And that either there is no God nor Maker of all Things or if there is one that he has abandoned the Works of his Hands that he does not see through the thick Cloud that it is in vain to serve him and that his Wrath is but a Word made use of by crafty Men to frighten Fools This is the Language of Scoffers and a degree of Folly beyond all others even the venturing upon Eternal Misery upon the maddest set of Principles that ever were put together These are the Follies that we must guard against lest if after God has delivered us once more we should again relapse into them and that then our latter End should prove worse than the Beginning If God should now according to the Riches of his Grace deliver us from all our Enemies and from the hand of all that hate us and should establish that which he has wrought for us and add to the Settlement of his true Religion and the happy Constitution both of Church and State among us a secure and honourable Peace a fullness of Plenty and a freedom of Trade and should carry the Glory of our Soveraigns so high as to make them the Arbiters of Christendom and the Protectors of all Protestants If I say after so great an accession of Wealth and Prosperity of Success and Glory to us we should then give our selves up to our Vices as if all our Blessings were only intended to furnish out our Luxury with all the variety of Entertainments if we should grow proud of the Ancient Valour of our Nation while we degenerate from it our selves and by despising our Neighbours should both make them stronger and our selves weaker if we should take up our Animosities as if we had only made a Truce with one another while we had a mighty Enemy to deal with and so would revive these Follies which God has by an Interposition of so many Providences called on us to forget if we of the Church should forget all our promises and resolve to yield nothing for the gaining of our Brethren but should let our Minds rather be soured with the old Leaven of bitterness and malice If those who depart from us should rather study to strengthen their Party than to hearken to the Counsels of Peace if those of a higher Rank should become swell'd with Pride or softned with Voluptuousness If the Clergy should become Lazy Covetous and Ambitious and the whole Nation should again break loose into open Vice and divide into Parties and Factions But above all if Impiety and Blasphemy Scoffing and Atheism should again be in vogue and pass for Wit and Spirit then upon so fatal an abuse of God's Mercies we should have reason to look for Judgments as eminent as such our Ingratitude should be and that the return of Wrath should be so heavy that our Portion should be to perish with an everlasting Destruction from the Presence of the Lord and from the Glory of his Power But if we become so wise and so good as to improve the Deliverance that is already come to us and those which we have in prospect to the Noble ends for which they are design'd by God then we may expect to see an accomplishment of all the other Blessings which David promises to himself and to his people in this Psalm That Mercy and Truth should meet together and Righteousness and Peace should kiss each other That a Spirit of Truth and Honesty and Love and Charity should run through the whole Nation and knit it altogether in one Body that Truth should become so natural to them that like the growth of the Earth it should spring up of it self and that Righteousness should like a dew from Heaven cover the whole Land that God should bless them with every good thing and that they should have a rich Soil and fruitful Seasons and that Deliverances should be near or present at every return of Danger for preserving those that fear God and the top of all that Glory should dwell in their Land By which is to be understood that Cloud of Glory which was between the Cherubins and was the Symbol of God's Presence among them that is That the True Religion with all the happy Characters of God's Favour should be still continued among them by which they were the Glory of all Lands and all the Nations of the Earth were to be blest in them This as applied to us is that God may establish and continue his True Religion among us that he may watch over and preserve those whom he has set over us and that as their Lives have been hitherto a Series of Wonders so he may perfect that which concerns them and bless the Work of their Hands and that the whole Nation may return to its Ancient Honesty and Vertue and that all Differences and Divisions may be composed we being animated with one Heart and one Spirit and that to all this the Blessings of Peace and Plenty may be joined which God of his Infinite Mercy grant through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen FINIS Books lately Printed for Richard Chiswell BIshop Burnet's Sermon before the King and Queen on Christmass-day 1689. on 1 Tim. 3. 16.
