Justification.
the doctrine thereof is and hath been greatly vitiate among the Papists. and wherein they place it. 170-171, 189-190. Luther and the Protestants with good reason opposed this doctrine, though many of them ran soon into another extreme. and wherein they place it. and that they agree in one. 170-171. it comes from the love of God. 172, 192-193. to justify signifies to make really just, not to repute just, which many Protestants are forced also to acknowledge. 176, 185-190. the revelation of Christ formed in the heart is the formal cause of justification, not works (to speak properly), which are only an effect, and so also many Protestants have said. 170-172, 175-176, 186-189. We are justified in works, and how. 167, 176-177, 195-204. this is so far from being a Popish doctrine, that Bellarmine and others opposed it. 168-169, 178, 201-203

Knowledge.
the height of man's happiness is placed in the true knowledge of God. 20-21. error in the entrance of this knowledge is dangerous. 19-20. superstition, idolatry, and thence atheism hath proceeded from the false and feigned opinions concerning God and the knowledge of him. 19-20. the uncertain knowledge of God is divers ways attained, but the true and certain only by the inward and immediate revelation of the Holy Spirit. 23-25. it hath been brought out of use, and by what devices. 27. there is no knowledge of the Father but by the Son, nor of the Son but by the Spirit. 21, 28-33. the knowledge of Christ, which is not by the revelation of his Spirit in the heart, is no more the knowledge of Christ, than the prattling of a parrot, which hath been taught a few words, may be said to be the voice of a man. 32-33

Redemption
is considered in a twofold respect. First, performed by Christ without us, and secondly, wrought in us. 173-175. it is universal. God gave his only-begotten Son Jesus Christ for a Light, that whosoever believeth in him may be saved. 96-97, 139-140. the benefit of his death is not less universal than the seed of sin. 96. there is scarce found any article of the Christian religion that is so expressly confirmed in the holy Scriptures. 104-110. this doctrine was preached by the Fathers (so-called) of the first 600 years, and is proved by the sayings of some. 110-111. those that, since the time of the Reformation, have affirmed it, have not given a clear testimony how that benefit is communicated to all, nor have sufficiently taught the truth, because they have added the absolute necessity of the outward knowledge of the history of Christ, yea they have thereby given the contrary party a stronger argument to defend their precise decree of reprobation, among whom were the Remonstrants of Holland. 97-98, 113-114. God hath now raised up a few illiterate men to be dispensers of this Truth. 114-115, 153-154. this doctrine showeth forth the mercy and justice of God. 116-118, 131-132. it is the foundation of salvation. 116. it answers to the whole tenor of the Gospel promises and threats. 116. it magnifies and commends the merits and death of Christ. 116. it exalts above all the grace of God. 116. it overturns the false doctrine of the Pelagians, Semipelagians and others, who exalt the light of nature, and the freedom of man's will. 117. it makes the salvation of man solely to depend upon God, and his condemnation wholly and in every respect to be of himself. 117. it takes away all ground of despair, and feeds none in security. 117. it commends the Christian religion among infidels. 117. it showeth the wisdom of God. 117. and it is established, though not in words, yet by deeds, even by those ministers, that oppose this doctrine. 117-118. it derogates not from the atonement and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, but doth magnify and exalt it. 122. there is given to every one (none excepted) a certain day and time of visitation, in which it is possible for them to be saved. 119, 136-138. the testimony of Cyril concerning this thing. 141-142. it is explained what is understood, and not understood, by this day. 119. to some it may be longer, to others shorter. 119. many may outlive this their day of visitation, after which there is no possibility of salvation to them. 119. some examples are alleged. 119. the objections, and those places of Scripture, which others abuse, to prove that God incites men necessarily to sin, are easily solved, if they be applied to these men, after the time of their visitation is past. 119, 132-133. there is given to every one a measure of the Light, seed, Grace, and Word of God, whereby they can be saved. 115-116, 131, 138-149. which is also confirmed by the testimonies of Cyril and others. 141-143, 147-149. what that Light is, see Light. many, though ignorant of the outward history, yet have been sensible of the loss, that came by Adam, which is confirmed by the testimonies of Plato and others. 163-165. many have known Christ within as a remedy to redeem them, though not under that denomination, witness Seneca, Cicero, and others. 163-165. yet all are obliged to believe the outward history of Christ, to whom God bringeth the knowledge of it. 123

