A58412	A tender visitation of love to professors and profane, but especially to the inhabitants of the town of Waymouth. With some directions how they may try themselves, whether they are yet in their sins, or whether they are come to him that makes an end of sin. Also a warning to all sorts of people, that they may repent of the evil of their wayes whilest the day of mercy lasteth, least repentance be hid from their eyes. Howl ye inhabitants of the earth, for the day of vengeance is at hand, the Lord will stain the glory of all flesh. Being written from the breathings of life, by a hand-maid of the Lord, S. R.	S. R.	1661 (1661)	Wing R77; ESTC R219656	10,437	16

from your sins whilest you are here then I say to you all as I have received it from the Lord you shall never be made free from your sins at all but if you die in your sins you shall perish eternally in them For after death comes Judgement and in the Grave there is no Repentance and in the Pit remission of sins is not to be found Therefore I say it upon you in the fear of God all people what ever you are Professors or Prophance prize your time whilest you have it least repentance be hid from your eyes and darkness come upon you unawares for in the night none can work Man was made after the Image of God Created was he in purity and holinesse but when man disobeyed the Commandements of the Lord he lost his pure Image and so man became lyable to the wrath and curse of God and because man went out into the disobedience he was driven out from the presence of the Lord God now man is in the alienated estate in the separation gone from his Maker driven out from the presence of the Lord God man hath lost his dominion over the Creatures by breaking Gods holy Commandements and for mans Transgressions was the flaming sword placed in the midst of the Garden which turned every way to keep the way of the tree of Life the tree of Knowledge was the forbidden fruit mark all man-kind hath fallen in Adam the first man they have lost their Image they are in the Separation in the Alienated Estate gone from the Lord God quite driven out from his pure presence they have all fed upon the tree forbidden the tree of Knowledge which makes wise the Serpents meat is fed upon for which cause the ground was curst man is in the curst ground whilest he stands in the Alienation from God the curst nature stands in him it bears rule in him and hath dominion over him so that it leadeth him into Captivity to the law of sin and death Now all men and women who hath been in the fallen estate can never come to God again but as they posse through the flaming sword which God hath placed in the Garden to keep the way of the tree of life I speak near to the understandings of people that so if any are willing to be undeceived they may know and read what I say mark there is none I say can ever come to God again but as they come through the flaming sword the first forward nature which hath led all men and women into the separation from God must be slain by sire and sword the wrath of God must be known to passe upon the head of that Nature which led out into the Transgression there is nothing which is unclean or unholy that leads into the Separation must be kept alive that which is for the sword must be cut down by the sword and that which is for the fire must be destroyed by the fire of Gods wrath and vengeance and this I say whosoever comes to God again to have their Image renewed in the Kingdome of God must passe thorow great Troubles Tryals and Tribulations such as hath not been known since the World began till the old Nature which is the Image of the old man I say till that Nature is destroyed true peace is not to be known for saith Christ I came not to bring peace on the Farth but a sword first and sudden destruction and this sword maketh an end of sin and cuts down and destroyes the Devils Nature in men and women which hath long bore rule in their hearts and had the Dominion over them Now all you who are in the fallen estate try your deeds by the Light that your dark understandings may be opened come forth to the Lords Battel all you who are at ease in the flesh the battell is begun and the wo of the Lord is against all such who are at ease All upon your guard stand every man to his watch diligence is required of all people prove and see if any of you have known a day of slaughter upon the man of sin and if you have not known a day of slaughter upon the man of sin then I say to you all in Gods fear it is not safety for any of you to sit down satisfied or to give ease to your flesh till you know your iniquities forgiven you and your sins blotted out and removed and done away as a thick Cloud And this is to be done in man felt and witnest in man and woman the Marriage day is come wherein many are espoused to one Husband Christ Jesus the Lamb of life which taketh away the sins of the World he is become the Teacher of his people so that they need not another to teach them and here the woman is known to learn wisdome of her Husband at home and not to aske it of others the woman is to learn in silence of her Husband Christ the Husband and head of Male and Female he who was from everlasting to everlasting whose dayes are without beginning or ending and this is he which guides and rules all the Children of the day the babes begotten of God they cannot say the written word is their guide and rule but they know and witnesse him to guide and rule them which maketh an end of sin and destroyes the Devils works Wo to the false Teachers which teach lies and lead the people in an unknown path which the Lord God hath no pleasure in a bed of torments is prepared for them endlesse misery must come upon them unlesse they cease from deceiving the Lords people For truth sake I cannot rest and for the Seeds sake I cannot hold my tongue the Lord God hath spoken in me how can I keep silence He hath uttered his voice in me like a King going to the Battel the Instruments for war is already prepared the battel day is come the batte over all the whole earth that the Nations may know him come to reign whose right it is he that hath long been kept in bondage in a strange Land under a strange King the Lamb of life is he called the bright morning Star of David which giveth light to those that sat in darkness the Lamb of life shall reign as a King in Israel and all dark powers in Nations and Kingdoms shall bow and bend before him Nobles shall faint to see his Authority Kings shall be afraid when he appeareth to make known his power a day of shaking must come that many may see his Power Sions redemption draweth nigh let the little ones rejoyce deliverance must be known to the captives let the Babes sing for joy O land of Oppressors you which lie in wait for blood take heed to your wayes look to it the Lord God hath said it and it will assuredly come to passe I say the Lord God hath spoken it that he will sweep the land of oppressors the besom of destuction is in his hand he will make men know that there is a God in Israel he hath power to throw down root up scatter and destroy all that is not of his own building planting gathering or begetting the strength of man shall not hinder it the powers of darknesse death and hell nor the Grave shall not hinder it I will make my Miracles known saith the Lord God Almighty the Viols of my indignation will I swiftly pour out upon all that doth evil I will make my Miracles known amongst thousands I the Lord will stain the glory of man I the Lord will stain mans Glory I will dash the Pot sheards of the earth together one against another and they shall be broken to pieces and Bryars and Thorns must be burnt up who are standing together in battel against the Lord God of the whole earth Wo to the Inhabitants of the Earth and of the Sea for the Devil is come down in a rage and hath but a short time to Reign THE END

