Occasioned by a disputation betwixt Mr. Matthias Rutton, min: of Boughton Munchalse in Kent, and the author hereof; branched out in these particulars, as followeth: I. First, an examination of his apologetical letter, with a full answer thereunto. II. Secondly, six arguments to prove that original sin exposed Adam and his posterity but to the first death. III. Thirdly, a discovery of the false and corrupted ministers by ten characters. IV. Fourthly, a discovery of the true ministers by ten characters. / By George Hammon, pastor to the Church of Christ meeting in Biddenden in Kent.

you_o say_v that_o david_n there_o confess_v any_o sin_n or_o guilt_n of_o any_o sin_n as_o he_o stand_v in_o the_o loin_n of_o his_o parent_n unless_o that_o first_o sin_n which_o as_o i_o have_v show_v you_o bring_v but_o the_o first_o death_n neithe_o have_v they_o any_o less_o perfection_n in_o quality_n of_o nature_n by_o the_o which_o they_o be_v put_v into_o a_o worse_a capacity_n to_o stand_v or_o fall_v as_o to_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o that_o eternal_a inheritance_n although_o i_o grant_v the_o first_o thing_n they_o do_v when_o they_o be_v capable_a of_o a_o law_n and_o temptation_n do_v approach_v they_o like_v their_o first_o father_n adam_n break_v the_o law_n of_o god_n as_o he_o do_v and_o these_o word_n have_v i_o speak_v as_o in_o order_n to_o the_o make_n way_n for_o the_o open_n of_o the_o word_n before_o mention_v for_o in_o the_o first_o verse_n david_n be_v a_o petition_o to_o god_n for_o mercy_n and_o pardon_n for_o that_o sin_n which_o he_o have_v commit_v in_o kill_v uriah_n and_o take_v bathsheba_n his_o wife_n unto_o himself_o in_o the_o which_o petition_v he_o use_v three_o argument_n as_o we_o may_v so_o say_v the_o first_o be_v from_o the_o multitude_n of_o god_n mercy_n in_o these_o word_n according_a to_o thy_o love_a kindness_n according_a to_o the_o multitude_n of_o thy_o mercy_n verse_n the_o first_o the_o second_o be_v from_o his_o acknowledge_n of_o his_o sin_n say_v my_o sin_n be_v ever_o before_o i_o vers._n 3._o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v they_o be_v the_o great_a trouble_n that_o i_o have_v in_o the_o world_n they_o be_v always_o in_o my_o way_n so_o that_o we_o see_v the_o second_o motive_n that_o he_o use_v to_o attain_v mercy_n be_v by_o confession_n of_o his_o sin_n with_o great_a zeal_n and_o ardency_n of_o spirit_n he_o well_o know_v that_o god_n have_v promise_v that_o he_o that_o confess_v and_o forsake_v his_o sin_n shall_v find_v mercy_n and_o the_o three_o and_o last_o argument_n which_o he_o use_v in_o this_o psalm_n to_o move_v god_n to_o have_v mercy_n upon_o he_o in_o blot_v out_o his_o transgression_n be_v from_o the_o brittleness_n of_o his_o nature_n and_o the_o weakness_n of_o that_o lump_n that_o he_o be_v make_v out_o of_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v father_n thou_o know_v i_o be_o of_o the_o earth_n earthly_a which_o be_v subject_a to_o much_o weakness_n and_o frailty_n and_o therefore_o he_o beyond_o all_o other_o reason_n in_o this_o last_o reason_n vers._n 5_o say_v behold_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v lord_n take_v notice_n as_o well_o consider_v how_o defective_a the_o mould_n be_v in_o the_o which_o i_o be_v form_v which_o to_o i_o appear_v to_o be_v his_o mother_n eva_n in_o who_o loin_n be_v david_n and_o

