and_o of_o infirmity_n for_o that_o by_o the_o violence_n and_o force_n of_o sin_n either_o present_o smite_v and_o quell_v they_o voluntary_o yield_v themselves_o which_o after_o a_o short_a

and_o from_o the_o heart_n they_o proper_o sin_n against_o the_o conscience_n for_o they_o know_v that_o they_o do_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o that_o with_o contempt_n and_o they_o

pass_v effective_o that_o it_o reign_v in_o our_o heart_n therefore_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o actual_a sin_n draw_v from_o the_o two_o different_a manner_n of_o willing_a one_o which_o be_v so_o voluntary_a as_o that_o it_o be_v also_o partly_o involuntarie_a of_o which_o kind_n of_o action_n aristotle_n treat_v in_o his_o ethic_n which_o indeed_o be_v not_o commit_v with_o plenary_a

before_o there_o be_v no_o controversy_n neither_o be_v it_o controvert_v whether_o by_o this_o sin_n the_o saint_n be_v oblige_v with_o a_o new_a guilt_n by_o the_o commit_v thereof_o and_o so_o also_o have_v need_n of_o new_a remission_n of_o this_o new_a sin_n for_o none_o of_o we_o do_v deny_v it_o another_o sort_n be_v so_o un_o uluntarie_a as_o that_o in_o no_o respect_n it_o be_v involuntarie_a for_o which_o cause_n it_o be_v call_v the_o sin_n proper_o against_o the_o conscience_n that_o be_v to_o say_v plenary_a and_o utter_o waste_v the_o conscience_n and_o therefore_o even_o reign_v therefore_o the_o difference_n between_o we_o be_v concern_v that_o other_o kind_n of_o actual_a sin_n for_o our_o adversary_n do_v vouch_v that_o the_o saint_n as_o peter_n do_v offend_v with_o the_o whole_a will_n and_o with_o all_o their_o heart_n and_o so_o proper_o against_o the_o conscience_n and_o for_o that_o such_o sin_n can_v in_o any_o wise_a consist_v with_o faith_n therefore_o hence_o they_o conclude_v that_o the_o saint_n may_v loose_v faith_n total_o but_o contrariwise_o i_o do_v deny_v that_o this_o kind_n of_o sin_n can_v befall_v the_o elect_n be_v sanctify_v a_o regenerate_a and_o so_o consequent_o i_o deny_v that_o the_o elect_a sanctify_a can_v utter_o fall_v from_o faith_n and_o whole_o loose_v the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o why_o i_o shall_v deny_v that_o this_o kind_n of_o sin_n can_v befall_v the_o saint_n i_o be_o induce_v by_o these_o reason_n and_o testimony_n for_o how_o can_v sin_n reign_v and_o by_o sin_n satan_n where_o justice_n and_o christ_n reign_v and_o how_o can_v faith_n reign_v there_o and_o by_o faith_n christ_n where_o sin_n and_o satan_n reign_v the_o parable_n of_o christ_n be_v famous_a when_o the_o strong_a man_n keep_v his_o tower_n it_o can_v be_v invade_v of_o the_o enemy_n unless_o he_o be_v strong_a than_o the_o owner_n of_o the_o tower_n &_o do_v expel_v he_o from_o it_o now_o christ_n be_v strong_a than_o satan_n therefore_o christ_n do_v often_o banish_v satan_n out_o of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o there_o do_v reign_v himself_o and_o satan_n though_o he_o do_v often_o besiege_v the_o city_n of_o

therefore_o be_v it_o utter_o impossible_a that_o sin_n shall_v proper_o reign_n and_o get_v dominion_n in_o the_o elect._n sin_n in_o his_o dominion_n or_o reign_v sin_n be_v that_o to_o who_o
