Inference 5.
1How needful is it before we engage our selves against any person or way, to be well satisfied and resolved that it is a wicked person or practice that we oppose? You see the world generally runs upon a mistake in this matter. O beware of doing you know not what. For though you do you know not what, Satan knows what he is doing for you. He blinds your eyes, and then sets you to work, knowing that if you should but see what you are doing, you would rather die, than do it. You may now do you know not what; but you may afterward have time enough to reflect on, and lament what you have done. You may now do you know not what, and hereafter you may not know what to do. O beware therefore what you do.
