CHAP. XIX. Enjoyment of communion with Gods people, is worth the enduring much affliction.
WE are now come to the sixth doctrinal 1Point that we have here in this part of Moses choice, That the enjoyment of communion with Gods people, is worth the enduring of a great deal of affliction. Moses chooses to suffer affliction with the people of God; he saw they were Gods people, and that it was a good thing to be with them, and therefore rather then he would not be with them, he was content to lose all the honours of Pharaohs Court, and put himself under the sorest affliction that he could meet withal, nothing should hinder him from joining with them.
