A74975	A manifest and breife discovery of some of the errours contained in a dialogue called the Marrow of moderne divinity. Wherein is shewen, especially the authors errour in the manner of the iustification of a sinner, and the truth cleared from all the falshoods contained in that booke concerning the same, with some other of his errours.

page_z 7._o and_o the_o 10._o and_o indeed_o throughout_o your_o whole_a book_n i_o deny_v it_o and_o i_o demand_v your_o proof_n for_o your_o opinion_n out_o of_o scripture_n we_o read_v but_o of_o

create_v a_o perfect_a creature_n full_a of_o holiness_n purity_n and_o uprightnes_n but_o yet_o that_o it_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o write_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n in_o his_o heart_n before_o his_o fall_n i_o can_v see_v neither_o find_v i_o any_o scripture_n to_o lead_v i_o to_o believe_v it_o i_o acknowledge_v that_o assoon_o as_o ever_o adam_n have_v transgress_v he_o come_v to_o know_v good_a and_o evil_a which_o he_o do_v not_o know_v before_o and_o this_o law_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n be_v then_o write_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o he_o that_o can_v not_o keep_v one_o commandment_n have_v many_o more_o give_v he_o so_o that_o now_o by_o his_o fall_n the_o very_a flood_n gate_n of_o sin_n be_v set_v open_a through_o his_o transgression_n to_o the_o drown_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o posterity_n in_o misery_n but_o because_o this_o opinion_n be_v so_o often_o repeat_v by_o the_o author_n in_o his_o book_n i_o desire_v to_o know_v to_o what_o it_o tend_v and_o what_o use_n we_o may_v make_v of_o it_o do_v it_o serve_v to_o illustrate_v or_o set_v forth_o any_o point_n of_o doctrine_n in_o the_o scripture_n or_o do_v the_o contrary_a which_o i_o have_v

tend_v to_o edification_n but_o be_v a_o mere_a fancy_n of_o your_o own_o brain_n you_o tell_v we_o it_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o all_o author_n and_o interpreter_n that_o you_o know_v but_o you_o tell_v we_o none_o of_o their_o name_n nor_o none_o of_o the_o scripture_n they_o have_v so_o interpret_v for_o the_o proof_n thereof_o and_o so_o i_o take_v it_o as_o your_o own_o opinion_n which_o i_o dare_v not_o receive_v until_o i_o see_v better_a ground_n for_o it_o i_o take_v notice_n also_o how_o fine_o you_o will_v insinuate_v unto_o we_o that_o adam_n in_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n do_v break_v all_o the_o ten_o commandment_n and_o have_v you_o go_v through_o they_o all_o doubtless_o you_o have_v please_v yourself_o therein_o but_o what_o content_v you_o have_v give_v to_o your_o reader_n in_o it_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o judicious_a to_o consider_v of_o and_o so_o pass_v it_o over_o and_o come_v to_o something_o that_o remain_v page_n 28._o and_o 29._o you_o affirm_v that_o adam_n fall_v the_o very_a same_o day_n that_o he_o be_v create_v and_o the_o ground_n of_o your_o opinion_n be_v psalm_n 49.12_o which_o text_n in_o the_o hebrew_n you_o say_v be_v thus_o read_v adam_n be_v in_o honour_n do_v not_o lodge_v a_o night_n in_o it_o you_o have_v a_o good_a art_n in_o add_v to_o the_o scripture_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v hereafter_o and_o you_o have_v quote_v mr._n aynsworth_n in_o the_o margin_n to_o help_v you_o but_o he_o do_v not_o i_o have_v examine_v mr._n aynsworth_n upon_o that_o psalm_n but_o he_o affirm_v no_o such_o thing_n he_o say_v this_o may_v be_v mind_v both_o for_o the_o first_o adam_n who_o continue_v not_o in_o his_o dignity_n and_o so_o for_o all_o his_o child_n these_o be_v his_o own_o word_n now_o how_o can_v you_o gather_v from_o hence_o that_o adam_n fall_v the_o same_o day_n he_o be_v create_v i_o wish_v you_o to_o observe_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o that_o psalm_n intend_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o adam_n fall_n but_o of_o man_n be_v in_o honour_n the_o instability_n thereof_o and_o the_o short_a continuance_n of_o it_o and_o i_o suppose_v you_o know_v adam_n to_o be_v the_o common_a name_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o the_o first_o man_n adam_n can_v be_v here_o mean_v leave_v these_o your_o feign_a devise_n and_o keep_v close_o to_o the_o scripture_n and_o seek_v not_o to_o know_v in_o divine_a thing_n anything_o but_o what_o be_v there_o write_v to_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o testimony_n if_o they_o speak_v not_o it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v no_o truth_n in_o they_o be_v not_o wise_a above_o that_o which_o be_v write_v and_o do_v not_o you_o publish_v that_o for_o truth_n which_o you_o have_v no_o ground_n for_o secret_a thing_n belong_v unto_o god_n but_o thin_n

fall_v the_o same_o day_n that_o he_o be_v create_v for_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n pass_v after_o man_n be_v create_v which_o be_v set_v down_o in_o the_o second_o chapter_n of_o genesis_n which_o be_v not_o likely_a be_v do_v all_o in_o one_o day_n neither_o do_v i_o know_v of_o what_o use_v this_o opinion_n be_v but_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o reader_n to_o consider_v off_o and_o although_o i_o free_o confess_v that_o christ_n offer_v up_o himself_o the_o six_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o that_o adam_n be_v create_v the_o six_o day_n but_o must_v it_o therefore_o needs_o follow_v that_o adam_n fall_v the_o very_a same_o day_n that_o he_o be_v create_v i_o know_v no_o necessity_n thereof_o page_n 43._o i_o wonder_v you_o dare_v be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o alter_v the_o word_n and_o so_o the_o fence_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 5.13_o your_o word_n be_v thus_o before_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n sin_n be_v in_o the_o world_n yet_o do_v they_o not_o

where_o there_o be_v no_o law_n the_o apostle_n prove_v plain_o here_o that_o there_o be_v a_o law_n write_v in_o man_n heart_n before_o the_o give_v of_o the_o law_n upon_o mount_n sinai_n the_o
