1. Perfect knowledge of the revealed will of God, according to the measure of age, gifts, and means, that every man enjoyeth, so that the mind must apply it self more to the searching out of his revealed will, then of any other things. And the matter of this knowledge is the truths revealed of God, concerning our duty in precepts and prohibitions; and the reward of doing our duty in promises, or of not doing it in threats, in understanding of which, the mind must busy it self more then in all other knowledge, after the knowledge of God himself.
