And Jews and Gentiles may suspect the whole Gospel, because they see Men so peremptory about things which are not revealed in the Gospel, and shall see their false-hood appearing to all; be not ⟨p. 70⟩peremptory in your determinations about the time of Christs coming, nor about the place where, for neither is revealed in Scripture; Christ did deny his Disciples when they asked him where he should come. Luke 17.37. And they answered and said, where Lord? And he said unto them, where the body is, thither will the Eagles be gathered together. Christ told them of the destruction of Jerusalem, and of the end of the World, then said the Disciples, but where Lord wilt thou come? Christ only gives them this answer, that where the carcass is, thither will the Eagles flee, that is, where Christ is, all the Elect shall be gathered, as Birds of prey flock together after a carcass to feed upon, so that Christ would neither tell the place where, nor the time when, and this should be a check and a control to mens curious pryings about that which the Scripture is silent in.
