think_v that_o by_o work_n of_o nature_n they_o have_v obtain_v the_o election_n of_o grace_n again_o that_o shift_n of_o they_o be_v so_o much_o the_o worse_o for_o that_o the_o work_n of_o which_o

man_n shall_v see_v that_o hereby_o he_o quite_o overthrow_v all_o merit_n of_o man_n because_o if_o the_o value_n and_o worth_n of_o the_o work_n grow_v whole_o and_o only_o on_o god_n part_n then_o

sect_n 3._o only_o his_o infinite_a justice_n from_o which_o they_o proceed_v than_o it_o be_v not_o in_o we_o to_o pay_v satisfaction_n to_o god_n for_o they_o because_o by_o m._n bishop_n own_o

that_o finite_a and_o temporal_a effect_n can_v proceed_v from_o a_o infinite_a cause_n he_o be_v control_v by_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o this_o world_n because_o all_o the_o propriety_n of_o god_n

much_o more_o easy_o may_v we_o but_o let_v he_o consider_v better_o of_o the_o matter_n and_o tell_v we_o at_o more_o leisure_n how_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v infinite_a in_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n if_o it_o be_v so_o limit_v and_o restrain_v as_o that_o in_o respect_n of_o temporal_a punishment_n the_o same_o be_v whole_o frustrate_a and_o leave_v we_o still_o to_o make_v satisfaction_n for_o ourselves_o if_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n be_v infinite_a it_o must_v necessary_o be_v extend_v to_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v satisfy_v for_o if_o it_o extend_v not_o to_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v satisfy_v for_o it_o can_v be_v call_v a_o infinite_a satisfaction_n but_o of_o this_o enough_o in_o the_o question_n of_o satisfaction_n he_o go_v on_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o their_o doctrine_n of_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n be_v so_o far_o from_o atheism_n or_o derogate_a from_o god_n glory_n as_o that_o it_o do_v much_o magnify_v and_o
