the Athenians kept the first Day from Evening to Evening as the Jews kept their Sabbath the Chaldeans begin the time at Sun-rising the Aegyptians at Noon but most People in these Western parts of the World keep the first Day from Midnight to Midnight which most agreeth with the time of Christ's Resurrection who lying in the Grave the whole Seventh-day Sabbath rose most likely so soon as the seventh Day ended because then the first Day began with the Sun-rising for it riseth to us after twelve a clock So Christ the Sun of Righteousness is said to be risen very early in the Morning while it was yet dark John 20.1 So then the Seventh-day Sabbath was past Mat. 16.1 at the rising of the Sun Acts 2. For it may be said the Sun is risen after twelve a clock as we call it Morning at one a clock about which time our Gospel-Sabbath takes its beginning and endeth about the same time as Paul upon an extraordinary occasion continued his Preaching with the Performing of the rest of Christ's Ordinances till twelve a Clock of the First Day of the Week at Night Acts 20.7 And as the time being changed to the first Day with the Holiness thereof even so by the virtue of the fourth Commandment are we also forbidden all manner of Work on the first Day as was forbidden on the seventh Day of old As saith the Prophet If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath from doing thy pleasure on my holy day and call the Sabbath a Delight the holy of the Lord honourable not doing thy one pleasures nor speaking thy own words Isa 58.13 Then shalt thou delight thy self in the Lord ver 14. But it is much to be feared that Gospel Professors are not acquainted with this Scripture when on the first Day of the Week they can work in their Trade apart some all day some carry home Work sell Wares write Letters of worldly Business ride Journies make Bargains and cast up their Books of Accompts take Voyage to Sea Let all such know that because Sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily therefore the heart of the Sons of Men is fully set in them to do evil Eccles 8 11. God will punish the Breakers of this Time for Gospel-Worship as he did the Breakers of the Seventh-day Sabbath under the Law Moreover If the Lord made it a special Reason that Israel of old should keep the Seventh day Sabbath upon their Deliverance out of Aegypt on which Day it may be supposed they came out Deut. 5.15 Sure our Spiritual Deliverance from the Spiritual Bondage of Sin and Satan of which Bondage Aegypt was a Figure is therefore a more weightier reason why we should keep the Day of our Deliverance even the first Day of the Week the Day wherein the Redemption of all the Elect was accomplished by Christ's Resurrection from the dead And again if Israel were enjoyned to keep the Seventh-day upon their Deliverance how much more are all Christians bound upon the same Ground and Reasons to keep the Day of our Deliverance And again If the bringing of Israel out of Aegypt was such a Work as God for the memorial thereof made both the Day and Month the Beginning and first Month of the Year which was not so before Exod. 12.2 and the Deliverance as afore but a Figure of our Spiritual How much more then is that Day to be accounted of and kept holy above all Days in the Year in which we were delivered from our Spiritual Bondage by the Resurrection of Christ who suffered on that day that Sin was first committed in Paradise and also after he had suffered for Sin lay in the Grave the Seventh day Sabbath the chief time that the Sacrifice for Sin was consumed on the Altar And thus when the holy Scriptures which consist of Prophecies Histories Parables Mysteries Statutes Judgments and the like are rightly as saith the Apostle divided we may not be ashamed as some whom he blamed that desired to be Teachers of the Law understanding neither what they say nor whereof they affirm keeping the Seventh-day Sabbath for the Gospel-Sabbath mingling the Law and Gospel together either in our Justification before God and likewise in practice by keeping the Letter of the Law in the Seventh-day Sabbath as the only Time for Gospel-Worship so making the Lord Jesus in his Church inferior to Moses And lastly Having given this brief observation of the state of the Church of Christ from his Ascension to the end of the World with the Confession of Faith in which the Primitive Churches were established and the heavenly Order they performed all the Ordinances of Christ with the Ministry Maintenance and Time Let the Reader wisely observe that in this last Age of the World we are told that after the last glorious Reformation under the seventh Angel as is described in the Preface Satan will be loosed out of his Restraint or Prison again and because he knows he hath but a short time will gather together his Armies comprehended under