Those said he, that thou gavest me have I kept, and none of them is lost but the Son of Perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, John 17.12. Let us then grant that Judas was given to Christ, but not as others are given to him; nor of those made mention of in the Text; for then he should have failed to have been so received by Christ, and kept to eternal Life. Indeed he was given to Christ, but he was given to him to lose him in the way that I have mentioned before; he was given to Christ, that he by him might bring about his own death, as was before determined, & that in the overthrow of him that did it. Yea, he must bring about his own Death, as was before determined; and that in the overthrow of him that did it: Yea, he must bring about his Dying for us, in the loss of the Instrument that betrayed him; that he might even fulfil the Scripture in his Destruction, as well as in the Salvation of the rest. And none of them is lost, but the Son of Perdition▪ that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
