A77950	A measure of the times: and a full & clear description of the signes of the times, and of the changing of the times; and of the reign of Antichrist, who hath long reigned, and of his down-fall, which is at hand; and of the kingdom of Christ which is now setting up in the earth. Shewing unto all people in all nations, what the state of things hath been in ages past, and what the state of things are at this present day. ... And also, here it is manifest, concerning the teachers of this age, and the root from whence they sprang, who are manifest to be of that stock of false prophets, which Christ prophesied of should come, and which the Apostles saw was coming in their dayes, and how that the night of darknesse hath been upon all, for many generations: ... And also, the restauration is described, which shortly cometh, wherein Christ shall reign, whose right it is, and shall change laws and decrees, and the lamb shall be the light of all nations, ... and their King shall possesse the uttermost parts of the earth. By one who hath measured the times, who is come to the day that hath made all things manifest. Edw: Burrough.

peace in this world and pleasure in the vanities thereof the Lord is coming to make war against you his trumpet hath sounded and his Sons and Daughters is gone forth to bear witnesse of his Majesty and Power and Dominion and the Lord hath spoken who can but prophesie he hath given the word and many are they that publish it Let your eares be open to instruction and kicke not against the Lord neither harden your hearts against him but make way for him and prepare his path for he cometh to judge the world in righteousnesse and the people with equity and the testimony of the light of Jesus in you all shall witnesse for him your Princely powers must become subject to the power of the Kingdome of the most high and your glory must be vailed and darkned before the glory which the Lord is causeing to shine forth and we the servants of the most high doe give you warning of the day of your visitation which is upon you and all the world for the Lord is now risen who hath long winked at the time of great ignorance but now he warnes you all to repent therefore bow down ye stiffe-necked and tremble ye stout-hearted and be abased ye lofty-looks our King is above you all our dominion is over you all and the line of true judgement are you all measured with and your wayes are not found perfect in the sight of the Lord nor your hearts right before him his Kingdome hath not been known in your dominions neither hath his Law and his Judgements borne rule but you have every one bin doing that which is right in the sight of your own eyes and the counsells of your heart hath been nought but vanity before the Lord vain glory hath abounded among you which the Lords soul hath been burthened by the honours and pleasures of the flesh hath been your delight and strife and enmity hath been among you and warres and quarrelling and fighting one against another and you have rejoyced in the over-throw one of another and in destroying one another and you have taken pleasure in gaining one anothers dominions you have striven who should have been the greatest and greatly opressed the poor you have exalted your selves one against another and drawn up your Armies one in defiance of another and the Bloud of thousands hath been shed to satisfie the humors of your proud hearts all this hath been evill in the sight of the Lord and his Spirit hath been grieved and his soul vexed by all this and he hath forborne till he hath been weary for he hath been dishonoured by all this and his Law hath not borne rule and his judgements hath had no place you have been cruell hearted one towards another and mercilesse and without pitty and you have not done to others as you would be done unto but you have rendred evill for evill and sought occasions of evill one against another and vexed one another through the pride of your hearts Therefore now is the Lord risen to make warre against you all and to dash you to peices the feller comes up amongst you he that will not spare to ssay and to devoure who will not be affraid of your lofty lookes he will spoile you of your treasures and lay waste your strength all ye kingdomes of the earth and your gathering together against him is but as briers and thornes for he will exalt his owne Kingdome over you all and all yee Kings of the earth shall know that that the Kingdome of the most high must rule in your Kingdomes and your lawes shall be changed and the poor shall no more be opressed for he is come that proclaimes liberty unto the Captives who will remove opression far away who will change times and worships and ordinances and there shall be no Law but the Law of God nor no light but of the Lamb nor no worship but the worship in the spirit and in the truth for all your worships which the nations are full of is nought but vanity and a lye immitations and superstitions brought forth in hypocrisie and not in an upright heart vanity of vanities hath abounded both in civill and spirituall affairs The root in which you stand is wholy corrupted and no good fruit springs from it but cursed fruites which must be hewen downe and cast into the fire ye have been evill and could not bring forth any good you are corrupted

ruling men but are saying in your hearts this hath my hand done in a moment shall you be smitten and know there is one above you which must rule for it his right to rule over all nations and there shall be no King but Jesus the anointed of God nor no government but the government of the Lambe there shall be no more warres but war against the Dragon who hath stood to devour the man-child which is now bringing forth and he must rule with his iron rod and shall subdue all under his feet We whom God hath warned cannot but warn you of these things whith are to come to passe he is coming to seperate betwixt the just and the unjust he will gather from among you that the wicked may be consumed from off the face of the earth All you Rulers in the world I warne you all take heed how you persecute such as comes to warne you who brings this message to you least you add sin to sin till there be no place found for repentance for ye shall all know our God is the true God that made heaven and earth before whose presence all flesh must come to judgement By a Friend unto the Creation E.
