better_o but_o then_o here_o also_o they_o deny_v that_o this_o imperfection_n of_o our_o charity_n and_o good_a work_n be_v any_o sin_n last_o they_o grant_v that_o no_o man_n can_v avoid_v venial_a sin_n scarce_o in_o the_o best_a work_n he_o do_v but_o then_o they_o deny_v that_o venial_a sin_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n so_o that_o albeit_o a_o man_n commit_v they_o yet_o he_o may_v perfect_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n i_o can_v stand_v large_o in_o the_o refutation_n of_o these_o foul_a error_n the_o confutation_n whereof_o belong_v proper_o to_o the_o article_n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n where_o the_o nature_n and_o kind_n of_o sin_n be_v to_o be_v handle_v for_o this_o present_a i_o shall_v but_o touch_v on_o they_o brief_o and_o proceed_v to_o the_o matter_n 1_o for_o the_o first_o we_o defend_v this_o conclusion_n the_o vicious_a inclination_n and_o pronnesse_n of_o nature_n unto_o evil_n conclusion_n as_o also_o the_o inordinate_a ●_z of_o concupiscence_n which_o go_v before_o consent_n they_o be_v sin_n even_o in_o a_o man_n regenerate_v that_o the_o inclination_n and_o pronnesse_n of_o nature_n to_o sin_n be_v a_o sin_n we_o prove_v thus_o it_o be_v express_o so_o call_v by_o the_o apostle_n rom._n 7._o not_o once_a nor_o twice_o but_o almost_o in_o every_o verse_n of_o the_o chapter_n i_o be_o carnal_a sell_v under_o sin_n the_o sin_n that_o dwell_v in_o i_o ver_fw-la 17._o 20._o the_o law_n of_o sin_n verse_n 23._o 25._o in_o itself_o it_o be_v sin_n and_o deserve_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n eternal_a death_n for_o which_o cause_n the_o apostle_n there_o call_v it_o the_o body_n of_o this_o death_n verse_n 24._o because_o this_o inward_a corruption_n which_o be_v like_o a_o body_n that_o have_v many_o member_n consist_v of_o diverse_a evil_a affection_n spread_v themselves_o throughout_o his_o whole_a nature_n make_v he_o liable_a to_o eternal_a death_n from_o which_o only_a god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n can_v deliver_v he_o 2_o to_o rebel_n against_o the_o law_n be_v sinne._n ergo_fw-la to_o have_v a_o rebellious_a inclination_n be_v sin_n likewise_o 13._o for_o if_o the_o act_n be_v evil_a the_o habit_n must_v needs_o be_v naught_o if_o the_o law_n forbid_v one_o it_o must_v needs_o forbid_v the_o other_o if_o it_o be_v evil_a to_o break_v any_o commandment_n in_o act_n be_v it_o not_o evil_a to_o have_v a_o proneness_n and_o readiness_n of_o mind_n to_o break_v it_o heart_n the_o habit_n denominate_v a_o man_n sinful_a and_o not_o the_o act_n nor_o do_v god_n less_o abhor_v the_o pronnesse_n of_o man_n to_o offend_v he_o then_o we_o do_v abhor_v the_o ravenous_a disposition_n of_o a_o wolf_n though_o it_o be_v a_o cubb_n not_o yet_o use_v to_o the_o prey_n or_o one_o tie_v up_o in_o a_o

thou_o shall_v not_o covet_v for_o motion_n with_o consent_n be_v forbid_v in_o the_o other_o commandment_n as_o appear_v manifest_o in_o christ_n exposition_n of_o the_o commandment_n mat._n 5._o 22._o be_v not_o only_o the_o outward_a act_n of_o adultery_n but_o the_o inward_a desire_n be_v also_o forbid_a if_o we_o believe_v christ_n the_o best_a interpreter_n of_o the_o law_n when_o ergo_fw-la the_o ten_o commandment_n forbid_v covet_v of_o our_o neighbour_n wife_n it_o either_o mean_v the_o same_o kind_n of_o lust_a with_o a_o needless_a tautology_n or_o a_o different_a viz._n that_o which_o be_v not_o consent_v unto_o nor_o can_v our_o adversary_n shift_n this_o off_o though_o becanus_n most_o impudent_o deny_v it_o 885._o with_o out_o any_o reason_n of_o his_o so_o do_v 2_o we_o prove_v it_o thus_o whatsoever_o be_v inordinate_a and_o repugnant_a to_o right_a reason_n that_o be_v sinne._n but_o these_o motion_n without_o confent_n be_v inordinate_a ergo_fw-la they_o be_v sin_n the_o minor_a be_v confess_v that_o these_o motion_n be_v inordinati_fw-la &_o recta_fw-la rationi_fw-la repugnantes_fw-la the_o mayor_n be_v apparent_a for_o what_o be_v ordo_fw-la &_o recta_fw-la ratio_fw-la in_o moralibus_fw-la but_o that_o course_n of_o do_v any_o thing_n which_o be_v conformable_a to_o god_n law_n and_o his_o will_n god_n be_v the_o god_n of_o order_n law_n his_o law_n be_v the_o rule_n of_o order_n in_o all_o humane_a action_n recta_fw-la ratio_fw-la what_o be_v it_o but_o the_o conformity_n of_o man_n understanding_n and_o will_n unto_o god_n will_n

