cloud and thick darknesse He comes as a VVarriour to the battell of that great day Revel. 16. v. 14 15. This comming from the North is that houre of temptation upon the Whole Earth which is threatned in the time of the Sixth Church Rev. 3. 10. but fals out in the times of the Seventh Church the fifth and Sixth vials Wo to you Ye Glorious Hypocrites who say you want nothing but indeed are Poor who wear your Garments loosly about you My Heart aketh for you The LORD commeth upon you as a Thief in the Nigh unawares unseen to steal your Party-Coloured coverings from you and dip them in Blood to uncover your Nakednesse and lay open your shame to every Eye Alas for you Ye daughters of Hierusalem You who live under the Sabbath of a Legall Dispensation you who are big with child of the Spirituall Seed but have not yet brought forth That Spirit which is born of the Spirit You who have that Spirituall Seed brought forth in you but still feed it as a Babe with the Milk of carnall Administrations you with whom it is winter whose Spiritual sappe is sunk down into its Root while you sleep My bowels earn and sound within mefor you Ye daughters of Hierusalem How hard will your flight be from before the whirlwind from the NORTH how great will your Amazement be when your Eyes shall behold the Glory of the LORD to depart from off the Temple of Outward Administations on which it hath long stood nay to destroy both this Temple and this Hierusalem As for you whether will you go for comfort when the fiery Wheels of my Saviours Chariot shal be brought over all your fleshly Excellencies and Enjoyments But be of Good cheer These throws this dissolution of the earthly mother shall bring forth a heavenly man-child into the World in which she shall live again and remember her Sorrow no more This comming of your GOD from the NORTH is as Iosephs Rule in the years of Famine as Davids Raign in Bloud It ushers in Benjamin's Glorious Rest Solomons Temple It prepares the way for the Kings of the East 2. I should now speak of the comming from the East But the time is not yet If Master Brightman do not erre in placing Laodicea on this Land I hope I have not done much amisse in fixing on these times that Church the fifth and sixth viall the sitting of the Iudgement in Daniel the comming from the North in Ezekiel in my Text For all these Scriptures seem to me to be manifestly Paralel and Contemporary Blessed are we who have lived to see this Comming of the Glory of God from the NORTH But blessed and happy are they who shall live then when this King of Kings with his Race of Kings shall come from the way of the East to go into the House of his Rest. In the mean time this is thy comfort O thou Sister-Spouse of the Lamb He comes Behold he comes to thee in this stormy night not as a Thief but a Guest a Bridegroom Behold he stands at thy door and knocks by all these loud noises Open the door let him in he will set up his chariot in thine heart he will come into thy spirit he will sup with thee feast with thee upon this glory and Iye with thee all this night Object Perhaps some will say changes and expectations were as great in Luthers time as now Yet what hath the issue of all those things been but desolation Answ. 1. What hath the issue of all those things been Desolations on the Earth but discoveries increases of light upon the Saints even unto this day Luther had this honour to live to see his Doctrine received publickly professed established by many populous Countreys and Cities many great Provinces and Princes in Peace for many years There was peace all his dayes Immediately after his death the sa●…e or the very next year that fire of War brake forth which hath never been well quencht since that time Answ. 2. Noah was a Preacher of Righteousnesse He prophesied of the Flood 120 years before it came The like figure unto this doth Luther seem●… to be He was the Preacher of Iustification only by faith by Christ by the Righteousnesse of God in Christ He prophesied of a deludge of fire while he often witnessed to the World that Antichrist was to be destroyed by the brightnesse of Christs coming This was 1520 or 30 after Christ Compute from thence 120 years the summe will amount to 1640 or 50 which falls upon the present season The Flood came accordingly in the year from the Creation 1656. How near is that year 1656 from Christ Of what Eclipses what dreadfull signes in heaven above in earth below do we hear to come to passe in the years immediately preceding this Tremble O ye Inhabitants of the Earth a flood of fire is coming upon all the World The windows of heaven are already open and begin to rain down streams of fire The springs of the great deep are broken up and send forth their flames Ye meek Ones enter into the Ark which your Saviour and you have been long making ready in your spirits against this day when the flood should come What is this Ark Is it not the chariot of the Lord the appearance of the glory of God of your beloved Iesus in heavenly state within you Go in to this Ark the Lord shall shut you in till the storme be past Go up to this chariot sit quietly there by the side of your Saviour till that cloud break up and show you in glory But it is now time to conclude Is it so Is this then the Age Is this the Land in which our Lord Iesus ascends from the NORTH Doth he now call up the clouds and winds to minister to him Doth he now from hence begin as a Bridegroom to come forth from his Chamber as a Giant or Warriour refresht with wine to run his race unto the ends of the Earth Speak ye Virgins who are not falne asleep Is your Lord on his way Is this the noise Are these the fires flashes of his chariot-wheels You who have eyes exercised on spirituall sights who watch for the Morning tell us Have you seen your Beloved look forth like the morning a sweet light out of a black darknesse Faire as the Moon in his naturall Image the first Creation Pure as the Sun with the essentiall substantiall glory of his spiritual Image Terrible as an Army with Banners The horses and wheels of his chariot are his Army Angels Stars Elements n●…w made fighting for him in the newnesse of their courses Himself in his flaming person above the heads of these is the terrible Banner lifted up It is so The Lord is upon his white-horses of divine discoveries He rides on prosperously with his Sword girt upon his thigh Right Honourable Princes Prophets People remember now your dyivg Saviours charge Take heed of surfetting on the comforts or cares of this Life Watch and be sober As Elijah girt himself and run along with Ahabs chariot So gird up the loyns of your minde run along with the chariot of your King If through sloth or sleep you be cast behinde if the Bride-groom enter into his chamber and the door be shut upon him you will be left without in utter darknesse where is weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth But woe to those who resist the progresse of his outgoings The wheels of his chariot shall be brought over these the feet of his horses shall tread them in pieces and dogs devour that which is left of them as it was with Iesabel But you which have heard the Lord Iesus plainly saying to you When you were under the figtree of outward dispensations and expectations I saw you run to him call him Master follow him still you shall see greater things then these you shall see the heavens opened Angels descending and ascending upon the heavenly person of Christ discovered as a ladder joyning heaven and earth in which ladder every Rowel is a spiritual a living glory FINIS 1.
