how_o the_o want_n of_o love_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o many_o mischief_n in_o the_o world_n i_o only_o pray_v it_o may_v never_o be_v so_o with_o any_o christian_a soul_n that_o we_o make_v not_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n with_o all_o reverence_n be_v it_o speak_v as_o a_o packhorse_n to_o support_v our_o vile_a desire_n i_o be_o sure_a if_o there_o be_v more_o love_n and_o charity_n among_o christian_n less_o fault_n less_o error_n will_v appear_v to_o be_v in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n then_o now_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v 13._o 1_o cor._n 13._o for_o charity_n suffer_v all_o thing_n believe_v all_o thing_n and_o be_v ever_o willing_a to_o make_v fault_n and_o error_n lesser_a than_o they_o be_v whereas_o the_o want_n of_o love_n will_v make_v the_o worst_a of_o every_o thing_n every_o error_n to_o be_v a_o heresy_n and_o every_o infirmity_n to_o be_v heinous_a impiety_n nay_o want_v of_o love_n will_v make_v sin_n where_o god_n make_v none_o be_v we_o ought_v to_o love_v all_o man_n and_o to_o hate_v all_o vice_n in_o whosoever_o they_o be_v and_o make_v virtue_n to_o be_v vice_n whereas_o perfect_a charity_n will_v never_o hate_v the_o man_n though_o he_o be_v full_a of_o iniquity_n and_o therefore_o my_o conclusion_n of_o this_o point_n be_v that_o as_o christ_n have_v love_v we_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o we_o so_o let_v we_o love_n christ_n and_o love_v

i_o see_v neither_o place_n deny_v it_o for_o as_o here_o he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o he_o will_v eternal_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o his_o father_n sin_n so_o there_o he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o he_o will_v no_o way_n spiritual_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o the_o parent_n fault_n but_o as_o here_o his_o meaning_n be_v not_o that_o he_o will_v inflict_v any_o positive_a evil_n upon_o the_o son_n of_o the_o wicked_a for_o the_o wickedness_n of_o their_o parent_n but_o that_o for_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o parent_n he_o will_v shut_v his_o hand_n and_o withhold_v his_o grace_n from_o their_o child_n and_o so_o willing_o and_o just_o suffer_v they_o to_o commit_v the_o like_a or_o worse_a sin_n than_o their_o father_n do_v because_o we_o be_v all_o natural_o bear_v in_o sin_n

his_o meaning_n be_v not_o to_o deny_v the_o withhold_a of_o his_o grace_n from_o the_o child_n of_o the_o wicked_a which_o be_v all_o that_o here_o he_o threaten_v but_o that_o he_o will_v not_o

we_o to_o sin_n just_o inflict_v upon_o we_o for_o our_o father_n sin_n be_v a_o most_o lamentable_a and_o a_o most_o fearful_a thing_n because_o such_o child_n so_o just_o refuse_v to_o be_v help_v

and_o so_o you_o see_v how_o god_n visit_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n and_o yet_o punish_v every_o man_n but_o for_o his_o own_o sin_n the_o first_o he_o do_v by_o a_o

that_o then_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v swallow_v up_o and_o whole_o convert_v into_o the_o deity_n but_o this_o can_v be_v for_o that_o saint_n paul_n in_o this_o very_a

and_o that_o it_o signify_v not_o a_o servile_a subjection_n any_o way_n betoken_v a_o inferioritie_n but_o a_o unanimous_a agreement_n of_o the_o son_n with_o the_o father_n which_o show_v their_o

then_o also_o in_o that_o excellent_a glory_n when_o all_o thing_n be_v subdue_v unto_o it_o it_o shall_v be_v subject_a unto_o god_n and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v as_o some_o of_o the_o greek_a

many_o other_o objection_n they_o have_v against_o the_o deity_n coessentialitie_n and_o coequalitie_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n with_o his_o father_n but_o they_o be_v all_o so_o trivial_a that_o

blasphemy_n to_o think_v that_o he_o may_v thereby_o get_v he_o a_o name_n above_o all_o other_o name_n and_o this_o be_v his_o usual_a practice_n to_o seek_v always_o at_o the_o chief_a to_o
