it_o can_v never_o come_v so_o near_o unto_o god_n and_o yet_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v such_o a_o perfection_n of_o glory_n in_o we_o that_o our_o sight_n shall_v comprehend_v god_n whole_o for_o

new_a &_o unspeakable_a kind_n of_o see_v whereof_o we_o be_v now_o ignorant_a for_o so_o long_o as_o we_o walk_v by_o faith_n paul_n teach_v that_o we_o be_v stranger_n from_o he_o 2._o cor._n 5.6_o and_o so_o often_o as_o he_o yield_v himself_o to_o be_v see_v of_o the_o father_n he_o be_v not_o see_v in_o his_o be_v but_o under_o certain_a mark_n there_o then_o shall_v the_o majesty_n of_o

the_o mean_a of_o see_v be_v more_o excellent_a then_o of_o speak_v and_o that_o there_o must_v be_v heed_n take_v lest_o while_n by_o contend_v we_o seek_v how_o god_n can_v be_v see_v we_o lose_v

ought_v not_o to_o wax_v cold_a in_o we_o because_o our_o felicity_n do_v not_o yet_o appear_v for_o that_o hope_n suffice_v further_o we_o know_v that_o those_o thing_n be_v hope_v for_o which_o be_v

be_v defer_v and_o now_o because_o man_n use_v to_o flatter_v themselves_o in_o evil_n more_o than_o be_v meet_v he_o correct_v this_o wicked_a cocker_a pronounce_v that_o they_o be_v wicked_a and_o breaker_n of_o the_o law_n whosoever_o do_v sin_n for_o it_o be_v very_o credible_a that_o there_o be_v then_o such_o as_o by_o these_o flatter_n do_v extenuate_v their_o sin_n and_o make_v they_o seem_v less_o than_o they_o be_v it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o we_o sin_n because_o we_o be_v man_n but_o there_o be_v great_a odds_n between_o sin_n and_o the_o break_n of_o the_o law_n the_o apostle_n drive_v from_o they_o this_o vain_a excuse_n when_o he_o define_v sin_n to_o be_v the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n for_o his_o purpose_n be_v to_o set_v before_o they_o the_o hatred_n and_o horror_n of_o sin_n the_o name_n itself_o of_o sin_n seem_v to_o some_o to_o be_v but_o a_o light_a thing_n but_o iniquity_n or_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n can_v so_o easy_o be_v forgive_v but_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o make_v sin_n equal_a when_o he_o condemn_v all_o sinner_n of_o iniquity_n but_o he_o labour_v simp_o to_o teach_v that_o sin_n arise_v of_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n &_o that_o by_o sin_v the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n be_v break_v wherefore_o this_o doctrine_n of_o john_n have_v none_o agreement_n with_o that_o dote_a paradox_n of_o the_o stoikes_n furthermore_o to_o sin_n in_o this_o place_n do_v not_o signify_v to_o offend_v in_o some_o work_n nor_o be_v the_o name_n of_o sin_n take_v for_o everye_o offence_n but_o he_o call_v the_o sin_n when_o man_n run_v headlong_o into_o evil_a with_o the_o whole_a affection_n of_o the_o hart_n and_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v the_o other_o sin_n except_o they_o which_o be_v addict_v to_o sin_n neither_o be_v the_o faithful_a who_o be_v still_o entangle_v with_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o flesh_n take_v for_o wicked_a albeit_o they_o be_v not_o clean_a and_o pure_a from_o sin_n but_o because_o sin_n do_v not_o reign_v in_o they_o john_n say_v that_o they_o sin_v not_o as_o i_o will_v anon_o express_v more_o at_o large_a the_o sum_n of_o this_o sentence_n be_v that_o their_o wicked_a life_n who_o give_v themselves_o leave_v to_o sin_n be_v abominable_a to_o god_n and_o can_v be_v endure_v of_o he_o see_v it_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o law_n hence_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v nor_o can_v it_o be_v gather_v that_o the_o faithful_a be_v wicked_a because_o they_o desire_v to_o be_v subject_a to_o god_n &_o they_o mislike_v with_o themselves_o because_o of_o their_o sin_n &_o that_o for_o every_o offence_n and_o again_o as_o much_o as_o in_o they_o lie_v they_o frame_v their_o life_n to_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o law_n but_o where_o the_o desire_n or_o
