have_v not_o the_o necessity_n of_o die_v be_v express_o except_v out_o of_o this_o redemption_n for_o in_o adam_n all_o die_n and_o it_o be_v appoint_v by_o a_o divine_a decree_n for_o all_o man_n once_o to_o die_v and_o can_v they_o show_v where_o purgatory_n be_v except_v too_o than_o i_o will_v grant_v that_o those_o who_o be_v redeem_v from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n may_v fall_v into_o purgatory_n if_o that_o be_v any_o comfort_n to_o they_o and_o yet_o the_o case_n be_v vast_o different_a between_o death_n and_o purgatory_n for_o though_o death_n be_v the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o we_o may_v be_v deliver_v from_o death_n as_o a_o curse_n and_o punishment_n without_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o necessity_n of_o die_v and_o thus_o good_a man_n be_v redeem_v from_o death_n for_o their_o sin_n be_v expiate_v and_o pardon_v and_o then_o the_o sting_n of_o death_n be_v go_v for_o the_o sting_n of_o death_n be_v sin_n and_o therefore_o when_o our_o sin_n be_v pardon_v death_n can_v sting_v we_o can_v do_v we_o no_o hurt_n because_o it_o do_v not_o deliver_v we_o over_o to_o punishment_n but_o transplant_v we_o into_o a_o more_o happy_a state_n the_o fear_n of_o death_n be_v conquer_v by_o the_o promise_n of_o immortal_a life_n and_o death_n itself_o shall_v at_o the_o last_o day_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n when_o our_o dead_a body_n shall_v be_v raise_v immortal_a and_o glorious_a so_o that_o tho'_o good_a man_n still_o die_v yet_o they_o be_v redeem_v from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n from_o death_n itself_o as_o a_o curse_n and_o a_o punishment_n but_o the_o popish_a purgatory_n be_v a_o place_n of_o punishment_n and_o nothing_o but_o punishment_n and_o therefore_o be_v not_o reconcilable_a with_o the_o remission_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n again_o i_o ask_v whether_o there_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o punishment_n due_a to_o sin_n temporal_a and_o eternal_a of_o such_o a_o distinct_a nature_n and_o consideration_n that_o the_o promise_n of_o forgiveness_n do_v not_o include_v both_o nay_o that_o god_n can_v forgive_v both_o that_o only_o the_o eternal_a punishment_n can_v be_v forgive_v but_o the_o temporal_a punishment_n must_v be_v satisfy_v for_o or_o endure_v by_o the_o sinner_n if_o this_o be_v the_o case_n indeed_o than_o i_o will_v grant_v the_o promise_n of_o forgiveness_n can_v extend_v only_o to_o eternal_a punishment_n because_o god_n can_v forgive_v no_o other_o and_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o eternal_a punishment_n do_v not_o include_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o the_o temporal_a punishment_n but_o if_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n be_v eternal_a death_n and_o all_o other_o punishment_n which_o can_v proper_o be_v call_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n for_o correction_n and_o discipline_n be_v not_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n be_v only_a part_n of_o the_o curse_n and_o a_o partial_a execution_n of_o it_o if_o the_o only_a thing_n that_o make_v sinner_n obnoxious_a to_o temporal_a punishment_n be_v that_o they_o be_v under_o the_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a death_n which_o god_n may_v execute_v by_o what_o degree_n he_o please_v then_o to_o forgive_v eternal_a punishment_n must_v include_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o temporal_a punishment_n as_o part_n or_o branch_n of_o it_o as_o suppose_v there_o be_v a_o law_n that_o no_o man_n shall_v suffer_v any_o bodily_a punishment_n but_o such_o a_o malefactor_n as_o be_v condemn_v to_o die_v but_o when_o the_o sentence_n of_o death_n be_v pass_v upon_o he_o it_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o prince_n pleasure_n to_o defer_v the_o execution_n of_o this_o sentence_n as_o long_o as_o he_o please_v and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n