not_o at_o all_o necessitate_v the_o creature_n to_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v be_v damn_v object_n but_o how_o be_v this_o similitude_n pertinent_a for_o god_n do_v not_o only_o foresee_v sin_n will_v be_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o creature_n but_o let_v it_o come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o so_o destroy_v the_o creature_n if_o you_o as_o you_o foresee_v the_o fruitlesness_n of_o your_o tree_n shall_v withal_o see_v that_o which_o make_v it_o so_o and_o that_o too_o before_o it_o make_v it_o so_o and_o yet_o let_v the_o impediment_n come_v and_o make_v it_o so_o be_v not_o you_o now_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o unfruitfulness_n of_o that_o tree_n which_o you_o have_v before_o condemn_v to_o the_o sue_v to_o be_v burn_v for_o god_n may_v have_v choose_v whether_o he_o will_v have_v let_v adam_n sin_n and_o so_o sin_n to_o have_v get_v into_o the_o world_n by_o he_o answ._n similitude_n never_o answer_v every_o way_n if_o they_o be_v pertinent_a to_o that_o for_o which_o they_o be_v intend_v it_o be_v enough_o and_o to_o that_o it_o answer_v well_o be_v bring_v to_o prove_v no_o more_o but_o the_o natural_a consequence_n of_o a_o true_a and_o infallible_a foresight_n and_o now_o as_o to_o what_o be_v object_v further_o as_o that_o god_n may_v have_v choose_v whether_o sin_n shall_v have_v come_v into_o the_o world_n by_o adam_n to_o the_o destruction_n of_o so_o many_o to_o that_o i_o shall_v answer_v 1._o that_o sin_n can_v not_o have_v come_v into_o the_o world_n without_o god_n permission_n it_o be_v evident_a both_o from_o the_o perfection_n of_o his_o foresight_n &_o power_n 2._o therefore_o all_o the_o mean_n motive_n and_o inducement_n thereunto_o must_v also_o by_o he_o be_v not_o only_o fore-seen_a but_o permit_v 3._o yet_o so_o that_o god_n will_v have_v the_o time_v proceed_v bound_a and_o order_v thereof_o at_o his_o dispose_n sure_o the_o wrath_n of_o man_n shall_v praise_v thou_o and_o the_o remainder_n of_o wrath_n shall_v thou_o restrain_v 1_o king_n 22.20_o 21_o 22._o john_n 8.20_o luk._n 22.51_o 52._o psal._n 76.10_o 4._o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o come_v into_o the_o world_n not_o without_o but_o by_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n not_o in_o despite_n of_o he_o but_o by_o his_o suffering_n of_o it_o object_n but_o how_o then_o be_v he_o clear_a from_o have_v a_o hand_n in_o the_o death_n of_o he_o that_o perish_v answ._n nothing_o be_v more_o sure_a than_o that_o god_n can_v have_v keep_v sin_n out_o of_o the_o world_n if_o it_o have_v be_v his_o will_n and_o this_o be_v also_o as_o true_a that_o it_o never_o come_v into_o the_o world_n with_o his_o like_n and_o compliance_n and_o for_o this_o you_o must_v consider_v that_o sin_n come_v into_o the_o world_n by_o two_o step_n 1._o by_o be_v offer_v 2._o by_o prevail_v touch_v the_o first_o of_o these_o god_n without_o the_o least_o injury_n to_o any_o creature_n in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n may_v not_o only_o suffer_v it_o but_o so_o far_o countenance_v the_o same_o that_o be_v so_o far_o forth_o as_o for_o trial_n only_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o abraham_n god_n tempt_v abraham_n to_o slay_v his_o only_a son_n and_o lead_v christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n into_o the_o wilderness_n to_o be_v tempt_v of_o the_o devil_n this_o be_v do_v without_o any_o harm_n at_o all_o nay_o it_o rather_o produce_v good_a for_o it_o tend_v to_o discover_v sincerity_n to_o exercise_v faith_n in_o and_o love_n to_o his_o creator_n also_o to_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o the_o continual_a need_n he_o have_v of_o depend_v on_o his_o god_n for_o the_o continuation_n of_o help_n and_o strength_n and_o to_o provoke_v to_o prayer_n to_o god_n when_o ever_o so_o engage_v gen._n 22.1_o 2._o mark_v 1.12_o luke_n 4.1_o deut._n 8.1_o 2_o 3._o 1_o pet._n 1.7_o 8._o heb._n 5.7_o matth._n 26.41_o object_n but_o god_n do_v not_o only_o admit_v that_o sin_n shall_v be_v offer_v for_o trial_n and_o there_o to_o stay_v but_o do_v suffer_v it_o to_o prevail_v and_o overcome_v the_o world_n answ._n well_o this_o be_v grant_v but_o yet_o consider_v 1._o god_n do_v neither_o suffer_v it_o nor_o yet_o consent_v it_o shall_v but_o under_o this_o consideration_n