Remedy IV.
Trust not to the clearness of your own unassisted eyes, nor to the strength of your single reason; but consult in such cases, with others that are pious and judicious, especially your godly and faithful Ministers; and hearken to the Counsels they give you. Paul justly wondered that the Galatians were so soon removed; and well he might: For had they not a Paul to consult with, before they gave their consent to false Teachers? Or if he was at a distance from them about the work of the Lord in remote places, had they no godly and judicious Friends near them, whose Prayers and assistances they might call in, as Daniel did? Dan. 2. 17. Woe unto him that is alone in a time of temptation, except the Lord be with him by extraordinary assistance and direction.
