clear_o in_o two_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v the_o giving_z of_o christ_n or_o the_o promise_n to_o give_v he_o and_o this_o be_v not_o upon_o any_o merit_n no_o nor_o of_o christ_n himself_o and_o

from_o pure_a love_n without_o any_o respect_n to_o any_o merit_n at_o all_o the_o second_o be_v in_o call_v wherein_o he_o prevent_v both_o by_o give_v the_o mean_n of_o conversion_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o his_o spirit_n to_o make_v they_o effectual_a therefore_o the_o scripture_n so_o much_o magnify_v god_n abundant_a love_n and_o free_a grace_n manifest_v in_o both_o 1._o for_o the_o first_o it_o be_v say_v god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n joh._n 3._o 16._o and_o god_n commend_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o in_o that_o christ_n die_v

yet_o this_o latter_a be_v merit_v by_o christ._n beside_o the_o manifestation_n of_o these_o attribute_n it_o be_v remarkable_a that_o god_n exercise_v his_o transcendent_a and_o absolute_a power_n

and_o thereupon_o to_o promise_v pardon_n and_o eternal_a life_n upon_o condition_n of_o faith_n be_v act_n of_o he_o as_o above_o his_o law_n and_o dispense_n with_o it_o in_o his_o judicial_a proceed_n for_o if_o he_o have_v according_a to_o his_o ordinary_a power_n make_v the_o law_n of_o work_n require_v perfect_a and_o perpetual_a obedience_n as_o the_o only_a condition_n of_o life_n the_o rule_n of_o judgement_n he_o can_v have_v do_v none_o of_o the_o forementioned_a act_n but_o must_v have_v condemn_v man_n unto_o death_n and_o punish_v he_o according_a to_o the_o demerit_n
