He that will not believe, gives God the lie, for, He that believeth, &c. He that believeth 1not in every ordinance he comes to, he maketh God a liar, because every ordinance beareth record of Christ.

Consider again in the second place what a safe thing it is to believe, I speak to Gods people: As Surgeons when they let a man blood, bid him look another way, so when the devil letteth you blood, that is, holds you poring on your corruptions, look another way, I mean on God, and then you shall be safe from the devil, and the world, and your own corruptions. And that you may lay hold on the promises of God, take heed of those lets and impediments that might hinder you.
