Faithfulness of God

In 1662 Richard Baxter was thrown out of his pulpit and church under the Act of Uniformity. This was the "Great Ejectment" when thousands of Puritans were tossed out of their pulpits because they would not agree to the demands of the Church of England. Baxter's response was simple: "Never did God break His promise to me. Never did He fail me or forsake me. The sun may cease to shine on man, and the earth to bear us, but God will never cease to be faithful to His promise." Baxter's confidence was never shaken in the midst of such darkness.
