than_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o immediate_a parent_n be_v make_v we_o i_o know_v peter_n martyr_n and_o he_o quote_v bucer_n be_v of_o a_o mind_n that_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o immediate_a parent_n be_v make_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o posterity_n and_o austin_n incline_v much_o to_o that_o way_n but_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o confute_v it_o that_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 5._o do_v still_o lay_v death_n upon_o one_o man_n disobedience_n now_o if_o our_o parent_n and_o ancestor_n be_v as_o full_a a_o cause_n as_o adam_n be_v why_o shall_v the_o accusation_n be_v still_o lay_v upon_o he_o but_o of_o this_o more_o hereafter_o 6._o how_o the_o threaten_n be_v fulfil_v upon_o he_o when_o he_o do_v eat_v of_o also_o adam_n by_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n become_v mortal_a and_o in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n not_o natural_a only_o but_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a also_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n we_o need_v not_o run_v to_o the_o answer_n of_o some_o that_o this_o be_v speak_v only_o by_o way_n of_o threaten_a and_o not_o positive_o as_o that_o sentence_n upon_o the_o ninivites_n for_o these_o conclude_v therefore_o adam_n die_v not_o because_o of_o his_o repentance_n but_o adam_n do_v not_o immediate_o repent_v and_o when_o he_o do_v yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o die_v other_o read_v it_o thus_o in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o and_o then_o make_v the_o word_n absolute_a that_o follow_v thou_o shall_v die_v as_o if_o god_n have_v say_v there_o be_v no_o day_n except_v from_o thy_o death_n when_o thou_o shall_v eat_v but_o the_o common_a answer_n be_v best_a which_o take_v to_o die_v for_o to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n and_o therefore_o symmachus_n his_o translation_n be_v commend_v which_o have_v thou_o shall_v be_v mortal_a so_o that_o hereby_o be_v employ_v a_o condition_n and_o a_o change_n of_o adam_n state_n as_o soon_o as_o he_o shall_v eat_v this_o forbid_a fruit_n and_o by_o death_n we_o be_v not_o only_o to_o mean_v that_o of_o the_o

more_o eagle-eyed_a than_o philosopher_n they_o speak_v of_o death_n and_o disease_n as_o tribute_n to_o be_v pay_v they_o complain_v of_o nature_n as_o a_o stepmother_n but_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o see_v sin_n the_o cause_n of_o this_o yea_o in_o this_o threaten_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v spiritual_a death_n and_o eternal_a also_o indeed_o it_o be_v make_v a_o question_n whether_o if_o adam_n have_v continue_v he_o shall_v have_v be_v translate_v into_o heaven_n or_o confirm_v only_o in_o paradise_n but_o that_o his_o death_n will_v have_v be_v more_o than_o temporal_a appear_v

in_o the_o new_a yet_o there_o be_v sufficient_a place_n to_o convince_v that_o the_o promise_n and_o threaten_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v not_o only_o temporal_a as_o some_o do_v most_o erroneous_o maintain_v 7._o whether_o adam_n be_v mortal_a before_o his_o eat_n of_o the_o forbid_a immortal_a adam_n before_o his_o sin_n be_v immortal_a fruit_n and_o this_o indeed_o be_v a_o very_a famous_a question_n but_o i_o shall_v not_o be_v large_a in_o it_o the_o orthodox_n they_o hold_v that_o immortality_n be_v a_o privilege_n of_o innocency_n and_o that_o adam_n body_n then_o only_o become_v mortal_a when_o his_o soul_n be_v make_v sinful_a this_o be_v vehement_o oppose_v by_o papist_n and_o by_o socinian_o now_o they_o both_o agree_v that_o man_n shall_v not_o actual_o have_v dye_v but_o for_o sin_n only_o they_o say_v he_o be_v mortal_a as_o the_o socinian_o or_o