A brief answer to a small book writtenA brief ansvver to a small book written

From the first Creation of man God hath transacted with man by a Covenant, and hath always comprehended the Parents and children together in his Covenant, thus it was with Adam in innocency, the children of Adam were comprehended with him in the Covenant of works, as we know by woeful Experience. After the fall, God brought Adam under the Covenant of grace in Christ, and in that Covenant he comprehended his Seed with him. When God called Abraham, he brought him under a Covenant, and comprehended his Seed with him, I am thy God, and thy Children's God. And that was our Gospel Covenant, touching which the Apostle saith, the promise belongeth to you and to your Children, and thus it is with all the Gospel Churches, both Jews and Gentiles, even with all Believers, whom the Lord our God shall call. And it is the Infinite mercy of God to bind himself to us by Covenant, both to strengthen our weak Faith, and that his Covenant mercy might bind and stay the revenging hand of Justice from destroying us for our iniquities. God remembereth his Covenant and therefore spareth us and our children, as we may see, Psal. 105.8, 9, 10. and ver. 40, 41, 42. and Psal. 106.43, 44, 45. and Psal. 89.30 31, 32, 33, 34. be thankful therefore to God for his Covenant with us, and with our children, exclude them not from this great mercy.
