Proverbs30:5

And therefore you, Ithiel and Ucal, must not expect the full knowledge of Divine Mysteries from me, nor from any Man, but from the Word of God, which is a certain rule both of your belief and practice, because every part and parcel of it is Holy, and True and Good, and there is not the least mixture of falshood and folly in it, as there is in all the words and writings of men.

Which supposeth their knowledge of him by his word, Psal. 9. 10. and contains their reliance upon his Promises joined with Obedience to his Commands.
