it_o be_v good_a to_o take_v up_o god_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o father_n which_o make_v we_o rest_v upon_o he_o for_o all_o thing_n mat._n 6._o 25._o take_v no_o thought_n for_o your_o life_n

then_o those_o that_o will_v pray_v aright_o let_v this_o instruct_v and_o quicken_v they_o above_o all_o thing_n clear_v up_o your_o adoption_n that_o you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o call_v god_n father_n for_o otherwise_o when_o you_o come_v to_o pray_v it_o be_v a_o very_a lie_n to_o god_n as_o act_n 5._o 4._o when_o annanias_n speak_v false_a to_o the_o apostle_n say_v peter_n to_o he_o thou_o have_v not_o lie_v unto_o man_n but_o unto_o god_n why_o because_o he_o know_v all_o that_o be_v do_v in_o the_o world_n but_o much_o more_o do_v they_o lie_v unto_o god_n here_o this_o be_v

that_o live_v in_o sin_n and_o have_v no_o reverence_n and_o awe_n of_o god_n upon_o your_o heart_n shall_v come_v and_o pray_v to_o
he_o this_o be_v a_o lie_n which_o be_v tell_v to_o the_o very_a face_n of_o god_n but_o if_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n that_o all_o those_o which_o will_v pray_v aright_o must_v clear_v up_o their_o

from_o prayer_n for_o they_o have_v no_o right_a to_o it_o 2._o what_o shall_v they_o do_v which_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o receive_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o a_o child_n of_o god_n may_v have_v the_o right_n of_o child_n yet_o have_v not_o a_o sense_n of_o his_o adoption_n 3._o what_o be_v the_o evidence_n by_o which_o our_o adoption_n may_v be_v clear_v up_o to_o we_o how_o

answer_v you_o may_v see_v here_o the_o miserable_a condition_n of_o wicked_a man_n how_o much_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o pray_v and_o yet_o what_o a_o impossibility_n lie_v upon_o they_o of_o pray_v aright_o certain_o none_o shall_v desist_v from_o this_o duty_n of_o prayer_n because_o they_o can_v perform_v it_o aright_o for_o though_o we_o have_v lose_v our_o power_n and_o fitness_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n god_n shall_v lose_v his_o right_n and_o his_o power_n to_o our_o obedience_n there_o be_v a_o obligation_n and_o precept_n from_o god_n as_o a_o father_n by_o creation_n upon_o all_o mankind_n all_o which_o be_v reasonable_a creature_n they_o be_v to_o own_o god_n as_o a_o father_n in_o this_o way_n i_o say_v prayer_n be_v a_o homage_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n by_o
