Doctrinam, Leges, Judicia: And he glorifieth his Goodness and Love partly Antecedently (to mans Actions) and as a free Benefactor; partly consequently, according to the order of his Laws. So that as his Attributes are inseparable, so are (herein) the operations of them.

And between all these there is no repugnancy.
