move_v i_o unto_o it_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o you_o but_o rebellion_n but_o i_o do_v it_o for_o my_o glory_n sake_n as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n esay_n 48.8.9_o i_o know_v that_o thou_o will_v deal_v very_o treachercus_o and_o be_v call_v a_o transgressor_n from_o the_o womb_n for_o my_o name_n sake_n will_v i_o defer_v my_o anger_n and_o for_o my_o

we_o for_o ever_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o we_o until_o we_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o he_o he_o must_v continue_v our_o enemy_n for_o ever_o wherefore_o consider_v what_o have_v be_v say_v we_o will_v be_v bold_a to_o conclude_v to_o the_o praise_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o grace_n that_o his_o love_n and_o mercy_n to_o we_o be_v before_o all_o qualification_n in_o we_o that_o his_o love_n and_o mercy_n to_o we_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o qualification_n in_o we_o that_o his_o love_n towards_o we_o be_v as_o great_a before_o faith_n and_o conversion_n as_o after_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n in_o he_o but_o some_o will_v say_v peradventure_o we_o grant_v that_o god_n thus_o love_v we_o as_o be_v before_o prove_v but_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v because_o he_o foresee_v we_o will_v be_v good_a repent_v believe_v etc._n etc._n far_o be_v it_o from_o we_o to_o entertain_v such_o thought_n he_o that_o well_o ponder_v what_o have_v be_v say_v

in_o his_o time_n because_o he_o love_v we_o but_o to_o make_v this_o also_o more_o clear_a the_o holy_a ghost_n declare_v that_o the_o kindness_n of_o god_n towards_o man_n appear_v not_o by_o work_n of_o righteousness_n which_o we_o have_v do_v but_o according_a to_o his_o mercy_n he_o save_v we_o tit._n 3.4_o 5._o the_o pattern_n according_a to_o which_o god_n set_v his_o love_n upon_o man_n

a_o seal_n of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o he_o have_v yet_o be_v uncircumcised_a so_o as_o abraham_n be_v first_o righteous_a and_o then_o circumcise_v not_o first_o circumcise_v and_o then_o righteous_a so_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n be_v first_o belove_v and_o then_o convert_v not_o first_o convert_v and_o then_o belove_v and_o as_o god_n do_v not_o account_n abraham_n righteous_a because_o he_o foresee_v he_o will_v be_v circumcise_v but_o therefore_o he_o give_v he_o the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n because_o he_o have_v make_v he_o righteous_a so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n god_n do_v not_o therefore_o love_v they_o because_o he_o forsee_v they_o will_v repent_v and_o believe_v but_o therefore_o he_o cause_v they_o in_o his_o time_n

of_o god_n so_o perfect_a that_o he_o can_v but_o hate_v the_o person_n unto_o who_o he_o impute_v and_o upon_o who_o he_o charge_v sin_n if_o so_o be_v the_o person_n charge_v can_v give_v full_a

for_o the_o text_n say_v not_o only_o he_o hate_v the_o work_n but_o the_o worker_n that_o be_v the_o person_n work_v iniquite_v another_o answer_n be_v bring_v to_o untie_v this_o knot_n by_o a_o

but_o not_o with_o the_o love_n of_o like_n like_o unto_o which_o we_o hear_v of_o a_o distinction_n not_o seldom_o of_o the_o love_n of_o election_n and_o the_o love_n of_o justification_n god_n say_v they_o love_v his_o elect_a with_o the_o love_n of_o election_n but_o not_o with_o the_o love_n of_o justification_n first_o of_o all_o i_o desire_v you_o to_o consider_v whether_o there_o be_v not_o more_o time_n than_o reason_n in_o these_o distinction_n the_o love_n of_o election_n and_o the_o love_n of_o justification_n be_v not_o diverfity_n of_o love_n or_o divers_a degree_n of_o love_n but_o divers_a manifestation_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o infinite_a love_n as_o when_o a_o father_n have_v convey_v a_o inheritance_n to_o his_o son_n here_o be_v no_o new_a love_n from_o the_o father_n to_o the_o son_n but_o a_o new_a manifestation_n of_o that_o love_n wherewith_o the_o father_n love_v the_o son_n before_o second_o how_o can_v it_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v not_o like_o the_o person_n who_o he_o love_v there_o be_v indeed_o this_o difference_n between_o humane_a love_n and_o divine_a man_n common_o love_v because_o they_o like_v but_o god_n like_v because_o he_o love_v man_n can_v but_o love_v where_o he_o like_v and_o i_o believe_v speak_v of_o the_o person_n god_n can_v but_o like_v where_o he_o love_v to_o make_v such_o difference_n of_o love_n in_o god_n will_v i_o fear_v open_v a_o gap_n to_o many_o foul_a absurdity_n but_o suppose_v that_o these_o thing_n can_v be_v so_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o god_n love_v the_o person_n of_o his_o
