To Mr. May 1763. Fragment not so receive the sense they which I have been insisting on And I do not know that Joseph Guilford See Journal, v. 7, 362; vi. 149. had any other objection to them than more or less, than 'By grace ye are saved through faith.'

But, still, this does not exclude any man; because God is ready to work it in every man: there being nothing more sure, taking the words in a sacred sense, than that 'every man may believe if he will.'

Wishing you all light and love, I remain, dear sir, Your affectionate brother and servant.
