not destroy Adam for his sinne and deserued death now doth God pardone and pittie him how can this stand in the course of Gods iustice when as at the deliuerie of his Commandement he threatned death vnto Adam saying In the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt die the death To aunswere this Obiection The aunswere to the obiection The Iustice of God is perfectly satisfied according to his word for as Man sinned so Man for his sinne had the sentence and iudgement of death but the execution of death for sinne was spared in Adam and layde vpon Christ Esa 53.10 Ephe. 5.2 who was made an Offering for sinne and appoynted by God him selfe before the foundation of the world euen for all thē that put their trust in him so that the iustice of God taketh effect in man but Chrst perfect God perfect man hath ouercome death although his humanity for a time was seased vpon and kept in the graue by death to satisfie the sentence of his Fathers iustice pronounced against Adam yet by his Deitie he raised vp his Humanity from death 1. Cor. 15.20 Joh. 17.4.5 and glorified it with Immortalitie in heauen and he wil also glorifie all the faythfull that trust in him Rom. 6.5 Gal. 4.6 being ingrafted into his body Sanctified by his spirit whereby they cry Abba Father Gods prouident care ouer Adam euen in this world And notwithstanding that Adam was cast out of Paradise wherby he had a dayly continual feeling of his miserie purchased by his sinne yet God left him not forlorne but by his gracious prouidence louing eye which he had ouer him he kept him safe not onely from the rage and furie of cruell beastes which became rebellious vnto Adam but also from the crueltie of that roaring Lion Satan 1. Pet. 5.8 which gaped and euer looked for the eternall fall and destruction of Adam And God also blessed his labour that the Earth thereby should bring foorth fruite meate vnto him for the preseruation of this life and likewise he continued the loue betweene Adam and his wife that neither of thē should take exception one against the other for their eiection and casting out of Paradise but rather make much of and comfort one another in the time of their pilgrimage and miserie of this world The mutuall loue which should he betweene man and wife Which teacheth vs that man and wife should neuer fall out or be offended with each other for the losses of the riches and possessions of this world when as our Parentes twitted not each other in the teeth whē they lost the possession of that ioyfull Paradise O happie man The happy translation of man to a heauenly paradise who hath so mercifull a God that sinning yet thou art pardoned being lost art found reiected yet receiued dead yet lyueth and liuing shalt be glorified with him not in the earthly but in the heauenly Paradise for euermore The glory of heauen The glory whereof is infinite for the riches therein are without measure there is plentie without want comfort without griefe light without darkenesse life without death The ioy of Gods presence with his saincte Gods presence is as a bright shining Temple in the middest thereof before whose throne doe stand the holy Angels and Sainctes whose eyes are neuer satisfied with beholding him their eares neuer glutted with hearing him their tongues neuer silent from praysing him their handes neuer wearie with lifting vp vnto him their hearts neuer filled with the sweetnes of his loue and their feete neuer tyred with walking in his wayes Reu. 22.1.2 There is the Water of Life euer running the Tree of life euer growing and the fruite of Loue and peace neuer fading To which place and Paradise God of his infinite mercy bring vs for Christ Iesus sake our onely Lord and Sauiour Amen FINIS

God hauing a reasonable soule indued with knowledge in generall and a commaundement giuen vnto him in particular be excused by simplicitie when hee breaketh the Commaundement and Law of God the proclamation whereof Exod. 19.16 is declared with a shrill Trumpet that the deafe may heare it For Rom. 10.18 The sound thereof is gone out to the vttermost partes of the earth the contentes whereof are written in great Characters that the simple sighted may run and read it and the knowledge whereof is as cleare as the light for Psal 119.105 Heb. 5.12 It giueth Light and Vnderstanding to the Simple and It is Milke to the weake Meate to the strong and therfore Simplicitie can be no excuse for Sinne. For as the Law and Commaundement of God is giuen to all without respect of persons so it taketh vengeance against all without respect of excuses And as the fire will burne the child A similitude that all are vnder the cursse of the Law if it fall into it as wel as the aged the parents which should haue looked after the Childe and not the fire is to be blamed because it keepeth the naturall working and effect wherefore it was ordayned euen so the Law taketh holde vpon euery one that breaketh it for both young and old ignorant learned shall be iudged and condemned by it But the Parentes shall answere for the sinnes of their Children the Maisters for the sinnes of their Seruantes the Princes