Glory and Majesty and of his Justice that when for one Sin he threw down the Angels those Glorious Spirits into Hell and he would take no Ransom or Redemption for them and though he hath Mercy on the Sons of Men according to his own Election or Purpose and according to that that he hath Purchased for himself in Christ Jesus before the Foundation of the World was laid yet in Time he made his Son a Sacrifice before Men and Angels to bring his Chosen Ones to Glory That he should take Pleasure to send his own Son out of his Bosom who was the Delight of his Soul and Bruise him for our Sins yet it pleased the Father to Bruise him The most Holy and Righteous God that had but One Son One only Begotten Son that was the Delight of his Soul and should take Pleasure to Bruise him that we might be Healed and laid Stripes upon him that we might be Healed Oh the Heighth and Depth Oh the Length and Breadth of the Love of God in Christ Jesus unto poor Souls Oh this is that the Angels do desire to stoop down and look into and to know more of this great Mystery of the Love of God in Christ and that God should take upon him the Nature of Man And put him into that Glorious Union with his own Son and that he should leave the Angels though Christ was made a a little lower than they for Suffering Death for us Yet now because the Nature of Man is united to the Godhead by Vertue of that Marriage and Union we become the Sons of God and Heirs of Glory Those that are Adopted by Jesus Christ are brought near to the Throne of Glory are in a High and Glorious Communion and Fellowship with the Father and Spirit owned of all the Holy Angels and therefore they do stand without the Throne as in several Places of the Revelations and round about the Elders and round those that were given to the Lamb as in the Fifth of the Revelations and many other Scriptures they stand without but there is another Company within which is the Twenty-four Elders and Four Living Creatures they fall down and worship God they are nearer than the Angels Oh! Who hath Credited who hath Believed this Report And to whom is the Arm of the Lord Revealed Oh! How many Professors are there in this Day in this Nation that call upon the Name of Christ and that say they shall be Saved by Christ and do Live and Trust most in their own Works and Righteousness and never come to the Knowledge and Understanding of this great Mystery of the Love of God in Christ Who never received those Teachings from the Anointing and according to the New Covenant where it is promised that they shall be all Taught of God all the Children of God shall be Taught of him and there is no one can Teach these but the Father none can draw them to the Son but the Father and no Man can come to the Father but through the Son And this great Mystery is both by the Light and Operation of the Holy Spirit who makes the New Creature in the Soul O that God would pour out of his Holy Spirit that God would pour out the Spirit of the New Covenant and the Spirit of the Gospel and the Spirit that can declare the Mystery of God's Word in the Spirit and that he hath made Manifest through Jesus Christ O there is much talking and speaking in the Name of Christ And how many Men spend little Time in getting Evidences in the Power and Demonstration of the Spirit and come to apprehend God in Christ that speak of him Oh! There are few of these the Lord knows O that the Anointing may be poured out more now according to this Faith in the Way of this Grace and in this Love of God even in the Electing Love of the Father and in the Redeeming Blood of Jesus Christ according to the purchased Possession that he hath obtained through his own Righteousness wherein God hath been Just also in justifying the Ungodly and among them such a poor simple Piece of Dust and Ashes as I have been and have to this Day little glorified my Father and yet I can call him Father through some Measure of his Spirit and Father according to the Spirit of Adoption too and can say the Lord Jesus hath given himself for me and I take the Lord Jesus Christ as the great Gift of the Father desiring to bear Witness of that Love and of that wonderful Grace and Glory that he hath made me Partaker of in and through him Oh! Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath called me to this Hope and who hath made me Partaker of this Glory that the Saints are Enlightened in And now I long to see the Face of this Father and of his Son though I have such a Number of Sins in me and though I have an Interest in him and can call him Father at any Time without doubt and in full Assurance of Faith in the Holy Spirit yet if Jesus Christ were not there to present me Faultless before the Presence of God I should be afraid to appear before him but he is able to do it and therefore saith the Apostle Now unto him that is able to Save you and to present you Faultless before the Presence of his Glory with exceeding Joy c. I am a poor Sinful Piece full of Iniquity laden with many Burdens that have a Body of Death that I carry about me and I am now about to lay it down and my Soul shall enter into Eternal Life and be made Perfect in a Moment through the Mighty Power of God that hath wrought that Glorious Work of raising Christ from the Dead Oh! All my Strength and all my Joy and all my Life is in Christ and in him alone And I have a Righteousness already of his Working according to his own Grace and according to his own Mighty Power and according to his own Mercy that he hath been pleased to Work in me and so hath been pleased to keep me in a very Wicked and in a very Evil Day by the Power of his Grace And I desire to glorifie my Father and many Years have I been in that Work that hath been of late in this Nation few and evil hath been the Days of my Pilgrimage but I have desired to serve the Lord with Faithfulness and in the Integrity of my Soul without Prejudice against any Creature and it hath been the Desire of my Soul to approve my self Faithful towards God and towards Man And what I have done I have done it in Obedience to the Lord that I had in my Eye and in my Heart There are many Things laid upon many of those that profess the Kingdom and Glorious Appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ as if they were Enemies to Magistracy and Ministry and as if so be we were for the