gross_a absurdity_n to_o deny_v the_o sinnefulnesse_n of_o these_o disorderly_a motion_n see_v no_o man_n can_v break_v those_o order_n which_o god_n have_v make_v and_o yet_o be_v faultless_a nor_o be_v it_o possible_a a_o man_n shall_v do_v that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o god_n will_v and_o yet_o be_v without_o sin_n in_o do_v of_o it_o these_o motion_n then_o without_o consent_n be_v confusion_n in_o nature_n opposite_n to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o unto_o that_o even_a and_o straight_o order_v express_v in_o his_o law_n we_o conclude_v then_o that_o concupiscence_n and_o inordinate_a motion_n of_o the_o soul_n not_o consent_v unto_o be_v sin_n contrary_a to_o our_o adversary_n assertion_n they_o bring_v some_o reason_n to_o prove_v they_o be_v not_o 1_o original_a sin_n be_v take_v away_o in_o baptism_n adu_n but_o concupiscence_n be_v not_o take_v away_o in_o baptism_n as_o appear_v by_o experience_n in_o the_o regenerate_a in_o who_o it_o remain_v ergo_fw-la concupiscence_n and_o pronnesse_n to_o sin_n be_v no_o sin_n this_o argument_n be_v frivolous_a in_o original_a sin_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n first_o the_o guilt_n second_o the_o inherent_a corruption_n we_o say_v in_o baptism_n the_o guilt_n be_v altogether_o wash_v away_o from_o the_o baptise_a elect_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ._n and_o for_o the_o corruption_n thereof_o it_o be_v part_v do_v away_o by_o the_o sanctify_a spirit_n of_o christ_n pour_v out_o upon_o the_o regenerate_v which_o by_o degree_n purge_v out_o the_o inherent_a sinfulness_n of_o nature_n by_o replant_n the_o grace_n of_o sanctification_n in_o all_o part_n concupiscence_n then_o notwithstanding_o baptism_n remain_v in_o the_o regenerate_v and_o be_v a_o sin_n in_o they_o the_o guiltiness_n whereof_o god_n merciful_o pardon_v in_o christ._n 2_o what_o be_v not_o in_o our_o power_n to_o avoid_v adu_n that_o god_n do_v not_o forbid_v we_o by_o his_o law_n but_o it_o be_v not_o in_o our_o power_n to_o avoid_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o heart_n that_o prevent_v reason_n and_o consent_n ergo_fw-la they_o be_v no_o sin_n forbid_a us._n to_o this_o we_o answer_v the_o mayor_n be_v true_a in_o thing_n mere_o natural_a that_o fall_v out_o by_o the_o necessity_n of_o nature_n well_o dispose_v so_o we_o say_v god_n law_n be_v uncouth_a shall_v he_o command_v a_o man_n never_o to_o be_v a_o hungry_a or_o thirst_n which_o thing_n he_o can_v avoid_v but_o they_o come_v upon_o he_o will_v he_o will_z he_o by_o the_o mere_a necessity_n of_o nature_n but_o concern_v inordinate_a motion_n there_o be_v no_o such_o matter_n god_n have_v lay_v no_o such_o necessity_n on_o nature_n in_o her_o creation_n but_o we_o by_o our_o sin_n have_v bring_v it_o upon_o ourselves_o now_o such_o a_o necessity_n excuse_v we_o not_o in_o this_o case_n it_o help_v a_o man_n no_o more_o to_o say_v i_o can_v avoid_v evil_a thought_n and_o desire_n then_o it_o do_v a_o desperate_a sinner_n that_o by_o countenance_n have_v harden_v himself_o in_o evil_a course_n or_o than_o it_o help_v the_o devil_n and_o the_o damn_a if_o they_o shall_v say_v we_o can_v choose_v but_o do_v evil_a 3_o they_o argue_v thus_o that_o which_o will_v have_v be_v natural_a and_o without_o fault_n in_o man_n adu_n if_o he_o have_v be_v create_v in_o puris_fw-la naturalibus_fw-la that_o be_v no_o sin_n
