state_n of_o the_o controversy_n and_o the_o explication_n of_o the_o term_n 1._o when_o we_o speak_v of_o the_o light_n as_o give_v unto_o all_o man_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v and_o as_o be_v

and_o the_o depravednes_n of_o his_o affection_n it_o have_v not_o only_o a_o enlighting_a property_n but_o it_o have_v all_o these_o other_o property_n as_o to_o quicken_v to_o sanctify_v to_o

for_o that_o it_o be_v as_o impossible_a as_o to_o separate_v the_o beam_n from_o the_o sun_n for_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v one_o with_o the_o light_n that_o come_v from_o they_o forever_o yea_o

light_n from_o the_o father_n of_o light_n and_o from_o jesus_n christ_n communicate_v unto_o all_o man_n and_o which_o be_v in_o all_o man_n so_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v together_o with_o this_o

hence_o in_o scripture_n every_o good_a thing_n or_o motion_n in_o any_o man_n be_v ascribe_v unto_o god_n himself_o as_o immediate_o present_a the_o immediate_a author_n and_o worker_n of_o it_o it_o be_v god_n that_o work_v in_o you_o say_v paul_n and_o no_o man_n can_v come_v unto_o i_o say_v christ_n unless_o the_o father_n draw_v he_o and_o say_v christ_n concern_v himself_o without_o i_o you_o can_v do_v nothing_o i_o be_o the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n no_o man_n come_v unto_o the_o father_n but_o by_o i_o and_o also_o the_o whole_a work_n of_o man_n salvation_n be_v ascribe_v unto_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o quickener_n and_o comforter_n so_o that_o this_o heavenly_a seed_n of_o grace_n need_v the_o continual_a influence_n and_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o

of_o the_o visitation_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n unto_o they_o and_o also_o how_o god_n and_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o all_o but_o only_o in_o the_o saint_n and_o child_n of_o god_n according_a to_o a_o spiritual_a birth_n and_o union_n the_o three_o part_n of_o this_o treatise_n follow_v in_o which_o the_o objection_n be_v answer_v do_v more_o full_o and_o large_o give_v a_o account_n 3._o

in_o all_o age_n and_o generation_n of_o the_o world_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o this_o purpose_n there_o be_v diversity_n of_o administration_n say_v he_o but_o

