A91862	ʼIgeret HaMaskil Iggeret hammashkil. Or, An admonitory epistle unto Mr Rich. Baxter, and Mr Tho. Hotchkiss, about their applications (or mis-applications rather) of several texts of Scripture (tending cheifly) to prove that the afflictions of the godly are proper punishments. Unto which are prefixed two dissertations; the one against Mr. Baxter's dangerous problems and positions, about the immanent acts of Gods knowledge and will, as if any of those could be said (without blasphemy) to begin in God, in time, and not to be eternal as himself is: or, as if God could be said (without derogation to His infinite perfections) to begin to know and will in time, any thing which He did not know and will before, yea from all eternity: the other, both against Mr. Baxter and Mr. Hotchkiss, about their definition of pardon and remission of sins, in opposition to great Doctor Twisse's definition of pardon, as it is in God from all eternity towards his elect in Christ. / By William Robertson, Mr. of Arts from the University of Edenburgh.

of_o love_n as_o well_o as_o proper_a punishment_n out_o of_o justice_n as_o from_o a_o judge_n and_o so_o either_o of_o they_o may_v be_v choose_v to_o be_v the_o proper_a meaning_n of_o the_o

how_o can_v this_o text_n call_v the_o affliction_n of_o godly_a man_n proper_a punishment_n the_o only_a thing_n you_o can_v say_v here_o be_v that_o the_o whole_a lamentation_n and_o so_o this_o
