THE Wall Glory OF JERUSALEM IN A SERMON Preached in St. PAULS-Church LONDON Before the Right Honorable The Lord Mayor Lord General Aldermen Common Council and Companies of the Honorable City of London February 28. 1659. Being a Day of Solemn Thanksgiving unto God for restoring the Parliament and Common Council and for preserving the City By Edward Reynolds D. D. London Printed by Tho Newcomb for George Thomason at the Rose and Crown in St. Pauls Church-yard 1660. To the Right Honorable THOMAS ALEYN Lord Mayor of the City of LONDON The Court of Aldermen and COMMON COUNCIL Right Honorable AMongst all the exceeding great and precious Promises which the Lord hath made unto his People these are of a very radiant Lustre and special Magnitude That he would appoint a place for them and plant them that they should dwell in a place of their own and move no more neither should the Children of Wickedness afflict them any more as before time That he would build them and not pull them down and plant them and not pluck them up and give them an Heart to know him and to return unto him with their whole Heart Whereby we understand that Stability and Sanctity Healing and Holiness are two most Eminent and Signal Mercies of God unto a People who have been long exercised with Breach upon Breach and emptied from Vessel into Vessel How sad the Condition of these discomposed and dilacerated Nations hath been how doleful the Earthquakes and Concussions both in Church and State how daring the Insolencies and Attempts of men of unstable minds destitute of solid and steady Principles acted by the various and quotidian Conduct of changeable and domestical Interests have been against our Jachin and our Boaz Authority in our Parliaments and Ministry in our Churches hath been so well known both at home and abroad as to render these Nations a Shame to themselves and a Ludibrium to the World What the great Works are which the Lord by the wonderful Series and Vicissitudes of Providence is doing in the midst of us the Hearts of his Servants hanging in suspence between Hope and Fear do tremulously attend upon and labor to understand When we consider the maturity of our mighty Sins we have great reason to fear his Wrath and when we observe the progress of his Wonderful works we have some comfortable Encouragement to hope for the renewall of his Mercy And that so much the rather because he hath stirred up your hearts in this great City to return unto him the glory due unto his name for his goodness to these Nations in restoring the Parliament and unto your selves in restoring your Council and healing the Wound inflicted on the Honor of this Renowned City That the Lord will be graciously pleased to crown and consummate the Mercies which he hath begun in guideing the hearts of the people to chuse for this next Parliament men of Eminency for Piety and Prudence who may come with healing Spirits and make it their business to repair our Breaches and be the Restorers of Paths to dwell in who may lay to heart the Interest of Christ and his Church and promote purity of Doctrine and Worship due Administration of Holy Ordinances and whatever may conduce to the Power of Godliness and the Comfort of all that love the Lord Jesus in sincerity That he will be pleased to set his Eye and his Heart upon this City for good and to dwell in it night and day to be a Wall of Fire about it and the Glory in the midst of it to appoint Salvation for Walls and Bulwarks unto it is and shall be the hearty Prayer of Your most humble and Faithful Servant in the Lord EDWARD REYNOLDS March 14. 1659. THE WALL and GLORY OF JERUSALEM In a SERMON Preached in Pauls Church London Zach. 2. 5. For I saith the Lord will be unto her a Wall of Fire round about and will be the Glory in the midst of her TWo gracious Visions the Lord giveth our Prophet in the former Chapter One of a man riding amongst the Mirtile-trees in the bottom Christ in his despised Church at Babylon The other of Four Carpenters sent to fray and cast out the Horns which had scattered the Church by both giving an assurance that he would disappoint the Enemies of his afflicted people We have here in this Chapter another Vision of a man with a measuring Line in his hand to shew that the Lord was now in a readiness to build and restore the City Temple the former we find accordingly done by the care of Nehemiah cap. 3 cap. 6. 15. the latter by Joshua and Zerubbabel Ezra 6 14 15. Now whereas it is here said ver. 4. That Jerusalem should be inhabited as Towns without Walls which may seem first to cross the History Neh. 6. 