A49183	An apology for the ministers who subscribed only unto the stating of the truths and errours in Mr. William's book shewing, that the Gospel which they preach, is the old everlasting Gospel of Christ, and vindicating them from the calumnies, wherewith they (especially the younger sort of them) have been unjustly aspersed by the letter from a minister in the city, to a minister in the countrey.	Lorimer, William, d. 1721.	1694 (1694)	Wing L3073; ESTC R22599	321,667	222

if_o he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o this_o matter_n of_o fact_n let_v not_o his_o ignorance_n make_v he_o bold_o deny_v it_o before_o he_o know_v what_o evidence_n there_o be_v for_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o we_o give_v he_o these_o two_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o matter_n of_o fact_n that_o pelagius_n deny_v universal_a redemption_n 1._o it_o be_v know_v and_o acknowledge_v by_o all_o who_o have_v any_o understanding_n of_o these_o matter_n and_o our_o author_n himself_o know_v it_o that_o pelagius_n deny_v original_a sin_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v by_o necessary_a consequence_n that_o he_o must_v needs_o also_o deny_v universal_a redemption_n of_o all_o mankind_n for_o infant_n that_o die_v in_o their_o infancy_n before_o they_o commit_v any_o actual_a sin_n be_v a_o considerable_a part_n of_o mankind_n the_o infant_n who_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n have_v dye_v and_o who_o daily_o do_v die_v and_o hereafter_o will_v be_v die_v to_o the_o world_n end_n and_o that_o both_o within_o and_o without_o the_o church_n before_o they_o commit_v any_o actual_a sin_n will_v make_v up_o a_o vast_a number_n even_o many_o million_o of_o the_o race_n of_o mankind_n but_o pelagius_n deny_v that_o these_o infant_n who_o so_o die_v in_o their_o infancy_n have_v any_o sin_n either_o original_a or_o actual_a to_o be_v redeem_v from_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v needs_o deny_v also_o that_o they_o be_v redeem_a and_o consequent_o he_o must_v needs_o deny_v universal_a redemption_n of_o all_o mankind_n where_o there_o be_v no_o manner_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o manner_n of_o punishment_n due_a for_o sin_n and_o consequent_o no_o room_n for_o redemption_n by_o the_o blood_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n either_o from_o sin_n or_o punishment_n but_o pelagius_n deny_v that_o infant_n who_o die_v in_o their_o infancy_n have_v any_o manner_n of_o sin_n or_o that_o any_o manner_n of_o punishment_n be_v due_a to_o they_o for_o their_o sin_n therefore_o pelagius_n deny_v that_o such_o infant_n be_v redeem_a by_o the_o blood_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n either_o from_o sin_n or_o punishment_n and_o consequent_o he_o deny_v universal_a redemption_n 2._o our_o second_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o matter_n of_o fact_n be_v from_o the_o testimony_n of_o augustin_n who_o be_v a_o very_a competent_a witness_n because_o he_o live_v at_o the_o same_o time_n with_o pelagius_n and_o write_v against_o he_o and_o confute_v his_o error_n and_o heresy_n now_o augustin_n in_o his_o writing_n against_o pelagius_n and_o his_o disciple_n testify_v plain_o that_o they_o deny_v universal_a redemption_n on_o the_o account_n aforesaid_a for_o thus_o he_o write_v contra_fw-la dvas_fw-la epistolas_fw-la pelagianorum_n

that_o thou_o think_v by_o this_o and_o the_o forego_v passage_n of_o augustin_n it_o be_v very_o evident_a that_o the_o pelagian_o first_o deny_v that_o infant_n have_v any_o original_a sin_n second_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o infant_n to_o redeem_v they_o either_o from_o sin_n or_o punishment_n of_o sin_n for_o though_o they_o decline_v to_o speak_v out_o and_o say_v plain_o that_o

pelagian_o deny_v universal_a redemption_n by_o the_o bloodshedding_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v so_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v middle-way-man_n who_o hold_v universal_a redemption_n and_o yet_o that_o our_o cause_n shall_v be_v coincident_a with_o that_o of_o pelagius_n who_o deny_v universal_a redemption_n sure_o our_o author_n can_v think_v both_o these_o thing_n to_o be_v true_a of_o we_o without_o suppose_v we_o to_o believe_v both_o part_n of_o a_o contradiction_n at_o once_o but_o whatever_o he_o himself_o may_v be_v able_a to_o do_v
