PROTESTATION Defended.

THe Prophets words were well considered before they were set down in the Protestation, and they are very applicable to the Party of which the Protesters speak. It is known to the World what some of the Protesters have done for maintenance of the Go∣vernment of this Kirk; I may say of them all without any boast, that they have done more for it, then any who question the reality of their Professions. There is no doubt but it is the Devils design to ruine Generall Assemblies, and every Ordinance of Christ if he could, but the way by which Satan hath most advanced that design hath been through their own corruption, and when they were faith∣full, opposition hath little prevailed.
