A14095 A discovery of D. Iacksons vanitie. Or A perspective glasse, wherby the admirers of D. Iacksons profound discourses, may see the vanitie and weaknesse of them, in sundry passages, and especially so farre as they tende to the undermining of the doctrine hitherto received.

venerit_fw-la in_o the_o 8._o chap._n and_o pag._n 91._o you_o tell_v we_o as_o a_o quaint_a conceit_n that_o we_o may_v conceive_v wisdom_n to_o be_v the_o father_n and_o power_n the_o mother_n of_o all_o god_n work_n of_o wonder_n and_o i_o think_v you_o account_n few_o or_o no_o work_n more_o wonderful_a than_o the_o creation_n and_o yet_o that_o which_o you_o say_v here_o i_o prefer_v before_o that_o which_o you_o have_v former_o express_v there_o because_o the_o love_n of_o god_n have_v strict_a sociation_n with_o the_o will_n of_o god_n than_o either_o wisdom_n or_o power_n but_o you_o have_v not_o discover_v unto_o we_o if_o love_v be_v the_o mother_n what_o be_v to_o be_v account_v the_o father_n or_o if_o you_o refer_v this_o to_o the_o love_a will_n and_o affection_n of_o god_n why_o this_o shall_v be_v account_v the_o mother_n rather_o than_o the_o father_n of_o the_o work_n of_o god_n again_o we_o have_v earthly_a parent_n as_o father_n and_o mother_n which_o be_v endue_v with_o will_n and_o love_n and_o other_o affection_n and_o it_o be_v out_o of_o all_o course_n to_o say_v that_o their_o love_n or_o their_o will_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o their_o child_n especial_o consider_v that_o will_n be_v find_v in_o the_o father_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o mother_n yea_o and_o love_v also_o if_o not_o in_o great_a measure_n but_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o god_n make_v the_o world_n out_o of_o love_n but_o out_o of_o love_n to_o who_o to_o the_o creature_n nothing_o less_o i_o shall_v think_v as_o before_o i_o have_v show_v but_o rather_o out_o of_o love_n to_o himself_o as_o prov._n 16._o 4._o god_n make_v all_o thing_n for_o himself_o and_o great_a reason_n god_n who_o be_v the_o sovereign_a creator_n of_o all_o thing_n shall_v be_v the_o supreme_a end_n of_o all_o thing_n but_o let_v this_o pass_v your_o next_o sentence_n be_v more_o serious_a and_o ponderous_a but_o very_o preposterous_a and_o unsound_a first_o it_o contain_v a_o general_a proposition_n with_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o and_o then_o a_o qualification_n or_o limitation_n thereof_o by_o way_n of_o exception_n unto_o a_o certain_a time_n the_o proposition_n be_v this_o no_o part_n of_o our_o nature_n can_v be_v exclude_v from_o all_o fruit_n of_o his_o love_n now_o the_o fruit_n of_o god_n love_v you_o make_v to_o be_v not_o only_a grace_n and_o glory_n but_o our_o temporal_a be_v also_o and_o the_o preservation_n thereof_o for_o you_o make_v creation_n to_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o god_n love_n now_o this_o proposition_n so_o general_a to_o my_o understanding_n be_v utter_o untrue_a for_o not_o only_a god_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o give_v grace_n and_o glory_n unto_o any_o for_o they_o be_v mere_o gratuita_fw-la dona_fw-la and_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o do_v what_o he_o will_v with_o his_o own_o in_o bestow_v it_o on_o who_o he_o will_v and_o denyinge_v it_o to_o who_o he_o will_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n testify_v that_o he_o have_v mercy_n on_o who_o he_o will_v and_o who_o he_o will_v he_o harden_v but_o more_o than_o this_o as_o god_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o create_v any_o so_o neither_o can_v any_o thing_n save_o his_o own_o will_n bind_v he_o to_o preserve_v any_o thing_n in_o be_v but_o as_o he_o deal_v with_o other_o creature_n so_o can_v he_o deal_v with_o man_n even_o take_v their_o temporal_a be_v from_o they_o without_o any_o purpose_n