Finally, Hath not the Lord ordained you to be his *Prophets? and shall not your souls be moved, neither at the thundering Charge at the entrance, nor the sweet Promise in the close of those piercing and powerful words, Jer. 1. 17, 18. Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise and speak unto them all that I command thee; be not dismayed at their fears, lest I confound thee before them: For behold I have made thee this day, a defenced City, and an iron Pillar, and brazen walls against, &c. And they shall fight against thee, but shall not prevail against thee, for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee. The passage seems like the stormy Wind, the amazing Earthquake, and the Fire of God, in the Vision of the Prophet, ending in the 2sweet, soft and still Voice. O let the Words of the living God work either upon your Fear or upon your Hope.
