answ_n god_n love_n be_v not_o oppose_v to_o his_o displeasure_n but_o to_o hatred_n yea_o the_o more_o love_v the_o more_o displeasure_n when_o we_o sin_n against_o love_n this_o in_o parent_n be_v the_o fruit_n of_o paternal_a affection_n 3_o it_o be_v most_o peremptory_o to_o be_v affirm_v that_o god_n hate_v sin_n in_o whosoever_o this_o be_v true_a but_o we_o speak_v of_o displeasure_n not_o of_o hatred_n 4_o so_o far_o as_o the_o child_n of_o god_n live_v off_o from_o christ_n and_o walk_v unworthy_a of_o the_o gospel_n so_o far_o they_o lie_v under_o the_o sense_n of_o wrath_n

be_v no_o peace_n in_o the_o way_n of_o sin_n god_n must_v needs_o be_v displease_v with_o his_o people_n for_o sin_n 5_o the_o five_o paragraph_n be_v answer_v in_o the_o former_a 6_o the_o sixth_o
