It is an high offence to intimate any thing which doth in the least intrench upon the Justice, and righteousness of God.
To say, God hath taken away our judgement, may call down judgements; To say, we are wounded without transgression, is a great transgression; and the reason, why it is so, is plain, because such sayings, tell the world, that we suffer, if not quite without desert, yet more then we deserve; and what is this but to justify our selves, and lay blame upon God, then which (as was showed at the 2d verse of the 32d Chapter) nothing is more derogatory to God, or more blame-worthy in man.
To say, God hath taken away our judgement, may call downe judgements; To say, we are wounded without transgression, is a great transgression; and the reason, why it is so, is plaine, because such sayings, tell the world, that we suffer, if not quite without desert, yet more then we deserve; and what is this but to justifie our selves, and lay blame upon God, then which (as was shewed at the 2d verse of the 32d Chapter) nothing is more derogatory to God, or more blame-worthy in man.