Reprobation.
see also redemption. what absolute reprobation is, is described. 100-101. its doctrine is horrible, impious and blasphemous. 98, 107-108. it is also so called by Lucas Osiander. 112. 'tis a new doctrine, and Augustine laid the first foundation thereof, which Dominicus, Calvin, and the Synod of Dort maintained. 99, 114-116. also Luther, whom notwithstanding the Lutherans afterwards deserted. 112. it is injurious to God, and makes him the author of sin: proved by the sayings of Calvin, Beza, Zanchi, Pareus, Martin, Zwingli and Piscator. 99-101. it makes the preaching of the Gospel a mere mock and illusion. 102. it makes the coming of Christ and his propitiatory sacrifice to have been a testimony of God's wrath. 102-103. it is injurious to mankind, and makes his condition worse than the condition of devils, beasts, Jews under Pharaoh, and the same, which the poets applied to Tantalus. 103
Revelation.
God always manifested himself by the revelations of the Spirit. 21, 30-32, 58. they are made several ways. 21. they have been always the formal object of faith, and so remain. 21, 33-45. and that not only subjectively, but also objectively. 47-50. they are simply necessary unto true faith. 21, 51, 61. they are not uncertain. 51-53. yea it is horrible sacrilege to accuse them of uncertainty. 44. the examples of the Anabaptists of Münster do not a whit weaken this doctrine. 51, 54-57. they can never contradict the holy Scripture nor sound reason. 22, 58, 78-79. they are evident and clear of themselves, nor need they another's testimony. 22, 58-59. they are the only, sure, certain, and unmovable foundation of all Christian faith. 60-61. carnal Christians judge them nothing necessary, yea they are hissed out by the most part of men. 22. of old none were esteemed Christians, save those, that had the Spirit of Christ, but nowadays he is termed an heretic, who affirms that he is led by it. 22. the testimonies of some, concerning the necessity of these revelations. 23-25, 43-45. by whose and what devices they have been brought out of use. 27

whence they proceeded, and what they contain. 62. they are a declaration of the Fountain, and not the Fountain itself. 62. they are not to be esteemed the adequate primary rule of faith and manners, but a secondary, and subordinate to the Spirit, and why. 62-83, 251-252. their certainty is only known by the Spirit. 62-63, 233. they testify that the Spirit is given to the saints for a guide. 62, 74, 79-82. their authority depends not upon the Church, or Council, nor upon their intrinsic virtue, but upon the Spirit, nor is it subjected to the corrupt reason of men, but to the Spirit. 63, 75-76. the testimonies of Calvin, the French churches, the synod of Dort, and the divines of Great Britain at Westminster concerning this thing. 63-64. the contentions of those that seek the certainty of the Scriptures from something else than the Spirit 63. divers opinions of the Fathers (so-called) concerning some books. 63-64. concerning the taking away, and the corruption of some places, the translation, transcription, & various lections of the Hebrew character & of the Greek books, the interpretation of the Septuagint, concerning the Hebrew books, & of admitting or rejecting some books. 73-75. of the difficulty in their explanation. 78-79.

Original sin. Of this phrase the Scripture makes no mention. 95-96. by virtue of the sacrifice of Christ we have remission of sins. 124-125, 174. forgiveness of sin among the Papists. 170. a freedom from actual sin is obtained, both when, and how, and that many have attained unto it. 206-223. every sin weakens a man in his spiritual condition, but doth not destroy him altogether. 207. it is one thing not to sin, another thing not to have sin. 216-217. whatsoever is not done through the power of God is sin. 310.
