of_o christ_n passion_n not_o of_o his_o passion_n in_o himself_o but_o in_o the_o church_n his_o mystical_a body_n for_o as_o he_o suffer_v once_o for_o all_o in_o himself_o for_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o world_n so_o do_v he_o still_o suffer_v daily_o in_o his_o member_n for_o he_o have_v appoint_v his_o elect_a to_o suffer_v much_o tribulation_n before_o they_o shall_v possess_v eternal_a

which_o we_o can_v avoid_v the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o god_n be_v not_o unjust_a though_o he_o punish_v we_o for_o that_o which_o we_o can_v avoid_v for_o infant_n can_v avoid_v original_a

we_o can_v do_v no_o good_a but_o sin_n and_o because_o the_o necessity_n of_o sin_v câ—me_n by_o ourselves_o who_o all_o sin_v voluntary_o in_o our_o first_o parent_n adam_n we_o be_v just_o punish_v

he_o lose_v it_o by_o disobedience_n all_o his_o posterity_n shall_v loose_v it_o with_o he_o and_o be_v just_o punish_v for_o the_o same_o the_o reply_n if_o this_o be_v so_o our_o will_n may_v rather_o be_v call_v bond-will_a then_o freewill_a because_o all_o the_o freedom_n we_o have_v be_v to_o go_v to_o the_o devil_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o our_o will_n before_o our_o
