when_o god_n first_o call_v he_o and_o in_o the_o time_n of_o temptation_n here_o a_o man_n may_v marvel_v how_o one_o may_v be_v a_o christian_n who_o have_v no_o grace_n or_o goodness_n in_o

they_o be_v pardon_v unto_o us._n i_o answer_v that_o they_o ground_n upon_o a_o foundation_n that_o will_v fail_v they_o for_o that_o a_o man_n can_v not_o be_v assure_v of_o the_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n though_o some_o of_o they_o be_v unknown_a be_v a_o false_a ground_n i_o make_v it_o plain_a thus_o it_o be_v in_o the_o case_n of_o faith_n as_o it_o be_v in_o that_o of_o repentance_n but_o there_o may_v be_v true_a repentance_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v unknown_a god_n will_v have_v a_o particular_a repentance_n for_o particular_a know_v sin_n but_o where_o they_o be_v hide_v and_o unknown_a to_o we_o he_o take_v in_o good_a part_n at_o our_o hand_n a_o more_o broad_a and_o general_a repentance_n of_o this_o we_o have_v example_n in_o david_n where_o he_o say_v who_o can_v tell_v how_o oft_o he_o offend_v 19.12_o psal_n 19.12_o o_o cleanse_v thou_o i_o from_o my_o secret_a fault_n be_v it_o not_o thus_o we_o be_v in_o woeful_a case_n for_o neither_o david_n nor_o any_o one_o else_o may_v be_v save_v for_o though_o david_n repentance_n of_o his_o know_a sin_n of_o murder_n and_o adultery_n appear_v unto_o we_o yet_o we_o find_v it_o not_o in_o his_o history_n or_o else_o where_o in_o holy_a written_a that_o he_o particular_o repent_v his_o poligamie_n his_o multiplicity_n of_o wife_n and_o concubine_n which_o in_o all_o probability_n with_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o time_n he_o drink_v up_o as_o man_n do_v wine_n out_o of_o bowl_n with_o all_o facility_n and_o so_o in_o the_o common_a reputation_n that_o it_o have_v that_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n at_o all_o it_o be_v likely_a enough_o of_o that_o he_o repent_v not_o at_o all_o especial_o while_o he_o consider_v the_o superemmencie_n of_o his_o person_n that_o he_o be_v a_o king_n and_o by_o that_o have_v as_o good_a privilege_n and_o a_o liberty_n for_o this_o as_o any_o common_a person_n yet_o because_o scripture_n determine_v he_o a_o man_n choose_v of_o god_n a_o party_n save_v it_o be_v peremptory_o conclude_v that_o this_o sin_n be_v pardon_v therefore_o when_o god_n pardon_v the_o know_v sin_n of_o man_n whereof_o they_o do_v in_o particular_a repent_v he_o do_v withal_o pardon_v the_o rest_n that_o be_v unknown_a it_o be_v undeniable_a divinity_n that_o he_o that_o certain_o and_o true_o know_v that_o but_o one_o sin_n be_v pardon_v he_o he_o have_v before_o god_n all_o his_o sin_n pardon_v he_o whether_o know_v or_o unknown_a wherefore_o the_o ignorance_n of_o certain_a sin_n can_v prejudice_n a_o unfallible_a assurance_n of_o the_o pardon_n of_o they_o all_o and_o of_o his_o own_o salvation_n 9_o moreover_o whereas_o it_o be_v thus_o object_v unto_o we_o that_o this_o proposition_n of_o we_o be_v not_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n to_o
