Book Description
Excerpt from The Pious Christian's Faith and Hope Such is now the condition of the Earth. Yet int-he Earth, among the pious Christians, as God has declared, there is a tenth which shall be saved. It is as when an oak or a teel tree is dead. And withered, and all its leaves are fallen, yet there is some green, some life in it. So there is a holy seed in the earth, the substance thereof, and while the greater number of the Earth will remain firm in their strong delu sions and become more obstinate than ever in their idolatry and deceit, these shall return to the Lord their God from whom they have departed. Thus it is with the Earth the pious Christians, professors of the heavenly truth, whom God had highly favoured and watered with His word, who have departed from the truth, turning it upside down, teaching the very reverse of the truth and calling it the truth, yet in it there is a tenth who shall return to God, and when it re turns shall be saved. But with the Sea, with those who have never professed to worship God only, and to trust in his power and grace only - with the Sea, who have not known nor professed in falsehood and deceit the doctrine of God, not saying they trusted in God only while their trust was in man only - with these it will fare better than with the Earth. God will have great mercy upon a great num ber of them, more by far than a tenth of them shall he turned unto God and be filled with everlasting joy and glad ness, for an abundance of the sea. Shall be conuerted unto God, as God hath spoken by His prophets who spake of this time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