15. where we find that the Wall was finished 2. To discourage the people who having such potent and malicious Adversaries round about as they had should by that means be exposed to all the assaults and impressions which they should make upon them The meaning is that though the city within the Walls were very spacious yet the people should return in so great abundance as Josephus reports they did that multitudes should be constrained to lie without the Walls unto whom the Lord promiseth to be himself a Wall and Defence They were now called to build the city and Temple two great discouragements they Scorn Nehem. 4. 8. 1. 3. 7 8 9. Nehem. 6. 1. 10. Ezra 4. 4 5. The Lord here by a gracious promise fortifieth them against the fear of both against the fear of Danger by promising to be their Protection and against the fear of Scorn by promising to be their Glory When they are without Walls I will be their Wall when they are without Gates I will be their Gate my Salvation shall be a Bulwark unto them they shall call their Walls Salvation and their Gates praise Isai. 26 1. 60. 18. The Words set forth the Lord opposing all the Enemies removing all the fears of his people by a double promise of Protection against all powerfull oppositions of Honor against all reproachfull Insultations In both is considerable First The Author and Substance of it I saith the Lord 2. The Subject of it Jerusalem I will be unto her 3. The Description of it 1. Of the Protection by the Metaphors of a Wall and of Fire and the place of that in Circuitu round about 2. of the Honor and the place of that I will be for Glory or the Glory in the midst of her A weak people met together about an hated and invidious Enterprize opposed by strong subtle vigilant active malicious Adversaries had need have a help to defend them I saith the Lord will be an Help a Wall unto them But potent Enemies can batter Walls and scale them Ezek. 21. 22. Prov. 21. 22. nay saith the Lord I will prevent that fear I
awaken the Spirits of all wise godly and sober persons to close in some healing and uniting Counsels not to foment animosities nor cherish jealousies one against another but studying every man his own failings to be the more remiss in censuring and the more inclinable unto closing with their Christian Brethren why should we shut any out of our love here whom we dare not exclude from the Common Salvation hereafter And indeed when the Lord is pleased to send a Spirit of Unity and Agreement amongst a people to make them tender of each others safety and to look on the welfare of the parts as the common Interest of the whole they are hereby a Wall unto one another as Nabals Servants said of David and his men 1 Sam. 25. 16. Every thing is best preserved when most united It is easie to break the sticks of a Fagot when the bond is loosed and they sever'd each from other but while they are bound together they mutually preserve each other Love is a Bond Col. 3. 14. The Integrity of the Body is preserved by the Love of the Members unto one another therefore Nature hath taught weak Cattle to keep together in Flocks and Fishes in sholes and Birds in flights whereas Beasts of Prey live commonly alone as Lyons Whales Eagles Kites A Kingdom divided within it self cannot stand Therefore as Christ is not divided 1 Cor. 1. 13. would not have his bones broken nor his garment parted so neither should his Church She is never so terrible as when she is an Army with Banners united compacted into one Body 3. A Wall of Protection and Defence As the Lord promiseth to encamp about his House and to defend them Zach. 9 8. 15. He is a Rock a Tower a Shield a Chamber a Sanctuary and here a Wall to preserve and protect his people Great hath ever been the care of States to keep the Walls and Gates of Cities inviolable in the Roman Law they are called Res Sanctae divini Juris sacred things and in no case to be injured and it was a capital crime to climb over them We read in Diod Sic. what care Themistocles took to build a Wall about Athens Bec. Walls are a great defence and protection to the Cities to which they belong The Lord doth thus as a Wall protect his Church 1. In a way of Promise I saith the Lord his saying it is doing it His Word is Operative Efficacious Gods Promises are the Walls about his Church Every thing is preserved by the same word whereby it is created He upholdeth all things by the word of his power Heb. 1. 3. His Servants count themselves safe under his promise they trust in his Word Psal. 119. 81. 2. In a way of Power making bare his Arm in their Cause then when all second Helps fail and are at a stand such a defence he was to Israel at the Red Sea when Death was before and behind and on every side of them so that they were able to do nothing but only to stand still and see the Salvation of God 3. In a way of Providence 1. By Creatures with whom he maketh a Covenant in behalf of his people that they shall not but in all his holy Mountain Of this League we read Job 5 23. Hos. 2 18. Ezek. 34. 