because their circumstances will not permit them so to do, (their wings are clipt) so that they are under a necessity of suffering to avoid sinning (at leastwise against their own consciences) I say when it is so with men (as the case is very ordinary) that the providence of God hath brought them under a necessity of suffering (as they think for righteousness sake) would they then imitate Christ who was as a sheep dumb before the shearers, he opened not his mouth, his voice was not heard in the streets, &c. Would they instead of rendring evil for evil, love their enemies, bless them that curse them, pray for them that use them despightfully (as they interpret it) that were the likeliest way to make friends of them, whom they take for their foes, |
