all_o his_o posterity_n be_v not_o punish_v with_o the_o second_o death_n make_v god_n changeable_a in_o what_o he_o have_v absolute_o decree_v ergo_fw-la your_o opinion_n be_v false_a and_o erroneous_a the_o major_a part_n of_o the_o argument_n i_o suppose_v will_v not_o be_v deny_v and_o that_o you_o know_v well_o that_o god_n change_v not_o and_o therefore_o the_o son_n of_o jacob_n be_v not_o consume_v the_o minor_a i_o shall_v thus_o prove_v from_o gen._n 2.17_o which_o faith_n but_o of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n thou_o shall_v not_o eat_v of_o it_o for_o in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v or_o in_o die_v thou_o shall_v die_v here_o we_o may_v see_v god_n do_v absolute_o decree_n and_o also_o declare_v his_o decree_n that_o if_o adam_n do_v transgress_v that_o law_n he_o shall_v die_v now_o if_o that_o death_n include_v there_o do_v presuppose_v the_o second_o death_n as_o well_o as_o the_o first_o than_o if_o all_o do_v not_o die_v the_o second_o death_n as_o well_o as_o the_o first_o god_n justice_n be_v not_o satisfy_v but_o his_o decree_n frustrate_v for_o god_n can_v bring_v any_o secondary_a mean_n to_o frustrate_v that_o which_o he_o have_v absolute_o decree_v or_o disappoint_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o his_o justice_n when_o i_o say_v he_o can_v my_o meaning_n be_v this_o that_o the_o will_n of_o god_n with_o the_o attribute_n of_o his_o truth_n do_v guide_v the_o attribute_n of_o his_o power_n so_o that_o he_o can_v do_v nothing_o but_o what_o be_v righteous_a according_a to_o truth_n if_o god_n may_v bring_v a_o secondary_a mean_n to_o disappoint_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o his_o justice_n he_o may_v as_o well_o bring_v a_o secondary_a mean_n to_o disappoint_v the_o satisfaction_n of_o his_o mercy_n whereby_o the_o justice_n of_o his_o mercy_n be_v not_o execute_v in_o plaineness_n of_o word_n my_o meaning_n be_v this_o that_o if_o the_o lord_n will_v after_o he_o have_v say_v adam_n shall_v die_v and_o all_o his_o eternal_o and_o yet_o afterwards_o prepare_v life_n and_o glory_n for_o so_o many_o of_o they_o as_o will_v accept_v of_o it_o may_v he_o not_o as_o well_o prepare_v a_o hell_n for_o person_n who_o have_v continue_v faithful_a unto_o death_n who_o reward_n be_v a_o crown_n of_o life_n but_o now_o to_o answer_v a_o objection_n or_o two_o obj._n 1._o the_o first_o objection_n be_v from_o the_o example_n of_o niniveh_n for_o the_o lord_n say_v forty_o day_n and_o niniveh_n shall_v be_v destroy_v and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o destroy_v from_o which_o word_n many_o conclude_v that_o god_n do_v change_v in_o his_o decree_n ans._n creature_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o god_n do_v not_o change_v his_o decree_n but_o do_v decree_n to_o change_v his_o dispensation_n of_o mercy_n or_o judgement_n according_a to_o the_o creature_n obedience_n or_o disobedience_n for_o god_n have_v declare_v his_o decree_n long_o before_o jonah_n be_v send_v to_o niniveh_n that_o at_o what_o instant_a be_v speak_v of_o a_o nation_n or_o kingdom_n to_o pluok_v up_o or_o destroy_v if_o they_o do_v repent_v of_o their_o evil_n he_o will_v repent_v of_o the_o evil_n he_o think_v to_o do_v unto_o they_o jerem._n 18.7_o but_o we_o see_v niniveh_n do_v repent_v from_o the_o king_n on_o the_o throne_n to_o the_o beggar_n on_o the_o dunghill_n and_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o god_n can_v not_o destroy_v they_o though_o he_o tell_v jonah_n he_o do_v intend_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o concerning_o they_o and_o thus_o we_o see_v god_n do_v not_o alter_v in_o his_o decree_n although_o he_o do_v decree_n to_o alter_v his_o dispensation_n of_o mercy_n or_o judgement_n according_a