A77973 A vvarning from the Lord to the inhabitants of Underbarrovv, and so to all the inhabitants in England, where it shall meet with them, who holds up the false teachers, and false worship, and who beats, stone, stock, and persecute, and hail out of their assemblies, those who are sent by the Lord, to speak his word freely; with an exhortation, that they hast to meet the Lord by true repentance, by putting off the works of darkness, lest the Lord cut them assunder, by his sword, which is already drawn and put into the hand of his servants. Also, a word to my brethren, and companions in tribulation in the kingdome and patience of Jesus Christ, who is by the world scornfully called Quakers. With the manner of my passage through the dark world, (wherein the simple ones may see the deceits of the man of sin in his actings like the true spirit) to warn all to follow the true light within, which leads unto God, & to beware of the voice, lo here & lo there, by one who is a labourer in the vineyard, who is not known to the world; (though named of the world) Edvvard Burrough. Burrough, Edward, 1634-1662. 1654 (1654) Wing B6057; Thomason E733_5; ESTC R206899 28,263 40

as all these thy Teachers do who are called of men Masters as they were and have the chiefest place in the Assemblies as they had and Praied standing as these thy professed Ministers do Now the same Light which ever was the Saints did which is Jesus Christ is now born and made manifest which is witnessed among the saints in which Light I see all thy Teachers O England to be drunk with the Wine of her that hath deceived the nations who sits upon a scarlet coloured Beast and is arrayed in purple and scarlet colour and decked with gold and precious stones and hath the golden cup in her hand full of abominations whose name is writen in her forehead Mystery Babylon the great the Mother of Harlots and abomination of the Earth And in this Light do I declare against them all which are in the generation of the false Prophets of Israel which seeks for their gain from their Quarter and which steals the word from their neighbor and have taken the words of the Prophets of Christ and of his Apostles and selleth the divination of their own brain upon the Scriptures which the holie men speak forth freelie to the poor blind people and teacheth for the fleece and if ye stop not into their mouths they prepare War against you and which are called of men Master which Christ forbids Against all these freelie as from the Lord I do Declare to be no Ministers of Jesus Christ but are Seducers and blind Guides and are Antichrists and leads the poor blind people in the waies of death and destruction for they are no Ministers of Christ that abides not in the Doctrine of Christ these have run but hath not been sent by God and therefore is not your Souls profited by them but are in the dark heathenish nature as by your fruits is made manifest leaning in the imaginations and not in the counsel of the Lord and in lying swearing drunkenness covetousness and oppression and according to the course of this world these iniquities are ruling among People Priests and Rulers in this Nation from the least of them even to the greatest everie one is given to covetousness from the Prophet even to the Priest everie one deals falselie All your Hirelings and greedie dumb Dogs I do denie and all who are of God denies all such and are taught of God in the waies of God which ever the world derided All thy Teachers O England is denied of them who are taught of God and whose Teacher is the anointing needs not anie man to teach them And by thy Teachers who are in the way of the Pharisees art thou blindlie led in the waies of darkness and ignorance and all thy carnal worship which is in everie part of thee upheld which is to Read Sing and Preach upon the Saints Conditions which were witnesses of God All this I do denie and freelie declare against as from the mouth of the Lord to be no worship of God but imagination and an imitation of the Worship of God And the living eternal God of Heaven and Earth is but mocked by you in your imagined worship for your reading of anothers condition and singing of that which you live not in and preaching that which is gathered from without by imagination and conceiving upon that which the Prophet Prophesied or which Christ spoke who was and is the substance and which the Apostles witnesses this is carnal and heathenish and was never commanded by the Lord nor is no worship of the true God and against this worship I do from the Lord declare as in the eternal Light of God seeing it to be deceitful and abomination to the Lord being I am Redeemed up to God by his eternal Spirit and to worship in Spirit and in Truth and am not limited to a day place or time neither at Jerusalem nor in this Mount c. and am freed and redeemed out of this fallen mans invention and tradition which is but Cains sacrifice which God doth not accept but is abomination in his sight praised be the Lord for evermore And O England I do declare against all these thy Teachers and against all this thy Worship as from the mouth of the Lord as moved of the Lord to speak this word unto thee Thou hast spent thy money this manie Generations for that which is not bread and thy labor for that which doth not satisfie thee all thy imagined formal Worships and carnal Traditions and Ordinances of man is the Lord risen in his servant to declare against And the same Light which ever made manifest deceitful Worships and the deceitful Hirelings and them that cried Peace peace to the people when the Lord spake no peace is now risen and speaketh in thy ears O Nation the same everlasting Light which the true Prophets lived in who cried against them that sought for their gain from their Quarter and that cried against the horrible filthie thing which is upheld in thee O England this same Light is made manifest in the despised People called Quakers in this North part of the Nation O People your Teachers hath beguiled you and have taught for the fleece and fed themselves with the fat but your souls are hungred by them for they are in the Generation of them that said and did not they love the wages of unrighteousnes and follows the Error of Balaam for reward and have devoured souls for dishonest gain but the onlie true God is arising to beat the mountains to dust and to cleave the rocks asunder In thee O Land will the Lord make manifest his power and will stretch forth his arm for the deliverance of his Chosen and for the redemption of his two witnesses which hath laid slain in the great City in this Land which they that dwell upon the earth have rejoiced over and made merrie and triumphed in their slaughter the Lord is arising to require his flock at the hands of the Idols shepheard O ye Idol dumb Shepheards the Lord will be avenged upon you for you have scattered the sheep of his pasture and have fed your selves with them the Lord of Hosts is grieved with you and have shaken his hands at your dishonest gain and ye shall no longer wear Garments to deceive ye have long deceived the simple by your lies and by your lightness but now you are discovered and made manifest in the eternal Light of God and the mysterie of Witchcraft is not hid now from the Saints Therefore O England hear the Word of the Lord Thy Prophets are light and treacherous persons thy Judges Judges for reward and thy Priests preach for hire and thy Officers imprisons the just and thy Rulers are evening wolves which seeks for the prey and the Lord of Heaven and Earth is grieved with these things Therefore O Land tremble at the presence of the Lord God of Jacob for Esau shall become a place for Dragons and shall be disinhabited in the day of mourning and lamentation is
house and chused rather to suffer affliction among the poor despised people than to have enjoied the pleasures of sin but great shall be your reward ye Contemned ones glorie and honor and everlasting happiness is prepared for you if you stand faithful to the end the Lord is with you as a mightie terrible one and therefore shall all your persecuters be ashamed and confounded the sound of a trumpet

the Lord for you have the word of the Lord and you are made partakers of the everlasting wisdom and are the beloved of God for his eternal Son is born and brought forth among you and therefore doth the wise men and chief Priests consult to take his life but wo unto you persecuters for they are the seed of evil doers and better it were that a milstone were hanged about their necks and they cast
