free_v we_o from_o the_o hand_n of_o satan_n and_o bring_v we_o to_o a_o eternal_a estate_n of_o communion_n with_o himself_o in_o heaven_n for_o all_o the_o old_a heaven_n and_o the_o old_a earth_n

suppose_v a_o man_n be_v in_o a_o desperate_a estate_n object_n and_o have_v no_o way_n of_o escape_v remember_v that_o god_n be_v the_o same_o still_o answ._n he_o have_v not_o forget_v his_o old_a

to_o do_v perhaps_o thy_o mind_n be_v so_o trouble_a and_o disquiet_v why_o commit_v thy_o soul_n to_o god_n he_o can_v raise_v a_o excellent_a frame_n out_o of_o the_o chaos_n of_o thy_o thought_n therefore_o be_v not_o dismay_v consider_v thou_o have_v god_n in_o covenant_n with_o thou_o and_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o a_o almighty_a creator_n who_o can_v send_v present_a help_n in_o time_n

god_n be_v faithful_a in_o himself_o all_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o that_o proceed_v from_o he_o whatsoever_o relation_n god_n take_v upon_o he_o he_o be_v faithful_a therein_o as_o he_o be_v a_o creator_n so_o he_o preserve_v and_o maintain_v his_o own_o work_n as_o he_o be_v a_o father_n he_o be_v faithful_a in_o discharge_v that_o duty_n to_o the_o full_a for_o his_o child_n good_n as_o be_v be_v our_o friend_n he_o likewise_o perform_v all_o the_o duty_n of_o that_o rel●●ion_n etc._n etc._n and_o why_o do_v god_n stoop_v so_o low_a to_o take_v these_o relation_n upon_o he_o but_o only_o to_o show_v that_o he_o will_v certain_o accomplish_v the_o same_o to_o the_o utmost_a whence_o be_v it_o that_o man_n be_v faithful_a in_o their_o relation_n one_o towards_o another_o that_o the_o father_n be_v faithful_a to_o his_o child_n be_v it_o not_o from_o god_n the_o chief_a father_n that_o a_o friend_n shall_v be_v faithful_a to_o his_o friend_n be_v it_o not_o from_o god_n the_o great_a friend_n all_o his_o way_n be_v mercy_n and_o truth_n 10._o they_o be_v not_o only_o merciful_a and_o good_a and_o gracious_a but_o mercy_n and_o truth_n itself_o if_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o father_n he_o be_v a_o true_a father_n a_o true_a friend_n a_o true_a creator_n and_o protector_n as_o one_o say_v shall_v i_o cause_v other_o to_o fear_n and_o be_v a_o tyrant_n myself_o all_o other_o faithfulness_n be_v but_o a_o beam_n of_o that_o which_o be_v in_o god_n shall_v not_o he_o be_v most_o faithful_a that_o make_v other_o thing_n faithful_a now_o this_o faithfulness_n of_o god_n be_v here_o a_o ground_n of_o this_o duty_n of_o commit_v ourselves_o to_o he_o and_o we_o may_v well_o trust_v he_o who_o word_n have_v be_v seven_o time_n try_v in_o the_o

you_o read_v of_o any_o singular_a promise_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n 15._o it_o be_v say_v this_o be_v a_o faithful_a say_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v this_o be_v such_o a_o speech_n as_o we_o may_v trust_v to_o it_o be_v the_o speech_n of_o a_o faithful_a creator_n consider_v therefore_o that_o god_n be_v so_o faithful_a every_o way_n in_o his_o promise_n and_o in_o his_o deed_n let_v we_o make_v especial_a use_n of_o it_o treasure_n up_o all_o the_o promise_n we_o can_v of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n of_o protection_n and_o preservation_n that_o he_o will_v never_o leave_v we_o but_o be_v our_o god_n to_o death_n etc._n etc._n and_o then_o consider_v withal_o that_o he_o be_v faithful_a in_o perform_v the_o same_o when_o we_o be_v affright_v by_o his_o majesty_n and_o his_o justice_n and_o other_o attribute_n then_o think_v of_o his_o mercy_n and_o truth_n he_o have_v clothe_v himself_o with_o faithfulness_n as_o the_o psalmist_n say_v in_o all_o the_o unfaithfulnesse_n of_o man_n who_o thou_o trust_v depend_v upon_o this_o that_o god_n be_v still_o the_o same_o and_o will_v not_o deceive_v thou_o when_o we_o have_v man_n word_n we_o have_v his_o sufficiency_n in_o