to_o the_o creature_n act_n hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v though_o adam_n shall_v have_v enjoy_v all_o paradisical_a glory_n and_o not_o be_v root_v up_o for_o ever_o yet_o for_o his_o disobedience_n he_o be_v root_v up_o and_o drive_v out_o of_o the_o garden_n with_o the_o loss_n of_o all_o that_o aforesaid_a enjoyment_n and_o god_n that_o see_v thing_n before_o time_n that_o shall_v be_v in_o time_n and_o call_v thing_n that_o shall_v be_v as_o if_o they_o be_v see_v adam_n the_o very_a same_o day_n that_o he_o do_v transgress_v not_o only_o die_v in_o die_v thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v but_o also_o see_v adam_n and_o his_o posterity_n return_v unto_o earth_n from_o whence_o he_o be_v take_v so_o the_o sentence_n be_v true_a in_o his_o account_n that_o call_v thing_n that_o shall_v be_v as_o if_o they_o be_v so_o much_o brief_o to_o the_o first_o objection_n obj._n 2._o the_o second_o objection_n be_v that_o the_o promise_n do_v intervene_v adam_n sin_n and_o the_o sentence_n ans._n i_o answer_v that_o make_v not_o to_o the_o take_v away_o of_o the_o punishment_n of_o it_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v though_o the_o promise_n have_v be_v make_v flesh_n and_o dwell_v among_o we_o and_o have_v be_v dead_a and_o rise_v again_o yet_o no_o whit_n of_o the_o punishment_n be_v abate_v so_o that_o god_n can_v as_o well_o cease_v to_o be_v as_o he_o can_v cease_v to_o be_v unfaithful_a in_o the_o true_a execution_n of_o the_o attribute_n of_o his_o justice_n or_o mercy_n but_o i_o conceive_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o promise_n do_v intervene_v be_v because_o he_o will_v not_o leave_v his_o creature_n without_o some_o comfort_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v adam_n there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o thou_o may_v have_v eat_v of_o every_o tree_n in_o the_o garden_n unless_o that_o tree_n in_o the_o midst_n and_o in_o pleasure_n and_o not_o in_o sorrow_n but_o now_o thou_o shall_v eat_v in_o sorrow_n all_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o life_n until_o thou_o return_v unto_o that_o lump_n of_o earth_n from_o whence_o thou_o be_v take_v therefore_o thou_o may_v see_v what_o thou_o have_v get_v by_o harken_v to_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o serpent_n and_o thy_o wife_n yet_o this_o
rich_a yet_o for_o your_o sake_n he_o become_v poor_a that_o you_o through_o his_o poverty_n may_v be_v make_v rich_a thus_o the_o lord_n jesus_n make_v himself_o of_o no_o reputation_n and_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n and_o become_v obedient_a to_o death_n even_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v this_o his_o great_a love_n do_v extend_v itself_o to_o we_o when_o we_o by_o nature_n be_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n as_o well_o as_o other_o scarce_o for_o a_o righteous_a man_n will_v one_o die_v yet_o peradventure_o for_o a_o good_a man_n some_o will_v even_o dare_v to_o die_v but_o god_n commend_v his_o love_n to_o we_o in_o that_o while_n we_o be_v sinner_n christ_n die_v for_o we_o rom._n 5.7_o 8._o 2_o cor._n 8.9_o phil._n 2.6_o 7_o 8._o ezek._n 16.4_o 5_o 6_o 7_o 8._o so_o that_o hence_o we_o may_v see_v the_o time_n when_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v in_o his_o mercy_n and_o pity_n to_o look_v upon_o we_o and_o offer_v unto_o we_o this_o rich_a inheritance_n four_o and_o last_o be_v move_v above_o all_o thing_n to_o seek_v this_o kingdom_n because_o of_o the_o endurableness_n of_o it_o for_o it_o will_v never_o fail_v i_fw-mi but_o will_v remain_v with_o thou_o for_o ever_o and_o ever_o as_o say_v the_o psalmist_n the_o lord_n know_v the_o day_n of_o the_o upright_a and_o his_o inheritance_n shall_v
