B. My Undertaking is this, [To prove, that in the points of Predestination and Redemption, there is no difference between moderate men of each Party, *but what is resolved into the points of Grace and Free-Will; and in the points of Grace and Free-Will there is no real difference, but what is resolved into the question of the degree of Gods co-operating influx, compared with mans agency, and with it self as on several Objects; which will prove either no difference at all, or else about a thing past mans Understanding: And, that only in the point of perseverance, there is a real perceptible difference; but such as is not worthy to be insisted on, to the breach of Charity, or the Churches peace, but must consist with toleration and mutual love.]
