Universal redemption of mankind, by the Lord Jesus Christ stated and cleared by the…

And therefore when the Apostle saith [whom he foreknew them he did Predestinate to be conformed, &c. And whom he did Predestinate, them he called; whom he called, them he justified: And whom he justified, them he Glorified, Rom. 8. 30.] he never saith, [whom he died for, or whom he redeemed them he called, or justified or glorified] no more then [whom he Created] so that Redemption as presupposing the Predetermination of Election is an infallible means of attaining the Salvation of the redeemed that were so Elect; the infallibility and futurition being not properly from Redemption as such, but from Predestination and foreknowledge, and so from Redemption as joined thereto; (that is, from Gods Intention, or purpose de hoc eventu.) But Redemption doth not presuppose all the redeemed to be Elect by decree, and therefore doth not necessarily infer the Salvation of all the redeemed. They do therefore sorely mistake that suppose Redemption hath this for its direct end, viz. The Salvation of the redeemed; or that it is its end at all, that all the redeemed shall be infallibly, eventually saved: ⟨p. 190⟩But Redemption layeth first the ground of Christs new Empire, and Administration to all the World: Upon this groundwork is the whole Government of the World built, and all the Judicial proceeding, and execution at the last day: And therefore they that deny Universal Redemption know not what they do: They deny the Foundation of Gods Dominion as Redeemer, and of his new Empire, and Legislation, and Judgment. Redemption now, is necessarily Antecedent to the Condemnation of perishing Unbelievers, as well as causal of the Salvation of Believers.
