man_n doct._n be_v a_o very_a commendable_a thing_n there_o be_v many_o good_a man_n in_o that_o time_n but_o to_o be_v good_a so_o soon_o as_o abijah_n be_v when_o he_o be_v a_o child_n the_o

of_o joy_n unto_o john_n that_o he_o find_v 4._o child_n walk_v in_o the_o truth_n second_o because_o god_n commend_v moral_a and_o common_a goodness_n in_o the_o young_a man_n 21._o in_o the_o gospel_n christ_n be_v say_v to_o love_v he_o for_o his_o moral_a goodness_n and_o natural_a ingenuity_n 2._o the_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v so_o commendable_a in_o a_o young_a man_n to_o be_v a_o good_a man_n be_v this_o because_o their_o temptation_n be_v more_o and_o their_o affection_n be_v strong_a to_o carry_v they_o from_o god_n youth_n have_v a_o strong_a aptitude_n and_o proclivity_n to_o sin_n then_o any_o other_o age_n their_o blood_n be_v soon_o stir_v up_o to_o choler_n and_o their_o strength_n to_o lust_n as_o every_o relation_n have_v its_o special_a sin_n so_o every_o age_n of_o a_o man_n life_n old_a age_n be_v peevish_a and_o covetous_a middle_a age_n proud_a malicious_a and_o revengful_a young_a man_n be_v usual_o rash_a lustful_a and_o voluptuous_a and_o therefore_o paul_n bid_v 22._o timothy_n fly_v all_o youthful_a lust_n and_o therefore_o see_v youth_n be_v expose_v to_o so_o many_o temptation_n and_o subject_a to_o so_o many_o corruption_n it_o be_v rare_a to_o see_v young_a man_n good_a oh_o then_o be_v exhort_v you_o that_o be_v young_a to_o become_v religious_a betimes_o use_v and_o to_o quicken_v you_o hereunto_o consider_v 1._o if_o you_o be_v not_o good_a in_o your_o youth_n you_o can_v never_o use_v the_o psalmist_n argument_n cast_v i_o not_o off_o o_o lord_n in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o old_a age_n for_o sake_n i_o not_o when_o my_o

such_o a_o argument_n on_o his_o deathbed_n 2._o consider_v there_o be_v record_v in_o scripture_n many_o young_a man_n that_o be_v good_a of_o all_o sort_n and_o condition_n and_o of_o all_o

our_o example_n and_o encouragement_n 3._o consider_v that_o god_n in_o the_o dispensation_n of_o his_o grace_n bestow_v it_o upon_o young_a man_n and_o pass_v by_o the_o elder_n thus_o abel_n the_o young_a be_v righteous_a and_o cain_n wicked_a jacob_n the_o young_a brother_n love_v and_o esau_n hate_v thus_o david_n the_o young_a of_o jesses_n son_n 12._o and_o yet_o the_o best_a of_o they_o and_o the_o choose_a of_o the_o lord_n god_n do_v many_o time_n do_v as_o jacob_n do_v when_o he_o bless_v the_o child_n of_o joseph_n he_o stretch_v out_o his_o right_a hand_n 14._o &_o lay_v it_o upon_o the_o head_n of_o ephraim_n the_o young_a so_o do_v god_n in_o the_o dispensation_n of_o his_o grace_n many_o time_n pitch_v on_o the_o young_a god_n say_v as_o joseph_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n
