God brings about his holy and wise purpose or decree, concerning many particular events, by using and improving the wicked dispositions of mankind in order thereto; and often improves the present corruptions of sinners, as the means to chastise and punish them for former wickedness; : briefly illustrated in a sermon, preached at Suffield, December 27, 1773, the next Sabbath after the report arrived, that the people at Boston had destroyed a large quantity of tea, belonging to the East-India Company, rather than to submit to Parliament-acts, which they looked upon unconstitutional, tyrannical, and tending to enslave America. : Published with some enlargements. / By Israel Holly, Preacher of the Gospel in Suffield. ; [One line of Scripture text].
