First, Here you see the misery of wicked men; they are unfixed; they know not where to rest when troubles come; they have no God to go to trust to. Sinners, they are like a Ship without Anchor, tossed with the Storms, that hath no where to put in for harbour; they are like the Old World; when the Flood came, they had no Ark to trust to. The wicked are like King Saul in an hour of danger, 1 Sam. 28.15. I am sorely distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me. A flagitious sinner is like a Soldier in Battle, ⟨p. 116⟩where the Bullets fly about, and he is without Armour, and hath no Garrison to trust unto. Beloved, it is Faith makes the heart sixth in troublesome times. Faith doth ingarrison the Soul in Gods Attributes, and makes it like a Tower walled in with Rocks, that is impregnable.

A flagitious sinner is like a Souldier in Battel, ⟨p. 116⟩where the Bullets flie about, and he is without Armour, and hath no Garrison to trust unto. Beloved, it is Faith makes the heart fixt in troublesom times. Faith doth ingarrison the Soul in Gods Attributes, and makes it like a Tower walled in with Rocks, that is impregnable.