the name of Gog and Magog Rev. 20. whose names signify covered or to cover to wit but not with my Spirit saith the Lord Isa 30.1 but with his Angelick Doctrines as if they came from Heaven So will he use his uttermost sleights to deceive as Christ saith if it were possible the very Elect by his false Apostles and Prophets with their vain titles and gilded shews of Church and Ministry So that the Harlot or false Church called a Beast is said to have Horns like the Lamb Christ Rev. 13.11 yea she is said to be arrayed with Purple and Scarlet gilded with Gold precious Stones and Pearls Rev. 17.4 as if she were the Queen and Spouse of Christ Psal 45.9 13. Ezek. 16.10 13. Cant. 7.5 She hath Peace-offerings and Vows Prov. 7.14 as if she were the very Church of God Psal 66.13 Bread and Water to refresh her Children Prov. 9.16 17. and her number great and many Jer. 5.7 yet but a well-favoured Harlot Nah. 3.4 who by her alluring tongue whereby she lieth in wait to deceive Eph. 4.14 Rom 16.18 hath cast down many wounded yea many strong men have been slain by her for her house is the way to Hell going down to the Chambers of Death Prov. 7.26 27. Therefore what special care ought every one to have that tender their souls eternal happiness to examine what estate they are in and whether the Congregation they are members of be the true Church of God seeing in these last days Christ telleth us that many false Christs and false Prophets shall arise and deceive many Now if in Nature we were warned of these dangers and harms to the Body what strong watch would we set at our gates both night and day to prevent it how much more being warned by these Lines of the dangers of these last and perilous days wherein so many unstable souls are beguiled that never try by God's Word what they hear but if it suit with the natural sense it is yeelded to for a Truth when as the natural man cannot judg in matters of Faith seing he perceiveth not the things of the Spirit of God and so upon this false ground is the whole Gospel of Christ perverted and made a secondary Law of works that if men believe as the general part of the Church believes it is true belief and if they go to hear a Sermon and sometimes break Bread it is all the service God requires of them in the Church or Congregation Let us intreat such not thus to deceive themselves or any longer be led away by Deceivers to think if they imitate a part of God's service or without Faith in what they do they are in a good condition Let such know the contrary for Cain as well as Abel offered sacrifice yet were not both accepted Gen. 4. Israel in their Apostacy erected a Temple an Altar and Ministry 1 King 12.28 And did not the two women plead both considently for the living Child 1 King 3.16 and whose could it be but hers that loved it most Even so who is the true Church of Christ but they that love him most and who are those Churches that love Christ most but they that keep all his Commandments as it is written He that hath my Commandments and keepeth them he it is that loveth me Joh. 14.21 But how shall such Churches be said to love Christ that shut out of his Church or Kingdom his true Ministry and also the performance of several of his Ordinances For proof thereof we refer the conscienable Reader that will judg without partiality comparing the practice of the Church in this day and their faith to the primitive practice that we the poor despised Christians falsly called Brownists have here set down as our Belief and Practice desiring the Lord in his mercy to bless these our Labours to this Generation even the elect among them that they seeing their Lords pleasure may flee to him whom they love in his true Church as Doves to their windows Isae 60.8 Now to him that is able to keep us from falling even the only wise God and our Lord Jesus Christ be all Glory Honour and Praise rendred now and for evermore Amen FINIS

of many to wit Luther and Calvin at that time casting of the little Book the Light of Gods written Word revealed by his Spirit to them called all to come and see both by their Preaching and Printing found out not long before the Judgment of the great Whore So not only many of Gods Elect were enlightned and did forsake her but also Kings did begin to hate her as God promised As King Henry the 8th of this Nation who destroyed out of this Land the Lord Abbots and Cardinals And after him that worthy Prince his Son Edward the Sixth sent away a great part of the Swarms of Locusts to wit Jesuits Monks aand Friars of all sorts black white and gray and turned their Monasteries into Hospitals But as the Temple after the Captivity out of old Babylon was forty six years in building by reason of wicked hinderances to wit Tobias Sanballer and his Crew So was the Lords spiritual Building of which the former was a Figure hindred