A86586	An exercitation concerning the nature of forgivenesse of sin. Very necessary (as the author humbly conceiveth) to a right informaion [sic], and well grounded decision of sundry controversal points in divinity now depending. Directly intended as an antidote for preventing the danger of antinomian doctrine. And consequently subservient for promoting the true faith of Christ and fear of God, in a godly righteous, and sober life. / By Thomas Hotchkis, Master of Arts of C.C.C.C. and minister of Gods word at Stanton by Highworth in the county of Wilts. To which is prefixed Mr. Richard Baxters preface.	Hotchkis, Thomas.; Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1654 (1654)	Wing H2891; Thomason E1518_1; Thomason E1632_1; ESTC R208563	133,342	405

gospel_n repentance_n be_v from_o and_o not_o for_o pardon_v be_v as_o i_o conceive_v because_o they_o hold_v that_o sin_n be_v actual_o pardon_v before_o it_o be_v repent_v of_o and_o observe_v therefore_o how_o one_o error_n like_o the_o link_n of_o a_o chain_n do_v draw_v on_o another_o we_o shall_v be_v the_o more_o watchful_a against_o every_o error_n and_o pray_v to_o the_o father_n

against_o their_o adversary_n who_o hold_v that_o a_o believer_n be_v to_o work_v not_o for_o pardon_v for_o life_n for_o redemption_n and_o for_o salvation_n but_o from_o they_o mr._n baxter_n have_v

in_o what_o sense_n to_o be_v disclaim_v and_o not_o trust_v unto_o for_o salvation_n as_o also_o in_o what_o sense_n or_o how_o far_o forth_o they_o may_v be_v trust_v unto_o or_o rest_v in_o for_o

eternal_a happiness_n consect_n xxii_o 22._o it_o follow_v that_o the_o repentance_n which_o the_o gospel_n require_v be_v not_o only_a repentance_n from_o the_o pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o for_o the_o pardon_n of_o they_o pardon_v of_o sin_n be_v the_o take_v away_o from_o the_o sinner_n obligation_n to_o punishment_n and_o punishment_n itself_o and_o these_o be_v not_o take_v away_o till_o a_o sinner_n have_v repent_v of_o his_o sin_n as_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o scripture_n otherwise_o a_o impenitent_a person_n have_v as_o much_o right_n to_o heaven_n and_o be_v as_o much_o in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n as_o the_o penitent_a it_o do_v unavoidable_o from_o thence_o follow_v that_o that_o repenpentance_n which_o the_o gospel_n require_v as_o save_v repentance_n or_o repentance_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n i_o mean_v our_o first_o repentance_n or_o repentance_n at_o our_o first_o conversion_n be_v for_o and_o not_o from_o the_o pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n i_o be_o

because_o it_o be_v one_o branch_n of_o the_o antinomian_a doctrine_n in_o these_o time_n that_o all_o repentance_n which_o be_v not_o from_o the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n i._n e._n the_o sense_n and_o

to_o dethrone_v christ_n to_o make_v a_o christ_n of_o our_o repentance_n now_o for_o the_o confutation_n of_o this_o new_a anti-gospel_n doctrine_n and_o for_o a_o christian_n confirmation_n in_o the_o good_a and_o old_a doctrine_n of_o christ_n the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o demonstrate_v touch_v the_o say_a doctrine_n of_o the_o antinomian_o these_o two_o thing_n 1._o that_o it_o be_v direct_o and_o abundant_o against_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n 2._o against_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o the_o demonstration_n of_o the_o former_a let_v

his_o apostle_n do_v press_v any_o person_n or_o people_n to_o repent_v from_o the_o pardon_n of_o their_o sin_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o sinner_n be_v frequent_o exhort_v to_o repent_v from_o

because_o god_n have_v tell_v hezekiah_n before_o hand_n that_o he_o will_v add_v fifteen_o year_n to_o his_o life_n shall_v we_o therefore_o conclude_v that_o hezekiah_n do_v apply_v the_o bunch_n

already_o about_o this_o point_n as_o that_o i_o shall_v not_o much_o need_n to_o say_v any_o thing_n more_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o be_o singular_o glad_a that_o mr._n baxter_n have_v admonish_v
