I see not the time of the fulfilling the promise; yet 'Though the vision tarry, wait for it, because it will surely come and not tarry.' (Hab. 2:3) We are to remember, God can trail his promise, in our seeming, through hell, and the devil's black hands, (as he led Christ through death, the curse, and hell,) and yet fulfill it. When Christ is under a stone, and buried, the gospel seems to be buried.
