his_o word_n our_o heavenly_a father_n i_o say_v do_v not_o adopt_v any_o in_o christ_n jesus_n to_o be_v his_o son_n and_o daughter_n and_o then_o leave_v they_o to_o themselves_o to_o be_v guide_v or_o rather_o beguile_v by_o the_o counsel_n of_o their_o own_o heart_n nor_o by_o custom_n nor_o by_o worldly_a reason_n nor_o by_o the_o example_n of_o their_o forefather_n in_o any_o thing_n whether_o it_o concern_v this_o life_n or_o the_o life_n to_o come_v for_o then_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o the_o elect_a and_o the_o reprobate_n who_o god_n have_v deliver_v up_o unto_o a_o reprobate_a mind_n to_o do_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o convenient_a because_o they_o regard_v not_o 28._o to_o know_v god_n but_o the_o lord_n will_v instruct_v his_o child_n in_o the_o way_n which_o he_o have_v 8._o appoint_v for_o they_o and_o will_v guide_v they_o with_o his_o eye_n yea_o with_o his_o counsel_n he_o will_v guide_v they_o and_o afterward_o receive_v they_o to_o glory_n and_o therefore_o will_v he_o 24_o guide_v they_o with_o his_o counsel_n that_o he_o may_v receive_v they_o into_o glory_n because_o ordinary_o no_o man_n be_v glorify_v in_o heaven_n that_o be_v not_o first_o sanctify_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n upon_o earth_n therefore_o do_v 17._o the_o prophet_n david_n call_v the_o word_n of_o god_n a_o lantern_n to_o his_o foot_n and_o a_o light_n unto_o his_o 119._o path_n as_o if_o the_o lord_n shall_v go_v before_o his_o child_n with_o a_o candle_n and_o a_o lantern_n to_o guide_v their_o foot_n into_o the_o way_n of_o peace_n to_o teach_v we_o that_o if_o we_o be_v as_o wise_a and_o as_o holy_a as_o david_n be_v yet_o without_o the_o discretion_n of_o god_n word_n we_o do_v but_o grope_v in_o the_o dark_a like_o the_o man_n of_o sodom_n 9_o and_o go_v we_o can_v tell_v whither_o like_o the_o man_n of_o samaria_n in_o another_o place_n he_o call_v the_o statute_n of_o the_o lord_n his_o 119._o counsellor_n as_o if_o he_o know_v not_o what_o to_o do_v without_o they_o and_o sure_o so_o it_o be_v for_o in_o another_o place_n when_o he_o be_v rule_v by_o his_o own_o heart_n &_o affection_n he_o say_v that_o he_o play_v both_o the_o fool_n &_o the_o beast_n until_o he_o go_v to_o school_v in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n where_o he_o learn_v that_o holy_a wisdom_n which_o he_o have_v not_o before_o so_o that_o this_o point_n be_v manifest_a and_o plain_a that_o god_n do_v not_o leave_v his_o child_n to_o themselves_o in_o any_o thing_n but_o as_o a_o most_o merciful_a father_n do_v teach_v and_o instruct_v they_o by_o his_o word_n and_o spirit_n and_o therefore_o who_o soever_o shall_v either_o refuse_v to_o be_v order_v by_o the_o same_o or_o shall_v prefer_v his_o own_o wisdom_n or_o any_o man_n work_n before_o it_o or_o compare_v they_o with_o it_o may_v just_o suspect_v himself_o to_o be_v none_o of_o god_n child_n until_o he_o repent_v for_o the_o child_n of_o god_n know_v their_o own_o ignorance_n &_o weakness_n every_o manner_n of_o way_n be_v glad_a to_o be_v counsel_v by_o their_o heavenly_a father_n but_o what_o have_v the_o lord_n take_v order_n for_o suertiship_n and_o all_o other_o of_o our_o worldly_a business_n and_o have_v he_o not_o likewise_o take_v order_n for_o his_o own_o business_n will_v he_o not_o leave_v we_o to_o ourselves_o in_o the_o lesser_a thing_n &_o will_v he_o leave_v we_o to_o ourselves_o in_o great_a matter_n will_v he_o not_o let_v we_o serve_v one_o another_o otherwise_o then_o himself_o have_v appoint_v and_o will_v he_o be_v content_a that_o we_o shall_v serve_v his_o majesty_n otherwise_o than_o he_o have_v appoint_v himself_o will_v