the_o great_a transgression_n of_o the_o one_o with_o the_o great_a breach_n of_o the_o other_o and_o so_o likewise_o in_o the_o rest_n keep_n a_o due_a rate_n and_o equality_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v match_v together_o therefore_o notwithstanding_o we_o esteem_v not_o sin_n light_n but_o all_o in_o their_o nature_n mortal_a and_o deadly_a yet_o we_o make_v a_o great_a difference_n of_o sin_n wherefore_o if_o they_o understand_v by_o this_o distinction_n no_o other_o matter_n but_o to_o make_v a_o difference_n that_o some_o shall_v be_v great_a than_o other_o they_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o strive_v with_o us._n and_o for_o this_o what_o commodity_n it_o may_v bring_v to_o a_o common_a weal_n we_o be_v in_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n to_o look_v for_o it_o this_o be_v our_o doctrine_n but_o they_o understande_v it_o far_o otherwise_o as_o appear_v by_o the_o counsel_n of_o trent_n and_o by_o this_o author_n for_o both_o determine_v mortal_a to_o be_v such_o as_o by_o their_o nature_n and_o in_o justice_n deserve_v everlasting_a death_n wherein_o we_o also_o agree_v but_o the_o point_n of_o variance_n be_v in_o this_o that_o they_o say_v all_o sin_n be_v not_o mortal_a but_o that_o there_o be_v sin_n which_o in_o justice_n be_v not_o to_o be_v punish_v with_o everlasting_a death_n which_o kind_n of_o sin_n they_o call_v venial_a not_o understand_v that_o god_n for_o christ_n sake_n do_v forgive_v it_o those_o which_o believe_v for_o so_o we_o grant_v that_o all_o be_v venial_a for_o to_o the_o believer_n all_o shall_v be_v forgive_v and_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o imputation_n of_o any_o sin_n but_o take_v it_o in_o this_o sense_n which_o i_o have_v declare_v in_o which_o i_o deny_v any_o sin_n to_o be_v venial_a &_o affirm_v all_o to_o be_v mortal_a which_o our_o doctrine_n be_v ground_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n for_o this_o be_v general_a of_o all_o sin_n which_o the_o apostle_n without_o exception_n of_o any_o say_v that_o the_o pain_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n meaning_n everlasting_a as_o it_o appear_v there_o by_o the_o mention_n of_o life_n everlasting_a life_n in_o the_o same_o place_n and_o thus_o the_o apostle_n teach_v according_a to_o the_o law_n wherein_o it_o be_v say_v express_o curse_a be_v he_o that_o abide_v not_o in_o all_o that_o be_v command_v in_o this_o law_n but_o say_v he_o though_o your_o doctrine_n be_v true_a yet_o do_v it_o not_o stand_v with_o good_a pollcie_n which_o be_v to_o keep_v man_n in_o virtue_n and_o honesty_n as_o we_o do_v because_o if_o all_o be_v mortal_a who_o will_v strive_v against_o sin_n whereas_o admit_v all_o not_o to_o be_v mortal_a though_o a_o man_n be_v carry_v into_o a_o venial_a sin_n yet_o will_v he_o strive_v to_o refrain_v from_o mortal_a consider_v it_o bring_v damnation_n and_o though_o this_o roman_a doctrine_n be_v false_a yet_o do_v it_o more_o encourage_v man_n to_o strive_v against_o sin_n but_o i_o say_v this_o be_v to_o reason_n like_o a_o atheiste_n for_o as_o i_o have_v often_o say_v before_o there_o can_v be_v no_o doctrine_n fit_a to_o procure_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n to_o any_o state_n whereupon_o depend_v the_o wealth_n peace_n and_o honour_n of_o every_o people_n and_o common_a wealth_n but_o only_o that_o which_o be_v of_o god_n and_o therefore_o whatsoever_o he_o may_v suppose_v in_o our_o or_o their_o doctrine_n to_o be_v for_o or_o against_o a_o state_n the_o truth_n must_v needs_o be_v that_o all_o thing_n reckon_v and_o in_o the_o end_n it_o can_v never_o prove_v a_o good_a doctrine_n for_o any_o state_n that_o god_n have_v not_o teach_v nor_o that_o unproffitable_a which_o he_o have_v deliver_v us._n but_o i_o say_v further_o that_o our_o