IT is too usual with men, the wiser they are, the more to be turbule••t and dis∣quieters of the State;* 1.1 and the more power they have, the more to tyrannize and lord it over their fellow Subjects; For such men do seldom suffer themselves to be guided or governed by the Counsels and dictates of others, and run head-long of themselves, swayed by a kind of impulsive providence, and so care not but to please
their own fancy, no matter whom they displease besides; But it is not so with Christ, he that is Wisdome it self, that is wonderful for Counsel, mighty for Power; bends both his wisdom, and his power, and his counsel to work peace, that peace which is the portion of his people, the inheritance of his Church, which none can partake of but those that are true members thereof.
B. Lake Serm. on Exod. ch. 9.
