the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o the_o question_n be_v quest_n what_o be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n answ_n the_o answer_n be_v it_o be_v a_o communicable_a attribute_n whereby_o god_n love_v himself_o his_o son_n and_o his_o spirit_n and_o then_o his_o creature_n free_o but_o not_o equal_o to_o explain_v these_o point_n we_o give_v love_n to_o god_n as_o other_o attribute_n not_o as_o quality_n not_o as_o accident_n not_o as_o any_o thing_n come_v from_o god_n that_o be_v not_o in_o he_o before_o because_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o god_n that_o be_v not_o in_o god_n love_n be_v give_v to_o god_n as_o void_a of_o all_o imperfection_n or_o error_n it_o be_v a_o rule_n that_o the_o learned_a have_v that_o whatsoever_o attribute_n be_v give_v to_o god_n must_v be_v free_a from_o all_o imperfection_n and_o error_n before_o we_o can_v attribute_n it_o to_o he_o and_o therefore_o love_v as_o it_o be_v a_o attribute_n give_v to_o god_n must_v be_v purge_v from_o all_o imperfection_n there_o be_v three_o thing_n in_o love_n first_o a_o good_a will_n that_o one_o bear_v to_o another_o second_o a_o good_a work_n three_o a_o delight_v in_o that_o which_o be_v love_v these_o thing_n be_v in_o god_n none_o have_v a_o better_a will_n than_o god_n none_o do_v more_o good_a than_o god_n and_o there_o be_v none_o that_o delight_v more_o in_o his_o belove_a than_o god_n himself_o again_o we_o say_v it_o be_v a_o communicable_a attribute_n not_o that_o love_n be_v in_o god_n as_o it_o be_v in_o man_n but_o because_o there_o be_v something_o in_o man_n that_o be_v like_o this_o love_n of_o god_n man_n be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o godly_a nature_n that_o be_v they_o have_v this_o in_o the_o quality_n that_o god_n have_v in_o substance_n and_o therefore_o we_o call_v it_o a_o communicable_a attribute_n in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o say_v it_o be_v that_o whereby_o he_o love_v himself_o his_o son_n and_o his_o spirit_n it_o be_v for_o his_o own_o glory_n that_o he_o love_v himself_o as_o it_o appear_v in_o that_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n be_v a_o jealous_a god_n jealous_a of_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n if_o he_o be_v jealous_a there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o love_n of_o himself_o go_v with_o it_o 2._o commandment_n so_o he_o love_v himself_o and_o he_o love_v
can_v nor_o will_v not_o cease_v to_o favour_v his_o son_n so_o neither_o will_v he_o cease_v to_o favour_n those_o that_o he_o love_v in_o his_o son_n but_o as_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n do_v never_o leave_v christ_n till_o he_o have_v bring_v he_o to_o glory_n so_o undoubted_o he_o will_v never_o leave_v those_o that_o he_o love_v in_o christ_n for_o if_o he_o deal_v thus_o with_o his_o natural_a body_n he_o will_v deal_v thus_o with_o his_o mystical_a body_n certain_o he_o will_v bring_v the_o mystical_a body_n where_o he_o have_v bring_v the_o natural_a body_n for_o christ_n have_v pray_v father_n i_o will_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v where_o i_o be_o certain_o if_o he_o have_v bring_v christ_n to_o that_o glory_n he_o will_v bring_v his_o mystical_a body_n to_o it_o why_o because_o he_o have_v take_v possession_n of_o it_o in_o our_o nature_n and_o therefore_o out_o of_o that_o love_n that_o god_n bear_v to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n he_o will_v do_v it_o and_o as_o tertullian_n say_v that_o our_o nature_n have_v take_v possession_n of_o heaven_n already_o therefore_o he_o that_o deny_v thou_o that_o be_v a_o member_n of_o christ_n that_o thou_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n he_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v in_o heaven_n but_o every_o man_n that_o will_v be_v prataker_n of_o the_o glory_n must_v labour_v to_o make_v his_o election_n sure_a because_o there_o be_v but_o some_o that_o shall_v be_v partaker_n of_o this_o comfort_n let_v every_o man_n labour_n to_o see_v whether_o he_o be_v elect_v and_o call_v that_o so_o he_o may_v know_v whether_o he_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n and_o these_o be_v the_o degree_n as_o the_o apostle_n lay_v they_o down_o in_o rom._n 8._o call_v sanctification_n and_o so_o proceed_v in_o that_o order_n

as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o it_o then_o as_o god_n love_v that_o which_o be_v good_a so_o he_o hate_v that_o which_o be_v nought_o and_o evil_a for_o as_o god_n be_v say_v to_o love_n so_o he_o be_v say_v to_o hate_v again_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o communicable_a attribute_n because_o that_o there_o be_v the_o like_a in_o man_n next_o it_o be_v that_o by_o which_o he_o free_o decree_v not_o to_o show_v mercy_n to_o the_o wicked_a to_o deny_v to_o they_o the_o grace_n of_o election_n to_o open_v this_o hatred_n in_o the_o scripture_n do_v many_o time_n signify_v to_o refuse_v to_o give_v and_o to_o deny_v favour_n to_o put_v behind_o and_o make_v less_o account_n of_o one_o than_o another_o as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v luke_n 14_o 26._o he_o that_o hate_v not_o his_o father_n and_o his_o mother_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v he_o that_o do_v not_o deny_v his_o father_n by_o put_v he_o behind_o he_o and_o neglect_v he_o when_o he_o command_v any_o thing_n and_o god_n another_o god_n see_v that_o leah_n be_v hate_v that_o be_v be_v not_o so_o dear_o love_v as_o rahel_n so_o this_o hatred_n of_o god_n be_v to_o neglect_v to_o show_v favour_n and_o to_o deny_v the_o grace_n of_o election_n to_o the_o wicked_a this_o be_v apparent_a rom._n 9.13_o i_o have_v hate_v esan_n and_o love_v jacob_n this_o be_v not_o put_v down_o but_o with_o opposition_n i_o have_v

