WHerfore as by one man sinne entred into the worlde and death by the meanes of sinne And so death went ouer all men in so much that all men sinned c. By a man came death and by a man came the resurrection of the dead for as by Adam all dye euen so by Christ shall all be made alyue c. ¶ Augusti lib. against fortunate in the disputation I Say that ther was frée will in him that was first made and created he was so made that nothing could resist his will if he would haue kept the preceptes and cōmaundements of God But afterwarde of his owne frée will and mind he sinned but we be cast into a necessitie that come of his séede and stocke therfore so long as we do beare the image of an earthly man that is so long as we walke after the flesh which is called the olde man we haue a necessitie of our custome that we do not that that we would But the grace of God hath inspired his loue into vs and hath made vs subiect vnto his owne will to whom it is sayd you be called into libertie and the grace of God hath deliuered me from the lawe of sinne and death the lawe of sinne is that whosoeuer sinneth should dye we be deliuered from this lawe when wée beginne to be iust the law of death is by the which it is sayd vnto man thou art earth and in to earth thou shalt returne For of it we men are so made because we be earth in to earth we shall returne againe for the desart of sinne in the first man but by the grace of god which doth deliuer and make vs frée from the lawe of sinne and of death being turned to righteousnes we be so deliuered that afterward that flesh that dyd torment vs in paines remayning in sinne shal in the resurrection be geuen vs againe and shall by no aduersitie or contraritie trouble or hinder vs to kepe Gods commaundements and precepts God made man from the beginning left him in the hande of his owne counsell he gaue him his commaundements and precepts if thou wilte obserue the commaundements and kepe acceptable faithfulnes foreuer they shall preserue thée He hath set water and fyre before thée reach out thine hand vnto which thou wilt Before man is lyfe and death good and euel loke what him liketh shal be geuen him ¶ Augusti lib. of the newe soinge cap. 8. WHat fréewil can do not being helped in Adam it is declared vnto euell it is sufficient but not vnto good vnles it be helped of God for the first man receaued fréewill fully and the Lord set before him as the Scripture sayth fyer and water and sayd put thine hande vnto which thou wilt he dyd chuse fyer and left the water Behold the iust Iudge that hée chose being frée he had He woulde haue euell and euell folowed him behold farther that iust Iudge doing mercie For when he dyd sée that man by th' abuse of his fréewill had in himselfe as in a Roote had damned all his progenie and stocke he beinge not requested or desired came downe from Heauen and with his humilitie healed mankinde which perished through his owne pride those that went astraye he brought vnto lyfe straungers he brought and lead vnto a countrey therfore let not man glory in himselfe but let him glory in him that made him The beginning of mans pride is to fall away from God and why his harte is gone from his maker for pride is the oraginall of all sinne ¶ Augusti lib. of correption and grace Cap. 10. IT is demaunded of vs what our opinion is as touching the gift that was geuen vnto the first man which certainly was made perfect without any vice Therfore we do surely confesse and rightly beleue that God the Lord of all which created all thinges verie good and forknew that euel would come of good and that it wold be more honour and glory vnto himselfe to make of euell good againe then not to suffer euell to be dyd so ordayne and appoynt the lyfe both of Angell and man that in it he might first shewe what their fréewill could do without grace secondly what his great mercy was of it selfe thir●ly what his iust Iudgement could would do not being restrayned by mercye ¶ Cap. 11. The first man had not this grace that he should neuer haue a will to be euill but he had that grace in which if he would haue remayned he shoulde neuer haue bene euell without that grace for all his frée will he could not be good But by his frée will he might leaue that grace therfore God would not haue him to be without his grace whom he left in fréewill because fréewill is sufficient to euell but not vnto good vnlesse it be helped of the euerlastinge goodnes which helpe if man had not forsaken of his fréewill he had euer bene But he forsooke and was forsaken the helpe was such that he might leaue it when he would and in which he might remaine if he would this is the first grace that was geuen vnto the first Adam but it is of more strength and efecacie in the second Adam the first is that man might be iust if he would But the second is more for by it man is made to haue a will and such a will as is ioyned with a feruent loue so that volupteousnes of the flesh wishing and desiring contrary to the spirite we do ouercome and conquer be the spirite by this grace giuen of God we haue not onely a power and strength ▪ but also a will and desire both to receau● good and to remaine in good so that we haue both will and power which was not in the first man God gaue him a helpe without which he could not remaine if he would but for to haue a will he left 〈◊〉 in his owne power and fréewill therfore he might haue remayned if he would because he gaue him an helpe by the which he might and without which he could not but because he would not remaine by thée liuing god It was his faulte whose reward should haue bene if he would haue remayned he had power if he would But he had not will to his power for if he had he had still remayned if he
