i_o do_v confess_v it_o if_o it_o be_v well_o understand_v but_o not_o in_o that_o sense_n that_o they_o do_v take_v it_o which_o allege_v that_o text_n or_o passage_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o abuse_v the_o grace_n &_o goodness_n of_o god._n 16._o it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o god_n have_v make_v no_o creature_n to_o that_o only_a end_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v damn_v for_o he_o have_v create_v all_o thing_n for_o his_o glory_n &_o have_v mind_n all_o for_o himself_o yea_o the_o wicked_a for_o the_o evil_a day_n that_o be_v the_o principal_a end_n of_o all_o his_o work_n notwithstanding_o he_o leave_v not_o to_o punish_v and_o to_o damn_v with_o eternal_a death_n those_o which_o contemn_v his_o law_n and_o his_o holy_a word_n forsomuch_o as_o their_o damnation_n do_v serve_v to_o his_o glory_n for_o the_o which_o they_o be_v create_v for_o his_o glory_n do_v not_o only_o consist_v in_o that_o that_o he_o show_v mercy_n to_o he_o but_o also_o in_o that_o that_o he_o execute_v iugement_n and_o do_v declare_v his_o justice_n upon_o his_o enemy_n let_v we_o therefore_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o mock_v not_o with_o he_o nor_o seduce_v ourselves_o for_o albeit_o that_o by_o his_o great_a power_n and_o wisdom_n he_o can_v draw_v goodness_n out_o of_o the_o evil_a which_o the_o wicked_a commit_v and_o can_v turn_v it_o and_o make_v it_o to_o serve_v to_o his_o honour_n and_o glory_n and_o to_o the_o health_n of_o his_o choose_a people_n whereas_o the_o wicked_a one_o do_v turn_v his_o good_a creature_n and_o his_o good_a work_n into_o evil_a he_o leave_v not_o for_o all_o that_o to_o hate_v still_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a in_o somuch_o as_o it_o be_v evil_a and_o the_o abuse_n of_o his_o creature_n and_o of_o his_o gift_n and_o grace_n and_o to_o condemn_v and_o punish_v those_o which_o commit_v such_o offence_n if_o they_o have_v not_o forgiveness_n by_o his_o grace_n &_o mercy_n in_o jesus_n christ_n how_o that_o every_o sin_n be_v of_o his_o own_o nature_n damnable_a and_o how_o that_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v not_o able_a to_o damn_v the_o faithful_a t._n so_o far_o forth_o as_o i_o may_v judge_v
