1. This Doctrine proclaims the Equity of God. To an upright man he will show himself upright; why then his ways are equal. Though clouds and darkness be round about him, [his ways be hidden] yet Judgment and Righteousness are the habitation of his Throne, [they are always holy, just and equal.] Psal. 97. 2. He that hath a cause to be tried for Land or Life, counts it a privilege that he shall have justice; and that at least, every man may expect from God. His ways are equal, though our ways be ⟨p. 124⟩unequal, Psal. 99. 4. The Kings strength (and who is that but God?) loveth judgment, thou doest establish equity. So he doth by his Rule and by his Example. Conclude therefore whatever his dealing is with you or others, that he is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
