Prop. XXXVIII. If the condition on which Christ is given to all (and Life in him) were something of natural proper impossibility, or unreasonable, or if it were long of Christ that the condition is not performed by them, then it were less proper to say, that Christ is given them, or that he dyed for them, in respect to this conditional gift. But seeing the condition is nothing of natural proper impossibility, nor unreasonable, being but their hearty acceptance of Christ as he is offered them and not the least Repensum; requital, price, or repayment; and nothing but their own wicked disposition, and obstinacy can cause their nonperformance; so that they may have Christ and Life if they will; therefore it is proper to say that Christ is given them, and conditional Pardon and Life in him; and that Christ therefore dyed for them.

Prop. XXXIX. It is Gods Law or Covenants which constitute the Right or Dueness of obedience, rewards, and punishments, and it is not Election or the mere Decree of God that ⟨p. 58⟩doth any of these. We have no Right to Christ upon Election, till the Covenant or Law give us Right.

Prop. XL. Elect and Non-Elect therefore have equal Right to Christ, till believing difference them: That is, all have a conditional Right, and none an actual and absolute.
