to_o weigh_v the_o matter_n and_o in_o time_n to_o consider_v it_o for_o certain_o the_o lord_n be_v grieve_v with_o evil_a deed_n and_o with_o the_o disorderly_a walk_n of_o all_o such_o as_o be_v out_o of_o his_o fear_n and_o that_o parent_n will_v be_v more_o mindful_a of_o what_o they_o be_v entrust_v with_o and_o to_o order_v it_o in_o god_n fear_n and_o wisdom_n that_o all_o they_o have_v under_o their_o charge_n may_v be_v a_o good_a favour_n unto_o god_n and_o bring_v honour_n to_o his_o name_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o all_o his_o gift_n be_v abuse_v and_o his_o name_n dishonour_v and_o there_o the_o creation_n be_v out_o of_o order_n now_o all_o parent_n must_v come_v to_o that_o of_o god_n in_o themselves_o before_o they_o can_v instruct_v their_o child_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n they_o must_v come_v to_o the_o light_n in_o their_o own_o conscience_n and_o in_o the_o light_n behold_v their_o own_o present_a state_n for_o be_v from_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n they_o can_v walk_v in_o god_n fear_v themselves_o neither_o can_v they_o teach_v their_o child_n so_o and_o be_v not_o that_o a_o grievous_a thing_n when_o a_o whole_a family_n be_v out_o of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o both_o parent_n and_o child_n exercise_v in_o vanity_n and_o how_o do_v wickedness_n flow_v like_o a_o flood_n from_o generation_n to_o generation_n and_o one_o generation_n go_v and_o another_o come_v and_o with_o every_o generation_n sin_n appear_v and_o evil_a be_v practise_v and_o grow_v from_o one_o to_o another_o in_o full_a strength_n and_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n because_o that_o child_n be_v not_o train_v up_o in_o god_n fear_n for_o if_o that_o be_v so_o sin_n will_v die_v and_o in_o every_o generation_n it_o will_v grow_v weak_a and_o weak_a and_o in_o time_n it_o will_v be_v root_v out_o and_o the_o practice_n in_o it_o will_v cease_v and_o it_o will_v not_o be_v have_v in_o remembrance_n therefore_o all_o you_o parent_n of_o child_n mind_v the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o yourselves_o and_o come_v to_o the_o principle_n of_o god_n in_o your_o own_o conscience_n and_o yield_v yourselves_o unto_o that_o and_o obey_v it_o and_o then_o you_o can_v see_v your_o child_n run_v into_o vanity_n and_o suffer_v they_o to_o go_v unreproved_a if_o you_o once_o hearken_v to_o the_o voice_n of_o god_n in_o you_o and_o mind_n the_o testimony_n of_o his_o witness_n in_o your_o conscience_n to_o know_v in_o yourselves_o unto_o what_o reproof_n belong_v and_o what_o the_o lord_n allow_v and_o so_o to_o answer_v the_o lord_n in_o obedience_n and_o come_v to_o know_v yourselves_o change_v than_o you_o will_v be_v able_a to_o instruct_v your_o child_n in_o the_o same_o path_n and_o can_v suffer_v they_o to_o run_v into_o vanity_n much_o less_o to_o train_v they_o up_o in_o it_o and_o so_o in_o the_o principle_n of_o god_n you_o will_v receive_v wisdom_n from_o above_o and_o know_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o in_o which_o wisdom_n be_v the_o pure_a order_n and_o good_a government_n than_o you_o can_v let_v your_o child_n lie_v and_o swear_v and_o curse_v and_o play_v and_o riot_n and_o be_v vain_a in_o pleasure_n and_o game_n your_o eye_n will_v be_v over_o they_o in_o wisdom_n and_o in_o the_o gentleness_n you_o will_v reprove_v they_o and_o in_o meekness_n instruct_v they_o and_o when_o they_o do_v go_v amiss_o you_o will_v feel_v grief_n come_v upon_o you_o concern_v they_o and_o when_o you_o be_v grieve_v for_o they_o in_o that_o state_n then_o take_v heed_n you_o do_v not_o fall_v into_o passion_n and_o anger_n and_o wrath_n and_o in_o that_o exercise_n your_o will_n upon_o they_o and_o use_v