A97232	Chonoyterion he Sion. The refinement of Zion: or, The old orthodox Protestant doctrine justified, and defended against several exceptions of the Antinomians, methodically digested into questions, wherein many weighty and important cases of conscience are handled, concerning the nature of faith and repentance, or conversion to God: of his eternal love, and beholding of sin in his dearest children: of justification from eternity, of of [sic] preparations to the acceptance of Christ, of prayer for pardon of sin, and turning to God: of the gospel covenant, aud [sic] tenders of salvation, on the termes of faith and repentance. For the establishment of the scrupulous, conviction of the erroneous, and consolation of distressed consciences. By Anthony Warton, minister of the word at Breamore in Hampshire.

of_o thy_o justice_n 6.1_o psal_n 6.1_o unless_o we_o shall_v say_v as_o zanchius_n and_o polanus_fw-la do_v that_o he_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v not_o execute_v the_o threaten_n of_o his_o word_n

of_o this_o question_n do_v intend_v to_o charge_v we_o with_o but_o hereunto_o i_o answer_v brief_o that_o god_n wrath_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v appease_v two_o manner_n of_o way_n 1._o

fast_v and_o weep_v and_o afflict_v of_o themselves_o with_o any_o such_o penal_a work_n or_o suffering_n do_v take_v upon_o they_o christ_n office_n and_o rob_v he_o of_o his_o glory_n but_o the_o

for_o christ_n sake_n who_o have_v merit_v pardon_n for_o such_o as_o 5.9_o as_o heb._n 5.9_o obey_v he_o in_o do_v the_o thing_n which_o he_o require_v to_o who_o therefore_o god_n have_v promise_v
