in_o the_o species_n my_o purpose_n be_v to_o consider_v the_o several_a branch_n of_o active_a scandalize_a that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o discern_v the_o sin_n and_o danger_n of_o scandalize_a active_a scandalize_a be_v two_o way_n one_o when_o a_o man_n in_o his_o action_n intend_v only_o to_o have_v his_o own_o will_n or_o lust_n regard_v not_o the_o ruin_n of_o another_o by_o his_o action_n &_o this_o may_v be_v call_v exemplary_a scandalize_a or_o scandal_n by_o example_n and_o of_o this_o kind_n of_o scandal_n there_o be_v two_o sort_n the_o first_o be_v when_o the_o example_n be_v in_o a_o thing_n in_o its_o nature_n evil_a and_o this_o may_v not_o unfit_o be_v call_v scandal_n by_o sinful_a example_n the_o second_o be_v when_o the_o scandal_n be_v in_o a_o thing_n lawful_a otherwise_o as_o be_v in_o its_o nature_n indifferent_a but_o by_o want_n of_o charity_n abuse_v so_o as_o that_o harm_n come_v to_o another_o and_o this_o may_v be_v call_v scandalize_a in_o the_o abuse_n of_o thing_n indifferent_a the_o other_o way_n of_o scandalize_a be_v when_o a_o action_n be_v do_v for_o this_o particular_a intent_n that_o other_o man_n soul_n may_v be_v harm_v chief_o in_o draw_v they_o to_o sin_n and_o this_o may_v be_v call_v scandalize_a by_o devise_v practice_n which_o likewise_o be_v of_o two_o sort_n one_o when_o by_o intice_v mean_n as_o by_o counsel_n persuasion_n place_v object_n before_o man_n and_o the_o like_a man_n be_v overthrow_v and_o this_o may_v be_v call_v scandal_n by_o entice_a practice_n the_o other_o when_o by_o terrify_v way_n man_n be_v scandalize_v and_o this_o may_v be_v call_v scandal_n by_o persecution_n according_a to_o this_o distribution_n in_o this_o method_n i_o shall_v speak_v 1._o of_o scandalize_a by_o

sinful_a example_n beget_v scandal_n need_v not_o proof_n example_n experience_n of_o all_o time_n prove_v it_o too_o abundant_o and_o that_o position_n of_o solomon_n be_v plain_a prov._n 29._o 6._o in_o the_o transgression_n of_o a_o evil_a man_n there_o be_v a_o snare_n or_o scandal_n for_o these_o two_o word_n be_v equivalent_a as_o be_v declare_v before_o a_o snare_n whereby_o to_o ensnare_v himself_o and_o to_o harm_v other_o whereupon_o it_o be_v that_o solomon_n advise_v prov._n 22._o 25._o that_o we_o shall_v make_v no_o friendship_n with_o a_o angry_a man_n nor_o go_v with_o a_o furious_a man_n lest_o we_o learn_v his_o way_n and_o get_v a_o snare_n to_o our_o soul_n so_o that_o the_o evil_a example_n of_o angry_a and_o furious_a man_n become_v a_o snare_n or_o scandal_n to_o man_n soul_n who_o go_v with_o they_o wherefore_o we_o may_v safe_o apply_v the_o woe_n of_o my_o text_n to_o this_o scandalize_a and_o conclude_v that_o misery_n belong_v to_o those_o that_o scandalize_v other_o by_o sinful_a example_n the_o wage_n of_o sin_n indefinite_o be_v death_n rom._n 6._o 23._o even_o that_o death_n which_o be_v opposite_a to_o eternal_a life_n to_o wit_n eternal_a death_n of_o body_n &_o soul_n in_o hell_n fire_n which_o be_v much_o more_o due_a when_o it_o be_v not_o only_o a_o sin_n but_o also_o a_o sinful_a example_n &_o a_o scandal_n by_o sinful_a example_n but_o beside_o this_o eternal_a woe_n that_o temporal_a woe_n belong_v to_o it_o also_o the_o story_n of_o the_o misery_n of_o hophni_n and_o phinehas_n of_o david_n &_o other_o for_o their_o scandal_n by_o sinful_a example_n do_v plentiful_o show_v to_o explain_v this_o point_n more_o full_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v scandalize_v 1._o what_o action_n of_o sinful_a example_n do_v scandalize_v 2._o how_o they_o do_v scandalize_v 3._o why_o a_o woe_n belong_v to_o such_o to_o give_v answer_n to_o the_o first_o quaere_fw-la i_o say_v that_o in_o this_o sort_n of_o scandalize_a the_o action_n scandalize_a be_v that_o which_o be_v of_o itself_o sinful_a that_o be_v such_o as_o be_v prohibit_v by_o god_n to_o be_v do_v for_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o this_o and_o the_o next_o sort_n of_o scandalizng_n that_o this_o sort_n of_o scandalize_a will_v be_v sinful_a in_o god_n fight_n though_o no_o man_n be_v offend_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o when_o it_o become_v a_o scandal_n it_o be_v a_o double_a sin_n 1._o as_o it_o be_v such_o a_o kind_n of_o act_n as_o be_v forbid_v by_o god_n 2._o as_o it_o occasion_n the_o ruin_n of_o another_o as_o david_n murder_n have_v be_v a_o sin_n if_o never_o know_v but_o scandalizng_v other_o it_o become_v a_o double_a iniquity_n the_o next_o sort_n of_o scandalize_a be_v in_o a_o action_n not_o evil_a of_o itself_o but_o by_o reason_n of_o scandal_n so_o that_o be_v it_o no_o scandal_n it_o will_v be_v no_o sin_n as_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o strong_a in_o faith_n mention_v rom._n 14._o in_o eat_v