25. 2. By Enemies making Moab a Covert from his Out-casts Isai. 16 4. as dead Thorns are a fence about a Garden He doth sometimes not only restraine the wrath of Evil men as he did Labans and Esaus from hurting Jacob but doth make them helpful and beneficial unto them as the dissention between the Pharisees and Saduces was to Paul Act. 23. 6 7. As the Egyptians lent their Jewels unto Israel to hasten them away Exod. 12 35 36. 3. By Casualties ordering contingent Events and various incoherent Emergencies to the protection of his people as the noise in the Mulberry Trees 2 Sam. 5 24. The shining of the Sun on the Waters 2 Reg. 3. 22. The suddain incursion of the Philistines 1 Sam. 23 27 28 The Chaine of fortuitous Events which we may observe in the History of Joseph and in the book of Esther 4. In a way of Grace the Lord planting such beauties and rayes of spiritual Majesty upon his Servants as causeth their very Adversaries to reverence them and fear to annoy them as Herod did John and Felix Paul for wisdom maketh a mans face to shine Eccles. 8 1. There are Flowers which they call Wall-Flowers and there are Graces which I may call Wall-Graces which have a special protecting vertue in them Innocency whereby we put to silence the frowardness of foolish men 1. Pet 2 15. Wisdom which God hath given for a Defence Eccles. 7. 12. by this Abigal diverted the ruine intended against Nabal and his Family Meekness and Humiliiy for the lowest things are safest A Tempest breaks an Oake but not the Ears of Corn which yield unto it A Canon Bullet battereth a lofty Tower of Marble which is deaded by a raw mud wall A soft Spirit turneth away Wrath Prov. 15 1. Holy fortitude which is a fence against Terror Pro. 28. 1 Spiritual peace and joy which is a Garison to the Heart Phil. 4. 7. The Joy of the Lord is the strength of his Servants Nehem. 8 10. The invincible power of Faith which is a Shield against Satan and our Victory over the World Ephes. 6. 16. 1. Joh. 5 4. Hope the Anchor of the Soul the Whetstone of Christian courage the more we expect for the future the securer we are for the present against the fear of evil Lastly the Spirit of supplication which flies to the name of the Lord as a strong Tower which wrestles and prevailes with God vincit invincibilem ligat omnipotentem and therefore is a principal part of the Christian panoply Eph. 6. 18. And thus is the Lord a Wall of protection to his Church In a way of promise in a way of power in a way of providence ordering Creatures Enemies Casualties to the defence of his people and in a way of Grace And his protection is like that of a Wall in these two respects 1. He is a near present Ready Defence Evil may be at hand when Help is too for off to come seasonably in But the Wall joyns and is near unto the City Such a Defence the Lord is a present help in trouble Psal. 46. 1. A God near at hand not in a journey or a sleep or out of the way when he should help us Jer. 23. 23. Nigh unto his people in all that they call upon him for Deut. 4 7. Psal. 85 9. 2. an Adequate and proportionable defence A Wall defends a City on every side As the Enemies compass the Church about with Danger Psal. 22 12. 16. Psal. 118 10. 12. So doth the Lord compass it with mercy Psal. 32. 10. But the strongest Walls though of Iron or Brass for such we read of Ezek. 4. 3.
Jer. 15. 20. may by Military Engines be scaled battered or demolished Therefore the Lord to shew that he is an impregnable protection saith that he will be a Wall of Fire which cannot be scaled nor broken down which consumes all Engines that attempt any thing against it as the Flaming Sword kept the way of the Tree of Life The Pillar of Fire secured Israel Fire in the Bush kept any from coming near to cut off the boughs and yet did not it self consume them He is a fire in the Enemies Wall to overturn it Jer. 49. 27. but to Jerusalem he is a Wall of Fire to defend it He once defended the Church with a Wall of water Exod. 14. 22. And still defends it as a Wall of Fire By himself who is a consuming Fire Heb. 12. 29. By his Angels who are a flaming fire Psal. 104. 4. Therefore Solomon carved Cherubims on the Walls of the Temple 2 Chron. 3. 7. to signifie that Angels are the Walls of the Church the Angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him to deliver them Psal. 34. 7. And his protection is like Fire in these four respects 1. It is Terrible and conspicuous which in a wonderful manner doth strike fear into his Enemies as he promised to go before his people as a consuming fire Deut. 9. 3. The Prophet describes the terrible majesty of the Lord by a Throne of Fire Ezek. 1. 