the light because their deeds are evil Now this witnesse which makes every man and womans state and conditions manifest is light and this light is Christ Jesus the Son of the living God who was Crucified and slain by the blood-thirsty chief Priests and Rulers who took councel together against him And this Lord Jesus who was spiritually abused amongst the ungodly Generation the same is he which is risen and come in the flesh with power and great glory for the remission of sins and for the justification of many and also for the Condemnation of the wicked who know not God Now that which is to be known of God is manifest within every man and womans heart the word is nigh in the heart and in the mouth look not abroad for it is not without you it is in you make no delay come to a search the pearl of great price lies hid in you you must dig deep to find it you must sell your own wayes your own wisdom your own will worships must you part withall your worldly delights must be thrown aside if everyon come to find the pearl which lies hid in you or to know the true wisdom which God giveth the whole heart must be swept and thorowly searcht if ever the groat which is lost be found The Widow lost the piece of silver in her own house and with a candle she searched till she had found it mark the Widow searcht with the light in her own house for her lost silver she did not search in the dark nor out of her own house but she searcht with a candle in her own house till her lost was found All to the light come every one in your own particulars who are out of the truth of God who are yet in your sins and in your iniquities come forth to the true tryal bring your deeds to the light for the same Lord Jesus who enlightneth every one that cometh into the world is the true way which leads to the Kingdom of God Now all you who are seeking the way of the Lord out of the light you are out of the way you are in darkness and the true way of life there you will never come to find the way which leads to Gods Kingdom is but one and that is a streight narrow way so that none but the children of the light are able to pass that way the hypocrites can never walk in the streight narrow way such as are out of the light knows not the power of God to guide them but they are in the many wayes wherein is confusion and such are talking and sound worshipping of an unknown God who are out of the light life and power of God such know not the true teachings of God for they have not heard his voice at any time nor seen his shape and how can such know the teachings of the Lord who are in darkness and out of the life and power of God who know not his voice neither have seen his shape but walk in the imaginations of their own hearts such are found in the broad way which leads to destruction but the Children of the light and of the day the sheep of the true shepheard of Israel they know his voice they know him and follow him and strangers they know and cannot follow and to them he gives eternal life and such can never be pluckt out of his Fathers hand and such comes to know the true teachings of the Lord God who knows his voice and are led and guided by it but all you who are found scoffing at the light O you are found fighting against the Lord you would go in another way into the true sheep-fold then by the Door but such are thieves which would murther the sheep such cannot enter into the true sheepfold of rest where the whole flock of God finds pasture And now all you who are yet in your sins iniquities who know not the power of God to guide you I ask you where there is not such a thing in you all when you are upon your beds or alone separated from company when you are cool and calm I say at such a time is there not such a thing in you which brings your sins to remembrance and spreads them in order before you Yea the sins of your youth it brings to remembrance and this shews you the danger of sin many times before ever you have committed them and this often strives with you to preserve you from sinning against the Lord and from doing that which is evil but I say to you as I have already said where this true witnesse is not obeyed by such it is crucified and put to open shame therefore I say to you again in the fear of the living God deal faithfully plainly with your selves you who have any honest desires to know the true way of the Lord bring your deeds to the light try your wayes there give not sleep to your eyes nor slumber to your eye-lids till you know how the condition stands with you if you are in your sins the light will discover it to you as you in faithfulness to the Lord keep whilest you are in your sins this will speak trouble to you For there is no peace to the wicked saith my God and if you live in your sins then sin lies at the door and your consciences will condemn you and if sin lies at the door how then dares any of you to pray or sing or sacrifice your will-worships to the Lord Doth he regard the many prayers of the wicked Are they not abomination to him Is it not required That all those which nameth the Name of the Lord Jesus must depart from iniquity Or can the dead praise the living God I mean such as are dead in their sins whiles they are alive O deceive not yourselves God will not be mocked such as you sow such shall you reap if you sow to the flesh you shall reap Condemnation Wo and Misery the Lord hath no pleasure in the prayers or praises of the wicked the Lord is wearied of such services or such sacrifices they have an ill savour in them To Obedience all come for Obedience is better then sacrifice it is truth in the inward parts which the Lord our God requires And I say again to you who hath any honest desires after the Lord be not wilfully blinded come out of your sins live no longer in them for the wages of sin is death O come to him that makes an end of sin and destroyes the Devils works in man the Fountain is open for sin and for uncleannesse it hath this virtue in it it maketh clean the heart and conscience of the Children of men it purgeth from dead works it doth not purge people from some of their sins and leave the rest behind but the blood of Jesus clenseth from all sins although many of you say and your Teachers tell you and Teach you that you can never be freed
