all_o that_o be_v bite_v by_o the_o devil_n as_o to_o the_o break_n of_o it_o by_o hezekiah_n i_o have_v hint_v already_o that_o the_o end_n for_o which_o it_o be_v make_v cease_v it_o be_v of_o no_o

and_o passion_n now_o this_o end_n must_v last_v till_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o his_o image_n be_v still_o to_o be_v retain_v and_o keep_v with_o honour_n for_o ever_o 8_o 2_o

against_o our_o doctrine_n of_o indulgency_n purgatory_n and_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a i_o answer_v thus_o to_o the_o first_o now_o first_o as_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o indulgency_n you_o say_v

but_o you_o must_v understand_v that_o as_o the_o work_n of_o jesus_n christ_n upon_o earth_n so_o be_v those_o of_o his_o saint_n here_o as_o well_o satisfactory_a as_o mertorious_a for_o he_o merit_v both_o for_o himself_o &_o we_o for_o himself_o he_o merit_v because_o by_o the_o humility_n of_o his_o passion_n he_o merit_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o resurrection_n for_o so_o s._n paul_n tell_v we_o 10._o phil._n 2.9_o 10._o that_o be_v find_v in_o fashion_n as_o a_o man_n he_o humble_v himself_o and_o become_v obedient_a unto_o death_n even_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n wherefore_o god_n have_v high_o exalt_v he_o and_o give_v he_o a_o name_n which_o be_v above_o every_o name_n etc._n etc._n then_o he_o merit_v for_o we_o 19_o rom._n 5.17_o 18_o 19_o as_o s._n paul_n

he_o have_v none_o as_o s._n peter_n tell_v we_o who_o do_v no_o sin_n 2.24_o 1_o pet._n 2.22_o esay_n 5.4.5_o 6._o ephes_n 5.2_o 1_o pet._n 2.24_o neither_o be_v guile_n find_v in_o his_o mouth_n but_o for_o our_o sin_n as_o be_v apparent_a out_o of_o scripture_n he_o be_v wound_v for_o our_o transgression_n and_o bruise_a for_o our_o iniquity_n the_o chastisement_n of_o our_o peace_n be_v upon_o he_o and_o with_o his_o stripe_n we_o be_v heal_v all_o we_o like_v sheep_n have_v go_v astray_o we_o have_v turn_v every_o one_o to_o his_o own_o way_n and_o the_o lord_n have_v lay_v on_o he_o the_o iniquity_n of_o we_o all_o etc._n etc._n therefore_o s._n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o have_v give_v himself_o for_o we_o a_o offering_n and_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n for_o a_o sweet_a

but_o also_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n just_a so_o we_o be_v to_o conceive_v of_o the_o work_n and_o suffering_n of_o the_o saint_n which_o as_o they_o be_v meritorious_a be_v more_o then_o enough_o and_o infinite_o beyond_o their_o merit_n remunerate_v as_o the_o apostle_n who_o you_o so_o urge_v do_v diliver_v to_o we_o but_o as_o they_o be_v satisfactory_a for_o punishment_n we_o do_v find_v that_o there_o be_v many_o saint_n who_o have_v satisfy_v and_o suffer_v more_o than_o they_o ought_v to_o have_v do_v for_o their_o own_o sin_n as_o be_v plain_a in_o holy_a job_n 6.2.3_o job_n 6.2.3_o in_o who_o book_n and_o divers_a other_o of_o holy_a writ_n it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o suffer_v much_o more_o than_o he_o deserve_v and_o s._n paul_n speak_v it_o

in_o my_o flesh_n for_o his_o body_n sake_n which_o be_v the_o church_n can_v any_o thing_n be_v more_o plain_a than_o this_o for_o the_o doctrine_n
in_o the_o way_n with_o he_o lest_o at_o any_o time_n the_o adversary_n deliver_v thou_o to_o the_o judge_n and_o the_o judge_n deliver_v thou_o to_o the_o officer_n and_o thou_o be_v cast_v into_o

and_o forgive_v in_o the_o next_o world_n s._n paul_n be_v likewise_o very_o plain_a in_o this_o in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o philippian_n 2.10_o phil._n 2.10_o wherein_o he_o tell_v they_o that_o at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n every_o knee_n shall_v bow_v of_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o thing_n in_o earth_n and_o thing_n under_o the_o earth_n here_o be_v clear_o three_o sort_n of_o person_n

