we_o and_o now_o further_o add_v that_o according_a to_o his_o pleasure_n he_o dispense_v his_o grace_n and_o by_o his_o power_n preserve_v his_o people_n to_o eternal_a life_n but_o holiness_n be_v

whether_o god_n be_v displease_v with_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o people_n which_o master_n bacon_n affirm_v whereupon_o we_o urge_v his_o own_o doctrine_n public_o teach_v in_o these_o word_n you_o

from_o we_o to_o entertain_v such_o thought_n of_o god_n who_o he_o love_v he_o love_v to_o the_o end_n he_o be_v not_o as_o man_n to_o be_v displease_v the_o lord_n help_v we_o that_o we_o rather_o consider_v that_o we_o be_v not_o sinner_n so_o much_o because_o of_o the_o act_n of_o sin_n but_o rather_o because_o of_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v true_a to_o the_o natural_a man_n to_o our_o understanding_n god_n be_v please_v with_o we_o this_o hour_n and_o not_o that_o hour_n but_o you_o must_v come_v up_o high_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n that_o he_o be_v the_o same_o to_o day_n and_o for_o ever_o here_o he_o plain_o deny_v the_o pleasure_n or_o displeasure_n of_o god_n for_o this_o or_o or_o that_o act_n and_o hereupon_o he_o bring_v forth_o this_o subtlety_n that_o god_n be_v displease_v with_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o people_n but_o not_o with_o his_o people_n for_o sin_n of_o which_o people_n he_o exact_v so_o much_o explanation_n as_o that_o they_o be_v in_o christ_n as_o if_o we_o conceive_v god_n people_n out_o of_o christ_n but_o this_o be_v not_o enough_o he_o exact_v more_o viz._n we_o mean_v such_o a_o people_n as_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n as_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o conceive_v that_o god_n people_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n be_v out_o of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n he_o state_v the_o question_n on_o this_o wise_a 1_o when_o we_o affirm_v that_o god_n be_v displease_v or_o angry_a we_o speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n for_o god_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o passion_n answ_n to_o say_v that_o god_n be_v angry_a be_v speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n yet_o dispeasure_n be_v no_o passion_n but_o agree_v with_o god_n in_o the_o high_a perfection_n of_o his_o nature_n for_o god_n be_v equal_o perfect_a in_o the_o dislike_n of_o sin_n as_o in_o the_o love_n of_o good_a 2._o when_o we_o be_v chastened_a of_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o his_o love_n not_o of_o his_o
