Quest. Whither sin in dominion may befall a David, or regenerate person?
Quest. VVHither sin in dominion may befal a David, or regenerate person?
For the resolution of this question remember these particulars.1
- 1There is a difference betwixt a conquest by sin, and the dominion of it.
1. That there is a difference twixt peccatum vincens, and peccatum regnans, 'twixt a conquest by sin and the dominion of sin: A Conquest is when sin prevails: Dominion is when sin Rules: The Conquest respects power, Dominion respects the will; In Conquest the person resists, but his strength is too weak: In dominion the person yields up himself to the Will, and Law, and Power of another. Sin may overcome a Regenerate person, but it hath not dominion in him.
