Earth and that nourish your hearts as in a day of slaughter it 's no marvel to see the Lord who is just in all his wayes and righteous in all his judgments strike down many thousands in a short time by his destroying Angel that is gone forth to smite the Earth and to shorten the dayes of the Wicked Oh Earth hear thou Nation of England be awakened and warned for a great Destruction and Calamity is begun in thee because of thy great wickedness and sin against God because of thy Oaths Drunkenness Covetousness and Lying Cursed speaking and Whoredoms and Pride of life and Persecution of the Innocent which hath been found in thee the Land is coming into a Desolation and the Destruction from the Almighty hangs over it and hastens to cut off the wicked Persecuters of the Innocent People that fear God and have good will towards all men If you repent not O you Inhabitants and People of England from the highest to the lowest that have had any hand in Persecuting Imprisoning and Banishing them that fear the Lord that by you in dirision have been called Quakers who made themselves a prey by departing from Iniquity and the great wickedness that abounds in the Land know ye assuredly that Judgment is towards you O ye Rulers Priests and People consider your wayes and your doings whereby you have incurr'd and brought upon your selves and the Nation the great displeasure of God and how should the Lord now plead with you but in his Wrath seing you have slighted the tenders of his love and long-suffering towards you Did not the Lord visit you and give you time and space to repent Did not the Lord by his Servants warn you in time and told you what Persecuting of an innocent People would bring upon you Are you not left without excuse if God now break forth in a way of Indignation and Judgement against you Is it not just Can you say God did not not call you and visit and warn you Nay verily the Lord hath called you time after time and the everlasting Gospel hath been sounded in your ears Oh People of England more than any other Nation or Kingdom whatsoever But O you Rulers Priests and People you have not answered the Love of the Lord by breaking off from your sins but you remain in your sins you have not obeyed the Voice of the Lord nor answered when the Lord hath called you out of your sins to save you from your sins he that hath shed his Blood a ransom for all and tasted death for every man you have done and are doing evil in his sight and none of you repents you of your evil deeds saying What have I done but goes on in evil and drinks up Iniquity as an Ox drinks up Water Therefore now is the fire of God's Jealousie kindled against you after a long day of Mercy and they that have sinned out their day by walking despitefully against the Spirit of Grace and the Visitation of God's Love the Indignation of the Lord they must feel and the Lord will laugh at their calamity and bring fearfulness upon them which all the force and strength of Armies and Ships cannot keep off And O ye Magistrates of England who live in sin envying that which is good and persecuting them that do well God hath visited you and warned you in great love and tenderness but you have not hearkened unto nor owned the Lord in his way of visiting you but dis-regarded and have stopped your ears against those whom God stirred up by his Spirit to visit you and warn you of your ungodly wayes and practices therefore must you feel trouble wrath and Judgement from God And remember you are once more warned to take heed how you partake with any in persecuting of them that fear the Lord and are real well-wishers of your Souls Oh beware of following a multitude to do evil and sin against God for all who are partakers any way with Persecutors in their fin mast assuredly drink of their Plagues Woes and Misery which is come and coming upon this Land and some Persecutors God will make signal Examples of his Wrath because they have gone in the way of Cain that wicked one that slew his Brother for the Righteous works he did O People slow of heart to believe what the Prophets saw and spoke though you will talk of their words touching Christs coming into the World to save sinners but you witness not Christs coming to put an end to sin in you and so you perish in your sins Oh! why will ye die in your sins Oh sinful Nation a Seed of evil doers why will you not hear the Law of God the Light of Christ what it speaketh in you Why do not you come to Christ in whom is Life and this Life is the Light of men which you are to believe in that you might be saved from your sins and come out of all your dead Wayes Worships and Sacrifices and vain Traditions which profit you not at all but keep you in death herein you long have lain out of the holy pure Life Christ is come and hath appeared in you that you might be partakers of Life and therefore desires not your death but rather that you might live and turn from your sins unto him that cleanseth from all sin that you might know a life out of sin out of the fleshly lustings that war against the Soul and as you come into the Life of God the lusts of the flesh the lust of the Eye and the pride of Life will die in you and Life and Salvation you must witness through death by keeping to that which slayes the old man with his deeds the Lord hath called you again and again but how have you stopped your ears and closed your eyes and rebelled against his Light The Lord hath stretched forth his hand all the day long and Wisdom hath cryed in your streets but you have not regarded but slighted God's Message to you and his Arm And Wisdom to gather you out of the crooked wayes and bypaths and many years hath God preached Repentance from dead works to you that ye might turn from the evil of your wayes and cease to do evil and learn to do well But alass how have you despised the Messengers of the Lord whom he sent unto you to preach Repentance and to warn you to fly from the Wrath to come but you have not brought forth fruits to Repentance but have hardned your hearts against them Stocking Stoning Whiping Imprisoning Banishing and despitefully using them And oh foolish people how have many of you mocked abused and shamefully intreated God's People and peculiar Children when in pure obedience to the Lord they were sent amongst you as Sheep amongst Wolves How have they been haled and beaten in your Cities Towns and Markets and the Priests and Hypocritical Professors have been chief in this work also instigating poor blind people to beat and hale out