be_v that_o which_o be_v further_o manifest_v in_o the_o 18._o verse_n of_o the_o same_o chapter_n i_o will_v have_v mercy_n on_o who_o i_o will_v and_o who_o i_o will_v i_o harden_v etc._n etc._n this_o god_n do_v free_o from_o his_o own_o will_n his_o will_n be_v the_o solitary_a cause_n of_o deny_v the_o grace_n of_o election_n the_o cause_n why_o he_o choose_v jacob_n and_o hate_v esau_n be_v nothing_o but_o his_o will_n it_o be_v manifest_a rom._n 9.11.12_o before_o they_o have_v do_v good_a or_o evil_n god_n say_v that_o the_o elder_a shall_v serve_v the_o young_a that_o it_o may_v

exod._n 23.19_o i_o will_v have_v mercy_n on_o who_o i_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o who_o i_o will_v etc._n etc._n as_o god_n do_v absolute_o love_v who_o he_o will_v so_o he_o do_v absolute_o hate_v who_o he_o will_v he_o deny_v the_o grace_n of_o election_n to_o the_o most_o there_o be_v but_o a_o few_o that_o have_v favour_n mat._n 20.16_o many_o be_v call_v the_o next_o thing_n be_v that_o

and_o love_n of_o justice_n do_v decree_n and_o prepare_v to_o punish_v all_o and_o only_o such_o as_o shall_v live_v and_o die_v in_o sin_n without_o repentance_n that_o negative_a act_n of_o reprobation_n or_o preterition_n find_v all_o man_n alike_o in_o the_o same_o condition_n this_o positive_a act_n of_o predamnation_n respect_v man_n as_o sinner_n without_o repentance_n that_o first_o act_n be_v ground_v only_o on_o the_o absolute_a will_n of_o god_n i_o will_v have_v mercy_n on_o who_o i_o will_v etc._n etc._n and_o who_o i_o will_v i_o harden_v but_o this_o latter_a act_n be_v a_o act_n not_o so_o much_o of_o power_n as_o of_o justice_n and_o always_o have_v respect_n to_o sin_n the_o three_o thing_n that_o he_o actual_o punish_v they_o when_o they_o be_v wicked_a it_o be_v manifest_a that_o they_o that_o be_v bear_v in_o sin_n and_o live_v in_o sin_n know_v it_o to_o be_v sin_n be_v enemy_n to_o god_n and_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o they_o he_o actual_o hate_v when_o they_o be_v wicked_a this_o be_v apparent_a thou_o hate_v all_o those_o that_o work_n wickedness_n and_o that_o hatred_n carry_v the_o punishment_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o next_o word_n of_o my_o text_n and_o thou_o destroy_v all_o those_o that_o tell_v lie_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o hate_v they_o as_o they_o be_v man_n and_o his_o creature_n but_o as_o they_o be_v wicked_a bernard_n say_v man_n can_v not_o endure_v after_o god_n make_v but_o he_o will_v be_v better_o therefore_o he_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o paradise_n godhating_a all_o iniquity_n in_o whosoever_o it_o be_v elect_a or_o reprobate_a psal_n 45.7_o thou_o love_v righteousness_n and_o hate_v iniquity_n and_o this_o i_o may_v show_v unto_o you_o that_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n almost_o but_o i_o can_v bring_v you_o a_o plain_a text_n of_o god_n hatred_n of_o it_o sometime_o hate_v idolatry_n sometime_o hate_v blood_n sometime_o false_a weight_n sometime_o contempt_n of_o his_o word_n sometime_o wicked_a thought_n all_o which_o show_n that_o he_o hate_v iniquity_n two_o way_n he_o manifest_v he_o hate_v it_o in_o some_o because_o he_o destroy_v they_o for_o it_o in_o other_o because_o he_o take_v it_o away_o by_o justice_n in_o his_o own_o son_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o description_n quest_n how_o just_o can_v god_n decree_v and_o destinate_a man_n to_o hatred_n and_o destruction_n absolute_o answ_n the_o answer_n be_v thus_o because_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o all_o the_o lord_n over_o all_o by_o either_o of_o which_o he_o may_v decree_v what_o he_o please_v concern_v his_o creature_n we_o manifest_v this_o first_o that_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o all_o no_o man_n make_v question_n then_o if_o he_o make_v all_o as_o he_o will_v and_o to_o what_o

do_v with_o it_o what_o he_o will_v rom_n 9.20_o 21._o when_o he_o have_v speak_v of_o man_n reprobation_n there_o may_v be_v some_o that_o will_v question_v with_o he_o and_o say_v how_o be_v this_o

the_o potter_n have_v power_n over_o the_o clay_n and_o have_v not_o the_o lord_n much_o more_o power_n over_o we_o second_o he_o be_v a_o absolute_a lord_n over_o we_o what_o follow_v then_o he_o may_v therefore_o for_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o mercy_n appoint_v some_o to_o glory_n and_o some_o to_o destruction_n why_o because_o he_o be_v absolute_a lord_n mark_v the_o place_n in_o which_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o potter_n what_o if_o god_n willing_a to_o show_v his_o wrath_n to_o make_v his_o power_n know_v endure_v with_o much_o patience_n the_o vessel_n of_o wrath_n prepare_v to_o destruction_n that_o he_o may_v magnify_v his_o wrath_n upon_o the_o one_o and_o his_o grace_n upon_o the_o other_o so_o also_o in_o 2_o tim._n 2.20_o in_o a_o
