1Again Noah was directed by God to a course of saving himself from the flood with his family and many other creatures, and accordingly did escape the common destruction. This is a special favour of God to deliver his people from common calamities, especially that eternal destruction of hell fire that must overwhelm the world. This benefit God will give to all his Saints, and safety also from common calamities when the time serves, and so far as is fit, if they strive against the common sins by mourning and oppose the same. God will be an ark unto them in the midst of a deluge, and they may triumph as David, 2I will not fear though the waters rage, and though the mountains he cast into the midst of the sea, as then they were. Let all Gods people set themselves resolutely against common sins, and God will preserve them from common judgements.