of_o purgatory_n and_o a_o convince_a one_o indeed_o may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o frequent_a apparition_n of_o many_o depart_a soul_n to_o pass_v by_o those_o in_o the_o maccabee_n of_o onias_n and_o hieremias_n that_o appear_v to_o judas_n we_o find_v that_o moses_n and_o elias_n do_v appear_v to_o christ_n when_o he_o be_v transfigure_v and_o the_o disciple_n themselves_o after_o the_o resurrection_n of_o our_o saviour_n when_o he_o appear_v to_o they_o think_v that_o they_o have_v see_v a_o spirit_n which_o they_o will_v never_o have_v think_v unless_o they_o have_v know_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o some_o depart_v do_v make_v usual_a apparition_n now_o grant_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o the_o apparition_n of_o a_o spirit_n which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v already_o prove_v it_o must_v follow_v that_o those_o soul_n must_v be_v repose_v in_o some_o place_n that_o be_v not_o in_o heaven_n for_o than_o they_o will_v never_o wander_v here_o to_o so_o great_a a_o loss_n nor_o can_v they_o be_v in_o hell_n from_o whence_o there_o be_v no_o redemption_n again_o we_o find_v the_o thief_n upon_o the_o cross_a say_n to_o our_o saviour_n lord_n remember_v i_o when_o thou_o come_v into_o thy_o kingdom_n which_o he_o have_v never_o say_v but_o that_o he_o think_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v a_o power_n to_o pardon_v sin_n after_o this_o life_n s._n paul_n likewise_o be_v certain_o of_o this_o opinion_n where_o he_o tell_v the_o corrinthian_o thus_o else_o what_o shall_v they_o do_v which_o be_v baptize_v for_o the_o dead_a if_o the_o dead_a rise_v not_o at_o all_o why_o be_v they_o then_o baptize_v for_o the_o dead_a which_o plain_o show_v that_o it_o be_v a_o practise_a course_n among_o the_o christian_n then_o to_o undertake_v duty_n and_o voluntary_a affliction_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o dead_a which_o sure_o be_v imagine_v to_o be_v for_o their_o advantage_n and_o yet_o you_o think_v much_o to_o pray_v for_o they_o now_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o this_o be_v very_o clear_a for_o we_o know_v that_o a_o man_n who_o sin_n mortal_o may_v have_v the_o mortality_n of_o that_o sin_n forgive_v he_o and_o consequent_o be_v free_v from_o the_o guilt_n of_o eternal_a punishment_n and_o yet_o may_v be_v obnoxious_a to_o some_o temporal_a penalty_n which_o if_o he_o do_v not_o satisfy_v in_o this_o life_n he_o must_v expect_v to_o do_v it_o in_o the_o next_o as_o for_o example_n we_o see_v a_o king_n do_v often_o pardon_v a_o offender_n his_o life_n which_o he_o have_v forfeit_v to_o the_o law_n and_o deserve_v to_o loose_v and_o yet_o he_o may_v inflict_v banishment_n or_o imprisonment_n upon_o the_o same_o person_n and_o this_o very_a course_n we_o find_v take_v by_o god_n in_o scripture_n 24.10_o num._n 20_o 12._o deut._n 32.48_o 2_o sam._n 12.13_o 14._o 2_o sam._n 24.10_o first_o we_o see_v the_o sin_n of_o unbelief_n forgive_v by_o god_n to_o moses_n and_o aaron_n that_o be_v as_o to_o the_o eternal_a punishment_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v punish_v with_o a_o temporal_a death_n again_o we_o find_v king_n david_n after_o he_o have_v obtain_v a_o pardon_n for_o his_o fin_n of_o adultery_n and_o murder_n be_v punish_v yet_o with_o the_o death_n of_o his_o son_n nay_o after_o the_o prophet_n nathan_n have_v declare_v that_o the_o lord_n have_v put_v away_o his_o sin_n he_o shall_v not_o die_v yet_o his_o son_n must_v and_o again_o the_o same_o king_n david_n for_o his_o sin_n of_o pride_n in_o number_v the_o people_n be_v pardon_v as_o to_o the_o eternal_a guilt_n and_o yet_o we_o see_v what_o a_o temporal_a punishment_n follow_v upon_o it_o and_o he_o be_v force_v to_o choose_v one_o of_o the_o three_o plague_n for_o it_o i_o may_v be_v infinite_a in_o example_n of_o the_o like_a kind_n but_o i_o have_v something_o else_o to_o say_v to_o this_o point_n so_o must_v not_o insist_v too_o long_o in_o that_o particular_a of_o it_o we_o know_v again_o that_o a_o righteous_a man_n may_v sometime_o happen_v to_o die_v with_o a_o great_a many_o venial_a sin_n about_o he_o especial_o if_o he_o be_v prevent_v with_o any_o sudden_a death_n so_o can_v possible_o have_v time_n enough_o to_o bethink_v himself_o much_o less_o to_o repent_v of_o they_o so_o must_v still_o remain_v obnoxious_a to_o the_o temporal_a punishment_n that_o be_v due_a to_o those_o sin_n certain_o in_o such_o a_o

that_o be_v due_a for_o they_o so_o we_o find_v in_o the_o revelation_n that_o there_o shall_v in_o no_o wise_n enter_v into_o it_o 21.27_o rev._n 21.27_o any_o thing_n that_o defile_v neither_o

the_o undeniable_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n in_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a be_v a_o most_o invincible_a argument_n for_o purgatory_n and_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o custom_n be_v
