object_n of_o your_o discontent_n and_o that_o in_o reference_n to_o my_o familiarity_n among_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a man_n come_v now_o let_v

as_o the_o apostle_n james_n have_v it_o let_v no_o man_n say_v 1._o jam._n 1._o when_o he_o be_v tempt_v that_o he_o be_v tempt_v of_o god_n for_o god_n tempt_v no_o man_n etc._n etc._n and_o that_o wicked_a man_n taste_v of_o destruction_n be_v not_o from_o a_o necessity_n of_o god_n will_v it_o so_o but_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o own_o impenitency_n he_o have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o the_o death_n of_o he_o that_o die_v but_o rather_o that_o he_o shall_v turn_v from_o his_o wickedness_n and_o live_v and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o wicked_a be_v for_o the_o day_n of_o wrath_n it_o may_v have_v allusion_n to_o paul_n word_n meat_n for_o the_o belly_n and_o the_o belly_n for_o meat_n but_o god_n etc._n etc._n so_o wicked_a person_n for_o destruction_n and_o destruction_n be_v a_o fit_a and_o proper_a place_n for_o wicked_a man_n not_o that_o god_n will_v that_o any_o shall_v perish_v but_o all_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n objec_n answer_v to_o the_o second_o objec_n to_o the_o second_o objection_n judas_n 4._o certain_a man_n be_v ordain_v of_o old_a unto_o condemnation_n from_o whence_o be_v gather_v that_o god_n from_o eternity_n do_v appoint_v some_o person_n to_o destruction_n be_v it_o answer_v from_o the_o same_o verse_n that_o those_o certain_a person_n be_v ungodly_a man_n turn_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n into_o wantonness_n so_o their_o condemnation_n do_v arise_v from_o their_o ungodliness_n and_o unprofitableness_n under_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n turn_v it_o into_o lasciviousness_n and_o not_o bare_o as_o they_o be_v person_n object_n object_n but_o you_o will_v say_v those_o person_n be_v condemn_v of_o old_a that_o be_v to_o say_v before_o they_o be_v bear_v or_o in_o a_o capacity_n to_o act_v ungodliness_n or_o

person_n as_o simple_o consider_v in_o themselves_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o a_o instance_n suppose_v there_o be_v a_o act_n of_o parliament_n make_v in_o this_o year_n that_o drunkenness_n shall_v be_v punish_v with_o death_n be_v not_o all_o drunkard_n though_o it_o be_v five_o hundred_o year_n after_o condemn_v to_o die_v by_o that_o law_n not_o as_o they_o be_v richard_n thomas_n or_o john_n such_o a_o one_o etc._n etc._n but_o as_o drunkard_n or_o person_n offend_v such_o a_o righteous_a law_n the_o decree_n or_o predestination_n of_o god_n from_o eternity_n be_v that_o he_o will_v wound_v the_o hairy_a scalp_n of_o every_o one_o that_o go_v on_o in_o iniquity_n and_o the_o ungodly_a shall_v be_v turn_v into_o hell_n and_o all_o that_o forget_v god_n this_o decree_n or_o