doctrine_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o doctrine_n itself_o be_v more_o to_o restrain_v from_o vice_n then_o that_o of_o they_o for_o what_o great_a encouragement_n can_v there_o be_v in_o all_o good_a reason_n and_o policy_n to_o sin_n then_o impiety_n &_o what_o strong_a restraint_n then_o grievous_a punishment_n therefore_o their_o doctrine_n which_o teach_v so_o many_o sin_n negligence_n and_o ignoraunce_n not_o to_o be_v in_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n guilty_a of_o death_n must_v needs_o hereby_o give_v encouragement_n to_o continue_v in_o ignorance_n in_o negligence_n and_o other_o such_o like_a offence_n but_o we_o which_o true_o teach_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o everlasting_a death_n to_o depend_v upon_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v more_o forceble_a to_o stir_v up_o all_o man_n to_o be_v careful_a to_o avoid_v to_o the_o uttermoste_a of_o the_o grace_n they_o have_v receive_v all_o manner_n of_o sin_n and_o if_o the_o less_o much_o more_o the_o great_a which_o have_v more_o grievous_a condemnation_n but_o he_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o these_o romanist_n in_o faith_n &_o in_o allegiaunce_n suppose_v by_o make_v all_o sin_n to_o be_v punish_v with_o death_n that_o all_o be_v teach_v to_o be_v equal_a which_o be_v nothing_o so_o for_o that_o death_n be_v not_o like_a unto_o this_o which_o be_v of_o the_o natural_a soul_n and_o body_n and_o of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o natural_a man_n but_o it_o be_v a_o deadly_a cast_v out_o of_o the_o presence_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n with_o who_o only_o be_v life_n that_o which_o in_o deed_n and_o truth_n may_v be_v so_o call_v for_o the_o comfort_n that_o be_v in_o it_o whereas_o the_o other_o be_v such_o a_o life_n as_o some_o which_o live_v in_o it_o wish_v rather_o for_o death_n and_o will_v dig_v for_o it_o as_o job_n speak_v if_o they_o may_v find_v it_o and_o desire_v that_o the_o mountain_n may_v cover_v they_o and_o the_o hill_n hide_v they_o from_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n li_v upon_o they_o therefore_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o man_n in_o the_o natural_a death_n of_o the_o body_n to_o devise_v great_a difference_n of_o torment_n so_o as_o notwithstanding_o all_o suffer_v death_n yet_o one_o may_v endure_v without_o comparison_n great_a torment_n in_o it_o then_o a_o other_o how_o much_o more_o in_o this_o case_n both_o by_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o death_n which_o they_o suffer_v and_o by_o the_o almighty_a power_n of_o god_n be_v it_o possible_a that_o notwithstanding_o all_o sin_n be_v punish_v with_o death_n yet_o there_o shall_v be_v sundry_a kind_n of_o that_o death_n &_o the_o torment_n of_o the_o one_o to_o be_v in_o comparison_n in_o themselves_o always_o horrible_a more_o easy_a and_o tolerable_a than_o a_o other_o which_o our_o saviour_n christ_n express_o teach_v speak_v of_o the_o punishment_n of_o

strong_a for_o the_o restraint_n of_o sin_n and_o their_o impunity_n most_o dangerous_a by_o encouragement_n to_o small_a offence_n to_o draw_v man_n also_o in_o time_n to_o the_o easy_a commit_v of_o the_o great_a beside_o in_o this_o their_o doctrine_n it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o they_o teach_v the_o sprinkling_a with_o a_o little_a holly_n water_n to_o be_v sufficient_a to_o take_v away_o those_o sin_n whereby_o the_o precious_a death_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v in_o this_o behalf_n make_v of_o none_o effect_n for_o if_o they_o be_v not_o mortal_a sin_n the_o punishment_n whereof_o in_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n be_v death_n then_o christ_n die_v not_o for_o they_o and_o if_o he_o do_v than_o it_o follow_v both_o that_o they_o be_v mortal_a and_o death_n the_o
