A96661	Mount Ebal levell'd or Redemption from the curse. Wherein are discovered, 1. The wofull condition of sinners under the curse of the law. 2. The nature of the curse, what it is, with the symptomes of it, in its properties, and effects. 3. That wonderful dispensation of Christs becoming a curse for us. 4. The grace of redemption, wherein it stands, in opposition to some gross errors of the times, which darken the truth of it. 5. The excellent benefits, priviledges, comforts, and engagements to duty, which flow from it. By Elkanah Wales, M.A. preacher of the Gospel at Pudsey in York-shire.

accurse_v through_o sin_n it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o the_o first_o and_o second_o death_n have_v not_o fall_v pell-mell_a upon_o they_o all_o and_o devour_v they_o at_o once_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o the_o curse_n have_v not_o dash_v we_o all_o to_o piece_n and_o bring_v the_o whole_a world_n into_o a_o chaos_n long_o ago_o this_o be_v from_o the_o wise_a and_o good_a providence_n of_o god_n who_o for_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o whole_a frame_n and_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o his_o own_o people_n do_v snub_n restrain_v and_o moderate_v the_o curse_n and_o keep_v it_o within_o certain_a bounder_n as_o the_o sea_n within_o its_o bank_n that_o it_o can_v overflow_v and_o destroy_v the_o earth_n we_o see_v that_o the_o horse_n the_o ox_n and_o other_o such_o like_a

to_o man_n both_o skill_n and_o power_n to_o tame_v they_o jam._n 3.7_o and_o 2._o what_o a_o merciful_a dispensation_n be_v this_o that_o such_o swarm_n of_o curse_n shall_v fly_v abroad_o in_o the_o

fruit_n of_o the_o curse_n he_o do_v not_o always_o inflict_v they_o mere_o as_o curse_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o person_n but_o sometime_o only_a praevention_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o misery_n which_o follow_v it_o as_o 1._o cor._n 11.32_o or_o as_o exercise_n of_o patience_n as_o in_o the_o famous_a example_n of_o job_n or_o as_o mean_n which_o his_o divine_a wisdom_n be_v please_v to_o use_v for_o the_o manifestation_n of_o his_o own_o glory_n in_o some_o way_n or_o other_o whereof_o we_o have_v a_o notable_a instance_n in_o the_o man_n which_o be_v blind_a from_o his_o birth_n jo._n 9.1.2.3_o the_o disciple_n ask_v our_o saviour_n who_o sin_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o that_o judgement_n his_o own_o or_o his_o parent_n he_o answer_v neither_o of_o both_o but_o that_o the_o work_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v make_v manifest_a in_o he_o his_o meaning_n be_v this_o you_o think_v this_o man_n be_v thus_o mark_v out_o for_o some_o notorious_a sin_n either_o of_o his_o own_o or_o his_o parent_n but_o you_o be_v mistake_v for_o although_o sin_n be_v a_o universal_a cause_n of_o all_o judgement_n place_n judgement_n see_v piscator_fw-la and_o gualther_n on_o the_o place_n yet_o in_o this_o case_n the_o lord_n do_v not_o look_v upon_o the_o sin_n of_o either_o of_o they_o as_o the_o adequate_a or_o next_o move_n cause_n of_o inflict_v this_o blindness_n but_o he_o intend_v hereby_o the_o manifestation_n of_o his_o work_n the_o work_n of_o justice_n and_o severity_n in_o afflict_v he_o so_o sad_o and_o so_o long_o the_o work_n of_o goodness_n and_o

i_o be_o the_o son_n of_o god_n see_v it_o can_v not_o possible_o be_v do_v by_o any_o other_o hand_n 32._o hand_n ab_fw-la v._n 32._o to_o shut_v up_o this_o use_n let_v we_o not_o reckon_v ourselves_o the_o less_o miserable_a because_o of_o these_o and_o the_o like_a providence_n but_o rather_o ascribe_v they_o to_o the_o indulgence_n of_o mercy_n and_o adore_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o

thereof_o by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n once_o to_o expect_v it_o the_o law_n curse_v sinner_n how_o then_o do_v it_o bless_v they_o but_o if_o it_o justify_v they_o it_o bless_v they_o all_o man_n be_v under_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n therefore_o no_o man_n be_v under_o the_o acquittance_n and_o absolution_n of_o the_o law_n this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o