in Queen Maries days until Queeen Elizabeths days of happy memory according to the Lords Promise was put into her heart with her honourable Council who by the authority given her did as with a Besom sweep away abundance of those poysoned Locusts and Scorpions that had by the Doctrine of See the Epistle to Mr. Bacon 's Book entituled the Reliques of Rome or 17 Errors in Queen Elizabeths days sent packing to Rome from whence they had their birth but some are crept in here again Free-will and the like stung and venomed every Conscience that they could bear no wholsom Doctrine Which Locusts that came out of the bottomless Pit we shall not presume to interpret lest their Brethren be angry but rather hope we may without offence to any only give you the Judgment of the learned Ministers in Queen Elizabeth's days who in the margent of the great Bibble in quarto and in folio published by the Queens authority have on Rev. 9.3 expounded the Locusts to be false Teachers Hereticks worldly and subtile Prelates with Monks Friars Cardinals Arch-Bishops Bishops Doctors Batchelors Masters that forsake Christ to maintain false Doctrine Moreover in this Queens days the Lord to help forward his spiritual Building raised many famous Instruments To mention one to an hundred namely Henry Barrow John Greenwood John Penry Henry Ainsworth John Robinson John Turner who by the sence of the little Book which was sweet in their mouths but bitter in their bellies that is a wo to them if they did not publish the same made manifest both by their Preaching and * See H. Barrow 's Discovery his Answer to Giff. Greenwood against read Prayer Jo.

God manifested in the flesh The b Altar figured the Doctrine of his Oblation and Mediation for his Church and the whole measuring the Temple Altar and VVorshippers signifying the Restoring of the Christian Religion from the Apostacie of Antichrist and more particularly the Temple figured Christ truly professed for his Person and Doctrine of true Christianity and the Constitution of his Church therein and the Altar the Doctrine of his Oblation and c Mediation for his Church and the VVorshippers are faithful Christians which worship God in Spirit and in Truth and not according to the appointment of Mahomet nor the appointment of the Pope but according to the appointment of the Lord Jesus the only Lord and Law-giver to his Church and Arch-Bishop of our Souls contrary to the Heresies and Abominations of Antichrist who together with all that obey his Orders in the service of God make up one Body together the Man of Sin a 1 Cor. 9.16 b Rev. 6.9 Heb. 13.10 12. Lev. 4.7 c Rev. 8.3 So that by these and the like Servants of the Lord aforesaid whose Doctrine wrought effectually in the hearts of God's Elect so that there were many famous true Churches planted in this Nation and other Parts for whose sake the Blessing of God promised was on this and other Nations as it is written a I will make them saith the Lord and the Places round about my Hill a Blessing and I will cause the shower to come down in his season and there shall be showers of blessings inwardly and outwardly Love to God walking after him in his b Commands and one to another in neighbourly c Love and Unity which sweet and heavenly Work of God among Christians in this Nation the Aged that remember former days 50 or 60 years ago or more can witness to the same and lament the want thereof now So that when God raiseth up his true Ministers to hold forth his Truth as it is in Jesus it did prepare all degrees to Mercies But on the contrary now these Mercies are despised God in his just judgment sendeth in his Wrath upon lukewarm Professors or Christians strong delusions in the increase of false Teachers by their Errors to prepare all Degrees that are led away by them to Judgment And this was wofully experienced of old in the Church of e Israel as among Christians now After the Lord had delivered them out of Captivity had built both City and Temple and restored his true Worship when Christ came to begin his Ministry among them they were so corrupted in thirty years time that there was scarce Faith f found in Israel let this Age mind that The Temple was made a House of h Merchandise God's Law made void by their Tradition and the rest perverted from the true i meaning by the glosse of the Pharisees and they divided into divers Sects some Pharisees some Sadduces and some Herodians And though these Sects were divided one against another yet all could agree together against Christ as the Psalmist complained k They generally despised all the Counsel of Christ who sought to reclaim them being faithless They who seem'd to be affected with Christ when Christ taught them the Doctrines of Faith because by Nature they could not understand them they then l forsook him VVhich is the general state of Professors now who cannot endure any Doctrine except it sute with their natural capacity And in the end the Jews with the Romans crucified him and killed and persecuted afterwards his Servants for which God's Judgments hastened on them m as Christ foretold So that Josephus faith that Titus

