he_o die_v for_o every_o man_n but_o he_o die_v for_o such_o as_o be_v save_v and_o such_o as_o perish_v ergo_fw-la he_o die_v for_o every_o man_n that_o he_o die_v for_o they_o that_o perish_v see_v

than_o you_o will_v possible_o ask_v i_o who_o then_o the_o apostle_n mean_v when_o he_o say_v his_o long_a suffering_n to_o we_o not_o willing_a that_o any_o shall_v perish_v but_o all_o shall_v

his_o branch_n shall_v spread_v and_o his_o beauty_n shall_v be_v as_o the_o olive_n tree_n and_o his_o smell_n as_o lebanon_n from_o whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o very_a same_o prophet_n do_v prophecy_n of_o god_n love_n to_o israel_n and_o their_o prosperous_a estate_n after_o their_o return_n although_o you_o say_v he_o will_v love_v they_o no_o more_o but_o whether_o we_o may_v believe_v you_o or_o the_o prophet_n i_o leave_v the_o reader_n to_o judge_v because_o your_o speech_n be_v opposite_a one_o to_o another_o and_o so_o pass_v to_o the_o second_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o prove_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o far_o from_o retain_v wrath_n and_o hate_v israel_n for_o ever_o that_o he_o love_v they_o with_o a_o everlasting_a love_n viz._n that_o people_n that_o

that_o fear_v he_o for_o he_o know_v our_o frame_n he_o remember_v that_o we_o be_v dust_n so_o that_o david_n use_v his_o mother_n frailty_n and_o the_o imperfection_n of_o the_o mould_n in_o which_o

good_a colour_n of_o a_o answer_n again_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o examination_n of_o what_o you_o say_v to_o my_o allege_a argument_n pass_v your_o other_o discourse_n that_o of_o ezekiel_n which_o say_v the_o soul_n that_o sin_v shall_v die_v i_o have_v make_v a_o difference_n between_o adam_n sin_n and_o we_o as_o well_o as_o the_o punishment_n that_o be_v adam_n sin_n as_o he_o be_v natural_a and_o not_o spiritual_a so_o his_o sin_n bring_v death_n upon_o the_o natural_a part_n but_o the_o son_n be_v not_o disable_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o his_o father_n sin_n but_o the_o soul_n that_o sin_v shall_v die_v but_o the_o argument_n that_o i_o do_v urge_v be_v this_o that_o no_o defile_a creature_n be_v fit_a or_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o child_n in_o their_o nonage_n be_v fit_a for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n therefore_o child_n not_o defile_v to_o which_o you_o answer_v thus_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n say_v you_o be_v take_v

though_o such_o as_o you_o bar_v they_o from_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v in_o what_o you_o affirm_v there_o be_v these_o two_o thing_n main_o to_o be_v consider_v the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o kingdom_n mention_v mark_n 9.1_o in_o these_o word_n there_o be_v some_o that_o stand_v here_o that_o shall_v not_o taste_v of_o death_n till_o they_o have_v see_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n come_v with_o power_n be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n to_o wit_n the_o gospel_n church_n and_o ordinance_n and_o second_o child_n be_v fit_a for_o that_o kingdom_n as_o you_o say_v but_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o we_o may_v believe_v you_o or_o not_o but_o upon_o examination_n i_o shall_v prove_v it_o to_o be_v a_o false_a doctrine_n and_o first_o to_o the_o first_o that_o the_o kingdom_n come_v in_o power_n be_v not_o mean_v of_o the_o gospel_n church_n or_o ordinance_n but_o of_o the_o power_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o church_n triumphant_a agree_v with_o or_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o word_n of_o matthew_n 16.22_o mat._n 16.22_o the_o which_o be_v thus_o read_v very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o there_o be_v some_o stand_n here_o which_o shall_v not_o taste_v if_o death_n till_o they_o sie_v the_o son_n of_o man_n come_v in_o his_o kingdom_n now_o that_o this_o be_v not_o a_o gospel_n church_n or_o ordinance_n which_o be_v call_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n come_v in_o power_n or_o the_o son_n of_o man_n come_v in_o his_o kingdom_n be_v evident_a because_o it_o be_v not_o where_o so_o call_v second_o if_o he_o have_v mean_v the_o gospel_n church_n or_o ordinance_n he_o need_v not_o have_v say_v some_o of_o they_o that_o stand_v here_o shall_v not_o taste_v of_o death_n till_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n come_v in_o power_n or_o more_o proper_o the_o son_n of_o man_n come_v in_o his_o kingdom_n because_o none_o of_o they_o that_o stand_v there_o do_v taste_v of_o death_n till_o they_o see_v the_o gospel_n church_n and_o ordinance_n unless_o judas_n iscariot_n but_o i_o shall_v show_v most_o evident_o that_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v of_o the_o gospel_n church_n and_o ordinance_n come_v but_o of_o christ_n come_v in_o glory_n but_o by_o the_o way_n it_o be_v possible_a you_o will_v say_v what_o then_o be_v not_o all_o the_o apostle_n dead_a i_o may_v say_v somewhat_o to_o it_o but_o admit_v they_o be_v all_o dead_a many_o hundred_o year_n ago_o yet_o there_o be_v some_o that_o do_v

