For this bridles our unruly corruptions, which be otherwise untoward and stubborn, to yield ready and cheerful obedience. 2 This shows the restraint and manner of performance, Col. 3. Ephes 6. It must be done in the Lord. When our submission goeth against the Commandments of the Lord, no good issue cometh from it: as in S•uls obeying the people, 1 Sam. 15.15, 21. and also of Aa•ons yielding to the children of Israel in making the calf, Exod. •2. for God is the highest: and again, God is our Jud••. This caution must be understood in all particular d••ies t•at ensue.
