A91862	ʼIgeret HaMaskil Iggeret hammashkil. Or, An admonitory epistle unto Mr Rich. Baxter, and Mr Tho. Hotchkiss, about their applications (or mis-applications rather) of several texts of Scripture (tending cheifly) to prove that the afflictions of the godly are proper punishments. Unto which are prefixed two dissertations; the one against Mr. Baxter's dangerous problems and positions, about the immanent acts of Gods knowledge and will, as if any of those could be said (without blasphemy) to begin in God, in time, and not to be eternal as himself is: or, as if God could be said (without derogation to His infinite perfections) to begin to know and will in time, any thing which He did not know and will before, yea from all eternity: the other, both against Mr. Baxter and Mr. Hotchkiss, about their definition of pardon and remission of sins, in opposition to great Doctor Twisse's definition of pardon, as it is in God from all eternity towards his elect in Christ. / By William Robertson, Mr. of Arts from the University of Edenburgh.

where_o else_o it_o have_v this_o proper_a signification_n and_o be_v translate_v according_o now_o who_o know_v not_o that_o a_o father_n smite_v his_o child_n when_o he_o chastise_v and_o correct_v they_o out_o of_o love_n to_o make_v they_o sensible_a of_o and_o to_o reclaim_v from_o their_o fault_n as_o well_o as_o the_o judge_n do_v or_o cause_v the_o executioner_n to_o do_v when_o he_o strike_v the_o malefactor_n out_o of_o vindictive_a and_o revenge_a justice_n and_o who_o likewise_o will_v not_o easy_o conjecture_v that_o since_o the_o word_n to_o smite_v be_v as_o well_o applicable_a to_o the_o stroke_n of_o chastisement_n and_o correction_n out_o of_o fatherly_a love_n as_o to_o the_o stroke_n of_o punish_a vengeance_n or_o vindictive_a and_o revenge_a justice_n that_o mr._n baxter_n antagonist_n will_v make_v choice_n of_o the_o one_o when_o the_o word_n be_v speak_v of_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o godly_a as_o well_o as_o he_o do_v the_o other_o and_o that_o they_o will_v disdain_v to_o weigh_v the_o weight_n of_o his_o authority_n to_o the_o contrary_a upon_o this_o ground_n that_o the_o word_n proper_o and_o radical_o signify_v to_o correct_v or_o chastise_v be_v frequent_o attribute_v in_o the_o scripture_n to_o the_o dispensation_n of_o god_n to_o his_o people_n when_o they_o offend_v he_o as_o be_v often_o intimate_v before_o and_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v a_o little_a below_o the_o proof_n of_o it_o but_o never_o be_v there_o a_o word_n proper_o and_o radical_o signify_v to_o punish_v attribute_v to_o they_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o if_o he_o do_v join_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o translation_n to_o his_o own_o they_o will_v value_v this_o reason_n equivalent_a to_o both_o and_o then_o they_o will_v further_o tell_v he_o 1._o that_o the_o translator_n do_v take_v the_o word_n punishment_n in_o a_o general_a sense_n as_o it_o be_v applicable_a to_o stroke_n of_o mercy_n as_o well_o as_o of_o justice_n and_o not_o only_o as_o it_o be_v take_v for_o the_o stroke_n of_o wrathful_a and_o vindictive_a vengeance_n which_o be_v proper_a punishment_n out_o of_o justice_n from_o a_o revenge_a judge_n and_o to_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o justice_n as_o mr._n baxter_n and_o mr._n hotchkis_n do_v take_v the_o word_n and_o 2._o they_o will_v mind_v he_o again_o of_o the_o case_n of_o the_o question_n as_o it_o be_v at_o first_o state_v viz._n that_o he_o be_v to_o prove_v his_o tenet_n out_o of_o his_o lord_n and_o master_n original_a word_n as_o if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o translation_n of_o they_o at_o hand_n to_o look_v on_o or_o else_o he_o must_v lie_v under_o and_o bear_v the_o imputation_n of_o a_o unfit_a ambassador_n of_o his_o master_n to_o his_o people_n in_o this_o far_o at_o least_o which_o be_v very_o far_o in_o my_o apprehension_n that_o he_o can_v so_o much_o as_o read_v understand_o his_o master_n word_n but_o by_o other_o man_n eye_n and_o if_o so_o how_o can_v he_o then_o possible_o from_o his_o own_o knowledge_n bespeak_v and_o declare_v his_o master_n mind_n to_o his_o people_n and_o then_o they_o will_v conclude_v that_o therefore_o such_o wise_a one_o must_v suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v inform_v of_o the_o original_n when_o they_o be_v so_o much_o mistake_v about_o it_o but_o now_o at_o length_n we_o come_v to_o the_o last_o and_o yet_o the_o gross_a of_o all_o mr._n baxter_n mistake_n in_o this_o point_n for_o i_o think_v it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o most_o intolerable_o impertinent_a misapplication_n that_o ever_o a_o rational_a disputant_n be_v guilty_a of_o in_o cite_v a_o testimony_n to_o gain_v authority_n to_o any_o of_o his_o opinion_n so_o that_o the_o truth_n be_v i_o can_v but_o be_v sorry_a that_o i_o be_o necessitate_v to_o be_v so_o

