what_o god_n aim_v at_o by_o he_o because_o god_n create_v man_n after_o the_o most_o perfect_a manner_n from_o all_o which_o in_o then_o follow_v that_o the_o sinner_n can_v be_v make_v perfect_a in_o another_o way_n but_o by_o receive_v again_o that_o very_a image_n of_o god_n which_o he_o lose_v by_o sin_n §_o 64._o now_o that_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o sinner_n consist_v in_o the_o recover_n of_o this_o image_n of_o god_n the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v so_o abundant_o testify_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o hold_v forth_o unto_o we_o more_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n than_o that_o our_o salvation_n do_v consist_v in_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o image_n of_o god_n again_o as_o be_v manifest_a from_o the_o place_n by_o we_o already_o cite_v §_o 51.53_o 54_o 55._o and_o of_o which_o eph._n 4._o and_o colos_n 3._o etc._n etc._n do_v treat_v §_o 65._o but_o now_o although_o we_o have_v discover_v that_o the_o sinner_n can_v attain_v unto_o salvation_n unless_o he_o receive_v again_o the_o image_n of_o god_n yet_o this_o difficulty_n still_o remain_v in_o the_o case_n to_o find_v out_o how_o and_o by_o what_o mean_v the_o sinner_n can_v recover_v this_o image_n of_o god_n again_o §_o 66._o it_o be_v then_o a_o universal_a truth_n in_o nature_n that_o nothing_o can_v be_v meliorate_v nor_o unite_v with_o another_o thing_n so_o as_o to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n thereby_o except_o there_o be_v a_o previous_a suffering_n die_a or_o mortification_n to_o wit_n such_o a_o suffering_n death_n or_o mortification_n as_o tend_v to_o melioration_n not_o such_o a_o death_n as_o tend_v to_o putrefaction_n for_o there_o be_v these_o two_o sort_n of_o death_n as_o for_o example_n the_o seed_n pass_v through_o a_o death_n in_o order_n to_o the_o bring_v forth_o of_o fruit_n and_o sometime_o it_o die_v so_o that_o it_o remain_v in_o putrefaction_n out_o of_o which_o no_o new_a seed_n but_o worm_n be_v generate_v now_o that_o such_o a_o die_a or_o mortification_n must_v go_v before_o the_o union_n be_v manifest_a in_o tree_n who_o twig_n or_o bud_n when_o they_o be_v ingraft_v or_o inoculate_v they_o die_v as_o it_o be_v and_o wither_v before_o they_o can_v unite_v with_o the_o tree_n in_o like_a manner_n can_v no_o seed_n unite_v with_o the_o earth_n so_o as_o to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n unless_o it_o first_o die_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o our_o saviour_n say_v with_o respect_n to_o the_o profit_n which_o be_v to_o accrue_v unto_o sinner_n by_o his_o death_n john_n 12.24_o except_o a_o grain_n of_o wheat_n fall_v into_o the_o ground_n and_o die_v it_o abide_v alone_o that_o be_v it_o can_v then_o be_v unite_v with_o the_o earth_n to_o multiply_v but_o if_o it_o die_v it_o bring_v forth_o much_o fruit_n and_o 1_o cor._n 15.36_o that_o which_o thou_o sowe_v be_v not_o quicken_v except_o it_o die_v §_o 67._o now_o to_o bring_v this_o universal_a truth_n home_o unto_o fall_v man_n how_o he_o fall_v we_o shall_v show_v hereafter_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o scripture_n do_v express_o teach_v we_o that_o no_o man_n canattain_v to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n again_o so_o as_o to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n of_o righteousness_n but_o by_o a_o die_a as_o our_o saviour_n testify_v john_n 12.24_o under_o the_o similitude_n of_o a_o grain_n of_o wheat_n not_o only_o apply_v this_o unto_o himself_o that_o he_o must_v die_v in_o order_n to_o acquire_v unto_o himself_o a_o church_n or_o