DOCT. That Christs dearest friends forsook and left him alone,1 in the time of his greatest distress and danger.
- 1Doct.
This Doctrine containing only matter of fact, and that also so plainly delivered by the pens of the several faithful Evangelists. I need spend no longer time in the proof of it, than to refer you to the several Testimonies they have given to it. But I shall rather choose to fit and prepare it for Use, by explaining these four Questions, First, Who were the Sheep that were scattered from their Shepherd, and left him alone? Secondly, What evil was there in this their scattering? Thirdly, What were the grounds and causes of it? ⟨p. 372⟩Fourthly, And lastly, what was the Issue and event of it?
