man_n if_o he_o deal_v with_o they_o in_o justice_n may_v expect_v from_o he_o yet_o it_o be_v still_o so_o to_o be_v understand_v as_o the_o son_n of_o a_o wicked_a person_n may_v be_v find_v to_o be_v a_o elect_n and_o the_o son_n of_o a_o godly_a person_n reject_v that_o he_o may_v continue_v his_o plague_n long_o than_o the_o three_o or_o four_o generation_n or_o break_v they_o off_o soon_o when_o he_o think_v good_a for_o though_o by_o this_o he_o will_v restrain_v parent_n from_o sin_n yet_o have_v he_o a_o door_n open_a to_o many_o such_o child_n for_o mercy_n even_o as_o the_o contrary_a promise_n have_v many_o exception_n as_o to_o the_o child_n of_o godly_a parent_n that_o walk_v not_o in_o the_o path_n of_o their_o parent_n go_v before_o they_o as_o many_o know_a instance_n of_o both_o in_o scripture_n do_v make_v out_o the_o three_o question_n be_v how_o god_n do_v execute_v this_o threaten_n or_o how_o he_o do_v reach_v child_n with_o eternal_a plague_n for_o their_o parants_n sin_n answ_n 1._o he_o do_v it_o certain_o and_o he_o do_v it_o just_o therefore_o the_o child_n must_v not_o only_o be_v consider_v as_o guilty_a but_o as_o guilty_a of_o the_o sin_n of_o their_o parent_n which_o we_o may_v thus_o conceive_v 1._o as_o to_o the_o child_n of_o a_o wicked_a parent_n lie_v in_o natural_a corruption_n god_n deny_v and_o with_o hold_v his_o renew_n and_o restrain_v grace_n which_o he_o be_v not_o oblige_v to_o confer_v and_o the_o lord_n in_o this_o may_v respect_v the_o parent_n guilt_n just_o 2._o when_o grace_n be_v deny_v then_o follow_v the_o temptation_n of_o the_o parent_n practice_v the_o devil_n stir_v up_o to_o the_o like_a sin_n and_o they_o further_a their_o child_n to_o wickedness_n by_o their_o example_n advice_n

it_o be_v psal_n 49._o 13._o to_o approve_v their_o parent_n say_n 3._o upon_o this_o follow_v god_n cast_v the_o child_n now_o guilty_a of_o his_o parent_n fault_n into_o eternal_a perdition_n with_o he_o and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o threaten_a will_v appear_v by_o the_o example_n of_o god_n justice_n in_o this_o matter_n when_o wicked_a parent_n have_v child_n that_o be_v not_o so_o much_o miserable_a in_o regard_n of_o temporal_a thing_n as_o they_o be_v wicked_a curse_a and_o plague_v with_o ungodliness_n so_o be_v cain_n child_n so_o be_v the_o child_n of_o cham_n and_o so_o be_v esa●'●_n who_o be_v all_o for_o a_o long_a time_n prosperous_a in_o the_o world_n but_o follow_v their_o father_n sin_n a_o main_a part_n of_o their_o curse_n god_n afterward_o visit_v they_o on_o they_o with_o sad_a temporal_a judgement_n also_o 4._o if_o it_o be_v ask_v why_o god_n thus_o plague_v and_o threaten_v the_o child_n of_o wicked_a parent_n answ_n 1._o god_n do_v it_o to_o make_v sin_n hateful_a see_v it_o bring_v often_o a_o forfeiture_n of_o spiritual_a blessing_n yea_o of_o blessing_n of_o all_o sort_n upon_o whole_a generation_n and_o family_n 2._o to_o strike_v the_o more_o terror_n into_o other_o who_o by_o this_o may_v be_v scare_v from_o sin_n and_o make_v to_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o god_n who_o be_v so_o dreadful_a as_o to_o put_v a_o mark_n of_o infamy_n on_o the_o race_n and_o posterity_n of_o his_o enemy_n 3._o the_o more_o to_o effect_v and_o weight_n the_o sinner_n it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o his_o punishman_n to_o know_v that_o by_o his_o sin_n he_o have_v not_o only_o make_v himself_o miserable_a but_o all_o his_o posterity_n and_o these_o may_v be_v the_o reason_n why_o as_o it_o be_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n all_o

for_o some_o kind_n of_o fault_n 4_o this_o become_v god_n greatness_n that_o man_n may_v know_v how_o sovereign_a he_o be_v and_o how_o treason_n against_o the_o most_o high_a be_v to_o be_v

a_o good_a conscience_n rather_o than_o in_o all_o temporal_a riches_n these_o same_o question_n and_o answer_n may_v serve_v to_o clear_v what_o concern_v the_o promise_n also_o they_o be_v
