beside_o the_o secret_a counsel_n of_o the_o lord_n herein_o we_o must_v know_v that_o neither_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o universal_a that_o every_o particular_a child_n of_o a_o faithful_a man_n shall_v be_v within_o the_o covenant_n or_o if_o of_o many_o there_o be_v but_o one_o bless_v the_o promise_n be_v perform_v yea_o which_o more_o be_v though_o the_o faithful_a man_n have_v never_o a_o good_a child_n yet_o if_o unto_o the_o thousand_o generation_n there_o be_v but_o one_o good_a the_o covenant_n be_v not_o break_v neither_o must_v we_o tie_v the_o lord_n his_o work_n so_o much_o to_o man_n that_o a_o good_a man_n may_v not_o have_v a_o evil_a son_n see_v though_o the_o lord_n visit_v not_o his_o sin_n yet_o he_o may_v visit_v the_o sin_n of_o some_o of_o his_o forefather_n to_o the_o three_o and_o four_o generation_n go_v before_o to_o the_o second_o we_o say_v that_o a_o evil_a father_n have_v a_o good_a child_n though_o the_o lord_n show_v not_o mercy_n to_o that_o particular_a man_n therein_o yet_o he_o may_v remember_v his_o promise_n to_o some_o of_o the_o forefather_n in_o the_o thousand_o generation_n go_v before_o and_o though_o that_o a_o evil_a man_n have_v no_o curse_a child_n yet_o the_o curse_n may_v be_v accomplish_v in_o the_o three_o and_o four_o generation_n follow_v wherefore_o not_o speak_v of_o election_n or_o reprobation_n which_o we_o leave_v only_o to_o the_o lord_n to_o make_v good_a or_o bad_a we_o exhort_v parent_n to_o use_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n to_o bring_v up_o their_o child_n so_o as_o they_o either_o by_o some_o good_a token_n may_v see_v they_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n of_o the_o covenant_n or_o at_o least_o be_v comfort_v in_o their_o own_o conscience_n if_o their_o child_n for_o some_o cause_n unknown_a refuse_v it_o in_o that_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o ability_n they_o have_v use_v all_o good_a and_o godly_a mean_n to_o bring_v they_o up_o well_o &_o offer_v they_o to_o god_n and_o if_o parent_n have_v cause_n to_o be_v grieve_v when_o thus_o travel_v in_o good_a education_n they_o can_v see_v good_a in_o their_o child_n how_o much_o more_o cause_n of_o grief_n may_v they_o have_v when_o they_o have_v use_v &_o bestow_v no_o labour_n at_o all_o to_o bring_v they_o up_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o yet_o many_o will_v be_v grieve_v for_o the_o one_o that_o will_v not_o for_o the_o other_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v if_o we_o wish_v to_o convey_v god_n his_o blessing_n to_o our_o posterity_n let_v we_o use_v the_o duty_n thereunto_o let_v we_o if_o we_o be_v loath_a to_o convey_v god_n his_o judgement_n to_o our_o child_n careful_o avoid_v the_o mean_n unto_o it_o and_o sure_o as_o it_o be_v a_o bless_a thing_n in_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n with_o simeon_n to_o depart_v in_o peace_n 2.29_o luke_n 2.29_o leave_v our_o wife_n child_n and_o servant_n member_n of_o christ_n spouse_n to_o christ_n child_n to_o god_n and_o servant_n to_o the_o lord_n so_o in_o death_n no_o one_o thing_n will_v be_v more_o grievous_a unto_o a_o man_n than_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v he_o the_o charge_n of_o so_o many_o soul_n to_o
