Omnis morbus animae habet in Scripturis medicamentum suum Euery disease of the soule hath a medicine in the Scriptures And the most effectuall medicine ordained for Tribulation is Patience therefore saith the Spirit in my Text Be patient in tribulution FIrst to open the words The word translated tribulation comes of a Verbe which signifies to pinch as the foote is pinched in a strait shooe or to presse as Grapes are squeezed in the Wine-presse Metaphorically t is vsed for to afflict or to bring into any strait of body or mind and so the substantiue signifies any thing which is hard and crosse to the nature of man yea any euill which we suffer in bodie or mind The euils which are here meant by tribulation are either ordinary or extraordinary I cal those ordinary e●its to which all mankind is subiect more or lesse as labour care trauell sicknesse diseases aches paines wants griefes for death of friends and other ineuitable casualties Extraordinary euills are either persecution inflicted vpon the godly by the wicked or wrongs which are done by men of the world for malice or couetousnes or meerly out of a mischieuous disposition or calamities which can bee impute directly to no second cause but to Gods own hand Now concerning all these kinds of euill comprehended vnder the word Tribulation the Apostle speaking by inspiration commaunds vs to bee patient The word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 translated patience signifies Quietly abiding vnder And we may be said quietly to abide vnder any tribulation when we neither fret nor doe any thing against godlinesse or any part of Gods Word but walke in our calling orderly as if no such thing had happened vnto vs. This patience in the Old Testament is termed silence Esay 30. 15.
