The consequence of the major is proved, 1. From the purity of God's nature and of his Law, and from the nature of this corruption. This corruption is a disconformity to the holy nature, will and law of God, and that in his subjects: go. it is sin. The inclinations contrary to his holy nature and image, in a rational creature, must needs be abhorred of God, because they are such. And the fleshly mind, the body of death, is contrary to the Law. 2. These same corruptions which are born with us, remain in the ⟨p. 118⟩unsanctified (and partly in others) till they come to age, and then they are sin, (even the same degree that was born with us: for it is not only the degree that custom after superaddeth that is sin). Certainly that absence of good, and backwardness to it, and proneness to evil, is sin in the adult: go. it was sin before. For it was the same thing, and in a true subject, capable of vice and virtue. 3. The only Argument against it is vain; viz. from the involuntariness, as shall be showed.
