This subjection, however, will be accomplished in certain\r\nways, and after certain training, and at certain times; for it\r\nis not to be imagined that the subjection is to be brought about\r\nby the pressure of necessity (lest the whole world should then\r\nappear to be subdued to God by force), but by word, reason,\r\nand doctrine; by a call to a better course of things, by the\r\nbest systems of training, by the employment also of suitable\r\nand appropriate threatenings, which will justly impend over\r\nthose who despise any care or attention to their salvation and\r\nusefulness.
