Gods Proclamation TO THE INHABITANTS AND PEOPLE OF ENGLAND Published by one of the Lords Servants called forth out of darknesse to be a Witness unto the Everlasting Light of the Son of GOD. According to the Word of the Lord which came unto him on the fifth day of the ninth moneth 1659. Known by the name of JOHN ANDERDON The Lord hath spoken that the Rod of the wicked shall not alwayes be on the back of the Righteous LONDON Printed for Giles Calvert at the Black spread Eagle at the West end of Pauls 1659. REpent Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and the patience and long suffering of God is almost at an end The Kingdoms of this World shall become the Kingdoms of the Lord and of his Christ who must Reign until all his enemies are subdued and the greatness of the Dominions under the whole heavens shall be given into the hands of the saints of the most High God such as faithfully follow the Lamb in the Regeneration in his righteous war against the beast and false Prophet within and without which have combined together to make war against the Lamb and his followers have given their power to the Prince of this world the Dragon cast out of Heaven the Devil that old serpent that hath deceived the Nations whose followers ye are that rebel against the light and love darkenss rather than light because your deeds are evil having chosen to follow your own hearts lusts and vain and wicked imaginations which is out of the fear and councel of the Lord God of light and life How long how long will ye turn the truth of God into a lye and the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like unto corruptible man whose breath is in his nostrils How long will men forsake the Lord the Fountain of living waters and draw waters out of broken Cisterns full of pollutions and defilements How long will ye follow after vanities and forsake your own mercies How long will ye seek the living amongst the dead How long will ye follow the builders of Babel whose Language is confounded with many Tongues and set at nought Christ Jesus the chief corner stone whose building is in spirit and truth a City whose maker and bulider is God which is at unity within it self How long will ye follow after lyes and heap up to your selves teachers after your own corrupt hearts lusts that justifie the Wicked and condemn the Just that call good evil and evil good that put Light for Darkness and Darkness for Light and refuse to be taught and led by the spirit of truth which will lead you out of your own inventions out of the impure into the pure way and worship of God which is in spirit and in truth How long will ye cry up a Kingdom without in words and neglect to seek to know Gods Kingdom within in power That in the heart where the root of the Tree is that bringeth forth evil fruit the Axe may be laid That by the everlasting light of the son of God ye may come to see what is good and what is evil in your selves to a clear understanding of the difference between the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil and the Fruit of the Tree of Life unto which an enterance is no way to be had but under the flaming sword of Gods wrath and anger against that which hath joyned to the seed of the Serpent in the transgression of man from the righteous Law of God That through the Law ye may become dead to the Law that through the death of all that is contrary to God ye may come to know and witness life in your selves redemption by the blood of Jesus which saveth from all sin that ye may be no longer false witnesses to tell of things that ye have not seen but that ye may all come to know the work of God wrought in your selves that ye may no longer glory and boast in another mans line but that through the sensible operation of the word of life in your selves ye may all become Preachers of righteousness in your Generations according to your measures of what you have seen tasted and handled of Gods good word of Grace That the new birth which is after the spirit and sensibly and certainly to be known and felt in the creature through many sore pangs and hard travel may be brought forth not a thing in notion but in truth the onely way to life without which none can enter into Gods Kingdom and if ye are not witnesses of this in your selves all the experiences and records thereof by others will be little available to you but to stand as a witness against you Verily Eternal life is of highest concernment therefore search and seek diligently until ye find it And certainly ye can have no other true hopes thereof then ye witness a death unto sin in your selves and a Resurrection unto life by the spirit of Christ you must know your selves Gods workmanship in Christ Jesus and know the sore travel of soul until ye be formed again into the likeness of Gods image in him that ye may witness Christ in you the hope of glory all other hopes are but the hope of the hypocrites which shall perish As ye have all been in the degeneration from God in the actual transgression joyned to the seed of the serpent that drew man into the fall so ye must all actually and really know the work of regeneration in your selves by the eternal power of Gods spirit working out and destroying the works of the Devil in the creature by joyning him again unto the Seed of God in whom redemption and deliverance is In the manifestation of the measure of Gods good spirit given to every man to profit withal the work is to be known and waited in That so in man where Satans seat and dominion hath been which hath led the creature captive into sin and transgression that there also Gods Kingdom and Dominion in Christ Jesus the power of God may be witnessed truth in the inward parts working out and destroying all that 's contrary to the pure nature of Gods seed Christ That so by the blood of Christ the righteousness of God the creature may be cleansed from all filthiness of flesh and spirit and redeemed up to God again by the word of reconciliation that so that which hath led the creature captive to sin may now be led into captivity that so as sin by mans disobedience hath reigned unto death so by the resurrection of the just Christ in us righteousness may reign unto life everlasting that as ye have yeelded your members to be the weapons of unrighteousness unto sin so now ye may yeeld your selves servants of righteousness unto holiness Truly so not in word but in life and power is Gods Kingdome to be known and manifested in you That as ye have been under Satans power in the
