The Deity is good and more than good, and so is
His will. For that which God wishes is good. Moreover the
precept, which teaches this, is law, that we, holding by it, may walk
in light 1 St. John i.
7.: and
the transgression of this precept is sin, and this continues to exist
on account of the assault of the devil and our unconstrained and
voluntary reception of it Rom. vii. 23.. And
this, too, is called law Rom. vii. 25..
