Suffer'd so great a Famine of the Word that they were ready to Faint and to Perish for want of a Preaching Minister then let us have a great Care that we do not Provoke God to take away this Inestimable Blessing from us For at present blessed be God for it We have the Bible in our own Tongue that we may Read it at Home and we have some Few Ministers that Catechize as well as Preach out of it that we may be Edified when we are in Church And God increase their Number for Christ his Sake But if we make Light of this Unspeakable Mercy we can not possibly have it long For If we do not heartily Repent of all our Sins our Candlestick will Quickly be removed from us Rev. 2. 5. And if we do not bring forth Fruit meet for Repentance the Kingdom of God will shortly be taken away from us and given to a Nation bringing forth the Fruit thereof Matthew 21. 43. Nay further If we come to Church and do not come there with our Souls as well as our Bodies Mark this as long as you live If our Souls do not Think upon what the Minister Says to us out of Gods Word but do Think of our Studies our Shops our Fields or Such a Man or Such a Woman or the like If our Souls be Wandering and Roving abroad while the Minister is Reading Praying Catechizing or Preaching Then we Provoke God to take away the Gospel from us Yea and God himself has long Since Threatned to do So for this very fault as Little as you take it to be For thus Saith the Lord Isai 29. 13 14. For as much as this people draw near me with their Mouth and with their Lips do honour me but have removed their Heart far from me Therefore Behold I will proceed to do a Marvellous work among this people even a Marvellous work and a Wonder For the Wisdom of their Wise Men shall Perish and the Vnderstanding of their Prudent Men shall be Hid. And therefore when ever you come to Church with your Mouths and with your Lips but leave your Hearts and Souls at Home or Suffer them to Wander and to Rove abroad and to Mind any thing Save onely what Gods Minister says to you out of God's own Word Then have a Care have a great Care That the Wisdom of your Wise Men do not Perish and the Vnderstanding of your Prudent Men be not Hid And the Gospel which is the Word of Life the Gospel which is the Word of Salvation the Gospel which is the Word of God be not taken away from You for ever and given to Others that will make a better Vse of it From which dreadful Judgement good Lord deliver us all for Christ his Sake Amen Amen FINIS A Catalogue of BOOKS Sold by Tho.
