B. Have you never read what Musculus hath written in Loc. Commun. and Bullinger in his Decades for universal Redemption? Have you not read the plain words of Calvin, cited by Amyraldus in Defens. Doct. Calvin. (though Petavius rail at him for it most furiously)? Have you not read the writings of Joh. Bergius, Conrad. Bergius, Lud. Crocius, Calixtus, of Camero, and his Followers at Saumers, of Testardus, Dallaeus, Blondel's Preface, &c. for Universal Redemption? Have you not read in the writings of Bishop Rob. Abbots, Bishop Carelton, Arch-bishop Usher, Bishop Hall, Dr. Sam. Ward, &c. their judgments for it? Have you not read Bishop Davenant's excellent Dissertation for it, de morte Christi? Know you not that it was the judgment of Dr. Preston, ⟨p. 51⟩Mr. W. Whateley, Mr. W. Fenner, and many excellent Divines among us? Know you not that Dr. Twice himself, I believe twenty, if not forty times over in his Works, saith, That Christ so far died for all, as to procure and give them Pardon and Salvation, on condition they will repent and believe; but he died moreover for the Elect, to procure and give them Faith and Repentance also? Know you not that Paraeus in his Irenicon saith, That the Sins of all the World lay on Christ on the Cross, as the cause of his Death? Know you not that it is the commonest Doctrine of the Protestants, That Christ died for all men as to the sufficiency of his death, but for the Elect only as to the efficiency of Salvation? And what can you say more or less than those few words signify? Know you not that the Synod at Dort it self saith, That Christ's satisfaction is of infinite value and price, abundantly sufficient to expiate the Sins of all the World; and that the Promise is, That whosoever believeth shall not perish. And this is to be preached to all. And, that many yet repent not, believe not, but perish, is not through any defect or insufficiency of Christ's Sacrifice; but by their own default. Musculus his words for Universal Redemption, are (Loc. Commun. c. de Redemp. Gen. hum. p. (mihi) 326. &c.) [Redemptio est generis humani: Ge••s humanum Complectitur non unam aut alteram Gentem, sed mundum •niversum, omnes viz. totius orbis nations, cunctos homines à primo usque ad novissimum.—Generaliter est omnium.—Scimus non omnes Redemptionis hujus fieri participes:
