Christians, I know God may, and doth oftentimes convey his comforts by the lips of his faithful Messengers, and Servants, 1Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God, speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, &c. speak to her heart (as the Hebrew phraseth it) I say the Prophets were but Gods mouth to deliver the message, and so are the Ministers of the Gospel, and other of his Saints; but be sure the comforts which you administer be Gods comforts, see that ye can say with the Apostle in another case, 2That, which I have received of the Lord, deliver I unto you. Be sure what you dispense from God be these words, be sure your words of comfort be none but such as Christ himself would speak were he upon the place: Do not my words do good, 3saith the Lord? Yes, they be Gods words only that can comfort fainting souls: But what is the chase to the wheat, saith the Lord?
