A91862	ʼIgeret HaMaskil Iggeret hammashkil. Or, An admonitory epistle unto Mr Rich. Baxter, and Mr Tho. Hotchkiss, about their applications (or mis-applications rather) of several texts of Scripture (tending cheifly) to prove that the afflictions of the godly are proper punishments. Unto which are prefixed two dissertations; the one against Mr. Baxter's dangerous problems and positions, about the immanent acts of Gods knowledge and will, as if any of those could be said (without blasphemy) to begin in God, in time, and not to be eternal as himself is: or, as if God could be said (without derogation to His infinite perfections) to begin to know and will in time, any thing which He did not know and will before, yea from all eternity: the other, both against Mr. Baxter and Mr. Hotchkiss, about their definition of pardon and remission of sins, in opposition to great Doctor Twisse's definition of pardon, as it is in God from all eternity towards his elect in Christ. / By William Robertson, Mr. of Arts from the University of Edenburgh.

thereof_o that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o so_o come_v to_o he_o by_o true_a faith_n he_o he_o will_v in_o no_o way_n cast_v out_o and_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o have_v eternal_a life_n and_o that_o this_o be_v do_v according_a to_o the_o purpose_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o this_o be_v the_o will_n of_o the_o father_n that_o of_o all_o those_o who_o be_v give_v unto_o the_o son_n and_o who_o come_v unto_o he_o by_o save_v faith_n not_o any_o one_o shall_v perish_v this_o be_v certain_a then_o that_o god_n have_v purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v with_o eternal_a death_n the_o sin_n of_o any_o true_a believer_n i_o say_v that_o this_o purpose_n and_o intention_n be_v in_o god_n at_o least_o when_o any_o one_o do_v actual_o believe_v even_o according_a to_o your_o own_o principle_n to_o wit_n not_o to_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o any_o true_a believer_n with_o eternal_a death_n be_v past_a question_n but_o sir_n say_v i_o than_o your_o definition_n be_v undo_v as_o to_o the_o perfection_n of_o it_o in_o opposition_n to_o twisse_n definition_n of_o pardon_n for_o this_o you_o will_v grant_v i_o which_o i_o will_v lay_v down_o for_o a_o ground_n that_o what_o once_a god_n have_v purpose_v he_o have_v immutable_o purpose_v it_o and_o can_v change_v it_o if_o you_o deny_v it_o let_v the_o world_n once_o know_v the_o atheism_n of_o such_o a_o principle_n and_o i_o hope_v it_o shall_v be_v soon_o hiss_v out_o but_o a_o believer_n who_o god_n have_v thus_o once_o immutable_o purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v with_o eternal_a death_n and_o so_o who_o he_o have_v immutable_o pardon_v as_o to_o that_o punishment_n and_o therefore_o who_o never_o can_v be_v unpardoned_a again_o in_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n because_o that_o purpose_n not_o to_o punish_v with_o eternal_a death_n can_v never_o be_v recall_v again_o yet_o i_o say_v even_o such_o a_o one_o may_v fall_v grievous_o though_o not_o total_o nor_o final_o because_o god_n will_v perfect_v the_o good_a work_n of_o grace_n begin_v in_o he_o in_o the_o time_n and_o by_o the_o mean_v he_o think_v meet_a from_o his_o first_o love_n not_o only_o by_o heinous_a sin_v against_o god_n actual_o but_o by_o continue_v in_o a_o habitual_o sinful_a condition_n for_o so_o long_a a_o time_n too_o too_o much_o sad_a experience_n do_v doleful_o testify_v this_o to_o be_v too_o true_a alas_o for_o it_o yet_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o lord_n stand_v sure_a and_o he_o know_v who_o be_v his_o own_o choose_a one_o who_o he_o have_v immutable_o purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v with_o eternal_a death_n so_o that_o he_o will_v never_o change_v that_o purpose_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v full_o and_o perfect_o pardon_v in_o his_o breast_n for_o ever_o as_o to_o that_o punishment_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o time_n of_o that_o