we_o follow_v the_o commun_n interpretation_n it_o appear_v that_o the_o same_o fact_n be_v ascribe_v to_o god_n and_o satan_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v on_o a_o different_a account_n and_o

the_o sane_a thing_n concur_v which_o be_v before_o explicate_v of_o the_o same_o sense_n whereby_o god_n be_v say_v to_o incline_v to_o evil_a namely_o the_o permission_n and_o laxation_n of_o the_o reins_o to_o satan_n the_o oblation_n of_o occasion_n and_o irritament_n impediment_n be_v remove_v and_o the_o suspension_n of_o divine_a grace_n which_o thing_n concur_v with_o the_o pravitie_n of_o nature_n sin_n necessary_o follow_v 1_o we_o grant_v that_o the_o same_o fact_n be_v ascribe_v to_o god_n and_o satan_n on_o different_a account_n god_n put_v the_o thought_n entitative_o consider_v into_o david_n heart_n but_o satan_n stir_v up_o his_o heart_n to_o the_o act_n of_o number_v the_o people_n god_n in_o judgement_n give_v over_o david_n to_o this_o sin_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v at_o this_o time_n when_o god_n be_v angry_a with_o israel_n there_o be_v a_o special_a providence_n of_o god_n even_o in_o the_o ebullition_n of_o lust_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o own_o people_n thus_o also_o in_o the_o wicked_a who_o put_v that_o thought_n of_o murder_n consider_v material_o into_o the_o heart_n of_o esau_n when_o my_o father_n be_v dead_a i_o will_v slay_v my_o brother_n jacob_n be_v it_o not_o from_o god_n whence_o come_v that_o motion_n into_o the_o heart_n of_o judas_n to_o betray_v christ_n with_o all_o the_o circumstance_n material_o consider_v refer_v thereto_o be_v they_o not_o from_o god_n thus_o here_o god_n put_v the_o entitative_a thought_n of_o number_v the_o people_n into_o the_o heart_n of_o david_n albeit_o satan_n stir_v it_o up_o and_o god_n be_v the_o orderer_n albeit_o satan_n the_o abettor_n and_o in_o some_o sense_n the_o author_n of_o it_o for_o god_n be_v only_o the_o prime_a physic_n cause_n of_o the_o natural_a entity_n but_o satan_n the_o moral_a cause_n or_o author_n of_o the_o vitiositie_n again_o the_o concourse_n of_o god_n to_o the_o natural_a entitative_a act_n be_v immediate_a efficacious_a and_o predeterminative_a but_o satan_n concourse_n only_o mediate_v objective_n and_o suasive_a though_o with_o more_o or_o less_o degree_n of_o moral_a efficacitie_n as_o eph._n 2._o 2._o again_o 2_o we_o grant_v that_o the_o

number_v the_o people_n not_o to_o be_v in_o itself_o evil_a whence_o by_o a_o parity_n of_o reason_n we_o argue_v that_o no_o action_n though_o never_o so_o intrinsical_o evil_a be_v in_o itself_o i._n e._n as_o consider_v in_o its_o physic_n entitative_a act_n and_o according_a to_o its_o substrate_a mater_fw-la sinful_a for_o certain_o if_o david_n number_v the_o people_n which_o be_v a_o sin_n attend_v with_o so_o much_o pride_n vainglory_n and_o confidence_n in_o a_o arm_n of_o flesh_n with_o other_o aggravation_n which_o so_o great_o provoke_v god_n be_v not_o in_o itself_o evil_a no_o other_o sin_n consider_v in_o its_o mere_a entitative_a and_o physic_n act_n be_v such_o yea_o i_o as_o yet_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o this_o sin_n of_o david_n consider_v in_o its_o individual_a circumstance_n and_o moral_a relation_n to_o its_o object_n and_o principes_fw-la may_v not_o be_v estimed_a a_o sin_n intrinsical_o evil_a as_o well_o as_o shimei_n curse_v david_n but_o 4_o strangius_n summary_n conclusion_n that_o god_n concourse_n to_o david_n sin_n be_v only_o a_o idle_a permission_n laxation_n of_o the_o reins_o to_o satan_n and_o oblation_n of_o occasion_n with_o suspension_n of_o divine_a grace_n be_v very_a contradictory_n both_o to_o the_o letter_n and_o mind_n of_o the_o text_n which_o say_v positive_o that_o god_n move_v or_o excite_v and_o stir_v up_o the_o mind_n of_o david_n not_o moral_o but_o physic_o to_o the_o entitative_a act_n of_o number_v the_o people_n certain_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v so_o categoric_o and_o positive_o of_o god_n move_v the_o will_n to_o its_o act_n to_o restrain_v such_o move_a influence_n and_o causalitie_n only_o to_o mere_a idle_a permission_n or_o objective_a oblation_n of_o occasion_n or_o negative_a suspension_n of_o divine_a grace_n what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o make_v the_o scripture_n contradictory_n to_o itself_o or_o affirmation_n and_o negation_n applicable_a to_o the_o same_o word_n how_o easy_o may_v a_o atheist_n hence_o take_v advantage_n to_o elude_v all_o scripture_n but_o to_o pass_v on_o to_o other_o text_n that_o clear_o express_v god_n immediate_a predeterminative_a concourse_n to_o the_o substrate_a mater_fw-la of_o sinful_a act_n 1_o king_n 11._o 31._o the_o lord_n say_v i_o will_v rend_v the_o kingdom_n 24._o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o

natural_a act_n which_o have_v sin_n necessary_o appendent_a to_o they_o now_o let_v we_o examine_v what_o response_n strangius_n give_v hereto_o l._n 4._o c._n 4._o p._n 793._o reject_v the_o

yet_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n sufficient_o shine_v forth_o in_o the_o whole_a of_o this_o administration_n because_o god_n use_v both_o the_o king_n and_o people_n in_o this_o work_n only_o as_o instrument_n to_o execute_v his_o just_a judgement_n etc._n etc._n to_o give_v a_o brief_a reply_n hereto_o it_o be_v very_o evident_a that_o all_o that_o answer_n strangius_n have_v give_v we_o in_o answer_n to_o these_o text_n do_v but_o more_o confirm_v we_o in_o the_o true_a sense_n we_o give_v of_o they_o for_o 1_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o jeroboam_n and_o jehu_n with_o the_o revolter_n their_o adherent_n sin_v not_o only_o in_o the_o mode_n or_o manner_n but_o in_o the_o very_a substance_n of_o their_o act_n for_o be_v not_o high_a treason_n against_o a_o lawful_a king_n a_o act_n

jehu_n have_v private_a prophetic_a instruction_n and_o unction_n but_o yet_o those_o give_v they_o no_o real_a title_n before_o the_o people_n but_o only_o secret_a intimation_n what_o god_n will_v in_o his_o providence_n bring_v to_o pass_v david_n have_v a_o promise_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o also_o divine_a unction_n and_o yet_o he_o confess_v that_o god_n give_v he_o no_o actual_a title_n to_o the_o kingdom_n in_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n but_o he_o still_o own_v saul_n as_o his_o sovereign_n king_n and_o the_o lord_n anoint_v and_o so_o ought_v jeroboam_n and_o jehu_n their_o lawful_a
