O unthankful World, little do you know what you are doing, while you are persecuting the Messengers of the Lord. These are they whose business is (under Christ) to save you. Whom have you reproached and blasphemed? Against whom have you exalted your voice, and lifted your eyes on high? Isaiah. 37. 23. These are the servants of the most high God, that show unto you the way of salvation, Acts 16. 17. and do you thus requite them, O foolish and unwise? Deut. 32. 6. O sons of ingratitude, ⟨p. 24⟩against whom do you sport your selves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? Isaiah. 57. 3. These are the Instruments that God useth to convert and save you: and do you spit in the face of your Physicians, and throw your Pilots overboard? Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.
