as_o we_o read_v joshua_n his_o resolution_n i_o and_o my_o house_n will_v serve_v the_o lord_n we_o be_v resolve_v who_o ever_o depart_v from_o jehovah_n we_o will_v cleave_v unto_o he_o and_o as_o the_o disciple_n john_n 6._o when_o many_o forsake_v christ_n and_o the_o christian_a religion_n their_o lord_n say_v unto_o they_o and_o will_v you_o also_o go_v away_o peter_n answer_v in_o the_o

to_o make_v choice_n of_o the_o best_a now_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v of_o some_o religion_n we_o can_v live_v without_o god_n act_n 17.28_o in_o he_o we_o live_v move_v and_o have_v our_o being_n and_o be_v it_o not_o fit_a than_o we_o shall_v acknowledge_v god_n and_o worship_n he_o in_o the_o very_a frame_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n there_o be_v such_o principle_n of_o religion_n engrave_v in_o he_o that_o can_v be_v raze_v out_o that_o have_v teach_v the_o very_a heathen_n to_o worship_v a_o deity_n so_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v worse_o than_o heathen_n yea_o become_v very_a beast_n and_o below_o man_n if_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v of_o some_o religion_n beside_o it_o be_v the_o express_a command_n of_o god_n by_o his_o write_a law_n give_v to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n that_o they_o adore_v worship_n and_o serve_v he_o he_o expect_v it_o as_o a_o homage_n from_o they_o and_o will_v not_o loose_v his_o glory_n such_o atheist_n be_v accurse_v by_o he_o as_o cast_v off_o all_o religion_n &_o live_v without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n and_o though_o some_o such_o atheist_n have_v be_v find_v who_o in_o their_o prosperity_n forget_v god_n whilst_o they_o can_v better_o shift_v without_o he_o yet_o in_o their_o misery_n and_o danger_n they_o have_v be_v force_v to_o acknowledge_v god_n and_o call_v upon_o he_o as_o the_o mariner_n in_o the_o ship_n with_o jonah_n etc._n etc._n now_o if_o it_o be_v so_o be_v it_o not_o fit_a to_o choose_v the_o true_a god_n and_o the_o true_a religion_n 2._o there_o be_v many_o false_a religion_n in_o the_o world_n and_o we_o may_v soon_o be_v impose_v on_o and_o delude_v if_o we_o make_v not_o a_o wise_a choice_n of_o our_o religion_n there_o be_v many_o lord_n and_o many_o god_n so_o call_v say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 8.5_o though_o to_o we_o there_o be_v but_o one_o live_a and_o true_a god_n there_o be_v many_o way_n of_o religion_n heathenism_n mahometanism_n judaisme_n and_o christianity_n
