This example of the Jews, that were once a most famous people, but are now become the Synagogue of Satan must be set before our eyes continually. For when all the world were rejected, they stood high in Gods favour: but now for their unbelief they are cast off from God, and are become the Synagogue of the devil. Which must admonish us, Not to be high minded but to fear, Ro. 11.20. For if God spared not the natural branches, them that were his first chosen people, he will not spare us that are but wild olives grafted into the true vine. We must therefore take heed of unbelief, and labour for true faith, which we must testify by obedience in our lives & conversations.