if_o adam_n upright_a adam_n give_v way_n thereto_o by_o forsake_v his_o command_n in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v which_o adam_n do_v not_o because_o god_n do_v compel_v he_o or_o persuade_v he_o to_o it_o but_o voluntary_o of_o his_o own_o mind_n contrary_a to_o his_o god_n command_n so_o then_o god_n by_o suffer_v sin_n to_o break_v into_o the_o world_n do_v it_o rather_o in_o judgement_n as_o dislike_a adam_n act_n and_o as_o a_o punishment_n to_o man_n for_o listen_v to_o the_o tempter_n and_o as_o a_o discovery_n of_o his_o anger_n at_o man_n disobedience_n then_o to_o prove_v that_o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o misery_n of_o his_o creature_n gen._n 2.17_o &_o 3.3_o 2._o consider_v also_o that_o when_o god_n permit_v sin_n for_o trial_n it_o be_v when_o offer_v first_o to_o they_o only_o who_o be_v upright_o and_o have_v sufficient_a strength_n to_o resist_v it_o 3._o they_o be_v by_o god_n command_n to_o the_o contrary_a drive_v to_o no_o strait_a to_o tempt_v they_o to_o incline_v to_o satan_n of_o every_o tree_n of_o the_o garden_n thou_o may_v free_o eat_v say_v god_n only_o let_v this_o alone_a 4._o as_o touch_v the_o beauty_n and_o goodness_n that_o be_v in_o the_o object_n unto_o which_o they_o be_v allure_v what_o be_v it_o be_v it_o better_a than_o god_n yea_o be_v it_o better_a than_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n for_o from_o that_o they_o be_v not_o exempt_v till_o after_o they_o have_v sin_v do_v not_o god_n know_v best_a what_o be_v best_a to_o do_v they_o good_a 5._o touch_v he_o that_o persuade_v they_o to_o do_v this_o wicked_a act_n be_v his_o word_n more_o to_o be_v value_v for_o truth_n more_o to_o be_v venture_v on_o for_o safety_n or_o more_o to_o be_v honour_v for_o the_o

truth_n and_o to_o preserve_v they_o safe_a quest._n but_o be_v not_o adam_n unexpected_o suprize_v have_v he_o notice_n beforehand_o and_o warning_n of_o the_o danger_n for_o god_n foresee_v the_o business_n answ._n doubtless_o god_n be_v fair_a and_o faithful_a to_o his_o creature_n in_o this_o thing_n also_o as_o clear_o do_v appear_v from_o these_o consideration_n 1._o the_o very_a commandment_n that_o god_n give_v he_o fore-bespake_a he_o well_o to_o look_v about_o he_o and_o do_v indeed_o insinuate_v that_o he_o be_v likely_a to_o be_v tempt_v 2._o it_o be_v yet_o more_o evident_a because_o god_n do_v even_o tell_v he_o of_o the_o danger_n in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v 3._o nay_o god_n by_o speak_v to_o he_o of_o the_o very_a tree_n that_o be_v to_o be_v forbear_v tell_v he_o also_o where_o it_o stand_v that_o he_o may_v the_o better_o know_v it_o do_v in_o effect_n express_o say_v unto_o he_o adam_z if_o thou_o be_v tempt_v it_o will_v be_v about_o that_o tree_n and_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o wherefore_o if_o thou_o find_v the_o tempter_n there_o then_o beware_v thy_o life_n to_o conclude_v then_o though_o sin_n do_v not_o come_v into_o the_o world_n without_o god_n sufferance_n yet_o it_o do_v without_o his_o like_n god_n suffer_v also_o cain_n to_o kill_v his_o brother_n and_o ishmael_n to_o mock_v at_o isaac_n but_o he_o do_v not_o like_o the_o same_o gen._n 4.9_o 10_o 11._o gal._n 4.30_o second_o therefore_o though_o god_n be_v first_o in_o conclude_v sin_n shall_v be_v offer_v to_o the_o world_n yet_o man_n be_v the_o first_o that_o consent_v to_o a_o be_v overcome_v thereby_o three_o then_o though_o god_n do_v fore-determine_a that_o sin_n shall_v enter_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o but_o with_o respect_n to_o certain_a term_n and_o condition_n which_o yet_o be_v not_o to_o be_v enforce_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o determination_n but_o permit_v to_o be_v complete_v by_o the_o voluntary_a inclination_n of_o a_o perfect_a and_o upright_o man_n and_o in_o that_o the_o determination_n be_v most_o perfect_o infallible_a it_o be_v through_o the_o foresight_n of_o the_o undoubted_a inclination_n of_o this_o good_a and_o upright_a person_n quest._n but_o may_v not_o god_n have_v keep_v adam_n from_o incline_v if_o he_o will_v answ._n what_o more_o certain_a but_o yet_o consider_v 1._o adam_n be_v now_o a_o upright_a man_n he_o be_v able_a to_o have_v keep_v himself_o have_v he_o but_o look_v to_o it_o as_o he_o shall_v and_o may_v 2._o this_o be_v so_o if_o