used to signify Angels Psal 8.5 Heb. 2.7 sometimes it signifies Magistrates Psal 82.1 and many the like Even so the word Baptisma or baptizo is rendred by Scholars in Dictionaries to dive over head to wash to water to sprinkle to baptize see Gouldman's Dictionary So that he that shall confine the word haptizo to one sense may by the same reason limit all the former words to one sense and so make a confusion in every ones understanding of the use of holy Scriptures as they do that confine the word Baptizo to Dipping when all Churches according to the Wisdom of God are left free what quantity of water they may use in Baptism For though the Eunuch went into the water which was no part of his Baptism but what water Philip uses on him was his Baptism but how much we know not And so of John's Baptism Now with what presumption do these men which call themselves Bappists limit God's Word and so presume above what is written to say he dipped all the Body And might not others do so by many other words in Scripture confine how many persons in number make a Church or the like when it is evident Philip did not baptise all the Body for the Eunuch put some part of his Body in the water himself so Philip could but wash the rest So that it 's safe when we so understand the Scriptures that they agree in one harmony together * Deut. 5.6 7. † Mat. 2.3 And lastly the Place where all Pastors are bound to administer the visible Seals of God's Covenant Baptism is not now at Rivers or Ponds as did the Apostles and Evangelists whose Offices were extraordinary and not limited to any particular Congregation because they received not their Office ordinarily from the Church but were immedialy called by Christ and so not of Men not of a Man and therefore it is written to Pastors and Teachers chosen by the Church they are Members of to feed the Flock of God over which the Holy Ghost hath made them b Over seers so that Archippus is bid to take heed to his Ministry which he had received in the Lord that he c fulfil it Moreover as all ordinary Civil Offices in a Kingdom or Common Wealth are limited within their Corporated Cities and Charters and have no power to execute any part of their Office out of the Limits set them Even so are the ordinary Offices of Christ's Church as of Pastors Teachers Elders and Deacons chosen by their corporated and particular Bodies and commanded as by Acts. 20.28 Col. 4.17 there to fulfil their Ministerial Office and not as some in the Apostles days who said they were Apostles to go from one Congregation to another when they please and baptize at any place but when the Church of Ephesus who knew that the full Number of the Apostles names was already recorded in the foundation of the d Walls of the heavenly Jerusalem tried them to prove their Call and found them * Liars false Apostles deceitful Workers transforming themselves into the e Apostles of Christ And we may believe that there are many in these days that by like trial will be found false Apostles who Apostle-like baptize out of the stative corporative Body of the Church gathered together and without the knowledge of the Church and so not with Archippus fulfill their Ministry within the Limits of their Charters Again as there are some authorized under Civil Kings as Embassadors who are sent to other Nations to treat with them of Peace or like State-Matters others they employ as Messengers and they are sent upon their Masters Business in any part of their Dominions others are Officers in Towns Cities or Burroughs limited within the Bounds of their Charter Even so the Lord Jesus King of Kings sent his Apostles Ambassadors f to other Nations to treat of Peace by the preaching of his Gospel others were sent as Evangelists or g Messengers from one Church to another so far as the Churches were gathered others were ordinary Officers as Pastors Teachers Elders and Deacons and they were not to go without the h Limits of the Congregation that had chosen them to administer either Baptism with water or the Lord's Supper a Gal. 1.1 b Acts 20.28 c Col. 4.17 d Rev. 21.14 e 2 Cor. 11.13 * Rev. 2.2 f 2 Cor. 5.20 g 2 Cor. 8.23 h Acts 20.28 Rev. 3.8 Mat. 24.45 Yet we read of one John Smith first a Minister in England after joyned himself a Member of the English Church at Amsterdam where Henry Ainsworth was Teacher and for sin was cast out of that Church soon after Satan drew him to deny the Covenant preached to Abraham to be the Covenant of Grace which led him to deny his Baptism received in Infancy And though there were many