26 27. And the glorious coming of Christ by flames of fire 2 Thes. 1. 8 9. We are bid to praise him in the fires Isai. 24. 15. For those conspicuous mercies whereby he hath shewed himself a consuming fire in behalf of his people He answereth his people by terrible things Psal. 65. 5. things which they looked not for Isai. 64. 3. To make his name known unto his adversaries 2. It is an impregnable and invincible defence Other Walls though high though broad by battering Rams have been demolished and by Mounts scaled The Walls of Babylon were two hundred foot high and fifty foot broad as Diodorus Siculus Pliny and Herodotus report yet even these were broken down Jere. 51. 58. but no man dare climb no Engines can be applied against a Wall of Fire it will devour the batteries that are made against it 3. It is a constant and perpetual defence for this is not a wasting but a sixed fire like that in the Bush which did not consume it but dwelt in it Deut. 33. 16. He is a Sun and a shield his protection is an enduring thing as the fire of the Sun Psal. 84. 11. 89. 36. the defence which is over his Glory upon the Assemblies of Sion viz. The Pillar of the Cloud and of fire is never taken away Isai. 4. 5. Exod. 13. 22. 4. It is an Active an Offensive an Efficacious defence Other Walls are defensive only to prohibit and hinder Assaults but a Wall of Fire doth fight for those whom it doth defend it is not only a Wall but a Magazine not only a fence but a Weapon not only a muniment but an Army As Israels wall of water did drown Pharoah so the three Childrens Wall of Fire did devour those that threw them into it The protection of God about his Church is a most operative and a most efficacious protection We have taken a view of the Wall Let us consider the City thus walled the Subject of this Defence I will be unto Her unto Jerusalem the City of the great God where his dwelling is there is his defence as men use to mound the places of their Habitation The more a people have of Gods presence the more they have of his protection His Covering is upon his Glory Isai. 4. 5. His Angels guard us in viis non in praecipitiis Psal. 91. 11. When we go to appear before the Lord the Enemie shall not desire our Land Exod. 34. 24. but if we have our back upon Jerusalem we are out of his protection as he that went from Jerusalem to Jerico Luke 10. 30. Consider in the Church property and preciousness they are Gods own Judea was called Immanuels land Zion his rest Psal. 132 14. They are in special manner his people Isai. 63 19. 64 9. Ezek. 16 8. And they are his precious and peculiar Treasure his Jewels Mal. 3 17. And property in precious things will certainly procure protection Consider in the Lord his Love and his Promise his Grace and his Fidelity His Eyes and his Heart are perpetually upon his Church 1 Reg. 9 3. She is graven on the Palmes of his hands Isai. 49 16. They that touch her touch the apple of his Eye Zach. 2. 8. He will never suffer his beloved to be unprotected especially having engaged his promise that the gates of hell shall not prevaile against it Mat. 16 18. And that they may not prevail against it the Protection must be complete a Wall must be round about it the Defence must be answerable to the Assault The Church in the Wilderness marched in a four square body with the Tabernacle of the Congregation in the midst of them and their Standards one very side as we find Num. 2. The Standards were as a Wall of Fire Jehovah Nissi and the Tabernacle the Glory in the midst of them The Enemies of the Church are on every side Impius in Circuitu Psal. 12 8. Satan in Circuitu Job 1 7. 1 Pet. 5 8. To devour the Church and therefore here ignis in circuitu Deus in circuitu Psal. 125 2. To defend the Church Angels in circuitu Zach. 1 11. The Eyes of the Lord run to and fro in every place to behold the Evil and the Good 2 Chron. 16 9. Prov. 15 3. When there are four Horns on the four sides of the Church to scatter it there are four Carpenters in a like proportion on every side to fray them away and to rescue it Zach. 1 18-21 Our protection is ever suitable to our danger the stronger the assault the greater the assistance With every temptation the Lord opens an escape that we may be able to bear it 1 Cor. 10 13. We see all is well about the Church a Wall of Fire round about it If all be well within it too it must needs be an happy body and so certainly it is for he who is murus in circuitu is likewise Gloria in medio I will be the Glory in the midst of it Glory passively in nothing is God glorified so much as in building restoring protecting his Church glorified in all his Creatures but admired in his Saints 2 Thes. 1. 10. No where is his name so great as in Israel Psal. 76 1. When he buildeth up Sion then it is that he appears in his Glory Psal. 102 16. Glory Actively by making his Church Honorable and Glorious as he saith he will do Isai. 11 10. 43 4. 60 13. Every Nation hath some one or other
