Q. 5. What encourages the Faith of the Saints?
A. The manifold sweet and sensible experiences of others, Psal. 74.14. Thou brakest the heads of Leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat for the people inhabiting the wilderness. And especially their own experiences, Joshua 23.14. —Ye know in all your hearts, and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spake concerning you: all are come to pass unto you, and not one thing hath failed thereof.
