The Doctrine of the Saints' Perseverance

1. M. G. entrance and preface to his Arguments from the Apostasy of the Saints considered. 2. The weakness of his first Argument: The import of it. 3. Answer to that first Argument. Doctrine may pretend to give God the glory of being no accepter of Persons and yet be false: Justification by works, of that rank and order. 4. Acceptation of Persons what, and wherein it consisteth. No place for it with God: contrary to distributive Justice. 5. The Doctrine of the Saints Perseverance charged with rendering God an accepter of Persons. 6. Unjustly, what it says looking this way. 7. The sum of the charge against it considered and removed. 8. M. G. second Argument, and the weight by him hanged thereon: the original of this Argument: by whom somewhat insisted on. 9. The Argument it self in his words proposed: of the use and end of the Ministry: whether weakened by the Doctrine of Perseverance. 10. Entrance unto an Answer to that Argument. The foundation laid of it false and when: it falsely imposeth on the Doctrine of Perseverance, sundry things by it disclaimed: the first considered. 11. The iniquity of those impositions farther discovered. 12. The true state of the difference as to this Argument declared. 13. The Argument satisfied. 14. The reinforcement of the Minor attempted, and considered. 15. The manner of Gods operations with, and in, natural and voluntary Agents compared. Efficacy of Grace and liberty in man consistent. 16. An Objection to himself framed by M. G. that Objection rectified; Perseverance how absolutely and simply necessary, how not. 17. The removal of the pretended Objection farther insisted on by M. G. 18. That discourse discussed, and manifested to be weak and sophistical. The consistency of Exhortations and Promises farther cleared. 19. The manner of the operation of Grace, in, and upon the wills of men considered. 20. The inconsistency of exhortations with the efficacy of Grace, disputed by M. G. 21. That discourse removed, and the use of Exhortations farther cleared. Obedience to them twofold, Habitual, Actual: of the Physical operation of Grace, and means of the word: their compliance, and use. How the one and the other affect the will. 22. Inclination to Persevere when wrought in Believers. 23. Of the manner of Gods operation on the wills of men: M. G. discourse and judgement. 24. Considered. 25.
