I shall begin with the first.
Doct. That when the Ark of God is in danger of being lost, the people of God have thoughtful heads and trembling hearts.
Or, if I may put this Doctrine into a Gospel-dress, take it thus:
That when the Gospel is in danger of losing, when Gospel-Ordinances are in danger of being lost, and Gospel-Ministers in danger of losing; that then the people of God have trembling heads, and careful and solicitous hearts about it.
Mark what I say: I say not, when the Ark is lost; for that was death to old Ely, that broke his neck: and it cost the life of Ely's daughter in Law: when the Ark of God was taken she took no comfort in her child, though a man-child she regarded: For the glory is departed from Israel, the Ark of God is taken.
