obligation_n and_o that_o both_o his_o veracity_n and_o faithfulness_n engage_v he_o to_o make_v they_o good_a but_o it_o be_v as_o evident_a on_o the_o other_o hand_n that_o here_o he_o suppose_v the_o contrary_a and_o that_o his_o argument_n proceed_v upon_o that_o supposition_n but_o by_o this_o time_n i_o hope_v the_o reader_n will_v not_o be_v much_o surprise_v to_o find_v socinian_o contradict_v themselves_o and_o he_o need_v not_o be_v concern_v at_o it_o for_o i_o can_v assure_v he_o whether_o he_o will_v or_o no_o they_o will_v take_v the_o liberty_n of_o so_o do_v and_o hereby_o we_o find_v the_o observation_n which_o we_o a_o little_a before_o make_v concern_v they_o confirm_v viz._n that_o in_o their_o disputation_n and_o write_n they_o care_v not_o what_o they_o

unwarrantable_a opinion_n 2_o lie_v but_o let_v we_o admit_v that_o god_n by_o his_o promise_n put_v himself_o under_o a_o obligation_n to_o man_n so_o that_o he_o can_v go_v from_o his_o word_n but_o be_v oblige_v to_o make_v it_o good_a yet_o he_o may_v be_v at_o great_a liberty_n as_o to_o his_o threaten_n indeed_o these_o as_o the_o gospel_n represent_v they_o to_o we_o be_v very_o terrible_a whether_o we_o consider_v the_o punishment_n threaten_v either_o as_o to_o their_o intensive_a pain_n or_o as_o to_o the_o extent_n of_o their_o duration_n for_o we_o be_v tell_v that_o the_o wicked_a shall_v go_v into_o everlasting_a punishment_n that_o the_o worm_n that_o gnaw_v their_o conscience_n shall_v not_o die_v and_o the_o fire_n that_o torment_v they_o shall_v never_o be_v extinguish_v this_o be_v indeed_o enough_o to_o make_v the_o sinner_n look_v pale_a and_o to_o fright_v he_o either_o out_o of_o his_o wit_n or_o out_o of_o his_o wicked_a course_n of_o live_v but_o for_o all_o this_o he_o need_v not_o despair_v of_o mercy_n for_o though_o god_n have_v threaten_v severe_o yet_o no_o man_n live_a can_v absolute_o tell_v we_o if_o we_o believe_v socinus_n whether_o he_o be_v

have_v declare_v by_o his_o solemn_a edict_n that_o he_o will_v do_v so_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o may_v if_o he_o please_v not_o inflict_v the_o punishment_n deus_fw-la potuisset_fw-la

may_v upon_o that_o score_n afford_v he_o some_o ground_n to_o hope_v that_o he_o do_v not_o design_n to_o do_v so_o we_o know_v sinner_n be_v apt_a to_o allow_v themselves_o as_o too_o great_a

of_o god_n for_o though_o the_o question_n in_o the_o case_n may_v seem_v to_o be_v about_o the_o power_n of_o god_n yet_o real_o and_o in_o truth_n it_o be_v about_o his_o will_n forasmuch_o as_o god_n can_v do_v what_o he_o have_v solemn_o declare_v he_o will_v not_o do_v and_o that_o for_o this_o plain_a and_o irrefragable_a reason_n because_o god_n can_v deny_v himself_o and_o now_o have_v we_o not_o reason_n to_o put_v the_o question_n and_o inquire_v whither_o go_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n from_o the_o inspire_a writer_n to_o rest_v upon_o the_o head_n of_o this_o impostor_n who_o make_v his_o exception_n to_o what_o they_o have_v declare_v as_o the_o peremptory_a and_o unalterable_a decree_n of_o god_n nay_o who_o bold_o venture_v to_o affirm_v that_o which_o balaam_n can_v not_o be_v hire_v to_o utter_v though_o tempt_v to_o it_o by_o the_o wage_n of_o unrighteousness_n but_o make_v that_o pious_a acknowledgement_n numb_a 23._o god_n be_v not_o a_o man_n that_o he_o

the_o absolute_a and_o immutable_a pleasure_n of_o god_n the_o wit_n of_o man_n can_v not_o contrive_v any_o plain_a word_n than_o what_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n have_v already_o make_v use_n of_o to_o declare_v his_o final_a and_o unalterable_a intention_n concern_v the_o everlasting_a punishment_n of_o the_o wicked_a beside_o it_o deserve_v to_o be_v consider_v that_o this_o declaration_n