he_o give_v a_o pattern_n and_o direction_n to_o his_o people_n for_o make_v of_o the_o tabernacle_n and_o build_v of_o the_o temple_n to_o that_o end_n that_o they_o may_v do_v every_o thing_n or_o any_o thing_n thereunto_o belong_v as_o they_o list_v no_o sure_o and_o therefore_o he_o himself_o set_v down_o a_o order_n for_o the_o very_a vessel_n for_o the_o ashe-panne_n the_o besom_n the_o flesh-hook_n yea_o and_o every_o pin_n about_o the_o work_n beyond_o which_o pattern_n they_o may_v not_o go_v much_o less_o have_v he_o leave_v his_o worship_n under_o the_o gospel_n unto_o our_o discretion_n and_o he_o that_o be_v so_o careful_a as_o that_o he_o will_v not_o leave_v man_n to_o themselves_o and_o to_o their_o own_o devise_n in_o matter_n of_o suertiship_n &_o affair_n of_o the_o world_n sure_o he_o will_v never_o be_v so_o careless_a as_o to_o leave_v man_n to_o themselves_o in_o the_o order_n and_o govern_v of_o his_o church_n to_o conclude_v he_o that_o have_v in_o his_o word_n set_v down_o order_n for_o oeconomical_a matter_n no_o doubt_n but_o he_o have_v also_o in_o his_o word_n set_v down_o order_n for_o ecclesiastical_a matter_n for_o see_v as_o he_o will_v not_o allow_v man_n to_o have_v more_o care_n for_o the_o order_n of_o other_o man_n house_n then_o their_o own_o far_o be_v it_o from_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v think_v so_o of_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o will_v have_v great_a care_n for_o the_o order_n of_o our_o house_n then_o for_o the_o government_n of_o his_o own_o house_n which_o be_v his_o church_n but_o as_o we_o find_v certain_a rule_n and_o perpetual_a direction_n for_o the_o one_o so_o shall_v we_o find_v in_o the_o same_o book_n most_o certain_a rule_n and_o perpetual_a instruction_n for_o the_o other_o if_o we_o do_v not_o put_v some_o thing_n before_o our_o eye_n and_o say_v we_o can_v see_v and_o so_o much_o for_o this_o 3._o point_n now_o we_o will_v come_v to_o the_o matter_n of_o suertiship_n itself_o my_o son_n if_o thou_o be_v surety_n for_o thy_o neighbour_n etc._n etc._n concern_v suertiship_n we_o will_v consider_v upon_o this_o text_n of_o vi_o point_n 1._o what_o suertiship_n be_v 2._o how_o many_o sort_n of_o surety_n there_o be_v 3._o whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o christian_n to_o become_v surety_n one_o for_o another_o 4._o how_o man_n in_o salomon_n time_n become_v surety_n 5._o how_o man_n be_v hinder_v by_o suertiship_n 6._o we_o will_v see_v what_o counsel_n god_n give_v unto_o surety_n for_o their_o safety_n as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n to_o become_v surety_n a_o surety_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o by_o word_n or_o writing_n or_o by_o pledge_n to_o make_v another_o sure_a so_o far_o as_o man_n can_v of_o that_o which_o before_o he_o be_v not_o sure_a of_o or_o to_o put_v a_o man_n out_o of_o doubt_n so_o far_o as_o law_n and_o equity_n will_v require_v for_o the_o receive_n or_o enjoy_v or_o recover_v of_o some_o thing_n whereof_o he_o stand_v in_o doubt_n before_o &_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v security_n i_o reckon_v pledge_n amongst_o surety_n because_o a_o pledge_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o surety_n for_o if_o the_o principal_a do_v fail_v the_o surety_n must_v answer_v the_o debt_n but_o when_o surety_n can_v be_v get_v than_o man_n lay_v somewhat_o to_o pledge_v that_o be_v better_a or_o as_o good_a as_o the_o debt_n come_v unto_o and_o if_o the_o party_n fail_v the_o pledge_n must_v answer_v the_o debt_n sometime_o a_o pledge_n be_v lay_v because_o the_o thing_n be_v so_o small_a that_o one_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o