In "The True Bounds of Christian Freedom", Bolton writes about 'cavilers' who say "God does not afflict His people for sin, but chastises them from sin, and they add: the father does not give his child medicine to make him sick, but to take away bad humors, to prevent or remove diseases."

And again, "God, they say, may take occasion from sin to chastise His people, when yet their sin is not the cause of the chastisement."

I could use some help identifying who these 'cavilers' were, or at least what camp they were in.
