But may this be in the duties of Gods worship? yea, thereby this may be; thus, When men shall think by this to cover any sin they live in, by their performing of duties, this is treacherous dealing and playing false in the Covenant.
The sins of the Saints which break Covenant with him are sins of Obs. 10 a double dye; other mens sins are rebellions against God, but theirs are treacheries.
The want of the right knowledge of God, is the main cause of breach Obs. 11 of Covenant with God. Dan. 11.32. And such as do wickedly against the Covenant, shall be corrupt by flatteries; but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. Who shall be ⟨p. 626⟩corrupted by flatteries? those that know God? No, they shall be strong and do great exploits, such shall be employed by him in his work.
