9. He that is thus led by the Spirit of God, is led by the written Word of God, the revealed Will of God, which is the instrument, rule, and demonstrator of the Spirit of God, in reference to man; and he that hath the Word of God, or might have, and will not be led by it, hath no ground to conclude, that he is led by the Spirit of God, as it is evident by Isai. 8.20. These leaders (to wit) (the Word and ⟨p. 143⟩the Spirit,) are never opposite one to another.
10. He that is thus led by the Spirit of God, is chary of the sword of the Spirit (the Word of God) and fights with it against all his spiritual enemies, the World, the Flesh, and the Devil; this is evident in the natural Son of God, Jesus Christ, Mat. 4.4, 7, 10. and in many of the adopted Children of God, of whom we read in Scripture. Note this, all you that slight the Wor• of God and fight not with it, but against it, and yet make your boast, that you are led by the Spirit.
