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
