than_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o immediate_a parent_n be_v make_v we_o i_o know_v peter_n martyr_n and_o he_o quote_v bucer_n be_v of_o a_o mind_n that_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o immediate_a parent_n be_v make_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o posterity_n and_o austin_n incline_v much_o to_o that_o way_n but_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o confute_v it_o that_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 5._o do_v still_o lay_v death_n upon_o one_o man_n disobedience_n now_o if_o our_o parent_n and_o ancestor_n be_v as_o full_a a_o cause_n as_o adam_n be_v why_o shall_v the_o accusation_n be_v still_o lay_v upon_o he_o but_o of_o this_o more_o hereafter_o 6._o how_o the_o threaten_n be_v fulfil_v upon_o he_o when_o he_o do_v eat_v of_o also_o adam_n by_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n become_v mortal_a and_o in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n not_o natural_a only_o but_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a also_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n we_o need_v not_o run_v to_o the_o answer_n of_o some_o that_o this_o be_v speak_v only_o by_o way_n of_o threaten_a and_o not_o positive_o as_o that_o sentence_n upon_o the_o ninivites_n for_o these_o conclude_v therefore_o adam_n die_v not_o because_o of_o his_o repentance_n but_o adam_n do_v not_o immediate_o repent_v and_o when_o he_o do_v yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o die_v other_o read_v it_o thus_o in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o and_o then_o make_v the_o word_n absolute_a that_o follow_v thou_o shall_v die_v as_o if_o god_n have_v say_v there_o be_v no_o day_n except_v from_o thy_o death_n when_o thou_o shall_v eat_v but_o the_o common_a answer_n be_v best_a which_o take_v to_o die_v for_o to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n and_o therefore_o symmachus_n his_o translation_n be_v commend_v which_o have_v thou_o shall_v be_v mortal_a so_o that_o hereby_o be_v employ_v a_o condition_n and_o a_o change_n of_o adam_n state_n as_o soon_o as_o he_o shall_v eat_v this_o forbid_a fruit_n and_o by_o death_n we_o be_v not_o only_o to_o mean_v that_o of_o the_o actual_a dissolution_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n but_o all_o disease_n and_o pain_n that_o be_v the_o harbinger_n of_o it_o so_o that_o hereby_o christian_n be_v to_o be_v raise_v high_a to_o be_v more_o eagle-eyed_a than_o philosopher_n they_o speak_v of_o death_n and_o disease_n as_o tribute_n to_o be_v pay_v they_o complain_v of_o nature_n as_o a_o stepmother_n but_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o see_v sin_n the_o cause_n of_o this_o yea_o in_o this_o threaten_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v spiritual_a death_n and_o eternal_a also_o indeed_o it_o be_v make_v a_o question_n whether_o if_o adam_n have_v continue_v he_o shall_v have_v be_v translate_v into_o heaven_n or_o confirm_v only_o in_o paradise_n but_o that_o his_o death_n will_v have_v be_v more_o than_o temporal_a appear_v

