of_o a_o man_n repentance_n after_o any_o the_o most_o heinous_a sin_n commit_v i._o it_o grant_v a_o pardon_n to_o some_o sin_n for_o though_o it_o allow_v or_o approve_v no_o sin_n yet_o it_o pronounce_v not_o damnation_n against_o every_o sin_n as_o namely_o not_o against_o any_o sin_n of_o infirmity_n such_o as_o be_v sin_n of_o ignorance_n which_o have_v we_o know_v we_o will_v not_o have_v commit_v and_o sin_n of_o subreption_n which_o escape_n without_o observe_v of_o they_o and_o which_o if_o we_o have_v note_v and_o observe_v we_o will_v not_o have_v do_v they_o and_o sin_n of_o violent_a tentation_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o some_o sudden_a assault_n do_v sway_v our_o passion_n against_o the_o right_a rule_n and_o sometime_o by_o fear_n and_o sometime_o by_o joy_n &_o sometime_o by_o hope_n do_v carry_v we_o away_o before_o we_o have_v leisure_n to_o bethink_v ourselves_o and_o in_o cool_a blood_n to_o consider_v what_o we_o be_v a_o do_v such_o sin_n as_o these_o divine_n call_v sin_n of_o infirmity_n because_o they_o arise_v not_o out_o of_o a_o evil_a purpose_n of_o the_o mind_n but_o out_o of_o humane_a frailty_n from_o which_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v free_a as_o long_o as_o we_o live_v in_o this_o body_n of_o corruption_n and_o if_o man_n commit_v such_o sin_n as_o these_o the_o gospel_n condemn_v the_o sin_n as_o evil_a &_o repugnant_a to_o god_n law_n but_o it_o condemn_v not_o the_o sinner_n for_o they_o so_o long_o as_o he_o dislike_v and_o detest_v they_o in_o his_o sober_a thought_n and_o resolution_n thus_o saint_n paul_n do_v when_o speak_v of_o such_o like_a sin_n he_o cry_v out_o as_o a_o man_n undo_v oh_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o the_o body_n of_o this_o death_n rom._n 7.24_o for_o such_o sin_n as_o these_o the_o gospel_n condemn_v we_o not_o it_o only_o condemn_v man_n for_o deliberat_fw-la content_a when_o they_o yield_v obedience_n to_o know_a sin_n and_o against_o conscience_n transgress_v the_o law_n from_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o apostle_n deliver_v unto_o we_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n say_v let_v not_o sin_n therefore_o reign_v in_o your_o mortal_a body_n that_o you_o shall_v obey_v it_o in_o the_o lust_n thereof_o rom._n 6.12_o in_o this_o passage_n when_o he_o say_v let_v not_o sin_n by_o this_o word_n he_o mean_v the_o inbred_a corruption_n of_o nature_n which_o we_o bring_v with_o we_o into_o the_o world_n and_o that_o habit_n of_o sinfulness_n which_o we_o have_v since_o contract_v by_o our_o custom_n in_o sin_v and_o by_o which_o we_o be_v every_o day_n solicit_v to_o the_o practice_n of_o actual_a sin_n and_o because_o this_o sinfulness_n do_v tempt_v and_o sway_v man_n to_o sin_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v of_o it_o let_v not_o sin_n reign_v etc._n etc._n 2._o when_o he_o say_v of_o this_o sinfulness_n let_v it_o not_o reign_v in_o your_o mortal_a body_n he_o mean_v that_o it_o shall_v not_o bear_v sway_n and_o carry_v away_o our_o consent_n to_o act_v what_o it_o sugge_v and_o to_o do_v what_o it_o command_v so_o s._n augustin_n expound_v this_o word_n non_fw-la dixit_fw-la non_fw-la sit_fw-la

unto_o it_o this_o be_v the_o rule_n prescribe_v by_o the_o gospel_n and_o here_o commend_v to_o we_o by_o our_o apostle_n and_o as_o many_o as_o walk_v according_a to_o this_o rule_n peace_n shall_v
