Third Con. Public calamities, except when they come upon a people for Righteousness sake, are the evident tokens of Gods anger. When God doth strike a nation or a people with war, or with pestilence, or with famine, or the like this is a manifest token of Gods anger with such a nation or people. This you may see throughout the book of Judges. Still it was when the people had sinned, and God was angry, that these public calamities were brought upon them, Judg. 2. 13, 14, 19, 20, 21. and 3. 7, 8. and 10. 6. There you may see that public calamities did proceed from the sins that were among them. And if sin be a sign of Gods anger, you may easily make application. Should not we fear and tremble? should not we humble our selves in the dust, and clothe our selves with sackcloth? God hath sent all his three great plagues together upon our nation, Famine, Sword, and War. O apply this, and see that you be sadly affected with Gods displeasure against our Nation.
