to_o this_o for_o the_o first_o that_o every_o motion_n arise_v from_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o heart_n or_o from_o habitual_a lust_n whether_o it_o have_v a_o particular_a object_n or_o be_v but_o a_o vagrant_a imagination_n though_o not_o delight_v in_o nor_o consent_v to_o be_v sin_n before_o god_n will_v easy_o appear_v if_o we_o consider_v 1._o that_o they_o arise_v from_o a_o

they_o be_v disconform_v to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o so_o must_v be_v sinful_a in_o their_o nature_n as_o well_o as_o in_o their_o rise_n they_o lust_n against_o and_o oppose_v the_o spirit_n gal._n 5.17_o and_o so_o must_v oppose_v the_o law_n of_o god_n if_o they_o be_v against_o the_o law_n in_o the_o heart_n they_o be_v also_o against_o the_o write_a law_n though_o you_o shall_v crush_v they_o yet_o once_o they_o be_v if_o they_o have_v no_o inordinacy_n in_o they_o why_o be_v they_o crush_v if_o there_o be_v any_o disorder_n or_o inordinacy_n in_o they_o it_o be_v from_o we_o they_o have_v these_o and_o so_o they_o must_v leave_v a_o guilt_n upon_o we_o 3._o their_o sinful_a tendency_n and_o effect_n prove_v this_o to_o instance_n but_o a_o few_o 1._o they_o be_v

immediate_o and_o direct_o tend_v to_o they_o open_v the_o door_n and_o keep_v it_o open_v for_o temptation_n to_o gross_a sin_n and_o give_v satan_n access_n to_o blow_v up_o the_o coal_n 3._o they_o keep_v out_o good_a motion_n and_o so_o must_v obstruct_v duty_n and_o unfit_a a_o man_n for_o they_o 4._o as_o they_o be_v contrary_a to_o right_a reason_n and_o not_o answerable_a to_o that_o angelical_a holiness_n and_o purity_n that_o shall_v be_v in_o we_o so_o they_o can_v but_o leave_v some_o blot_n and_o defilement_n behind_o they_o let_v these_o motion_n be_v never_o so_o pass_o and_o transient_a and_o run_v never_o so_o swift_o through_o we_o they_o must_v needs_o taint_v we_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o corruption_n that_o in_o less_o or_o more_o still_o side_v with_o they_o they_o have_v always_o the_o virtual_a consent_n of_o the_o will_n in_o as_o far_o as_o not_o regenerate_v and_o so_o can_v simple_o be_v say_v to_o be_v involuntary_a which_o be_v the_o great_a

they_o hinder_v our_o communion_n with_o god_n do_v you_o think_v that_o if_o he_o have_v his_o due_n there_o will_v be_v any_o room_n leave_v for_o these_o have_v they_o any_o place_n in_o heaven_n
