Chap. 7. ter, Appendix page ay. He farther there addes, May you not as well give the pales to wicked men as the Covenant, except you will evade GM Mr. Blake, and fay the Sacraments Peale brit c6nditionally, and then let all come that will. Concerning which pafiage, full , would entreat any that is able to make fenfe of the words, to help me out,what that is, which he Pays Mr. Blake evades by bringing in a conditional feale? is it not that which in the words before he had exs as the Covenant? and yet from hat evaf wicked his men as well it will follow, let all come that will. It is a ftrange way to evade the admillìon of all, by letting in all. Secondly, I delire to know of this Queftionift, why Mr. Blake is fingled out as a man alone, in fuch an abfurdity (as he would render it) in laying the Sacraments Peale but conditionally ; lure it came from fuch an hand that beares fingular good will to him,' or elfe why might it not have been Paid, unleffe you will evade, as Dr. whittaker, Dr. cflmef. Vorflius, Mr. Rutherford, Dr. Rey- nolds, together with the whole current of Proteftant Divines, Bel- larmines adverfaries, to whom I have heard Mr_ e4nthony -Bur - e give his affent,that Bellarmine would never be anfwered, uun- leffe this were confeffed. When Mr. Blake goes along with fo much company, why is it that here he fhould ftand alone? Mr. Tombes indeed page 16.4. of his Examen, faith, Nor do 1 know any but Corvinus in his Examen 01 Moulins Anatomy, chap 9, 6. that dó (peak of Gods Covenant as if it were common to thee EleEEl and Re- probate, and conditional in this fenfe ; where he proceeds to fpeak.. of conditional fealing, in the fenfe which (we have heard be- fore) he fancies. When Corvima in that chap. hath no one word about it. The title of the chap. is `De imputatione primi peccati, and the fe &ion quoted is fpent in examination of lU=oul °rts reafons, why all the fins of Parents are not imputed to their children. And .I am confident he hath no Inch thing in his whole book, Moulin giving him no occafion, fo that it feems he then knew neither Ar- minian nor any other that fpeak in that manner. And I am per - fwaded that Mr. Ìombes and this Q eftionif are both of one pitch, both for knowledge and ignorance, and ftand equally affe &ed to Mr. Blake, both in refpec`,t_ of his perfon and opini- ons. Thirdly, I would know with what colour it follows from the do &rine and the Covenant of Grace. 39
