that_o which_o in_o all_o their_o trouble_n their_o heart_n pant_v after_o so_o also_o to_o be_v assure_v that_o their_o sin_n be_v pardonable_a be_v matter_n at_o least_o of_o negative_a comfort_n but_o to_o lie_v under_o the_o sense_n of_o sin_n as_o unpardoned_a and_o to_o apprehend_v it_o as_o unpardonable_a too_o can_v not_o but_o be_v matter_n of_o great_a horror_n to_o the_o soul_n but_o these_o apprehension_n do_v proceed_v many_o time_n partly_o from_o the_o violence_n of_o temptation_n and_o partly_o also_o from_o some_o mistake_n about_o the_o pardonableness_n of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o obviate_a the_o one_o and_z removing_z the_o other_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o these_o follow_a proposition_n 1._o prop._n all_o sin_n how_o great_a or_o small_a soever_o be_v unpardonable_a after_o death_n i._n e._n if_o it_o be_v unpardoned_a at_o death_n for_o death_n do_v absolute_o fix_v every_o one_o in_o that_o condition_n wherein_o they_o die_v so_o that_o if_o sin_n be_v then_o pardon_v it_o be_v pardon_v for_o ever_o but_o if_o it_o be_v then_o unpardoned_a it_o be_v not_o only_o unpardoned_a but_o also_o unpardonable_a for_o ever_o 2._o prop._n all_o the_o sin_n of_o a_o unregenerate_a person_n be_v unpardonable_a while_o he_o be_v such_o but_o this_o be_v not_o such_o a_o fix_a unalterable_a unpardonableness_n as_o the_o former_a but_o only_o in_o relation_n to_o that_o state_n so_o that_o those_o sin_n which_o to_o a_o unregenerate_a person_n be_v altogether_o unpardonable_a while_o he_o continue_v in_o that_o state_n be_v all_o pardonable_a yea_o and_o actual_o pardon_v as_o soon_o as_o ever_o his_o state_n be_v change_v from_o unregeneracy_n to_o regeneracy_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n repent_v and_o be_v convert_v that_o your_o sin_n may_v be_v blat_v out_o 3._o prop._n all_o the_o sin_n of_o every_o one_o of_o god_n child_n be_v pardonable_a by_o virtue_n of_o their_o state_n as_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o so_o reconcile_v to_o god_n although_o the_o actual_a application_n of_o that_o pardon_n be_v suspend_v upon_o their_o actual_a repentance_n and_o faith_n for_o the_o most_o part_n however_o all_o those_o that_o be_v once_o engraft_v into_o christ_n by_o faith_n be_v so_o provide_v for_o by_o he_o that_o as_o they_o can_v sin_v any_o sin_n that_o be_v in_o itself_o unpardonable_a so_o neither_o can_v they_o commit_v any_o sin_n with_o such_o circumstance_n as_o that_o eventual_o it_o shall_v prove_v unpardonable_a to_o they_o but_o shall_v soon_o or_o late_a be_n certain_o pardon_v upon_o their_o certain_a performance_n of_o the_o condition_n of_o pardon_n through_o christ_n 4._o prop._n all_o sin_n be_v in_o themselves_o pardonable_a except_o the_o sin_n unto_o death_n for_o god_n have_v not_o by_o any_o peremptory_a decree_n make_v know_v unto_o we_o in_o his_o word_n so_o forestall_v the_o pardon_n of_o any_o particular_a sin_n whether_o we_o consider_v it_o in_o the_o horridness_n of_o its_o nature_n or_o in_o the_o heinousness_n of_o its_o circumstance_n but_o that_o upon_o the_o term_n of_o repentance_n and_o faith_n it_o be_v pardonable_a except_o that_o sin_n which_o be_v call_v the_o sin_n unto_o death_n of_o this_o also_o i_o suppose_v we_o can_v proper_o say_v that_o it_o be_v unpardonable_a although_o the_o person_n guilty_a thereof_o shall_v repent_v and_o believe_v but_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n of_o that_o nature_n that_o do_v absolute_o bind_v up_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o sinner_n from_o repent_v and_o believe_v so_o that_o his_o repent_v and_o believe_v be_v as_o impossible_a as_o his_o be_v pardon_v sect_n x._o of_o the_o sin_n unto_o death_n i_o hint_v before_o that_o the_o trouble_a soul_n apprehension_n of_o the_o unpardonableness_n of_o their_o sin_n do_v sometime_o rise_v so_o high_a as_o to_o a_o imagination_n that_o they_o have_v sin_v against_o the_o holy-ghost_n and_o then_o we_o may_v easy_o conceive_v what_o unspeakable_a horror_n be_v consequent_a thereupon_o and_o how_o incurable_a this_o distemper_n must_v needs_o be_v till_o that_o conceit_n be_v remove_v because_o the_o scripture_n have_v so_o express_o say_v of_o this_o sin_n that_o it_o shall_v never_o be_v forgive_v neither_o in_o this_o world_n nor_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v but_o what_o this_o sin_n be_v wherein_o it_o do_v consist_v whether_o there_o be_v but_o one_o or_o more_o of_o this_o nature_n whether_o it_o be_v any_o particular_a act_n or_o whether_o any_o sin_n may_v become_v a_o sin_n unto_o