second_o work_n if_o god_n who_o be_v no_o respecter_n of_o person_n shall_v have_v see_v all_o man_n fall_v alike_o by_o one_o and_o the_o same_o guilt_n of_o transgression_n and_o have_v save_v some_o and_o leave_v other_o in_o misery_n how_o have_v his_o mercy_n be_v above_o all_o his_o work_n it_o will_v have_v be_v a_o very_a great_a dishonour_n to_o almost_o if_o not_o all_o the_o attribute_n of_o god_n to_o have_v redeem_v but_o part_n first_o it_o will_v have_v argue_v weakness_n or_o disability_n in_o god_n in_o leave_v part_n of_o the_o creation_n at_o the_o will_n of_o the_o devil_n or_o otherwise_o it_o will_v have_v destroy_v the_o attribute_n of_o his_o mercy_n so_o that_o his_o mercy_n have_v not_o be_v over_o all_o his_o work_n three_o it_o will_v have_v destroy_v his_o unsadomable_a and_o universal_a goodness_n to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o make_v he_o a_o respecter_n of_o person_n the_o which_o he_o have_v declare_v against_o for_o consider_v if_o when_o god_n see_v all_o man_n in_o misery_n and_o all_o create_v and_o fashion_v alike_o by_o he_o and_o all_o fall_v equal_a in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o guilt_n of_o transgression_n if_o god_n shall_v save_v some_o out_o of_o it_o and_o leave_v other_o in_o it_o when_o all_o be_v make_v alike_o and_o all_o have_v sin_v alike_o will_v not_o god_n be_v a_o respecter_n of_o person_n the_o which_o the_o scripture_n plain_o declare_v against_o final_o it_o will_v preach_v such_o a_o doctrine_n as_o this_o that_o although_o god_n do_v command_v the_o gospel_n of_o grace_n to_o be_v offer_v unto_o all_o ministerial_o yet_o it_o never_o be_v intend_v to_o the_o great_a part_n of_o man_n but_o to_o be_v a_o gospel_n of_o misery_n for_o if_o it_o be_v only_o preach_v to_o leave_v man_n without_o excuse_n and_o that_o to_o take_v advantage_n of_o the_o most_o part_n of_o man_n and_o to_o communicate_v no_o good_a at_o all_o than_o the_o angel_n do_v not_o preach_v truth_n to_o the_o shepherd_n when_o they_o say_v it_o be_v glad_a tiding_n of_o great_a joy_n to_o all_o man_n but_o if_o your_o opinion_n be_v true_a the_o gospel_n be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v glad_a tiding_n of_o great_a joy_n to_o all_o man_n that_o it_o be_v the_o worst_a tiding_n that_o ever_o come_v or_o be_v declare_v to_o the_o great_a part_n of_o man_n the_o truth_n hereof_o no_o rational_a man_n can_v deny_v for_o if_o god_n never_o do_v intend_v in_o the_o tenderness_n of_o the_o gospel_n any_o good_a to_o those_o that_o reject_v it_o only_o intend_v it_o to_o leave_v they_o without_o excuse_n than_o these_o absurdity_n must_v follow_v first_o that_o god_n do_v not_o deal_v faithful_o with_o the_o great_a part_n of_o man_n in_o offer_v that_o unto_o they_o that_o he_o never_o intend_v to_o give_v but_o i_o say_v god_n forbid_v we_o shall_v be_v of_o so_o base_a a_o opinion_n yea_o let_v god_n be_v true_a and_o every_o man_n a_o liar_n and_o let_v every_o christian_a man_n say_v with_o abraham_n shall_v the_o god_n of_o the_o whole_a earth_n do_v unrighteous_o sure_o such_o thing_n can_v be_v find_v in_o he_o and_o in_o say_v so_o of_o the_o lord_n you_o make_v he_o like_a to_o hypocrite_n and_o dissembler_n the_o which_o abomination_n be_v abhor_v of_o the_o lord_n i_o can_v speak_v much_o to_o it_o but_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o second_o which_o be_v if_o god_n never_o intend_v salvation_n to_o all_o man_n in_o the_o derness_n of_o the_o gospel_n than_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n in_o the_o slight_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o neglect_v their_o own_o

