also_o as_o true_a that_o the_o elect_n be_v bless_v with_o more_o grace_n it_o be_v the_o privilege_n only_o of_o those_o that_o be_v choose_v to_o be_v bless_v with_o alice_n spiritual_a blessing_n

when_o i_o say_v principal_a i_o mean_v chief_a for_o though_o the_o reprobate_n be_v to_o have_v the_o great_a hand_n in_o the_o management_n of_o what_o mercy_n and_o goodness_n the_o lord_n bestow_v on_o he_o yet_o not_o so_o as_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o help_v he_o at_o all_o nay_o contrariwise_o he_o will_v if_o first_o the_o reprobate_n do_v true_o the_o duty_n that_o lie_v on_o he_o if_o thou_o do_v well_o shall_v thou_o not_o be_v accept_v but_o if_o not_o well_o behold_v sin_n lie_v at_o the_o door_n thus_o it_o be_v also_o with_o saul_n who_o be_v reject_v of_o god_n

yet_o he_o be_v engage_v as_o the_o principal_a will_v perform_v that_o which_o concern_v they_o even_o until_o the_o day_n the_o come_v of_o jesus_n christ._n gen._n 4.7_o 1_o sam._n 13.11_o 12_o

those_o not_o elect_a always_o under_o eternal_a justice_n for_o you_o must_v consider_v this_o there_o be_v eternal_a mercy_n and_o eternal_a justice_n and_o there_o be_v present_a mercy_n and_o present_a justice_n so_o then_o for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o mercy_n it_o may_v be_v either_o a_o state_n of_o mercy_n present_a or_o both_o present_a and_o eternal_a also_o and_o so_o again_o for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v in_o a_o state_n under_o justice_n it_o may_v be_v understand_v either_o of_o present_a justice_n only_o or_o of_o both_o present_a and_o eternal_a also_o that_o this_o may_v yet_o further_o be_v open_v i_o shall_v somewhat_o enlarge_v i_o begin_v with_o present_a mercy_n and_o present_a justice_n that_o which_o i_o call_v present_a mercy_n be_v that_o faith_n light_n knowledge_n and_o taste_v of_o the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n that_o a_o man_n may_v have_v and_o perish_v this_o be_v call_v in_o scripture_n believe_v for_o a_o while_n during_o for_o a_o while_n and_o rejoice_v in_o the_o light_n for_o a_o season_n now_o i_o call_v this_o mercy_n both_o because_o none_o as_o man_n can_v deserve_v it_o and_o also_o because_o the_o proper_a end_n thereof_o be_v to_o do_v good_a to_o those_o that_o have_v it_o but_o i_o call_v it_o present_a mercy_n because_o those_o that_o be_v only_o bless_v with_o that_o may_v sin_v it_o away_o and_o perish_v as_o do_v some_o of_o the_o galatian_n hebrew_n alexandrian_n with_o the_o asian_o and_o other_o but_o yet_o observe_v again_o i_o do_v not_o call_v this_o present_a mercy_n because_o god_n have_v determine_v it_o shall_v last_v but_o a_o while_n absolute_o but_o because_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o man_n to_o lose_v it_o yea_o determine_v he_o shall_v conditional_o heb._n 6.4_o 5._o 2_o

present_a justice_n it_o be_v that_o which_o last_v but_o a_o while_n also_o and_o as_o present_a mercy_n be_v proper_o the_o portion_n of_o those_o leave_v out_o of_o god_n election_n so_o present_a justice_n chief_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n belove_v who_o yet_o at_o that_o time_n be_v also_o under_o eternal_a mercy_n this_o be_v that_o justice_n that_o afflict_a job_n david_n heman_n and_o the_o godly_a who_o notwithstanding_o do_v infallible_o attain_v by_o virtue_n of_o this_o mercy_n eternal_a life_n and_o glory_n i_o call_v this_o justice_n because_o in_o some_o sense_n god_n deal_v with_o his_o child_n according_a to_o the_o quality_n of_o their_o transgression_n and_o i_o call_v it_o also_o present_a justice_n because_o though_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n for_o the_o present_n be_v never_o so_o heavy_a on_o those_o that_o be_v he_o by_o election_n yet_o it_o last_v but_o a_o while_n wherefore_o though_o this_o indeed_o be_v call_v wrath_n yet_o be_v but_o a_o little_a wrath_n wrath_n for_o a_o moment_n time_n or_o season_n in_o a_o little_a wrath_n i_o hide_v my_o face_n from_o thou_o for_o a_o moment_n but_o with_o everlasting_a kindness_n will_v i_o have_v

you_o see_v there_o be_v present_a mercy_n and_o present_a justice_n also_o that_o the_o elect_n may_v be_v under_o present_a justice_n when_o the_o rest_n may_v be_v under_o present_a mercy_n again_o as_o there_o be_v present_a mercy_n and_o present_a justice_n so_o there_o be_v eternal_a mercy_n and_o eternal_a justice_n and_o i_o say_v as_o the_o elect_n may_v be_v under_o present_a justice_n when_o the_o non-elect_a may_v be_v under_o present_a mercy_n so_o the_o elect_a at_o that_o time_n be_v also_o under_o eternal_a mercy_n but_o the_o other_o under_o eternal_a justice_n that_o the_o elect_n be_v under_o eternal_a mercy_n and_o that_o when_o under_o present_a justice_n be_v evident_a from_o what_o have_v be_v say_v before_o namely_o from_o their_o be_v choose_v in_o christ_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n as_o also_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o their_o sound_a conversion_n and_o safe_a preservation_n quite_o through_o this_o wicked_a world_n even_o safe_a unto_o eternal_a life_n as_o he_o also_o say_v by_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n yea_o i_o have_v love_v thou_o with_o a_o everlasting_a love_n therefore_o with_o love_a kindness_n have_v i_o dra●n_v thou_o and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o he_o call_v the_o elect_a his_o sheep_n his_o child_n and_o people_n and_o that_o before_o conversion_n for_o though_o none_o of_o they_o as_o yet_o be_v

justice_n can_v it_o be_v from_o everlasting_a to_o everlasting_a this_o be_v so_o here_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o no_o sin_n nor_o yet_o temptation_n of_o the_o enemy_n with_o any_o other_o evil_a
