Arg. VII. Ad hominem: The Adversaries grant in effect the substance of our Conclusion; for,
1. They grant, That God Infallibly decreed to Save all that would believe, &c.
2. That God knew from Eternity who would Believe, and who not, and that Christ knew this at his undertaking to dye, and at his death.
3. They grant that he doth not absolutely purpose the saving of any other.
4. They grant, That as Christ dyed not from Eternity, so we are to look on him as undertaking to dye for us, and entering upon the Mediatory work, not from Eternity (upon his mere decree,) but presently upon Mans fall, when the Promise was made: for the Relation and Extrinsic a Denomination might then begin, tho' no new Act of Gods Will.
