he that killeth with the Sword, must be killed with the Sword; here is the Patience and Faith of the Saints, Rev. 13. 10. While these things are accomplishing, and until they are accomplished, during that large season, until their end be, the Saints must exercise patient long-suffering, added unto Faith in the Promises, or they will not see the end of them. And this patient long-suffering with respect unto the Accomplishment of these Promises produceth these four effects. (1) A quiet resignation of all times and seasons unto the Sovereignty of God. The Soul possessed of it, quiets it self with this; it is not for me to know the times and seasons which God hath put in his own hand, Deut. 29. 29. (2) A due valuation of present enjoyments, which is especially required since the coming of Christ in the Flesh. (3) A ready Application of mind unto present Duties, Joh. 21. 22. (4) Waiting in Prayer for what we have not yet received.
