the_o evil_n of_o death_n descend_v upon_o adam_n posterity_n for_o his_o sake_n go_v no_o further_a than_o till_o moses_n for_o after_o the_o give_v of_o moses_n law_n death_n pass_v no_o further_o

from_o he_o it_o pass_v upon_o all_o the_o world_n though_o by_o several_a dispensation_n 2._o in_o the_o discourse_n of_o the_o apostle_n those_o that_o be_v name_v be_v not_o consider_v simple_o as_o bear_v from_o adam_n and_o therefore_o it_o do_v not_o come_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o natural_a or_o original_a corruption_n but_o they_o be_v consider_v as_o sinner_n just_a as_o they_o

than_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n before_o to_o this_o it_o be_v answer_v as_o you_o see_v there_o be_v a_o double_a guilt_n a_o guilt_n of_o person_n and_o of_o nature_n that_o be_v take_v away_o this_o be_v not_o for_o sacrament_n be_v give_v to_o person_n not_o to_o nature_n but_o first_o where_o be_v there_o such_o a_o distinction_n set_v down_o in_o scripture_n or_o in_o the_o prime_a antiquity_n or_o in_o any_o moral_a philosopher_n there_o be_v no_o humane_a nature_n but_o what_o be_v in_o the_o person_n of_o man_n and_o though_o our_o understanding_n can_v make_v a_o separate_a consideration_n of_o these_o or_o rather_o consider_v a_o person_n in_o a_o double_a capacity_n in_o his_o personal_a and_o in_o his_o natural_a that_o be_v if_o i_o be_o to_o speak_v sense_n a_o person_n may_v be_v consider_v in_o that_o which_o be_v proper_a to_o he_o and_o in_o that_o which_o be_v common_a to_o he_o and_o other_o yet_o these_o two_o consideration_n can_v make_v two_o

either_o then_o the_o sacrament_n must_v have_v effect_n upon_o our_o nature_n to_o purify_v that_o which_o be_v vitiate_a by_o concupiscence_n or_o else_o it_o do_v no_o good_a at_o all_o for_o if_o the_o guilt_n or_o sin_n be_v found_v in_o the_o nature_n as_o the_o article_n affirm_v and_o baptism_n do_v not_o take_v off_o the_o guilt_n from_o the_o nature_n than_o it_o do_v nothing_o now_o since_o your_o lordship_n be_v please_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o objector_n so_o wary_o to_o avoid_v what_o they_o think_v press_v i_o will_v take_v leave_n to_o use_v the_o advantage_n it_o

take_v off_o the_o guilt_n of_o original_a sin_n
or_o else_o there_o may_v be_v punishment_n where_o there_o be_v no_o guilt_n or_o else_o natural_a death_n be_v not_o it_o which_o god_n threaten_v as_o the_o punishment_n of_o adam_n fact_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o man_n die_v as_o well_o after_o baptism_n as_o before_o and_o more_o after_o than_o before_o that_o which_o will_v be_v proper_o the_o consequent_a of_o this_o

probable_a as_o not_o be_v willing_a to_o admit_v what_o the_o socinian_o answer_n in_o this_o argument_n who_o affirm_v that_o god_n threaten_v death_n to_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n mean_v death_n eternal_a which_o be_v certain_o not_o true_a as_o we_o learn_v from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o adam_n we_o all_o die_v which_o be_v not_o true_a of_o death_n eternal_a but_o it_o

to_o have_v entertain_v those_o miriads_o of_o man_n which_o must_v in_o all_o reason_n have_v be_v bear_v from_o that_o blessing_n of_o increase_n and_o multiply_v which_o be_v give_v at_o the_o

that_o when_o the_o apostle_n say_v death_n come_v in_o by_o sin_n and_o that_o death_n be_v the_o rage_n of_o sin_n he_o primary_o and_o literal_o mean_v the_o solemnity_n and_o cause_n and_o

be_v not_o original_a sin_n i_o do_v not_o know_v well_o what_o to_o answer_v i_o can_v possible_o say_v something_o to_o satisfy_v the_o boy_n and_o young_a man_n at_o a_o public_a disputation_n

concupiscence_n must_v be_v mean_v either_o the_o first_o inclination_n to_o their_o object_n or_o the_o proper_a act_n of_o election_n which_o be_v the_o second_o act_n of_o concupiscence_n if_o the_o first_o inclination_n be_v mean_v then_o certain_o that_o can_v be_v a_o sin_n which_o be_v natural_a and_o which_o be_v necessary_a for_o i_o consider_v that_o concupiscence_n and_o natural_a
