to_o any_o when_o his_o commandment_n be_v not_o regard_v reason_n 2_o second_o that_o he_o may_v reduce_v his_o servant_n from_o run_v on_o headlong_o with_o the_o wicked_a to_o perdition_n for_o be_v we_o altogether_o exempt_v from_o the_o rod_n how_o wanton_a and_o froward_a will_v we_o grow_v and_o into_o how_o many_o peril_n will_v we_o cast_v ourselves_o and_o so_o say_v saint_n paul_n 11.32_o paul_n 1_o cor._n 11.32_o when_o we_o be_v judge_v we_o be_v chastened_a of_o the_o lord_n that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v condemn_v with_o the_o world_n object_n object_n but_o do_v not_o christ_n give_v himself_o for_o his_o church_n and_o shed_v his_o blood_n for_o their_o redemption_n be_v not_o their_o sin_n punish_v in_o he_o how_o come_v it_o then_o to_o pass_v they_o be_v still_o subject_a to_o god_n heavy_a u●sitations_n resp._n resp._n true_a it_o be_v that_o christ_n do_v bear_v away_o all_o our_o punishment_n but_o he_o have_v not_o free_v we_o from_o fatherly_a correction_n now_o when_o god_n afflict_v he_o in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v more_o for_o medicine_n than_o for_o punishment_n more_o for_o a_o correction_n than_o for_o a_o penalty_n loss_n cross_n poverty_n imprisonmeent_n sickness_n yea_o death_n itself_o be_v not_o to_o we_o punishment_n nor_o curse_n proper_o but_o fatherly_a chastisement_n be_v inflict_v as_o furtherance_n of_o sanctification_n not_o as_o mean_n of_o satisfaction_n and_o thus_o you_o have_v this_o objection_n answer_v and_o my_o doctrine_n confirm_v viz._n god_n will_v not_o spare_v any_o no_o not_o his_o own_o people_n when_o they_o sin_n against_o he_o use_v 1_o which_o be_v so_o this_o may_v terrify_v wicked_a and_o ungodly_a one_o who_o make_v a_o trade_n of_o sin_n drive_v after_o it_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o jehu_n in_o another_o case_n as_o if_o they_o be_v mad_a and_o yet_o imagine_v because_o god_n for_o a_o time_n 50.21_o time_n psal_n 50.21_o hold_v his_o peace_n and_o keep_v

will_v you_o grow_v wise_a do_v god_n correct_v the_o flock_n of_o his_o own_o pasture_n the_o child_n of_o his_o own_o household_n and_o shall_v you_o go_v scotfree_a do_v the_o lord_n chastise_v they_o so_o heavy_o the_o burden_n of_o who_o sin_n christ_n have_v bear_v in_o his_o body_n on_o the_o cross_n and_o shall_v such_o as_o christ_n never_o die_v for_o no_o nor_o yet_o 17.9_o yet_o
