of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o all_o man_n and_o so_o i_o shall_v here_o only_o enlarge_v in_o the_o other_o three_o thing_n follow_v 1._o what_o will_v or_o free_a will_n in_o man_n be_v 2._o what_o divers_a consideration_n of_o man_n yet_o natural_a the_o scripture_n afford_v 3._o when_o man_n be_v other_o and_o more_o than_o natural_a and_o what_o difference_n then_o 1._o the_o will_n of_o man_n or_o man_n will_n be_v one_o of_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n the_o soul_n as_o i_o conceive_v may_v be_v comprehend_v in_o these_o three_o head_n viz._n 1._o the_o understanding_n or_o mind_n of_o a_o man_n by_o which_o he_o know_v discern_v and_o judge_v of_o thing_n good_a or_o bad_a true_a or_o false_a real_a or_o imaginary_a and_o so_o invent_v or_o infer_v all_o which_o may_v be_v call_v reason_n 2._o the_o will_n of_o a_o man_n that_o be_v his_o bent_n and_o inclination_n lead_v to_o elect_v and_o choose_v or_o to_o reject_v and_o refuse_v with_o purpose_n and_o resolution_n approve_v or_o condemn_v according_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o mind_n concern_v thing_n good_a or_o bad_a 3._o the_o affection_n of_o love_n joy_n desire_v etc._n etc._n which_o in_o a_o right_a temper_a soul_n follow_v the_o verdict_n of_o the_o understanding_n and_o so_o the_o choice_n or_o rejection_n of_o the_o will_n but_o if_o the_o appetite_n and_o sensual_a part_n get_v victory_n over_o the_o affection_n and_o so_o lead_v the_o will_n the_o soul_n be_v in_o a_o distemper_n and_o it_o be_v a_o troublesome_a evil_n like_o that_o prov._n 30.22_o 23._o so_o that_o without_o these_o three_o there_o be_v not_o as_o i_o conceive_v a_o whole_a soul_n the_o will_n be_v as_o i_o conceive_v the_o middle_a part_n to_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o understanding_n and_o to_o govern_v the_o affection_n that_o all_o may_v agree_v in_o one_o now_o the_o freedom_n of_o the_o will_n be_v that_o liberty_n and_o freeness_n it_o have_v in_o itself_o above_o any_o discovery_n object_n and_o proffer_n to_o incline_v to_o or_o from_o to_o choose_v or_o reject_v according_a to_o what_o the_o understanding_n discern_v good_a or_o bad_a without_o any_o force_n or_o violence_n to_o constrain_v it_o one_o way_n or_o other_o without_o any_o necessitating_a enforcement_n or_o band_n withhold_v but_o only_o as_o that_o see_v in_o the_o object_n and_o approve_a or_o disaprove_v by_o the_o judgement_n do_v move_v and_o so_o far_o be_v the_o will_v free_v end_v and_o so_o the_o heart_n and_o mind_n make_v free_a and_o willing_a and_o such_o a_o free_a ready_a &_o unconstrained_a will_n or_o willingness_n be_v free_a will_v indeed_o and_o so_o far_o the_o will_n be_v free_a in_o itself_o and_o so_o account_v in_o scripture-language_n also_o exod_a 25.2_o and_o 35.5_o 21_o 22.29_o 2_o cor._n 8.3_o 12._o yet_o here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o discovery_n of_o object_n give_v forth_o of_o command_n and_o direction_n lay_v no_o constraint_n or_o hinder_v but_o that_o the_o will_n of_o itself_o incline_v be_v still_o free_a and_o so_o account_v in_o the_o scripture_n lev_n 1.3_o and_o 19.5_o and_o 22.19_o 26._o nor_o do_v want_v of_o power_n to_o do_v or_o avoid_v and_o so_o accomplish_v according_a to_o the_o purpose_n inclination_n and_o choice_n of_o the_o will_n hinder_v the_o freedom_n of_o the_o will_n but_o that_o the_o will_n may_v be_v free_a and_o free_o willing_a when_o yet_o there_o be_v not_o power_n to_o do_v or_o attain_v that_o which_o be_v will_v matth._n 26.41_o joh._n 21.18_o rom._n 7.18_o so_o that_o freedom_n of_o