we_o account_v it_o unlawful_a to_o seek_v any_o cause_n of_o his_o will_n either_o out_o of_o he_o or_o above_o he_o and_o so_o we_o hold_v his_o goodness_n to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o will_v have_v do_v whereupon_o we_o do_v just_o condemn_v the_o old_a pellagian_o and_o the_o half_a pellagian_o of_o our_o age_n to_o wit_n the_o papist_n who_o babble_n that_o god_n be_v

and_o evil_a do_v come_v to_o pass_v at_o the_o appointment_n thereof_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o whereas_o god_n be_v most_o good_a so_o his_o will_n be_v most_o upright_o and_o the_o rule_n of_o all_o justice_n so_o as_o it_o can_v not_o command_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_a now_o although_o in_o christ_n god_n and_o man_n there_o be_v a_o double_a will_n his_o divine_a will_n be_v yet_o so_o

in_o christ_n this_o ground_n be_v lay_v we_o affirm_v that_o grace_n and_o merit_n of_o work_n can_v in_o no_o wise_a stand_v together_o 7_o the_o love_n that_o be_v in_o god_n be_v no_o passion_n

any_o perturbation_n but_o in_o asmuch_o as_o he_o repell_v misery_n from_o those_o who_o he_o love_v and_o although_o among_o man_n mercy_n seem_v to_o be_v oppose_v unto_o judgement_n as_o a_o thing_n that_o can_v not_o stand_v with_o it_o yet_o in_o god_n these_o two_o do_v very_o well_o agree_v see_v mercy_n be_v not_o contrary_a unto_o judgement_n but_o justice_n be_v as_o it_o be_v

which_o he_o have_v wonderful_o create_v so_o that_o the_o say_a providence_n incessant_o work_v by_o a_o perpetual_a and_o a_o immutable_a disposition_n and_o administration_n of_o all_o thing_n neither_o faint_a nor_o weary_v and_o be_v of_o itself_o immutable_a do_v move_v all_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v two_o for_o god_n do_v so_o respect_v all_o creature_n in_o general_a as_o he_o do_v

all_o in_o all_o thing_n 1_o wherefore_o we_o do_v condemn_v all_o ungodlie_a epicure_n who_o dream_n of_o a_o certain_a idle_a and_o dainty_a god_n that_o neither_o regard_v his_o own_o nor_o yet_o

〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d debt_n which_o the_o syrian_n call_v chibah_n do_v teach_v we_o that_o all_o our_o sin_n which_o be_v here_o figurativelie_o and_o according_a to_o the_o propriety_n of_o the_o syrian_a

that_o their_o sin_n be_v not_o whole_o do_v away_o by_o christ_n only_o 8_o we_o christ_n will_v have_v we_o to_o use_v this_o word_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v learn_v not_o only_o to_o be_v careful_a of_o our_o own_o salvation_n but_o also_o of_o our_o brethren_n and_o this_o be_v true_a love_n which_o be_v so_o much_o commend_v unto_o us._n 9_o in_o the_o other_o part_n of_o this_o petition_n we_o be_v teach_v what_o our_o duty_n be_v 10_o namely_o that_o follow_v the_o example_n of_o our_o most_o merciful_a father_n we_o shall_v true_o forgive_v all_o trespass_n unto_o those_o that_o have_v offend_v we_o which_o be_v one_o of_o the_o special_a effect_n of_o true_a love_n 11_o now_o this_o second_o part_n be_v add_v that_o we_o may_v right_o crave_v the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o so_o may_v come_v unto_o prayer_n with_o true_a faith_n and_o repentance_n the_o mark_n whereof_o be_v love_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n 12_o neither_o be_v we_o bind_v only_o to_o forgive_v those_o that_o have_v offend_v we_o but_o even_o to_o love_v they_o no_o less_o than_o ourselves_o 13_o the_o word_n as_o do_v not_o paint_v out_o the_o cause_n degree_n or_o aequalitie_n of_o the_o forgive_n proceed_v from_o we_o with_o the_o remission_n which_o we_o crave_v at_o god_n hand_n but_o it_o set_v down_o the_o resemblance_n thereof_o after_o a_o sort_n and_o our_o

that_o we_o have_v forgive_v our_o neighbour_n and_o that_o we_o be_v void_a of_o all_o hatred_n envy_n and_o revenge_n 15_o now_o we_o forgive_v our_o neighbour_n their_o sin_n as_o far_o as_o they_o concern_v we_o and_o not_o in_o regard_n that_o they_o have_v offend_v god_n who_o he_o especial_o offend_v whosoever_o he_o be_v that_o trespass_v against_o his_o neighbour_n 16_o whosoever_o then_o

that_o god_n will_v not_o remit_v he_o his_o sin_n but_o to_o take_v punishment_n of_o they_o 17_o yet_o be_v it_o lawful_a for_o a_o christian_a to_o seek_v redress_n by_o the_o magistrate_n of_o the_o injury_n that_o be_v do_v unto_o he_o both_o that_o thereby_o the_o society_n of_o man_n may_v be_v preserve_v and_o that_o lewd_a man_n be_v not_o encourage_v to_o abuse_v the_o patience_n of_o

the_o spirit_n whereby_o we_o may_v be_v daily_o enable_v to_o stand_v against_o all_o temptation_n 2_o for_o although_o our_o sin_n be_v forgive_v we_o yet_o be_v we_o never_o so_o clear_v of_o

either_o for_o the_o punish_n of_o sin_n with_o sin_n or_o for_o the_o chastisement_n of_o his_o child_n 7_o now_o the_o lord_n be_v say_v to_o lead_v those_o into_o temptation_n who_o in_o his_o

the_o misery_n of_o the_o life_n present_a and_o death_n eternal_a 4_o now_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v the_o free_a and_o the_o most_o full_a pardon_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n obtain_v by_o christ_n