more then of his Judgment yet they knew not where to have an Administrator to begin Baptism by dipping therefore as Satan had begun to instruct him he added Sin unto Sin and baptized himself then he baptized one Mr. Helvish and John Morton with the rest And this is testified by one Mr. Jessop who as he saith was one of them and after by grace renounced their evil doings and wrote a Book against them entituled a Discovery of the Errors of that People in the Year 1623 pag. 65. Likewise H. Ainsworth saith Mr. Smith baptized himself in his Book called a Defence of Holy Scripture wrote against Smith pag. 69 82. So saith Mr. Clifton in his Christian Plea against Mr. Smith pag. 185 224. Now let the wise judg in what abominable disorder they retain their Baptism ever since from Mr. Smith and whether it stinketh not in the Nostrils of the Lord ever since as the Ministry of Corah and his Company Moreover as Water-Baptism came in a place of Circumcision and when Israel fell into Apostacy yet they in that estate did circumcise and when they returned by repentance unto the Lord and renewed their Covenant the Lord did not require them to reiterate or b circumcise them again that were circumcised in Apostacy though they might have gathered the foreskin again by Surgery as the Apostle c observeth so likewise Joseph Antiq. lib. 12. cap. 6. and also History declares Having afore shewed how in this Land a Gospel-Church was planted after fell into Apostacy yet they still baptized their Children as the Apostles did the Housholds afore-proved to be Children So that when we that were baptized in Apostacy are returned by the Call of God to the Lord by unfeigned Repentance we are not to rebaptize again those that were baptized in Apostacy seeing the Covenant is the same that Circumcision was a Seal of as now Water-Baptism is And thus we have a ground in God's Word for our practice which they have not that receive their Baptism from John Smith that baptized himself as afore proved And thus when all God's Ordinances are ended the whole is concluded by Prayer a Col. 2.11 12. b 2 Chron. 30.

In chap. 6 is shewed How that for the Sins of the Churches who began to revolt from the Faith once given to the Saints which they were commanded to a contend for but neglecting their b Watch herein Hypocrites crept in among them deluding them by their c fair Speeches so deceiving the hearts of the simple they soon embraced the Doctrine of Antichrist for many Opposers of the Truth were in those days And so the Churches fell more and more from the Truth as was clearly signified by the opening of the Seals Rev. 6. and sounding of the Trumpets Rev. 8. So that the Sun wherewith the Church was cloathed became black as d Sackcloth of Hair the Moon bloody the Stars the Ministers fell from the heavenly Doctrines of Faith to e earthly things like unto the Doctrine of these times that Men speak evil of those things they cannot comprehend by f corrupt Nature So that the heavenly State of the Church was rolled up together as a g Scroll That as God of old delivered his Church for like sins into the hands of the old Babylonians who destroyed both Temple and City and killed many and would not suffer their Bodies to be put in the h Grave Even so did the Lord deliver the Christians into the hands of the Spiritual Babylon the Romish Harlot who like old Babylon killed many of God's Servants and would not suffer their Bodies to be put in the i Grave Notwithstanding though the Beast was said in a sense to overcome k he Saints yet he could not for they were with Christ in this War the called chosen and faithful l all the time of the thousand Years of the Beasts Reign and would not worship the Beast nor his Image neither had received his Mark in their Foreheads by openly yielding unto his Canons nor secretly in their Hands by paying his Priests their duties as they call them but by Falth keeping the Commands of God they lived and m reigned with Christ a thousand years on n Earth and this was in the time of the Beast's Reign else the Praise given them by God's Spirit had not been properly belonging unto them of not worshipping the Beast So that they are under a great Mistake that have taught from Rev. 20.4 that the Saints have not yet reigned with Christ on Earth and how many have been deceived in this Point by them when the Saints Reign on Earth is not after an earthly manner as in pag. 18. is shewed but over Sin the World and the Devil and this is the Saints Victory even their Faith So saith Paul I have fought the good Fight I have finished my Course I have kept the Faith henceforth there is laid up for me a Crown not of Gold as some expect on Earth but of Righteousness and Glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ a Jude v. 3. b 1 Cor. 16.13 c Rom. 16.18 d Rev. 6 12. e Phil. 3.19 f Jude 10.

