And Aaron shall beare the Iudgement of the children of Israell vpon his hart continually And what is this for but to shew the continuall care that Christ hath of his Church For Aaron is a figure and resemblaunce of Christ the precious stones are a figure of the Church of Christ. Aaron must weare them vpon his breast that is in his sight so Christ hath his people alwayes in his sight As it was impossible for Aaron to forget the stones which were in his sight so is it impossible that Christ our true Aaron should forget his people which beléeue in his name but hath them in continuall remembraunce being now gone into the holy of holies that is the kingdome of his father the most holy place of all And the same care which the Lord Iesus had of the Iewes his choise people at the first the same care hath he of the Gentils that is of vs and other nations of the earth which beléeue in him because the wall of separation is pulled down and there is now no respect of persons with the Lord but in all nations he that feareth the Lord and worketh righteousnesse is accepted of him As for me thou doest set me before thy face for euer This then sheweth that none are in such safetie as the godly none so wel guarded as the godly none so well prouided for as the godly for God doth set them before his face for euer so that howsoeuer the world goeth yet God doth alwayes remēber thē as he did remember Abraham whē Sodome was destroyed for as he was mindfull of his promise which he made to our forefather Abraham which is called the father of the faithfull so will he be no lesse mindful of his promise which he made to his séede y t is to all y e faithfull for euer Because he is the Lord ●haungeth not Who dareth offer violence to the Princes beloued in the presence of the Prince Who shall presume to take the ●●gnet off the Princes finger Who will take a praye out of the Lions claw And who shal snatch the Lordes chosē out of his hand whō he hath set as a signet vpon his right hād I● there be no safetie in the presēce of y e owner where is safetie Nature doth teach vs no lesse The child fearing to be h●●rt of any body runneth before his father or his mother and then thinkes him selfe safe Nature hath taught the very dogge to runne before hi● master when he feareth any body that commeth to hurt him but yet these may be de●ceiued for what if the father be so vnnaturall that he will not rescue his child or if he be willing what if he be not able being ouermatched or if he be able and willing at one time what if his minde chaunge what if his affection be estranged at another time if he be not altered in affection what if he knoweth not when his sonne is iniuried if he knoweth when what if he knoweth not by whom if he knoweth by whom what if he cannot come by him And many things moe what then why then Vltra posse non ●st esse He can do no more thē he can But with the Lord our heauenly father it is not so for as he is able being almightie so he is most willing being our father through his sonne Christ. As he is willing so is he vnchaūgeable as he is vnchaungeable so hath he all knowledge and therefore knoweth by whō at what time in what place in what maner and for what cause any thing is done in the whole world and as he hath all knowledge so is his Maiestie euery where present therfore there is no flying from his presēce And as he is euery where so is he iust and true and therefore cannot be bribed nor peruerted as he is all in all things so all things are his and of him are all things whatsoeuer they be and therefore he hath néede of nothing What shall we say more shall not therefore Gods children be most safe most happy before his face in whose presence is life and at whose right hand are pleasures for euermore no doubt of it Let the wicked then tremble let Sanballat and Tobias be astonished let Ashur Pashur be abashed let Corah and his cōpanie be confounded let Ioab and Iudas go hang them thēselues with their trecherous kisses and their traiterous conspiracies let Ananias dissēble his wif● take his part and let them perish in their hypocrisie And the foxes which séeke to destroy the Lordes vineyeard and their cubbes by whose vndermininges the vine hath bu● small grapes let them take héede that they be not taken in their owne wilinesse fo● they cannot go so closely nor yet so cuning●ly to worke against Gods children but th● Lord ●ée●h them well inough For he hath se● his children before his face for eu●● This was it y e dismayed Pa●rie y ● bloud●butcher when he came with a full resoluti●● to lay hands vpon the Lordes annointed h● saw in her very countenaunce the face 〈◊〉 God that is some litle sparke of his Maiestie which did so coole his courage that his traiterous hand was not able to accomplish the bloudie deuise of his hart the Lordes name be blessed for euer And were it possible for her to haue escaped so many daungers as she hath passed through euen from her infancie if the Lord had not set her before his face and geuen his louing kindnesse charge to waite vpon hir The Lord therefore set her in his sight and defend her with the light of his countenaunce for euermore But if this be true will some say why do the wicked séeme to preuaile so often as they do against those which feare the Lord Surely it is true they séeme indéede to preuaile against them when they confounde themselues And for the most part their laughter is but from the téeth outward and the end of their mirth is heauinesse But y e truth is so that God séeing his children to were proude of his presence and to forget themselues like