their_o foresay_a sinful_a estate_n and_o condition_n the_o law_n threaten_v they_o and_o oblige_v they_o to_o punishment_n for_o their_o sin_n even_o to_o no_o less_o than_o eternal_a punishment_n for_o such_o it_o threaten_v to_o all_o universal_o live_v in_o such_o sin_n as_o even_o a_o believer_n may_v fall_v and_o continue_v in_o for_o a_o season_n here_o the_o person_n be_v pardon_v in_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n as_o to_o eternal_a punishment_n for_o he_o have_v immutable_o purpose_v never_o to_o inflict_v that_o upon_o he_o because_o a_o believer_n though_o in_o a_o backslide_a condition_n and_o yet_o the_o obligation_n of_o the_o law_n unto_o that_o same_o punishment_n be_v not_o dissolve_v actual_o as_o to_o he_o live_v in_o such_o a_o impenitent_a and_o sinful_a condition_n at_o least_o this_o must_v be_v most_o certain_a according_a to_o the_o baxterian_a principle_n which_o do_v acknowledge_v no_o sin_n to_o be_v pardon_v and_o so_o the_o obligation_n of_o the_o law_n to_o punishment_n for_o it_o not_o to_o be_v dissolve_v before_o it_o be_v commit_v and_o till_o the_o sinner_n actuate_v faith_n and_o repentance_n about_o it_o nay_o it_o threaten_v he_o with_o it_o and_o bind_v he_o over_o to_o it_o as_o just_o deserve_v it_o because_o of_o his_o live_n and_o walk_v in_o such_o sin_n therefore_o pardon_n be_v not_o the_o dissolve_v of_o the_o law_n obligation_n to_o punishment_n because_o here_o there_o be_v pardon_n or_o a_o purpose_n not_o to_o punish_v with_o eternal_a death_n in_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n which_o perfect_o pardon_v absolve_v and_o free_v he_o from_o the_o real_a danger_n of_o that_o death_n which_o be_v a_o real_a and_o a_o perfect_a pardon_n from_o the_o punishment_n thereof_o and_o yet_o the_o law_n be_v not_o dissolve_v from_o its_o obligation_n of_o he_o to_o that_o punishment_n but_o be_v of_o force_n against_o he_o bind_v he_o over_o to_o it_o as_o his_o due_a desert_n in_o himself_o because_o of_o his_o sin_n and_o so_o sinful_a a_o condition_n therefore_o these_o two_o be_v not_o all_o one_o to_o wit_n pardon_v from_o eternal_a punishment_n and_o the_o dissolve_v of_o the_o law_n obligation_n unto_o that_o punishment_n for_o here_o in_o this_o case_n they_o be_v sever_v and_o real_o separate_v one_o from_o the_o other_o therefore_o they_o be_v real_o distinct_a one_o from_o the_o other_o and_o hence_o the_o one_o can_v be_v the_o nature_n and_o express_v the_o definition_n of_o the_o other_o i_o do_v profess_v i_o do_v here_o again_o and_o more_o than_o ever_o stand_v a_o little_a and_o amuse_v myself_o what_o can_v be_v answer_v by_o you_o especial_o upon_o the_o baxterian_a semi-arminian_n principle_n which_o go_v so_o nigh_o to_o affirm_v that_o such_o a_o man_n in_o such_o a_o case_n shall_v be_v look_v upon_o as_o quit_v and_o total_o fall_v away_o from_o grace_n and_o that_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n do_v dissolve_v the_o obligation_n to_o punishment_n for_o no_o actual_a know_v sin_n far_o less_o to_o a_o habitual_a live_n in_o sin_n for_o a_o time_n till_o actual_a faith_n and_o repentancc_fw-la be_v new_o perform_v but_o here_o the_o sinner_n be_v suppose_v to_o lie_v not_o only_o in_o a_o sinful_a but_o in_o a_o impenitent_a condition_n so_o that_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n can_v dissolve_v he_o in_o such_o a_o condition_n from_o the_o obligation_n of_o the_o law_n of_o death_n to_o the_o punishment_n thereof_o and_o yet_o he_o that_o shall_v say_v that_o in_o the_o suppose_a case_n wherein_o the_o person_n be_v suppose_v intentional_o in_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n to_o be_v free_v and_o absolve_v from_o that_o punishment_n of_o eternal_a death_n and_o so_o to_o be_v perfect_o pardon_v as_o to_o that_o punishment_n because_o god_n be_v suppose_v immutable_o to_o have_v purpose_v not_o to_o inflict_v it_o upon_o he_o because_o one_o suppose_v also_o to_o be_v elect_v in_o christ_n and_o once_o a_o real_a and_o true_a believer_n i_o say_v that_o whosoever_o dare_v