imperfection_n gal._n 5.17_o 6._o they_o be_v no_o way_n profitable_a and_o beneficial_a to_o god_n psal_n 16.2_o rom._n 11.35.7_o they_o be_v no_o way_n comparable_a to_o that_o glory_n which_o

cease_v to_o sin_n if_o they_o have_v live_v for_o ever_o 2._o the_o greatness_n of_o a_o sin_n must_v not_o be_v measure_v by_o the_o time_n in_o which_o it_o be_v act_v but_o by_o the_o person_n against_o who_o it_o be_v commit_v now_o man_n sin_n against_o god_n who_o be_v infinite_a and_o therefore_o justice_n require_v a_o portion_n between_o the_o offence_n and_o the_o punishment_n though_o sin_n be_v temporary_a yet_o it_o be_v most_o just_a with_o god_n to_o punish_v it_o with_o eternal_a torment_n and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o four_o point_n i_o proceed_v to_o the_o five_o by_o who_o god_n will_v judge_v by_o that_o man_n who_o he_o have_v ordain_v say_v the_o text._n and_o this_o man_n can_v be_v no_o other_o but_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n 1_o tim._n 2.5_o so_o saint_n peter_n preach_v and_o christ_n command_v he_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o apostle_n to_o preach_v so_o act._n 10.42_o and_o he_o command_v we_o to_o preach_v unto_o the_o people_n and_o to_o testify_v that_o it_o be_v he_o which_o be_v ordain_v of_o god_n to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o quick_a and_o dead_a if_o respect_n be_v have_v to_o the_o power_n and_o authority_n of_o judge_v then_o to_o judge_v we_o do_v belong_v to_o the_o whole_a trinity_n and_o that_o equal_o as_o i_o say_v before_o but_o if_o respect_n be_v have_v to_o the_o administration_n of_o judgement_n and_o the_o visible_a act_n of_o judge_v then_o to_o judge_v we_o do_v belong_v to_o christ_n only_o for_o he_o only_o shall_v be_v see_v to_o descend_v with_o a_o guard_n of_o angel_n to_o open_v the_o

you_o shall_v see_v a_o wonderful_a confusion_n of_o thing_n a_o strange_a inequality_n of_o divine_a dispensation_n the_o wicked_a many_o time_n flourish_v and_o enjoy_v great_a prosperity_n when_o the_o righteous_a be_v afflict_v and_o endure_v great_a adversity_n now_o though_o some_o do_v from_o hence_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o present_a providence_n and_o shall_v be_v no_o

to_o come_v hear_v what_o saint_n paul_n write_v from_o athens_n to_o his_o persecute_a thessalonian_o your_o persecution_n and_o tribulation_n which_o you_o endure_v be_v a_o manifest_a token_n or_o

no_o providence_n therefore_o no_o judgement_n to_o come_v no_o but_o the_o plain_a contrary_n i_o say_v in_o my_o heart_n god_n shall_v judge_v the_o righteous_a and_o the_o wicked_a for_o a_o time_n