transgression_n this_o expression_n of_o david_n be_v not_o use_v alone_o but_o have_v the_o like_a import_n psal._n 103._o v._n 12_o 13_o 14_o in_o these_o word_n ver._n 12._o as_o far_o as_o the_o east_n be_v from_o the_o west_n so_o far_o have_v he_o remove_v our_o transgression_n from_o we_o and_o in_o the_o fourteen_o verse_n he_o give_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o gracious_a in_o these_o word_n for_o he_o know_v our_o frame_n that_o we_o be_v but_o dust_n so_o that_o i_o conceive_v in_o this_o five_o verse_n of_o the_o one_o and_o fifty_o psalm_n which_o you_o cite_v to_o i_o in_o these_o word_n behold_v i_o be_v shape_v in_o iniquity_n and_o in_o sin_n do_v my_o mother_n conceive_v i_o be_v no_o more_o but_o the_o proneness_n of_o david_n nature_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o weakness_n of_o the_o matter_n that_o he_o be_v make_v of_o and_o that_o be_v the_o same_o that_o he_o desire_v god_n to_o take_v notice_n of_o or_o behold_v whereby_o he_o may_v gracious_o remit_v that_o sinful_a act_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v unless_o you_o mean_v that_o sin_n which_o believe_v man_n and_o woman_n suffer_v for_o which_o be_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o first_o covenant_n which_o do_v consist_v of_o a_o earthly_a paradisical_a glory_n which_o i_o do_v to_o you_o and_o do_v still_o affirm_v that_o both_o adam_n and_o all_o his_o posterity_n considered_o as_o they_o be_v in_o his_o loin_n do_v not_o only_o commit_v it_o but_o also_o suffer_v for_o it_o which_o i_o do_v then_o and_o do_v still_o affirm_v to_o be_v the_o first_o death_n by_o which_o pollution_n and_o corruption_n run_v through_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o outward_a man_n mankind_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v no_o pollution_n or_o disability_n in_o the_o least_o have_v it_o bring_v to_o the_o spiritual_a part_n of_o man_n whereby_o the_o conscience_n or_o spirit_n of_o man_n shall_v be_v defile_v neither_o active_o nor_o imputative_o not_o active_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o the_o spiritual_a part_n of_o man_n be_v not_o involve_v in_o the_o loin_n of_o adam_n whereby_o he_o do_v be_v get_v it_o but_o it_o be_v form_v in_o man_n by_o god_n zach._n 12.1_o so_o according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n when_o he_o speak_v concerning_o the_o dissolution_n sin_n of_o that_o mortal_a lump_n that_o man_n beget_v say_v than_o dust_n shall_v return_v to_o dust_n and_o the_o spirit_n to_o he_o that_o give_v it_o so_o that_o as_o man_n beget_v only_o the_o natural_a part_n of_o man_n and_o not_o the_o spiritual_a and_o thereby_o the_o spiritual_a part_n be_v not_o in_o form_n and_o matter_n in_o the_o loin_n of_o adam_n therefore_o the_o spiritual_a part_n can_v not_o be_v pollute_v but_o the_o natural_a part_n be_v in_o matter_n involve_v in_o the_o loin_n of_o adam_n be_v pollute_v corrupt_a and_o deform_v from_o whence_o arise_v all_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n as_o blindness_n deafness_n and_o lameness_n and_o all_o such_o like_a corruption_n which_o shall_v remain_v until_o this_o corruptible_a body_n shall_v put_v on_o incorruption_n so_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o the_o spiritual_a part_n of_o the_o son_n of_o adam_n do_v not_o sin_n in_o adam_n death_n by_o action_n because_o it_o be_v not_o in_o be_v the_o second_o reason_n why_o the_o guilt_n of_o adam_n sin_n can_v lie_v upon_o the_o spiritual_a part_n of_o any_o so_o as_o to_o make_v they_o stand_v guilty_a before_o god_n of_o a_o second_o death_n be_v from_o the_o reproof_n the_o lord_n give_v to_o a_o generation_n of_o man_n of_o your_o judgement_n that_o think_v the_o child_n must_v die_v for_o the_o father_n sin_n that_o when_o the_o lord_n do_v threaten_v the_o punishment_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n that_o you_o blind_o with_o those_o who_o the_o lord_n reprove_v ezek._n 18.2_o 3._o do_v conclude_v that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o the_o second_o death_n therefore_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o will_v have_v that_o proverb_n use_v no_o more_o the_o father_n have_v eat_v sour_a grape_n and_o the_o child_n tooth_n be_v set_v on_o edge_n but_o the_o soul_n that_o sin_v shall_v die_v so_o much_o brief_o as_o for_o the_o second_o reason_n but_o whereas_o you_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o thought_n of_o time_n betwixt_o the_o natural_a being_n of_o david_n and_o the_o sinful_a be_v if_o you_o mean_v his_o sinful_a be_v by_o that_o matter_n that_o he_o receive_v from_o adam_n it_o be_v grant_v but_o if_o it_o be_v of_o the_o soul_n or_o inward_a part_n which_o have_v its_o being_n from_o god_n it_o be_v deny_v from_o the_o two_o reason_n already_o render_v further_o one_o reason_n more_o any_o creature_n that_o be_v defile_v in_o the_o inward_a man_n be_v not_o fit_a for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n but_o child_n be_v fit_a for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n at_o the_o very_a birth_n of_o they_o therefore_o child_n be_v not_o defile_v or_o corrupt_v in_o the_o inward_a man_n further_o you_o affirm_v in_o your_o writing_n that_o i_o say_v that_o you_o can_v never_o read_v in_o scripture_n that_o any_o child_n be_v damn_v and_o therefore_o no_o such_o sin_n original_a to_o damn_v to_o which_o say_v you_o you_o instance_v that_o of_o esau_n who_o be_v reprobate_v from_o all_o eternity_n to_o the_o which_o i_o answer_v i_o do_v indeed_o confess_v you_o say_v so_o but_o i_o have_v learned_a that_o your_o say_v so_o be_v no_o sufficient_a proof_n for_o the_o nine_o of_o the_o roman_n the_o eleven_o twelve_o and_o thirteen_o verse_n which_o you_o cite_v to_o prove_v the_o matter_n prove_v no_o such_o thing_n for_o let_v any_o soul_n serious_o read_v that_o place_n and_o see_v whether_o that_o place_n say_v

