Use By way of exhortation let us be stirred up to search Gods word, where his promises are treasured up: and note what promises are there made for our comfort and encouragement: yea let us use the help of others, especially of those to whoml God hath given the tongue of the learned: yea (among and above all others) of them whom God hath placed in his steed, to whomm he hath committed the word of reconciliation: let us use their help for the finding out of Gods promises, and having knowledge of them, oft meditate and think on them, that so they may be the more firmly imprinted in our memories, as in a good treasury and store house, and the more ready to be brought forth for our use; like thatn good householder which bringeth forth out of his treasure, things both new and old. As we use our memories, so shall we find them ready to help⟨p. 270⟩ us in time of need:o God therefore prescribed unto his people divers helps for their memories.
