God's Goodness and Severity in Dealing With Sinful Churches and Nations 1-4

John Owen: This is the only way for the saving of this nation from impending judgments and wasting desolations, -- that this way will be effectual to that end when all others shall fail, -- is asserted and proved in this discourse, from the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ himself, to confront the wisdom of politicians, who are otherwise minded, with a plain word of truth and power....if they persist in their negligence, if they give not a public evidence, at this season, of their zeal for repentance and reformation of life among all sorts of persons, -- going before them in their example and endeavors to the promotion of them, -- I don't understand how they will give an account of their trust and duty to God or men.
