so_o as_o idolatry_n be_v that_o violation_n of_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n which_o do_v eminentér_n contain_v all_o the_o rest_n in_o it_o so_o be_v unbelief_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o law_n of_o

of_o act_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v very_o doubtful_a much_o more_o whether_o they_o proceed_v from_o distinct_a faculty_n as_o i_o be_o not_o of_o my_o lord_n brook_n mind_n concern_v the_o unity_n

of_o christ_n death_n what_o ever_o this_o writer_n think_v in_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o we_o but_o because_o i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o so_o palpable_o and_o dangerous_o err_v let_v i_o say_v a_o little_a more_o against_o this_o mistake_n you_o may_v remember_v i_o have_v oft_o tell_v you_o of_o how_o great_a moment_n it_o be_v in_o divinity_n to_o be_v able_a sound_o to_o distinguish_v betwixt_o immediate_a &_o mediate_v effect_n of_o christ_n death_n i_o think_v tho._n moor_n mean_v the_o immediate_a and_o mediate_v effect_n which_o he_o call_v end_n which_o have_v cause_v a_o great_a many_o page_n about_o the_o end_n of_o christ_n death_n to_o be_v write_v by_o his_o antagonist_n to_o little_a purpose_n now_o i_o will_v have_v you_o know_v that_o this_o actual_a remission_n and_o justification_n be_v no_o immediate_a but_o mediate_v effect_n of_o christ_n death_n no_o nor_o a_o personal_a right_n thereto_o if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o thing_n distinct_a from_o actual_a freedom_n and_o to_o this_o end_n i_o pray_v you_o weigh_v these_o argument_n 1._o what_o right_o soever_o god_n give_v to_o man_n to_o thing_n supernatural_a such_o as_o justification_n remission_n adoption_n he_o give_v by_o his_o write_a law_n but_o by_o these_o law_n he_o have_v give_v no_o such_o thing_n to_o any_o believer_n such_o as_o be_v the_o elect_a before_o conversion_n therefore_o etc._n etc._n the_o major_n be_v evident_a god_n decree_n give_v no_o man_n a_o personal_a right_n to_o the_o mercy_n intend_v he_o and_o for_o the_o minor_a no_o man_n can_v produce_v any_o scripture_n give_v to_o unbeliever_n such_o a_o right_n 2._o if_o god_n hate_v all_o the_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n and_o we_o be_v all_o by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n and_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n and_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o be_v condemn_v already_o then_o certain_o the_o elect_a while_n they_o be_v unbeliever_n be_v not_o actual_o de_fw-fr facto_fw-la no_o nor_o in_o personal_a right_n deliver_v from_o this_o hatred_n wrath_n displeasure_n and_o condemnation_n but_o the_o major_n be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o scripture_n therefore_o etc._n etc._n 3._o if_o we_o be_v justify_v only_o by_o faith_n then_o certain_o not_o before_o faith_n but_o we_o be_v justify_v only_o by_o faith_n therefore_o etc._n etc._n i_o do_v in_o charity_n suppose_v that_o you_o will_v not_o answer_v so_o grosle_o as_o to_o say_v we_o be_v justify_v in_o foro_fw-la dei_fw-la before_o faith_n and_o only_o in_o foro_fw-la conscientiae_fw-la by_o faith_n till_o you_o can_v find_v one_o word_n in_o scripture_n which_o say_v that_o a_o unbeliever_n be_v justify_v if_o i_o think_v you_o be_v of_o this_o opinion_n i_o shall_v think_v it_o a_o easy_a task_n to_o manifest_v its_o falsehood_n and_o if_o you_o say_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v in_o god_n decree_n before_o faith_n i_o answer_v 1._o it_o be_v no_o justification_n show_v i_o the_o scripture_n that_o call_v it_o so_o 2._o nay_o it_o clear_o imply_v the_o contrary_a for_o decree_v be_v a_o term_n of_o diminution_n as_o to_o justify_v he_o that_o say_v he_o be_v purpose_v to_o free_v you_o from_o prison_n etc._n etc._n imply_v that_o as_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o do_v to_o be_v justify_v or_o save_v in_o decree_n be_v no_o more_o but_o that_o god_n decree_v to_o justify_v and_o save_v we_o and_o therefore_o sure_o it_o be_v yet_o undo_v 4._o if_o we_o be_v exhort_v while_o we_o be_v unbeliever_n to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n and_o to_o believe_v for_o remission_n of_o sin_n then_o sure_o we_o be_v not_o yet_o reconcile_v nor_o remit_v but_o the_o former_a be_v evident_a in_o scripture_n therefore_o etc._n etc._n 5._o no_o man_n dare_v affirm_v that_o we_o be_v immediate_o upon_o christ_n death_n deliver_v actual_o and_o ipso_fw-la facto_fw-la from_o the_o power_n or_o presence_n of_o sin_n nor_o from_o affliction_n and_o death_n which_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o it_o nor_o yet_o that_o we_o be_v free_v from_o the_o distance_n and_o separation_n from_o god_n which_o sin_n procure_v and_o why_o then_o shall_v we_o think_v that_o we_o be_v immediate_o deliver_v from_o the_o guilt_n and_o condemnation_n i_o know_v the_o common_a answer_n be_v that_o justification_n be_v a_o immanent_a act_n and_o therefore_o from_o eternity_n but_o sanctification_n be_v a_o transient_a act_n but_o i_o have_v disprove_v this_o in_o the_o treatise_n and_o clear_v to_o you_o that_o justification_n be_v also_o a_o transient_a act_n otherwise_o socinianism_n be_v the_o sound_a doctrine_n that_o christ_n never_o need_v to_o satisfy_v if_o we_o be_v justify_v from_o eternity_n yet_o to_o confess_v the_o truth_n i_o be_v long_o

of_o our_o divine_n to_o fight_v against_o jesuit_n and_o arminian_n with_o the_o antinomian_a weapon_n as_o if_o our_o cause_n afford_v no_o better_o and_o so_o they_o run_v into_o the_o far_o
