Oh what fear and trembling is there seised upon the spirits of all the Israel of God who is able to behold his cloudy presence Zeph. 3. 16. When I heard my belly trembled my lips quivered at the voyce rottennesse entered into my bones I trembled in my self I that I might rest in the day of trouble when he cometh up unto the people he will invade them with his troops The Lord in this our day is invading all lands and his coming is with clouds chuse whether ye will believe it or no and this his cloudy power hath and will all fall upon powers let them be powers Kingly or powers Parliamentary or power by Sword ye must all fall but the power of the sword shal be the last that shal be destroyed I mean the last visible power this cloudy power of the Lord is falne upon all your Idols temporall and spirituall and high time it is for all lands are full of Idols and every man boweth to them Esay 2. 8. 9. The lofty look of man shall be humbled and the Lord alone shall be exalted and ye shall cast away your Idols of silver and gold and hide your selves if you could tell where for fear of the Lord and for the glory of his Majesty This day is the day of the Lord and yet alas ye are all so blinde that ye look for peace and what have you for to do with peace are not ye all of the earth have ye not all a wicked earthly minde and an evil idolatrous heart and an earthly god called the god of this world which god of this world hath blinded your eyes that ye cannot tell what the Lord is doing ye look for peace and that is taken from the earth Rev. 6. 4. And there went out another horse that was red and power was given to him that sate thereon to take peace from the earth and that they should kill one another and there was given unto him a great sword England what saist thou to this and now therefore behold trouble and trouble is most fittest for you all O world thou hast been a troubler of the Lords heritage and O Israel thou hast been a troubler of thy Father and that made him return to his own place thou O world hast been a wonder unto death the fathers beloved in stead of pleading their cause and now the Lord is come to plead the cause of his heritage himself and for thee O Israel thy life hath been so wicked and so grieving to the Spirit of God so that thy long continuance in this thy spirit-grieving way hath wounded thy King to death in thee and the life which thou now livest is a dead life wounded I say thou hast thy dear Lord Zach. 13. 6. What are these wounds in thy hand these are the wounds which were given me in the house of my friend Zach. 12. 10. The world hath wounded Christ and his members have wounded him and behold now the Lord is risen and come down for to wound and never heal and yet for to wound and to heal that is for to pull down and to build to pull down and to destroy all both Kings Priests People and thee O Israel and to take away from us that which we are very loath for to lose but lose it we must being got into the cloudy day of God and if Noah Daniel and Iob were in these our dayes they should save but their own souls Ezek. 14. 17. and 21. vers Behold the Lord is come do not ye hear his sound yet how long shall the Trumpet blow O sleepers ere ye will awake the Lord is come down and walks up and down the earth and not a man heareth him or seeth him this is a mystery ye are certainly asleep O souls Kings Priests People yea and Israel too and that lulled asleep by the Devill into a heart-sleep and when the heart is once asleep the cloudy appearing of Jesus Christ cannot awaken it and a heart-sleep is within one step of the sleep of eternall death and if ye lie a little longer O all ye people of the world Lord have mercy upon you may be written upon all your doors for my King will pass by and enter into his Fathers kingdom with all his Princes and then for to awake will be too late what not yet cannot ye behold my King nor see him why you shall for the clouds shall be taken away and therefore the words run with every eye shall see him And every eye shall see him The second appearing of my King will be a spirituall appearing and so a spirituall destruction shall attend this spirituall appearing that is a destruction attended with much light therefore the word Every eye is brought in when this cloudy appearing of Jesus Christ is finished then comes this spiritual appearing of the Lord for to destroy that the cloudy appearing of my King could not do which spirituall appearing will cause all flesh for to tremble doubly and out of trembling fear and out of fear flie to the mountains hills and great rocks for to hide themselves from the presence of the Lord Rev. 6. 16 17. But let me tell you there will not be a mountain nor a hill left in all the world to hide thee from the presence of the Lord for that is the reason why the Lord comes first with clouds and darkness to remove every mountain and hill and every hiding place that you shall have no where to go for shelter for the Lord will make bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the Nations Isa 52. 