presumptuous disobedience the curses of the Law 3. There is the Contignation and covering And here let me speak one word to to you who are Church-wardens and are entrusted with the care of Presenting Disorders to the Governours of the Church to beseech you to consider the Religion and Sacrednesse of that Oath which in the House of God and as you expect helpe from God you promise to performe with the reverence of which Oath and fear of Gods dreadfull Name were you so throughly affected as indeed you ought wee should not see what with grief wee doe so great contempt of Gods House and Ordinances as if they were common and profane things many scarce throughout the whole yeare making their Confession of sinnes to God in the Assembly of his People many seldom or never hearing any one Psalme of David or Chapter of the holy Scriptures read unto them nay many neglecting the whole Liturgie of the Church and dropping in after the Sermon is begun and though the Preacher have taken sad paines for what in the Name of God he speaks unto them having not yet the patience to stay till that peice of the hour be ended Certainly David had learned more reverence to the Lords House I was glad when they said Let us go into the House of the Lord Psal. 122.1 And so had Cornelius who with his kindred and neer friends waited for the coming of Peter Acts 10.24 And so had Solomon who teacheth men to wait daily at the gates and to give attendance at the postes of the doores of Gods House Prov. 8.34 And the Prophecies foretell the like of Gods People under the Gospell that they should call upon one another and should Goe speedily to pray before the Lord and to seeke the Lord Zach. 8.21 I speake this in zeale to the service of God and to the reverence of his Sanctuary and beseech you by the sacrednesse of your Oath and for the feare of Gods Name to thinke upon it 3. Generall and so all the People in their places must labour by inoffensive and holy lives and by the peaceable fruits of righteousnesse to cover the Church wherein they live from the reproaches of all those who caluminate our Doctrine and Worship as tending to licentious prophane rebellious or superstitious living And now when all this is done Except the Lord build the House they labour dut in vaine that build it Paul may plant and Apollo may water but his Blessing it is which must perfect all Wee all are but walles of mudde which may easily bee broken through Hee only is a Wall of fire which no enemies can approach unto And therefore wee must all and wee in our Calling especially bee frequent and urgent in our Praiers to him to preserve the Peace to repaire the Breaches and to build up the Walles of his Ierusalem that he would give us eyes to see and hearts to love and mouths to utter and lives to expresse the praises of his Word And that hee would give his Word a free passage into the heads and hearts into the consciences and conversations of all his People that so beginning at the unity of the Faith and knowledge of the Son of God we may grow up together unto a perfect man to the measure of the stature of the fulnesse of Christ which the Lord grant for the merits mercies of his Beloved Sonne Jesus Christ the Righteous to Whom with the Father and the blessed Spirit Three Persons and One Immortall and onely Wise God be all Glory Majesty and Thanks-giving now and for evermore Amen FINIS a Jam. 1.25 2.8 b Act. 15.10 c Ezek. 20.25 vid.
