people now come with singing and with rejoycing because I have opened their eies and have taken out their stony hearts and have given them hearts of flesh even such hearts as they shall no longer denie that Jesus their Saviour is come but shall confess that he is come and that they have crucified him and so shall see that I have caused them to be in such a condition as they are now in for it was my good pleasure that it should be so but now will I rise and will show my power for to redeem them from this Egyptian bondage they are now in even as I did appear for their fathers of old and did bring them from the land of Egypt by my mightie and strong hand by my servant Moses whom I did stir up for that purpose even so will I make my power seen in all nations by stiring my servants up and also by sending them a leader for to lead them as my sons of old had and as all Kings and great men fell that opposed them even so will I make all for to fall and perish and become as weak as water that so I may bring you into your own land again and all those that hinder you or rise in armes against you shall be drowned in my wrath and sore displeasure even as Pharoah of old was drowned in the red sea so I will set me glory and honour and will make you appear to be Kings and Conquerours through me that love you and so wil bring you into your one land with joy and gladness and there will make you for to ly down in peace and to be at rest when I will torment and trouble all nations that have fought against you and they shall weep and houl and cry out for sorrow of heart but I will make you my Chosen ones and also them whom I wil bring up with you and have called them by my name to come and go up to the height of Sion with everlasting songs singing and rejoycing with abundance of joy in that I have created Jerusalem a joy and her people a rejoycing for I will make a new Heaven and a new earth wherein righteousness shall dwell for I wil make desolation and wil destroy all things that are now at the present and so will make all things new new in respect that I have gathered you out of all countries and have once again brought you into your own land for to make you the joy and the praise of the whole earth and the place and land where I wil in glory delight to dwel and so wil make all your enemies come bowing and bending and submit unto that hath and wil stil bring you in the everlasting joy where all is joy and all shal be joy and peace so that they shal bring even your enemies their treasurs and riches and the fullness of the gentils shall be brought in rejoyce and sing and shout O ye daughters of Jerusalem for behold I will come and will take all sorrow from you and ye shall see evill no more and I will make all your enemies your foot-stool and all evil shal cease from amongst you and I will make the dayes of your mourning to end and so will make everlasting joy to shew it self and you shal sorrow no more behold I come even I that wil save you from all sorrow and from the cruelty of men and wil make bare my holy arm and all the nations shall see the salvation of God even all people shal see and know that I have redeemed you and saved you and have gathered you from among the heathen and have brought you into your own land there for to make you the praise of the whole earth and all the glory of nations shall be brought into it even into that City where nothing but righteousness shall dwell and all dogs and sorcerers and whosoever they be that have not right to the tree of life shal not enter into this City even into this new Jerusalem which shall be made the praise of the whole earth for this Jerusalem consisteth of all the sons and daughters of Sion who shall be brought out of all countries and out of all nations into this land which I have chosen for to make my self a glorious name and so to make my name a terror and a dread to all that come not into this City for without are none but forcerers and such as makes a ly as dogs and such filthy creatures for dogs are a most beastly creature and seem to be a creature good for little even here such as are to be left out are compared to dogs for all dogs are cruel and envious and are ready to destroy themselves by fighting one with another and also their condition is they alwayes are grumbling and snapping one at another as striving for mastery so are these people that are to be left out of this City a people who have given themselves over to rule and domineere over their fellow-creatures and would have all in subjection to them and they would be lords and so would have their fellow-creatures in bondage to them and keep them as servants and bond-men even for to work and labour for them when they themselves have all the joy and pleasure but now even upon such dogs that have risen from Cain and Nimrod the mighty hunter that have hunted and also have catch their fellow-creatures in their snare and so Esau-like would have all in subjection to them even upon such shall my hand fall very heavy as for to plague them and so to punish them that I may make them know that my time is now at hand for to give redemption to my creatures especially to my sons and daughters whom ye Esaus and great men have kept in bondage and slavery and so to make them a joy and rejoicing singing for joy and gladnes of heart where ye Esaus brood that have a long time raigned over them shall be trodden as straw under foot and be fit for nothing but to be left without even without my joy and love because of your sorceries because of your estrangness from me counting all your pleasurs and happines to be in things here below even in outward substance treasuring up gold and silver which hath bewitched you from the truth and would not let you hear that the best and cheifest commandement is for to sell and give to the poor but when this hath buzzed in your eares and your own conscience accusing you for it you have like the young man in the Gospel as you call it which fain would go to heaven and so have rest but loth to fulfil our Saviours command sell that which thou hast and give to the poor and so thou shalt have treasure in heaven as if my son Christ had said do not you think that by observing a little outward way of worship and so walking on in formes and making an outward profession of religion having a
