In reformation God may go on to desolation. That the sins of a people may come to that pass, and God's wrath may be kindled to that height, that notwithstanding their reformation, God will go on to enact a desolation. For its truth -that God may go on to desolation-, were there no other instance to be found in any other biblical narrative, but this in my text, it would be sufficient to prove that such a thing may be. That which has already been may be so again. Josiah,-51- we see, worked such a Reformation, that the whole Kingdom did, all his days, follow the Lord- and notwithstanding all this, God did not turn from his fierce wrath- but went on to destroy them.
