posterity_n in_o he_o although_o it_o may_v true_o be_v think_v that_o adam_n do_v know_v this_o precept_n to_o be_v to_o he_o and_o his_o posterity_n for_o hereby_o his_o sin_n be_v make_v the_o more_o heinous_a in_o undo_v himself_o and_o all_o he_o as_o also_o by_o the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o he_o will_v be_v the_o more_o thankful_a unto_o god_n that_o shall_v propagate_v such_o great_a mercy_n to_o he_o and_o he_o and_o also_o be_v make_v more_o vigilant_a against_o fall_v 3._o in_o the_o next_o place_n let_v we_o consider_v how_o god_n can_v be_v say_v to_o covenant_n he_o god_n enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o man_n by_o way_n of_o condescension_n &_o make_v promise_n unto_o he_o to_o confirm_v he_o in_o his_o hope_n and_o confidence_n in_o he_o or_o enter_v into_o a_o promise_n with_o man_n for_o it_o may_v be_v think_v a_o imperfection_n and_o hereby_o god_n may_v seem_v to_o lose_v his_o right_n that_o he_o can_v do_v what_o he_o will_n but_o this_o may_v be_v easy_o answer_v for_o if_o god_n can_v give_v good_a thing_n to_o man_n he_o may_v also_o promise_v to_o give_v they_o and_o therefore_o both_o to_o give_v and_o to_o promise_v to_o give_v be_v act_n of_o liberality_n and_o dominion_n and_o so_o not_o repugn_v to_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n nor_o do_v god_n by_o promise_v to_o give_v lose_v his_o dominion_n no_o more_o than_o he_o do_v by_o give_v it_o be_v true_a a_o promise_n do_v induce_v a_o obligation_n and_o so_o in_o man_n it_o be_v with_o some_o imperfection_n but_o in_o god_n it_o be_v not_o because_o he_o do_v not_o hereby_o become_v oblige_v to_o we_o but_o to_o his_o own_o self_n so_o that_o we_o have_v not_o a_o right_a of_o justice_n to_o the_o thing_n because_o god_n have_v promise_v it_o to_o we_o but_o only_o god_n can_v deny_v himself_o nor_o his_o word_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v confident_a and_o so_o aquinas_n well_o deus_fw-la non_fw-la est_fw-la debtor_n quia_fw-la ad_fw-la alia_fw-la non_fw-la ordinatur_fw-la sed_fw-la omne_fw-la ad_fw-la ipsum_fw-la god_n by_o covenant_v and_o promise_v do_v not_o become_v a_o debtor_n because_o he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v order_v for_o other_o thing_n but_o all_o thing_n for_o he_o hence_o be_v that_o say_n of_o god_n reddit_fw-la debita_fw-la nulli_fw-la debens_fw-la donat_fw-la debita_fw-la nihil_fw-la pendens_fw-la and_o so_o again_o justus_n est_fw-la non_fw-la quia_fw-la reddit_fw-la debitum_fw-la sed_fw-la quia_fw-la facit_fw-la quod_fw-la decet_fw-la summè_fw-la bonum_fw-la so_o that_o when_o god_n enter_v into_o a_o covenant_n or_o promise_n you_o must_v conceive_v of_o this_o suitable_o to_o his_o great_a majesty_n you_o must_v not_o apprehend_v of_o it_o as_o when_o two_o man_n agree_v that_o be_v equal_a and_o therefore_o a_o debt_n of_o justice_n arise_v between_o they_o and_o one_o may_v implead_v the_o other_o but_o as_o a_o merciful_a condescension_n on_o god_n part_n to_o promise_v such_o thing_n to_o we_o that_o so_o we_o may_v be_v the_o more_o confirm_v in_o our_o hope_n in_o he_o hence_o durand_n and_o ariminensis_n labour_v to_o prove_v that_o god_n promise_n do_v not_o induce_v a_o obligation_n but_o denote_v the_o disposition_n of_o god_n to_o give_v although_o their_o argument_n exclude_v only_o a_o debt_n of_o justice_n from_o god_n 4._o consider_v why_o god_n will_v deal_v with_o man_n in_o a_o covenant_n way_n rather_o than_o in_o a_o mere_a absolute_a supreme_a way_n there_o may_v be_v these_o reason_n 1._o that_o god_n may_v hereby_o sweeten_v and_o endear_v himself_o to_o we_o for_o power_n god_n deal_v with_o man_n by_o way_n of_o covenant_n not_o of_o power_n whereas_o he_o may_v require_v all_o obedience_n from_o we_o and_o annihilate_v we_o at_o last_o or_o at_o least_o not_o vouchsafe_v heaven_n and_o everlasting_a happiness_n to_o show_v how_o good_a and_o love_a he_o be_v he_o will_v reward_v that_o most_o bountiful_o which_o be_v otherwise_o due_a to_o he_o for_o god_n do_v he_o 1._o to_o endear_v himself_o unto_o he_o not_o make_v man_n because_o he_o need_v he_o but_o that_o there_o may_v be_v object_n to_o who_o he_o will_v communicate_v his_o love_n thou_o need_v not_o my_o goodness_n or_o