Direct. 9. You must give up your selves in Covenant to God, if you would be saved; God hath put his hand and seal to the Covenant which he hath made through his Son with you, and you should put your hand to the Covenant and engage your selves unto the Lord; you were dedicated to the Lord by your Parents when you were baptized, then you understood not what was done; now you are arrived to years of understanding, you should make it your own act, and dedicate your selves to the Lord: and the more solemnly you enter into Covenant with God, the more strong Obligation it may be upon you to walk closely with God all your days: Some have directed to do it under hand-writing, subscribing the name, and some have put words into your mouths, which you may do it, in if you are not so well able to express the terms your selves; you have this done in Mr. Guthry and Mr. Allen's books, if those Books be not at hand, I shall set before you this Platform, which you may make use of in entering solemnly into Covenant with God.
