1Unto the love of God in the defect, are repugnant, §12The casting away of Gods love, or, the contempt and hatred of God, which is through the alienation of our nature from God and Gods justice, and by reason of an inclination thereof to sin, therefore to flee and shun God accusing and punishing sin, and to fret against him. Of this sin it is said;3 The wisdom of the flesh is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the Law of God, neither indeed can be. §24Inordinate love of himself and other creatures, which is, to prefer his lusts, or pleasures, or life, or glory, or any other thing before God, and his will, and glory, and to be willing rather to neglect and offend him,5 then to part from those things which we love: He that loveth Father or Mother more then me, is not worthy of me. §36A feigned love of God, whereby also we may here offend. But here we cannot offend in the excess, because we never love God so much as we should.
