They haue killed thy Prophets and digged downe thine Alters.

From these two members ioyntly considered,* 1.1 aris∣eth this instruction. That it is the plot and practise of Apostataes and Idolaters in their hatred & rage against

God, to labour, to blot all remembrance of God, and not to suffer the Ambassadors and Messengers of God to re∣maine aliue. Psal. 79.1 & 2. Psal. 8.13. Apoc. 12.2. & 13.16. & 17. Apoc. 18.24.

Reas. The reason in regard of the holy monuments of Gods seruice is, because they are profaine and wicked and regard them not; and as for the good ministers of God, they like the King of Aram against Ahab (though indeed a most wicked King▪) fight against none (in comparison) but against them, for they seeme stumbling blockes and hubbes in their way who by their ministerie and zealous example vexe them. Apoc. 11. ver. 10.

1. Vse. Let vs be thankefull vnto God for the long con∣tinued vse and ministery of his blessed Gospell, and that neither Prelates nor Pastors nor Preachers are not giuen into the hands of our blood-thristy & woluish aduersaries

2. Vse. Secondly let the ministers prepare and resolue them-selues not onely to suffer rebuke and losse for Gods cause, but also to die for it, (if they be therevnto called) for God will highly reward them, and they shall not bee loosers but gainers by it, and not damnified, but euerlas∣tingly glorified.

3. Vse. Seeing the good pastors and ministers of Gods word are so much maligned & assaulted by Satan and his instruments, let all the people of God pray for their con∣stancy, patience, successe of their ministery, for their deli∣uery and preseruation; and then (no doubt) the ministers shall speede and prosper the better, and the comfort of their perseruation shall redound to the people.
