which_o description_n mark_v that_o first_o i_o call_v it_o a_o change_n of_o a_o man_n to_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o it_o and_o civil_a conversation_n which_o be_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n likewise_o as_o this_o be_v but_o far_o different_a from_o it_o because_o this_o only_o restrain_v the_o corruption_n of_o the_o heart_n whereas_o sanctification_n renew_v the_o heart_n and_o thus_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n first_o restrain_v which_o do_v keep_v in_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o heart_n such_o as_o be_v all_o civil_a virtue_n second_o renew_v or_o alter_v the_o mind_n which_o not_o only_o repress_v but_o abolish_v corruption_n of_o this_o kind_n be_v sanctification_n second_o i_o call_v it_o a_o inward_a change_n namely_o in_o the_o mind_n will_n affection_n as_o work_v upon_o the_o inward_a corruption_n and_o lust_n of_o the_o heart_n to_o distinguish_v it_o from_o outward_a sanctification_n which_o a_o wicked_a man_n may_v have_v whereby_o he_o reform_v his_o outward_a man_n and_o carriage_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n such_o be_v they_o who_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o heb._n 10.27_o which_o tread_v under_o their_o foot_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n whereby_o they_o be_v sanctify_v namely_o external_o this_o be_v of_o another_o kind_n work_v the_o inward_a change_n of_o the_o heart_n three_o i_o add_v of_o a_o man_n justify_v for_o two_o cause_n first_o to_o show_v that_o justification_n and_o sanctification_n be_v two_o diverse_a gift_n of_o god_n and_o their_o difference_n may_v appear_v in_o three_o thing_n first_o in_o that_o justification_n be_v out_o of_o a_o man_n sanctification_n be_v within_o he_o second_o justification_n absolve_v a_o sinner_n and_o make_v he_o stand_v righteous_a at_o the_o bar_n of_o god_n judgement_n sanctification_n can_v do_v this_o three_o justification_n bring_v peace_n of_o conscience_n so_o do_v not_o sanctification_n but_o follow_v that_o peace_n thus_o the_o apostle_n have_v they_o distinct_a 1._o cor._n 6.11_o you_o be_v wash_v you_o be_v justify_v and_o sanctify_v as_o also_o 1._o cor._n 1.30_o christ_n be_v make_v to_o we_o righteousness_n and_o sanctification_n second_o because_o justification_n go_v with_o sanctification_n though_o justification_n be_v before_o in_o nature_n yet_o they_o be_v wrought_v at_o the_o same_o time_n for_o when_o god_n accept_v a_o man_n person_n then_o be_v he_o make_v just_a who_o be_v also_o sanctify_a four_o i_o say_v the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v hereby_o restore_v the_o which_o that_o we_o may_v know_v wherein_o it_o consist_v consider_v the_o threefold_n estate_n of_o man_n the_o first_o of_o innocence_n the_o second_o after_o the_o fall_n and_o the_o three_o under_o christ._n first_o in_o

soul_n second_o faculty_n as_o before_o but_o the_o three_o be_v want_v stand_v in_o righteousness_n and_o holiness_n and_o in_o stead_n of_o it_o be_v find_v in_o every_o man_n original_a sin_n which_o distemper_v and_o disorder_v the_o whole_a man_n his_o mind_n will_n and_o affection_n and_o carry_v he_o against_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o the_o three_o condition_n under_o christ_n we_o have_v three_o thing_n first_o substance_n of_o body_n and_o soul_n second_o faculty_n of_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n three_o a_o new_a create_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n before_o lose_v but_o now_o restore_v by_o grace_n above_o nature_n and_o this_o be_v a_o renew_a conformity_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o the_o image_n of_o god_n again_o restore_v where_o note_v that_o sanctification_n be_v such_o a_o gift_n of_o god_n as_o change_v the_o man_n not_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o body_n or_o the_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n but_o the_o corruption_n not_o disorder_n and_o sinfulness_n of_o man_n it_o rectify_v but_o abolish_v not_o affection_n if_o a_o man_n be_v of_o sad_a disposition_n it_o neither_o increase_v nor_o take_v away_o but_o moderate_v his_o

choler_n and_o other_o complexion_n then_o those_o that_o fear_v to_o labour_v in_o their_o sanctification_n because_o than_o they_o must_v be_v solitary_a sad_a and_o can_v be_v merry_a and_o those_o that_o thus_o object_n against_o those_o who_o endeavour_n over_o their_o own_o reformation_n may_v see_v themselves_o deceive_v see_v it_o only_o temper_v the_o affection_n to_o such_o moderation_n as_o become_v holiness_n the_o second_o point_n be_v question_n whence_o have_v we_o our_o sanctification_n whether_o from_o our_o parent_n or_o from_o what_o original_a no_o it_o can_v flow_v from_o the_o parent_n answer_n no_o although_o they_o be_v holy_a one_o job._n 1.13_o the_o new_a birth_n be_v not_o of_o blood_n nor_o the_o will_n of_o flesh_n nor_o of_o man_n for_o parent_n must_v be_v

notwithstanding_o their_o sanctification_n they_o convey_v the_o nature_n and_o sin_n of_o adam_n which_o come_v thus_o to_o pass_v answer_n god_n in_o the_o beginning_n give_v this_o law_n that_o

it_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n hereof_o but_o only_o the_o order_n set_v in_o nature_n by_o god_n at_o the_o first_o so_o parent_n let_v they_o be_v never_o so_o holy_a by_o virtue_n of_o the_o
