will be no more to you Oh! prize the light prize the day of the Lords visitation of you for as I said before so I say again from the Lord that the day of your visitation is near passed over your heads and when it is passed over your heads then you may seek the Lord and shall not find him and call upon him and he will not hear you Why because saith the Lord when I called ye would not answer and when I spoke ye would not hear then will the Lord mock at your calamity and laugh when your fear cometh Therefore I say seek ye the Lord while he may be found and call upon him while he is near you for he is a God athand and not a God a far off and he is near unto all that call upon him in truth and in righteousnesse Oh! Earth Earth Earth Oh! People People People dread and fear the living God and tremble and bow before him whose day is at hand that will burn as an Oven Yea and all the proud and all that do wickednesse shall be as stubble and except you speedily repent and return unto him he will burn you up and he will leave you neither root nor branch and then the Rocks and the Mountains nor all your outward strength shall not be able to save you from the wrath of the Lamb nor from the indignation of the Just One who is risen and arising as a Mighty man of War to take the Kingdom and the greatnesse of the Kingdoms Yea he is risen and arising to plead with all flesh by Fire and by Sword and the slain of the Lord shall be many for the Sword of the Lord is drawn and furbished and he is preparing of it for the slaughter and except you speedily return unto the Lord he will kindle a fire in your bowels which shall never be quenched until it hath consumed you Therefore all ye tall Cedars Sturdy and stout ones if you go on in rebellion and stif-neckednesse against the Lord and continue your persecuting and imprisoning of the servants of the most high God which are by you reproachfully called Quakers thus saith the Lord God I will dash you to pieces as a potters Vessel and will make you bend and bow before me saith the Lord and will exalt the horn of mine Anointed Therefore all ye Rulers Priests and People whose trust is in the Arm of flesh and whose strength consisteth in the Host of men and in Horses and Chariots and in Tumults Noises and Voices and although you have made a Covenant with Death and an agreement with Hell yet your Covenant with Death and agreement with Hell shall be broken by the Power of the Lord God and although at the present you have power to cast the servants of the most High God some into one Prison and some into another and some into Dungeons and Holes and under many locks and boults and make havock and spoil of their goods yet thus saith the Lord God that he will not leave us nor forsake us for our enemies to destroy us but he will with his own out-stretched Arm bring deliverance for us as we wait in patience on him which deliverance shall be beyond the expectation of man whose breath is in his Nostrils And it shall be an astonishment unto all the Heathen round about and the Lord God will give us the necks of our Enemies to tread upon and they shall be as ashes under the soles of our feet And this I can truly and boldly say through the love of God towards me whose love I hope will never be forgotten by me although at the present I am in outward bonds yet neverthelesse in the pure Eternal truth of God I do reign and triump and do Trample upon all the heads and necks of the wicked and this I do declare in boldnesse from the Lord God who hath said and doth still say unto me fear not what man can do unto thee for I will never leave thee nor forsake thee That the Lord God will make you all bend and bow unto his pure everlasting truth which he hath by his own power gathered us into who are scornfully and reproachfully by you called Quakers Mark I do not say that you shall bend and bow unto us as Creatures but unto his pure everlasting Truth and unto his pure Divine power by which we are upheld and by which we reign over all the heads of the wicked Yea verily the Lord God will make you bow unto his Son Christ Jesus the light of the World who is the true light that enlightneth every man that cometh into the World who is the Way the Truth and the Life who is risen to rule the Nations with a Rod of Iron and he will make all bend and bow before him for there is no other Name by-which any man can be saved but by the Name of Jesus at which every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confesse unto him and although Gog and Magog Beast and false Prophet and all the powers of darknesse joyn hand in hand and gather to gather and make a head against the Lamb and his Followers yet the Lamb shall gain the Victory For there is no Weapon formed against you shall prosper saith the Lord. And know this assuredly that the work which the Lord God hath begun in the Earth he will accomplish it and you can no more stop or hinder the work of the Lord which he hath begun then you can stop or hinder the Sun from rising or the Wind from blowing or the Rain from descending no more can you stop or hinder the Work of the Lord Therefore in vain do you strive against the Lord and his Anointed for if I do work saith the Lord who can hinder Therefore all ye fruitlesse Trees which cumbers the ground ye are good for nought but for the fire who have long made a profession of a God and a Christ in words but in life and in power you do deny him For now is the Lord come to seek for Fruit and behold what is to be found amongst you but corruption and wickednesse for the best of you is as a Bryar and the uprightest of you sharper then a Thorn hedge so you are found to be fruitlesse Trees which cumbers the Ground ye are good for nothing but for the fire and now is the Ax laid to the Root of the Tree and every Tree that bringeth not forth good fruit shall be hewed down and cast into the fire Therefore cease professing of a God and a Christ in words and make no more profession of a God and a Christ in words then you can witnesse of them in life and in power for profession without possession is no more before the Lord then the Chaffe is before the Wind neither is it any more in the fight of the Lord then the cutting off a Dogsneck or offering Swines blood Therefore all ye Rulers Priests and People who professe and
