A worke very necessary for all them which haue received the truth of God in loue, and desire to escape errour. The reader shall finde: 1. A catalogue of his erroneous poynts annexed to the epistle to the reader. 2. A demonstration of the danger of them. cap. 21. num. 7. &c. pag. 178. 3.

of_o such_o authority_n that_o i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o say_v any_o more_o to_o show_v the_o insufficiency_n of_o the_o argument_n therefore_o here_o i_o will_v end_v my_o answer_n thereunto_o which_o also_o must_v put_v a_o end_n to_o our_o disputation_n touch_v this_o point_n of_o predestination_n because_o he_o do_v not_o offer_v any_o further_a occasion_n by_o that_o which_o be_v past_a it_o do_v appear_v that_o he_o dissent_v from_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o this_o point_n of_o predestination_n and_o that_o he_o have_v nothing_o of_o any_o worth_n to_o say_v for_o himself_o or_o against_o our_o church_n now_o we_o shall_v discover_v with_o who_o he_o do_v consent_n in_o the_o point_n for_o with_o some_o he_o do_v consent_n else_o it_o be_v a_o private_a fancy_n peculiar_a to_o himself_o with_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n he_o do_v not_o consent_v i_o take_v that_o as_o certain_a therefore_o he_o must_v consent_v with_o the_o lutheran_n and_o arminian_o i_o name_v they_o both_o because_o both_o have_v share_n in_o the_o business_n the_o lutheran_n do_v urge_v this_o doctrine_n of_o predestination_n but_o not_o very_o strict_o nor_o as_o a_o matter_n undoubted_o reveal_v nor_o do_v they_o press_v it_o in_o all_o the_o particular_n bring_v by_o m._n mountagu_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v ascribe_v to_o arminius_n by_o we_o because_o he_o be_v the_o man_n who_o voice_n be_v near_o unto_o we_o he_o urge_v it_o with_o more_o particular_n and_o upon_o great_a necessity_n than_o the_o lutheran_n do_v he_o choose_v rather_o to_o see_v the_o country_n that_o breed_v he_o bring_v he_o up_o and_o advance_v he_o come_v to_o utter_v ruin_n rather_o than_o he_o will_v hold_v his_o peace_n or_o retract_v this_o sentence_n of_o predestination_n i_o forbear_v to_o confirm_v this_o by_o the_o particular_a passage_n write_v by_o arminius_n vorstius_n and_o other_o of_o that_o side_n because_o it_o will_v be_v tedious_a and_o without_o all_o benefit_n what_o have_v pass_v be_v sufficient_a to_o show_v he_o teach_v falsehood_n and_o untruth_n therefore_o here_o i_o will_v end_v the_o whole_a disputation_n there_o be_v also_o other_o point_n of_o faith_n in_o his_o two_o book_n which_o oppose_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o which_o deserve_v a_o reproof_n but_o because_o these_o be_v propound_v and_o handle_v by_o he_o in_o the_o first_o place_n and_o their_o opposition_n be_v most_o dangerous_a therefore_o have_v i_o content_v myself_o with_o the_o refutation_n of_o these_o only_a reserve_v the_o