faith_fw-mi that_o such_o a_o one_o though_o in_o such_o a_o condition_n be_v not_o real_o and_o perfect_o pardon_v as_o to_o the_o punishment_n of_o eternal_a death_n he_o dare_v to_o belie_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o the_o face_n which_o show_v we_o that_o god_n be_v immutable_a in_o all_o the_o purpose_n of_o his_o will_n and_o so_o one_o once_o free_v from_o eternal_a death_n by_o a_o purpose_n thereof_o can_v never_o be_v in_o real_a danger_n of_o it_o again_o although_o he_o know_v not_o so_o much_o and_o therefore_o aught_o to_o fear_v it_o in_o himself_o and_o that_o though_o he_o chastise_v his_o child_n and_o people_n once_o in_o covenant_n with_o he_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n and_o correct_v they_o for_o their_o sin_n when_o they_o turn_v away_o from_o he_o so_o that_o a_o believe_a sinner_n in_o such_o a_o backslide_n condition_n may_v indeed_o be_v and_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o fall_v under_o many_o sad_a stroke_n of_o providential_a fatherly_a and_o castigatory_a correction_n of_o several_a sort_n for_o i_o never_o do_v say_v that_o god_n have_v purpose_v not_o to_o inflict_v upon_o he_o any_o of_o those_o temporary_a chastisement_n by_o which_o he_o use_v as_o mean_n to_o bring_v home_o to_o himself_o his_o sheep_n that_o have_v go_v astray_o from_o he_o and_o bewilder_v themselves_o by_o wander_v in_o the_o vanity_n and_o wickedness_n of_o their_o own_o invention_n for_o a_o season_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o much_o make_v a_o quarrel_n with_o the_o baxterian_a princip_n es_fw-la for_o say_v that_o believer_n be_v not_o perfect_o free_v in_o this_o life_n from_o those_o temporal_a and_o correct_a stroke_n of_o fatherly_a and_o love_a chastiment_n because_o as_o be_v say_v god_n have_v not_o purpose_v not_o to_o inflict_v such_o temporary_a correction_n upon_o they_o for_o their_o sin_n in_o their_o estrangement_n from_o he_o in_o this_o life_n yet_o i_o say_v notwithstanding_o of_o all_o those_o

be_v real_o different_a the_o one_o from_o the_o other_o the_o law_n condemn_v they_o and_o oblige_v they_o to_o punishment_n only_o they_o be_v pardon_v because_o it_o be_v the_o king_n purpose_n or_o will_n and_o pleasure_n not_o to_o punish_v they_o and_o that_o be_v their_o pardon_n according_a to_o the_o doctor_n definition_n although_o there_o be_v no_o promulgation_n or_o publish_n of_o it_o by_o the_o law_n but_o that_o it_o be_v only_o keep_v in_o the_o king_n own_o secret_a council_n and_o the_o rebel_n be_v not_o put_v to_o punishment_n but_o the_o execution_n thereof_o be_v suspend_v by_o that_o will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o the_o king_n so_o that_o the_o doctor_n definition_n be_v in_o every_o case_n the_o most_o proper_a for_o whether_o we_o say_v here_o in_o this_o case_n that_o the_o law_n stand_v in_o force_n condemn_v but_o the_o king_n will_v purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v save_v and_o pardon_n or_o although_o mr._n baxter_n deni_v that_o a_o purpose_n not_o

king_n will_v not_o to_o punish_v that_o be_v most_o perfect_o proper_o and_o primary_o pardon_v because_o the_o dissolve_v of_o the_o law_n obligation_n to_o punishment_n be_v but_o a_o consequent_a follow_v upon_o the_o king_n will_v not_o to_o punish_v and_o whether_o there_o be_v any_o thought_n of_o the_o law_n or_o not_o yea_o whether_o there_o never_o have_v be_v a_o express_a law_n make_v at_o all_o as_o the_o case_n may_v be_v suppose_v that_o the_o offence_n do_v to_o the_o king_n or_o state_n be_v such_o that_o there_o be_v no_o law_n make_v at_o all_o against_o such_o a_o offence_n although_o the_o delinquent_n do_v heinous_o offend_v the_o king_n or_o state_n thereby_o and_o if_o no_o law_n be_v make_v against_o it_o than_o the_o obligation_n of_o no_o law_n can_v be_v dissolve_v for_o the_o pardon_n of_o the_o offence_n yet_o the_o king_n will_v not_o to_o punish_v be_v proper_o &_o perfect_o pardon_v and_o therefore_o the_o baxterian_a definition_n of_o pardon_n

