for_o if_o the_o number_n of_o the_o damn_a do_v exceed_v so_o much_o the_o number_n of_o those_o which_o be_v save_v it_o seem_v that_o the_o work_n of_o justice_n do_v pass_v the_o work_n of_o

for_o that_o beside_o all_o other_o prophet_n christ_n our_o saviour_n have_v make_v the_o matter_n certain_a and_o out_o of_o question_n we_o have_v to_o see_v therefore_o 7.20_o how_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n do_v exceed_v his_o other_o work_n 17_o and_o first_o his_o mercy_n may_v be_v say_v to_o exceed_v for_o that_o all_o our_o salvation_n be_v of_o his_o mercy_n and_o our_o damnation_n from_o ourselves_o as_o from_o the_o first_o and_o principal_a cause_n thereof_o according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o god_n 13._o by_o the_o prophet_n perditio_fw-la tua_fw-la israel_n tantum_fw-la modo_fw-la in_o i_o auxilium_fw-la tuum_fw-la thy_o only_a perdition_n be_v from_o thyself_o o_o israel_n and_o thy_o assistance_n to_o do_v good_a be_v only_o from_o i_o so_o that_o as_o we_o must_v acknowledge_v god_n grace_n &_o mercy_n for_o the_o author_n of_o every_o good_a thought_n and_o act_n that_o we_o do_v and_o consequent_o ascribe_v all_o our_o salvation_n unto_o he_o so_o none_o of_o our_o evil_a act_n for_o which_o we_o be_v damn_v do_v proceed_v from_o he_o but_o only_o from_o ourselves_o and_o so_o he_o be_v no_o cause_n at_o all_o of_o our_o damnation_n and_o in_o this_o do_v his_o mercy_n exceed_v his_o justice_n 2_o 18_o second_o his_o mercy_n do_v exceed_v in_o that_o he_o desire_v all_o man_n to_o be_v save_v 2._o as_o saint_n paul_n teach_v and_o himself_o protest_v when_o he_o say_v 18._o i_o will_v not_o the_o death_n of_o a_o sinner_n but_o rather_o that_o he_o turn_v from_o his_o wickedness_n and_o live_v and_o again_o by_o the_o prophet_n jeremie_n he_o complain_v greevous_o that_o man_n will_v not_o accept_v of_o his_o mercy_n offer_v 3_o turn_v from_o your_o wicked_a way_n say_v he_o why_o will_v you_o die_v you_o house_n of_o israel_n by_o which_o appear_v that_o he_o offer_v his_o mercy_n most_o willing_o &_o free_o to_o all_o but_o use_v his_o justice_n only_o upon_o necessity_n as_o it_o be_v constrain_v thereunto_o by_o our_o obstinate_a behaviour_n this_o christ_n signify_v more_o plain_o when_o he_o say_v to_o jerusalem_n o_o jerusalem_n jerusalem_n 25._o which_o kill_v the_o

upon_o they_o which_o he_o fulfil_v within_o forty_o or_o fifty_o year_n after_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o vespasian_n emperor_n of_o rome_n 3._o and_o titus_n his_o son_n who_o utter_o discomfit_v the_o city_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o whole_a nation_n of_o jew_n who_o we_o see_v disperse_v over_o the_o world_n at_o this_o day_n in_o bondage_n both_o of_o body_n and_o soul._n which_o work_n of_o god_n justice_n though_o it_o be_v most_o terrible_a yet_o be_v his_o mercy_n great_a to_o they_o as_o appear_v by_o christ_n word_n if_o they_o have_v not_o reject_v the_o son_n 19_o three_o his_o mercy_n exceed_v his_o like_a justice_n even_o towards_o the_o damn_a themselves_o in_o that_o he_o use_v many_o mean_n to_o save_v they_o in_o this_o life_n by_o call_v upon_o they_o and_o assist_v they_o with_o his_o grace_n to_o do_v good_a by_o move_a they_o inward_o with_o infinite_a good_a inspiration_n by_o allure_a they_o outward_o with_o exhortation_n promise_n example_n of_o other_o as_o

and_o torment_n that_o his_o judgement_n be_v true_a and_o justify_v in_o themselves_o and_o no_o way_n to_o be_v compare_v with_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o mercy_n 20_o by_o this_o than_o we_o see_v that_o to_o be_v true_a which_o the_o prophet_n say_v 83._o misericordiam_fw-la &_o veritatem_fw-la diligit_fw-la dominus_fw-la god_n love_v mercy_n and_o truth_n and_o again_o 84._o mercy_n and_o truth_n have_v meet_v together_o justice_n and_o peace_n have_v kiss_v themselves_o we_o see_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o same_o prophet_n protest_v of_o himself_o 100_o i_o will_v sing_v unto_o
