if_o there_o be_v yet_o need_v of_o further_a testimony_n to_o this_o truth_n i_o may_v confirm_v it_o with_o advantage_n out_o of_o the_o three_o chapter_n of_o the_o pilippians_n and_o the_o 18._o verse_n for_o many_o walk_n of_o who_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o often_o and_o now_o tell_v you_o even_o weep_v that_o they_o be_v the_o enemy_n of_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n here_o be_v enemy_n and_o many_o enemy_n and_o that_o of_o christ_n which_o be_v more_o i_o think_v then_o of_o god_n and_o that_o of_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v more_o perhaps_o than_o of_o christ_n simple_o of_o who_o the_o apostle_n tell_v the_o philippian_n and_o tell_v they_o often_o and_o tell_v they_o weep_v but_o i_o think_v by_o this_o time_n it_o be_v clear_a enough_o out_o of_o scripture_n that_o so_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v enemy_n of_o god_n and_o hate_v he_o now_o to_o answer_v the_o objection_n distinct_o and_o show_v how_o this_o may_v be_v that_o god_n may_v be_v hate_v as_o a_o enemy_n see_v he_o be_v goodness_n itself_o and_o the_o object_n of_o hatred_n be_v some_o evil_n you_o must_v consider_v three_o thing_n first_o the_o degree_n of_o hatred_n which_o be_v three_o first_o the_o first_o be_v not_o to_o love_v so_o much_o as_o we_o ought_v or_o not_o so_o much_o as_o some_o other_o and_o so_o the_o belove_a wife_n and_o the_o hate_a be_v distinguish_v in_o the_o law_n where_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o she_o be_v absolute_o hate_v but_o not_o so_o much_o love_v as_o the_o other_o and_o from_o this_o degree_n may_v arise_v this_o distinction_n of_o hatred_n that_o be_v either_o absolute_a or_o comparative_a second_o the_o second_o degree_n be_v where_o there_o be_v no_o love_n at_o all_o and_o in_o this_o case_n this_o be_v sufficient_a from_o this_o negation_n to_o conclude_v a_o affirmation_n of_o the_o contrary_a for_o between_o love_n and_o hatred_n in_o respect_n of_o god_n there_o be_v no_o medium_fw-la abnegationis_fw-la according_a to_o our_o saviour_n speech_n he_o that_o be_v not_o with_o i_o be_v against_o i_o and_o from_o this_o degree_n you_o may_v frame_v a_o second_o distinction_n of_o hatred_n that_o it_o be_v either_o negative_a or_o positive_a three_o the_o three_o degree_n be_v a_o positive_a ill-will_n or_o hatred_n where_o there_o may_v be_v conceive_v a_o great_a latitude_n and_o so_o many_o degree_n likewise_o but_o it_o will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o declare_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o if_o you_o observe_v but_o one_o distinction_n for_o this_o positive_a hatred_n may_v be_v either_o explicitly_a such_o or_o implicit_o either_o formaliter_fw-la or_o interpretatiuè_fw-la by_o the_o former_a i_o mean_v such_o hatred_n as_o a_o man_n entertain_v against_o any_o thing_n witting_o and_o upon_o actual_a consideration_n and_o intention_n by_o the_o latter_a such_o as_o although_o the_o former_a be_v not_o see_v by_o which_o a_o man_n do_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o effect_n as_o if_o he_o do_v purposely_o hate_v a_o thing_n he_o that_o sin_v against_o i_o hate_v his_o own_o soul_n say_v wisdom_n prov._n 8._o all_o they_o that_o hate_v i_o love_v death_n not_o that_o any_o man_n hate_v his_o own_o soul_n express_o or_o purposely_o for_o no_o man_n ever_o yet_o hate_v his_o own_o flesh_n say_v the_o apostle_n ephes_n 5._o much_o less_o his_o spirit_n his_o soul_n neither_o do_v any_o man_n love_v death_n in_o that_o manner_n but_o they_o that_o do_v those_o thing_n which_o proceed_v indeed_o from_o hatred_n though_o they_o intend_v not_o so_o much_o be_v say_v to_o hate_v interpretatiuè_fw-la so_o the_o wise_a man_n say_v he_o that_o spare_v the_o rod_n hate_v his_o son_n because_o if_o he_o hate_v he_o he_o can_v not_o do_v he_o a_o worse_a turn_n and_o thus_o you_o have_v a_o three_o distinction_n of_o hatred_n that_o it_o be_v either_o of_o ignorance_n or_o malice_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v the_o degree_n or_o if_o you_o please_v the_o several_a acception_n of_o hatred_n second_o the_o second_o thing_n be_v the_o degree_n of_o corruption_n which_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o a_o carnal_a man_n which_o be_v two_o according_a to_o the_o two_o kind_n original_a and_o actual_a first_o original_a