(3.) Consider his Wisdom. His Skill and Policy far exceeds the Craft and Subtlety of all the Machiavellian Politicians in the World. He knows how to assault and harm his Enemies, and to carry on, and bring off, to preserve and defend his People, and faithful Soldiers. Let Men and Devils be never so skilful and politic, Christ knows how to outwit them, and over-reach them all. He knows where all their Mines are digged, where all their Forces, Flankers, and Ambuscadoes do lie; He knows their Plot, and how laid this day against his Interest, Gospel, and Covenant-People, in this and other Nations; He knows how to confound them, and catch them in their own Craftiness, and to bring them to Shame. He is wonderful in Counsel, and mighty in Working. He hath an Omniscient Eye, as well as an Omnipotent Hand. He makes his Countermines, and blows them up, or burieth them in the Pit they have digged. He outshoots the Devil and the Wicked in their own Bow. He will bring down the Beast, and Whore, and all their Abettors, and make them ashamed of their Hope. Mark the Issue of this present Dispensation. See Captain in the First Volume, and God a Man of War.
