justice_n to_o belong_v to_o god_n be_v it_o not_o because_o it_o be_v just_a in_o he_o to_o punish_v offender_n according_a to_o those_o measure_n and_o whence_o come_v this_o but_o from_o that_o

that_o all_o the_o measure_n of_o justice_n be_v observe_v by_o he_o in_o the_o punishment_n of_o the_o great_a offender_n now_o this_o universal_a justice_n in_o god_n be_v that_o whereby_o he_o

as_o they_o offend_v and_o there_o will_v be_v no_o place_n for_o mercy_n in_o god_n nor_o for_o repentance_n in_o men._n but_o sin_n in_o itself_o be_v perfect_o hateful_a to_o god_n there_o be_v nothing_o like_o god_n in_o it_o but_o man_n be_v god_n creature_n and_o make_v after_o his_o image_n and_o likeness_n and_o however_o god_n be_v displease_v with_o mankind_n on_o the_o account_n of_o sin_n yet_o the_o workmanship_n of_o god_n still_o remain_v and_o we_o continual_o see_v that_o god_n do_v not_o exercise_v his_o punitive_a justice_n according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o iniquity_n and_o they_o who_o plead_v most_o for_o the_o necessity_n of_o punitive_a justice_n be_v themselves_o a_o demonstration_n to_o the_o contrary_a for_o they_o can_v deny_v that_o they_o be_v

if_o there_o be_v no_o relaxation_n of_o the_o severity_n of_o it_o 2._o that_o it_o be_v very_o agreeable_a to_o the_o divine_a justice_n to_o exercise_v the_o severity_n of_o punitive_a justice_n on_o obstinate_a and_o incorrigible_a offender_n and_o this_o be_v that_o whereon_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o punishment_n of_o sinner_n in_o another_o world_n be_v found_v because_o god_n have_v be_v so_o merciful_a to_o they_o here_o and_o use_v so_o many_o way_n to_o reclaim_v they_o and_o it_o be_v the_o not_o exercise_v his_o punitive_a justice_n upon_o they_o in_o this_o world_n which_o

thing_n past_a and_o once_o do_v so_o as_o not_o to_o be_v do_v again_o which_o have_v be_v very_o improper_a if_o by_o the_o oblation_n of_o christ_n he_o have_v

that_o he_o still_o speak_v in_o allusion_n to_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v in_o use_n among_o the_o jew_n 4.5_o and_o therefore_o the_o oblation_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o be_v agreeable_a to_o what_o be_v use_v in_o the_o levitical_a sacrifice_n which_o we_o have_v already_o at_o large_a prove_v he_o can_v not_o do_v in_o our_o adversary_n sense_n 3._o that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o such_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n to_o which_o the_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n be_v consequent_a so_o that_o the_o oblation_n antecedent_n to_o it_o