immortal_a by_o a_o mere_a supernatural_a gift_n of_o god_n but_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a several_a way_n as_o the_o learned_a observe_v 1._o from_o a_o absolute_a way_n a_o thing_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a four_o way_n necessity_n either_o inward_a or_o outward_a in_o this_o sense_n god_n only_o be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a 2._o when_o there_o be_v no_o inward_a material_a cause_n of_o dissolution_n though_o outward_o it_o may_v be_v destroy_v and_o thus_o be_v angel_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n 3._o a_o thing_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v immortal_a by_o some_o special_a gift_n and_o appointment_n of_o god_n as_o the_o body_n glorify_v and_o as_o some_o say_v the_o heaven_n and_o main_a part_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v have_v only_o a_o qualitative_a alteration_n not_o a_o substantial_a abolition_n 4._o that_o be_v immortal_a which_o have_v no_o propensity_n to_o death_n yet_o such_o a_o condition_n be_v put_v it_o will_v die_v and_o thus_o adam_n be_v therefore_o in_o some_o sense_n he_o may_v be_v say_v mortal_a in_o another_o immortal_a but_o because_o he_o be_v common_o call_v mortal_a that_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o death_n therefore_o we_o say_v adam_z before_o his_o sin_n be_v immortal_a and_o this_o be_v abundant_o confirm_v by_o this_o sentence_n of_o commination_n and_o therefore_o though_o adam_n will_v have_v eat_v and_o drink_v though_o his_o body_n be_v elementary_a and_o the_o original_n of_o it_o dust_n though_o he_o will_v have_v beget_v child_n yet_o none_o of_o these_o can_v prove_v he_o mortal_a because_o the_o righteousness_n in_o his_o soul_n will_v have_v preserve_v the_o fit_a temperament_n of_o his_o body_n especial_o have_v god_n promise_v make_v to_o his_o obedience_n 8._o whether_o upon_o this_o threaten_n thou_o shall_v die_v can_v be_v fix_v die_v the_o mortality_n of_o the_o whole_a man_n can_v be_v evince_v from_o this_o threaten_n in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v die_v that_o curse_a opinion_n of_o the_o mortality_n of_o the_o whole_a man_n in_o soul_n as_o well_o as_o body_n of_o all_o the_o error_n that_o have_v rise_v up_o there_o be_v none_o more_o horrid_a in_o nature_n and_o more_o monstrous_a in_o falsehood_n then_o this_o so_o that_o if_o it_o can_v be_v true_a of_o any_o man_n soul_n that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o immaterial_a substance_n but_o only_o a_o quality_n of_o the_o temperament_n it_o will_v be_v true_a of_o the_o author_n of_o that_o book_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v little_a sense_n and_o apprehension_n of_o the_o divine_a authority_n in_o the_o scripture_n concern_v this_o matter_n what_o a_o horrid_a falsehood_n be_v it_o to_o call_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o immortal_a soul_n a_o hell-hatched_n doctrine_n but_o certain_o you_o will_v think_v for_o a_o man_n to_o dare_v to_o broach_v such_o a_o opinion_n he_o must_v have_v place_n of_o scripture_n as_o visible_a as_o the_o sun_n but_o this_o text_n be_v his_o achilles_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n shroud_v under_o this_o from_o which_o he_o frame_v his_o first_o and_o chief_a argument_n thus_o what_o of_o adam_n be_v immortal_a through_o innocency_n be_v to_o be_v mortalize_v by_o transgression_n but_o whole_a adam_n be_v in_o innocency_n immortal_a therefore_o all_o and_o every_o part_n even_o whole_a man_n be_v liable_a to_o death_n by_o sin_n but_o what_o logician_n do_v not_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o foist_v into_o the_o conclusion_n than_o be_v in_o the_o premise_n whole_a adam_n be_v to_o be_v mortalize_v therefore_o all_o