if_o there_o be_v no_o relaxation_n of_o the_o severity_n of_o it_o 2._o that_o it_o be_v very_o agreeable_a to_o the_o divine_a justice_n to_o exercise_v the_o severity_n of_o punitive_a justice_n on_o obstinate_a and_o incorrigible_a offender_n and_o this_o be_v that_o whereon_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o punishment_n of_o sinner_n in_o another_o world_n be_v found_v because_o god_n have_v

die_v to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o the_o second_o be_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o satisfaction_n assert_v by_o we_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o the_o freeness_n of_o god_n grace_n in_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n both_o which_o will_v admit_v of_o a_o easy_a solution_n upon_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o forego_n discourse_n to_o the_o first_o i_o answer_v that_o we_o assert_v nothing_o inconsistent_a with_o that_o love_n of_o god_n which_o be_v discover_v in_o send_v his_o son_n into_o the_o world_n we_o do_v not_o say_v that_o god_n hate_v mankind_n so_o muâ—h_o on_o the_o account_n of_o sin_n that_o it_o be_v impossible_a he_o shall_v ever_o admit_v of_o any_o term_n of_o reconciliation_n with_o they_o which_o be_v the_o only_a thing_n inconsistent_a with_o the_o greatness_n of_o god_n love_n in_o send_v christ_n into_o the_o world_n but_o we_o adore_v and_o magnify_v the_o infiniteness_n and_o unexpressible_a greatness_n of_o his_o love_n that_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o contempt_n of_o the_o former_a kindness_n and_o mercy_n of_o heaven_n he_o shall_v be_v please_v to_o send_v his_o own_o son_n to_o die_v for_o sinner_n that_o they_o may_v be_v reconcile_v to_o he_o and_o herein_o be_v the_o great_a love_n of_o god_n manifest_v that_o while_o we_o be_v enemy_n and_o sinner_n christ_n die_v for_o we_o and_o that_o for_o this_o end_n that_o we_o may_v be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o his_o death_n and_o therefore_o sure_o not_o in_o the_o state_n of_o favour_n or_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n then_o but_o it_o be_v worth_a the_o while_n to_o understand_v what_o it_o be_v our_o adversary_n mean_v when_o they_o say_v god_n be_v reconcile_v when_o he_o send_v his_o son_n and_o therefore_o he_o can_v not_o die_v to_o reconcile_v god_n to_o we_o either_o they_o mean_v that_o god_n have_v decree_v to_o be_v reconcile_v upon_o the_o send_v his_o son_n or_o that_o he_o be_v actual_o reconcile_v when_o he_o send_v he_o if_o he_o only_o decree_v to_o be_v reconcile_v that_o be_v not_o at_o all_o inconsistent_a with_o christ_n die_v to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o we_o in_o pursuance_n of_o that_o decree_n if_o they_o mean_v he_o be_v actual_o reconcile_v then_o there_o be_v no_o need_n for_o christ_n to_o die_v to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o we_o but_o withal_o actual_a reconciliation_n imply_v pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o if_o sin_n be_v actual_o pardon_v before_o christ_n come_v there_o can_v be_v no_o need_n of_o his_o come_n at_o all_o and_o sin_n will_v have_v be_v pardon_v before_o commit_v if_o they_o be_v not_o pardon_v notwithstanding_o that_o love_n of_o god_n than_o it_o can_v imply_v no_o more_o but_o that_o god_n be_v willing_a to_o be_v reconcile_v if_o therefore_o the_o not-remission_n of_o sin_n be_v consistent_a with_o that_o love_n of_o god_n by_o which_o he_o send_v christ_n into_o the_o world_n then_o notwithstanding_o that_o he_o be_v yet_o capable_a of_o be_v reconcile_v by_o his_o death_n so_o that_o our_o adversary_n be_v bind_v to_o reconcile_v that_o love_n of_o god_n with_o not_o present_o pardon_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n as_o we_o be_v to_o reconcile_v it_o with_o the_o end_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v assert_v by_o we_o fourteen_o to_o the_o other_o obejction_n satisfaction_n concern_v the_o inconsistency_n of_o the_o freeness_n of_o
