confusion_n of_o the_o devil_n if_o the_o devil_n have_v only_o to_o deal_v with_o perfect_a man_n it_o be_v the_o less_o confusion_n to_o he_o if_o he_o can_v not_o either_o total_o or_o final_o prevail_v against_o they_o by_o his_o hellish_a temptation_n but_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o weak_a man_n such_o as_o be_v more_o flesh_n than_o spirit_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v able_a with_o all_o his_o gate_n and_o armoury_n to_o prevail_v against_o they_o in_o this_o he_o must_v needs_o go_v away_o with_o great_a confusion_n in_o this_o the_o lord_n deal_v with_o his_o child_n as_o once_o he_o do_v with_o the_o chaldaean_n jer._n 37.10_o though_o they_o remain_v but_o as_o wound_a man_n yet_o by_o his_o power_n they_o arise_v and_o prevail_v against_o principality_n and_o power_n four_o hereby_o the_o lord_n do_v try_v the_o courage_n and_o magnanimity_n of_o his_o child_n leave_v in_o their_o bosom_n dangerous_a enemy_n against_o who_o they_o must_v combat_v all_o their_o life_n time_n god_n have_v be_v able_a if_o it_o have_v please_v he_o to_o have_v bring_v israel_n his_o people_n into_o canaan_n without_o war_n but_o he_o will_v not_o that_o he_o may_v try_v they_o even_o so_o god_n be_v able_a to_o bring_v his_o child_n to_o heaven_n without_o any_o opposition_n but_o he_o will_v not_o he_o that_o will_v obtain_v the_o heavenly_a canaan_n must_v fight_v for_o it_o five_o sin_n still_o remain_v in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n after_o conversion_n that_o they_o may_v the_o more_o sensible_o feel_v what_o need_n they_o have_v of_o christ_n and_o of_o god_n mercy_n if_o we_o be_v perfect_o whole_a we_o shall_v not_o need_v the_o physician_n but_o be_v sickly_a and_o crazy_a as_o indeed_o we_o be_v in_o our_o best_a estate_n here_o we_o have_v infinite_a need_n of_o the_o only_a doctor_n who_o by_o the_o physic_n of_o his_o own_o precious_a blood_n heal_v all_o our_o infirmity_n six_o hereby_o the_o lord_n do_v wean_v his_o child_n from_o the_o love_n of_o this_o world_n and_o make_v they_o willing_a and_o desirous_a to_o be_v dissolve_v and_o to_o be_v with_o christ_n not_o so_o much_o that_o they_o may_v be_v free_v from_o affliction_n and_o

but_o if_o there_o be_v sin_n still_o remain_v in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n after_o conversion_n than_o what_o difference_n be_v there_o betwixt_o the_o state_n of_o the_o convert_v and_o unconuert_v answ_n answ_n yes_o great_a difference_n for_o though_o sin_n be_v in_o both_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o like_a manner_n in_o both_o sin_n in_o the_o unconuerted_a or_o wicked_a man_n be_v as_o the_o master_n of_o the_o house_n bear_v the_o whole_a sway_n rule_v and_o domineer_a at_o its_o pleasure_n but_o in_o the_o convert_v it_o be_v but_o as_o a_o drudge_n be_v indeed_o unruly_a and_o malicious_a but_o want_v power_n second_o sin_n in_o the_o unregenerate_a be_v as_o a_o welcome_a guest_n entertain_v with_o all_o alacrity_n and_o cheerfulness_n nothing_o be_v so_o sweet_a to_o a_o carnal_a man_n as_o sin_n nothing_o so_o love_o embrace_v nothing_o so_o joyful_o possess_v but_o in_o the_o regenerate_a it_o be_v as_o a_o unwelcome_a guest_n which_o intrude_v himself_o without_o any_o invitation_n and_o remain_v without_o any_o approbation_n his_o room_n be_v desire_v rather_o than_o his_o company_n three_o sin_n in_o the_o unregenerate_a be_v commit_v and_o follow_v with_o greediness_n without_o any_o reluctation_n in_o the_o will_n the_o hart_n do_v not_o more_o bray_v after_o the_o river_n of_o water_n then_o a_o wicked_a man_n do_v lust_n after_o sin_n but_o in_o the_o regenerate_a sin_n be_v resist_v pray_v against_o fear_v shun_v with_o the_o occasion_n thereof_o etc._n etc._n four_o sin_n in_o the_o unregenerate_a be_v continue_v in_o excuse_v maintain_v and_o sometime_o boast_v of_o but_o in_o the_o regenerate_a it_o be_v break_v of_o by_o speedy_a repentance_n confess_v aggravate_v and_o blush_v at_o but_o to_o come_v to_o the_o application_n use_v be_v it_o so_o that_o sin_n remain_v still_o in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n after_o conversion_n to_o wit_n original_a corruption_n then_o this_o make_v against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o papist_n maintain_v by_o one_o of_o their_o chief_a 7._o chief_a bellar._n lib._n 5._o de_fw-la stat_fw-la paccat_fw-la c._n 7._o champion_n which_o teach_v that_o original_a sin_n be_v so_o wash_v away_o by_o