that_o extend_v not_o to_o thou_o say_v david_n it_o be_v augustine_n expression_n the_o earth_n do_v far_o otherwise_o dry_v up_o or_o swallow_v the_o water_n thirst_v for_o it_o than_o the_o sun_n beam_n which_o also_o consume_v the_o water_n the_o one_o do_v it_o indigentiâ_fw-la out_o of_o want_n the_o other_o potentiâ_fw-la out_o of_o power_n and_o strength_n so_o that_o adam_n can_v not_o but_o have_v thankful_a and_o love_a thought_n of_o god_n that_o will_v thus_o condescend_v 2._o another_o reason_n may_v be_v to_o incite_v and_o encourage_v adam_n the_o obedience_n 2._o to_o incite_v man_n to_o more_o obedience_n more_o to_o obedience_n for_o howsoever_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n in_o adam_n or_o remissness_n yet_o this_o may_v serve_v as_o a_o mean_n to_o preserve_v he_o in_o his_o obedience_n to_o god_n and_o here_o you_o may_v see_v that_o to_o do_v a_o duty_n because_o of_o a_o reward_n promise_v be_v not_o a_o slavish_a and_o unlawful_a thing_n for_o do_v not_o god_n deal_v thus_o with_o adam_n if_o he_o will_v obey_v he_o shall_v live_v but_o if_o not_o than_o he_o must_v die_v will_v you_o say_v with_o the_o antinomian_a that_o this_o be_v a_o unlawful_a thing_n and_o this_o be_v to_o make_v adam_n legal_a and_o one_o that_o be_v not_o affect_v with_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n to_o he_o it_o be_v true_a if_o a_o man_n obey_v god_n out_o of_o love_n to_o any_o thing_n more_o than_o god_n or_o equal_o with_o god_n this_o be_v unlawful_a according_a to_o that_o minus_n te_fw-la amat_fw-la qui_fw-la tecum_fw-la domine_fw-la aliquid_fw-la amat_fw-la 3._o that_o hereby_o adam_n obedience_n may_v be_v the_o more_o willing_a and_o free_a 3._o to_o make_v this_o obedience_n more_o willing_a and_o free_a free_a a_o absolute_a law_n may_v seem_v to_o extort_v obedience_n but_o a_o covenant_n and_o agreement_n make_v it_o to_o appear_v more_o free_a and_o willing_a as_o if_o adam_n will_v have_v obey_v though_o there_o can_v have_v be_v no_o obligation_n upon_o he_o to_o do_v it_o 5._o consider_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o covenant_n be_v of_o work_n and_o not_o faith_n the_o covenant_n god_n make_v with_o adam_n be_v of_o work_n not_o of_o faith_n of_o faith_n it_o be_v not_o say_v to_o adam_n believe_v and_o have_v life_n eternal_a but_o obey_v even_o perfect_a and_o entire_a obedience_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o there_o be_v faith_n of_o adherence_n and_o dependence_n upon_o god_n in_o his_o promise_n and_o word_n and_o this_o faith_n do_v not_o imply_v any_o imperfection_n of_o the_o state_n of_o the_o subject_n as_o sinful_a which_o justify_v faith_n do_v for_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n who_o in_o his_o temptation_n and_o trial_n do_v trust_v in_o god_n and_o what_o the_o old_a testament_n call_v trust_v the_o new_a call_v believe_v yea_o some_o say_v that_o this_o kind_n of_o faith_n shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n viz._n a_o dependence_n upon_o god_n for_o the_o continuance_n of_o that_o happiness_n which_o they_o do_v enjoy_v this_o faith_n therefore_o adam_n have_v but_o in_o that_o covenant_n it_o be_v consider_v as_o a_o gracious_a act_n and_o work_v of_o the_o soul_n not_o as_o it_o be_v now_o a_o organ_n or_o instrument_n to_o receive_v and_o apply_v christ_n with_o we_o indeed_o there_o be_v justify_v faith_n and_o repentance_n which_o keep_v up_o a_o christian_n life_n as_o the_o naturalist_n say_v the_o calor_fw-la innatus_fw-la and_o humidum_fw-la radical_a do_v the_o natural_a life_n faith_n be_v like_o the_o calor_fw-la innatus_fw-la and_o repentance_n be_v like_o the_o humidum_fw-la radical_a and_o as_o the_o philosopher_n say_v if_o the_o innate_a heat_n devour_v too_o much_o the_o radical_a moisture_n or_o the_o radical_a moisture_n too_o much_o the_o heat_n there_o breed_v present_o disease_n so_o it_o be_v with_o we_o if_o believe_a make_v a_o man_n repent_v less_o or_o repent_v make_v a_o man_n believe_v the_o less_o this_o turn_v to_o a_o distemper_n yet_o though_o it_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o work_n it_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v of_o merit_n adam_n though_o in_o innocency_n can_v not_o merit_v that_o happiness_n which_o god_n will_v bestow_v upon_o he_o first_o because_o the_o enjoy_n of_o god_n in_o which_o adam_n happiness_n do_v consist_v be_v such_o a_o good_a as_o do_v far_o exceed_v the_o power_n and_o ability_n of_o man_n it_o be_v a_o infinite_a good_a and_o all_o that_o be_v do_v by_o we_o be_v finite_a and_o then_o in_o the_o next_o place_n because_o even_o then_o adam_n be_v not_o able_a to_o obey_v any_o command_n of_o god_n without_o the_o help_n of_o god_n