people_n but_o he_o also_o apply_v the_o same_o to_o they_o which_o will_v be_v his_o his_o follower_n for_o verse_n 25.26_o our_o saviour_n say_v he_o that_o love_v his_o life_n shall_v loose_v it_o that_o be_v he_o that_o fear_v to_o follow_v i_o for_o fear_n of_o death_n he_o shall_v die_v without_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n and_o he_o that_o hate_v his_o life_n in_o this_o world_n shall_v keep_v it_o unto_o life_n eternal_a that_o be_v he_o that_o fear_v not_o death_n but_o will_v cheerful_o deliver_v up_o himself_o unto_o death_n for_o my_o name_n sake_n he_o shall_v by_o his_o death_n bring_v forth_o fruit_n which_o shall_v not_o change_v but_o abide_v for_o ever_o and_o therefore_o christ_n add_v if_o any_o man_n will_v serve_v i_o let_v he_o follow_v i_o that_o be_v let_v he_o give_v himself_o cheerful_o up_o unto_o the_o death_n as_o i_o do_v now_o give_v myself_o up_o unto_o it_o and_o very_o express_o say_v the_o apostle_n col._n 3.3_o concern_v the_o faithful_a you_o be_v dead_a and_o your_o life_n be_v hide_v with_o christ_n in_o god_n and_o v._o 5._o mortify_v therefore_o your_o member_n which_o be_v upon_o earth_n etc._n etc._n now_o because_o suffer_v and_o death_n must_v go_v before_o glorification_n the_o apostle_n say_v act._n 14.22_o that_o we_o must_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n through_o much_o tribulation_n moreover_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o manner_n of_o speech_n use_v by_o the_o apostle_n concern_v the_o manner_n how_o the_o sinner_n recover_v the_o image_n or_o spirit_n of_o god_n again_o how_o emphatical_o do_v they_o represent_v unto_o we_o that_o no_o sinner_n can_v attain_v unto_o any_o fellowship_n with_o the_o spirit_n except_o a_o man_n be_v bear_v again_o he_o can_v see_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n that_o be_v if_o a_o man_n be_v not_o bear_v of_o water_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n as_o our_o saviour_n there_o further_o declare_v verse_n 5._o now_o this_o be_v certain_a that_o no_o body_n can_v be_v bear_v again_o except_o he_o first_o die_v how_o this_o regeneration_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v we_o shall_v show_v hereafter_o in_o its_o proper_a place_n and_o titus_n 3.5_o he_o have_v save_v we_o by_o ●he_n wash_v of_o regeneration_n and_o renew_v of_o ●he_n holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v 1_o peter_n 1.3_o call_v 〈◊〉_d be_v bear_v again_o through_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n from_o the_o dead_a now_o this_o be_v certain_a that_o if_o we_o be_v bear_v again_o by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n we_o must_v first_o have_v be_v dead_a wherefore_o from_o all_o this_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o no_o man_n can_v recover_v the_o image_n of_o god_n again_o but_o through_o suffer_v and_o death_n §_o 68_o but_o now_o for_o as_o much_o as_o no_o sinner_n have_v any_o the_o least_o power_n to_o give_v unto_o himself_o salvation_n according_a to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n a_o that_o every_o one_o find_v in_o his_o own_o experience_n that_o he_o be_v nncapable_a of_o cofer_v upon_o himself_o any_o perfection_n it_o follow_v that_o that_o be_v which_o restore_v he_o must_v be_v more_o perfect_a than_o the_o sinner_n himself_o and_o yet_o such_o as_o can_v unite_v and_o have_v fellowship_n with_o man_n it_o must_v be_v more_o perfect_a than_o the_o sinner_n because_o if_o he_o have_v no_o great_a perfection_n than_o he_o he_o can_v not_o impart_v unto_o the_o sinner_n that_o which_o he_o himself_o shall_v want_v it_o must_v also_o be_v