Excerpt from Tokens of the Divine Displeasure: In the Late Conflagrations in New-York,& Other Judgements
It soon appeared that this judgment of the irreligion of the house was not uncharitable; for the law of the revised statutes, providing for the pay of chaplains was speedily rescinded, only nine members voting in the negative. Since that time, the voice of prayer has not been heard, in the new-york halls of legislation, and by a solemn legislative act, all reliance on the God of Israel, for his spirit, aid and blessing in conducting its civil affairs, has been cast off, and infidelity has obtained a for mal triumph. Thus is exhibited the painful spectacle, of a people greatly prospered in the bounty of Heaven - a people who have the oracles of the living God in nearly every family -a people among whom there are thousands of christian churches such a people proclaiming by their representatives, in the face of the nations, that they do not and will not look to the God of Heaven for his favour or protection as a com monwealth. What christian, nay, what pagan nation has ever done a deed like this Pass overto the isles ofchittim and see; and send to Kedar, and consider diligently and see if there be such a thing Hath a nation changed their gods, which yet are no gods? But my people have changed their glory, for that which doth not profit. Be astonished O ye heavens at this, and be ye horribly afraid, be ye very desolate saith the Lord. For my people have committed two great evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and have hew ed them out cisterns, broken cisterns that can hold no water. Jer. Rt, 10, 13.
