of_o adam_n to_o be_v voluntary_o certain_a as_o for_o necessity_n there_o be_v not_o a_o necessitas_fw-la actina_fw-la and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o it_o must_v be_v necessitas_fw-la

as_o well_o as_o the_o tree_n of_o death_n and_o apostasy_n and_o so_o he_o be_v thereby_o as_o near_o to_o happiness_n as_o to_o misery_n but_o that_o god_n shall_v establish_v he_o as_o he_o do_v the_o elect_n he_o be_v not_o bind_v for_o he_o that_o bind_v god_n must_v give_v first_o unto_o god_n now_o the_o creature_n can_v give_v first_o unto_o the_o creator_n for_o he_o must_v be_v before_o he_o can_v give_v and_o even_o that_o be_v which_o be_v man_n first_o he_o must_v first_o receive_v from_o his_o creator_n so_o be_v he_o first_o a_o debtor_n in_o his_o very_a be_v and_o a_o man_n by_o one_o debt_n can_v make_v title_n to_o another_o eight_o though_o god_n be_v say_v to_o harden_v yet_o he_o do_v it_o not_o by_o influence_n of_o corruption_n or_o supply_v of_o vice_n but_o god_n herein_o be_v most_o absolute_o clear_v for_o he_o do_v it_o by_o notdoing_a and_o if_o god_n do_v not_o in_o sin_n how_o can_v he_o be_v accuse_v of_o do_v sin_n if_o god_n will_v that_o pharaoh_n shall_v be_v harden_v let_v he_o but_o keep_v in_o his_o breath_n even_o his_o bless_a spirit_n by_o which_o heart_n of_o stone_n be_v make_v heart_n of_o flesh_n and_o then_o fle●h_a will_n of_o itself_o and_o by_o the_o help_n of_o satan_n turn_v into_o stone_n god_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o sin_n no_o more_o than_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o ice_n the_o sun_n be_v proper_o a_o destroyer_n and_o dissoluer_n of_o ice_n and_o god_n be_v a_o dissoluer_n of_o the_o sinful_a work_n of_o the_o devil_n but_o when_o the_o sun_n withdraw_v his_o beam_n by_o his_o nightly_a and_o winterly_a departure_n the_o cold_a harden_v the_o water_n which_o the_o sun_n forsake_v so_o where_o god_n hide_v his_o face_n and_o contract_v his_o spirit_n there_o temptation_n harden_v he_o do_v not_o put_v the_o hardness_n into_o the_o heart_n but_o he_o leave_v the_o heart_n and_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o it_o and_o then_o where_o god_n do_v nothing_o to_o soften_v there_o will_v quick_o enough_o be_v do_v by_o sin_n and_o satan_n to_o harden_v therefore_o when_o we_o be_v harden_v let_v we_o rather_o complain_v that_o god_n do_v nothing_o then_o that_o he_o do_v something_o in_o us._n nine_o though_o the_o child_n of_o adam_n be_v necessary_o sinful_a yet_o they_o may_v be_v just_o punish_v because_o necessary_a sin_v come_v from_o voluntary_a sin_v for_o this_o necessity_n of_o sin_v come_v not_o from_o god_n but_o from_o their_o own_o father_n but_o this_o freewill_n bring_v upon_o they_o this_o necessity_n and_o sure_o if_o they_o have_v be_v in_o his_o place_n they_o will_v likewise_o have_v do_v the_o same_o for_o adam_n child_n will_v have_v be_v no_o better_a than_o their_o father_n the_o print_n no_o better_a than_o the_o stamp_n when_o god_n give_v a_o power_n of_o leave_v a_o righteous_a seed_n he_o may_v call_v into_o judgement_n the_o seed_n which_o he_o find_v unrighteous_a and_o he_o may_v be_v angry_a with_o sin_n wheresoever_o he_o find_v it_o because_o he_o give_v a_o power_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o sin_n at_o all_o we_o do_v the_o same_o and_o allow_v the_o same_o and_o yet_o question_v what_o we_o do_v and_o allow_v in_o a_o snake_n and_o toad_n we_o make_v no_o question_n whither_o they_o can_v choose_v but_o be_v venomous_a but_o without_o any_o question_n we_o kill_v they_o only_o for_o be_v venomous_a neither_o may_v we_o excuse_v it_o because_o we_o make_v not_o their_o venom_n for_o neither_o do_v god_n make_v the_o venom_n of_o sin_n and_o sure_o sin_n be_v like_a poison_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o we_o may_v rather_o wonder_v how_o his_o mercy_n can_v endure_v it_o in_o so_o many_o then_o how_o his_o justice_n shall_v punish_v it_o in_o any_o a_o traitor_n child_n be_v impoverish_v by_o law_n for_o the_o offence_n of_o his_o parent_n and_o when_o we_o see_v a_o oppressor_n murderer_n or_o extortioner_n we_o expect_v it_o as_o a_o necessary_a piece_n of_o divine_a justice_n that_o his_o three_o heir_n enjoy_v not_o his_o estate_n this_o be_v the_o sum_n god_n be_v pure_a and_o righteous_a man_n be_v sinful_a without_o god_n partake_v a_o righteous_a god_n may_v punish_v sinful_a man_n who_o sin_n he_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o but_o he_o find_v it_o contrary_a and_o offensive_a to_o he_o last_o in_o these_o and_o the_o like_a depth_n of_o god_n let_v no_o man_n wade_v above_o his_o stature_n every_o man_n shall_v understand_v according_a to_o sobriety_n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o measure_n which_o he_o contain_v let_v not_o the_o homer_n