in_o the_o new_a yet_o there_o be_v sufficient_a place_n to_o convince_v that_o the_o promise_n and_o threaten_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v not_o only_o temporal_a as_o some_o do_v most_o erroneous_o maintain_v 7._o whether_o adam_n be_v mortal_a before_o his_o eat_n of_o the_o forbid_a immortal_a adam_n before_o his_o sin_n be_v immortal_a fruit_n and_o this_o indeed_o be_v a_o very_a famous_a question_n but_o i_o shall_v not_o be_v large_a in_o it_o the_o orthodox_n they_o hold_v that_o immortality_n be_v a_o privilege_n of_o innocency_n and_o that_o adam_n body_n then_o only_o become_v mortal_a when_o his_o soul_n be_v make_v sinful_a this_o be_v vehement_o oppose_v by_o papist_n and_o by_o socinian_o now_o they_o both_o agree_v that_o man_n shall_v not_o actual_o have_v dye_v but_o for_o sin_n only_o they_o say_v he_o be_v mortal_a as_o the_o socinian_o or_o immortal_a by_o a_o mere_a supernatural_a gift_n of_o god_n but_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a several_a way_n as_o the_o learned_a observe_v 1._o from_o a_o absolute_a way_n a_o thing_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a four_o way_n necessity_n either_o inward_a or_o outward_a in_o this_o sense_n god_n only_o be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a 2._o when_o there_o be_v no_o inward_a material_a cause_n of_o dissolution_n though_o outward_o it_o may_v be_v destroy_v and_o thus_o be_v angel_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n 3._o a_o thing_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a by_o some_o special_a gift_n and_o appointment_n of_o god_n as_o the_o body_n glorify_v and_o as_o some_o say_v the_o heaven_n and_o main_a part_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v have_v only_o a_o qualitative_a alteration_n not_o a_o substantial_a abolition_n 4._o that_o be_v immortal_a which_o have_v no_o propensity_n to_o death_n yet_o such_o a_o condition_n be_v put_v it_o will_v die_v and_o thus_o adam_n be_v therefore_o in_o some_o sense_n he_o may_v be_v say_v mortal_a in_o another_o immortal_a but_o because_o he_o be_v common_o call_v mortal_a that_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o death_n therefore_o we_o say_v adam_z before_o his_o sin_n be_v immortal_a and_o this_o be_v abundant_o confirm_v by_o this_o sentence_n of_o commination_n and_o therefore_o though_o adam_n will_v have_v eat_v and_o drink_v though_o his_o body_n be_v elementary_a and_o the_o original_n of_o it_o dust_n though_o he_o will_v have_v beget_v child_n yet_o none_o of_o these_o can_v prove_v he_o mortal_a because_o the_o righteousness_n in_o his_o soul_n will_v have_v preserve_v the_o fit_a temperament_n of_o his_o body_n especial_o have_v god_n promise_v make_v to_o his_o obedience_n 8._o whether_o upon_o this_o threaten_n thou_o shall_v die_v can_v be_v fix_v die_v the_o mortality_n of_o the_o whole_a man_n can_v be_v evince_v from_o this_o threaten_n in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v that_o curse_a opinion_n of_o the_o mortality_n of_o the_o whole_a man_n in_o soul_n as_o well_o as_o body_n of_o all_o the_o error_n that_o have_v rise_v up_o there_o be_v none_o more_o horrid_a in_o nature_n and_o more_o monstrous_a in_o falsehood_n then_o this_o so_o that_o if_o it_o can_v be_v true_a of_o any_o man_n soul_n that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o immaterial_a substance_n but_o only_o a_o quality_n of_o the_o temperament_n it_o will_v be_v true_a of_o the_o author_n of_o that_o book_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v little_a sense_n and_o apprehension_n of_o the_o divine_a authority_n in_o the_o scripture_n concern_v this_o matter_n what_o a_o horrid_a falsehood_n be_v it_o to_o call_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o immortal_a soul_n a_o hell-hatched_n doctrine_n but_o certain_o you_o will_v think_v for_o a_o man_n to_o dare_v to_o broach_v such_o a_o opinion_n he_o must_v have_v place_n of_o scripture_n as_o visible_a as_o the_o sun_n but_o this_o text_n be_v his_o achilles_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n shroud_v under_o this_o from_o which_o he_o frame_v his_o first_o and_o chief_a argument_n thus_o what_o of_o adam_n be_v immortal_a through_o innocency_n be_v to_o be_v mortalize_v by_o transgression_n but_o whole_a adam_n be_v in_o innocency_n immortal_a therefore_o all_o and_o every_o part_n even_o whole_a man_n be_v liable_a to_o death_n by_o sin_n but_o what_o logician_n do_v not_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o foist_v into_o the_o conclusion_n than_o be_v in_o the_o premise_n whole_a adam_n be_v to_o be_v mortalize_v therefore_o all_o and_o every_o part_n what_o a_o non_fw-la sequitur_fw-la be_v here_o that_o be_v true_a of_o the_o whole_a as_o it_o be_v the_o whole_a which_o be_v not_o true_a of_o every_o part_n if_o i_o shall_v say_v whole_a christ_n die_v for_o death_n be_v of_o the_o concrete_a the_o person_n therefore_o all_o and_o every_o part_n of_o christ_n die_v therefore_o his_o divine_a nature_n die_v this_o will_v be_v a_o strange_a inference_n yet_o upon_o this_o fallacy_n be_v the_o frame_n of_o all_o his_o argument_n build_v man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v mortal_a whole_a man_n die_v therefore_o every_o part_n of_o man_n die_v there_o be_v difference_n between_o totum_fw-la and_o totalitas_fw-la the_o whole_a and_o every_o part_n of_o that_o whole_a it_o be_v true_a death_n do_v bring_v the_o compositum_fw-la the_o person_n to_o a_o nonentity_n but_o not_o every_o part_n of_o that_o compositum_fw-la to_o a_o nonentity_n beside_o that_o which_o be_v immortal_a be_v mortalize_v according_a to_o their_o nature_n the_o soul_n die_v a_o spiritual_a and_o a_o eternal_a death_n but_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n carry_v this_o man_n further_o and_o set_v he_o upon_o the_o pinnacle_n of_o error_n and_o bid_v he_o throw_v himself_o headlong_o because_o he_o do_v evident_o say_v that_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v

