IN the Discourse, which I lately delivered from this passage of Scripture, I considered an individual inhabitant, or the whole people, if IdumiBea, as calling to the prophet Isaiah, to inquire of him, as a iivineiy appointed watchman, concerning the future destiny of that lation. I then explained the prophet's answer, as containing a gene- al indication of that destiny ; and general directions, also, concerning he manner of avoiding the evils, which it involved. As a minister of the Gospel, and... a watcliman for this church and longregation, I then attempted to give my audience some account of he most remarkable and interesting features of the present times. )urselves I considered as placed, in prophecy, under those symbolical »redictioiis in the Apocalypse, which are denominated the seven vials ; jarticularly under the concluding operations of the sixth, or the com- nencing operations of the seventh. This opinion I endeavoured to il- ustrate by an explanation of the prophecies, given to us in the account »f the last vials; and by a recital of those events in the history »f modern times, in which I considered them as being in an impor- aut degree, fulfilled.
