of_o it_o neither_o be_v we_o to_o humble_v ourselves_o because_o of_o it_o second_o other_o there_o be_v that_o though_o they_o hold_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sin_n yet_o they_o say_v it_o be_v absolute_o forgive_v in_o baptism_n and_o if_o it_o be_v then_o total_o forgive_v what_o necessity_n be_v thereof_o confession_n and_o acknowledge_v it_o afterward_o that_o original_a sin_n be_v forgive_v to_o all_o that_o be_v baptize_v be_v the_o opinion_n of_o austin_n who_o yet_o do_v more_o earnest_o propugn_v this_o doctrine_n of_o original_a sin_n than_o any_o of_o the_o father_n yea_o in_o his_o time_n these_o two_o seem_v to_o be_v catholic_n doctrine_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n viz._n a_o universal_a efficacy_n of_o baptism_n in_o all_o infant_n baptize_v to_o purge_v away_o original_a sin_n as_o also_o the_o necessity_n of_o damnation_n of_o those_o infant_n which_o die_v without_o it_o the_o papist_n also_o they_o general_o conclude_v that_o this_o original_a sin_n be_v forgive_v to_o all_o baptize_v person_n and_o socinus_n in_o his_o exposition_n of_o this_o place_n approve_v this_o position_n that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v confess_v yea_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o some_o learned_a protestant_n adversary_n both_o to_o papist_n and_o arminian_n as_o davenant_n ward_n have_v affirm_v also_o that_o all_o baptize_v person_n have_v their_o original_a sin_n forgive_v they_o and_o so_o die_v in_o their_o infancy_n must_v without_o doubt_n be_v save_v three_o there_o be_v other_o and_o such_o be_v the_o remonstrant_n who_o affirm_v that_o upon_o adam_n fall_n god_n enter_v into_o a_o new_a covenant_n of_o grace_n with_o fall_v mankind_n by_o christ_n our_o mediator_n therefore_o it_o be_v they_o say_v that_o none_o be_v damn_v for_o original_a sin_n no_o not_o heathen_n or_o their_o child_n but_o that_o by_o the_o second_o adam_n viz._n christ_n there_o be_v take_v off_o all_o that_o guilt_n which_o come_v by_o adam_n transgression_n so_o that_o in_o this_o respect_n they_o make_v the_o child_n of_o heathen_n and_o believer_n all_o alike_o so_o that_o by_o these_o man_n position_n though_o go_v upon_o several_a ground_n we_o see_v it_o affirm_v that_o original_a sin_n be_v pardon_v and_o that_o before_o there_o be_v any_o confession_n humiliation_n and_o sorrow_n for_o it_o whether_o indeed_o though_o it_o be_v pardon_v some_o of_o the_o forementioned_a author_n will_v not_o hold_v it_o necessary_a to_o confess_v it_o and_o to_o beg_v for_o the_o pardon_n of_o it_o may_v well_o be_v doubt_v i_o say_v some_o of_o they_o for_o

unto_o thou_o only_o you_o must_v know_v that_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o sorrow_n and_o repentance_n about_o this_o sin_n we_o may_v take_v repentance_n large_o or_o strict_o for_o any_o kind_n of_o holy_a sorrow_n and_o humiliaton_n of_o soul_n and_o that_o because_o god_n be_v displease_v with_o we_o because_o we_o have_v that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o holy_a law_n and_o so_o be_v offensive_a to_o he_o and_o damnable_a to_o we_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n we_o be_v in_o a_o deep_a measure_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o for_o original_a sin_n as_o be_v a_o most_o grievous_a and_o heinous_a sin_n the_o guilt_n whereof_o will_v press_v we_o into_o the_o low_a hell_n do_v not_o god_n grace_n interpose_v or_o else_o it_o may_v be_v strict_o take_v for_o a_o change_n of_o our_o mind_n or_o a_o alteration_n of_o that_o purpose_n and_o will_v we_o once_o have_v now_o in_o this_o strict_a sense_n though_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n with_o sorrow_n to_o be_v humble_v for_o original_a sin_n yet_o we_o can_v be_v proper_o say_v to_o repent_v of_o it_o because_o it_o be_v not_o a_o sin_n ever_o commit_v by_o we_o personal_o or_o through_o our_o own_o actual_a will_n so_o that_o although_o we_o may_v not_o so_o proper_o it_o may_v be_v exhort_v man_n to_o repent_v of_o this_o original_a sin_n yet_o we_o must_v press_v they_o to_o a_o deep_a and_o daily_a humiliation_n under_o it_o and_o that_o not_o as_o a_o punishment_n or_o a_o affliction_n only_o but_o as_o a_o true_a and_o proper_a sin_n so_o that_o as_o without_o confession_n and_o sorrow_n no_o actual_a sin_n will_v be_v forgive_v unto_o a_o man_n so_o neither_o will_n original_a sin_n and_o therefore_o we_o do_v by_o consequence_n in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n when_o we_o say_v forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n pray_v not_o only_o for_o the_o pardon_n of_o actual_a sin_n but_o original_a also_o whatsoever_o the_o remonstrant_n say_v neither_o be_v their_o argument_n against_o it_o of_o any_o worth_n when_o

against_o the_o first_o table_n add_v as_o we_o forgive_v other_o the_o meaning_n shall_v be_v as_o we_o forgive_v they_o their_o idolatry_n or_o sin_n against_o the_o first_o table_n which_o will_v