10. Oh what an exceeding light and glorious appearing of Jesus Christ will there be ere long for all eyes shall see and light shall burn and God will search all the world and all hearts too and cause them for to see and know what they are Isa 9. 5. Every battle of the Warrier is with a confused noise and garments rouled in blood This shall be with burning and fury of fire And Zeph. 1. 12. at that time I will search Jerusalem with candles and punish the men that are setled upon their lees and say in their heart the Lord will not do good neither will he do evill but you shall know ere long what the Lord will do when he cometh for to give you eyes to see withall that you never saw there are divers eyes the eyes of the body the eye of Reason the eye of Faith and the eye of the Understanding for the eye of the body you know it is a dim-sighted thing and cannot behold the Sun it is good for nothing but for to give light unto the body but this eye here spoken of by
mouth thou shalt be judged either for salvation or damnation and therefore Christ saith The words that I have spoken and you have rejected shall judge you at the last day John 12. 48. You are got into the last dayes yea unto the last dayes of the last dayes that is into the half time Daniel spake of and that half time is almost out too Oh world and therefore a spirituall judgment is near to be revealed to us all And the words that Christ hath spoken shall judge us all that is God will open the eye of the understanding of all by his spirituall light by the which light you shall know and see what you did reject and what you have done in rejecting and also what Christ said and how you all have answered him again and also how you have lived and you shall need no other Judge then the light of God which shall shine upon your understanding and consciences for that shall give you light into all your wayes in the which ye have walked and this your enlightned understanding and convinced consciences shall condemne you all that is all flesh There is a mysterie John 8. 9. And they that heard it being convinced in their consciences went out one by one their consciences bearing witness again Romans 2. 15. Their consciences also bearing witness and their thoughts the meane while either accusing or excusing and a convinced conscience either of good or bad lyeth in the understanding being enlightned your understanding and consciences oh Saints and worldlings is all the book that God needs to use in the day of his spirituall judging of you and behold he is coming to Judgment and every eye shall see by this light of God every one shall be saved that have part in the first resurrection and by the same light every one shall be destroyed that have not part in him so that this light of God will bring salvation and destruction both at one time unto the two hoasts that stand at the right and left hand of God Isa 33. 4 5. The sinners in Sion are afraid fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites and who among us shall dwell with devouring fire reade one of the next verses and it tels you who shall and who shall not the Lord is come and coming still for to destroy and yet to save and that 's the reason why all flesh doth so fear Ezek. 39. 21. I will set my glory among the heathen and all the heathen shall see my Judgments that I have executed and my hand that I have laid upon them Isa 66. 14. The hand of the Lord shall be known towards his servants and his judgments towards his enemies ye shall not only have judgment but see the judgment of the Lord upon you yea eat your own flesh and drink your own blood and the Lord will come for to open your eyes for to see it And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together Isa 40. 5. And again that they may see know and understand together that the hand of the Lord hath done this you shall see the Lord oh ye nations ere long in his Saints with great power for to consume thee oh world and all that is in it that will be the next dispensation of God after the cloudy Sion stand up now and rejoyce for thou hast almost received double for all thy sins Isaiah 40. 2. Therefore comfort thy self in thy God for my King is very near bringing double joy double peace double rest and double glory with a double spirituall power Isaiah 61. 7. And all shall be thine and therefore gather to thee And the reason is because the Lord will glorifie the house of his glory and all shall call thee the City of the Lord the Sion of the holy one of Israel for the Lord will give thee such a spirituall power that by that power thou shalt consume all the wicked in thee so that no oppressor shall passe through thee any more Zach. 9. 