strict_a rule_n of_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v by_o way_n of_o command_n but_o denote_v any_o heavenly_a doctrine_n whether_o it_o be_v promise_n or_o precept_n he_o that_o distinguish_v well_o teach_v well_o now_o i_o observe_v a_o great_a neglect_n of_o this_o in_o the_o book_n write_v about_o these_o point_n and_o indeed_o the_o reason_n why_o some_o can_v so_o hardly_o endure_v the_o word_n

precept_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o the_o law_n of_o faith_n which_o in_o some_o sense_n will_v be_v a_o contradiction_n and_o in_o some_o place_n where_o the_o word_n law_n be_v use_v absolute_o it_o be_v much_o question_v whether_o he_o mean_v the_o law_n or_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o he_o call_v it_o a_o law_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o as_o

〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d yet_o some_o say_v this_o also_o sometime_o signify_v a_o promise_n psal_n 133._o 3._o there_o the_o lord_n command_v a_o blessing_n i._n e._n promise_v so_o john_n 12._o 50._o

of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n but_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o dispute_n be_v about_o the_o observation_n of_o those_o legal_a ceremony_n as_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n but_o the_o apostle_n go_v from_o the_o hypothesis_n to_o the_o thesis_fw-la and_o show_v that_o not_o only_o those_o ordinance_n but_o no_o other_o work_n may_v be_v put_v in_o christ_n room_n therefore_o the_o antinomian_a before_o he_o speak_v any_o thing_n against_o or_o about_o the_o law_n he_o must_v show_v in_o what_o sense_n the_o apostle_n use_v it_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v strict_o for_o

that_o circumcision_n and_o the_o sacrament_n be_v argue_v against_o by_o the_o apostle_n as_o be_v against_o our_o salvation_n and_o damnable_a in_o their_o own_o use_n now_o yet_o in_o the_o old_a

there_o be_v a_o difference_n in_o the_o degree_n of_o god_n grace_n by_o they_o but_o not_o in_o the_o truth_n and_o therefore_o our_o divine_n do_v well_o confute_v the_o papist_n who_o hold_v

at_o least_o for_o that_o time_n they_o must_v grant_v it_o a_o help_n to_o christ_n and_o grace_n as_o well_o as_o circumcision_n be_v if_o you_o say_v why_o then_o do_v the_o apostle_n argue_v