with_o it_o but_o 2._o for_o the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o minor_a and_o which_o be_v most_o against_o you_o both_o the_o case_n will_v be_v clear_a and_o subject_n to_o less_o exception_n to_o wit_n when_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o god_n pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n for_o i_o say_v that_o your_o definition_n of_o pardon_n do_v either_o not_o agree_v at_o all_o to_o that_o pardon_n that_o be_v in_o god_n or_o if_o it_o do_v agree_v to_o truth_n and_o to_o that_o pardon_n which_o be_v in_o god_n it_o be_v only_o in_o so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v quite_o coincident_a and_o all_o one_o with_o the_o doctor_n definition_n of_o pardon_n and_o therefore_o false_o assert_v as_o true_a as_o it_o be_v distinct_a from_o and_o take_v in_o opposition_n to_o it_o for_o you_o say_v that_o pardon_n be_v the_o dissolve_v of_o the_o law_n obligation_n to_o punishment_n but_o i_o say_v that_o this_o definition_n of_o pardon_n do_v not_o agree_v at_o all_o to_o that_o which_o be_v the_o most_o proper_a pardon_n in_o god_n to_o wit_n his_o pardon_v of_o the_o elect_a from_o eternity_n as_o to_o the_o punishment_n of_o eternal_a death_n for_o first_o god_n have_v from_o eternity_n decree_v not_o to_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o elect_a in_o christ_n with_o eternal_a death_n this_o i_o say_v be_v the_o real_a and_o cordial_a pardon_n in_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n of_o all_o the_o elect_a as_o to_o that_o punishment_n and_o yet_o they_o themselves_o be_v not_o dissolve_v by_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n from_o the_o obligation_n to_o that_o punishment_n till_o they_o believe_v so_o that_o here_o the_o elect_n be_v real_o pardon_v in_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n before_o they_o believe_v though_o they_o know_v not_o of_o it_o themselves_o as_o to_o eternal_a death_n and_o yet_o their_o obligation_n by_o the_o law_n to_o that_o death_n be_v not_o dissolve_v by_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n till_o they_o believe_v therefore_o these_o two_o be_v not_o one_o and_o the_o

but_o propose_v it_o and_o leave_v it_o to_o be_v judge_v by_o any_o rational_a consideration_n to_o wit_n that_o see_v among_o all_o rational_a man_n a_o willing_a purpose_n or_o a_o free_a

so_o that_o whosoever_o have_v such_o a_o will_n free_o not_o to_o punish_v but_o to_o accept_v into_o favour_n be_v proper_o say_v to_o pardon_n and_o forgive_v those_o offender_n and_o offence_n which_o he_o do_v so_o willing_o purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v since_o it_o be_v so_o i_o say_v among_o all_o man_n universal_o as_o when_o a_o king_n purpose_v and_o resolve_v not_o to_o punish_v he_o pardon_v and_o when_o any_o other_o private_a man_n purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v other_o man_n offence_n to_o he_o when_o it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o do_v it_o he_o pardon_v they_o whether_o it_o be_v towards_o equal_n superior_n or_o inferior_n then_o also_o when_o god_n purpose_v free_o not_o to_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o his_o elect_a in_o christ_n with_o eternal_a death_n do_v he_o not_o real_o perfect_o and_o proper_o pardon_v they_o as_o to_o that_o punishment_n and_o be_v he_o not_o proper_o say_v to_o do_v so_o nay_o do_v he_o not_o then_o far_o more_o perfect_o pardon_n when_o he_o purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v than_o any_o man_n do_v because_o a_o man_n may_v resolve_v now_o not_o to_o punish_v and_o afterward_o change_v in_o his_o resolution_n but_o our_o god_n be_v the_o lord_n jehovah_n who_o change_v not_o in_o his_o resolution_n but_o be_v immutable_a in_o all_o the_o purpose_n of_o his_o will_n and_o if_o so_o then_o do_v he_o perfect_o pardon_v all_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o his_o elect_a in_o christ_n even_o from_o eternity_n because_o first_o he_o have_v purpose_v not_o to_o punish_v they_o with_o eternal_a death_n and_o second_o all_o his_o
