when_o there_o be_v occasion_n we_o shall_v faithful_o interpret_v our_o mind_n in_o what_o we_o think_v and_o what_o we_o intend_v have_v god_n give_v we_o a_o tongue_n to_o be_v a_o instrument_n of_o deceit_n or_o as_o a_o false_a alarm_n to_o betray_v man_n or_o to_o catch_v man_n as_o we_o do_v bird_n with_o a_o false_a call_n or_o as_o a_o clapper_n to_o toll_v man_n to_o their_o

than_o swear_v in_o several_a regard_n 1._o because_o swear_v be_v not_o absolute_o unlawful_a if_o it_o be_v in_o the_o right_a form_n upon_o due_a occasion_n and_o the_o object_n be_v god_n it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o religion_n but_o there_o be_v no_o right_a form_n of_o lie_v there_o can_v be_v no_o just_a occasion_n there_o be_v no_o object_n for_o it_o it_o be_v against_o judgement_n truth_n and_o righteousness_n we_o ought_v not_o therefore_o to_o lie_v though_o thereby_o we_o can_v save_v a_o world_n although_o what_o so_o frequent_a as_o to_o tell_v a_o lie_n to_o save_v or_o get_v a_o farthing_n 2._o lie_v be_v worse_a because_o it_o be_v more_o unreasonable_a for_o it_o be_v opposite_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o be_v it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o same_o thing_n shall_v be_v and_o not_o be_v be_v a_o prime_a principle_n now_o the_o lie_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o do_v thwart_v this_o principle_n for_o it_o will_v make_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o lie_n to_o be_v and_o not_o to_o be_v as_o in_o the_o example_n of_o gehezi_n the_o prophet_n ask_v he_o where_o he_o have_v be_v he_o say_v he_o go_v no_o whither_o here_o be_v the_o lie_n he_o speak_v contrary_a to_o the_o thing_n know_v for_o he_o do_v go_v after_o naaman_n for_o his_o advantage_n that_o he_o do_v go_v be_v true_a in_o the_o fact_n and_o that_o he_o do_v not_o go_v he_o will_v have_v true_a in_o his_o word_n and_o so_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o lie_n be_v to_o have_v both_o the_o part_n of_o the_o contradiction_n true_a that_o he_o do_v go_v and_o he_o do_v not_o go_v and_o if_o this_o may_v be_v grant_v it_o will_v unravel_v all_o the_o world_n and_o we_o can_v not_o affirm_v god_n or_o any_o thing_n this_o be_v the_o mind_n of_o go_v against_o our_o mind_n in_o speech_n so_o it_o be_v repugnant_a to_o prime_a principle_n and_o the_o prime_a verity_n who_o be_v 3._o it_o be_v more_o heinous_a because_o it_o be_v more_o destructive_a of_o all_o communion_n with_o man_n swear_v be_v not_o in_o itself_o destructive_a but_o be_v if_o due_o perform_v of_o use_n to_o preserve_v the_o right_n of_o man_n in_o their_o good_a name_n or_o estate_n or_o life_n as_o when_o a_o oath_n be_v make_v before_o a_o lawful_a judge_n for_o the_o end_n of_o debate_n 4._o god_n can_v lie_v for_o it_o be_v sin_n and_o therefore_o he_o can_v do_v it_o and_o all_o in_o he_o be_v be_v and_o therefore_o he_o can_v lie_v but_o god_n have_v swear_v in_o his_o wrath_n if_o they_o shall_v enter_v into_o his_o rest_n as_o in_o the_o 95._o psalm_n 5._o because_o lie_v be_v a_o act_n as_o we_o may_v speak_v of_o filial_a obedience_n to_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n the_o devil_n who_o be_v the_o father_n of_o a_o lie_n as_o st._n john_n describe_v he_o joh._n 8.44_o he_o be_v a_o liar_n from_o the_o beginning_n and_o so_o he_o destroy_v man_n and_o that_o which_o be_v symbolical_a to_o the_o first_o sin_n be_v like_a to_o be_v a_o chief_a sin_n we_o do_v not_o read_v of_o the_o devil_n swear_v for_o they_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o do_v that_o which_o upon_o any_o condition_n shall_v be_v a_o religious_a act_n and_o also_o man_n will_v believe_v he_o without_o swear_v 6._o this_o sin_n of_o lie_v be_v odious_a to_o the_o very_a heathen_n and_o as_o odious_a as_o hell_n be_v he_o that_o say_v one_o thing_n and_o mean_v another_o so_o heinous_a this_o vice_n be_v which_o i_o have_v not_o take_v such_o notice_n of_o as_o if_o i_o will_v favour_v swear_v for_o i_o shall_v give_v it_o its_o correction_n in_o its_o due_a place_n but_o i_o have_v give_v it_o the_o sharp_a censure_n because_o it_o deserve_v it_o and_o because_o it_o be_v more_o common_a and_o more_o abominable_a in_o those_o who_o abominate_a oath_n be_v there_o any_o christian_a blood_n run_v in_o our_o vein_n we_o will_v blush_v at_o such_o enormity_n which_o have_v we_o not_o be_v professor_n of_o christianity_n we_o may_v have_v scorn_v can_v we_o make_v any_o pretence_n of_o interest_n in_o the_o god_n of_o truth_n when_o there_o be_v no_o truth_n in_o we_o let_v we_o not_o therefore_o any_o long_a dishonour_n the_o faith_n of_o a_o christian_a in_o make_v that_o to_o be_v a_o cloak_n of_o our_o iniquity_n which_o when_o we_o put_v it_o on_o be_v make_v to_o signify_v that_o we_o will_v put_v off_o lie_v lie_v not_o one_o to_o another_o since_o you_o have_v put_v off_o the_o old_a man_n with_o his_o work_n and_o have_v put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n which_o be_v renew_v in_o knowledge_n according_a to_o the_o image_n of_o he_o that_o create_v he_o as_o st._n paul_n exhort_v we_o