death_n or_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n by_o reason_n of_o such_o circumstance_n as_o may_v attend_v it_o these_o be_v matter_n of_o controversy_n wherein_o i_o will_v not_o now_o undertake_v to_o be_v a_o umpire_n between_o the_o differ_a party_n because_o i_o suppose_v it_o will_v little_o conduce_v to_o the_o heal_n of_o that_o distemper_n which_o i_o have_v now_o in_o hand_n in_o regard_n that_o when_o i_o have_v say_v all_o i_o can_v these_o thing_n will_v be_v matter_n of_o controversy_n still_o and_o beside_o something_o else_o may_v be_v say_v of_o this_o matter_n which_o will_v not_o be_v matter_n of_o dispute_n and_o yet_o may_v be_v more_o effectual_a for_o cure_v the_o forementioned_a distemper_n 1._o observe_v therefore_o that_o there_o be_v but_o four_o place_n find_v at_o least_o that_o be_v common_o take_v notice_n of_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o make_v any_o mention_n of_o a_o unpardonable_a sin_n two_o whereof_o give_v we_o only_o the_o name_n without_o any_o description_n and_o the_o other_o two_o give_v we_o description_n without_o any_o name_n the_o first_o of_o those_o two_o place_n where_o such_o a_o sin_n be_v name_v be_v matt._n 22.31_o 32._o where_o it_o be_v call_v the_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n the_o other_o place_n be_v 1_o joh._n 5.16_o where_o it_o be_v call_v the_o sin_n unto_o death_n whether_o these_o two_o name_n express_v to_o we_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n it_o matter_n nothing_o to_o the_o present_a purpose_n though_o i_o incline_v to_o think_v they_o be_v but_o the_o same_o but_o this_o be_v out_o of_o question_n that_o both_o these_o expression_n note_v out_o to_o we_o a_o unpardonable_a sin_n for_o of_o the_o first_o christ_n say_v express_o that_o it_o shall_v never_o be_v forgive_v and_o of_o the_o other_o and_o it_o be_v employ_v in_o the_o very_a name_n that_o it_o oblige_v the_o sinner_n inevitable_o to_o death_n yet_o in_o these_o place_n there_o be_v no_o clear_a description_n of_o the_o sin_n so_o name_v although_o in_o the_o first_o the_o occasion_n of_o christ_n speech_n may_v give_v some_o hint_n what_o his_o meaning_n be_v but_o not_o without_o some_o obscurity_n but_o if_o the_o attribute_v of_o those_o miracle_n which_o christ_n do_v by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy-ghost_n which_o he_o have_v without_o measure_n to_o a_o diabolical_a art_n or_o power_n be_v that_o sin_n as_o seem_v most_o plain_a from_o the_o place_n than_o i_o suppose_v there_o will_v hardly_o be_v any_o trouble_a soul_n find_v which_o can_v with_o any_o show_n of_o truth_n charge_v this_o sin_n upon_o itself_o 2._o but_o if_o this_o fact_n of_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n for_o which_o christ_n charge_v they_o with_o the_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n be_v but_o one_o particular_a branch_n of_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o shall_v hardly_o know_v what_o other_o branch_n fall_v under_o this_o head_n except_o we_o find_v they_o in_o heb._n 4.5_o 6._o and_o heb._n 10.26_o 29._o which_o be_v those_o other_o two_o place_n wherein_o we_o find_v a_o unpardonable_a sin_n describe_v without_o any_o special_a name_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o receive_a opinion_n that_o these_o place_n do_v describe_v to_o we_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n which_o want_v not_o its_o probability_n because_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o these_o place_n describe_v to_o we_o a_o unpardonable_a sin_n and_o christ_n in_o the_o other_o place_n seem_v to_o tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o sin_n unpardonable_a but_o only_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n but_o however_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n or_o not_o which_o the_o apostle_n describe_v in_o those_o passage_n to_o the_o hebrew_n yet_o this_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o those_o who_o in_o the_o trouble_n of_o their_o soul_n do_v charge_n themselves_o with_o the_o commission_n of_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n do_v general_o ground_n and_o build_v their_o charge_n upon_o this_o notion_n that_o the_o sin_n there_o describe_v be_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n and_o they_o conceive_v that_o they_o have_v commit_v some_o sin_n like_v unto_o those_o there_o describe_v and_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v most_o pertinent_a to_o the_o case_n in_o hand_n to_o clear_v the_o meaning_n of_o those_o place_n it_o will_v be_v
