sin_n resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n and_o life_n everlasting_a 2_o the_o article_n touch_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v already_o speak_v of_o when_o as_o we_o deal_v with_o the_o justification_n of_o man_n by_o christ_n &_o open_v the_o first_o petition_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n we_o will_v now_o brief_o touch_v the_o same_o and_o then_o come_v to_o that_o irremissible_a or_o unpardonable_a sin_n which_o be_v call_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 3_o sin_n in_o general_a we_o define_v to_o be_v a_o transgression_n or_o swerve_v from_o the_o law_n repugnant_a unto_o god_n will_n bring_v into_o the_o world_n by_o our_o first_o parent_n through_o the_o instigation_n of_o satan_n the_o fruit_n whereof_o be_v by_o the_o just_a curse_n of_o god_n the_o misery_n of_o the_o life_n present_a and_o death_n eternal_a 4_o now_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o free_a and_o the_o most_o full_a pardon_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n obtain_v by_o christ_n apprehend_v by_o faith_n in_o the_o place_n of_o which_o sin_n succeed_v the_o imputation_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o say_v christ_n 5_o the_o fountain_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v the_o eternal_a and_o constant_a love_n of_o god_n towards_o his_o church_n eternal_a because_o he_o love_v we_o from_o eternity_n for_o if_o he_o have_v begin_v to_o love_v we_o he_o shall_v have_v be_v subject_a unto_o change_n constant_a because_o with_o god_n be_v no_o shadow_n of_o change_n 6_o hence_o it_o appear_v that_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v once_o bestow_v can_v never_o be_v dissanul_v for_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n touch_v the_o salvation_n of_o he_o shall_v be_v stable_n and_o firm_a 7_o the_o cause_n whereby_o and_o for_o the_o which_o we_o obtain_v remission_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n towards_o man_n in_o christ_n who_o draw_v we_o from_o condemnation_n deliver_v we_o from_o the_o power_n of_o darkness_n and_o make_v we_o meet_v to_o obtain_v the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o light_n 8_o the_o instrumental_a cause_n be_v faith_n wrought_v in_o we_o by_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n preach_v and_o confirm_v by_o the_o use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n whereby_o we_o now_o do_v not_o only_o know_v that_o christ_n be_v our_o saviour_n but_o also_o do_v apply_v he_o and_o all_o his_o riches_n which_o be_v indefinite_o offer_v unto_o the_o church_n as_o we_o and_o every_o one_o of_o we_o in_o particular_a be_v assure_v of_o our_o election_n 9_o the_o faith_n therefore_o of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v a_o most_o full_a and_o sure_a persuasion_n whereby_o every_o faithful_a man_n do_v assure_o believe_v that_o god_n the_o father_n have_v pardon_v he_o all_o his_o sin_n for_o the_o only_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n and_o in_o their_o steed_n do_v impute_v unto_o he_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n it_o appear_v out_o of_o the_o former_a thing_n that_o the_o opinion_n concern_v the_o remission_n of_o the_o fault_n but_o not_o of_o the_o punishment_n be_v altogether_o most_o detestable_a from_o whence_o the_o doctrine_n touch_v meritorious_a satisfaction_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n touch_v indulgence_n purgatory_n and_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a have_v arisen_a 10_o see_v god_n who_o be_v offend_v with_o sin_n be_v just_a it_o follow_v that_o whosoever_o do_v not_o that_o which_o the_o law_n command_v and_o whosoever_o do_v that_o which_o the_o law_n require_v not_o make_v himself_o subject_a unto_o the_o burden_n of_o god_n wrath_n whence_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o very_a lest_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n deserve_v death_n if_o you_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n yet_o no_o sin_n be_v so_o heinous_a but_o it_o be_v pardonable_a in_o christ_n that_o one_o sin_n except_v which_o be_v altogether_o uncurable_a and_o irremissable_a whereof_o we_o be_v now_o to_o speak_v see_v we_o have_v already_o

opugn_v therefore_o and_o also_o with_o the_o contempt_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o alone_a propitiation_n for_o sin_n 13_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o manifest_a

this_o sin_n will_v the_o lord_n therefore_o have_v just_o to_o be_v unpardonable_a because_o that_o they_o who_o do_v after_o this_o sort_n throw_v themselves_o headlong_o do_v tread_v under_o foot_n
