of_o that_o nature_n because_o he_o can_v never_o have_v fair_o answer_v it_o and_o that_o you_o may_v see_v it_o more_o evident_a admit_v of_o this_o comparison_n for_o illustration_n suppose_v a_o

the_o which_o cause_v his_o father_n to_o be_v much_o displease_v with_o he_o so_o far_o as_o to_o disinherit_v he_o for_o that_o dishonour_n that_o he_o bring_v to_o he_o by_o his_o ill_a manner_n now_o if_o this_o son_n shall_v object_v and_o say_v why_o do_v my_o father_n deal_v thus_o with_o i_o to_o disinherit_v i_o for_o my_o ill_a manner_n who_o have_v resist_v his_o will_n for_o be_v

forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n to_o educate_v i_o no_o better_o who_o canresi_v his_o will_n why_o do_v he_o now_o find_v fault_n because_o my_o carriage_n and_o behaviour_n be_v no_o better_o see_v i_o have_v not_o resist_v his_o will_n how_o any_o man_n can_v take_v off_o the_o objection_n so_o as_o to_o dear_a the_o father_n and_o lay_v the_o fault_n on_o the_o son_n i_o know_v not_o so_o in_o like_a manner_n if_o god_n shall_v appoint_v person_n vessel_n of_o wrath_n before_o they_o be_v bear_v and_o so_o with_o hold_v the_o education_n of_o his_o spirit_n from_o

who_o have_v resist_v his_o will_n for_o it_o be_v his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n so_o to_o make_v we_o how_o that_o or_o such_o a_o like_a objection_n can_v be_v answer_v i_o know_v not_o although_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o i_o know_v all_o or_o in_o a_o great_a measure_n what_o may_v be_v say_v to_o it_o for_o if_o the_o apostle_n do_v only_o plead_v god_n prerogative_n over_o all_o creature_n as_o you_o say_v that_o he_o can_v make_v they_o what_o vessel_n he_o please_v either_o to_o honour_n or_o to_o dishonour_n and_o that_o it_o be_v his_o pleasure_n to_o make_v some_o dishonourable_a yet_o still_o the_o objection_n lie_v unanswered_a why_o do_v he_o then_o find_v fault_n see_v he_o make_v they_o as_o he_o please_v who_o have_v resist_v his_o will_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v the_o apostle_n paul_n clear_v god_n and_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v the_o people_n that_o have_v resist_v his_o will_n by_o their_o put_v eternal_a life_n away_o from_o they_o and_o so_o be_v mar_v

the_o next_o thing_n considerable_a to_o wit_n god_n power_n that_o be_v whether_o god_n want_v power_n yea_o or_o nay_o because_o it_o be_v a_o question_n you_o ask_v to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o