such_o as_o can_v be_v unite_v and_o have_v fellowship_n with_o man_n because_o that_o which_o can_v be_v unite_v or_o have_v fellowship_n with_o another_o thing_n can_v make_v the_o thing_n better_o or_o change_v its_o state_n for_o the_o better_a because_o all_o melioration_n do_v require_v the_o most_o close_a union_n that_o be_v a_o spiritual_a union_n with_o the_o life_n of_o that_o thing_n which_o be_v change_v for_o the_o life_n be_v the_o worker_n of_o all_o our_o action_n and_o the_o former_a of_o its_o own_o body_n as_o be_v prove_v in_o the_o observation_n of_o bar._n van_n helmont_n concern_v man_n §_o 34_o 35_o 36_o 37._o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o this_o union_n be_v with_o the_o life_n itself_o that_o so_o the_o life_n may_v come_v to_o change_v its_o former_a work_n §_o 69._o moreover_o this_o be_v that_o shall_v thus_o change_v the_o sinner_n must_v not_o only_o be_v perfect_a than_o he_o but_o it_o must_v also_o be_v so_o perfect_a that_o it_o can_v give_v perfection_n unto_o other_o being_n or_o else_o it_o will_v be_v of_o no_o use_n to_o the_o sinner_n as_o for_o example_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o gold_n have_v more_o perfection_n in_o it_o than_o iron_n have_v but_o gold_n can_v therefore_o communicate_v its_o perfection_n to_o the_o iron_n while_o itself_o remain_v mere_a natural_a gold_n because_o it_o have_v no_o more_o perfection_n that_o itself_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o to_o be_v gold_n in_o like_a manner_n we_o say_v of_o all_o creature_n or_o create_a being_n none_o except_v that_o although_o they_o have_v more_o perfection_n than_o the_o sinner_n yet_o they_o can_v communicate_v their_o perfection_n to_o the_o sinner_n because_o they_o possess_v no_o more_o perfection_n than_o just_o belong_v to_o their_o own_o being_n beside_o see_v man_n be_v the_o head_n

to_o good_a or_o evil_n so_o far_o be_v it_o a_o own-working_a of_o man_n and_o because_o the_o evil_a proper_o consist_v in_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o work_n or_o action_n and_o not_o in_o the_o work_n or_o action_n itself_o it_o do_v not_o at_o all_o follow_v that_o sin_n must_v have_v its_o original_a from_o god_n because_o god_n be_v the_o original_a of_o all_o the_o work_n of_o man_n for_o that_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o work_n depend_v upon_o the_o freewill_n of_o man_n but_o not_o the_o work_n itself_o so_o that_o it_o neither_o follow_v that_o man_n must_v needs_o have_v such_o a_o own-working_a as_o take_v its_o original_a from_o himself_o and_o not_o from_o god_n nor_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o god_n because_o he_o be_v the_o original_a of_o all_o work_n must_v needs_o also_o be_v the_o cause_n and_o author_n of_o sin_n because_o work_v consider_v in_o itself_o be_v good_a but_o man_n have_v a_o freewill_n direct_v it_o to_o evil_a and_o so_o as_o to_o that_o direction_n it_o be_v in_o that_o respect_n say_v to_o be_v evil_a and_o a_o own-working_a or_o act_n of_o man_n and_o so_o in_o this_o objection_n the_o work_n and_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o work_a be_v confound_v together_o which_o yet_o as_o have_v be_v say_v be_v distinct_a beside_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o work_n of_o sin_n be_v a_o own-work_n of_o man_n here_o again_o the_o sin_n and_o the_o work_a be_v confound_v take_v the_o work_n and_o the_o sin_n to_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n because_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o distinguish_v the_o sin_n from_o the_o work_n but_o to_o understand_v this_o distinct_o we_o must_v