DISCOURSE. SECT. IV.
1. Timoth. 2. 4. Who would have all to be saved and come to the knowledge of his truth. In these words the Apostle delivers two things. 1. That it is Gods will, that all men should obtain an happy end, viz. Salvation. 2. That it is his will also, that they should use and enjoy the means, which is the knowledge of his truth, that so they might obtain the end, the salvation of their souls; there is no let in God, but that all men may believe and be saved, and therefore there is no absolute will, that many thousands of men shall never believe nor be saved.
