hFear no• them that kill the body, but are not ⟨p. 178⟩able to kill the soul, Phil. 1.28.
- hMat 10.26.28, 31. Rev. 2.•0.
Christ compares his Church ito a company of horses in Pharaohs Chariots, which in all probability were the best in Egypt, and like to the war-horse, which the Lord describes to Job, Job 39. very courageous in the hottest battle. Christ by this metaphor hints unto us, That his will is, that we should be very bold and courageous, in whatsoever we do, or suffer for his sake, and that he expects it at our hands; his will is, that we should be like a company of horses in Pharaohs Chariots, full of spirits and courage, in doing and suffering, and not like a company of Jades in a Dung-Cart, spiritless and unfit to bear any thing, for his sake.