your_o hand_n in_o severity_n towards_o they_o but_o in_o wisdom_n wait_v to_o be_v guide_v that_o not_o any_o fault_n which_o come_v to_o your_o knowledge_n may_v pass_v unreproved_a neither_o any_o fault_n be_v too_o severe_o punish_v for_o they_o be_v both_o out_o of_o true_a order_n and_o you_o may_v know_v that_o when_o you_o have_v exercise_v your_o hand_n upon_o they_o in_o passion_n that_o you_o be_v not_o free_a from_o trouble_n afterward_o when_o you_o come_v into_o coolness_n again_o you_o will_v be_v judge_v in_o yourselves_o for_o your_o rashness_n and_o then_o you_o will_v have_v trouble_n in_o your_o conscience_n and_o there_o be_v no_o profit_n to_o your_o child_n by_o that_o hand_n because_o wisdom_n do_v not_o order_v it_o therefore_o you_o parent_n who_o will_v have_v your_o child_n to_o do_v will_n and_o to_o be_v happy_a wait_v to_o be_v order_v in_o wisdom_n towards_o they_o and_o keep_v to_o the_o light_n of_o the_o lord_n you_o will_v know_v both_o how_o to_o spare_v and_o how_o to_o correct_v and_o so_o with_o a_o meek_a and_o gentle_a spirit_n bring_v they_o into_o order_n and_o bend_v they_o in_o their_o tenderness_n before_o the_o bad_a part_n grow_v stubborn_a and_o be_v strong_a for_o in_o their_o tenderness_n it_o will_v be_v easy_a and_o whilst_o they_o be_v young_a and_o green_a the_o witness_n lie_v near_o they_o and_o reproof_n soon_o reach_v they_o and_o if_o there_o be_v but_o a_o eye_n upon_o they_o in_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n the_o witness_n will_v answer_v and_o the_o bad_a will_v be_v present_o judge_v in_o they_o which_o grow_v into_o more_o strength_n for_o want_v of_o timely_a order_n the_o darkness_n thicken_v over_o they_o and_o then_o the_o witness_n lie_v at_o a_o far_a distance_n and_o that_o which_o at_o first_o may_v have_v be_v rebuke_v with_o a_o look_n will_v not_o then_o be_v bring_v down_o with_o a_o blow_n and_o here_o parent_n both_o wrong_v themselves_o and_o their_o child_n for_o want_n of_o wisdom_n for_o they_o give_v way_n to_o their_o child_n whilst_o they_o be_v young_a and_o so_o let_v up_o the_o bad_a part_n into_o strength_n and_o when_o they_o come_v to_o behold_v thing_n far_o amiss_o in_o their_o child_n then_o they_o will_v bend_v they_o and_o can_v and_o so_o let_v up_o the_o bad_a nature_n over_o their_o own_o head_n and_o then_o behold_v their_o child_n with_o mourning_n which_o in_o wisdom_n may_v be_v timely_o prevent_v and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a wrong_a both_o to_o parent_n and_o child_n and_o bring_v grief_n and_o sorrow_n upon_o they_o both_o therefore_o order_n be_v a_o sweet_a thing_n when_o parent_n have_v wisdom_n to_o govern_v their_o child_n and_o to_o nurture_n they_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o to_o keep_v they_o in_o duty_n and_o submission_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n then_o there_o be_v a_o good_a savour_n both_o in_o parent_n and_o child_n and_o a_o comely_a order_n behold_v in_o the_o wisdom_n and_o to_o come_v into_o this_o comely_a order_n be_v a_o sweet_a savour_n and_o to_o inform_v child_n to_o the_o principle_n of_o god_n in_o they_o and_o to_o teach_v they_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o learn_v they_o to_o behave_v themselves_o modest_o and_o sober_o unto_o all_o people_n this_o be_v good_a education_n and_o also_o

and_o what_o he_o do_v not_o allow_v he_o do_v reprove_v and_o therefore_o the_o matter_n be_v weighty_a upon_o parent_n every_o way_n to_o keep_v their_o child_n