it_o reject_v nothing_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o intend_v they_o in_o it_o if_o your_o opinion_n be_v true_a and_o therefore_o can_v reject_v nothing_o neither_o can_v they_o neglect_v their_o

in_o many_o place_n and_o that_o the_o prophet_n do_v carry_v on_o his_o discourse_n to_o the_o state_n of_o the_o general_a resurrection_n see_v chapter_n 25.8_o and_o also_o paul_n speak_v of_o

whereas_o you_o by_o order_n of_o word_n will_v prove_v a_o visitation_n after_o their_o punishment_n to_o be_v the_o gospel_n in_o respect_n of_o who_o glory_n the_o sun_n and_o moon_n be_v dim_a to_o which_o i_o say_v there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o colour_n of_o truth_n in_o it_o as_o i_o conceive_v and_o whereas_o the_o text_n speak_v of_o gather_v they_o as_o prisoner_n into_o a_o

and_o the_o light_n of_o the_o moon_n shall_v be_v as_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o yet_o also_o say_v the_o earth_n shall_v be_v dark_a or_o the_o place_n of_o their_o punishment_n shall_v

that_o death_n that_o god_n threaten_v to_o bring_v on_o adam_n if_o he_o sin_v he_o do_v decree_n to_o bring_v it_o on_o he_o and_o according_o do_v be_v it_o on_o he_o and_o all_o his_o the_o which_o death_n be_v only_o the_o first_o death_n as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v and_o i_o be_o very_o confident_a that_o all_o the_o opposite_n in_o the_o world_n can_v never_o prove_v that_o it_o

and_o be_v by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o whereas_o you_o ask_v i_o whether_o adam_n fall_n be_v decree_v i_o answer_v god_n never_o do_v decree_n man_n shall_v sin_v god_n do_v fore_o see_v man_n will_v but_o never_o do_v decree_n he_o shall_v yet_o god_n do_v decree_n to_o send_v christ_n see_v adam_n fall_n we_o agree_v in_o this_o that_o god_n do_v never_o intend_v or_o decree_n adam_n eternal_a ruin_n but_o do_v decree_v he_o to_o the_o dust_n for_o that_o sin_n and_o when_o he_o have_v bring_v he_o there_o his_o justice_n be_v satisfy_v and_o have_v god_n be_v only_a justice_n and_o not_o mercy_n there_o he_o must_v have_v hin_a for_o ever_o their_o justice_n to_o he_o and_o their_o mercy_n for_o he_o to_o bring_v some_o again_o from_o the_o dead_a and_o so_o say_v the_o scripture_n 2_o sam._n 14.14_o we_o must_v needs_o die_v and_o be_v like_o water_n spill_v upon_o the_o ground_n for_o god_n have_v decree_v it_o yet_o he_o

for_o before_o god_n send_v jonah_n to_o niniveh_n to_o proclaim_v yet_o forty_o dale_n and_o niniveh_n shall_v be_v destroy_v he_o have_v decree_v and_o declare_v it_o that_o in_o what_o instant_n

only_o for_o this_o cause_n because_o he_o see_v the_o lord_n prosper_v they_o and_o they_o do_v multiply_v and_o second_o the_o cause_n why_o the_o lord_n raise_v he_o up_o be_v for_o his_o
