An exposition of the assemblies catechism with practical inferences from each question as it…

A. Yes, there is: Innocents may be murdered under the forms and solemnities both of Justice and Religion. So Naboth was murdered by Jezebel, 1 Kings 21.12, 13. They proclaimed a fast, and sit Naboth on high among the people. And there came in two men children of Belial, and sat before him: And the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the King. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones that he dyed. And the Martyrs by bloody Papists. And this strongly proves a day of Judgment ▪ Eccles. 3.16, 17. And moreover, I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there. I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose, and for every work.
