CHAPTER XVII.
Of the Propagation of Sin. Thus much of the transgression. Now it follows to treat of the propagation of it.
Of the Propagation of Sinne. Thus much of the transgression. Now it followes to treat of the propagation of it.
1. This propagation, is that whereby the whole posterity of man, descending from Adam, in a natural manner, is made partaker of the same condition with him. Job 14. 5. Psal. 51. 7 Rom. 5. 44. Eph. 2. 3. This is come to pass by Gods just ordination. The equity whereof appeareth in some measure among men. 1. In natural right, whereby inbred qualities are derived from that which begetteth, to that which is begotten. 2. In hereditary right, whereby the burdens of parents are transferred upon their children. 3. In the right of like for like whereby the rejection of good, and suffering of evil are equally extended.
