5. God never takes away the Gospel from a people, till the body of that people have thrust the everlasting Gospel from them. When, indeed, they have been so bold, as to thrust away the everlasting Gospel, God hath been severe unto them: But till the body of a people have thrust away the everlasting Gospel, God hath not taken it away from them, 2 Chronicles, the 36. Chapter, from the 15th verse to the end, God sent his Messengers early and late; they abused, slighted and scorned them, till there was no remedy. So in the 35. of Jeremiah, from the first to the twelfth; it is a famous Text for this. So in the thirteenth Chapter of the Acts, and the 45, 46, and 47. verses; Because you have thought your selves unworthy of Salvation, Lo, we turn to the Gentiles; till the Jews came to thrust away the everlasting Gospel, the Lord continued it to them.

6. The spreading of the everlasting Gospel, is the special means appointed by God, for the destruction of Antichrist: First he is to be consumed by the spirit of his Mouth, then destroyed by the brightness of his coming; the spirit of Faith and prayer in them that would be willing to lay down any thing rather than part with the Gospel, God will not put his blessed Church to the blush, he will not make them ashamed of their confidence.
