the_o act_n as_o privation_n in_o a_o subject_n yet_o they_o be_v two_o distinct_a thing_n and_o may_v in_o our_o understanding_n admit_v a_o separation_n of_o the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o and_o the_o action_n must_v needs_o be_v good_a or_o else_o the_o obliquity_n can_v not_o subsist_v for_o sin_n have_v not_o any_o be_v in_o rerum_fw-la natura_fw-la if_o we_o consider_v it_o simple_o in_o

that_o although_o every_o action_n be_v from_o god_n yet_o the_o sin_n and_o the_o obliquity_n of_o the_o action_n be_v from_o man_n but_o then_o again_o it_o be_v object_v that_o god_n know_v we_o

as_o easy_o have_v hinder_v adam_n to_o have_v sin_v as_o to_o forgive_v he_o when_o he_o have_v sin_v for_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o god_n suffer_v sin_n against_o his_o will_n because_o he_o