As God of old in Wrath remembred mercy to his ancient Church captivated in Babylon signified to Ezekiel there by the little Book given him to a eat that he must prophesie again to the dry b Bones to call them to Repentance and to return and build the Temple as was further signified to Zachary by a measuring c Line shewed him that Jerusalem should be built and the Temple in it and God's Worship restored as was accomplished in the days of Nehemiah Ezra Zachary and Haggai As their Books do shew at large Even so did the Lord in Wrath remember Mercy to his Church captivated by the spiritual Babylon Therefore by a like Sign as was shewed to Ezekiel so to John that he must eat the little d Book signifying how the Lord after a thousand years of the Beasts Reign would raise up his faithful Servants and deliver his Captives as was fulfilled in the end of the sixth Seal Rev. 7. and the beginning of the seventh with a measure of John's Spirit to call his Elect out of the Spiritual e Babylon the Romish Church the great City which reigned over the Kings of the Earth whose f City was so large as she reigned over all People Kindreds Tongues and Nations where her Canons and Orders were obeyed So that to the Elect among these must the Eaters of the little Book prophesy as Ezekiel did to the dry Bones that lay dead in the g Antichristian Errors So that the rest of the dead lived not again h since their Fall in Adam and their own Trespasses and Sins since comitted in spiritual i Fornication with the Romish Harlot until the thousand years Reign of the Beast was ended which time of her Reign to wit her Eclesiastical Estate in making Laws over Mens Consciences began about the year of our Lord 313 or 315. and made not an end of making Laws till about the year 1564. The Councel of Trent was the last wherein the Beast perceiving that the Lord began to raise up his Servants to shew all Nations deluded by her k Sorceries the Judgment of the great Whore who now did gather together her Armies of m Locusts in this last Councel but all in vain as was said to Ezekiel when God's time was come to deliver his People out of old Babylon The Time is at hand and the n Effect of every Vision So was it in like sence said to John There shall be Time no o longer But in the dayes of the Voice of the seventh Angel when he shall begin to sound the Mysteries of God shall be finished as he hath declared to his Servants the Prophets So that it appeareth the last great Mystery in the Prophets before Christ's coming to Judgment was to raise up all his Elect out of the Graves of Sin as is this last restoring of his Church out of the spiritual Babylon so that from the time the Kingdom of Israel was divided under p Rehoboam there was no Mystery more to be observed from that Estate as it is written Behold Israel 1 Cor. 10.18 but in their Captivity and Return out of the same Which second Temple building answered this second Restauration as aforesaid in these last days A Point worth observing a Ezek. 3.3 b Ezek. 3.7 c Rev. 18.4 f Rev. 17.18 g Eph. 2.1 2. h Rev. 20.5 i Rev. 17.2 k Rev. 18.23 l Rev. 17.1 m Rev. 9.3 n Ezek. 12.22 o Rev. 10.6 p 1 Kin. 11.11 12 13. 4.
