A86586	An exercitation concerning the nature of forgivenesse of sin. Very necessary (as the author humbly conceiveth) to a right informaion [sic], and well grounded decision of sundry controversal points in divinity now depending. Directly intended as an antidote for preventing the danger of antinomian doctrine. And consequently subservient for promoting the true faith of Christ and fear of God, in a godly righteous, and sober life. / By Thomas Hotchkis, Master of Arts of C.C.C.C. and minister of Gods word at Stanton by Highworth in the county of Wilts. To which is prefixed Mr. Richard Baxters preface.	Hotchkis, Thomas.; Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1654 (1654)	Wing H2891; Thomason E1518_1; Thomason E1632_1; ESTC R208563	133,342	405

for_o the_o weakness_n thereof_o i_o may_v well_o style_v it_o a_o woman_n objection_n and_o i_o shall_v the_o rather_o so_o style_v it_o because_o it_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n the_o objection_n which_o a_o certain_a woman_n in_o these_o part_n much_o pervert_v as_o it_o seem_v by_o antinomian_a principle_n and_o frequent_v as_o i_o have_v hear_v the_o teach_n of_o such_o teacher_n as_o be_v

i_o make_v unto_o her_o objection_n as_o now_o follow_v 1._o i_o tell_v she_o that_o she_o may_v by_o a_o like_a reason_n infer_v that_o christ_n jesus_n be_v not_o a_o perfect_a red_a emer_n see_v the_o saint_n be_v not_o in_o this_o life_n perfect_o redeem_v from_o their_o sin_n but_o must_v wait_v for_o the_o accomplishment_n thereof_o till_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n which_o for_o that_o

reason_n upon_o this_o account_n to_o make_v the_o same_o objection_n against_o she_o viz_o that_o then_o christ_n be_v not_o a_o perfect_a satisfier_n 3_o final_o i_o tell_v she_o that_o she_o be_v

in_o a_o true_a sense_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n it_o be_v once_o in_o my_o mind_n to_o have_v interpret_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o proposition_n of_o his_o p._n 21._o when_o a_o sin_n be_v
