now_o follow_v the_o common_a description_n of_o the_o son_n they_o be_v two_o and_o both_o of_o abraham_n he_o have_v also_o six_o son_n by_o keturah_n gen._n 25.1_o 2._o but_o paul_n make_v mention_v only_o of_o those_o wherein_o god_n do_v principal_o shadow_v forth_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o church_n now_o paul_n make_v mention_n of_o abraham_n their_o common_a father_n that_o

two_o son_n of_o such_o differ_a condition_n to_o what_o purpose_n be_v it_o to_o boast_v of_o kindred_n piety_n be_v not_o propagate_v by_o birth_n but_o infuse_v by_o believe_v and_o therefore_o lest_o any_o shall_v ascribe_v holiness_n to_o nature_n rather_o than_o to_o grace_v god_n permit_v oft_o that_o the_o posterity_n of_o the_o godly_a to_o become_v wicked_a as_o cain_n of_o adam_n i_o

the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o that_o hence_o it_o be_v manifest_v that_o godliness_n flow_v alone_o from_o god_n grace_n and_o not_o from_o any_o humane_a endeavour_n john_n 1.12_o for_o when_o as_o abraham_n do_v so_o diligent_o apply_v and_o employ_v himself_o in_o instruct_v his_o family_n gen._n 18.19_o it_o be_v likely_a he_o leave_v no_o mean_n unattempted_a whereby_o his_o son_n ishmael_n may_v be_v instruct_v to_o piety_n he_o love_v he_o so_o well_o gen._n 17.18_o whence_o come_v it_o then_o that_o isaac_n be_v godly_a and_o ishmael_n profane_a sure_o hence_o that_o god_n have_v mercy_n on_o who_o he_o will_v neither_o do_v birth_n or_o humane_a endeavour_n profit_v any_o whit_n without_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n for_o as_o in_o tree_n set_v and_o plant_v in_o the_o which_o the_o husbandman_n bestow_v equal_a pain_n and_o care_n yet_o god_n give_v life_n and_o increase_n as_o seem_v good_a to_o he_o so_o in_o distribute_v his_o grace_n god_n do_v select_a out_o of_o man_n in_o every_o respect_n equal_a such_o as_o on_o who_o he_o bestow_v his_o mercy_n pass_v by_o other_o use_v 1_o to_o godly_a parent_n when_o they_o have_v discharge_v their_o duty_n and_o yet_o see_v great_a difference_n in_o their_o child_n they_o must_v with_o humility_n submit_v their_o will_n to_o god_n reverence_v his_o work_n adore_v his_o sovereignty_n and_o so_o stay_v themselves_o from_o too_o much_o afflict_v themselves_o use_v 2_o second_o this_o must_v make_v more_o sweet_a the_o grace_n of_o god_n to_o those_o that_o be_v partaker_n of_o it_o the_o more_o gratuitall_n it_o be_v the_o more_o grateful_a it_o shall_v be_v a_o singular_a grace_n and_o extraordinary_a require_v a_o singular_a and_o extraordinary_a praise_n as_o god_n of_o his_o peculiar_a people_n expect_v peculiar_a service_n especial_a to_o be_v earnest_a in_o prayer_n and_o frequent_a in_o praise_n use_v 3_o third_z it_o must_v teach_v all_o parent_n to_o run_v oft_o to_o god_n for_o their_o child_n not_o for_o worldly_a thing_n but_o to_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o heavenly_a grace_n and_o as_o the_o conference_n of_o david_n fault_n make_v he_o more_o humble_a himself_o for_o that_o child_n so_o though_o parent_n beget_v not_o child_n in_o sin_n in_o that_o behalf_n yet_o all_o be_v conceive_v and_o bear_v in_o sin_n receive_v from_o parent_n which_o must_v make_v they_o sue_v to_o god_n that_o grace_n may_v correct_v nature_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o general_a description_n in_o the_o particular_a description_n of_o son_n the_o first_o difference_n be_v of_o the_o mother_n

after_o his_o own_o will_n but_o do_v serve_v at_o the_o appointment_n and_o pleasure_n of_o another_o and_o hence_o note_n that_o when_o in_o abraham_n time_n and_o family_n there_o be_v such_o servant_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o this_o condition_n and_o outward_a difference_n be_v both_o ancient_a and_o lawful_a otherewise_o this_o holy_a man_n will_v not_o have_v suffer_v it_o in_o
