that_o direction_n it_o be_v in_o that_o respect_n say_v to_o be_v evil_a and_o a_o own-working_a or_o act_n of_o man_n and_o so_o in_o this_o objection_n the_o work_n and_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o work_a be_v confound_v together_o which_o yet_o as_o have_v be_v say_v be_v distinct_a beside_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o work_n of_o sin_n be_v a_o own-work_n of_o man_n here_o again_o the_o sin_n and_o the_o work_a be_v confound_v take_v the_o work_n and_o the_o sin_n to_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n because_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o distinguish_v the_o sin_n from_o

the_o one_o be_v no_o more_o evil_a than_o the_o other_o because_o they_o be_v so_o far_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o nature_n but_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o direction_n of_o those_o two_o

be_v not_o to_o reward_v man_n according_a to_o his_o work_n because_o man_n can_v then_o not_o do_v amiss_o in_o any_o thing_n he_o shall_v do_v whether_o he_o do_v thing_n contrary_a to_o god_n or_o

§_o 32._o yea_o it_o will_v be_v confusion_n in_o god_n to_o esteem_v two_o thing_n so_o direct_o contrary_a to_o each_o other_o as_o alike_o good_a and_o worthy_a and_o to_o reward_v the_o one_o

which_o he_o first_o man_n lose_v by_o sin_n for_o 1._o as_o the_o first_o man_n have_v by_o the_o image_n of_o god_n dominion_n over_o all_o thing_n so_o do_v the_o faithful_a by_o the_o spirit_n

that_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o faithful_a gal._n 4.6_o and_o because_o you_o be_v son_n god_n have_v send_v forth_o the_o spirit_n of_o his_o god_n son_n into_o your_o heart_n

christ_n to_o reconcile_v fall_v man_n to_o god_n again_o §_o 61._o reason_n teach_v we_o that_o nothing_o can_v attain_v to_o its_o former_a perfection_n except_o it_o recover_v again_o that_o which_o it_o former_o possess_v to_o wit_n that_o which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o its_o perfection_n yea_o this_o be_v evident_a in_o all_o machine_n and_o mechanic_n instrument_n all_o which_o

beside_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n create_v man_n upright_o eccles_n 7.29_o there_o must_v have_v be_v in_o man_n all_o that_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o attain_n of_o god_n end_n that_o

so_o that_o in_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o sinner_n can_v receive_v any_o thing_n better_o or_o any_o other_o thing_n from_o god_n but_o that_o very_a thing_n which_o he_o receive_v of_o god_n
