yet_o in_o this_o it_o do_v prove_v not_o only_o from_o the_o reason_n before_o give_v viz._n the_o design_n in_o the_o gospel_n of_o good_a will_n to_o all_o which_o be_v the_o fundation_n of_o all_o

that_o follow_v to_o vers_n 6._o as_o argument_n to_o enforce_v the_o exhortation_n of_o pray_v for_o all_o and_o if_o the_o first_o all_o for_o who_o we_o be_v to_o pray_o be_v not_o the_o elect_a only_o than_o the_o other_o that_o follow_v be_v not_o the_o first_o argument_n seem_v to_o arise_v as_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o exhortation_n of_o pray_v for_o all_o in_o the_o word_n therefore_o i_o exhort_v therefore_o vers_fw-la 1._o which_o relate_v to_o something_o speak_v before_o as_o a_o reason_n of_o the_o exhortation_n and_o most_o probable_o to_o ch_z 1._o 15._o this_o be_v a_o faithful_a say_n and_o worthy_a of_o all_o acceptation_n that_o jesus_n christ_n

i_o conclude_v that_o god_n never_o elect_v any_o with_o design_n of_o wrong_n to_o the_o rest_n but_o rather_o of_o advantage_n if_o right_o improve_v christ_n they_o say_v it_o be_v no_o wrong_n to_o any_o but_o just_a and_o right_a he_o may_v have_v reprobate_v all_o and_o have_v be_v just_a in_o so_o do_v and_o that_o its_o mercy_n that_o he_o have_v elect_v any_o and_o that_o in_o this_o way_n he_o have_v exalt_v both_o justice_n and_o mercy_n min._n as_o hold_v by_o they_o it_o be_v the_o great_a wrong_n imaginable_a for_o 1._o they_o say_v that_o god_n elect_v some_o and_o reprobate_v all_o the_o rest_n to_o eternal_a death_n from_o his_o own_o will_n without_o any_o cause_n at_o all_o in_o they_o and_o 2._o that_o notwithstanding_o he_o have_v by_o decree_n lay_v a_o necessity_n of_o perish_v upon_o such_o yet_o the_o gospel_n must_v be_v preach_v to_o they_o design_o to_o damn_v they_o the_o deep_a for_o that_o which_o they_o can_v not_o help_v nor_o be_v any_o

have_v say_v enough_o to_o this_o for_o clear_v this_o matter_n i_o have_v yet_o only_o one_o thing_n to_o inquire_v further_o viz._n how_o you_o can_v clear_v this_o of_o personal_a election_n before_o time_n from_o that_o which_o be_v common_o object_v act._n 10._o 34_o 35._o that_o with_o god_n there_o be_v no_o respect_n of_o person_n do_v not_o this_o election_n render_v god_n to_o be_v

have_v have_v often_o occasion_n of_o late_a to_o speak_v to_o elsewhere_o and_o therefore_o may_v suppose_v it_o needless_a to_o speak_v any_o further_a to_o so_o plain_a gospel_n truth_n as_o these_o be_v christ_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v of_o so_o weighty_a concern_v and_o that_o which_o i_o conceive_v on_o which_o the_o whole_a gospel_n depend_v i_o desire_v you_o to_o speak_v
