AS every work of God tending to the rescuing of deluded Souls out of the snares of the Devil, so even this Glorious work of Gods grace hath met with many discouragements by various kinds of objections cast abroad by divers sorts of people, and even by some that came from New-England it self, who having lived remote from the work done, and either not affecting the instruments therein employed, or not going to the places of their Exercise, that they might see and hear the gracious operations of the Spirit of God amongst them, ⟨image 9⟩may easily misreport the proceedings of Gods goodness therein. Yet nevertheless God having called us to be exercised in a work of this Nature, wherein his Glory and the Salvation of so many of the lost sons of Adam are concerned; we have taken up a Resolution by his gracious Assistance to improve the power and trust by Authority of Parliament committed to us to the utmost, least it be laid to our Account amongst others the obstructors of it in the great day of the Lord.
