my_o god_n be_v power_n and_o strength_n and_o with_o thou_o aught_o to_o be_v dominion_n and_o fear_n my_o flesh_n tremble_v for_o fear_n of_o thou_o and_o i_o be_o afraid_a of_o thy_o judgement_n thou_o be_v terrible_a o_o my_o god_n as_o well_o as_o lovely_a but_o thou_o be_v also_o lovely_a in_o thy_o very_a terror_n turn_v away_o thy_o eye_n from_o i_o 6.5_o for_o they_o have_v overcome_v i_o they_o have_v overcome_v i_o with_o their_o dread_a as_o well_o as_o with_o their_o beauty_n for_o as_o thou_o be_v beautiful_a o_o my_o love_n as_o tirzah_n comely_a as_o jerusalem_n so_o be_v thou_o also_o terrible_a as_o a_o army_n with_o banner_n o_o my_o omnipotent_a love_n with_o what_o safety_n as_o well_o as_o delight_v do_v i_o sit_v under_o thy_o shadow_n thou_o have_v bring_v i_o into_o thy_o banqueting-house_n and_o thy_o banner_n over_o i_o be_v power_n as_o well_o as_o love._n thy_o love_n be_v strong_a than_o death_n what_o need_v i_o fear_v thy_o left_a hand_n be_v under_o my_o head_n and_o thy_o right_a hand_n do_v embrace_v i_o and_o why_o then_o shall_v any_o dread_a approach_v i_o the_o lord_n be_v my_o light_n and_o my_o salvation_n who_o then_o shall_v i_o fear_v he_o be_v the_o strength_n of_o my_o life_n of_o who_o then_o shall_v i_o be_v afraid_a o_o my_o god_n why_o be_v not_o my_o faith_n like_o thy_o power_n thou_o can_v do_v all_o thing_n and_o why_o be_v my_o faith_n limit_v let_v i_o imitate_v thou_o o_o my_o god_n in_o this_o thy_o infinity_o and_o grant_v i_o such_o a_o victorious_a such_o a_o omnipotent_a faith_n that_o as_o to_o thou_o nothing_o be_v too_o hard_a to_o do_v so_o to_o i_o nothing_o may_v be_v too_o hard_a to_o believe_v amen_n contemplation_n vii_o of_o the_o divine_a justice_n and_o veracity_n i._o from_o the_o omnipotence_n of_o god_n i_o proceed_v to_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o justice_n this_o be_v as_o necessary_a a_o qualification_n in_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n as_o the_o other_o now_o by_o justice_n in_o this_o place_n i_o understand_v particular_a not_o universal_a justice_n and_o of_o particular_a justice_n not_o that_o which_o be_v commutative_a for_o this_o have_v no_o place_n in_o god_n for_o 11.35_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v who_o have_v first_o give_v to_o he_o and_o it_o shall_v be_v recompense_v to_o he_o again_o but_o that_o which_o be_v distributive_a and_o consist_v in_o a_o constant_a will_n of_o dispense_n to_o every_o person_n according_a to_o his_o desert_n ii_o this_o justice_n of_o god_n be_v the_o same_o in_o the_o moral_a world_n as_o order_n and_o proportion_n be_v in_o the_o natural_a it_o be_v give_v to_o every_o thing_n its_o due_a place_n and_o station_n and_o dispose_v it_o according_a to_o its_o nature_n and_o condition_n for_o as_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o natural_a world_n arise_v from_o proportion_n so_o do_v the_o beauty_n of_o the_o moral_a world_n arise_v also_o from_o due_a order_n and_o proportion_n and_o as_o god_n have_v strict_o observe_v this_o rule_n in_o the_o make_n of_o the_o world_n have_v make_v all_o thing_n in_o number_n weight_n and_o measure_n so_o we_o may_v be_v sure_o he_o proceed_v by_o the_o same_o standard_n in_o the_o government_n and_o conduct_n of_o it_o though_o the_o exactness_n of_o this_o latter_a be_v not_o so_o obvious_a to_o our_o observation_n as_o that_o of_o the_o former_a nor_o be_v we_o so_o well_o able_a to_o judge_v of_o the_o moral_a as_o of_o the_o natural_a geometry_n of_o god._n iii_o now_o that_o god_n be_v thus_o just_a always_o act_v according_a to_o true_a order_n and_o proportion_n may_v sufficient_o be_v make_v out_o from_o this_o single_a consideration_n all_o order_n and_o proportion_n as_o every_o one_o i_o suppose_v will_v ready_o grant_v be_v in_o itself_o consider_v lovely_a and_o desirable_a if_o so_o than_o it_o can_v be_v nill_v or_o refuse_v for_o itself_o or_o as_o such_o if_o so_o then_o whenever_o it_o be_v refuse_v it_o must_v be_v refuse_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o some_o other_o great_a good_a if_o so_o than_o this_o other_o great_a good_n must_v be_v either_o the_o private_a interest_n of_o the_o refuser_n or_o some_o other_o private_a interest_n or_o the_o public_a interest_n but_o neihter_n of_o these_o can_v here_o find_v any_o admission_n it_o can_v be_v for_o the_o private_a interest_n of_o the_o

