Mark then what follows, a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down, nor one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken, but there the glory of God will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams, wherein shall no galley with oar, neither shall gallant Ship pass thereby. The kingdoms of the world though they seem to be built upon mountains, yet God will toss them up and down, and they shall come to nothing: but the Church when it is made a quiet habitation (observe it) though it be but a tabernacle & set upon stakes, yet this tabernacle shall not be taken down,1 nor one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, though it be tied by lines, yet not a cord thereof shall be broken. Yea in this the glory of the Church doth consist, for so saith the Text there, when it is a quiet habitation, the glory of God shall be there, God shall dwell among them as a glorious God.
