behold_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n again_o man_n from_o their_o believe_a operation_n in_o scripture_n speak_v the_o same_o for_o say_v they_o we_o

which_o they_o may_v receive_v life_n as_o well_o as_o to_o receive_v judgement_n according_a to_o their_o work_n good_a or_o evil_n again_o the_o same_o man_n say_v also_o that_o all_o thing_n be_v of_o god_n who_o have_v reconcile_v we_o to_o himself_o in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o have_v give_v unto_o we_o that_o be_v Ê‹s_o apostle_n and_o those_o that_o succeed_v we_o in_o the_o ministry_n of_o reconciliation_n to_o wit_n that_o god_n be_v in_o christ_n reconcile_a the_o world_n unto_o himself_o and_o not_o impute_v their_o trespass_n unto_o they_o and_o then_o the_o apostle_n demonstrate_v a_o reason_n of_o this_o reconciliation_n of_o all_o mankind_n into_o the_o say_a posture_n namely_o because_o god_n have_v make_v christ_n to_o be_v sin_n for_o we_o who_o know_v no_o sin_n that_o we_o may_v be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o but_o sin_n inherent_o be_v not_o in_o he_o nor_o actual_o commit_v by_o he_o for_o the_o text_n say_v he_o know_v no_o sin_n and_o himself_o say_v satan_n have_v nothing_o in_o i_o therefore_o he_o be_v only_o imputative_o make_v sin_n for_o we_o and_o contrary_o we_o be_v imputative_o only_o make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o to_o justification_n and_o acceptation_n into_o the_o say_a posture_n to_o a_o right_a reception_n of_o the_o say_a gift_n of_o eternal_a life_n in_o pursuance_n of_o god_n say_v final_a end_n therefore_o as_o by_o one_o man_n offence_n death_n reign_v by_o one_o much_o more_o they_o namely_o believer_n which_o receive_v abundance_n of_o grace_n and_o of_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n shall_v reign_v in_o life_n by_o one_o jesus_n christ_n thus_o all_o mankind_n be_v put_v into_o the_o say_a posture_n by_o the_o imputation_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n again_o if_o the_o whole_a frame_n of_o nature_n be_v put_v into_o a_o posture_n by_o christ_n righteousness_n impute_v in_o opposition_n to_o the_o unrighteousness_n impute_v of_o adam_n as_o be_v prove_v and_o so_o travel_v until_o now_o from_o the_o bondage_n of_o corruption_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o glorious_a liberty_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n then_o much_o more_o do_v the_o force_n of_o the_o imputation_n of_o that_o righteousness_n put_v the_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o frame_n of_o nature_n namely_o man_n into_o the_o say_a posture_n of_o reception_n of_o eternal_a life_n hence_o observe_v that_o the_o impute_a guilt_n and_o punishment_n of_o adam_n one_o offence_n and_o the_o impute_a gift_n of_o christ_n one_o righteousness_n be_v both_o of_o one_o universal_a

be_v so_o for_o we_o see_v it_o prove_v he_o respect_v no_o man_n person_n more_o than_o another_o in_o pursuance_n of_o this_o his_o final_a end_n be_v they_o man_n without_o the_o church_n or_o be_v

in_o all_o this_o not_o only_o because_o he_o will_v it_o but_o also_o because_o he_o will_v it_o thus_o to_o man_n and_o angel_n by_o the_o say_v suitable_a rule_n and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o forementioned_a mistake_n of_o many_o reverend_a learned_a and_o godly_a man_n object_n how_o can_v that_o be_v a_o just_a act_n in_o god_n to_o punish_v a_o finite_a creature_n for_o work_n that_o

the_o nature_n and_o degree_n of_o the_o fact_n for_o we_o by_o our_o law_n take_v away_o this_o life_n which_o now_o man_n have_v for_o fact_n do_v in_o a_o short_a time_n and_o that_o life_n so_o

much_o more_o be_v the_o righteous_a administration_n of_o god_n to_o proceed_v thus_o with_o man_n and_o angel_n but_o as_o for_o that_o fact_n of_o angel_n it_o be_v most_o transcendent_a first_o because_o they_o voluntary_o leave_v their_o first_o estate_n as_o not_o like_v it_o and_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o so_o do_v be_v in_o the_o text_n that_o be_v they_o be_v puff_v up_o that_o be_v to_o be_v above_o what_o god_n have_v make_v they_o although_v the_o high_a create_a nature_n and_o so_o next_o to_o the_o uncreate_v and_o unmeasurable_a essence_n of_o god_n therefore_o they_o be_v puff_v up_o their_o sin_n be_v they_o will_v have_v be_v he_o because_o between_o he_o and_o they_o there_o be_v no_o middle_a thing_n therefore_o because_o they_o will_v have_v be_v eternity_n itself_o eternity_n in_o punishment_n be_v their_o just_a reward_n again_o i_o answer_v if_o the_o case_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n in_o the_o point_n of_o eternal_a reprobation_n have_v be_v this_o 10._o jer._n 18._o from_o v._o 1._o to_o 10._o that_o not_o man_n undeserving_n have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o reprobation_n but_o only_o the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o reprobate_n without_o respect_n

proceed_v as_o be_v say_v only_o according_a to_o their_o work_n to_o the_o say_v suitable_a rule_n therefore_o it_o be_v most_o just_a and_o righteous_a but_o as_o for_o the_o aforesaid_a mistake_n of_o reverend_n divine_n be_v ground_v principal_o upon_o the_o nine_o to_o the_o roman_n therefore_o i_o refer_v the_o reader_n to_o the_o exposition_n of_o the_o nine_o to_o the_o roman_n in_o my_o forementioned_a treatise_n to_o the_o page_n in_o the_o margin_n object_n god_n make_v man_n and_o angel_n in_o the_o natural_a liberty_n of_o their_o will_n purposely_o that_o they_o may_v be_v

will_n therefore_o let_v all_o man_n submit_v to_o his_o will_n if_o they_o will_v not_o perish_v by_o follow_v their_o own_o will_n answer_n again_o i_o answer_v i_o answer_v there_o be_v a_o time_n and_o mean_n in_o which_o and_o by_o which_o all_o man_n and_o angel_n which_o be_v now_o under_o eternal_a misery_n may_v in_o that_o time_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n have_v be_v vessel_n of_o
