his_o will_n of_o purpose_n what_o he_o will_v certain_o and_o infallible_o do_v himself_o let_v it_o be_v observe_v that_o god_n will_n as_o to_o some_o precept_n and_o command_n to_o man_n do_v vary_v and_o alter_v as_o it_o please_v he_o as_o for_o example_n several_a ritual_a command_n about_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n which_o he_o require_v in_o his_o worship_n under_o the_o old_a

from_o eternity_n to_o eternity_n yea_o to_o make_v this_o distinction_n far_o more_o evident_a god_n do_v sometime_o give_v out_o a_o command_n to_o man_n to_o do_v a_o thing_n and_o yet_o may_v absolute_o purpose_n and_o intend_v to_o hinder_v a_o man_n from_o do_v of_o it_o as_o in_o the_o case_n of_o god_n command_n to_o abraham_n to_o offer_v his_o son_n isaac_n gen._n 22.2_o and_o he_o

the_o knife_n to_o slay_v his_o son_n the_o lord_n call_v unto_o he_o and_o say_v lay_v not_o thy_o hand_n upon_o thy_o son_n neither_o do_v thou_o any_o thing_n unto_o he_o here_o we_o see_v that_o god_n give_v out_o a_o command_n to_o do_v

a_o thing_n which_o he_o never_o purpose_v and_o intend_v to_o be_v be_v do_v yea_o which_o he_o resolve_v to_o hinder_v the_o do_v of_o therefore_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n for_o god_n to_o command_v we_o to_o do_v a_o thing_n and_o another_o thing_n for_o god_n to_o purpose_n and_o intend_v this_o thing_n shall_v certain_o be_v effect_v yea_o take_v another_o instance_n concern_v pharaoh_n exod._n 4.21_o and_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o moses_n when_o thou_o go_v to_o return_v into_o egypt_n see_v that_o thou_o do_v all_o those_o wonder_n before_o pharaoh_n which_o i_o have_v put_v in_o thy_o hand_n but_o i_o will_v harden_v his_o heart_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o let_v the_o people_n go_v god_n send_v a_o command_n to_o pharaoh_n to_o let_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n go_v out_o of_o his_o land_n exod._n 5.1_o but_o before_o ever_o moses_n come_v to_o pharaoh_n with_o this_o message_n and_o command_n god_n say_v to_o moses_n i_o be_o sure_a that_o the_o king_n of_o egypt_n will_v not_o let_v you_o go_v no_o not_o by_o a_o mighty_a hand_n exod._n 3.19_o so_o here_o you_o see_v that_o god_n as_o sovereign_a lord_n may_v give_v out_o a_o command_n to_o show_v his_o authority_n over_o man_n and_o require_v a_o thing_n of_o man_n as_o his_o duty_n when_o he_o do_v not_o intend_v to_o enable_v a_o man_n to_o do_v it_o yea_o when_o god_n intend_v to_o harden_v a_o