and_o every_o part_n what_o a_o non_fw-la sequitur_fw-la be_v here_o that_o be_v true_a of_o the_o whole_a as_o it_o be_v the_o whole_a which_o be_v not_o true_a of_o every_o part_n if_o i_o shall_v say_v whole_a christ_n die_v for_o death_n be_v of_o the_o concrete_a the_o person_n therefore_o all_o and_o every_o part_n of_o christ_n die_v therefore_o his_o divine_a nature_n die_v this_o will_v be_v a_o strange_a inference_n yet_o upon_o this_o fallacy_n be_v the_o frame_n of_o all_o his_o argument_n build_v man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v mortal_a whole_a man_n die_v therefore_o every_o part_n of_o man_n die_v there_o be_v difference_n between_o totum_fw-la and_o totalitas_fw-la the_o whole_a and_o every_o part_n of_o that_o whole_a it_o be_v true_a death_n do_v bring_v the_o compositum_fw-la the_o person_n to_o a_o nonentity_n but_o not_o every_o part_n of_o that_o compositum_fw-la to_o a_o nonentity_n beside_o that_o which_o be_v immortal_a be_v mortalize_v according_a to_o their_o nature_n the_o soul_n die_v a_o spiritual_a and_o a_o eternal_a death_n but_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n carry_v this_o man_n further_o and_o set_v he_o upon_o the_o pinnacle_n of_o error_n and_o bid_v he_o throw_v himself_o headlong_o because_o he_o do_v evident_o say_v that_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v

grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n therefore_o who_o he_o love_v he_o will_v always_o love_v the_o next_o question_n be_v whether_o we_o may_v be_v now_o by_o christ_n say_v to_o adam_n the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n do_v not_o infer_v that_o therefore_o we_o be_v more_o righteous_a than_o adam_n be_v more_o righteous_a than_o adam_n for_o so_o a_o antinomian_a in_o his_o treatise_n of_o justification_n pag._n 320._o 321._o quote_v place_n out_o of_o some_o author_n as_o affirm_v this_o that_o now_o by_o christ_n we_o have_v a_o more_o perfect_a righteousness_n then_o that_o of_o angel_n or_o be_v lose_v in_o adam_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n labour_n to_o prove_v that_o we_o be_v so_o holy_a that_o god_n can_v see_v no_o sin_n in_o we_o now_o to_o answer_v this_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o the_o orthodox_n sometime_o have_v use_v such_o expression_n and_o upon_o this_o ground_n because_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v he_o be_v of_o infinite_a value_n and_o consequence_n and_o so_o as_o we_o be_v in_o a_o mediator_n we_o be_v in_o a_o better_a and_o sure_a condition_n than_o the_o angel_n or_o adam_n be_v but_o they_o never_o use_v such_o expression_n to_o the_o antinomian_a sense_n as_o if_o hereby_o we_o be_v make_v not_o only_o perfect_o righteous_a but_o also_o holy_a and_o without_o sin_n this_o opinion_n be_v at_o large_a to_o be_v refute_v in_o the_o treatise_n about_o justification_n only_o thus_o much_o take_v for_o a_o answer_n that_o the_o doctrine_n which_o hold_v the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n do_v not_o necessary_o infer_v that_o therefore_o we_o have_v righteousness_n more_o excellent_a than_o angel_n or_o adam_n for_o it_o be_v only_o impute_v to_o we_o for_o that_o righteousness_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v it_o be_v not_o make_v we_o in_o that_o largeness_n or_o latitude_n as_o it_o be_v christ_n but_o as_o we_o need_v it_o now_o god_n never_o require_v of_o we_o such_o a_o holiness_n as_o the_o angel_n have_v or_o a_o great_a righteousness_n than_o adam_n have_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o senseless_a thing_n to_o imagine_v that_o that_o shall_v be_v make_v we_o which_o we_o never_o need_v or_o ever_o be_v bind_v to_o have_v so_o that_o those_o expression_n of_o the_o orthodox_n must_v be_v