for the sinnes of their People and the Pastors and Ministers for the sinnes of their Flocke Ezek. 3.17 for they are as the Lords Watchmen to looke ouer their Family Flocke and People If therefore they regarde not to giue warning nor admonish the wicked of their wicked wayes that they might liue and be saued yet Ezek. 3.18 The Wicked man shall die in his iniquitie but his blood will I require at thy hand sayth the Lord. SECT 6. AS touching the Effect of eating the forbidden fruite Two thinges therein are to bee considered The Miserie of Man by Transgressing and the Iustice of God by Punishing To disobey Gods Word Disobeydience the cause of the losse of Gods loue is to disinherite our selues of Gods loue But our Parentes did disobey Gods word therefore as much as in them lay they disinherited themselues of Gods loue and to be disinherited of Gods loue is to be bound ouer to a perpetuall separation from the comfortable presence of God to remaine howling in Hell with the Diuell and his Angels for euermore Rom. 6.23 This is The reward of sinne euen eternall Death which our Parentes purchased to them selues and their posteritie by eating the forbidden Fruite had not God in his mercie spared and redeemed them in the loue of his Sonne Iesus Christ Sinne imbraced by the soule and practised by the body both soule body shall suffer for it For as Sinne is first embraced by the Soule which is immortall afterward practized by the body which by sinne is made mortall yet at the generall resurrection the body shall be made immortall to suffer with the soule and that most iustly For as it sinned with the soule so also must it be condemned and suffer with the soule and as the soule and body maketh one Man so the condemnation of them both maketh but one perfect execution of Gods iustice against them For as Sinne is sweete and pleasaunt vnto Man in his life so the punishment of Man for Sinne shall be greiuous in his death the paines and torments whereof can no more be declared 1. Cor. 2.9 then The ioyes of heauen can be expressed which neither Eye hath seene nor Eare hath heard nor the Heart of man can not conceiue I might also speake of the punishmentes in this life wherewith God doth punish the wicked for their sinnes but of this we may read at large in the 28. chapter of Deutronomie to the which I do referre you wherein as in a perfect Mirror and Glasse you may behold and see the miserie of Man euen in this life for breaking and disobeying the Commaundementes of God Gods iustice is most vpright and necessary And touching the Iustice of God in punishing of sinne it necessarily agreeth both with his Nature and with his Word By his Nature he is most holie and therefore can not but punish iniquitie By his Word he hath threatned punishment for sinne and therefore sinners must looke for punishment because he is most true For who can charge the Lord that hee hath spoken and not performed what he hath spoken at all times and in all ages Or whether any Tittle of the word of God hath fayled and not taken effect Math. 5.18 at his appoynted time against the workers of iniquitie as well high as low rich or poore and 24.35 For heauen and earth shal passe away but my wordes shall not passe away sayeth the Lord. Are not all men All men are sinners aswell peasants as Princes proceeded from the loynes of Adam Hee sinned wee as children and members of him haue also sinned with him hee repented and was saued by beleeuing the Promise but whosoeuer and of what estate soeuer they be that doe not Repent Math. 3.2 John 3.18 and Beleeue in Iesus Christ the promised Seede can not be saued So sincere and pure is the Iustice of God * There is no respect of persons with God Deut. 10.17 Rom. 2.11 Exod. 14.28 that there is no Respect of persons with him For he Drowned and destroyed aswell Pharaoh the King as his meanest Subiect that did driue his Chariot Coran Num. 16.32 Dathan and Abiram were swallowed vp of the earth as the meanest of their Famulie It is not the potencie maiestie dignitie honour riches strength or worldly wisedome that can stop the sentence of Gods iustice or stay the stroke of Gods hand for he is pure in his iustice and will not bee ouercome with Bribes for the round World is his and the riches thereof And farre dearer is innocent Lazarus in the sight of God Luk. 16.22.23 then wicked Diues clothed in Purple and abounding in wealth For Psal 33.18 The eye of the Lord is vpon them that feare him and put their trust in his mercie SECT 7. AS touching the Inquisition of God after Adam and Eue therein Three things are to be considered The Time of the Inquisition the Cause of the Inquisition and the Inquisition it selfe God made Inquirie after Adam and Eue when as they departed from him and had eaten of the forbidden Fruite as Salomon did after Shimei 1. king 2.36 vnto the end of the chap. when he departed from Ierusalem and had broken his Commaundement for the Lord neuer punisheth but when man offendeth The cry of sinne For our sinnes haue Voyces Winges to cry and flie vp before the throne of God for reuenge and iudgment as did the sinnes of Sodome and
