and_o 1._o i_o argue_v thus_o if_o it_o be_v no_o injustice_n in_o god_n to_o oblige_v man_n to_o punishment_n for_o all_o christ_n satisfaction_n than_o it_o be_v no_o injustice_n actual_o to_o punish_v man_n for_o all_o christ_n satisfaction_n but_o the_o former_a be_v true_a therefore_o so_o be_v the_o latter_a first_o i_o will_v prove_v the_o consequence_n of_o the_o major_a proposition_n thus_o from_o the_o essential_a office_n of_o the_o law_n 1._o the_o law_n be_v juris_fw-la constitutiva_fw-la vel_fw-la saltem_fw-la declarativa_fw-la it_o constitute_v right_o or_o at_o least_o

from_o eternity_n before_o there_o be_v any_o law_n or_o at_o least_o before_o that_o which_o we_o say_v oblige_v sinner_n to_o punishment_n though_o indeed_o the_o law_n do_v constitute_v before_o it_o declare_v and_o so_o the_o law_n be_v regula_n jussiti●_n vel_fw-la saltem_fw-la regula_fw-la justa_fw-la and_o if_o so_o then_o to_o execute_v such_o a_o law_n can_v be_v no_o injustice_n 2._o the_o law_n be_v norma_n judicii_fw-la that_o be_v past_a question_n i_o speak_v of_o a_o law_n in_o force_n and_o as_o to_o the_o subject_n to_o who_o it_o be_v in_o force_n and_o if_o so_o than_o it_o can_v be_v no_o injustice_n to_o execute_v it_o but_o i_o think_v few_o sober_a man_n will_v deny_v the_o major_n and_o therefore_o i_o leave_v that_o and_o one_o will_v think_v none_o shall_v doubt_v of_o the_o minor_a whether_o it_o be_v any_o injustice_n in_o god_n by_o his_o law_n to_o oblige_v to_o punishment_n those_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o but_o because_o the_o antinomian_o deny_v it_o let_v we_o prove_v it_o if_o god_n do_v de_fw-fr facto_fw-la oblige_v to_o punishment_n those_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v than_o it_o be_v no_o injustice_n so_o to_o do_v but_o god_n do_v so_o actual_o ergo_fw-la etc._n etc._n i_o hope_v if_o we_o prove_v that_o god_n do_v it_o none_o dare_v say_v it_o be_v unjust_a if_o he_o be_v not_o just_o he_o be_v not_o god_n and_o that_o god_n do_v it_o i_o prove_v thus_o 1._o those_o that_o god_n hate_v and_o be_v child_n of_o wrath_n and_o without_o hope_n and_o without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n and_o stranger_n to_o the_o covenant_n of_o promise_n and_o alien_n to_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o israel_n etc._n etc._n be_v certain_o oblige_v to_o punishment_n but_o such_o many_o have_v be_v and_o still_o be_v for_o who_o christ_n
