Yes.1 For when God destroys his enemies, he either takes them away by a weak hand, as Jer. 50. 45. The least of the flock shall draw them out; Or they shall perish by their own hands, as Psalm. 9. 16. The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands; Or they shall be destroyed without hands, As Job 34. 20. The mighty shall be taken away without hands. And is this true may the soul say, that the enemies of the Church shall perish by a weak hand, or by their own hand, or without hands; then will I never sink, and despair in my heart, or give ill language to Gods faithfulness, though the condition of Gods Churches be never so low, though the condition of the enemies be never so high.

The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands; Or they shall be destroyed without hands, As Job 34. 20. The mighty shall bee taken away without hands. And is this true may the soule say, that the enemies of the Church shall perish by a weake hand, or by their owne hand, or without hands; then will I never sinke, and despaire in my heart, or give ill language to Gods faithfulnesse, though the condition of Gods Churches be never so low, though the condition of the enemies be never so high.
