forty dayes after his Resurrection and in their sight did ascend into Heaven with the same Body which was Crucified upon the Cross where he is set down at the right Hand of the Majesty on High and is become a glorious Mediator between GOD and Man being anointed of God to be an eternal King Priest and Prophet to the Saints whose peace he hath purchased by the Blood of his Cross and I believe that at the last and great Day the Lord Iesus when all his Elect are gathered in will rend the Heavens and come down to judge the World in Righteousness when all Nations shall be gathered before him even they that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake some to everlasting Life and some to shame and everlasting contempt and I believe that those which are alive at the coming of the Lord shall be caught up into the Clouds together with those that were asleep in Iesus to meet the Lord in the Air where they shal sit with Christ upon Thrones to judge all the Hypocrites and unbelievers to eternal damnation both of soul and body in Hell where the worm dyeth not and the fire never shall be out and the wicked being gone into everlasting punishment I believe that the Righteous shall enter into Life eternal where they shall for ever be singing of Praises and Hallelujahs to Him who loved them and washed them from their sins in his own Blood These are my principles and I trust the Lord will so fix me in them that I may never be tossed too and fro with any contrary winds of Doctrine as too many in these latter days are nay I am even at this time perswaded by the Lord that I shal not be l●d away by the errors of the wicked because the Lord hath not only rightly informed my judgment concerning these things but hath also given me good Hope through grace that he is my Father the Lord Iesus having dyed for my sins and risen again for my justification and this is that which brings comfort to my soul and makes me to rejoyce though not seeing yet believing even with joy unspeakable and full of glory so I doubt not but the Lord Iesus my dear Redeemer will so support me by his grace that whatsoever my condition hath been or shall be here in this little moment of time yet that I shall not fail of salvation through Christ in heaven for ever for in him only is my hope and I will make mention of his righteousness and of his only who is the Lord my righteousness and therefore to him be all the glory given now and for evermore Amen This confession of my Faith and my Experiences was written in a time of sweet peace my reasons why I writ them were these 1. Because formerly when I had enjoyed the sweet presence of God and been for the time filled with rejoicing yet when God had withdrawn the light of his countenance from me I presently fell to questioning all the dealings of God with me and so dishonoured God by my unbelief so that now being under the sense of love and being desirous for the time to come to glorifie God more in the great work of unbelieving I write down my Experiences hoping they may be sweet supports to me in a time of darkness 2. My desire to treasure up the Experiences which I have had of Gods goodness to me was ●●other reason why I write them knowing ●w apt I am to let slip out of my remem●●ance that which is good 3. I have been often called upon to see that ●y principles be right and to make sure my ●idences for heaven and therefore that I may ●●stifie my obedience to God and his Word ●nd that I might increase my joy in the Lord ●y believing more firmly what the Lord had ●one for my soul I set about the work of heart-●arching to see what I could find in me that ●rought me within the compass of everlasting ●●essedness and some things I found blessed be ●he Lord which I thought was worthy to be re●orded which was hss own work in me and for me and therefore I write them down and heartily desire that God may have the Glory of his own grace for I know that he only hath wrought all my works in me for of my self I am not able to think a good thought speak a good word or do a good action And I trust that the Lord will perfect that which concerns me and not forsake the work of his own hands that so I may be to the praise of the glory of his grace all the days of my life Amen FINIS