A Brief Account OF THE BEHAVIOUR c. BY a Commission of Oyer and Terminer for the Trial of the King's Pretended Judges began at the Old Bailey Octob. 10th 1660 the aforesaid Persons with many others were Sentenc'd to Death of which Tho. Harrison or Major-General Harrison was the First that was Executed which was on Saturday the 13th of October following According to his Sentence he was drawn on a Hurdle from Newgate to Charing-cross where within certain Rales made on Purpose a Gibbet was erected When he came to the sight of the Gallows he was transported with Joy and his Servant asked him how he did He answered Never better in my Life His Servant told him Sir there is a Crown of Glory ready for you O yes Said he I see it When he was taken off the Sledge the Hangman desired him to forgive him I do forgive thee said he with all my Heart as it is a Sin against me and told him he wisht him all Happiness and further said Alas poor Man Thou dost it ignorantly the Lord grant that this Sin may not be laid to thy Charge and putting his Hand into his Pocket gave him all the Money he had and so parting with his Servant hugging of him in his Arms went up the Ladder with an undaunted Countenance Major-Gen Harrison's Speech upon the Ladder Gentlemen I Did not expect to have spoken a Word to you at this Time but seeing there is Silence commanded I will speak something of the Work God hath in Hand in our Days Many of you have been Witnesses of the Finger of God that hath been seen among us of late Years in the Deliverance of his People from their Oppressors and in bringing to Judgment those that were guilty of the Precious Blood of the Dear Servants of the Lord And how God did witness thereto by many wonderful and evident Testimonies as it were immediately from Heaven insomuch that many of our Enemies who were Persons of no mean Quality were forced to confess That God was with us and if God did but stand Neuter they should not value us and therefore seeing the Finger of God hath been pleading this Cause I shall not need to speak much to it In which Work I with others were engaged for the which I do from my Soul bless the Name of God who out of the exceeding Riches of his Grace accounted me worthy to be instrumental in so Glorious a Work and though I am wrongfully charged with Murder and Bloodshed yet I must tell you I have kept a good Conscience both towards God and towards Man I never had Malice against any Man neither did I act maliciously towards any Person but as I judged them to be Enemies to God and his People And the Lord is my Witness that I have done what I did out of the Sincerity of my Heart to the Lord I bless God I have no Guilt upon my Conscience but the Spirit of God beareth Witness that my Actions are acceptable to the Lord through Jesus Christ though I have been compassed about with manifold Infirmities Failings and Inperfections in my Holiest Duties but in this I have Comfort and Consolation that I have Peace with God and do see all my Sins washt away in the Blood of my Dear Saviour And I do declare as before the Lord that I would not be guilty Wittingly nor Willingly of the Blood of the meanest Son no not for Ten Thousand Worlds much less of the Blood of such as I am charged with I have again and again besought the Lord with Tears to make known his Will and Mind unto me concerning it and to this Day he hath rather confirmed me in the Justice of it and therefore I leave it to him and to him I commit my Ways but some that were Eminent in the Work did wickedly turn aside themselves and to set up their Nests on high which caused great Dishonour to the Name of God and the Profession they had made And the Lord knows I could have suffered more than this rather than have fallen in with them in that Iniquity though I was offered what I would if I would have joined with them my Aim in all my Proceedings was the Glory of God and the Good of his People and the Welfare of the whole Common-wealth The People observing him to tremble in his Hands and Legs he taking notice of it said Gentlemen By Reason of some Scoffing that I do hear I judge that some do think I am afraid to Die by the shaking I have in my Hands and Knees I tell you no but it is by Reason of much Blood I have lost in the Wars and many Wounds I have received in my Body which caused this Shaking and Weakness in my Nerves I have had it this Twelve Years I speak this to the Praise and Glory of God he hath carried me above the Fear of Death and I value not my Life because I go to my Father and am assured I shall take it up again Gentlemen Take notice that for being instrumental in that Cause and Interest of the Son of God which hath been pleaded amongst us and which God hath witnessed too by Appeals and wonderful Victories I am brought to this Place to suffer Death this Day and if I had Ten Thousand Lives I could freely and cheerfully lay them down all to Witness to this Matter Oh what am I poor Worm that I should be accounted Worthy to suffer any Thing for the Sake of my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ I have gone joyfully and willingly many a Time to lay down my Life upon the Account of Christ but never with so much Joy and Freedom as at this Time I do not lay down my Life by constraint but willingly for if I had been minded to have run away I might have had many Opportunities but being so clear in the Thing I durst not turn my Back nor step a Foot out of the Way by Reason I had been engaged in the Service of so Glorious and Great a God however Men presume to call it by hard Names yet I believe e'er it be long the Lord will make it known from Heaven that there was more of God in it than Men are now aware of All the Gods of the Nations are but Idols they have Eyes but see not and Mouths but speak not and cannot save those that trust in them But my God is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords before whom all you here and all Nations are but as the Drop of a Bucket And he will never leave those that truly trust in him unto whose Glory I shall surely go and shall sit on the Right Hand of Christ in Heaven it may be to judge those that have Vnjustly judged me Matth. 25. 33 34. 1 Cor. 6. 2. The Sheriff minding him of the shortness of Time if he had any Thing to say to the People he might He said I do desire as from my own Soul that they
