“There is one political maxim which comforts me: “The Lord reigns.’ (Psalm 97:1)
His hand guides the storm.
And He knows them that are His, how to protect, support, and deliver them.
He will take care of His own cause.
Yes, He will extend His kingdom, even by these formidable methods.
Men have one thing in view.
He has another, and His counsel shall stand. (Psalm 2:1-6)”
–John Newton, The Works of John Newton, Volume 2 (Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1988), 2: 87.
