yet_o he_o be_v a_o free_a agent_n and_o bestow_v grace_n on_o who_o he_o please_v and_o therefore_o we_o see_v that_o godly_a parent_n sometime_o have_v wicked_a child_n and_o wicked_a parent_n have_v godly_a child_n ephes_n 1.5_o have_v predestinate_v we_o to_o the_o adoption_n of_o child_n by_o jesus_n christ_n according_a to_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n the_o will_n and_o

busy_a with_o such_o he_o see_v your_o parent_n use_v diligence_n to_o save_v you_o and_o see_v you_o be_v near_a heaven_n therefore_o he_o will_v bestir_v himself_o and_o use_v all_o mean_n to_o make_v you_o miscarry_v and_o he_o be_v a_o cunning_a adversary_n therefore_o it_o concern_v you_o to_o be_v careful_a the_o six_o reason_n such_o child_n shall_v take_v care_n to_o get_v unfeigned_a

and_o use_v to_o ordinance_n satan_n persuade_v they_o they_o be_v well_o and_o make_v they_o rest_n in_o a_o form_n of_o godliness_n without_o the_o power_n of_o it_o therefore_o let_v all_o such_o take_v care_n and_o not_o trust_v in_o the_o goodness_n of_o their_o parent_n nor_o outward_a profession_n but_o get_v a_o unfeigned_a faith_n yourselves_o use_v if_o the_o child_n of_o godly_a

how_o many_o such_o be_v there_o if_o there_o be_v any_o weakness_n in_o their_o parent_n they_o will_v imitate_v they_o in_o that_o but_o never_o look_v after_o their_o good_a they_o slight_v the_o mercy_n of_o have_v good_a parent_n as_o if_o it_o be_v of_o no_o value_n have_v god_n give_v you_o these_o mercy_n and_o will_v you_o abuse_v they_o be_v you_o so_o fair_a for_o heaven_n and_o will_v
