Use 1. For a sad warning to wicked men, not to continue in such an estate; they know not what shall befall them, what times shall come upon them: but what evil doth come, will be sudden calamity, Job 21.13. 1 Thes 5.2, 3.

Use 2. To reprove the vanity and impiety of such as consult with witches about the events of things, and the times that should come over them; What got Saul by the witch of Endor? or Haman by sorcery? or Balack by Balaam?
