Hitherto hath the apostle, prepared the auditors to hear with a quiet mind, the judgements of God and fatal destinies of the church, and patiently to bear all adversity, and that we should worship him in all things, and give glory to his name: consequently he expoundeth in a most goodly order the judgements of God, and destinies of the Church, showing how the son of God governeth the ordinances of God and his eternal providence. And this is as it were a Prognostication for all times and Ages unto the worlds end.1 For we shall not think that here are rehearsed only the acts of one age or two, but of all. And first all things are generally described by parts, afterward particularly, when we come to the opening of the seventh seal. The some is, the lord sendeth forth the preaching of the trueth into the world, which when men refuse and despise, they are destroyed with ⟨p. 182⟩wars, and other calamities innumerable.