interest_n for_o the_o great_a interest_n of_o the_o public_a consist_v in_o order_n and_o proportion_n neither_o can_v this_o order_n be_v violate_v for_o the_o interest_n of_o any_o other_o private_a person_n because_o that_o be_v not_o a_o great_a but_o on_o the_o contrary_a a_o infinite_o less_o good_a order_n and_o proportion_n be_v the_o good_a of_o the_o public_a which_o be_v always_o great_a than_o any_o private_a whatsoever_o since_o therefore_o order_n and_o proportion_n can_v be_v violate_v by_o god_n for_o any_o of_o these_o end_n nor_o for_o its_o own_o sake_n it_o be_v as_o such_o lovely_a and_o desirable_a as_o be_v suppose_v it_o follow_v that_o order_n and_o proportion_n can_v possible_o be_v violate_v by_o god_n at_o all_o and_o consequent_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o god_n shall_v always_o effectual_o will_v order_n and_o proportion_n which_o be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o be_v iust._n iv._o by_o this_o justice_n or_o will_v of_o follow_a order_n and_o proportion_n god_n stand_v engage_v not_o to_o punish_v a_o innocent_a creature_n or_o to_o afflict_v he_o with_o any_o evil_n great_a than_o that_o good_a which_o he_o have_v confer_v upon_o he_o within_o that_o compass_n indeed_o he_o may_v for_o that_o be_v only_o to_o deduct_v from_o that_o happiness_n every_o degree_n of_o which_o be_v a_o free_a favour_n but_o he_o can_v impose_v the_o least_o grain_n or_o scruple_n of_o evil_n upon_o he_o beyond_o the_o good_a confer_v without_o some_o demerit_n of_o the_o creature_n much_o less_o will_v this_o justice_n of_o god_n permit_v that_o he_o shall_v predetermin_v a_o innocent_a creature_n without_o respect_n to_o any_o crime_n mere_o for_o his_o own_o will_n and_o pleasure_n to_o everlasting_a misery_n he_o that_o can_v make_v this_o consistent_a with_o god_n justice_n or_o any_o justice_n in_o the_o world_n have_v need_n be_v a_o very_a good_a reconciler_n v._o but_o now_o whether_o god_n justice_n oblige_v he_o to_o

between_o some_o school_n and_o be_v too_o disputable_a to_o be_v positive_o determine_v for_o my_o part_n i_o be_o more_o incline_v to_o think_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n oblige_v he_o to_o punish_v sin_n some_o where_o or_o other_o and_o that_o vindicative_a justice_n be_v essential_a to_o he_o vi_o that_o it_o be_v so_o far_o essential_a to_o he_o that_o he_o can_v but_o punish_v a_o impenitent_a sinner_n few_o i_o believe_v will_v question_v for_o nothing_o in_o the_o world_n can_v be_v imagine_v more_o against_o order_n and_o proportion_n than_o that_o a_o sinner_n shall_v be_v

make_v to_o god_n for_o it_o it_o be_v plain_a de_fw-la facto_fw-la that_o god_n will_v not_o remit_v sin_n without_o satisfaction_n and_o that_o too_o the_o high_a imaginable_a which_o make_v it_o very_o probable_a that_o he_o can_v not_o for_o be_v it_o reasonable_a to_o think_v that_o god_n will_v deliver_v up_o his_o only_a and_o belove_a son_n to_o that_o bitter_a dispensation_n if_o with_o the_o safety_n of_o his_o justice_n he_o can_v have_v pardon_v we_o mere_o for_o our_o repentance_n without_o such_o a_o costly_a sacrifice_n and_o that_o he_o can_v not_o do_v not_o that_o prayer_n of_o our_o saviour_n argue_v which_o he_o use_v in_o his_o agony_n father_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a let_v this_o cup_n pass_v from_o i_o which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v father_n if_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n may_v be_v remit_v any_o other_o way_n than_o by_o way_n of_o suffering_n i_o desire_v i_o may_v not_o suffer_v this_o i_o think_v be_v the_o obvious_a sense_n of_o the_o