to_o inflict_v all_o other_o punishment_n on_o he_o whatever_o he_o please_v in_o this_o case_n to_o pardon_v the_o sentence_n of_o death_n will_v deliver_v such_o a_o man_n from_o all_o other_o punishment_n too_o which_o by_o the_o law_n be_v due_a only_o to_o that_o man_n who_o be_v under_o the_o sentence_n of_o death_n and_o in_o such_o a_o constitution_n for_o any_o man_n to_o say_v that_o the_o prince_n pardon_n extend_v only_o to_o life_n but_o do_v not_o excuse_v from_o whip_v and_o pillor_v and_o perpetual_a imprisonment_n will_v be_v to_o make_v the_o pardon_v void_a since_o no_o man_n by_o the_o law_n can_v suffer_v those_o other_o punishment_n but_o he_o who_o be_v condemn_v to_o die_v and_o therefore_o he_o who_o be_v pardon_v the_o sentence_n of_o death_n in_o consequence_n of_o that_o be_v pardon_v all_o other_o punishment_n too_o thus_o it_o be_v here_o the_o original_a curse_n against_o sin_n be_v in_o the_o day_n that_o thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v which_o by_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n be_v expound_v of_o eternal_a death_n and_o there_o be_v no_o other_o threaten_v in_o all_o the_o gospel_n against_o sin_n but_o eternal_a death_n and_o therefore_o all_o other_o punishment_n be_v inflict_v by_o virtue_n of_o this_o law_n and_o consequent_o he_o who_o be_v deliver_v from_o this_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n from_o eternal_a punishment_n be_v deliver_v from_o the_o whole_a punshment_n due_a to_o sin_n unless_o they_o can_v find_v some_o other_o law_n in_o the_o gospel_n beside_o that_o which_o threaten_v eternal_a death_n which_o oblige_v a_o sinner_n to_o punishment_n again_o since_o they_o acknowledge_v that_o christ_n by_o his_o death_n have_v deliver_v we_o from_o eternal_a punishment_n i_o do_v not_o think_v it_o worth_a the_o while_n to_o dispute_v with_o they_o whether_o those_o suffering_n and_o calamity_n which_o good_a man_n be_v expose_v to_o in_o this_o world_n may_v proper_o be_v call_v punishment_n or_o only_a correction_n and_o discipline_n but_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v why_o they_o call_v purgatory_n which_o be_v a_o place_n of_o punishment_n in_o the_o other_o world_n a_o temporal_a punishment_n for_o this_o be_v a_o abuse_n of_o the_o language_n of_o scripture_n which_o make_v this_o world_n temporal_a and_o the_o next_o world_n eternal_a as_o st._n paul_n express_o tell_v we_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v be_v temporal_a but_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v be_v eternal_a 2_o cor._n 4.18_o and_o therefore_o temporal_a punishment_n signify_v the_o punishment_n in_o this_o world_n but_o the_o unseen_a punishment_n as_o well_o as_o the_o unseen_a reward_n of_o the_o next_o world_n be_v eternal_a which_o be_v a_o demonstration_n that_o there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n unless_o it_o be_v eternal_a and_o then_o it_o be_v but_o another_o name_n for_o hell_n and_o therefore_o the_o state_n of_o the_o next_o world_n be_v call_v either_o life_n or_o death_n eternal_a life_n or_o eternal_a death_n those_o who_o believe_v in_o christ_n shall_v never_o die_v 11_o joh._n 25_o 26._o now_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v the_o difference_n between_o live_v and_o die_v and_o perish_v in_o the_o next_o world_n for_o bad_a man_n do_v not_o cease_v to_o be_v nor_o lose_v all_o sense_n in_o the_o next_o world_n no_o more_o than_o good_a man_n and_o therefore_o life_n can_v only_o signify_v a_o state_n of_o happiness_n and_o death_n a_o state_n of_o misery_n which_o be_v much_o worse_a than_o not_o be_v now_o if_o good_a man_n must_v not_o perish_v must_v not_o die_v but_o live_v in_o the_o next_o world_n they_o must_v not_o go_v to_o purgatory_n which_o be_v as_o much_o perish_a as_o much_o die_a as_o hell_n though_o not_o so_o long_o but_o if_o they_o must_v never_o die_v never_o perish_v they_o must_v never_o suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o purgatory_n which_o be_v a_o die_a and_o perish_v that_o be_v a_o state_n of_o torment_n and_o misery_n while_o they_o continue_v there_o let_v we_o then_o see_v how_o a_o papist_n who_o believe_v a_o purgatory-sire_n in_o the_o next_o world_n wherein_o he_o shall_v be_v torment_v god_n know_v how_o long_o for_o his_o sin_n can_v prove_v that_o a_o penitent_a sinner_n shall_v not_o be_v eternal_o damn_v oh_o say_v he_o christ_n have_v die_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o make_v atonement_n for_o they_o and_o we_o be_v pardon_v and_o justify_v through_o faith_n in_o his_o blood_n and_o what_o then_o may_v we_o not_o still_o be_v punish_v for_o our_o sin_n if_o not_o what_o become_v of_o purgatory_n if_o we_o may_v prove_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v eternal_o damn_v for_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o proper_a punishment_n of_o it_o for_o if_o to_o be_v pardon_v and_o justify_v signify_v to_o be_v deliver_v from_o punishment_n it_o signify_v our_o deliverance_n from_o the_o whole_a punishment_n of_o sin_n since_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o limit_v it_o if_o they_o do_v not_o signify_v our_o deliverance_n from_o punishment_n than_o we_o may_v be_v eternal_o punish_v for_o sin_n though_o we_o be_v pardon_v and_o justify_v but_o we_o be_v redeem_v from_o the_o

image-worship_n do_v consist_v only_o in_o man_n gross_a notion_n about_o it_o yet_o we_o see_v under_o the_o law_n to_o prevent_v and_o cure_v this_o god_n do_v not_o go_v about_o to_o rectify_v

all_o creature_n and_o image-worship_n can_v we_o think_v that_o christ_n who_o come_v to_o make_v a_o more_o perfect_a reformation_n shall_v only_o change_v their_o country-god_n into_o saint_n and_o angel_n and_o the_o virgin_n mary_n and_o give_v new_a name_n to_o their_o statue_n and_o image_n which_o whatever_n he_o have_v teach_v about_o it_o instead_o of_o cure_v idolatry_n have_v be_v to_o set_v up_o that_o same_o kind_n of_o worship_n which_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n absolute_o forbid_v and_o condemn_v as_o idolatry_n when_o god_n to_o cure_v the_o idolatrous_a worship_n of_o

intend_v after_o this_o that_o we_o shall_v worship_v angel_n and_o saint_n and_o the_o virgin_n mary_n as_o our_o mediator_n when_o god_n have_v give_v we_o a_o visible_a image_n of_o himself_o his_o

the_o incarnation_n of_o his_o own_o son_n god_n do_v indeed_o take_v care_n to_o rectify_v man_n mistake_n about_o creature-worship_n and_o to_o cut_v off_o all_o pretence_n for_o it_o those_o who_o plead_v that_o vast_a distance_n between_o god_n and_o man_n and_o how_o unfit_a it_o be_v that_o sinner_n shall_v make_v their_o immediate_a approach_n to_o the_o supreme_a god_n and_o therefore_o worship_v inferior_a daemon_n as_o middle_a being_n between_o god_n and_o man_n have_v now_o no_o pretence_n for_o this_o since_o god_n have_v appoint_v his_o own_o son_n to_o be_v our_o mediator_n those_o who_o worship_v image_n as_o the_o visible_a representation_n of_o a_o invisible_a god_n have_v now_o a_o visible_a object_n of_o worship_n a_o god_n incarnate_a a_o god_n in_o the_o nature_n and_o likeness_n of_o a_o man_n and_o though_o we_o do_v not_o now_o see_v he_o yet_o we_o have_v the_o notion_n of_o a_o visible_a god_n and_o mediator_n to_o who_o we_o can_v direct_v our_o prayer_n in_o heaven_n which_o be_v satisfaction_n enough_o even_o to_o man_n of_o more_o gross_a and_o material_a imagination_n without_o any_o artificial_a and_o senseless_a representation_n of_o the_o deity_n and_o be_v all_o this_o do_v that_o man_n may_v worship_v creature_n and_o image_n without_o idolatry_n or_o rather_o be_v it_o not_o do_v to_o cure_v man_n inclination_n to_o commit_v idolatry_n with_o creature_n and_o image_n whoever_o believe_v that_o the_o gospel_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v intend_v as_o a_o remedy_n against_o idolatry_n can_v never_o be_v persuade_v that_o it_o