have_v his_o friend_n come_v in_o band_n or_o give_v his_o word_n for_o the_o same_o and_o yet_o that_o which_o be_v but_o a_o small_a matter_n amongst_o rich_a man_n may_v be_v a_o great_a matter_n amongst_o poor_a man_n and_o sometime_o pledge_n be_v use_v in_o thing_n unlawful_a &_o dishonest_a &_o that_o be_v when_o man_n do_v promise_v a_o thing_n upon_o such_o condition_n as_o they_o be_v ashamed_a to_o make_v know_v unto_o any_o as_o judah_n promise_v his_o daughter_n in_o law_n thamar_n a_o kid_n of_o the_o goat_n upon_o condition_n that_o he_o may_v lie_v with_o she_o but_o he_o know_v she_o not_o well_o say_v thamar_n if_o thou_o will_v give_v i_o a_o pledge_n till_o 18._o thou_o send_v it_o that_o be_v if_o thou_o will_v put_v i_o in_o good_a security_n and_o that_o must_v be_v by_o some_o pledge_n at_o this_o time_n so_o he_o give_v she_o his_o signet_n his_o cloak_n and_o his_o stasse_fw-la for_o a_o pledge_n that_o if_o the_o kid_n come_v not_o they_o must_v answer_v the_o matter_n and_o this_o be_v such_o a_o matter_n that_o when_o she_o be_v go_v judah_n be_v ashamed_a to_o send_v after_o she_o for_o his_o pledge_n he_o have_v rather_o loose_v it_o then_o to_o recover_v it_o with_o so_o much_o infamy_n as_o he_o be_v sure_a will_v ensue_v the_o end_n of_o suertiship_n and_o pledge_n etc._n etc._n be_v that_o all_o man_n may_v have_v their_o own_o without_o which_o no_o trade_n nor_o traffic_n nor_o

wherein_o surety_n be_v teach_v to_o fly_v such_o discommodity_n and_o annoyaunce_n as_o common_o come_v to_o surety_n by_o undiscretenesse_n and_o rashness_n and_o it_o may_v be_v call_v the_o surety_n text_n because_o it_o provide_v for_o the_o security_n of_o surety_n as_o surety_n provide_v for_o the_o security_n of_o other_o wherein_o almighty_a god_n give_v counsel_n unto_o surety_n as_o unto_o his_o child_n which_o if_o they_o follow_v then_o be_v they_o sure_a to_o stand_v when_o other_o be_v like_a to_o fall_v therefore_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v to_o timothy_n in_o a_o other_o case_n take_v heed_n to_o thyself_o &_o to_o learning_n and_o continue_v therein_o for_o in_o so_o 16._o do_v thou_o shall_v save_v thyself_o &_o they_o that_o hear_v thou_o so_o i_o say_v to_o

that_o be_v open_a to_o the_o weather_n a_o little_a puff_n of_o wind_n or_o one_o drop_n of_o rain_n shall_v put_v it_o out_o that_o it_o can_v neither_o give_v light_n to_o other_o nor_o to_o itself_o so_o he_o to_o who_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v a_o lantern_n &_o a_o light_n shall_v help_v himself_o and_o other_o when_o he_o 119._o that_o venture_v without_o it_o shall_v put_v out_o his_o own_o light_n and_o the_o light_n of_o other_o also_o here_o therefore_o the_o lord_n do_v teach_v man_n to_o avoid_v such_o discommodity_n and_o annoyance_n as_o many_o through_o rashness_n and_o for_o want_v of_o discretion_n do_v fall_v into_o for_o the_o lord_n people_n must_v be_v a_o wise_a people_n and_o god_n will_v not_o have_v thou_o to_o help_v thy_o neighbour_n without_o any_o

in_o the_o same_o word_n be_v condemn_v for_o this_o end_n and_o purpose_n it_o have_v please_v the_o lord_n that_o dwell_v in_o the_o heaven_n to_o stoop_v down_o so_o low_a as_o to_o take_v order_n for_o our_o business_n here_o upon_o earth_n that_o we_o follow_v his_o order_n it_o may_v go_v well_o with_o we_o and_o our_o child_n for_o ever_o and_o this_o counsel_n concern_v surety_n though_o it_o be_v a_o economical_a thing_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o a_o base_a thing_n as_o some_o have_v think_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n to_o occupy_v himself_o in_o base_a matter_n but_o by_o this_o we_o
