John Gill certainly did not believe that the reprobate were duty bound to have saving faith in Christ. I started writing a book on Gill's view of preaching but this has been put on hold.
I would be interested in reading such a book. My experience of Gill is mostly thorough his commentary on the whole Bible (the best ever written). But I have heard that he goes further in The Cause of God and Truth (which I own but have not read).