examine_v what_o sin_n proper_o be_v and_o wherein_o it_o do_v consist_v sin_n then_o consist_v proper_o herein_o that_o man_n direct_v the_o work_a which_o he_o have_v to_o something_o else_o than_o that_o to_o which_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v use_v so_o that_o the_o sin_n lie_v not_o in_o the_o work_n in_o the_o act_n action_n work_n or_o deed_n itself_o but_o in_o the_o direction_n that_o man_n have_v over_o the_o work_a as_o for_o example_n a_o carpenter_n be_v about_o to_o use_v a_o axe_n to_o cleave_v a_o piece_n of_o wood_n so_o to_o do_v be_v good_a and_o well_o because_o it_o tend_v to_o the_o good_a of_o man_n but_o if_o he_o use_v the_o axe_n to_o kill_v a_o man_n that_o be_v evil_a now_o that_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o use_n of_o the_o axe_n be_v as_o well_o a_o work_n in_o the_o one_o as_o in_o the_o other_o case_n and_o as_o to_o these_o two_o working_n consider_v in_o themselves_o the_o one_o be_v no_o more_o evil_a than_o the_o other_o because_o they_o be_v so_o far_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o nature_n but_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o direction_n of_o those_o two_o working_n we_o shall_v find_v they_o to_o differ_v very_o much_o from_o each_o other_o to_o wit_n that_o the_o one_o be_v profitable_a and_o the_o other_o mischievous_a whence_o then_o we_o may_v clear_o see_v that_o sin_n be_v no_o work_n but_o a_o wrong_a direction_n of_o the_o work_n and_o that_o sin_n lie_v in_o that_o wrong_a direction_n we_o shall_v very_o plain_o observe_v from_o the_o name_n that_o sin_n bear_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o in_o hebrew_n it_o be_v call_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d which_o be_v a_o depart_n from_o the_o true_a way_n or_o evil_a direction_n as_o appear_v from_o prov._n 19.2_o he_o that_o haste_v with_o his_o foot_n sin_v that_o be_v he_o that_o direct_v his_o foot_n wrong_v sin_v so_o also_o in_o greek_a 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d signify_v a_o departure_n from_o the_o right_a way_n which_o consist_v in_o the_o wrong_a direction_n that_o man_n observe_v §_o 35._o see_v then_o that_o man_n have_v a_o ownworking-power_n or_o facut_o to_o direct_v his_o do_n according_a to_o his_o own_o good_a like_n it_o be_v most_o necessary_a that_o the_o most_o perfect_a be_v shall_v reward_v a_o man_n according_a to_o the_o work_n which_o he_o have_v do_v for_o if_o a_o man_n do_v not_o receive_v reward_n according_a to_o his_o work_n what_o advantage_n or_o profit_n will_v a_o man_n have_v of_o his_o do_n very_o none_n at_o all_o and_o so_o it_o will_v be_v all_o one_o what_o he_o do_v which_o yet_o will_v be_v most_o contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n for_o nothing_o be_v more_o natural_a to_o he_o than_o to_o expect_v a_o reward_n according_a to_o his_o deed_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v that_o he_o be_v present_o conscious_a to_o himself_o of_o the_o good_a or_o evil_a that_o he_o do_v which_o consciousness_n will_v be_v in_o vain_a if_o there_o be_v no_o reward_n for_o he_o to_o be_v expect_v it_o will_v in_o like_a manner_n be_v most_o contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o divine_a be_v not_o to_o reward_v man_n according_a to_o his_o work_n because_o man_n can_v then_o not_o do_v amiss_o in_o any_o thing_n he_o shall_v do_v whether_o he_o do_v thing_n contrary_a to_o god_n or_o agreeable_a to_o god_n perfection_n because_o where_o there_o be_v no_o reward_n there_o be_v no_o misdeed_n or_o transgression_n for_o these_o be_v thing_n that_o do_v necessary_o infer_v each_o other_o