understand_v in_o a_o sound_a sense_n 7._o whether_o that_o which_o god_n require_v of_o we_o be_v great_a then_o that_o he_o innocency_n what_o god_n require_v of_o we_o be_v not_o great_a than_o what_o he_o demand_v of_o adam_n in_o innocency_n demand_v of_o adam_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n for_o thus_o the_o arminian_o hold_v that_o great_a ability_n be_v now_o require_v of_o a_o man_n to_o believe_v the_o gospel_n than_o be_v of_o adam_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n partly_o because_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v consist_v in_o mere_a revelation_n which_o the_o law_n do_v not_o as_o also_o because_o all_o the_o action_n require_v by_o the_o gospel_n do_v suppose_v a_o resurrection_n from_o that_o first_o fall_n now_o say_v they_o more_o be_v require_v to_o rise_v from_o a_o fall_n then_o to_o prevent_v a_o fall_n and_o all_o this_o they_o urge_v to_o prove_v the_o necessity_n of_o universal_a grace_n give_v to_o all_o now_o to_o answer_v this_o first_o i_o conclude_v as_o before_o have_v be_v prove_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o justify_v faith_n be_v in_o adam_n though_o there_o be_v not_o such_o a_o particular_a object_n about_o which_o it_o may_v be_v exercise_v for_o a_o thing_n may_v be_v for_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o not_o have_v such_o a_o name_n which_o it_o have_v from_o a_o certain_a respect_n to_o some_o object_n that_o now_o be_v not_o or_o from_o some_o effect_n which_o it_o can_v now_o produce_v so_o mercy_n and_o grace_n be_v in_o god_n for_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o always_o but_o as_o it_o have_v respect_n to_o a_o miserable_a and_o wretched_a creature_n that_o be_v not_o till_o the_o creature_n be_v make_v so_o and_o so_o in_o adam_n there_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o love_n and_o pity_n but_o yet_o in_o regard_n of_o some_o effect_n which_o can_v not_o be_v exercise_v in_o that_o estate_n his_o love_n can_v have_v no_o such_o name_n as_o mercy_n or_o pity_n thus_o adam_n for_o his_o faith_n that_o faith_n which_o he_o do_v put_v forth_o in_o god_n promise_n about_o eternal_a life_n upon_o his_o obedience_n be_v a_o justify_v faith_n for_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o but_o have_v not_o the_o denomination_n or_o respect_n of_o justify_v because_o such_o a_o object_n be_v impossible_a in_o that_o condition_n hence_o that_o faith_n of_o dependency_n which_o adam_n have_v be_v the_o same_o in_o nature_n which_o justify_v faith_n be_v therefore_o to_o the_o argument_n propose_v we_o deny_v that_o great_a strength_n be_v require_v to_o rise_v then_o to_o keep_v from_o fall_v for_o the_o same_o thing_n which_o will_v have_v preserve_v adam_n from_o fall_v as_o say_v in_o the_o first_o place_n the_o same_o also_o be_v require_v for_o a_o man_n to_o rise_v and_o as_o adam_n will_v have_v stand_v as_o long_o as_o his_o faith_n in_o god_n stand_v the_o devil_n labour_v to_o shake_v that_o by_o his_o temptation_n so_o christ_n pray_v for_o peter_n a_o man_n fall_v by_o adam_n do_v especial_o pray_v that_o his_o faith_n may_v not_o fail_v because_o by_o that_o he_o be_v support_v and_o strengthen_v last_o whether_o adam_n immortality_n in_o that_o estate_n be_v not_o different_a heaven_n adam_n immortality_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n different_a from_o &_o short_a of_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n from_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n yes_o it_o be_v very_o plain_a it_o be_v so_o for_o he_o be_v so_o

first_o estate_n be_v natural_o immortal_a for_o if_o death_n have_v be_v natural_a god_n have_v be_v the_o author_n of_o death_n and_o man_n will_v not_o have_v abhor_v it_o neither_o do_v christ_n
