But not to speak parabolically, but plainly, I say again, if ever there were a time that did command the most importune and uncessant prayers of all Gods ministers and people, now is the time; was there ever time, wherein the Church of God was more shaken, more in danger to have both her pillars of truth and peace broken, reduced to dust, to nothing, then at this time? The enemies of the Church have a long time sought to undermine the truth, but now, they raise Armes against the truth, they plant open battery against the truth. And for our peace, where is it? Terras reliquit, it hath taken to it self the wings of a dove, and forsaking earth is fled to heaven, frighted hēce with the sound of the trumpet, the alarum of warre, and the cryes of bloud. We may chronicle of our age, that which the Prophet Azariah spake of some ages of Israel, 2 Chron. 15.5, 6. In those times there was no peace to him that went out, |
