be_v a_o sin_n of_o a_o presumptuous_a mind_n a_o sin_n with_o a_o high_a hand_n so_o that_o only_o among_o they_o will_v we_o look_v there_o be_v a_o sin_n against_o knowledge_n when_o the_o

earth_n shall_v thus_o transgress_v against_o heaven_n man_n against_o god_n yea_o it_o may_v on_o a_o sudden_a set_v a_o man_n into_o a_o stound_n and_o drive_v his_o thought_n to_o a_o perplexity_n to_o consider_v what_o further_a degree_n of_o sin_n there_o can_v be_v find_v or_o think_v of_o into_o which_o the_o son_n of_o adam_n may_v slip_v or_o plunge_v himself_o but_o let_v we_o wade_v a_o little_a deep_o origen_n as_o 16._o bellarmine_n allege_v think_v that_o every_o sin_n commit_v against_o the_o law_n of_o god_n after_o baptism_n be_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n not_o far_o from_o this_o be_v the_o novatian_o but_o athanasius_n do_v well_o refute_v this_o opinion_n first_o because_o our_o saviour_n do_v accuse_v the_o pharisee_n of_o this_o sin_n who_o yet_o never_o be_v christian_n nor_o baptize_v whereas_o the_o opinion_n of_o origen_n do_v suppose_v a_o prcedencie_n of_o baptism_n in_o those_o who_o may_v fall_v into_o this_o apostasy_n second_o because_o than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o all_o sin_n commit_v by_o christian_n shall_v be_v sin_n of_o this_o nature_n as_o be_v commit_v after_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n which_o to_o hold_v what_o be_v it_o else_o but_o to_o bar_v up_o the_o gate_n of_o heaven_n against_o all_o christian_n what_o soever_o for_o who_o be_v there_o that_o sin_v not_o and_o sin_v not_o grievous_o at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o truth_n it_o be_v that_o christian_n fall_v into_o sin_n do_v sin_n against_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n receive_v but_o we_o seek_v out_o one_o special_a sin_n which_o in_o a_o principal_a manner_n and_o for_o some_o special_a consideration_n be_v call_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n such_o be_v not_o each_o sin_n commit_v after_o baptism_n augustine_n stand_v for_o final_a impoenitencie_n viz._n when_o man_n die_v without_o repentance_n certain_o i_o can_v but_o much_o commend_v the_o censure_n that_o bellarmine_n pass_v upon_o this_o opinion_n 16_o this_o be_v true_a say_v he_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o it_o teach_v that_o final_a impoenitencie_n be_v some_o special_a sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o it_o can_v be_v defend_v if_o he_o will_v have_v this_o impoenitencie_n to_o be_v that_o peculiar_a and_o proper_a sin_n which_o we_o feeke_v for_o but_o i_o more_o commend_v his_o reason_n first_o because_o final_a impoenitencie_n be_v not_o blasphemy_n but_o only_o a_o certain_a circumstance_n in_o every_o sin_n whereas_o our_o sin_n be_v a_o blaspheme_a sin_n as_o hereafter_o shall_v appear_v in_o which_o respect_n it_o be_v call_v blasphemy_n against_o the_o spirit_n second_o this_o final_a impoenitency_n be_v not_o commit_v till_o death_n for_o which_o cause_n it_o be_v call_v final_a viz._n which_o continue_v to_o and_o in_o the_o end_n i_o suppose_v to_o distinguish_v it_o from_o the_o other_o impoenitencie_n a_o species_n of_o sin_n of_o malice_n which_o according_a to_o their_o doctrine_n may_v be_v forgive_v in_o this_o life_n but_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v commit_v in_o this_o life_n the_o which_o he_o confirm_v first_o by_o the_o practice_n of_o our_o saviour_n who_o tax_v the_o pharisee_n at_o that_o time_n live_v and_o like_a enough_o to_o live_v long_o second_o by_o the_o text_n of_o paul_n to_o the_o hebrews_n 6._o necessary_o to_o be_v

that_o he_o have_v sin_v whereupon_o he_o conclude_v that_o our_o sin_n be_v not_o final_a impoenitencie_n which_o not_o before_o death_n and_o hardly_o then_o can_v be_v see_v and_o discern_v a_o
