this_o be_v a_o mere_a dore_a delusion_n and_o for_o ever_o to_o be_v abhor_v for_o unless_o we_o yield_v it_o that_o christ_n do_v suffer_v these_o real_o we_o shake_v off_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o

without_o the_o least_o suspicion_n of_o sin_n in_o our_o saviour_n therefore_o evermore_o maintain_v a_o holy_a reverence_n and_o a_o holy_a regard_n of_o the_o action_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o

now_o christ_n do_v suffer_v punishment_n in_o his_o soul_n but_o not_o so_o farreâ—_n they_o come_v for_o his_o own_o sin_n the_o cause_n from_o within_o be_v sinful_a and_o detestable_a but_o the_o

the_o desperation_n of_o a_o damn_a soul_n in_o hell_n and_o the_o eternity_n of_o torment_n they_o be_v no_o essential_o of_o the_o second_o death_n and_o therefore_o they_o can_v not_o nor_o ought_v

in_o soul_n than_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v three_o and_o they_o be_v all_o of_o special_a use_n reason_n 1_o first_o it_o be_v take_v from_o the_o divine_a justice_n of_o god_n which_o require_v this_o by_o way_n of_o satisfaction_n as_o be_v only_o surable_a and_o agreeable_a to_o the_o divine_a justice_n of_o god_n by_o reason_n of_o sin_n whereby_o adam_n have_v entrench_v upon_o the_o

it_o be_v commit_v against_o a_o infinite_a majesty_n therefore_o that_o divine_a justice_n may_v not_o be_v a_o loser_n there_o must_v be_v a_o punishment_n not_o only_o corporal_a but_o also_o spiritual_a for_o justice_n abate_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o the_o satisfaction_n god_n be_v just_a and_o this_o be_v justice_n to_o give_v every_o one_o his_o due_a honour_n to_o who_o honour_n belong_v and_o punishment_n to_o who_o punishment_n belong_v therefore_o that_o justice_n may_v be_v preserve_v she_o must_v inflict_v these_o punishment_n upon_o our_o saviour_n be_v in_o our_o room_n the_o jesuit_n have_v devise_v a_o cavil_n against_o this_o reason_n say_v they_o it_o need_v not_o that_o christ_n shall_v suffer_v these_o for_o the_o dignity_n of_o the_o person_n of_o our_o

that_o this_o conceit_n of_o they_o be_v a_o thing_n marvellous_a injurious_a to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o to_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n i_o prove_v it_o thus_o for_o by_o the_o same_o right_n that_o the_o dignity_n of_o the_o person_n of_o our_o
hell_n and_o condemnation_n every_o believe_a soul_n of_o you_o do_v not_o think_v that_o god_n will_v pass_v by_o poor_a little_a one_o no_o he_o will_v not_o lose_v one_o of_o you_o but_o he_o will_v in_o his_o appoint_a time_n help_v and_o deliver_v you_o therefore_o be_v not_o trouble_v not_o dismay_v but_o resolve_v of_o this_o and_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v deliver_v therefore_o let_v my_o soul_n be_v for_o ever_o cheer_v what_o will_v you_o have_v and_o what_o do_v you_o fear_v be_v it_o your_o sin_n do_v you_o think_v that_o they_o bear_v you_o a_o old_a grudge_n and_o they_o will_v be_v clamour_v up_o to_o heaven_n against_o you_o and_o complain_v of_o you_o at_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n do_v you_o fear_v they_o so_o you_o may_v just_o because_o of_o that_o secret_a slide_n off_o from_o the_o truth_n oh_o say_v thou_o my_o errand_n be_v do_v in_o heaven_n before_o this_o time_n and_o my_o sin_n knock_v at_o heaven_n gate_n and_o say_v justice_z lord_z i_o have_v
