is absolute in either part are 1. To confesse with the mouth c. is required to salvation 2. To beleeve in the heart c. is required to salvation 3. If thou doe both this and that thou shalt be saved 12. If a copulate composition be also in the consequent and that it be large it may be summarily contracted into one notion containing all its parts that the Doctrines which are framed out of it applyed to the parts of the antecedent may be the brieflier proposed Likewise the antecedent that it may be the easilier applyed to the parts of the consequent So in the Commination where there is such a copulation the parts may be laid as tending to the evill denounced Luke 12.45,46 Where out of the Hypothesis of the Dissemblable behaviours of the servant there is foretold a Dissemblable event If that servant say c. as he may but ought not to say Axiome 1. That servant saith in his heart My Lord delayeth his comming it tends to damnation 2. He begins to beat the men servants and the maid servants it tends c. 3. To eat drink and be drunken tends c. 4. If he doe both that and that and this be shall be damned Out of which last axiome may be observed a Climax or gradation of sin by way of use And as we contracted the consequent to one notion that the Doctrines might be proposed so much the brieflier out of it applyed to the parts of the consequent so may the antecedent also be contracted to one that it may be easilier applyed to the parts of the consequent Hence the fifth axiome If this servant be so desperately wicked his Lord will come upon him in a day when he looketh not for him and in an hour when he is not aware 6. If he be such a one he will out him in sunder 7. He will appoint him his portion with unbelievers 8. The whole axiome out of the parts proposed on both sides Out of this axiome may be observed 1. A Climax or gradation in the consequent or the degrees of punishment threatned to that servant 2. The proportion between the sin in the antecedent and the punishment in the consequent Namely He saith the Lord delayeth his coming the Lord will come in a day when he looketh not for him in an hour when he is not ware Also he beats c. The Lord will cut him in sunder Likewise He gorges and makes himself drunk with an immoderate portion of food and wine The Lord will appoint him his portion of food and wine The Lord will appoint him his portion with unbeleevers Of a negate or denyed Connex 13. The negate connex whether it be denyed by preposing a negation to the whole axiome or by more openly denying the consequence doth no more exhibite a doctrine in parts then an affirmate 14. Because there would be no place for a negate connex in Scripture unlesse the Antecedent did not inferre the consequent affirmate but oftentimes it doth not inferre it because the parts are divers amongst themselves Thence it seemes to be such an affirmate is more clearly denyed as for the affection of the parts by the discrete or severed of quanquam or tamen although or neverthelesse which also expresses the diversity of parts then by the negate Connex which only denies the consequent to be inferred But when it is denyed by an axiome of this or another kind as vertually it may be the axiome so denying must be referred to it own proper classis 15. If the first which hath affinity with the Connex be under a stricter note or if it doth bear a stricter though the negation doth break the bond yet the antecedent under such a note remains as granted The consequent in the mean time whether it be true in it self or false by the negation of the sequel is left in the middle as in a precise connex A more strict note is Cum though or quandoquidem for because Rom. 9.7 Not because they are the seed of Abraham are they all children the causall conjunction shall here bear a strict note not though you be or although you are the Seed of Abraham are ye his sons saith the Apostle to the Jews who would inferre the Consequent out of the Antecedent as if he had said though ye be the Seed of Abraham yet it doth not follow that ye are all sons 16. And if this axiome which this in Scripture doth contradict be so absurd that it layes a falsehood in the antecedent the antecedent which will not bear a stricter note doth constitute a Doctrine 2 Cor. 11. In the antecedent of the Discrete the Apostle disposeth such an axiome Not the question being equivalent to the negation that I doe not love you have I been 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 or not burthensome to you The Apostle seemes to obviate a malevolous mans saying Because Paul doth not love us therefore will he take nothing of us to whom the Apostle opposes this contradictory Not c. Quia because is a more larger conjunction in the negate and may be taken either as granting or indifferently as of he said Whether I love you or not love you the not loving doth not inferre the not being burthensom And truly the conceit of man is so much larger then the portion of words that it can hardly be bound and restrained by words in a sentence but at some time it may escape into a various sense unlesse the scope of the place and context c. be considered Yet the antecedent is asserted under a stricter note But this was not the sense of the Apostle but by the interrogation and question equivalent to the negation and his appeal to God touching his affection as it should seeme and by the subjunction of the true cause in the 12. verse he doth rather insinuate the contrary to this antecedent which he doth likewise abundantly professe in another place 17. The negation here seemes sometimes not only to take away the bond and so the consequence but the consequent also especially the more vehement Rom. 6.15 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 what then c. where 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 as vers 1. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 what then shall we sin 2 Cor. 11.11 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 wherefore c. though elsewhere it be otherwise as Rom. 9.30,32 seems to be a preparation to consute the Prolepsis or inconsequent inference as if he should say You are inclined of things rightly spoken to inferre things which are not right We must not sin not because we are not under the law Omitting the Antecedent which here is set down in the Discrete 1. axiome That we must not sin 2. Not for this cause 3. This ought to be abominated and prayed against so Rom. 6.1 where the antecedent seemes to lay down nothing 1. We ought not to remain in sin 2. No not to this end that grace may abound 3. It is abominable and a thing to be
