second_o death_n be_v because_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n will_v by_o no_o mean_n clear_v the_o guilty_a exod._n 34.7_o but_o if_o god_n do_v send_v christ_n to_o take_v away_o the_o second_o death_n so_o that_o many_o taste_v it_o not_o and_o none_o taste_v it_o for_o that_o sin_n commit_v in_o paradise_n rom._n 5.18_o then_o god_n do_v use_v a_o mean_n to_o clear_v the_o guilty_a and_o so_o his_o word_n be_v yea_o and_o nay_o and_o not_o yea_o and_o amen_o but_o it_o be_v the_o guilt_n of_o the_o first_o death_n god_n spare_v not_o his_o own_o precious_a one_o but_o we_o must_v needs_o die_v and_o be_v as_o water_v spill_v upon_o the_o ground_n which_o can_v be_v gather_v neither_o do_v god_n respect_v the_o person_n of_o any_o man_n yet_o he_o have_v use_v a_o

so_o give_v way_n to_o mercy_n and_o thus_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o four_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o sin_n commit_v in_o paradise_n make_v not_o adam_n guilty_a and_o liable_a to_o the_o second_o death_n which_o be_v reas_n 4._o four_o because_o it_o argue_v a_o change_n in_o god_n in_o what_o he_o have_v absolute_o decree_v for_o god_n do_v absolute_o decree_v that_o if_o adam_n do_v

etc._n add_v this_o also_o it_o make_v god_n to_o be_v a_o liar_n and_o the_o devil_n to_o speak_v the_o truth_n which_o be_v blasphemy_n to_o assert_v for_o as_o god_n say_v that_o if_o adam_n eat_v

judge_v who_o it_o be_v that_o speak_v the_o truth_n but_o it_o be_v the_o first_o death_n that_o god_n intend_v in_o that_o place_n god_n word_n be_v fulfil_v adam_n do_v so_o die_v and_o so_o god_n word_n be_v true_a and_o the_o devil_n be_v a_o liar_n from_o the_o beginning_n but_o say_v my_o antagonist_n god_n may_v alter_v in_o his_o threaten_n as_o in_o nineveh_n and_o hezekiah_n and_o the_o

evil_a that_o he_o say_v he_o will_v bring_v upon_o they_o jer._n 18._o but_o nineveh_n do_v repent_v and_o proclaim_v a_o fast_a and_o therefore_o god_n be_v engage_v according_a to_o his_o word_n not_o to_o destroy_v they_o but_o the_o case_n be_v not_o so_o with_o adam_n and_o also_o hezekiah_n do_v repent_v and_o humble_v himself_o with_o mourning_n and_o so_o god_n be_v constrain_v to_o

have_v decree_v but_o do_v decree_n to_o alter_v the_o dispensation_n of_o mercy_n and_o justice_n according_a to_o his_o creature_n act_n and_o thus_o i_o leave_v the_o objection_n have_v answer_v it_o before_o and_o also_o the_o reason_n and_o come_v now_o to_o the_o five_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o adam_n sin_n do_v not_o make_v he_o guilty_a of_o or_o liable_a to_o the_o second_o death_n

be_v no_o promise_n of_o a_o second_o life_n till_o after_o the_o fall_n and_o therefore_o god_n can_v not_o threaten_v man_n with_o the_o loss_n of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v not_o give_v or_o promise_v to_o give_v unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o that_o sin_n in_o paradise_n can_v not_o make_v adam_n guilty_a of_o the_o second_o death_n because_o he_o never_o have_v a_o second_o life_n or_o

therefore_o not_o guilty_a of_o the_o second_o death_n and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o six_o and_o last_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o adam_n sin_n make_v he_o not_o guilty_a of_o the_o second_o

to_o the_o galatian_n tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v the_o covenant_n which_o be_v call_v jerusalem_n which_o be_v from_o above_o and_o from_o the_o hebrew_n we_o learn_v also_o that_o it_o be_v the_o

of_o mount-zion_n and_o the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n but_o i_o shall_v leave_v these_o thing_n at_o present_a and_o pass_v to_o the_o answer_n of_o some_o objection_n usual_o urge_v against_o the_o perpetuation_n of_o christ_n ordinance_n or_o the_o constant_a practise_v of_o they_o and_o the_o first_o that_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o be_v object_n 1._o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o god_n do_v
