reason_n why_o any_o shall_v impute_v the_o abound_a of_o error_n and_o heresy_n among_o christian_n to_o the_o scripture_n themselves_o as_o though_o either_o they_o be_v defective_a in_o the_o

the_o knowledge_n of_o truth_n as_o contain_v in_o they_o be_v plain_a to_o he_o that_o understand_v neither_o do_v those_o error_n and_o heresy_n proceed_v from_o any_o influence_n the_o doctrine_n of_o christianity_n have_v upon_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n but_o they_o proceed_v from_o the_o pravity_n of_o man_n nature_n from_o satan_n and_o the_o just_a wrath_n and_o displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o men._n now_o there_o be_v too_o many_o that_o take_v up_o a_o profession_n of_o religion_n that_o be_v whole_o flesh_n in_o a_o unregenerate_a estate_n and_o alas_o there_o be_v too_o much_o

whole_o unregenerate_a they_o be_v subject_a to_o satan_n he_o work_v effectual_o in_o they_o and_o as_o for_o those_o that_o be_v regenerate_v satan_n have_v yet_o too_o much_o power_n over_o they_o and_o too_o many_o advantage_n against_o they_o and_o beside_o god_n be_v often_o provoke_v by_o man_n to_o send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n the_o abound_v of_o error_n and_o heresy_n in_o these_o land_n wherein_o we_o dwell_v be_v none_o of_o the_o least_o evidence_n of_o the_o wrath_n and_o displeasure_n of_o god_n against_o they_o and_o professor_n in_o they_o and_o from_o all_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o error_n and_o heresy_n do_v so_o much_o abound_v it_o be_v to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o the_o grace_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n that_o they_o abound_v no_o more_o let_v but_o

at_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n or_o at_o religion_n profess_v by_o christian_n 2._o hence_o we_o may_v learn_v how_o unmeet_a and_o unfit_a man_n as_o in_o himself_o be_v to_o be_v entrust_v with_o truth_n in_o the_o hold_n of_o it_o forth_o unto_o other_o and_o yet_o that_o be_v a_o trust_n god_n have_v repose_v in_o his_o church_n and_o consequent_o in_o every_o member_n thereof_o according_a to_o their_o disserent_fw-la station_n and_o capacity_n therein_o hence_o the_o church_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o pillar_n and_o ground_n of_o truth_n 1_o tim._n 3.16_o and_o hereby_o god_n do_v great_o magnify_v his_o church_n and_o people_n but_o man_n no_o not_o the_o best_a of_o man_n be_v to_o be_v trust_v as_o absolute_o consider_v in_o themselves_o and_o therefore_o god_n have_v constitute_v jesus_n christ_n the_o head_n shepherd_z and_o bishop_n of_o his_o church_n have_v entrust_v truth_n first_o in_o his_o hand_n and_o it_o high_o concern_v all_o christian_n to_o walk_v humble_o with_o and_o in_o a_o continual_a holy_a dependence_n on_o he_o to_o be_v by_o he_o lead_v into_o and_o preserve_v in_o all_o truth_n that_o so_o they_o may_v hold_v it_o forth_o unto_o other_o otherwise_o they_o will_v fail_v in_o the_o discharge_n of_o their_o trust_n they_o will_v take_v up_o and_o hold_v fast_a error_n instead_o of_o truth_n 3._o hence_o we_o may_v infer_v the_o necessity_n that_o man_n as_o in_o this_o fall_v and_o deprave_a estate_n lie_v under_o some_o extrinsical_a mean_n whereby_o he_o may_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o be_v guide_v into_o and_o preserve_v in_o the_o truth_n it_o must_v be_v by_o some_o revelation_n either_o mediate_o or_o immediate_o from_o god_n that_o man_n must_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o truth_n man_n if_o leave_v to_o himself_o not_o only_o his_o natural_a inclination_n unto_o error_n but_o the_o weakness_n and_o shallowness_n of_o his_o own_o understanding_n will_v necessary_o subject_v he_o to_o variety_n of_o mistake_v and_o error_n and_o that_o in_o and_o about_o those_o thing_n the_o knowledge_n of_o which_o be_v indispensable_o necessary_a to_o happiness_n and_o blessedness_n man_n be_v own_o understanding_n be_v no_o safe_a guide_n for_o he_o to_o follow_v in_o the_o concern_v of_o his_o soul_n and_o eternity_n it_o will_v certain_o mislead_v he_o therefore_o be_v that_o caution_n give_v we_o by_o the_o wise_a of_o man_n and_o he_o guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o alwise_a god_n lean_v not_o to_o thy_o own_o understanding_n prov._n 3.5_o those_o that_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o mere_a light_n of_o their_o own_o understanding_n as_o those_o who_o pretend_v to_o a_o light_n within_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o light_n of_o the_o scripture_n or_o that_o which_o be_v

of_o fall_v adam_n into_o his_o holy_a hill_n scil_n heaven_n psal_n 43.4_o 4._o hence_o we_o may_v infer_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n to_o fall_v man_n in_o particular_a to_o ourselves_o and_o as_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n be_v various_o express_v so_o eminent_o in_o the_o provision_n he_o have_v make_v for_o our_o guidance_n into_o and_o establishment_n in_o the_o truth_n and_o

at_o present_a i_o shall_v only_o say_v that_o that_o marvellous_a proneness_n unto_o error_n that_o be_v connatural_a unto_o all_o saint_n themselves_o so_o far_o as_o unrenewed_a not_o except_v
