The causes hereof we may reduce to three heads: First. The holy Lord hath a holy hand in this, and hath noble ends and designs before him in this matter; as, The Lord may think good to order matters thus, that he may magnify his power and grace, in rescuing such as were returned to the very brink of hell, and seemed to many to be lost and irrecoverably gone.
