the_o complaint_n of_o a_o humble_a and_o repent_a people_n isai_n 63.17_o but_o these_o be_v quite_o of_o another_o strain_n to_o this_o the_o sum_n of_o the_o lord_n answer_n be_v that_o they_o be_v the_o author_n of_o their_o own_o woe_n he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o take_v pleasure_n in_o their_o undeserved_a suffering_n that_o will_v they_o be_v righteous_a they_o shall_v be_v free_a from_o

upon_o supposal_n of_o the_o former_a doctrine_n either_o to_o accuse_v god_n or_o excuse_v man_n object_n 1._o say_v they_o according_a to_o this_o doctrine_n of_o reprobation_n god_n must_v be_v the_o author_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o be_v guilty_a of_o sin_n and_o this_o they_o urge_v upon_o three_o ground_n especial_o 1._o in_o that_o he_o decree_v it_o thence_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o man_n sin_v 2._o in_o that_o he_o act_n in_o it_o produce_v as_o the_o first_o cause_n those_o act_n in_o and_o by_o man_n to_o which_o sin_n cleave_v inseparable_o 3._o that_o unto_o adam_n he_o

of_o this_o objection_n be_v own_v by_o this_o doctrine_n but_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o objection_n be_v deny_v as_o have_v here_o no_o foot_n 1._o for_o the_o decree_n 1._o that_o god_n decree_v that_o sin_n shall_v be_v have_v former_o be_v prove_v but_o that_o hence_o he_o can_v be_v conclude_v the_o author_n of_o sin_n be_v evident_a because_o the_o decree_n as_o such_o be_v a_o act_n immanent_a in_o himself_o not_o immanent_a upon_o the_o creature_n it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o immanent_a act_n to_o put_v nothing_o in_o the_o object_n 2._o there_o be_v upon_o the_o decree_n of_o god_n a_o necessity_n of_o man_n sin_n as_o 15._o as_o lib._n 6_o de_fw-fr genes_n ad_fw-la literam_fw-la c._n 15._o austin_n say_v well_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v the_o necessity_n of_o thing_n but_o 1._o it_o be_v a_o necessity_n not_o absolute_a but_o upon_o supposal_n or_o conditional_a not_o of_o compulsion_n but_o of_o consecution_n for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n have_v so_o decree_v it_o can_v otherwise_o come_v to_o pass_v but_o man_n shall_v sin_v yet_o do_v he_o sin_n free_o choose_v so_o to_o do_v act_v neither_o by_o constraint_n nor_o from_o a_o principle_n of_o natural_a necessity_n but_o of_o this_o we_o shall_v speak_v more_o in_o answer_n to_o the_o three_o objection_n which_o charge_v this_o necessity_n as_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o essential_a liberty_n of_o man_n will_n 2._o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o the_o same_o kind_n for_o man_n sin_v if_o we_o grant_v that_o god_n foreknows_a his_o sin_n if_o god_n foreknows_a that_o man_n shall_v sin_n then_o must_v it_o need_v so_o come_v to_o pass_v otherwise_o god_n foreknows_a that_o shall_v be_v which_o shall_v not_o be_v but_o this_o clear_o involve_v a_o contradiction_n we_o must_v then_o either_o grant_v a_o conditional_a necessity_n of_o man_n sin_v or_o deny_v god_n prescience_n 3._o upon_o supposal_n
