John3:6
Verſe 6. That which is born of the fleſh, &c.] Whole man is in evil, and whole evil in man. Quintilian ſaw not this; and therefore ſaid, that it is more marvell that one man ſinneth, then that all men ſhould live honeſtly; ſin is ſo much againſt mans nature. Many alſo of the moſt dangerous opinions of Popery (as juſtification by works, ſtate of perfection, merit, ſupererogation, &c) ſpring from hence; that they have ſleight conceits of concupifcence, as a condition of nature. Yet ſome of them (as Michael Bains profeſſour at Lovaine, &c.) are ſound in this point.
