over them and they shall submit unto him and by him they shall be tryed judged and humbled and made to acknowledge their sins as Iosephs brethren was by him and with much joy and comfort will he make known himselfe unto them and they shall know him even that Iesus whom they persecuted and shall be humbled for him Zacha. 12.10 so he was their Saviour and reigned with them and that man which for the spirits sake in him they persecuted and sold him would God preserve and keep in all his afflictions as he did Ioseph and Christ and through afflictions will God bring him to honour with himselfe he will both humble him and save him And as the Father and Brethren of Joseph after he was made known unto them left their own Countrey to come and live with him in Aegypt which was the children of Israels first going into Aegypt to live in a strange Land which was not theirs so the Father Mother and all the Brethren of Christ after the flesh must with Abraham Isaac and Jacob leave their own countrey and fathers house and come to live with Christ in a strange Land which they know not Gen. 12.1 2 3. so did Joseph in his afflictions when he was sent away by his Brethren he nor they knew not of themselves whether they sent him Deut. 8.2 Neither did Israel when God led them forty yeers in the Wilderness and fed them with Manna from heaven which they knew not but thus did God for the good of all I rael that he might humble them and save them And therefore my Brethren Friends and Enemies so called may he with Joseph say to them by whom he hath suffered any of the afflictions of Joseph It was not you that did it but the Lord who doth all things according to the counsel of his own will and maketh all things work together for good to them that love God Rom. 8.28 Gen. 58.19 20 21. Acts 4.27 28. and will himself bring good out of the greatest evil as he did in this against Joseph and in that against Christ and so in all things that is done for to glorifie himself and thus will God make all things work together for the furtherance of truth the destruction of its Enemies the manifestation of his glory and the good of all people CHAP. IIII. How Pharoah and the Aegyptians and all that with them to this day do betray and persecute accuse judge and condemn any for conscience towards God are acted by the Devil hardened and commanded to it by God how with Cain Judas and the Devil they are all Gods servants doing their devillish dark and black work and whose spirit in them shall with the Devil Death Hell and false Prophet and the Beast which was and is not gone into perdition be damned and dye the second death when and how THE fall of Adam and slaying of Abel which was to this day in the persecution of any that do both persecute and are persecuted all is done by God and for God and God doth it to glorifie himselfe by it wherefore whatsoever God calls you unto go out unto it and not resist him in it for no one shall proceed farther in any thing then God will and therefore when Abraham went to slay his son Isaac it was by the command of God and God was with him in it and Abrahams faith the more strengthened by it and in time of persecution truth will the more increase and therefore men shall the more persecute it as the new Pharoah did the children when they began to multiply in Egypt and God hardned Pharoahs heart that he should not let Israel go Exod. 1.7 8 9 10. Exod. 7.3 4. but should afflict them so long in Egypt that they might the more increase and at last come out by great judgements and after he had let them go he hardned the hearts of the Egyptians to persist in persecution against them and to follow them through the red sea Exod. 14.4.30.30 that he might himselfe get honour upon Pharoah and all his host in their destruction and Israels deliverance and before any deliverance can be of any to any there must first be a bondage or else there can be no deliverance and no deliverance can be without judgement and therefore God sent them into Egypt to be affl cted and imbondaged by Pharoah and after that by his judgements brought them out with great substance so all that Pharoah did against Is●ael God made to be for their good and afterwards judged their enemies and he doth it that all men might fear before him So in like manner God to make his power known upon the enemies of his people to this day for his own honour his peoples good and the advancement of truth doth somtimes deliver them up into the hands of their enemies to be afflicted and imprisoned by them and doth harden their hearts against them as he did Pharoah against Israel● who will sometimes through policie to increase their bondage deceitfully promise them libertie yet are their hearts still hardned as Phaorahs was not to let them go but to lay more and more upon them by plotting new evils against them to more afflict them as Pharoah did and which by experience I my selfe have found from the like spirit of Pharoah in these dayes of persecution as that which God ever did and to this day doth to manifest his power the greater in delivering his people out of their enemies hands and so bring them through the wilderness to try them as the way of God unto salvation and in which way all men are to stand still and see the salvation of God Num. 22.5 6. And as did Pharoah to oppress Israel in Egypt when he feared they would grow to stronge for him so Balaack King of the Moabites when he saw Israel to multiply and be too many for him he sent messengers to Balaam to come and curse the children of Israel and God turned it all unto Israels good for in-stead of cursing them God made him all together to bless them then said Balam to Balaack shewing Gods work in all things how can I curse where God hath not cursed and how can I detest where God hath not detested thereore said he if Balaack would give me his house full of Gold and Silver I can not pass the commandment of the Lord to do either good or bad of my own mind Num. 24.12 13. but as the Lord hath said that shall I do and the Lord is not a man that he should lye nor the son of man that he should repent Num. 23.19 20 21. but he hath said it and he will do it and I have received a commandment to bless for he hath blessed and I cannot reverse it and he seeth no iniquity in Jacob nor transgression in Israel but the Lord their God is with them and the joyful shout of a King is among them and unless he
