A55108	A plea for the late accurate and excellent Mr. Baxter and those that speak of the sufferings of Christ as he does. In answer to Mr. Lobb's insinuated charge of Socinianism against 'em, in his late appeal to the Bishop of Worcester, and Dr. Edwards. With a preface directed to persons of all persuasions, to call 'em from frivolous and over-eager contentions about words, on all sides.	Lobb, Stephen, d. 1699.; Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691.	1699 (1699)	Wing P2521; ESTC R217330	67,965	145

to_o punish_v the_o impenitent_a the_o contumacious_a he_o allow_v to_o be_v his_o justice_n now_o therefore_o if_o crellius_n will_v consist_v with_o himself_o i_o think_v he_o needs_o must_v own_v that_o unless_o god_n govern_v the_o world_n so_o as_o to_o attain_v the_o great_a end_n of_o government_n he_o will_v not_o be_v just_o and_o that_o those_o end_n can_v be_v attain_v unless_o sin_n be_v punish_v will_v easy_o be_v make_v appear_v if_o any_o one_o shall_v make_v a_o doubt_n of_o it_o but_o the_o further_a consideration_n of_o this_o be_v more_o proper_o to_o be_v reserve_v till_o we_o meet_v with_o it_o in_o the_o second_o part_n of_o this_o discourse_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n let_v it_o be_v observe_v how_o far_o we_o have_v proceed_v and_o these_o thing_n seem_v to_o be_v very_o plain_a viz._n that_o god_n be_v in_o a_o most_o proper_a sense_n the_o governor_n of_o intelligent_a creature_n that_o as_o such_o he_o be_v most_o necessary_o just_a that_o his_o justice_n do_v respect_v the_o distribution_n of_o reward_n and_o punishment_n and_o that_o however_o in_o reference_n either_o to_o reward_n or_o punishment_n it_o may_v not_o always_o oblige_v he_o to_o execute_v strict_o what_o the_o very_a letter_n of_o the_o law_n import_v yet_o will_v it_o not_o admit_v either_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o one_o or_o other_o of_o any_o such_o relaxation_n or_o

of_o a_o mere_a pardon_n god_n can_v not_o consistent_o herewith_o absolute_o pardon_v if_o the_o very_a penalty_n threaten_v be_v not_o inflict_v justice_n itself_o require_v that_o a_o equivalent_a

the_o honour_n of_o his_o power_n wisdom_n holiness_n and_o govern_v justice_n do_v necessary_o require_v that_o if_o god_n pardon_v the_o sinner_n he_o shall_v yet_o one_o way_n or_o other_o leave_v
