Mayhew's Sermon elaborates on the Book of Amos: "Shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?" Mayhew explains that, since God is in charge, "he must, in some sense, either mediately or immediately, be the author of whatever events come to pass... And this is one of the ways, in which God has often threatned to chastize a wicked and rebellious people."
