kind_n of_o life_n i_o call_v a_o death_n because_o it_o be_v better_o many_o thousand_o time_n not_o to_o live_v at_o all_o in_o respect_n of_o themselves_o then_o to_o be_v cast_v headlong_o into_o such_o endless_a and_o remediless_a misery_n unto_o which_o all_o the_o misery_n and_o torment_n which_o we_o can_v any_o way_n devise_v to_o be_v inflict_v upon_o man_n in_o this_o world_n be_v compare_v be_v nothing_o to_o those_o flame_n and_o torment_n which_o the_o damn_a die_v this_o eternal_a death_n shall_v endure_v in_o hell_n world_n without_o end_n now_o as_o of_o the_o three_o sort_n of_o life_n the_o natural_a be_v common_a unto_o the_o godly_a and_o the_o reprobate_n but_o the_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a life_n be_v only_o proper_a and_o peculiar_a to_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n so_o of_o the_o other_o side_n among_o those_o three_o sort_n of_o death_n the_o two_o last_o come_v not_o to_o the_o faithful_a one_o but_o the_o first_o only_o which_o be_v the_o natural_a death_n be_v common_a to_o all_o both_o good_a and_o bad_a in_o so_o much_o that_o it_o be_v a_o true_a and_o note_a lesson_n long_o since_o learned_a of_o every_o man_n that_o it_o be_v appoint_v unto_o all_o man_n that_o they_o shall_v once_o die_v as_o well_o the_o just_a as_o the_o unjust_a as_o well_o the_o believer_n as_o the_o infidel_n this_o the_o apostle_n paul_n do_v plain_o prove_v in_o rom._n 5.14_o 5.14_o rom._n 5.14_o death_n reign_v from_o adam_n to_o moses_n even_o over_o they_o that_o have_v not_o sin_v after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n in_o which_o place_n the_o apostle_n divide_v mankind_n into_o two_o sort_n that_o be_v into_o those_o that_o sin_v after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n and_o those_o that_o sin_v not_o after_o his_o similitude_n affirm_v that_o death_n reign_v not_o only_o over_o those_o but_o also_o over_o they_o here_o let_v i_o stand_v and_o show_v you_o this_o difference_n which_o will_v make_v the_o point_n most_o clear_a some_o there_o be_v that_o hold_n adam_n transgression_n to_o be_v the_o violate_v of_o that_o express_a commandment_n thou_o shall_v not_o eat_v of_o it_o and_o so_o affirm_v that_o they_o do_v sin_n after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n that_o do_v transgress_v only_o against_o the_o express_a law_n of_o god_n and_o not_o those_o that_o sin_n without_o the_o write_a law_n which_o opinion_n answer_v not_o to_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o apostle_n who_o purpose_n in_o these_o word_n be_v to_o teach_v that_o even_o before_o the_o law_n death_n reign_v not_o only_o over_o those_o which_o by_o their_o proper_a actual_a sin_n do_v voluntary_o stir_v up_o against_o themselves_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n as_o adam_n do_v when_o he_o transgress_v the_o law_n of_o god_n by_o his_o actual_a disobedience_n but_o that_o it_o reign_v also_o over_o those_o which_o actual_o can_v commit_v no_o sin_n which_o as_o the_o best_a expositor_n expound_v be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o infant_n that_o have_v no_o actual_a sin_n in_o they_o hence_o be_v that_o say_n ab_fw-la adamo_n mors_fw-la est_fw-la tyrannus_fw-la omnibus_fw-la ex_fw-la aequo_fw-la imperans_fw-la even_o from_o the_o time_n of_o adam_n which_o must_v not_o be_v understand_v of_o adam_n in_o his_o integrity_n but_o in_o the_o state_n of_o corruption_n for_o ante_fw-la

reign_v the_o one_o of_o life_n the_o other_o of_o death_n and_o yet_o in_o both_o these_o both_o in_o life_n and_o death_n we_o live_v and_o die_v not_o to_o ourselves_o but_o unto_o god_n who_o both_o can_v and_o will_v preserve_v they_o that_o live_v and_o restore_v to_o life_n they_o that_o be_v dead_a he_o can_v i_o say_v because_o he_o be_v god_n omnipotent_a the_o supreme_a lord_n and_o general_a judge_n to_o who_o every_o knee_n do_v bow_v of_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o thing_n in_o earth_n he_o will_v also_o because_o he_o have_v choose_v we_o and_o purchase_v we_o with_o a_o

the_o second_o the_o second_o follow_v which_o be_v this_o that_o all_o and_o every_o one_o of_o we_o both_o in_o our_o life_n and_o in_o our_o death_n be_v ever_o and_o always_o in_o the_o power_n of_o god_n 2.9_o 1._o sam._n 2.9_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n 1._o sam._n 2.9_o that_o keep_v the_o foot_n of_o his_o saint_n the_o foot_n that_o be_v all_o their_o action_n

and_o perish_v as_o we_o see_v it_o often_o come_v to_o pass_v by_o daily_a practice_n in_o natural_a thing_n for_o as_o long_o as_o god_n do_v vouchsafe_v to_o communicate_v of_o his_o power_n unto_o they_o so_o long_o they_o do_v continue_v and_o live_v but_o that_o be_v take_v away_o they_o forthwith_o die_v and_o perish_v true_a it_o be_v i_o must_v notwithstanding_o confess_v that_o god_n sometime_o suffer_v even_o those_o that_o be_v his_o saint_n on_o earth_n to_o fall_v and_o slip_v into_o many_o sin_n teach_v they_o thereby_o true_o to_o understand_v what_o their_o own_o power_n be_v and_o what_o and_o how_o great_a be_v the_o corruption_n and_o depravation_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o attribute_v any_o thing_n unto_o their_o own_o power_n and_o strength_n neither_o do_v god_n always_o preserve_v and_o defend_v even_o those_o that_o be_v he_o from_o every_o outward_a trouble_n and_o danger_n whereunto_o man_n be_v subject_a but_o often_o he_o be_v please_v to_o try_v they_o with_o many_o and_o sundry_a cross_n and_o affliction_n howbeit_o yet_o so_o that_o he_o still_o avert_v and_o turn_v from_o those_o that_o be_v he_o all_o such_o noxious_a and_o hurtful_a cross_n as_o may_v abolish_v or_o destroy_v in_o they_o the_o hope_n of_o salvation_n and_o life_n everlasting_a therefore_o be_v it_o that_o the_o prophet_n david_n cry_v say_v psal_n 66.8_o 9_o bless_a be_v the_o lord_n 9_o psal_n 66.8_o 9_o that_o hold_v our_o soul_n in_o life_n and_o suffer_v not_o our_o foot_n to_o be_v move_v where_o the_o

we_o safe_a as_o under_o the_o shadow_n of_o his_o wing_n that_o we_o may_v not_o faint_v and_o perish_v under_o the_o great_a burden_n of_o affliction_n for_o many_o and_o great_a be_v the_o

he_o say_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o suffer_v not_o our_o foot_n to_o be_v move_v it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v god_n so_o comfort_v and_o confirm_v those_o that_o be_v he_o with_o his_o holy_a spirit_n that_o while_o they_o live_v they_o can_v with_o patience_n endure_v adversity_n and_o be_v not_o so_o overcome_v with_o sorrow_n and_o impatience_n as_o once_o so_o