to suffer Honorably as well as to do so facere pati fortia Romanum est The Lillie is as beautiful in the midst of Thorns as in a bed of Spices We have seen how the Lord is a Defence and protection to his people a Wall of separation from the World of conjunction within themselves of protection from danger by his Promise by his power by his Providence by his Grace a present Defence a proportionable Defence A Wall of Fire by a Terrible and conspicuous an impregnable and invincible a constant and perpetual an active and efficacious Defence A Wall of Fire to Jerusalem his most proper and most precious resting place unto which he is by choicest Love and Fidelity engaged A Wall round about to prevent Enemies which are round about The protection suitable to the danger The Glory in the midst of it by his gracious presence by his Holy Ordinances by the happy State of the Church in the glorious Relations of Justification and Adoption in the glorious Habits of Holiness Peace and Blessedness In glorious Priviledges of Christian Liberty communion of Saints Boldness in prayer Victory over Temptations and Afflictions with many other the like I shall add but a short word of Application and suddenly have done 1. We Learn hence what a folly as well as wickedness it is for Samaritans to oppose the building of Jerusalem or the Temple for any Enemies to set themselves against the Church of God as great a madness as for Briars to contend with Flames for stubble to wage War with fire for a Sheafe as the Prophet makes the instance Zach. 12 6. to enter into battail with a flaming Torch Isai. 27 4 5. The Whale may swallow Jonah but it shall not digest him The Grave may devour Christ but he will kill Death in its own dominion as Benaiah did the Lyon in his own Pit A man may drink down a Cup of Poyson but it will suddenly be revenged on him It is madness to provoke the Lord being weaker then he 1 Cor. 10. 12. Wo unto him that striveth with his Maker Isai. 45. 9. 2. We need not make use of carnal Wisdom and sinful means for protection against Danger for God can be alone a Wall of Fire unto his people Use not oppression or violence to help your selves for Power and Mercy belong unto God Psal. 62. 10. 12. David was advised by those about him once and again to kill Saul when he was in his power and so to secure himself but he answered God forbid that I should touch the Lords annointed he trusted in God and would not use Carnal Wisdom for his own safety 1 Sam. 24. 47. 26. 8. 11. This Wall of Fire can better protect us then all the broad or high Walls of Jerico or Babylon It is good keeping in Jerusalem in Gods presence in his way so long we are within a Wall of Fire 3. This is great Comfort unto Holy men That the very Terrors of God are their protection The Terrors of God at Sinai and in the Wilderness were for the Salvation of Gods people Habak. 3 13. As the mercy of God will not save those that despise it so the fury of God will be a defence unto those that tremble at it No attribute of God but faith can suck comfort from it 4. Envie not the Glory of the World nor the Pomps and Pleasures thereof to those whose Portion is in this Life but rest abundantly satisfied with the Glory of Gods presence shining in the face of Christ and those unmatchable Riches wherewith he endoweth the Church in comparison whereof all the glories of the World are but dross and dung If God would have the Honor of his Church to stand in outward things The Silver is his and the Gold is his Hag. 2 8. The Cattel on a Thousand Mountains his Psal. 50 10. But as Abraham gave portions to his other Children but the Inheritance to Isaac even all that he had Gen. 25 5. As Princes at their Coronation give Wine and Monie to the Multitude but Honors to their Favorites So the Lord giveth Earthly things many times more liberally to the men of the World but bestoweth himself for a Portion and exceeding great reward unto his own people and they esteem him precious 1 Pet. 2 7. And his Promises precious 2 Pet. 1 4. and his Redemption precious Psal. 49 8. And the very Afflictions which they suffer for his sake precious 1 Pet. 1 7. 