will_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o power_n of_o do_v another_o and_o so_o let_v we_o hold_v close_o to_o our_o business_n in_o mind_v what_o be_v free_a will_n and_o in_o what_o sense_n the_o will_n be_v say_v to_o be_v free_a whether_o in_o thing_n that_o be_v lawful_a or_o unlawful_a good_a or_o bad_a that_o we_o mistake_v not_o freedom_n here_o for_o liberty_n or_o authority_n give_v of_o god_n for_o he_o give_v none_o to_o evil_n nor_o for_o power_n of_o act_v which_o be_v another_o thing_n but_o for_o that_o freedom_n from_o constraint_n or_o necessity_n in_o which_o the_o will_n as_o it_o be_v a_o will_n do_v or_o may_v incline_v and_o choose_v or_o reject_v more_o need_v not_o be_v say_v of_o the_o will_n what_o it_o be_v 2._o but_o now_o it_o be_v meet_v to_o ponder_v and_o right_o to_o conceive_v of_o man_n according_a to_o the_o divers_a and_o manifold_a consideration_n give_v we_o of_o he_o by_o the_o scripture_n of_o which_o i_o shall_v point_v out_o five_o consideration_n of_o man_n as_o yet_o a_o natural_a man_n and_o they_o be_v these_o 1._o as_o god_n make_v he_o in_o his_o creation_n of_o he_o when_o he_o make_v all_o man_n in_o one_o public_a man_n who_o also_o he_o make_v male_a and_o female_a and_o call_v their_o name_n adam_n 2._o as_o man_n by_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n in_o sin_v make_v himself_o 3._o as_o man_n through_o the_o propitiation_n make_v by_o jesus_n christ_n the_o second_o public_a man_n have_v his_o natural_a life_n a_o time_n preserve_v and_o mercy_n extend_v 4._o as_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o death_n sacrifice_n and_o mediation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n man_n have_v some_o light_n understanding_n and_o disposition_n give_v unto_o he_o by_o jesus_n christ_n 5._o as_o jesus_n christ_n do_v by_o his_o spirit_n with_o some_o supernatural_a light_n and_o motion_n at_o some_o season_n visit_v a_o man_n and_o touch_v his_o heart_n strive_v with_o he_o and_o in_o all_o these_o consideration_n we_o have_v several_a thing_n to_o acknowledge_v about_o the_o will_n of_o man_n and_o the_o freedom_n of_o it_o 1._o in_o the_o first_o consideration_n we_o find_v god_n make_v man_n upright_o even_o in_o his_o soul_n according_a to_o his_o own_o image_n in_o righteousness_n and_o holiness_n ecles_n 7.29_o gen._n 1.26_o col._n 3.10_o eph._n 4.24_o then_o be_v man_n indeed_o a_o live_a soul_n and_o in_o honour_n and_o have_v his_o understanding_n clear_a to_o discern_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n in_o what_o appertain_v to_o man_n and_o his_o will_n free_a and_o at_o liberty_n in_o itself_o though_o by_o the_o command_n of_o god_n bind_v to_o the_o best_a to_o choose_v one_o way_n or_o other_o and_o his_o affection_n suitable_a no_o sober_a man_n that_o i_o know_v deny_v and_o so_o and_o then_o man_n have_v freedom_n of_o will_n to_o that_o which_o be_v natural_a good_a and_o to_o that_o which_o be_v moral_o good_a and_o to_o that_o which_o be_v spiritual_o good_a and_o all_o have_v the_o same_o in_o he_o as_o in_o a_o root_n out_o of_o which_o they_o be_v to_o spring_v and_o as_o in_o a_o public_a man_n that_o stand_v in_o their_o room_n else_o they_o can_v not_o have_v lose_v it_o in_o his_o fall_n and_o loss_n but_o for_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v since_o man_n fall_n call_v in_o scripture_n supernatural_a and_o spiritual_a good_a as_o the_o spiritual_a man_n the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n the_o quicken_a spirit_n life_n from_o the_o dead_a remission_n of_o sin_n through_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n enjoy_v his_o
