o god_n make_v no_o application_n of_o christ_n death_n for_o they_o say_v christ_n impetrate_v for_o all_o man_n believer_n and_o unbeliever_n but_o god_n apply_v christ_n death_n for_o justification_n to_o believer_n only_o now_o thus_o the_o work_n of_o christ_n and_o god_n do_v not_o concur_v in_o the_o same_o person_n but_o be_v divide_v for_o god_n make_v no_o application_n unto_o many_o man_n for_o who_o christ_n make_v impetration_n on_o the_o contrary_n we_o hold_v that_o the_o work_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o god_n the_o son_n be_v undivided_a distinguish_v they_o may_v be_v but_o divide_v they_o may_v not_o be_v they_o always_o concur_v as_o touch_v the_o same_o person_n to_o whosoever_o god_n make_v application_n to_o and_o for_o those_o and_o none_o other_o christ_n make_v impetration_n and_o for_o whosoever_o christ_n impetrate_v to_o those_o and_o to_o all_o those_o god_n make_v application_n and_o as_o touch_v faith_n we_o hold_v that_o as_o god_n respect_v faith_n in_o application_n so_o christ_n respect_v faith_n in_o impetration_n so_o as_o faith_n be_v precedent_n in_o both_o and_o so_o god_n and_o christ_n have_v respect_n unto_o the_o same_o person_n and_o unto_o the_o same_o qualification_n of_o the_o person_n but_o that_o faith_n be_v to_o come_v between_o impetration_n and_o application_n be_v but_o a_o arminian_n devise_v divide_v the_o consideration_n and_o respect_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n about_o one_o and_o the_o same_o work_n of_o redemption_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o confutation_n 1_o for_o the_o absurdness_n of_o this_o distinction_n of_o impetration_n and_o application_n &_o the_o arminian_n devise_v of_o faith_n come_v between_o they_o as_o a_o condition_n of_o the_o latter_a only_o put_v case_n that_o a_o king_n have_v subject_n in_o thraldom_n and_o captivity_n under_o a_o foreign_a king_n and_o to_o ransom_n &_o redeem_v they_o he_o send_v his_o only_a son_n to_o lay_v in_o bondage_n and_o captivity_n for_o they_o and_o in_o their_o stead_n and_o place_n and_o this_o the_o king_n do_v without_o any_o condition_n at_o all_o to_o be_v perform_v by_o his_o subject_n if_o now_o the_o foreign_a king_n refuse_v to_o deliver_v &_o set_v free_a the_o subject_n unless_o they_o will_v perform_v some_o condition_n first_o which_o he_o impose_v upon_o they_o and_o which_o their_o own_o king_n never_o require_v of_o they_o in_o send_v his_o son_n nor_o do_v his_o son_n go_v into_o captivity_n for_o they_o upon_o any_o such_o condition_n be_v it_o not_o absurd_a to_o imagine_v that_o the_o foreign_a king_n shall_v require_v a_o condition_n to_o be_v perform_v by_o the_o subject_n before_o he_o will_v apply_v the_o ransom_n to_o they_o and_o set_v they_o free_a it_o must_v needs_o be_v absurd_a for_o you_o must_v imagine_v

be_v put_v into_o captivity_n so_o be_v the_o case_n if_o faith_n go_v between_o impetration_n and_o application_n and_o if_o christ_n die_v for_o man_n absolute_o without_o the_o condition_n of_o faith_n and_o yet_o god_n will_v require_v the_o condition_n of_o faith_n before_o he_o will_v make_v application_n &_o set_a man_n free_a from_o their_o sin_n and_o condemnation_n i_o know_v nothing_o they_o have_v to_o say_v to_o free_v themselves_o of_o this_o absurdity_n but_o this_o that_o both_o the_o king_n christ_n and_o god_n be_v at_o the_o first_o agree_v on_o the_o same_o

shall_v apply_v christ_n death_n to_o none_o but_o believer_n or_o to_o such_o as_o do_v first_o believe_v to_o this_o i_o reply_v that_o this_o occasion_n be_v guilty_a of_o these_o absurdity_n 1_o that_o the_o king_n shall_v put_v his_o only_a son_n to_o live_v in_o thraldom_n and_o bondage_n and_o his_o son_n shall_v willing_o endure_v all_o this_o misery_n for_o million_o even_o the_o great_a

absurdness_n also_o of_o this_o may_v appear_v by_o this_o simile_n abraham_n buy_v of_o the_o hittite_n for_o 400_o shekel_n of_o silver_n a_o field_n to_o bury_v his_o wife_n in_o and_o upon_o the_o
