dispose_v that_o it_o shall_v not_o rage_n or_o reign_v in_o all_o nor_o in_o all_o time_n nor_o further_o than_o he_o see_v it_o to_o be_v for_o his_o glory_n but_o good_a action_n the_o lord_n

to_o be_v consider_v in_o sin_n 1._o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o obligatio_fw-la ad_fw-la poenam_fw-la a_o bind_v and_o tie_v of_o he_o that_o sin_v unto_o punishment_n and_o this_o be_v a_o act_n of_o god_n justice_n who_o after_o one_o have_v sin_v hold_v he_o guilty_a of_o punishment_n 2._o then_o there_o be_v the_o act_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o subject_n and_o this_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o who_o give_v power_n to_o move_v to_o will_v to_o do_v this_o or_o that_o unto_o his_o creature_n which_o power_n he_o restrain_v not_o but_o suffer_v every_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v make_v and_o enable_v it_o also_o to_o exercise_v the_o natural_a property_n and_o faculty_n thereof_o thus_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o the_o action_n but_o the_o evilnes_n of_o the_o action_n proceed_v from_o man_n corrupt_a nature_n like_v as_o the_o soul_n and_o life_n in_o the_o body_n be_v the_o cause_n it_o move_v but_o the_o lameness_n of_o the_o leg_n or_o other_o part_n affect_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o halt_n thereof_o so_o god_n as_o a_o universal_a agent_n give_v life_n and_o motion_n to_o his_o creature_n as_o the_o soul_n do_v to_o the_o body_n but_o the_o abuse_n and_o deprave_v of_o these_o action_n arise_v from_o the_o corruption_n of_o man_n nature_n 3._o there_o be_v in_o sin_n the_o punishment_n to_o be_v consider_v so_o god_n be_v say_v to_o punish_v sin_n with_o sin_n as_o the_o apostle_n show_v how_o the_o lord_n give_v over_o the_o gentile_n to_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n and_o to_o vile_a affection_n as_o a_o punishment_n of_o their_o idolatry_n rom._n 1._o in_o this_o manner_n as_o have_v be_v show_v how_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v to_o do_v with_o sin_n but_o he_o be_v no_o way_n the_o author_n thereof_o or_o proper_o the_o cause_n and_o that_o be_v no_o imperfection_n in_o god_n that_o he_o can_v sin_v nor_o will_v sin_n but_o it_o be_v his_o perfection_n who_o be_v perfect_a goodness_n itself_o can_v abide_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_a for_o if_o he_o shall_v will_v sin_n to_o be_v he_o shall_v turn_v man_n from_o himself_o which_o be_v to_o

glory_n 3._o by_o minister_a occasion_n which_o the_o wicked_a may_v abuse_v and_o pervert_v to_o their_o further_a harden_v 4._o in_o permit_v thing_n to_o be_v do_v as_o far_o as_o he_o see_v expedient_a for_o the_o universal_a good_a 5._o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n in_o justice_n he_o procure_v 6._o the_o general_a action_n he_o cause_v 7._o as_o it_o be_v a_o punishment_n he_o inflict_v it_o etc._n etc._n 7._o now_o according_a to_o these_o conclusion_n set_v down_o the_o former_a reason_n which_o seem_v to_o make_v god_n accessary_a unto_o evil_n may_v thus_o be_v answer_v 1._o god_n be_v say_v to_o give_v up_o the_o gentile_n to_o vile_a affection_n because_o he_o leave_v they_o to_o themselves_o and_o just_o deprive_v they_o of_o his_o grace_n 2._o god_n harden_v pharaoh_n heart_n and_o blind_v the_o israelite_n eye_n occasionaliter_fw-la by_o minister_a the_o occasion_n which_o they_o abuse_v god_n work_n be_v a_o occasion_n of_o pharaoh_n harden_v and_o his_o word_n of_o the_o other_o blind_a but_o not_o of_o themselves_o the_o other_o through_o their_o perverseness_n take_v occasion_n to_o do_v evil_a where_o none_o be_v give_v and_o turn_v that_o which_o be_v good_a to_o be_v a_o occasion_n of_o evil_a 3._o the_o lord_n be_v say_v to_o lead_v into_o temptation_n because_o the_o devil_n who_o be_v the_o tempter_n can_v do_v no_o more_o than_o god_n permit_v god_n tempt_v not_o to_o evil_a as_o he_o be_v not_o tempt_v jam._n 1._o and_o we_o of_o ourselves_o be_v tempt_v of_o our_o own_o concupiscence_n therefore_o our_o saviour_n say_v to_o his_o apostle_n watch_n and_o pray_v lest_o you_o enter_v into_o temptation_n matth._n 26.41_o 4._o god_n be_v the_o creator_n of_o man_n will_n but_o not_o of_o his_o corrupt_a will_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o sin_n and_o not_o his_o will_n simple_o as_o god_n create_v it_o 5._o when_o god_n say_v to_o the_o evil_a spirit_n go_v and_o prosper_v that_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o end_n which_o be_v the_o death_n and_o punishment_n of_o ahab_n but_o the_o mean_n which_o be_v by_o be_v a_o lie_a spirit_n god_n will_v not_o nor_o command_v to_o be_v do_v but_o hinder_v not_o the_o do_v of_o it_o because_o the_o lord_n know_v how_o to_o use_v it_o to_o his_o glory_n 6._o it_o be_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o the_o subject_n of_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o action_n in_o general_n be_v from_o god_n who_o be_v the_o mover_n of_o all_o thing_n but_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o the_o evilnesse_n of_o the_o action_n therefore_o be_v from_o god_n 7._o god_n be_v say_v to_o deceive_v the_o prophet_n and_o people_n not_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o cause_n thereof_o which_o proceed_v from_o their_o own_o corrupt_a heart_n but_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o event_n because_o god_n use_v that_o seduction_n for_o their_o punishment_n 8._o god_n be_v say_v to_o turn_v their_o heart_n to_o hatred_n because_o the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o hebrew_n which_o god_n cause_v give_v occasion_n of_o envy_n and_o hatred_n to_o the_o egyptian_n the_o heart_n of_o the_o canaanite_n be_v harden_v non_fw-la emolliendo_fw-la because_o god_n mollify_v they_o not_o and_o so_o god_n give_v they_o which_o believe_v not_o the_o truth_n strong_a delusion_n as_o a_o just_a judge_n punish_v their_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o unbelief_n with_o blindness_n &_o perverseness_n 9_o god_n will_v the_o mean_n but_o after_o a_o other_o manner_n his_o will_n be_v that_o persecution_n shall_v be_v not_o simple_o but_o as_o they_o tend_v to_o his_o glory_n and_o to_o the_o propagation_n of_o the_o truth_n 10._o it_o be_v cruelty_n in_o man_n if_o he_o suffer_v one_o to_o fall_v and_o help_v he_o not_o because_o a_o man_n be_v bind_v in_o charity_n to_o do_v it_o but_o god_n be_v bind_v to_o none_o