I come in power I will make you do it against your will when I come in power for behold I come and will not tarry in the mean while do not you deceive your selves and think your selves too good for to give to the poor for I come and will make you houl houl ye rich men for the rust of your silver and gold will now rise up in judgement against you for I come to destroy all things besides my self and will suddenly take from man his gods and pictures of gold and silver and will make them for fear of me give them away for I come to take vengeance on those that have afflicted the poor houl ye therefore that have afflicted the poor and give up with speed before I take you and throw you into my wrath and into my sore displeasure remember ye rich men that hear the cries of the poor and come away make your hands free to give remember that these are the last dayes and that you must now use the world as if you used it not do you use the world as if you used it not think you that hord up bags of gold and silver and lay up quarters of grain when many poor souls are ready to starve for want of them but is it not to use the world as if you used it not for to have no more then the present necessity cals for and so to take no thought for the morrow therefore up give freely disperse abroad and let not the cries of the poor any longer be in mine ears but now follow the Apostles direction use the world as if you used it not for the fashion of this world goeth what is the fashion of this world but to strive who shall be greatest and richest who shall have the most power and who shall be most applauded and so have most praise of men 't is very true that this fashion hath been a long time but this old fashion must go out and theremust be a new fashion which fashion will be instead of striving after riches giving away of riches to them that have need of them and so to make themselves equal with the rest and not to lord it over their fellow-creatures but willingly do them all the good they can for whether they be tongues they shall cease or prophesies they shall fail but charity shall abide for ever here the most excellent or the most transcendent things which have bin or are for the present though little thought of must go and whatsoever hath been must now fly away for nothing must abide or continue but charity the striving after riches must cease and then there will not be so much oppression as is now the striving after honour shall cease and then there will be no killing of men for money striving after self must cease and then there will be no envie or malice as to fight one with the other striving after learning must cease for tongues shall in this manner as it is now gotten by humane industry though it may please God to indue his Saints and chosen vessels with tongues at his first appearing or making out himself to them as he did at the first appearing in flesh make out himself to his Apostles but Charity shall never cease for indeed when all the other fore-mentioned shall perish and come to nothing then shall this be fulfilled and not till then for so soon as all things that are now at the present passes away and all things become new then will charity take place and so will abide for ever I saw in a vision one give away all that he had and would not have any thing as his own and I heard a voice say that this man was come up to be his son and was a true convert and one that is come up in that dispensation wherein I will in time bring all saith the Lord of host Lord lo we have left all and followed thee we have left all houses and lands and silver and gold and whatsoever was near or dear unto us we have for thy sake sold and left all this was the saying of the Apostle who was a true convert but you that are rich think it your honour for to keep your riches and so to take delight in getting riches but you see that the Apostle left all and so must you if you will have that love of God and favour that the Apostle had I come saith I the Lord of host and will bring down all your pleasant things and will bring down all your glory honour and strength and will lay them down in the dust I will terrifie you and plague you and will make you know that I the Lord of host am a consuming fire and so will make you freely give up that which you call yours to your fellow creatures for I have made all nations of one blood and so will now at my bright appearing make all people equal and alike for matter of riches and so will take away the stumbling-block of private interests and so will make the oppressors and the opression for to cease and will make you know that I the Lord of host will do a new work on the earth that is you shall now know that I will have all men after this little while be in no want and so to this effect you that intend to be kept in my love and favour be not so stout-hearted as to keep back but freely bestow on them that have need of the outward creatures and I will come in power making the rich men houl and weep and throw abroad and give away their Idols of gold and silver and be glad to creep into the holes and clefts of the rock for to hide themselves for fear of me saith I the Lord of host I saw in a vision a tree and the boughs spread themselves abroad and was very great But at length I saw one come with a sword and lopped off the boughs and then cut off the tree in the middle and at length digged up the roots of the tree and so the tree fell away and was no more to be seen And I said Lord what meaneth this tree and my excellent Majesty the King of eternal glory even that Alpha and Omega who is the life and fullness of all by whom all lives and moves and have their being said on this manner as followeth by the tree is meant all powers great or small whether they be Popes or Emperors or Kings Princes Dukes or Parliaments he whom you saw hew off the boughes first represents I the Lord of host who will now cut off those superfluous branches as those that have made themselves rich by earthly powers and not only them but I will cut the tree in the middle even the very heart of all powers in sunder and so will proceed on for to cut down the very root and foundation of all earthly powers as is shown by the digging up the root of the tree