the_o flesh_n you_o shall_v die_v so_o except_o you_o repent_v you_o shall_v all_o likewise_o perish_v such_o place_n be_v so_o frequent_a that_o its_o a_o wonder_n a_fw-fr antinomian_n can_v pass_v they_o all_o over_o and_o always_o speak_v of_o those_o place_n which_o declare_v god_n grace_n to_o we_o but_o not_o our_o duty_n to_o he_o without_o holiness_n no_o man_n can_v see_v god_n now_o by_o the_o antinomian_o argument_n as_o a_o man_n may_v be_v justify_v while_o he_o be_v wicked_a and_o do_v abide_v so_o so_o also_o he_o may_v be_v glorify_v and_o save_v for_o this_o be_v their_o principle_n that_o christ_n have_v purchase_v justification_n glory_n and_o salvation_n for_o we_o even_o though_o sinner_n and_o enemy_n 6._o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n a_o defence_n against_o sin_n and_o corruption_n sin_n 6._o because_o they_o be_v a_o defence_n against_o sin_n if_o we_o do_v but_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o these_o grace_n though_o imperfect_a yet_o that_o will_v plead_v for_o the_o necessity_n of_o they_o ephes_n 6._o 14_o 16._o there_o you_o have_v some_o grace_n a_o shield_n and_o some_o a_o breastplate_n now_o every_o soldier_n know_v the_o

and_o he_o call_v they_o the_o weapon_n of_o light_n because_o they_o be_v from_o god_n the_o fountain_n of_o light_n and_o because_o they_o be_v according_a to_o scripture_n the_o true_a light_n although_o drusius_n think_v light_n be_v here_o use_v for_o victory_n as_o jud._n 5._o 31._o psal_n 132._o 17_o 18._o and_o so_o the_o word_n be_v use_v of_o homer_n and_o marcellinus_n speak_v of_o

with_o faith_n and_o the_o god_n 7._o because_o necessary_a by_o a_o natural_a connexion_n with_o faith_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n spirit_n of_o god_n hence_o it_o be_v call_v faith_n which_o work_v by_o love_n the_o papist_n lorinus_n think_v we_o speak_v a_o contradiction_n because_o sometime_o we_o say_v faith_n only_o justifi_v sometime_o that_o unless_o our_o faith_n be_v work_v it_o can_v justify_v we_o but_o here_o be_v no_o contradiction_n for_o it_o be_v only_o thus_o faith_n which_o be_v a_o live_a faith_n do_v justify_v though_o not_o as_o it_o do_v live_v for_o faith_n have_v two_o notable_a act_n 1._o to_o apprehend_v and_o lay_v hold_v upon_o christ_n and_o thus_o it_o justifi_v 2._o to_o purify_v and_o cleanse_v the_o heart_n and_o to_o stir_v up_o other_o grace_n and_o thus_o it_o do_v not_o and_o thus_o paul_n and_o james_n may_v be_v reconcile_v for_o james_n bring_v that_o very_a passage_n to_o prove_v abraham_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o faith_n alone_o which_o paul_n bring_v to_o prove_v he_o be_v because_o one_o intend_v to_o show_v that_o his_o faith_n be_v a_o work_a faith_n and_o the_o other_o that_o that_o alone_o do_v concur_v to_o justify_v and_o thus_o in_o this_o sense_n some_o learned_a man_n say_v good_a work_n be_v necessary_a to_o preserve_v a_o man_n in_o the_o state_n of_o justification_n although_o they_o do_v not_o immediate_o concur_v to_o that_o act_n as_o in_o a_o man_n although_o his_o shoulder_n and_o breast_n do_v not_o concur_v immediate_o to_o the_o act_n of_o see_v yet_o if_o a_o man_n eye_n and_o head_n be_v not_o knit_v to_o those_o part_n he_o can_v not_o see_v and_o so_o though_o the_o fire_n do_v not_o burn_v as_o it_o be_v light_n yet_o it_o can_v not_o burn_v unless_o it_o be_v so_o for_o it_o suppose_v then_o the_o subject_n will_v be_v destroy_v it_o be_v a_o say_n of_o john_n husse_n vbi_fw-la bona_fw-la opera_fw-la non_fw-la apparent_a ad_fw-la extra_fw-la ibi_fw-la

therefore_o david_n do_v well_o argue_v that_o we_o can_v merit_v at_o god_n hand_n because_o the_o more_o good_a we_o be_v enable_v to_o do_v we_o be_v the_o more_o behold_v to_o god_n hence_o it_o