8. And I will encamp about my house because of the Army and because of him that passeth by and because of him that returneth and no oppressor shall pass through thee any more for now have I seen with my eyes this is a mystery the light of God is a consuming and a destroying light Isaiah 11. 4. Hear oh world your fall is begun for your Prince that is your leader is wounded by the light of God and so wounded that he bleeds all the way he goes and so he will untill he hath bled himself to death for the wound that is given him is an uncurable wound for it is given him by a mighty Prince called the Lion of the Tribe of Judah Sions King and your terrible Judge and from this arises all your fear and you know it not Oh who shall stand before this great Judge when he cometh out of Clouds into light to judge with light and glory why this the Lord is coming near withall and the day of the Lords light will be the day of the Lords dividing Joel 3. 14. Or the day of the Lords great separating not only a dividing or separating the powers of evill men far from you oh Saints or you from them but a dividing or separating two ancient warriers flesh and Spirit so that you shall never learn war more Why oh soul thou shalt never learn war more for the Lord who is thy King will conquer all thy inside enemies as well as thy outside enemies and there shall be a great valley between ye both and that is the reason why he comes with his glorious light for to destroy all and then for to make known all to you Israel thou hast been a long time under a vaile the which vaile so covered thy fathers glory that ye could not see nor yet discern him but now ye shall very suddenly for it is neer taking away Isaiah 25. 7. And he will destroy in this Mountain the face of the covering cast over all people and the vaile that is spread over all Nations A spirituall light brings a spirituall discerning along with it Malachi 3. 18. Then shall ye return and discern and Isaiah 14. 16.

John is a spirituall eye or ye may call it the eye of the Lord gone forth from the Lord to the works of his hands to behold their great Workman the Lord of hosts for nothing can behold the Lord but that which comes from the Lord I am apt to think that the eye which the Lord will open to all flesh in the day of his glorious light appearing will be the eye of the Understanding and my reason is this because that Paul saith that by that eye when once opened they shall know what is the hope of their calling what is the riches of his glory of his inheritance in his Saints Ephes 1. 18. Isa 41. 20. That we may see know and understand together and then shall they see eye to eye when the Lord shall bring again Sion and then shall we behold him as he is Hear Israel and ye gentile world too for ye are both brought in hear Israel the first sight that thou shalt have of thy King will be a sad sight for thy wounded Saviour will be represented unto thee which thou hast wounded pierced and grieved all thy days but the time now of thy grieving him is almost up and he is coming out of cloudy dispensations for to cause thee by his light to see what thou art and what thou hast done and what a condition thou art in and when he hath carried thee hither and thither up and down here and there and shewed thee all thy abominations and all thy idols and imaginary religious Exercises as he did to Ezekiel in Jerusalem and in the Temple there Ezek. 8. 5 6 9 10 11. and so to the end of the Chapter that is a Gospel type we may read there what our condition is for thou art the Temple of God and this Temple of the Lord is defiled with all maner of unclean things O thou Temple of the Lord there is great abomination in thee spiritual abomination mysterious abominations and there dwells in thee thou canst not tell what for every thing that bears not the image of the Lord is sin upon thee and thou art defiled with all maner of unclean things with an unclean heart an unclean minde an unclean conversation O how death is written upon all thy labors and ways rathen then life Behold therefore the Lord is come down for to open an eye to thee wherewith thou shalt see all that thou hast done to be wicked fleshly and nought The first sight will be a sorrowful sight but after sorrow comes joy Israel the Lord will first open thy eye because judgment shall begin first with thee yea this spiritual judgment The Lord will first search thee with candles and after thee then thy enemies thou shalt see first because thou shalt rise first nay dost not thou begin to see for methinks the clouds begin to break if not what 's the reason of so much strange noyses among the Sion of God was there ever heard or seen the like that is in this our age what distress what blasphemies what cursings These days are the last days these days are the blaspheming days I tremble to think how all the world is and will be filled with blasphemy Revel 13. 5. 7. 3. 16. 9 11 21.