of_o sin_n still_o dwell_v in_o he_o and_o will_v any_o papist_n be_v so_o impudent_a as_o to_o think_v himself_o clean_a wash_v by_o baptism_n then_o paul_n himself_o but_o to_o let_v they_o go_v do_v the_o familist_n be_v the_o generation_n of_o the_o manichaean_o catharist_n donatist_n jovinian_n and_o pelagian_n which_o in_o former_a age_n of_o the_o church_n hold_v the_o same_o opinion_n concern_v purity_n as_o they_o do_v this_o in_o the_o second_o place_n make_v against_o familist_n which_o dream_n of_o attain_v of_o perfection_n of_o degree_n in_o this_o present_a world_n term_v themselves_o eagle_n angel_n archangel_n comer_n up_o to_o god_n etc._n etc._n concern_v who_o i_o may_v just_o say_v with_o solomon_n there_o be_v a_o generation_n pure_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n and_o yet_o be_v not_o wash_v from_o their_o filthiness_n pro._n 30.12_o the_o devil_n may_v so_o far_o prevail_v with_o they_o by_o their_o inbred_a pride_n as_o to_o make_v they_o believe_v they_o be_v pure_a but_o alas_o if_o we_o consider_v they_o well_o we_o shall_v find_v they_o most_o erroneous_a in_o their_o judgement_n distemper_v in_o their_o passion_n disorder_v in_o their_o life_n unreform_v in_o their_o family_n yea_o sometime_o deliver_v up_o to_o some_o base_a lust_n either_o of_o idleness_n or_o uncleanness_n or_o covetousness_n or_o fraud_n and_o deceit_n or_o the_o like_a but_o to_o leave_v these_o and_o to_o come_v to_o ourselves_o in_o the_o three_o place_n let_v it_o teach_v we_o not_o to_o despair_v though_o we_o find_v corruption_n in_o ourselves_o after_o conversion_n especial_o if_o we_o look_v upon_o it_o with_o the_o same_o eye_n that_o god_n look_v upon_o it_o withal_o to_o wit_n to_o hate_v and_o abhor_v it_o it_o be_v not_o sin_n but_o the_o love_n of_o sin_n that_o banns_n the_o soul_n and_o yet_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n lest_o we_o deceive_v ourselves_o think_v under_o a_o colour_n that_o all_o be_v sinner_n that_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o sin_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o regenerate_a and_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o unregenerate_a for_o though_o there_o be_v sin_n in_o both_o yet_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n as_o we_o note_v before_o four_o let_v it_o teach_v we_o not_o to_o judge_v rash_o concern_v our_o brethren_n as_o though_o they_o be_v hypocrite_n because_o we_o decern_v in_o they_o some_o frailty_n yea_o although_o we_o shall_v discover_v in_o they_o some_o act_n of_o grosser_n sin_n and_o some_o recidivation_n or_o backslide_n as_o in_o david_n peter_n and_o loth_n yet_o we_o be_v not_o to_o pass_v final_a sentence_n upon_o they_o but_o rather_o consider_v ourselves_o lest_o we_o also_o be_v tempt_v doctor_n 3_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o hence_o obeserue_v in_o the_o second_o place_n what_o it_o be_v that_o make_v a_o man_n miserable_a and_o that_o be_v not_o affliction_n as_o poverty_n imprisonment_n disgrace_n in_o the_o world_n sickness_n banishment_n no_o not_o death_n itself_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o these_o we_o may_v have_v some_o joy_n as_o the_o martyr_n have_v have_v but_o sin_n sin_n alone_o be_v that_o which_o make_v miserable_a and_o why_o so_o because_o it_o deface_v god_n image_n in_o a_o man_n and_o conform_v he_o to_o the_o image_n of_o satan_n no_o child_n do_v so_o apt_o resemble_v the_o parent_n as_o sin_n make_v a_o man_n resemble_v the_o devil_n which_o be_v no_o small_a misery_n second_o it_o deprive_v a_o man_n of_o god_n favour_n a_o man_n may_v undergo_v many_o cross_n and_o affliction_n and_o yet_o remain_v in_o god_n love_n but_o he_o can_v continue_v wallow_v in_o sin_n and_o retain_v his_o favour_n three_o it_o rob_v a_o man_n of_o all_o solid_a comfort_n a_o man_n may_v be_v afflict_v and_o yet_o fill_v with_o the_o joy_n in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o may_v walk_v with_o joy_n work_v with_o joy_n eat_v with_o joy_n lie_v down_o with_o joy_n rise_v up_o with_o joy_n but_o he_o can_v sell_v himself_o to_o work_v wickedness_n and_o retain_v