ever_o to_o restore_v it_o and_o not_o only_o the_o be_v of_o their_o body_n but_o of_o their_o soul_n also_o turn_v both_o into_o nothing_o yet_o thus_o can_v god_n deal_v with_o man_n and_o angel_n be_v they_o never_o so_o innocent_a never_o so_o holy_a as_o arminius_n confess_v but_o let_v we_o consider_v the_o reason_n whereupon_o you_o ground_n this_o now_o these_o be_v two_o the_o one_o because_o god_n have_v create_v our_o nature_n now_o the_o unsoundnesse_n of_o this_o reason_n appear_v by_o this_o that_o god_n have_v create_v other_o thing_n as_o well_o as_o man_n yet_o who_o will_v conclude_v herehence_a that_o god_n must_v needs_o preserve_v they_o and_o not_o exclude_v they_o from_o this_o fruit_n of_o his_o love_n your_o other_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n can_v change_v and_o this_o be_v as_o weak_a as_o the_o former_a for_o like_a as_o god_n though_o at_o one_o time_n he_o give_v we_o life_n another_o time_n take_v life_n from_o we_o yet_o all_o this_o be_v do_v by_o he_o without_o any_o change_n in_o himself_o like_v as_o in_o course_n of_o nature_n though_o he_o cause_v change_n and_o alteration_n in_o the_o season_n of_o the_o year_n in_o the_o wether_n in_o the_o heaven_n in_o the_o earth_n in_o the_o sea_n in_o the_o state_n and_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n and_o in_o the_o body_n of_o all_o creature_n yet_o without_o any_o change_n at_o all_o in_o himself_o yea_o though_o he_o set_v a_o end_n to_o this_o visible_a world_n this_o can_v infer_v no_o variableness_n in_o god_n so_o if_o he_o shall_v take_v all_o manner_n of_o be_v from_o man_n and_o angel_n and_o so_o exclude_v they_o from_o all_o fruit_n of_o his_o love_n yet_o shall_v all_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v without_o any_o shadow_n of_o change_n in_o god_n yet_o you_o have_v a_o three_o reason_n which_o be_v this_o love_n be_v the_o nature_n of_o god_n as_o creator_n you_o can_v not_o be_v ignorant_a that_o god_n do_v free_o create_v the_o world_n and_o therefore_o that_o it_o be_v not_o natural_a to_o god_n to_o create_v it_o therefore_o you_o say_v that_o love_n be_v the_o nature_n of_o god_n as_o creator_n the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n whereof_o i_o comprehend_v not_o and_o i_o have_v make_v it_o already_o appear_v that_o though_o god_n create_v a_o thing_n yet_o be_v he_o not_o thereby_o bind_v to_o preserve_v it_o any_o long_a than_o he_o see_v good_a and_o what_o other_o sense_n you_o imply_v when_o you_o say_v love_n be_v god_n nature_n as_o a_o creator_n i_o discern_v not_o you_o make_v creation_n to_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o god_n love_n it_o be_v very_o incongruous_a to_o say_v that_o this_o love_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o create_v any_o thing_n belong_v unto_o he_o as_o a_o creator_n but_o rather_o creation_n of_o thing_n belong_v unto_o he_o as_o he_o love_v they_o for_o fit_a it_o be_v that_o the_o effect_n shall_v be_v thus_o modify_v by_o the_o cause_n than_o the_o cause_n by_o the_o effect_n in_o denominate_v

to_o the_o limitation_n of_o this_o your_o proposition_n and_o that_o be_v this_o no_o part_n of_o our_o nature_n can_v be_v exclude_v from_o all_o fruit_n of_o his_o love_n until_o the_o sinister_a use_n of_o that_o contingency_n wherewith_o he_o endue_v it_o or_o the_o improvement_n of_o inclination_n natural_o bend_v unto_o evil_n come_v to_o that_o height_n as_o to_o imply_v a_o contradiction_n for_o infinite_a justice_n or_o equity_n to_o vouchsafe_v they_o any_o favour_n first_o touch_v your_o meaning_n in_o this_o then_o touch_v the_o manner_n how_o you_o express_v this_o

of_o their_o iniquity_n of_o this_o your_o opinion_n i_o have_v speak_v often_o i_o hope_v it_o shall_v be_v sufficient_a now_o to_o consider_v the_o reason_n whereupon_o you_o ground_n it_o and_o
