A86656	A word from the north, sounded into the south, heard, and received of many. Jesus Christ the Son of God, which is the true light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world; and all that receive this light, and believe in this light, and are obedient to this light, they receive power and do become the sons of God. And as I have heard, so I have and do see in the true light, and am bold to give forth my testimonie that it is true, and there is no other way to salvation but by it. And therefore do I warn all people, and thee, O Kent, with the citie of Canterbury, and town of Maidstone, and all thy magistrates in you all, betimes to consider and take heed that none of you be anie longer enemies to it and its ministers, lest you be found fighters against God.

who said to Christ we have eat and drunk in thy presence and preached of thee in the Streets and in thy Name done great things which went far yet said Christ to them Depart ye workers of Iniquity I never knew you Matt. 7.22.23 And here you are all that hate the light and denyes the teaching of it and hates the Messengers and Messengers of it who are sent to you of the Lord to bear vvitness of the true Light vvhich enlightneth every man that cometh into the vvorld to them many of you say Depart out of our Coasts our Cities and Towns we desire not the knowledge of this vvay and some of them you stock whip and imprison by the which you are made manifest of what generation you are And this I declare from the Lord unto you all whatever you be high or low rich or poor vvho are Enemies in your minds to the light of Christ and the vvitnesses of it and refuse by it to be ordered in all your whole lives and conversations to the glory of our God There vvil a day come upon you in the which he shall say Depart depart from me and mine ye vvorkers of Iniquity I knovv you not and then a sad lamentation of hovvling and bitterness wil be upon you and vvo and misery shall be your portion for ever Therefore novv vvhile you have time prize it now is the day of your visitation and many large declarations hath been of late sent forth amongst you in this Nation by which you shall be left without excuse for his sound is gone forth throughout the earth have ye not all heard and have not many been convinced by the Light and that your Teacher is nigh you and the vvitness for God is within you and by it you have been often judged and condemned for your evil deeds and hard speeches done and spoken maliciously against the innocent servants of the Lord But how few among you have received and believed the vvitnesses for God and have felt the strong Arm of the Lord in power to pluck you as brands out of the Fire Are ye not yet for the greatest part both Priests Professors people under all your names and titles whatever called opposing and resisting the spirit of the living God when it moves in you and strives with you or speaks in any sent of the Lord unto you for the eternal good of your poor souls which is of more vvorth then all the vvorld even as your fathers have done so do ye and therein have declared your selves enemies to God and his Ministers and judged your selves unworthy of eternal life Oh Nation oh people repent repent betimes and break off from the evil of all your vvayes and doings that have been acted against the Lord his vvitness within you and his servants sent amongst you and if you will return return indeed to the Lord and forsake all thy abominations by which the seed of God hath long been oppressed and groans and cryes for deliverance from under Pharoahs cruel bondage the cryes of the which seed the Lord hath heard and hath brought forth at this day in thousands of his tender Lambs who are redeemed from off the earth to praise and glorifie his holy Name for evermore who stand living Witnesses for the living God of power this day in this and many other Nations who have not loved their lives but given them to death for the testimony of Jesus who hath purchased them to be to himself a peculiar people out of Kindreds Tongues and Nations And many more hath our God with his eternal Love looked upon and his living pure light shined into who stand single in their souls and in the light of Christ do wait for the pure living manifestation of the whole counsel and revelation of the will of God in every thing what he vvil have them to do and suffer for his Names sake who through Grace received do witness and in the light of Christ do see and testifie against the vvorld its vvickedness its vvayes vvords vvorships vvorks customs fashions and ungodly conversations and abominable uncleannesses thereof and dare not have any fellowship with the unfruitful vvorks or vvorkers of darkness but as moved of the Lord are made to reprove them plainly Praises praises be to our God for evermore And now all people in love to your souls which is more vvorth then all the vvorld do I speak and do you warn and beseech to come off and forsake all your false Teachers and Hirelings who vvalk not in nor by the Light of Christ but are in Cains way and Korahs vvay and Balaams vvay who deny to be ordered and guided by the Light of Christ in their own particular and are Enemies to those that vvalk in it that vvil not receive it themselves nor enter the Kingdom of Heaven themselves nor suffer others to enter I say once more Come off come away from off all those hard Mountains of leanness where no pure Waters are and come down to the true teacher Christ the Light which is nigh you all in you all which if you hear obey vvil lead you into the good Land the fruitful Land where fresh Springs are alwaies open where no want or barrenness is it is to him I exhort you all to come which will tell you truly all that ever you have done that ever you have been and let you see your secret sins and convince you of them and bring you to condemnation for them and purifie and cleanse you from them and to all you that abide in him and look for him he shall appear the second time without sin unto salvation But for all you who will not own him here before men he shall you deny before his Father which is in Heaven And so while you have time prise it before that hour come upon you in which time shall be no more and then repentance shall be hid from your eyes and the day of your visitation be over-past Now is your day prise it and receive the counsel of your friend called T. H. Oh County Oh People hear counsel in time O Kent Kent hear the Word of the Lord unto thee Thou art full thou art full thou art increased in Goods thou art waxed wanton before me saith the Lord thou hast kicked with the heel thou hast given me the back but the face thou hast turned away thy iniquities are many the sins of Sod●m are found in thee pride idleness and fulness of bread but the cry of the needy in thee is not heard thou hast broken the Covenants and solemn Promises made unto me in the day of thy calamity and sore troubles when the Sword was within thy borders and Wars within thy Gates Thou wast less indeed in the fire in the fornace then many other Shires and Counties not so much blood was shed in thee not so much plunder and burnings done in thee but thou hast forgotten the hand by which thou wast smitten and
