Resp. You need not have mentioned the tending of this to Gods glory: your argument 1is in force, and greater force without it. For I hold, that to punish without supposition of sin implieth contradiction: paena being properly opposed to praemium, and as reward formally hath a respect to obedience going before, so hath punishment unto sin.

1. Now first to follow you in your own course, I reason thus; That which tends to Gods glory not simply, but only upon supposition of obedience in faith, repentance, and good works, cannot be intended by him simply, but upon that supposition; but to reward with salvation, and everlasting life, tends not to Gods glory simply, but only upon supposition of faith, repentance and good works. Ergo, it could ot be intended by God simply, but only upon faith and repentance.
