Mountague Walt. Knatchboll Thomas Eden Two most remarkable and visible Examples of Gods wrath against Covenant Breakers and Despisers The One Divine the Other Humane both Observable 1. Josuah having made a League and Covenant with the Gibeonites notwithstanding they had craftily circumvented and deceived Josua therein which remained inviolable among the children of Israel till the dayes of King Saul who in his foolish Zeal had it seems slain some of the Gibeonites and endeavoured to have destroyed them all from among the Israelites Hereupon the wrath of the Lord was greatly incensed against Israel which brake not out til King Davids dayes who was sorely vexed with a fearful famine over the whole Land for at least 3 years together incessantly which so greatly grieved and troubled David that he enquired of the Lord what might be the cause thereof And the Lord answered him that it was for Sauls sake and for his bloudy-house because he had broken the Covenant and slain the Gibeonites and his wrath would not be appeazed till holy David in just revenge of this breach of Covenant had delivered up unto the Gibeonites as they by Gods wil had demanded 7 of Sauls Sons or nearest Kindred to be hanged by them as they were and then and not till then was God pacified and the famine immediatly ceased Josua 9. 2. Sam. 21. 2. Vladislaus King of Hungary and Amurath the great Emperour of Turkie after fierce wars between them having concluded a happy and Honourable peace for the said King of Hungary and they having entered into a solemn League and Truce by interchangeable writings sealed and delivered each to other not long after Julian a Cardinal of Rome having perswaded him to renounce and violate this Covenant and Peace the King of Hungary secretly prepared mighty forces suddainly to invade and set upon the Turks Territories and Amurath the great Turk at last hearing of this unexpected invasion by Vladislaus made mighty preparation presently to oppose him entred into a pitcht field against him in brief Amurath observing a mighty slaughter of his men and himself and his whole Army in great danger to be utterly discomfitted and beholding also in the Hungarian-displayed-baners the picture of a Crucifix he presently pluckt forth the writing out of his bosom wherein the late League or Covenant was comprised and holding it up in his hand with his eyes cast up to heaven he said these words Behold thou crucified Christ this is the League thy Christians in thy name made with me which they have without cause violated Now if thou be a God as they say thou art revenge the wrong now done unto thy name and unto me and shew thy power upon thy pernicious people who in their deeds deny thee their God presently after this the fight was fiercely followed on both sides but it pleased the Lord that Vladislaus was put to the worst and in the fight slain by one of the Turks Janizaries and his head cut off and presented to Amurath in the midst of the battel who commanded it to be set on the top of a lance and carryed up and down in the field to the terror of the Christians who presently fled and left Amurath total victor with a most mighty and lamentable slaughter of the Christians From both which most pregnant and eminent examples we may profitably make this pertinent use and applycation That if the Lord God hath so tender a respect to the exact performance of Leagues and Covenants made not only 'twixt Man and Man Christian and Christian but even between Christians and Turks or Infidels such as the Gibeonites and this Amurath were O how much more tenderly affected and severely exasperated wil he be for the breach of Covenants made betwixt his own glorious Holyness who is a Consuming fire and Wormling-Man who is but as Combustible-Stubble in his presence O consider this and lay it timely and sadly to heart O all ye Malignants and Schismaticks who now adayes dare so Audaciously and Maliciously scorn and contemn and so Hypocritically to violate and break This so Rational and Religious so holy and honest yea I say so pious and precious a Covenant most duly and deliberately taken heretofore by very many of you O whoever ye be and wheresoever ye sit and shroud your selves tremble yea tremble I say and be astonisht and confounded at your so treacherous and most audacious dealing with the most high God and us And for the same expect for certain Gods Word is my warrant you see for what I say and these 2 examples ratifie it expect I say the curse of God like a flying Roul even some suddain and sore plague or punishment inevitably to fall upon you or yours if not upon you and yours if ye timely and truly repent not which the Lord give unto you as space so grace to perform and do it Amen By JOHN VICARS LONDON Printed by John Macock for John Rothwel and Edward Husbands 1648.