your_o vain_a conversation_n and_o your_o salvation_n from_o your_o vain_a tradition_n that_o every_o one_o in_o your_o place_n may_v honour_v god_n and_o be_v a_o good_a savour_n unto_o god_n for_o what_o good_a do_v your_o observation_n of_o day_n and_o your_o preach_n and_o pray_v and_o all_o your_o worship_n and_o service_n and_o all_o your_o talk_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n to_o be_v your_o saviour_n and_o the_o hope_n which_o you_o say_v you_o have_v by_o his_o merit_n what_o good_a will_v all_o this_o talk_n do_v you_o while_o you_o live_v in_o sin_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o god_n and_o so_o be_v under_o the_o condemnation_n of_o christ_n and_o not_o in_o his_o salvation_n for_o he_o do_v not_o merit_v any_o thing_n for_o the_o sin_n but_o for_o the_o sinner_n and_o consider_v how_o this_o lie_n for_o you_o want_v understanding_n christ_n jesus_n do_v manifest_v his_o light_n in_o man_n and_o with_o his_o light_n he_o let_v man_n see_v his_o sin_n by_o which_o sin_n man_n be_v separate_v from_o god_n and_o he_o reprove_v the_o sinner_n and_o call_v he_o to_o repentance_n then_o the_o mind_n turn_v to_o the_o light_n when_o the_o light_n reprove_v and_o answer_v the_o light_n faithful_o then_o do_v the_o light_n begin_v to_o separate_v he_o from_o the_o sin_n and_o to_o draw_v he_o out_o of_o the_o sin_n so_o christ_n save_v the_o sinner_n from_o the_o sin_n which_o he_o have_v live_v in_o and_o through_o his_o judgement_n he_o purge_v the_o sinner_n and_o make_v he_o clean_o through_o the_o water_n of_o regeneration_n and_o then_o he_o reconcile_v unto_o god_n the_o father_n by_o himself_o and_o merit_v the_o love_n and_o the_o life_n and_o the_o peace_n for_o the_o sinner_n which_o in_o the_o sinful_a state_n be_v separate_v from_o god_n but_o now_o in_o the_o clean_a state_n be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o so_o man_n be_v not_o reconcile_v as_o a_o sinner_n in_o the_o sin_n but_o a_o sinner_n wash_v and_o bathe_v and_o cleanse_v by_o the_o pure_a water_n which_o take_v away_o the_o filthiness_n of_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n and_o so_o reconcile_v to_o god_n who_o be_v holy_a in_o the_o holiness_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o here_o man_n come_v to_o christ_n and_o to_o his_o salvation_n and_o salvation_n be_v the_o work_n of_o christ_n alone_o and_o by_o he_o be_v perfect_v through_o regeneration_n so_o that_o it_o may_v here_o be_v understand_v by_o this_o short_a testimony_n that_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n be_v hold_v forth_o for_o salvation_n and_o not_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n for_o though_o it_o be_v so_o that_o people_n must_v come_v to_o repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n and_o that_o they_o must_v deny_v their_o evil_a way_n in_o obedience_n to_o christ_n who_o be_v pure_a yet_o there_o be_v no_o act_n which_o by_o they_o be_v do_v that_o bring_v salvation_n though_o in_o their_o way_n they_o do_v meet_v with_o peace_n from_o god_n through_o obedience_n but_o the_o salvation_n be_v in_o the_o free_a grace_n of_o god_n through_o christ_n jesus_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o bring_v salvation_n do_v appear_v to_o all_o man_n mark_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v appear_v to_o all_o man_n and_o where_o do_v it_o appear_v why_o in_o their_o own_o conscience_n and_o what_o do_v it_o appear_v against_o why_o against_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n in_o every_o place_n and_o what_o do_v it_o appear_v to_o do_v why_o to_o destroy_v the_o devil_n the_o author_n of_o sin_n and_o what_o will_v it_o do_v further_o why_o it_o will_v teach_v to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n so_o mark_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o bring_v salvation_n do_v appear_v in_o man_n against_o ungodliness_n and_o teach_v man_n that_o do_v receive_v it_o to_o deny_v ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n