be_v equal_a in_o all_o man_n for_o it_o contain_v in_o it_o all_o sin_n and_o all_o degree_n of_o sin_n tanquam_fw-la in_o origine_fw-la and_o that_o i_o may_v so_o speak_v tanquam_fw-la in_o ratione_fw-la seminati_fw-la but_o second_o actual_a be_v diverse_a in_o diverse_a man_n in_o some_o more_o in_o some_o less_o and_o that_o not_o from_o any_o special_a which_o be_v in_o one_o man_n more_o than_o another_o by_o nature_n for_o all_o as_o i_o say_v be_v equal_o poison_v and_o infect_v with_o the_o bitter_a root_n of_o original_a sin_n but_o from_o the_o general_n grace_n of_o god_n who_o in_o his_o providence_n do_v bridle_n and_o restaine_v that_o unlimited_a boundless_a disposition_n of_o sin_v as_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o his_o own_o wisdom_n by_o civil_a education_n and_o moral_a instruction_n and_o the_o like_a and_o do_v not_o administer_v those_o occasion_n which_o shall_v serve_v to_o educe_v it_o into_o act_n which_o if_o they_o be_v apply_v to_o all_o alike_o all_o will_v be_v alike_o as_o rank_n in_o sin_n one_o as_o another_o and_o this_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n the_o degree_n of_o corruption_n three_o the_o three_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v be_v concern_v the_o object_n of_o love_n or_o hatred_n good_a or_o evil_a which_o be_v of_o two_o sort_n first_o absolute_a as_o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n and_o so_o every_o creature_n much_o more_o god_n be_v good_a and_o can_v be_v hate_v and_o no_o creature_n much_o less_o god_n be_v evil_a second_o relative_n in_o respect_n of_o some_o other_o thing_n and_o so_o we_o see_v there_o be_v a_o natural_a hatred_n or_o opposition_n between_o some_o creature_n which_o be_v proper_o call_v antipathy_n where_o the_o cause_n be_v secret_a not_o because_o such_o a_o nature_n be_v in_o itself_o evil_a but_o because_o it_o be_v evil_a to_o it_o and_o the_o first_o of_o these_o kind_n may_v be_v call_v simple_o bonum_fw-la or_o malum_fw-la the_o second_o perhaps_o bitter_a conveniens_fw-la or_o inconveniens_fw-la congruum_fw-la or_o incongruum_fw-la and_o that_o which_o be_v bonum_fw-la may_v not_o be_v conveniens_fw-la and_o these_o two_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o god_n who_o according_a to_o his_o absolute_a be_v be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d but_o according_a to_o diverse_a respect_n to_o diverse_a creature_n may_v have_v diverse_a aspect_n of_o convenience_n or_o unconvenience_n these_o three_o thing_n be_v premise_v according_a to_o the_o faculty_n and_o the_o degree_n of_o corruption_n in_o it_o and_o the_o object_n with_o the_o kind_n of_o good_a or_o evil_n in_o it_o and_o the_o affection_n or_o habit_n of_o hatred_n in_o the_o degree_n of_o it_o it_o be_v not_o hard_a to_o answer_v the_o question_n and_o declare_v how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o man_n by_o nature_n shall_v be_v god_n enemy_n and_o hate_v he_o and_o thus_o you_o may_v take_v it_o all_o man_n that_o be_v yet_o in_o their_o original_a corruption_n be_v the_o degree_n of_o their_o actual_a what_o it_o will_v more_o or_o less_o can_v choose_v but_o hate_n god_n in_o all_o the_o degree_n of_o hatred_n comparative_a negative_a positive_a though_o in_o some_o more_o appear_v in_o somelesse_a in_o those_o namely_o who_o actual_a corruption_n be_v improoved_a more_o through_o god_n just_a judgement_n there_o it_o appear_v more_o foul_a and_o more_o clear_a and_o more_o explicit_o who_o harden_v their_o forehead_n and_o with_o set_a malice_n fight_v against_o god_n in_o those_o who_o god_n bridle_n of_o restrain_v grace_n have_v curb_v more_o or_o less_o and_o but_o implicit_o according_a to_o that_o explication_n which_o i_o give_v before_o and_o the_o ground_n be_v manifest_a out_o of_o that_o which_o have_v be_v say_v before_o in_o general_a now_o not_o for_o any_o evil_n that_o be_v in_o god_n but_o for_o that_o good_a rather_o because_o they_o be_v evil_a there_o be_v no_o congruity_n or_o convenience_n between_o they_o and_o it_o and_o as_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n in_o they_o first_o a_o love_n to_o malum_fw-la culpae_fw-la and_o second_o a_o hatred_n to_o malum_fw-la poenae_fw-la and_o two_o thing_n in_o god_n clean_o opposite_a to_o those_o first_o a_o hatred_n to_o their_o malum_fw-la culpae_fw-la and_o second_o a_o love_n
