corporal_a death_n death_n so_o a_o spiritual_a death_n have_v two_o thing_n in_o it_o first_o as_o in_o the_o natural_a death_n there_o be_v a_o privation_n of_o life_n when_o the_o soul_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n so_o in_o the_o spiritual_a death_n there_o be_v a_o privation_n of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n namely_o the_o extinction_n of_o original_a righteousness_n by_o reason_n of_o which_o a_o man_n can_v neither_o set_v hand_n nor_o foot_n forward_o in_o the_o way_n of_o goodness_n as_o paul_n confess_v of_o himself_o for_o as_o the_o separation_n of_o the_o soul_n make_v the_o body_n to_o die_v so_o the_o extinction_n of_o original_a righteousness_n make_v the_o soul_n to_o die_v second_o as_o in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n there_o be_v a_o stink_a carcase_n leave_v when_o the_o soul_n be_v depart_v thence_o so_o in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o soul_n there_o be_v a_o positive_a corrupt_a quality_n leave_v call_v the_o flesh_n whereby_o a_o man_n be_v prone_a to_o do_v all_o evil_a and_o therefore_o they_o be_v call_v dead_a work_n call_v therefore_o leave_v the_o principle_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n let_v we_o go_v on_o unto_o perfection_n not_o lay_v again_o the_o foundation_n of_o repentance_n from_o dead_a work_n etc._n etc._n heb._n 6._o 1._o and_o so_o again_o in_o the_o 9_o chapter_n of_o the_o same_o epistle_n and_o 15._o verse_n where_o it_o be_v say_v how_o much_o more_o shall_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n who_o through_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n offer_v himself_o without_o spot_n to_o god_n purge_v your_o conscience_n from_o dead_a work_n to_o serve_v the_o live_a god_n now_o it_o seem_v a_o contradiction_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v work_n and_o yet_o dead_a but_o yet_o it_o be_v so_o because_o beside_o the_o privation_n of_o good_a there_o be_v a_o positive_a evil_n and_o stir_a quality_n which_o be_v active_a and_o bring_v forth_o these_o evil_a and_o dead_a work_n now_o for_o the_o chief_a seat_n of_o this_o death_n death_n it_o be_v chief_o seat_v in_o the_o mind_n and_o understanding_n and_o not_o in_o the_o will_n the_o understanding_n be_v primum_fw-la vivens_fw-la &_o moriens_fw-la primum_fw-la the_o first_o live_v and_o first_o dead_a for_o although_o the_o will_v be_v corrupt_v yet_o whatsoever_o be_v in_o it_o be_v carry_v through_o the_o understanding_n and_o this_o death_n of_o the_o understanding_n be_v such_o a_o darkness_n of_o judgement_n as_o thereby_o a_o man_n esteem_v not_o but_o dislike_v the_o way_n of_o god_n and_o goodness_n and_o approve_v the_o way_n of_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n and_o in_o this_o faculty_n of_o man_n the_o understanding_n be_v this_o death_n of_o sin_n chief_o seat_v therefore_o it_o it_o be_v say_v joh._n 1._o 4_o

the_o dead_a and_o christ_n shall_v give_v thou_o light_v 1●_n where_o he_o say_v not_o life_n but_o light_n for_o if_o there_o be_v light_n life_n will_v certain_o follow_v so_o again_o act_v 26._o 18._o to_o open_v their_o eye_n that_o they_o may_v turn_v from_o darkness_n to_o light_n one_o will_v think_v that_o in_o these_o place_n it_o shall_v be_v life_n and_o not_o light_a but_o it_o be_v so_o put_v to_o show_v that_o the_o chief_a seat_n of_o this_o death_n be_v in_o the_o understanding_n therefore_o also_o be_v it_o say_v be_v renew_v in_o the_o spirit_n of_o your_o mind_n rom._n

sin_n how_o shall_v they_o know_v they_o be_v sin_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v answ._n the_o spark_n of_o conscience_n will_v glow_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o this_o darkness_n sin_n that_o will_v grudge_v at_o that_o sin_n and_o then_o be_v sure_a it_o be_v a_o know_a sin_n though_o it_o do_v but_o whisper_v against_o it_o if_o therefore_o thy_o conscience_n tell_v thou_o that_o such_o and_o such_o thing_n be_v naught_o and_o to_o be_v avoid_v although_o it_o may_v be_v for_o a_o time_n thou_o may_v keep_v down_o thy_o conscience_n and_o suffer_v it_o not_o to_o speak_v out_o for_o the_o

for_o certain_a shall_v thou_o find_v these_o to_o be_v sin_n and_o that_o to_o thy_o cost_n thou_o now_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o say_v some_o thing_n and_o put_v away_o thy_o sin_n from_o thou_o but_o that_o will_v not_o serve_v the_o turn_n harken_v therefore_o now_o to_o thy_o conscience_n and_o see_v whether_o that_o do_v not_o tell_v thou_o such_o and_o such_o thing_n be_v sinful_a here_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v object_n a_o godly_a man_n sometime_o may_v have_v a_o scruple_n in_o conscience_n whether_o he_o be_v to_o do_v such_o or_o such_o thing_n now_o therefore_o wherein_o lie_v the_o difference_n between_o the_o scruple_n of_o the_o godly_a and_o ignorance_n of_o the_o wicked_a to_o this_o i_o answer_v answ._n indeed_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o

they_o may_v be_v discern_v 1_o for_o the_o guilty_a conscience_n when_o he_o lie_v in_o a_o know_a sin_n 1._o and_o his_o conscience_n tell_v he_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n he_o make_v no_o inquiry_n after_o it_o it_o but_o he_o find_v such_o a_o sweetness_n in_o it_o that_o his_o heart_n be_v engage_v to_o it_o he_o can_v speak_v against_o it_o nay_o he_o resolve_v to_o sin_n yea_o and_o whensoever_o he_o be_v reprove_v for_o it_o he_o be_v very_o angry_a but_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n for_o he_o that_o have_v a_o scruple_n in_o conscience_n may_v he_o but_o be_v inform_v of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n he_o will_v fain_o know_v it_o and_o with_o all_o his_o heart_n leave_v it_o therefore_o he_o do_v but_o inquire_v and_o labour_v by_o all_o mean_n to_o know_v if_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n and_o no_o soon_o do_v he_o know_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sin_n but_o he_o forsake_v it_o 2_o 2._o thou_o may_v discern_v of_o it_o by_o the_o subject_a matter_n of_o their_o scruple_n matter_n if_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a knot_n and_o question_n than_o it_o may_v be_v in_o a_o good_a man_n and_o such_o a_o one_o shall_v gather_v the_o sound_a and_o best_a reason_n and_o see_v what_o side_n be_v most_o probable_a and_o that_o he_o must_v follow_v but_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n if_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n of_o morality_n than_o thou_o be_v the_o more_o to_o be_v
