The law unsealed

Thirdly. After the Administration of Baptism, we fail. First, In forgetting all our engagements▪ 2. In growing careless to maintain any suitable frame, and falling carnally in our Mirth on such occasions. 3. Not being much in Prayer for the Children, nor insisting or continuing in Prayer for the blessing. 4. Not being Faithful according to our engagements, in Educating them. 1. In knowledge, that they may be so trained up as to know what God is. 2. In the fear of God, pressing it upon them by frequent Exhortations. 3. In giving them good Example. 4. In giving them seasonable Correction (but rather sparing them though to their hurt) when there is cause of Correction. 5. Being also unfaithful in not seriously minding them of their engagements by Baptism. And 6. Much more by giving them evil Example. 7. Conniving at their faults. 8. Advising them to what is sinful, or sending them where they may meet with snares, or suffering them to go there. 9. Providing for them the things of this Life, without respect to that Life which is to come. 10. Not enabling our selves that we may discharge our Duty to them. 11. Not insisting to press those things upon them, that concern their Souls always; thinking it is enough that sometimes they be spoken to. 12. Never purposely stirred up and driven by that Tie to see for their good. Nor 13. Repenting our many short comings. Nor 14. Lamenting for what we see sinful in them, when they follow not faithful advice. These are things that would carefully be looked unto, both by Fathers and Mothers, and all such as engage for the Christian Education of the Children, whom they present to that Ordinance.
