CHAP. 12. Of Original sin.
CHAP. 12. Of Originall sinne.
Out of the former transgression ariseth another, namely Original sin, which is corruption engendered in our first conception, whereby every faculty of soul and body is prone and disposed to evil. Psal. 1.1. I was borne in iniquity, and in sin hath my mother conceived me. Gen. 6. 5. Tit. 33. We our selves were in times past unwise, disobedient, deceived, serving the lusts and diverse pleasures, living in maliciousness and envy, hateful, and hating one another. Hebr. 12.1. Let us cast away every thing that presseth down, and the sin that hangeth so fast on.
