My brethren, let us learn from hence therefore, To seek 1after, and rest upon those things which we may be able always to give an account of where they are, if it should be asked us; the Saints, if it should be asked them, Where is their God? they can give an account, It's the God of Heaven that we have trusted in, it's the God that is in the highest Heavens, and in the hearts of the Saints, we can tell where our God is: It is just with God that wicked men should be insulted over, because they insult ⟨p. 528⟩over the Saints; so if God do but seem to absent himself from his People, they will presently insult over them, yea, where's your God? where's your Prayers and Fastings? Have not some of you heard such language many times in this Kingdom? There's no such time but the Saints of God can give an Answer to this [Where] they can tell where their Fastings and Prayers are: but the wicked are not able to tell what is become of their Confidences and boastings.
