THE SERMON and Prophesie of JAMES HVNT Concerning the Marriage of the Lambe and of the confounding of the Whore of Babylon and to shew by what means she shall be brought to confusion Wherefore I James Hunt humbly beseech the Honourable House of PARLIAMENT for the mercies of God that you will read this book with observation for to see and prove whether it be agreeable to the honour and glory of God and the confounding of the Devill LONDON Printed in the yeer 1642. THE SERMON AND Prophesie of James Hunt concerning the marriage of the Lambe and of the confounding of the Whore of Babylon CHristian brethren and sisters it is written in the 21. Chapter of the Revelation vers 6. Christ Jesus who is the perfect God he saith plainly I am Alpha and Omega the beginning and the end I will give to him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely Which water of life I shall plainly prove signifieth the spirituall Word of God in the doctrine of the new Testament which proceedeth from the holy Unity Father Son and holy Ghost For there are three that bear record in heaven the Father the Word and the holy Goost and these three are one In 1. Joh. Chap. 5. ver 7. the Word signifieth Christ Jesus who is the second person in unity and I shall plainly prove that those people that shall be reconciled to Christ by drinking freely of the water of life they shall be joyned to the holy Unity My first proofe is in 2. Cori●t 13.5 Examine your selves whether you be in the faith Know ye not that Jesus Christ is in you except ye be reprobates How is Christ in his people I say by the venue and divine power of his Word which is revealed in his glorious Gospel Again in 1. Cor. 6.19 What know you not that your body is the temple of the holy Ghost which is in you which ye have of God and ye are not your own for you are all bought with a price even with the precious water and blood of Jesus Christ for this is he which came by water and blood not by water onely but by water and blood 1. Joh. 5.6 Therefore I say again we are all bought with the precious water and bloud of Jesus Christ therefore glorifie God in your bodies and in your spirits which are Gods Again Ephes 4. v. 4. There is one body and one spirit one Lord one faith one God and Father of all who is above all and in you all These phrases of Scripture do plainly prove that all those people which are and shall be reconciled unto Christ and to his glorious Gospel they shall be joyned to the glorious unity Father Sonne and holy Ghost Again I can prove that Christ and his Church is as man and wife Christ is the Bridegroome and the Church they are the Bride so they shall be in number thousands of thousands For a man shall leave father and mother and be joyned to his wife and they two shall be one flesh This is a great mystery but I speak concerning Christ and the Church for we are members of his body of his flesh and of his bones Ephes 5. Therefore let us be glad and rejoyce and give honour to God for the marriage of the Lambe is come and his wife hath made her self ready his Minister hath made her self ready Revel 9. v. 7. And to her was granted that she should be arayed in fine linen clean and white for the fine linen is the righteousnesse of the Saints which have their robes washed and made white in the blood of the Lambe Revel 7.14 Their robes signifieth the inward man of the hearts of the people which is washed and made white in the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ for if we walk in the light as God our glorious Father is in the light We have fellowship one with another and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin 1. Joh. 7. Thus I have shewed you in brief the true signification of the marriage of the Lambe Now I come to my Text again Christ saith I will give to him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely Joh. 4.13 Christ said unto the woman which came to draw water out of Jacobs Well He that drinketh of this water shall thirst again but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst for the water that I shall give him will be in him a well of water springing up to everlasting life Which water of life plainly signifieth for to be the spirituall word of God In the Gospel of Christ which shall spring and multiply in the hearts of the faithfull that they shall be thorowly filled and satisfied therewith Again Ephes 5.15 Christ so loved his Church and gave himself for it that he might sanctifie and cleanse it with the washing of the water by the word which is by the powerfull preaching of the Word Again Hebr. 10.21 And having a high Priest over the house of God let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith having our hearts sprinkled from an evill conscience and our bodies washed with pure water Our bodies signifieth the inward man of the hearts of the people which is washed justified and glorified by the divine power of the Word of God for whom he cals them he justifies and whom he justifies them he also glorifieth Rom. 8.30 And the Spirit and the Bride say come Christ and his Ministery say come and let him that is athirst come and take the water of life freely Freely I have received and freely I declare it unto all the people that they may drink freely thereof for to rain with Christ in glory for ever Revel 22. Now on the other side I will shew you in brief the true signification of the great Whore that sitteth upon so many waters with whom the Kings of the earth have committed fornication and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication Revel 17. Now I shall prove these many waters must not be taken for temporall waters which is to be disdained with the bodily eye for he saith plainly in the 15. verse of the same chap. The waters which thou sawest where the Whore sitteth are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues Hereby I understand and prove that this great Whore that sits upon so many waters signifieth the Devill and all his carnall Ministers which have gathered to themselves so many false and corruptible doctrines And as they have corrupted their own minds so in like manner they have blinded and corrupted the minds of the people which are as yet held under their power For upon her forehead was her name written Mystery Babylon the great Mother of Harlots and all abominations of the earth Vers 5. Now I say againe this Babylon must not be taken for atemporall building for he saith plainly