resolve_v in_o silence_n to_o pass_v it_o over_o be_v it_o not_o thereby_o to_o procure_v hereafter_o more_o serious_a thought_n about_o the_o application_n of_o scriptural_a testimony_n to_o authorise_v man_n opinion_n and_o that_o more_o diligence_n may_v be_v use_v for_o the_o understanding_n of_o the_o original_a testimony_n of_o scripture_n than_o hitherto_o have_v be_v lest_o otherways_o application_n be_v find_v and_o prove_v to_o be_v nothing_o but_o most_o impertinent_a misapplication_n and_o deceive_a illusion_n both_o of_o other_o and_o of_o themselves_o who_o bring_v such_o testimony_n for_o confirmation_n of_o their_o tenet_n for_o this_o end_n i_o can_v but_o declare_v that_o mr._n baxter_n mistake_n and_o mis-application_n of_o that_o one_o text_n of_o scripture_n leu._n 26._o 18._o may_v be_v enough_o to_o frighten_v a_o hundred_o from_o cite_v any_o unknown_a testimony_n out_o of_o scripture_n lest_o they_o both_o deceive_v themselves_o and_o

forementioned_a text_n leu._n 26._o 18._o the_o state_n of_o the_o question_n be_v once_o more_o to_o be_v remember_v and_o mention_v and_o it_o be_v this_o whether_o the_o suffering_n of_o the_o

for_o satisfaction_n of_o his_o justice_n which_o mr._n baxter_n affirm_v or_o whether_o they_o be_v only_a chastisement_n and_o correction_n proceed_v from_o god_n our_o of_o fatherly_a love_n and_o mercy_n to_o reclaim_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n and_o to_o make_v they_o sensible_a of_o their_o offence_n and_o that_o god_n will_v not_o altogether_o hold_v they_o guiltless_a or_o count_v or_o declare_v they_o innocent_a who_o do_v know_o offend_v against_o he_o this_o mr._n baxter_n antagonist_n do_v affirm_v and_o upon_o this_o ground_n that_o the_o scripture_n do_v never_o call_v the_o affliction_n of_o the_o godly_a by_o the_o name_n of_o proper_a punishment_n because_o such_o be_v inflict_v for_o satisfaction_n to_o justice_n but_o nothing_o but_o infinite_a or_o eternal_a suffering_n can_v satisfy_v infinite_a justice_n and_o therefore_o none_o but_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n can_v be_v equivalent_a to_o such_o a_o satisfaction_n and_o he_o have_v pay_v it_o full_o for_o the_o godly_a and_o and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v pay_v nor_o just_o require_v to_o be_v pay_v again_o by_o themselves_o well_o but_o mr._n baxter_n will_v undertake_v to_o prove_v the_o contrary_a that_o the_o saint_n suffering_n be_v proper_a punishment_n etc._n etc._n and_o by_o this_o argument_n the_o scriin_n many_o place_n do_v call_v they_o proper_a punishment_n therefore_o they_o be_v so_o and_o be_v to_o be_v call_v so_o by_o we_o the_o antecedent_n be_v deny_v to_o he_o and_o his_o antagonist_n do_v affirm_v that_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o call_v they_o so_o now_o he_o be_v put_v to_o prove_v his_o assertion_n that_o the_o scripture_n do_v call_v the_o suffering_n of_o the_o godly_a proper_a punishment_n and_o not_o only_a chastisement_n and_o correction_n will_v it_o ever_o enter_v into_o any_o man_n imagination_n that_o so_o judicious_o rational_a and_o learn_v a_o man_n and_o so_o sharp_a sight_v in_o

when_o thou_o do_v sin_n and_o of_o fend_v i_o but_o no_o where_n do_v the_o scripture_n call_v the_o saint_n suffering_n proper_a punishment_n for_o if_o it_o do_v i_o desire_v you_o will_v but_o

not_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o therefore_o the_o consequent_a or_o the_o last_o proposition_n be_v also_o true_a viz_o that_o christian_n ought_v rather_o to_o call_v the_o saint_n suffering_n
