A56033	The hour of God's judgments come and coming upon the wicked world shewing how iniquity will prove the ruin of all people, who do not repent and turn to God, whilst yet they have time : with an exhortation in the love of God to people of all nations, to cease to do evil, and to forsake those provoking sins, that hath kindled the wrath of God, that the judgments now threatning many nations may be turned away.	Parke, James, 1636-1696.	1690 (1690)	Wing P373; ESTC R7298	20,874	26

or evil to them How have the Righteous been made the Song of Drunkards debauched Swearers and Damners who scarce could speak but in a Cursed and Danming manner What scorn and derision hath the Just met with in these latter days with the many Perils and Dangers on every side and from all sorts of wicked Men Women and Children is very well known to the Lord God who is coming with Power to take Vengeance upon his Adversaries and to Recompence all such according to their works you who are guilty every where your wickedness will not go unpunished it will come upon your own Heads and your treacherous dealing will pursue you and fall heavy upon you when the Righteous Judge shall judge and condemn you for it the Lord will not spare such who in their abominable Pride Debauchery and Filthiness walk the Streets as if they would out-dare the Most high that gave them Breath and Being in this world with their Pride and Filthiness And now Destruction to the Wicked is threatned how hath Fear surprised Multitudes not the fear of God but the fear of Destruction or some other Evil to overtake them and they cannot be quiet nor at rest they disturb and disquiet one another because the Way of Peace is hid from their them and also the Sinners in Sion are afraid and fearfulness surpriseth Hypocrites who cannot abide the day of the Lord 's coming nor stand when he appeareth for his appearance is and will be very dreadful to all the Workers of Iniquity to whom the Lord will say Depar● from me I know you not Such shall by no means escape the Wrath of the Lamb who is a righteous just and equal Judge and will Judge with Equity and do all Men Right in Judgment and is no respecter of Persons but in every Nation such as fear God and work Righteousness are accepted of him but they that fear not God nor work Righteousness will be rejected condemned and punished by him of what Nation Kindred People or Tongue soever Papish or Protestant or what Name and Profession soever they may go under or be known by for that will stand them in no stead when the Lord pleadeth with them and cometh to punish the Inhabitants of the Earth for their Iniquity that will prove the Ruin of them who are then found therein the Rich Mens Silver and Gold will not be able to deliver them from the Wrath of the Lamb now appearing as an Angry Judge Go too now therefore ye Rich Men that trust in uncertain Riches and in an Arm of Flesh but not in the living God Weep and Howle for the Misery that is coming upon you who are lovers of Pleasures more than lovers of God And you that have oppressed others to advance your selves by defraud and dishonest Gain and wronged the Poor to set your Nests on high the Righeous Lord God will Visit for these things and Recompence the evil of your wayes and doings upon your Heads if you do not cease therefrom and truly repent thereof while you have time Oh the manifold Provocations by which the Lord hath been and still is provoked to Wrath and Indignation by a sinful People and seed of Evil-doers laden with Iniquity and some are wise to do evil become Serpents and as a Generation of Vipers in imagining and doing evil but to do good they have no knowledge and it is sad and grievous to see the Brutishness Sensuallity and Devillishness many appeared in filled with Envy and Enmity against that which is good and them who keep therein from day to day and still such profess Christ Jesus in words and call him Lord and Master but do not honour him nor fear him neither keep his Commands but with their wicked works Spit upon him Grucifie him afresh again and how hath he been put to shame all Christendom over by them that seem to be Christians in words but are not so in deeds Did not Christ Jesus testifie against the Scribes Pharisces and hard hearted Jews that set themselves against him with the Chief Priests to take away his Life because their deeds were evil and he tould them They were of their Father the Devil and did his works Although they owned and professed God the Father that would not hide them or cover them from the Wrath of God when it was kindled and broke forth against them to punish and scatter them for rejecting and hating of him without a cause yet no less punishment would satisfie them but Crucifiing of him puting of him to Death who laid down his Life to give them Life Eternal and to redeem their Souls out of Death and Damnation if they would have received him then at his coming but because of the hatred they had to him and the cruel usage that spotless Lamb had from that Generation God was Wrath with them continuing his displeasure upon their Prosterity unto this day And may not you expect as sore a punishment who own him in words profess him and call him Lord and Master yet notwithstanding by your wicked works you slay him ye condemn and kill the Just and he doth not resist you you dishonour him and put him to shame plainly shewing that you are of the Generation of them who killed the Prophets Christ Jesus and his Apostles and accounted them not fit to live upon the Earth of whom the World indeed was not worthy My Heart truly is sorrowful and I am in pain to consider of what I see coming upon this evil and untoward Generation now O that they had an Ear open and a Heart to understand the Voice of the Lord and his Counsel to them before it be to late and the Door of Mercy and Favour from God be shut against them that they might repent that the Lord God may turn away his Wrath that they perish not For the Sword of the Lord is drawn forth forbished and made bright to make a sore Slaughter in many Nations and Countries by his Powerful Hand although People will not see it when 't is lifted up they shall see it and be ashamed astonished and confounded and by the immediate Hand of the Lord many People will fall and be cut down as the Grass whilst the carnal Sword also doth its part what the Lord permits and suffers to be acted by it in any flourishing City or strong Nation and he can raise up whomsoever he pleaseth as Instruments in his Hand to make his Power known that his Name may be declared throughout all the Earth therefore he pulleth down one Prince and Potentate and raiseth up another in his stead in the Kingdoms of this World that they may know that the Most high rules in the Kingdoms of men and giveth them to whomsoever he will and who shall say unto him What dost thou when he poureth out Contempt upon Princes and causeth them to wander where there is no way for he hath their Hearts and all Men in his Hand he can hold
