A Golden Nugget For You

Here is another golden nugget from a book written back in 1852 relating a similar truth about the character of God that we are trying to promote at Vindicating God Ministries:

"God is repeatedly said to have destroyed Israel; but we also read, '0, Israel! thou hast destroyed thyself.' Here God was not the destroyer; for He is expressly termed Israel's help. Every day's experience teaches us that afflictions come not singly, but in battalions. And why? But that, so soon as the shield of Truth is removed, the blows of the Adversary, 'who loveth to oppress,' fall thick and fast. Nor is it until God again interposes, 'by lifting up a standard against the Enemy,' that trials cease. In Job's case, God's protecting hand was withdrawn, and immediately stroke followed stroke with a malice."
Fraser-Tytler, Charles Edward New View of the Apocalypse: or, The Plagues of Egypt and of Europe Identical (Edinburgh: Johnstone and Hunter, 1852), p. 68
