in The Primitive Baptist vol. 4 no.10 (1839)
SO WE OUGHT NOT, my brethren, to think hard of persecution
or rail out against those who persecute us or speak evil of
us; but let us try to pray for them, and pray the Lord to sanctify
it to their and our good and his glory. And let us take courage
of such things, seeing that such things have been for the good of
Zion. So let us glory in tribulation and persecution, believing
that all things work together for good to them that love God
and are the called according to his purpose. |
