A48461	A treatise of particular predestination vvherein ar[e] answered three letters. 1. Tending to disprove particular predestination. 2. To shew the contradiction betwixt Christ dying for all, and Gods election of some. 3. To prove that the soule doth not come from the parent, and consequently that there is no originall sinne. By Thomas Lamb.	Lamb, Thomas, d. 1686.	1642 (1642)	Wing L212A; ESTC R216650	13,022	22

therefore_o the_o former_a stand_v upon_o the_o same_o ground_n and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o if_o adam_n have_v resist_v the_o tempter_n and_o stand_v he_o have_v cross_v the_o decree_n of_o god_n which_o be_v impossible_a because_o god_n decree_n be_v unalterable_a i_o answer_v and_o affirm_v the_o like_a of_o his_o prescience_n or_o foreknowledge_n which_o be_v as_o infallible_a as_o his_o decree_n for_o if_o adam_n have_v resist_v the_o tempter_n and_o have_v stand_v god_n have_v be_v deceive_v in_o his_o foresight_n concern_v his_o fall_n and_o this_o argument_n be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o the_o sky_n fall_v we_o shall_v have_v lark_n but_o it_o do_v not_o fall_v and_o therefore_o they_o be_v not_o easy_o have_v and_o where_o it_o be_v further_o say_v that_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v grant_v that_o god_n decree_v that_o adam_n shall_v eat_v and_o die_v and_o yet_o command_v he_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o eat_v to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o may_v live_v this_o be_v to_o make_v the_o lord_n contrary_a to_o himself_o i_o answer_v deny_v the_o consequence_n for_o these_o thing_n be_v not_o contrary_a namely_o for_o god_n to_o command_n adam_n not_o to_o eat_v as_o have_v authority_n so_o to_o do_v to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v try_v his_o willing_a obedience_n and_o in_o case_n he_o fall_v to_o discover_v the_o heinousness_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o disobedience_n and_o god_n foresee_v he_o will_v fall_v to_o permit_v he_o so_o to_o do_v be_v no_o contradiction_n at_o all_o but_o a_o pure_a truth_n for_o if_o man_n be_v elect_v in_o christ_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n than_o be_v the_o fall_n presuppose_v and_o that_o they_o be_v so_o paul_n affirm_v it_o ephes_n 1.3.4_o and_o therefore_o in_o this_o point_n there_o be_v no_o danger_n at_o all_o and_o where_o it_o be_v further_o say_v if_o there_o be_v no_o such_o decree_n concern_v adam_n than_o not_o concern_v his_o posterity_n neither_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o decree_n concern_v adam_n to_o permit_v he_o to_o do_v the_o evil_n which_o be_v forbid_v ergo_fw-la there_o be_v such_o a_o decree_n concern_v his_o posterity_n also_o to_o permit_v they_o to_o do_v those_o thing_n which_o they_o do_v that_o be_v forbid_v and_o whereas_o it_o be_v further_o say_v that_o if_o any_o still_o will_v hold_v that_o god_n decree_v any_o man_n condemnation_n than_o it_o be_v for_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n which_o no_o man_n can_v do_v before_o he_o be_v create_v i_o answer_v that_o although_o no_o man_n can_v transgress_v the_o law_n before_o he_o be_v create_v yet_o god_n can_v foresee_v that_o man_n will_v transgress_v a_o law_n before_o man_n be_v create_v and_o decree_v to_o suffer_v he_o so_o to_o do_v and_o decree_v to_o punish_v he_o according_o and_o wherereas_fw-la it_o be_v further_o demand_v whether_o god_n decree_v the_o condemnation_n of_o adam_n person_n and_o suppose_v the_o answer_n will_v be_v no_o because_o god_n decree_v to_o send_v his_o son_n to_o redeem_v he_o from_o death_n and_o if_o him_z why_o not_o all_o his_o posterity_n see_v it_o be_v write_v joh._n 3.16_o that_o god_n so_o love_v
