every_o one_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v that_o have_v the_o least_o sin_n in_o his_o sight_n for_o if_o we_o have_v the_o least_o sin_n in_o god_n sight_n we_o do_v not_o continue_v in_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o must_v needs_o be_v accurse_v of_o god_n or_o else_o his_o righteous_a nature_n must_v needs_o be_v changeable_a in_o his_o definitive_a sentence_n against_o sin_n which_o can_v be_v fearful_a example_n hereof_o be_v first_o the_o angel_n who_o although_o they_o be_v most_o glorious_a creature_n for_o pure_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n yet_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o conceive_v but_o one_o sin_n but_o in_o thought_n only_o god_n spare_v they_o not_o say_v peter_z that_o sin_v but_o cast_v they_o down_o into_o hell_n and_o deliver_v they_o into_o

verse_n 16._o now_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n can_v but_o curse_v and_o cast_v away_o out_o of_o his_o love_n and_o favour_n the_o creature_n that_o have_v any_o sin_n in_o god_n sight_n be_v because_o the_o horrible_a filthiness_n of_o sin_n be_v such_o to_o god_n infinite_a pure_a and_o righteous_a nature_n that_o god_n can_v but_o detest_v hate_v abhor_v and_o count_v abominable_a the_o creature_n in_o who_o he_o see_v any_o sin_n or_o that_o have_v the_o least_o sin_n in_o his_o sight_n as_o these_o and_o such_o like_a scripture_n teach_v behold_v the_o heaven_n be_v unclean_a in_o

spiritual_o foul_a filthy_a loathsome_a and_o abominable_a in_o god_n sight_n though_o no_o curse_n or_o punishment_n shall_v follow_v upon_o the_o same_o as_o christ_n himself_o also_o testify_v mark_n 7._o 20._o to_o 23._o saying_n that_o which_o come_v out_o of_o the_o man_n that_o defile_v the_o man_n for_o out_o of_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n come_v evil_a thought_n adultery_n
