A DISCOURSE UPON THE Fifth of November.
Exod. 15.9, 10. The Enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword; my hand shall destroy them; Thou didst blow with thy wind; the Sea covered them; they sank as Lead in the mighty waters.
AN Anniversary Commemoration of a memorable Deliverance falling upon this Day, hath caused a diversion of my thoughts, to look back, not only upon a mercy never to be forgotten, but to look forward to that Deliverance which is to come parallel to this in the Text. Israel was a Type of the Church, Pharaoh a type of the Churches Enemies in all Ages of the world, both of the spiritual Enemy, Satan, and of the temporal, his Instruments.
The Deliverance was a type of the Deliverance that Christ wrought upon the Cross by his Blood. Also, of that Christ works by his power upon his Throne, the one from the Reign of Sin, the other from the Empire of Antichrist.
