his_o saint_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n the_o chief_a question_n 1_o what_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v 2_o who_o give_v it_o 3_o for_o what._n 4_o whether_o it_o agree_v with_o god_n justice_n 5_o

which_o to_o the_o faithful_a and_o elect_a impute_v not_o any_o sin_n and_o therefore_o do_v in_o like_a sort_n love_v they_o as_o if_o they_o have_v never_o sin_v and_o deliver_v they_o from_o all_o

the_o merit_n of_o his_o son_n remit_v our_o sin_n to_o we_o yet_o he_o afflict_v we_o as_o yet_o in_o this_o life_n not_o thereby_o to_o punish_v we_o but_o fatherly_a to_o chastise_v us._n neither_o yet_o because_o god_n do_v not_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n must_v we_o therefore_o think_v that_o he_o be_v not_o displease_v with_o they_o for_o he_o be_v high_o displease_v &_o offend_v with_o the_o sin_n also_o of_o his_o saint_n &_o choose_v 2_o who_o give_v remission_n of_o sin_n remission_n of_o sin_n be_v give_v of_o god_n only_o who_o as_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n say_v cap_n 43._o

and_o christ_n also_o in_o plain_a word_n in_o the_o evangelist_n speak_v of_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n now_o the_o cause_n that_o god_n only_o that_o be_v the_o father_n the_o son_n &_o the_o holy_a ghost_n only_o remit_v sin_n be_v this_o because_o none_o but_o the_o party_n offend_v can_v remit_v sin_n but_o only_a god_n the_o father_n the_o son_n &_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v

whatsoever_o you_o bound_v on_o earth_n shall_v be_v bind_v in_o heaven_n here_o christ_n meet_v with_o a_o objection_n for_o the_o excommune_v person_n may_v object_v what_o do_v this_o touch_v i_o

what_o they_o public_o determine_v of_o he_o whether_o thou_o may_v account_v he_o for_o a_o heathen_a and_o publican_n and_o furthermore_o paul_n elsewhere_o forbid_v we_o to_o eat_v or_o drink_v with_o a_o wicked_a person_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o a_o knowledge_n only_o in_o the_o mind_n against_o the_o example_n paul_n will_v that_o the_o incestuous_a person_n be_v cast_v out_o of_o

2.6_o it_o be_v sufficient_a unto_o the_o same_o man_n that_o he_o be_v rebuke_v of_o many_o therefore_o those_o word_n account_v he_o for_o a_o heathen_a &_o a_o publican_n and_o put_v he_o away_o
