A14096	The doctrine of the synod of Dort and Arles, reduced to the practise With a consideration thereof, and representation with what sobriety it proceeds.	Twisse, William, 1578?-1646.	1631 (1631)	STC 24403; ESTC S102470	142,191	200

of_o his_o will_n but_o according_a to_o a_o law_n which_o be_v this_o whosoever_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o albeit_o god_n make_v that_o law_n according_a to_o the_o mere_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n yet_o no_o wise_a man_n will_v say_v that_o god_n deny_v glory_n and_o inflict_v damnation_n on_o man_n according_a to_o the_o mere_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n the_o case_n be_v clear_a that_o god_n deny_v the_o one_o and_o infl●cts_v the_o other_o mere_o for_o their_o sin_n who_o be_v thus_o deal_v withal_o and_o indeed_o albeit_o man_n be_v find_v equal_a in_o their_o morality_n when_o god_n deny_v the_o grace_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n unto_o some_o which_o he_o bestow_v on_o other_o yet_o when_o he_o come_v to_o deny_v glory_n and_o inflict_v damnation_n on_o man_n deal_v otherwise_o with_o other_o he_o do_v not_o find_v all_o to_o be_v equal_a but_o some_o he_o find_v to_o have_v end_v their_o day_n in_o the_o state_n of_o faith_n and_o true_a repentance_n other_o to_o have_v finish_v their_o day_n in_o sin_n in_o infidelity_n or_o impaenitencye_n and_o according_o we_o distinguishe_v between_o absolute_a election_n unto_o salvation_n &_o election_n unto_o salvation_n absolute_a absolute_a reprobation_n unto_o damnation_n and_o reprobation_n unto_o damnation_n absolute_a we_o grant_v absolute_a election_n unto_o salvation_n and_o absolute_a reprobation_n unto_o damnation_n but_o we_o deny_v either_o election_n to_o be_v unto_o salvation_n absolute_a or_o reprobation_n unto_o damnation_n absolute_a yet_o there_o be_v a_o considerable_a difference_n between_o these_o for_o as_o much_o as_o final_a infidelity_n and_o impenitency_n be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o damnation_n but_o faith_n repentance_n and_o good_a work_n be_v but_o the_o dispose_n cause_n of_o salvation_n yet_o like_a as_o god_n inflict_v not_o damnation_n but_o by_o way_n of_o punishment_n so_o he_o do_v not_o bestow_v salvation_n on_o any_o of_o ripe_a year_n but_o by_o way_n of_o reward_n yet_o here_o also_o be_v a_o difference_n for_o damnation_n be_v inflict_v by_o way_n of_o punishment_n for_o the_o evil_a work_n sake_n which_o be_v commit_v but_o salvation_n be_v not_o confer_v by_o way_n of_o reward_n for_o the_o good_a work_n sake_n which_o be_v perform_v but_o mere_o for_o christ_n sake_n all_o this_o this_o author_n as_o i_o say_v do_v very_o judicious_o confound_v for_o the_o advantage_n of_o his_o cause_n take_v no_o notice_n at_o all_o of_o these_o distinction_n whether_o witting_o dissemble_v they_o or_o ignorant_o not_o discern_v they_o albeit_o the_o genuine_a condition_n of_o our_o tenet_n right_o understand_v do_v clear_o bespeak_v they_o so_o that_o if_o he_o will_v fair_o set_v h●mselfe_n to_o the_o impugn_v of_o our_o tenet_n as_o touch_v the_o absolutenes_n of_o god_n decree_n he_o shall_v leave_v the_o consideration_n of_o election_n and_o reprobation_n as_o touch_v those_o thing_n will_v by_o they_o which_o we_o call_v salvation_n and_o damnation_n &_o insist_v upon_o the_o consideration_n of_o election_n and_o reprobation_n as_o touch_v those_o other_o thing_n will_v thereby_o which_o we_o call_v the_o give_v of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n unto_o some_o and_o the_o denial_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n unto_o other_o wherein_o we_o willing_o profess_v that_o god_n carry_v himself_o absolute_o throughout_o not_o only_a decree_a th●se_a accord_a to_o the_o mere_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n without_o all_o consideration_n of_o aught_o in_o man_n but_o give_v they_o

this_o author_n be_v content_a to_o be_v silent_a for_o he_o find_v no_o such_o harshness_n imputable_a unto_o we_o in_o this_o tenet_n of_o we_o neither_o indeed_o can_v he_o stand_v to_o maintain_v his_o own_o tenet_n without_o plunge_v himself_o into_o manifest_a pelagianisme_n for_o if_o god_n do_v not_o give_v faith_n &_o repentance_n unto_o man_n according_a to_o the_o mere_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n but_o upon_o consideration_n of_o somewhat_o find_v in_o man_n than_o grace_n shall_v be_v give_v according_a unto_o work_n which_o be_v condemn_v in_o the_o synod_n of_o palestine_n above_o 1200._o year_n ago_o &_o all_o along_o impugn_a by_o the_o orthodox_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o pelagian_n and_o semipelagian_n but_o i_o be_o willing_a to_o proceed_v further_o with_o this_o author_n and_o to_o prove_v that_o god_n shall_v not_o be_v unjust_a though_o he_o inflict_v torment_n upon_o a_o creature_n though_o never_o so_o innocent_a for_o consider_v shall_v it_o not_o be_v lawful_a with_o god_n to_o do_v what_o he_o will_v with_o his_o creature_n have_v not_o man_n power_n to_o do_v what_o he_o will_v with_o the_o workmanship_n of_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o shall_v this_o power_n be_v deny_v unto_o god_n how_o do_v he_o afflict_v his_o most_o holy_a and_o innocent_a son_n only_o to_o make_v his_o soul_n a_o offering_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o other_o and_o what_o power_n have_v god_n give_v we_o over_o inferior_a creature_n that_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o sin_n be_v capable_a of_o pain_n enough_o through_o disease_n and_o through_o our_o employment_n of_o they_o to_o do_v we_o their_o faithful_a service_n we_o put_v they_o to_o death_n after_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o whereby_o they_o may_v prove_v beneficial_a unto_o we_o either_o for_o food_n or_o

we_o we_o do_v not_o transgress_v and_o now_o adays_o all_o side_n confess_v that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o annihilate_v the_o holy_a angel_n in_o heaven_n and_o that_o in_o the_o

then_o to_o die_v much_o more_o than_o to_o have_v both_o body_n &_o soul_n turn_v into_o nothing_o when_o the_o old_a world_n be_v drown_v how_o many_o thousand_o of_o infant_n perish_v in_o that_o