plain_o appear_v i_o shall_v first_o premise_v some_o thing_n first_o i_o grant_v adam_n have_v when_o god_n make_v he_o a_o ability_n or_o power_n give_v he_o in_o a_o divine_a principle_n of_o light_n and_o life_n both_o to_o know_v and_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n second_o that_o adam_n by_o his_o fall_n come_v to_o loose_v this_o ability_n by_o lose_v the_o divine_a principle_n in_o which_o the_o ability_n stand_v which_o though_o he_o lose_v yet_o it_o remain_v in_o his_o own_o house_n but_o the_o light_n and_o life_n thereof_o become_v though_o the_o prevalency_n of_o the_o fall_n extinguish_v it_o die_v in_o he_o remain_v shut_v up_o in_o death_n till_o the_o lord_n raise_v it_o up_o again_o by_o administer_a unto_o it_o somewhat_o of_o its_o own_o nature_n that_o be_v live_v which_o he_o be_v no_o way_n oblige_v to_o do_v but_o may_v of_o adam_n have_v require_v obedience_n even_o after_o this_o loss_n because_o it_o be_v the_o fruit_n and_o consequent_a of_o his_o own_o personal_a disobedience_n three_o be_v also_o true_a this_o loss_n be_v descend_v upon_o all_o adam_n posterity_n so_o that_o as_o they_o come_v from_o he_o they_o be_v impotent_a and_o unable_a from_o any_o principle_n convey_v from_o he_o either_o to_o know_v or_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o the_o image_n of_o god_n lie_v slay_v and_o lose_v in_o they_o but_o i_o deny_v that_o this_o loss_n be_v by_o god_n impute_v unto_o adam_n posterity_n before_o their_o own_o actual_a or_o personal_a transgression_n for_o they_o bring_v not_o this_o loss_n upon_o themselves_o they_o have_v then_o no_o personal_a be_v but_o adam_n bring_v it_o upon_o they_o object_n if_o they_o say_v they_o bring_v it_o upon_o themselves_o because_o be_v in_o adam_n they_o sin_v though_o not_o personal_o and_o actual_o when_o he_o sin_v and_o so_o his_o sin_n be_v their_o sin_n answ._n i_o reply_v that_o all_o man_n be_v in_o adam_n when_o he_o sin_v this_o import_v no_o more_o then_o that_o adam_n be_v the_o stock_n or_o root_n of_o all_o mankind_n but_o not_o that_o all_o man_n have_v a_o personal_a existence_n in_o adam_n therefore_o i_o deny_v that_o they_o can_v be_v say_v to_o have_v sin_v in_o adam_n that_o be_v to_o say_v as_o the_o word_n adam_n signify_v the_o first_o man_n that_o be_v make_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o there_o be_v no_o ground_n for_o it_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v therefore_o a_o mere_a deceitful_a figment_n invent_v to_o blind_v the_o mind_n of_o people_n from_o the_o truth_n for_o the_o scripture_n testimony_n be_v plain_a that_o every_o man_n shall_v give_v a_o account_n to_o god_n for_o the_o thing_n do_v by_o himself_o personal_o and_o that_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o father_n shall_v not_o be_v impute_v to_o the_o child_n unless_o they_o follow_v their_o example_n by_o actual_a transgression_n object_n but_o say_v they_o as_o levi_n pay_v tithe_n to_o melchisedech_n in_o abraham_n so_o do_v adam_n son_n and_o daughter_n sin_n in_o he_o answ._n i_o deny_v the_o consequence_n and_o if_o this_o argument_n do_v any_o thing_n it_o overdo_v and_o prove_v against_o themselves_o that_o child_n be_v guilty_a of_o all_o the_o sin_n not_o only_o of_o adam_n but_o of_o all_o their_o forefather_n whereas_o themselves_o say_v they_o be_v not_o guilty_a of_o any_o but_o adam_n first_o sin_n only_o they_o must_v needs_o then_o say_v that_o infant_n be_v not_o guilty_a of_o sin_n mere_o &_o simple_o because_o descend_v from_o adam_n but_o because_o of_o some_o special_a covenant_n or_o transaction_n which_o god_n make_v with_o adam_n and_o with_o all_o his_o posterity_n in_o he_o by_o reason_n of_o which_o his_o sin_n shall_v be_v their_o sin_n even_o before_o their_o own_o actual_a transgression_n but_o let_v they_o prove_v this_o if_o they_o can_v for_o we_o deny_v it_o as_o another_o figment_n of_o the_o same_o calibre_fw-fr with_o the_o former_a not_o that_o we_o deny_v that_o there_o be_v a_o covenant_n &_o transaction_n make_v &_o that_o when_o adam_n sin_v his_o child_n thereby_o suffer_v a_o great_a loss_n so_o as_o to_o come_v dead_a into_o the_o world_n as_o to_o spiritual_a life_n and_o to_o have_v a_o seed_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o evil_n transmit_v unto_o they_o from_o he_o but_o this_o i_o say_v can_v be_v impute_v unto_o they_o as_o if_o they_o have_v lose_v it_o or_o bring_v it_o upon_o themselves_o or_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o their_o sin_n no_o that_o be_v false_a it_o be_v the_o punishment_n and_o consequent_a of_o adam_n sin_n only_o and_o as_o to_o these_o word_n levi_n pay_v tithe_n in_o abraham_n the_o apostle_n do_v not_o absolute_o say_v so_o but_o qualify_v it_o with_o a_o as_o i_o may-so-say_a etc._n etc._n which_o plain_o imply_v that_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v strict_o object_n but_o say_v they_o how_o can_v god_n punish_v infant_n with_o this_o loss_n if_o they_o have_v not_o be_v guilty_a with_o adam_n answ._n it_o be_v not_o to_o speak_v proper_o their_o punishment_n nor_o can_v it_o prove_v they_o sinner_n no_o more_o than_o that_o the_o curse_n that_o come_v upon_o the_o earth_n through_o adam_n sin_n be_v a_o punishment_n to_o it_o as_o well_o as_o to_o adam_n or_o that_o it_o be_v guilty_a adam_n bring_v this_o loss_n upon_o his_o child_n nor_o be_v it_o unrighteous_a in_o god_n to_o suffer_v he_o so_o to_o do_v though_o they_o be_v guiltless_a of_o it_o just_o as_o if_o adam_n shall_v have_v lay_v violent_a hand_n upon_o any_o of_o his_o child_n or_o any_o man_n now_o shall_v do_v the_o like_a it_o be_v no_o unrighteousness_n in_o god_n to_o suffer_v such_o a_o thing_n and_o yet_o this_o murder_n can_v be_v impute_v to_o the_o poor_a child_n as_o if_o they_o be_v guilty_a of_o it_o and_o indeed_o just_a thus_o it_o be_v adam_n as_o it_o may_v be_v say_v do_v by_o his_o sin_n murder_v his_o child_n for_o have_v he_o not_o sin_v his_o posterity_n shall_v not_o have_v come_v into_o the_o world_n with_o a_o dead_a image_n and_o bring_v the_o very_a seed_n of_o the_o serpent_n image_n along_o with_o they_o which_o in_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o be_v sin_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o purity_n and_o righteousness_n of_o god_n nature_n which_o be_v the_o first_o law_n but_o still_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o their_o sin_n nor_o impute_v unto_o they_o before_o their_o actual_a transgression_n now_o let_v none_o through_o ignorance_n or_o prejudice_n say_v that_o we_o herein_o deny_v original_a sin_n for_o original_a sin_n in_o the_o true_a sense_n we_o deny_v not_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o there_o be_v a_o seed_n of_o sin_n transmit_v from_o adam_n unto_o all_o his_o posterity_n in_o the_o natural_a birth_n which_o become_v the_o origine_fw-la source_n and_o spring_n or_o root_n of_o all_o actual_a transgression_n where_o ever_o it_o spring_v up_o in_o which_o all_o sin_n be_v commit_v but_o we_o say_v this_o be_v not_o man_n sin_n nor_o impute_v unto_o they_o before_o actual_a transgression_n of_o the_o propagation_n of_o sin_n thus_o in_o a_o corrupt_a seed_n the_o scripture_n do_v indeed_o declare_v but_o no_o where_o that_o this_o seed_n be_v the_o sin_n of_o infant_n or_o that_o god_n charge_v it_o upon_o they_o before_o their_o actual_a transgression_n yet_o this_o figment_n they_o will_v fain_o hammer_v out_o from_o those_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 5_o 12_o 14_o 18._o but_o i_o shall_v plain_o show_v that_o these_o word_n do_v prove_v no_o such_o thing_n verse_n 12._o say_v by_o one_o man_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n so_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n for_o that_o all_o have_v sin_v now_o we_o grant_v that_o sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n by_o adam_n
