their_o child_n shall_v spend_v their_o day_n in_o folly_n they_o will_v give_v they_o correction_n they_o love_v the_o soul_n of_o their_o child_n and_o therefore_o rather_o than_o they_o shall_v be_v lose_v they_o will_v correct_v they_o follow_v the_o advice_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n prov._n 23.13_o 14._o withhold_a not_o correction_n from_o the_o child_n for_o if_o thou_o beat_v he_o

for_o displease_v god_n although_o they_o may_v correct_v they_o overmuch_o to_o please_v their_o own_o humour_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o mercy_n to_o have_v good_a parent_n the_o six_o reason_n it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o godly_a parent_n because_o the_o saint_n be_v continual_o pray_v for_o they_o i_o suppose_v that_o godly_a parent_n do_v go_v themselves_o and_o

prayer_n do_v prevail_v with_o god_n and_o how_o often_o he_o hear_v they_o and_o answer_v they_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o mercy_n to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o godly_a parent_n chap._n v._o other_o

believe_v not_o on_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n whosoever_o be_v save_v be_v save_v by_o faith_n and_o that_o his_o own_o faith_n not_o the_o faith_n of_o his_o parent_n therefore_o let_v the_o child_n of_o believer_n use_v all_o diligence_n to_o get_v the_o same_o unfeigned_a faith_n with_o their_o parent_n the_o second_o reason_n the_o child_n of_o godly_a parent_n shall_v take_v care_n to_o get_v faith_n because_o faith_n be_v not_o entail_v on_o the_o child_n of_o believer_n they_o do_v not_o convey_v grace_n as_o they_o do_v corruption_n on_o his_o child_n for_o faith_n be_v the_o

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 pleasure_n of_o god_n be_v the_o rule_n of_o his_o bestow_n grace_n therefore_o let_v the_o child_n of_o believer_n be_v careful_a to_o get_v faith_n the_o three_o reason_n the_o child_n of_o good_a parent_n shall_v be_v careful_a to_o get_v faith_n because_o this_o great_a mercy_n we_o enjoy_v of_o have_v parent_n that_o be_v godly_a that_o p●ay_v for_o we_o instruct_v we_o correct_v we_o bring_v we_o to_o the_o ordinance_n and_o give_v we_o holy_a example_n if_o we_o do_v not_o receive_v instruction_n increase_v our_o condemnation_n at_o last_o therefore_o be_v careful_a the_o four_o reason_n such_o child_n shall_v be_v careful_a to_o get_v faith_n for_o if_o they_o miss_v of_o it_o they_o will_v be_v without_o excuse_n they_o can_v say_v but_o they_o have_v be_v offer_v heaven_n

of_o sin_n and_o dehort_v from_o sin_n therefore_o see_v you_o get_v grace_n or_o else_o you_o will_v be_v without_o excuse_n and_o miserable_a chap._n xii_o other_o reason_n a_o use_n of_o reproof_n the_o several_a way_n that_o godly_a man_n child_n forfeit_v their_o mercy_n the_o five_o reason_n godly_a man_n child_n shall_v be_v very_o careful_a to_o get_v faith_n because_o satan_n be_v most_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 faith_n because_o they_o be_v apt_a to_o rest_v in_o the_o form_n and_o outward_a profession_n of_o religion_n be_v breed_v up_o civil_o and_o not_o suffer_v to_o run_v to_o any_o outward_a evil_n 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 parent_n shall_v be_v so_o careful_a to_o get_v unfeigned_a faith_n this_o sad_o reprove_v such_o as_o neglect_v it_o and_o continue_v in_o sin_n though_o they_o have_v parent_n that_o hate_v sin_n 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 not_o you_o strive_v to_o enter_v god_n offer_v heaven_n and_o will_v you_o refuse_v it_o there_o be_v three_o way_n that_o i_o find_v in_o scripture_n and_o experience_n that_o the_o child_n of_o