sign_n and_o none_o shall_v be_v give_v they_o and_o furthermore_o i_o say_v that_o if_o you_o be_v as_o careful_a to_o read_v the_o scripture_n and_o be_v frequent_a in_o they_o as_o you_o be_v to_o look_v after_o your_o tithe_n you_o may_v have_v remember_v that_o john_n the_o baptist_n who_o be_v a_o very_a great_a prophet_n do_v show_v no_o sign_n or_o mark_v at_o all_o yet_o all_o that_o that_o he_o say_v be_v true_a joh._n 10.41_o and_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o that_o i_o say_v which_o you_o call_v rail_v the_o last_o thing_n you_o say_v appear_v to_o be_v full_a of_o confusion_n for_o in_o the_o first_o clause_n of_o your_o last_o verse_n in_o which_o you_o say_v that_o such_o as_o we_o be_v give_v up_o the_o meaning_n thereof_o be_v this_o that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o up_o to_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o his_o favour_n not_o only_o intend_v to_o harden_v we_o but_o also_o to_o harden_v himself_o against_o we_o not_o intend_v any_o mean_n shall_v do_v we_o good_a cut_v we_o from_o mercy_n delight_v in_o our_o destruction_n this_o be_v mean_v by_o give_v up_o to_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n and_o yet_o now_o in_o the_o last_o clause_n of_o your_o verse_n you_o pray_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v open_v our_o eye_n so_o that_o in_o one_o place_n you_o cast_v we_o as_o far_o as_o you_o can_v into_o hell_n and_o say_v that_o god_n have_v do_v so_o in_o his_o account_n

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

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

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

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