and_o where_o there_o be_v no_o transgression_n there_o can_v be_v no_o law_n or_o obligation_n to_o do_v the_o contrary_a and_o consequent_o what_o ever_o a_o man_n do_v will_v be_v good_a whether_o contrary_a to_o or_o agreeable_a with_o god_n perfection_n because_o he_o will_v then_o have_v no_o law_n either_o for_o the_o do_v or_o forbear_v of_o it_o now_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o it_o be_v natural_a to_o a_o reasonable_a worldly_a prince_n to_o punish_v his_o subject_n according_a to_o their_o demerit_n when_o they_o transgress_v against_o he_o and_o on_o the_o contrary_a to_o reward_v they_o that_o do_v well_o how_o much_o more_o than_o must_v this_o be_v natural_a to_o the_o most_o perfect_a be_v to_o punish_v those_o that_o transgress_v against_o he_o and_o on_o the_o contrary_a to_o reward_v they_o that_o do_v well_o yea_o if_o god_n do_v not_o punish_v they_o that_o transgress_v against_o he_o he_o shall_v never_o obtain_v his_o end_n in_o make_v they_o that_o be_v that_o they_o shall_v work_v out_o the_o good_a unto_o which_o they_o be_v create_v but_o they_o will_v more_v and_o more_o deviate_v from_o the_o good_a unto_o which_o good_a they_o must_v be_v bring_v back_o by_o mean_n of_o punishment_n for_o otherwise_o god_n can_v be_v glorify_v by_o they_o and_o consequent_o because_o god_n will_v be_v glorify_v by_o man_n he_o must_v bring_v he_o back_o again_o when_o he_o be_v become_v evil_a into_o that_o state_n in_o which_o he_o can_v glorify_v god_n now_o this_o amendment_n can_v be_v effect_v but_o by_o mean_n of_o punishment_n and_o death_n by_o which_o the_o creature_n do_v come_v into_o a_o better_a condition_n as_o be_v prove_v in_o the_o observation_n of_o bar._n van_n he●mont_n upon_o man_n etc._n etc._n §_o 32._o yea_o it_o will_v be_v confusion_n in_o god_n to_o esteem_v two_o thing_n so_o direct_o contrary_a to_o each_o other_o as_o alike_o good_a and_o worthy_a and_o to_o reward_v the_o one_o just_a as_o the_o other_o which_o confusion_n can_v have_v no_o place_n in_o god_n because_o god_n be_v a_o god_n of_o order_n according_a to_o §_o 30._o wherefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o god_n be_v not_o only_o good_a but_o also_o just_a that_o be_v that_o he_o reward_v every_o one_o according_a to_o his_o work_n §_o 36._o now_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n justice_n include_v the_o reward_v of_o every_o one_o according_a to_o his_o work_n it_o follow_v that_o god_n do_v reward_n or_o punish_v all_o they_o which_o have_v do_v the_o same_o thing_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n for_o justice_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o reward_n or_o punishment_n proportion_v to_o the_o work_n therefore_o not_o the_o person_n but_o the_o deed_n be_v consider_v and_o because_o the_o deed_n be_v still_o the_o same_o and_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v better_a or_o worse_o in_o itself_o whoever_o it_o be_v that_o do_v it_o hence_o follow_v necessary_o that_o god_n can_v reward_v or_o punish_v one_o man_n more_o than_o another_o when_o they_o have_v do_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n because_o it_o will_v be_v partial_a and_o consequent_o a_o imperfection_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o §_o 11._o as_o for_o example_n if_o a_o judge_n have_v two_o criminal_n before_o he_o that_o have_v commit_v the_o same_o crime_n shall_v punish_v one_o with_o death_n and_o clear_v the_o other_o that_o will_v be_v no_o justice_n but_o the_o high_a injustice_n unequal_a and_o unreasonable_a because_o justice_n require_v that_o the_o same_o thing_n or_o thing_n of_o