may_v be_v reverse_a as_o god_n here_o do_v rebuke_v the_o hasty_a vow_n of_o david_n 5._o quest._n wherefore_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o have_v david_n build_v he_o a_o house_n v._o 6._o 1._o the_o first_o reason_n which_o the_o lord_n use_v be_v in_o respect_n of_o himself_o that_o he_o have_v dwell_v in_o no_o house_n since_o he_o bring_v israel_n out_o of_o egypt_n and_o yet_o he_o be_v

be_v no_o cause_n why_o david_n shall_v be_v so_o careful_a to_o make_v god_n a_o house_n 2._o again_o in_o respect_n of_o david_n himself_o there_o be_v just_a cause_n see_v there_o be_v many_o prince_n and_o governor_n before_o he_o unto_o who_o the_o lord_n give_v no_o such_o commandment_n neither_o be_v he_o angry_a with_o they_o for_o not_o build_v the_o lord_n a_o house_n david_n therefore_o shall_v not_o think_v that_o it_o concern_v he_o more_o than_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n which_o go_v before_o he_o 3._o an_o other_o reason_n be_v yield_v by_o solomon_n 1._o king_n 5.3_o why_o it_o please_v not_o god_n that_o david_n shall_v build_v he_o a_o house_n because_o he_o have_v war_n with_o the_o nation_n round_o about_o and_o therefore_o he_o have_v no_o leisure_n nor_o opportunity_n to_o enterprise_v such_o a_o great_a work_n 4._o and_o beside_o david_n himself_o show_v that_o the_o lord_n forbid_v he_o to_o build_v he_o a_o house_n because_o he_o be_v a_o man_n of_o war_n and_o have_v shed_v blood_n 1._o chron._n 28.3_o not_o as_o though_o it_o have_v be_v unlawful_a for_o david_n to_o fight_v the_o lord_n battle_n or_o that_o he_o have_v be_v defile_v therewith_o but_o because_o the_o build_n of_o the_o temple_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o spiritual_a build_n of_o the_o church_n by_o christ_n the_o prince_n of_o peace_n it_o be_v requisite_a that_o the_o temple_n shall_v be_v build_v by_o peaceable_a solomon_n that_o the_o figure_n and_o shadow_n may_v be_v correspondent_a to_o the_o body_n 5._o but_o this_o be_v no_o cause_n as_o the_o romanist_n imagine_v because_o david_n by_o shed_v of_o blood_n and_o wage_n of_o battle_n become_v irregular_a for_o then_o many_o of_o their_o pope_n which_o have_v be_v warrior_n and_o warlike_a man_n shall_v have_v be_v irregular_a yea_o and_o many_o of_o the_o founder_n of_o their_o abbey_n which_o have_v be_v murderer_n shall_v have_v much_o more_o incur_v the_o same_o censure_n for_o david_n war_n be_v just_a but_o they_o kill_v unjust_o mar._n 6._o but_o in_o that_o god_n will_v not_o suffer_v david_n to_o build_v he_o a_o house_n we_o see_v that_o ceremony_n be_v of_o no_o