5. Above all things hold fast God and his presence A City is never without Walls or Gates without glory and splendor till they are without God Your glory departs when his Ordinauces are removed You may confidently promife your self his protection while you make his Habitation in the midst of you your greatest Glory And therefore as he hath a long time been a Wall of Fire about you in all the confusions of a bloody War no alarm hath startled or stormed you though there were angry men who shooke their Arm against London as the Assyrian against Jerusalem Isai. 10 32. That said it would never be well with England till London were in a flame yet you have had no flame about you but a Wall of Fire and Chariots of Fire as the Prophet had 2 Reg. 6 17. As therefore the Lord hath protected you and been the Glory in the midst of London for I am perswaded it is a sober Truth that no City in the Christian World hath had a more glorious presence of God by the Light of his Word and the purity of his Worship and Ordinances then London hath had So make it your business in an answerable proportion to bring Glory to God by zeal for the Truth by Love to the Ordinances by comforting the Ministers and encourageing them in the work of the Lord by executeing Justice and Judgment reforming all abuses setting up the Name of God in your Families preserving those that belong unto you from the Contagion of dangerous and dividing Doctrines God will be with you while you are with him he never breaks with a people first do you give Glory to him and he will be Glory to you Lastly If God be thus your Glory let your glorying be in him alone Glory not in your Strength or Wisdom or Wealth or Splendor in your Ships or Trade or in the Harvest of the River glory only in your Wall of Fire and in this that the Lord hath been hitherto so nigh unto you And truly you have great Reason to bless the Lord and to make your boast of him all the day long as for Remoter mercies which you must not forget though I cannot now recount them so for those signal Mercies for the celebration whereof you are met together at this time What a deluge of Confusion these poor Nations were running into how deep the discontents of the people how ready the Tinder of unsatisfied Spirits in all parts of the Nation to take Fire
and break out into a Flame in what danger the Function of a Learned and Orthodox Ministry and the maintenance thereof was to be devoured How desperately the Ordiances were despised the Truths of Religion rejected what dangerous divulsions daily more and more made from the Unity of the Church of God amongst us How near we were brought unto the brow of the precipice it is now our Comfort that we can with thankfulness recount as surviving so great dangers as well as with sorrow bewaile our exposedness unto them How should our Hearts be enlarged and our Mouths filled and our Lives acted with the Praises of the Lord what Memorials and Monuments and Eben-Ezers should we every where erect of those wonders and terrible things which we looked not for which the Lord hath wrought for us in a kind of Pararel and proportion to those which he wrought for Israel at the Red Sea That then when force after force and breach after breach had been made upon the solemn Conventions of the Nations and the Ancient Honor of the English Parliaments had been ravished and prostitated to the Will and Passions of their own Servants when the Licentiousness of the times made way for men of corrupt Principles and daring Confidence tantùm non to spit in the Face of Magistracy and Ministry and all sobriety of Judgment amongst us then for the Lord to stir up the Spirits of all the people of the Land as one man solemnly to own their Native Liberties and with united Affections to implore the Vindication of them then for the Lord to awaken an Honorable Instrument to assert the Priviledges and Dignities of conculcated Parliaments and to restore the many grave and Eminent Members there of to their long interrupted right and to the administration of their Trust again To stand by this Famous City who had chearfully with their Treasures their Swords their Lives their Counsels aided and asserted the publick Engagements That then when your Hearts were ready to sink at the demolishing of your City Gates immediately they should be revived with the opening of your Parliament gates that those worthy Patriots Lovers of Truth and Righteousness might enter in as we ought with great Love and Honor to respect the Instruments so ought we to ascribe the whole glory unto God alone who only doth wondrous things at whose presence the Mountains have flowed down and become a plain Who if we follow on to know the Lord if we provoke him not by murmuring against Instruments or by deifying of them but second their Endeavors with our prayers and Gods Mercies with our Praises will perfect what he hath begun And as he hath laid the Foundation will so consummate the whole structure of our Settlement that we shall at last bring forth the Head-Stone thereof with Shouting and Acclamations Crying Grace Grace unto it FINIS 2 Sam. 7. 10.
