account_n upon_o which_o sin_n be_v so_o displease_v unto_o god_n be_v this_o man_n by_o sin_n prefer_v his_o own_o will_n before_o his_o creator_n will_n god_n have_v declare_v this_o or_o that_o to_o be_v his_o will_n in_o such_o or_o such_o a_o law_n of_o he_o but_o man_n will_n lie_v cross_a and_o contrary_a hereunto_o and_o when_o man_n sin_n he_o make_v god_n will_n to_o stoop_v to_o his_o will_n now_o what_o be_v this_o but_o a_o manifest_a contempt_n of_o god_n when_o man_n who_o be_v but_o a_o creature_n prefer_v his_o own_o private_a will_n above_o the_o supreme_a and_o sovereign_a will_n of_o his_o maker_n 5._o sin_n be_v most_o displease_v unto_o god_n upon_o this_o account_n because_o man_n by_o sin_n make_v himself_o he_o last_o end_n and_o refer_v all_o to_o himself_o man_n when_o he_o sin_n seek_v not_o to_o please_v god_n but_o seek_v to_o please_v himself_o only_o and_o what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o make_v himself_o he_o last_o end_n now_o as_o the_o quintessence_n of_o holiness_n lie_v in_o love_n to_o god_n so_o the_o very_a quintessence_n of_o sin_n lie_v in_o self-love_n now_o when_o man_n be_v whole_o take_v up_o in_o self-love_n and_o self-pleasing_a he_o be_v perfect_o carry_v off_o from_o god_n as_o his_o last_o end_n and_o whole_o centre_n in_o himself_o and_o when_o man_n make_v himself_o he_o last_o end_n what_o do_v he_o do_v but_o as_o it_o be_v make_v himself_o a_o god_n to_o himself_o for_o what_o be_v more_o proper_a to_o god_n than_o this_o to_o be_v his_o own_o end_n to_o make_v himself_o he_o last_o end_n that_o which_o be_v proper_a to_o god_n be_v to_o be_v the_o first_o cause_n and_o the_o last_o end_n now_o man_n by_o sin_n make_v himself_o he_o last_o end_n and_o so_o by_o consequence_n make_v himself_o a_o god_n to_o himself_o if_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n that_o it_o cause_v man_n to_o dethrone_v god_n and_o to_o set_v up_o himself_o for_o god_n instead_o of_o god_n this_o must_v needs_o render_v sin_n most_o displease_v unto_o god_n and_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v high_o offend_v with_o man_n by_o reason_n of_o it_o 5._o the_o five_o proposition_n be_v man_n have_v sin_v the_o nature_n of_o god_n as_o he_o be_v just_a as_o well_o as_o the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o he_o be_v true_a and_o faithful_a to_o his_o word_n incline_v he_o to_o punish_v sin_n i_o will_v not_o enter_v into_o that_o dispute_n whether_o or_o no_o god_n out_o of_o his_o absolute_a power_n may_v not_o have_v pardon_v sin_n without_o satisfaction_n this_o be_v a_o question_n much_o agitate_a but_o i_o shall_v wave_v that_o controversy_n and_o shall_v content_v myself_o to_o lay_v down_o such_o principle_n as_o be_v more_o plain_a and_o may_v be_v more_o easy_o take_v in_o by_o all_o 1._o then_o i_o say_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n as_o he_o be_v just_a incline_v he_o to_o punish_v sin_n god_n be_v often_o call_v in_o scripture_n a_o just_a and_o a_o righteous_a god_n and_o as_o he_o be_v a_o righteous_a god_n so_o he_o love_v righteousness_n psal_n 11.7_o the_o righteous_a god_n love_v righteousness_n and_o in_o that_o place_n the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n be_v give_v as_o the_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v that_o god_n punish_v wicked_a man_n for_o in_o the_o verse_n immediate_o forego_v it_o be_v say_v upon_o the_o wicked_a he_o shall_v rain_v snare_n fire_n and_o brimstone_n and_o a_o horrible_a tempest_n this_o shall_v be_v the_o portion_n of_o their_o cup._n and_o then_o the_o reason_n be_v add_v in_o those_o word_n for_o the_o righteous_a god_n love_v righteousness_n as_o much_o as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v say_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n nature_n incline_v he_o to_o deal_v righteous_o with_o man_n tribuere_fw-la justitia_fw-la est_fw-la suum_fw-la cuique_fw-la tribuere_fw-la it_o be_v the_o part_n of_o justice_n to_o distribute_v to_o every_o man_n his_o own_o therefore_o since_o punishment_n belong_v to_o wicked_a man_n it_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n to_o measure_v out_o to_o they_o what_o they_o do_v deserve_v to_o understand_v this_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o man_n stand_v in_o the_o relation_n of_o a_o creature_n unto_o god_n and_o upon_o that_o account_n be_v under_o a_o law_n of_o obedience_n to_o his_o maker_n god_n have_v also_o lay_v so_o great_a a_o obligation_n upon_o man_n by_o give_v he_o so_o excellent_a a_o be_v in_o case_n man_n sin_n against_o the_o duty_n which_o he_o be_v under_o as_o a_o creature_n and_o if_o he_o sin_n against_o that_o obligation_n which_o be_v lay_v upon_o he_o by_o his_o creator_n in_o give_v he_o a_o be_v and_o so_o excellent_a a_o be_v man_n in_o so_o do_v sin_n against_o all_o right_a and_o equity_n and_o god_n as_o he_o be_v the_o rector_n and_o

hence_o be_v that_o of_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 1.18_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n against_o all_o ungodliness_n and_o unrighteousness_n of_o man_n the_o plain_a meaning_n i_o take_v to_o be_v that_o god_n be_v high_o offend_v with_o man_n by_o reason_n of_o sin_n and_o he_o testify_v his_o displeasure_n against_o sin_n by_o execute_v his_o judgement_n in_o a_o open_a