and_o these_o thing_n must_v be_v deny_v in_o obedience_n to_o the_o grace_n yet_o the_o salvation_n do_v not_o stand_v in_o the_o thing_n do_v but_o in_o the_o grace_n alone_o which_o require_v the_o duty_n &_o teach_v to_o deny_v that_o which_o it_o appear_v again_v and_o then_o it_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n and_o save_v from_o the_o sin_n which_o have_v make_v man_n unclean_a and_o what_o will_v the_o grace_n do_v further_o why_o it_o will_v teach_v to_o live_v sober_o and_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a evil_a world_n so_o mark_v again_o here_o be_v a_o change_n wrought_v in_o man_n by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n the_o grace_n as_o it_o do_v appear_v be_v receive_v the_o ungodliness_n and_o worldly_a lust_n they_o be_v deny_v and_o soberness_n and_o righteousness_n and_o godliness_n they_o be_v bring_v forth_o and_o manifest_v by_o the_o grace_n and_o here_o be_v the_o freegrace_n in_o the_o free-love_n of_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v salvation_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o all_o that_o in_o he_o believe_v but_o people_n do_v not_o know_v he_o and_o so_o let_v forth_o their_o own_o belief_n into_o a_o imagination_n of_o he_o and_o look_v to_o find_v he_o in_o their_o own_o way_n and_o they_o have_v form_v he_o in_o their_o own_o belief_n without_o they_o they_o neglect_v the_o manifestation_n of_o his_o light_n within_o they_o and_o the_o body_n of_o sin_n remain_v unremoved_a and_o such_o know_v not_o his_o salvation_n but_o with_o sin_n be_v defile_v and_o pollute_v and_o with_o that_o unclean_a body_n his_o life_n be_v press_v and_o there_o the_o just_a suffer_v for_o the_o unjust_a and_o the_o load_n of_o sin_n be_v heavy_a upon_o he_o which_o in_o his_o patience_n he_o bear_v though_o with_o his_o light_n he_o place_v judgement_n upon_o it_o every_o way_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v open_v what_o the_o grace_n be_v in_o itself_o and_o what_o it_o be_v unto_o man_n that_o receive_v it_o and_o believe_v in_o it_o that_o all_o may_v mind_v the_o grace_n that_o bring_v salvation_n and_o close_o with_o it_o in_o its_o appearance_n that_o they_o may_v come_v to_o salvation_n by_o it_o which_o in_o itself_o be_v free_a therefore_o all_o people_n ponder_v these_o thing_n in_o your_o heart_n and_o wait_v to_o know_v what_o time_n will_v bring_v forth_o in_o order_n to_o your_o salvation_n and_o do_v not_o neglect_v the_o time_n which_o you_o have_v present_a but_o day_n by_o day_n consider_v god_n goodness_n towards_o you_o that_o his_o goodness_n may_v overcome_v you_o to_o repentance_n and_o that_o you_o may_v come_v to_o jesus_n christ_n and_o know_v your_o salvation_n by_o he_o alone_o that_o his_o peace_n he_o may_v seal_v unto_o you_o in_o his_o own_o covenant_n and_o that_o in_o his_o life_n and_o wisdom_n you_o may_v walk_v as_o become_v christian_n in_o all_o sobriety_n and_o honesty_n deal_v just_o and_o love_a mercy_n and_o than_o you_o will_v be_v a_o good_a savour_n unto_o god_n and_o generation_n to_o come_v will_v rejoice_v at_o your_o remembrance_n and_o this_o be_v a_o exhortation_n unto_o you_o joint_o that_o you_o may_v come_v to_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n particular_o which_o light_n be_v but_o one_o in_o you_o all_o and_o if_o you_o mind_v it_o to_o

then_o as_o one_o body_n you_o will_v stand_v in_o righteousness_n to_o glorify_v god_n and_o this_o will_v bring_v peace_n in_o the_o latter_a end_n but_o if_o you_o refuse_v to_o hearken_v and_o to_o obey_v your_o destruction_n will_v be_v of_o yourselves_o and_o god_n will_v be_v clear_a when_o he_o judge_n therefore_o consider_v it_o serious_o and_o neglect_v not_o to_o close_v with_o the_o
