Thirdly, Know that it is not the knowing, nor the talking, nor the reading man-but the doing man, that at last will be found the happiest ma...

Kings are not bound to give their subjects a reason of their doings, and shall we bind God to give us a reason of his doings, who is the King of kings and Lord of Lords, and whose will is the true and only rule of justice? "The general grounds and reasons which God has laid down in his word why he afflicts his people, as-that is for their profit, for the purging away of their sins, for the reforming of their lives and for the saving of their...
