Liberty.
When men thinke to use their libertie,
they loose it.
We are more prone to desire outward li∣berty,
then to know how to use it.
Such as plot and plead for liberty for the
flesh, are very carnall.
It is not fit to give young people halfe
the liberty they would take.
Young people doe not know, not will be∣leeve
how slippery their state is, till they
come to feele it by their falls.
Many study more how to keep outward li∣berty,
then how to part with it; the last is
the best.
It is the greatest liberty to enjoy God, and
a free heart to serve him, and to have the lets
removed.
Too many of the Saints abuse their Chri∣stian
liberty.
To be free from sin, is liberty indeed.