ANOTHER TRUMPET SOUNDED In the Ears of the Inhabitants of England RULERS PRIESTS PEOPLE That they might be awakened and raised out of the grave of Sin and Trespasses which so long they have lain dead in That while you have time you might hearken to the Voice of CHRIST JESUS and obey Him who is the Light of the World who is come and calling you out of your Sins that you might be saved from them and cease to do Evil and learn to do well before your Day be quite over and the LORD's Wrath kindle against you so as there will be no remedy Written in tender Love to you all by JAMES PARKE a Servant of Truth and Righteousness London Printed in the Year 1667. Another Trumpet sounded c. OH People of England that have been talking much of Christ's Coming and Kingdom He is come a Light into the World and to them that have sat in darkness and under the region of the shadow of death hath the true Light shined and shineth forth out of the darkness doing the works in and for them that believe in it which none else can do rooting-out the vain thoughts and imaginations and what the Devil hath wrought in the heart Christs appearance and coming is to destroy that and this is the glorious effect of Christs coming to purge that out of the heart in which he takes no pleasure to purge out the filthiness of the flesh and the lustings after evil things for the flesh lusteth against the Spirit and warreth against the Spirit and all who believe in Christ Iesus the Light and wait in it a spiritual warring against the flesh begins to arise in them for a man's enemies lie near even the fleshly part in him so a spiritual warfare almost none pass through before they be overcomers of Sin or know the Devils works destroyed in them before any man be a conqueror he must be armed with the Armour of Light which is Gods Armour that must be put on and then people are fit to war against Sin this deadly enemy of their own house But most people remain altogether strangers to this spiritual warfare because they come not to believe in CHRIST the Light and so never come to know the house of Saul or the deadly enemy that lies near them destroyed and yet will talk of the coming of Christ and what he did for them at Ierusalem without them and that they are justified in their wicked works by the death of Christ though they never knew the variance begun in them against the flesh but have cryed Peace to themselves in the flesh and deeds of darkness but Christ said I come not to send Peace on Earth but a Sword and this none knows but those who are turned to the Light of Christ within them which shews them Sin and that which will cut it down even all the roots and branches of it and sets a man at variance against it And thus is the Word of the Lord known as a Sword to cut down sin and break mans peace in sin and transgression and herein is Christ's coming witnessed who comes not to send Peace on Earth but a Sword and to set a man at variance against himself against all his lovers against all his self-actings and self-righteousness and hereby doth he work that which none else can do he sets a man against himself to lay down self and to deny self and his own will and they are Disciples indeed others who love self and their evil deeds and will lay down nothing for Christ's sake they may be Disciples in words and in tongue but none in deed and in truth but those only who can leave all and deny all for Christ's sake as Christ said Except a man deny himself and take up the daily-Cross he cannot be my Disciple The Cross must be learnt subjected unto and taken up for while people despise the Cross of Christ they are not his Disciples indeed whatever they profess him in words in works they deny him and he that would save his Life shall lose it but be that will lay down his Life for Christs sake shall save it So ye People of England come to Christ the Light of the World and own his appearance and coming to break your false peace in your sins and your agreement with Death and covenant with Hell it shall not stand before him he will disanul it who by Fire and Sword is come to plead with all flesh and to break your false fleshly peace which your Leaders have begotten you into and cryed to you while you are in your sins and not in a true variance against your sin not in a true war against sin or striving against it but rather into an ease in it out of which you must be brought if ever you come to have peace with God and be saved from your sins Therefore come away out of Self out of Self-love out of your own wills O people return while you have time out of folly and transgressions out of the Devils works and say not within your selves nor one to another that you are saved by the Death of Christ while you are in your Drunkenness Whoredoms Covetousness Lying Cheating Swearing and Cursed-speaking and Dissembling with God and man for these are all the Devils works And Christ being known a Saviour he faves out of Sin the Devils works and destroyes the Devil and all his works and he died for that very end and he riseth in all them that fear him for that very end to bring down the Man of Sin Thou Drunkard Christ died to bring thee off thy Drunkenness thou Swearer to bring thee to fear an Oath and thou Liar to bring thee off thy Lying and thou Covetous one to bring thee off thy Covetousness and all you Adulterers and Adulteresses to bring you off the Lust of the Eye and the Lust of the flesh and your Whoredoms and Uncleanness and you Proud and Lofty ones who are lifted up in Pride and the Fashions of the World O lay it away for Christ who was meek and low of heart of whom you ought to learn and who is come a light in you comes to bring down every high thought and all that which is lifted up over the pure Light in you which shews you your sins your pride of life your high-mindedness being out of the fear of God and in rebellion against the true Light wherewith you are enlightned which is manifest to destroy that which is contrary to God Oh be not stiffnecked but hearken to the Voice of Christ Jesus the only way to God whose way is out of sin Thou Drunkard and prophane person dost thou not know the Drunkard shall not inherit Gods Kingdom nor the Swearer nor Liar nor Covetous Worldling nor dissembling Hypocrite nor the Adulterer nor Unclean Person nor the Proud whose King the Devil is O People while you have time think of this you that forget God that are wanton upon the
