this_o be_v a_o great_a and_o unspeakable_a comfort_n as_o may_v appear_v in_o that_o the_o angel_n so_o great_o rejoice_v herein_o when_o christ_n be_v bear_v behold_v say_v they_o i_o bring_v you_o

call_v it_o because_o god_n partly_o permit_v sin_n and_o partly_o work_v in_o it_o for_o sin_n as_o it_o be_v common_o take_v have_v two_o part_n the_o subject_n or_o matter_n and_o the_o form_n of_o sin_n the_o subject_n of_o sin_n be_v a_o certain_a quality_n or_o action_n the_o form_n be_v the_o anomy_n or_o transgression_n of_o god_n law_n the_o first_o be_v good_a in_o itself_o and_o every_o quality_n or_o action_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o it_o be_v a_o quality_n or_o action_n be_v exist_v in_o nature_n and_o have_v god_n to_o be_v the_o author_n of_o it_o therefore_o sin_n though_o it_o be_v sufficient_o evil_a to_o eternal_a damnation_n yet_o can_v it_o not_o be_v say_v to_o be_v absolute_o evil_a as_o god_n be_v absolute_o good_a because_o the_o subject_n of_o it_o be_v good_a and_o therefore_o it_o have_v in_o it_o respect_n and_o regard_n of_o goodness_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o second_o that_o be_v the_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n itself_o god_n neither_o will_v nor_o appoint_v nor_o command_v nor_o cause_v nor_o help_v sin_n but_o forbid_v condemn_v and_o punish_v it_o yet_o so_o as_o by_o withal_o he_o willing_o permit_v it_o to_o be_v do_v by_o other_o as_o man_n and_o wicked_a angel_n they_o be_v the_o sole_a author_n &_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o this_o permission_n by_o god_n be_v upon_o a_o good_a end_n because_o thereby_o he_o manife_v his_o justice_n and_o mercy_n thus_o it_o appear_v that_o in_o original_a sin_n the_o natural_a inclination_n of_o the_o mind_n will_n and_o affection_n in_o itself_o consider_v be_v from_o god_n and_o the_o ataxy_n or_o corruption_n of_o the_o inclination_n in_o no_o wise_a from_o he_o but_o only_o permit_v and_o that_o in_o actual_a sin_n the_o motion_n of_o the_o body_n or_o mind_n be_v from_o god_n but_o the_o evilnes_n &_o disorder_n of_o the_o motion_n be_v not_o from_o he_o but_o free_o permit_v to_o be_v do_v by_o other_o as_o for_o example_n in_o the_o act_n of_o murder_n the_o action_n of_o move_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o stir_v the_o several_a jointe_n and_o the_o fetch_n of_o the_o blow_n whereby_o the_o man_n be_v slay_v be_v from_o god_n for_o in_o he_o we_o live_v move_v &_o have_v

he_o be_v not_o from_o god_n but_o from_o wicked_a man_n and_o the_o devil_n god_n second_o action_n in_o the_o government_n of_o sin_n be_v after_o the_o just_a permission_n of_o it_o partly_o to_o restrain_v it_o more_o or_o less_o according_a to_o his_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_n and_o partly_o to_o dispose_v and_o turn_v it_o against_o the_o nature_n thereof_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o own_o name_n to_o the_o punishment_n of_o his_o enemy_n &_o to_o the_o correct_v and_o chastisement_n of_o his_o elect_a as_o for_o the_o second_o kind_n of_o evil_n call_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v the_o execution_n of_o justice_n and_o have_v god_n to_o be_v the_o author_n of_o it_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n esai_n say_v that_o god_n creat_v evil_a 3_o and_o amos_n that_o there_o be_v no_o evil_a in_o the_o city_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o do_v and_o god_n as_o a_o most_o just_a judge_n may_v punish_v sin_n by_o sin_n himself_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n free_a from_o all_o sin_n and_o thus_o the_o place_n must_v be_v understand_v in_o which_o it_o be_v say_v 22.22_o that_o god_n give_v king_n in_o his_o wrath_n harden_v the_o heart_n blind_v the_o eye_n

the_o difference_n that_o be_v in_o man_n that_o want_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n arise_v not_o of_o this_o that_o they_o have_v more_o or_o less_o original_a corruption_n but_o of_o the_o restraint_n and_o limitation_n of_o man_n corruption_n for_o in_o some_o god_n bridle_v sin_n more_o than_o in_o other_o and_o in_o they_o be_v find_v civility_n and_o again_o in_o some_o less_o and_o in_o such_o the_o rebellion_n of_o nature_n break_v forth_o unto_o all_o misdemeanour_n and_o indeed_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o keep_v the_o untoward_a disposition_n of_o man_n within_o compass_n otherwhiles_o more_o otherwhiles_o less_o as_o it_o shall_v seem_v good_a unto_o his_o majesty_n impiety_n cruelty_n injustice_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o sin_n will_v break_v out_o into_o such_o a_o measure_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o quiet_a live_n for_o man_n in_o the_o world_n and_o no_o place_n for_o god_n church_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o although_o all_o man_n be_v not_o equal_a in_o the_o practice_n of_o wickedness_n yet_o they_o may_v be_v equal_a in_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n itself_o the_o three_o point_n be_v that_o original_a sin_n be_v so_o huge_a and_o

unto_o he_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o second_o degree_n of_o the_o exaltation_n of_o christ_n now_o follow_v the_o three_o in_o these_o word_n and_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n the_o

which_o spread_v itself_o over_o heaven_n and_o earth_n so_o david_n say_v the_o lord_n say_v unto_o my_o lord_n 110.1_o sit_v thou_o at_o my_o right_a hand_n until_o i_o make_v thy_o enemy_n thy_o

fruit_n of_o this_o love_n of_o god_n for_o god_n be_v to_o be_v love_v for_o himself_o man_n be_v love_v for_o god_n this_o love_n must_v not_o be_v in_o show_v only_o but_o in_o deed_n and_o
