The life and death of Mr. Tho. Wilson, minister of Maidstone, in the county…

As Jacob when he was dying worshipped, leaning on his staff, Heb. 11. 21. So he on his dying bed was frequent in praying to and praising his God. It was but two nights before his death, though he were very sick, yet he made his bed his Pulpit, out of which he preached to some that came to see him, concerning ⟨p. 62⟩the preciousness of the promises, bid them look the 2 Pet. 1. 4. Whereby are given unto us exceeding rich and precious promises, we are made partakers of the Divine Nature, and concerning the preciousness of Christ to Believers, desired them to turn to 1 Pet. 2. 7. Unto you that believe he is precious; And oh, with what affectionate expressions would this Minister and Member of Christ Commend his head, the Pearl of great Price, and the Promises he had purchased, saying to his visitors, that one Promise was more precious then a World.
