State that all that see it will praise and bless it as the Daughters the Queens and the Concubines did Cant. 6.9 such a Light will shine round about it and such a Glory will arise upon it that there shall be such a Confluence unto it of those who being in Love with its Glory are converted into it that we shall cry out with Isaiah Who are these that flee as the Clouds and as the Doves to their Windowes Isa 60.1 5 6 7 and 8. verses I shall conclude this part of this Discourse with the words of the 133. Psalm Behold how good and pleasant a thing it is for Brethren to dwell together in this pure unity It 's like the precious Ointment upon the Head this Ointment was made of the most sweet and Odoriferous Spices Exod. 30.23 24. so that when it was poured out it made a most fragrant savour in the Nostrils of all those that were near unto it that run down upon the Beard even Aarons Beard that went down to the skirts of his garments it 's the very Image of the holiness of God stampt upon the Royal Priesthood of the Lord his Holy Nation and Peculiar People that must shew forth the praises of him that hath called them out of darknesse into his marvellous Light 1 Pet. 2.9 And that wrought by the mighty working and Annointing of his Holy Spirit It is as the Dew of Herman and as the Dew that descended upon the Mountains of Sion which made them both pleasant and fruitful for there the Lord commanded the Blessing even Life for evermore This is the State and Condition of his People which the Lord will Blesse with an Everlasting Blessing LIFE FOR EVERMORE which State shall suffer no alteration nor Change so long as the Son and Moon indure till the time of the Fabrick of this World ceases to be For upon the dwelling places of Sion and upon her Assemblies come into this State and frame of Spirit will the Lord create a Cloud and Smoke by Day and the shining of a flaming Fire by Night he will work as wonderfully as ever he did of Old to defend this Glory And there shall be a Tabernacle for a shadow in the day time from the heat and for a place of refuge and for a covert from Storme and from Rain even from ALL that their Enemies can by the help of the Powers of Darkness be able to do against them We come now to consider the END of the Lord in Correcting and Afflicting his People which is 1. To take this Sin away This is fully expressed By this therefore shall the INIQUITY of Jacob be PURGED and this is all the Fruit to take away his Sin This Verse gathers up the preceding verses into it By this by what By the means fore-mentioned by the Smitings and the Slayings of the Enemy By this therefore wherefore Why will God make use of those means to purge Jacob First because the Lord will measure out the Affliction that it shall continue no longer then this effect is wrought in Jacob. Secondly because he hath in a readiness wherewithal to stop the Current and Stream of this Affliction to stay this rough-wind as soon as ever it hath wrought its effect If the Lord did not take care of this these means would not do the work to which the Lord appoints them instead of purging only they would destroy Jacob instead of taking away his Sin only they would take away his Being in this World By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be Purged and this is all the fruit to take away his Sin The End of God in this Affliction is to Cleanse and Purifie Jacob from his Sin yea from those sins already hinted at From hence we may lay down this Position It 's not SINNING-DEFILED Jacob God will DELIVER but it 's CLEANSED and PURIFIED Jacob whose iniquity is Purged and whose sin is taken away the Lord will bestow his salvation upon Therefore it is that the Lord will wait to be gracious he is waiting upon Jacob till the means he hath appointed the Affliction hath wrought its effect Washed and Cleansed Jacob from his Sin and the Daughtets of Sion from their Filth and Jerusalem from her Blood that he may Deliver and Save him that he may blesse Jacob that he may Take root and Israel may blossome and Bud and fill the Face of the World with Fruit. The Lord will put a Glory upon Sion and then create a defence upon all that Glory but first he will Wash and Purge her from her Filth and from her Blood Esa 4. and that by the great and terrible work mentioned in the second and third Chapters Christ will make his Spouse Terrible as an Army with Banners yea as the company of two Armies But first he will make her sick of Love exercising her under sore Afflictions the Smitings and Woundings of the Watchmen and the Robery of the Keepers of the Wall till she become undefiled looking forth as the morning fair as the Moon and clear as the Son Cant. 5. and 6. Chapters God will enable his People to tread down the wicked like Ashes under the Soles of their Feet But first he will sit as a Refiner and Purifier of Silver Purifying them and Purging them as Gold and Silver is Purged in the Fire Purging away their dross and taking away all their Tin Mal. 3. and 4. Chapters compared with Isa 1.15 The Lord Christ hath a great and glorious work to lead forth his people to do in the World but first he writes his Fathers Name in their Fore-head he redeems them from the Earth from among men makes them Pure Virgins having no Guile at all in them without fault before the Throne of God and then they follow the Lamb whithersoever he leads them into what Path or whatsoever work he pleases Rev. 14. Yea Christ hath Vials full of wrath to pour out upon the Earth But he will pour them out by Angels cloathed in pure and White linen having their Breasts girded about with Golden Girdles Rev. 16. The Lord will destroy Babylon but he will do it by his Sanctified ones such as rejoice in his Highness Esa 13.3 Christ hath a People that shall Reign with him but they must first suffer with him 2 Tim. 2.12 If Christs Witnesses will ascend up to Heaven as Christ did they must first be conformable to his Death Rev. 11. If it were necessary that Christ himself though he were a Son should learn obedience by the things which he suffered Heb. 5.8 much more will it appear necessary that we should through suffering learn to obey those commands which God in these last daies hath laid upon his people as his will they should do which are so contrary to flesh and blood and hard for it to bear And if it Became the Captain of our Salvation to be made Perfect through Suffering Heb. 2.10 how much more Becoming is it that his Followers his

Will you Believe me now you say you shall dye and I will not Perform my Promise in giving you the Good Land for there are so many Dangers and great Straits in the way to the possession of it that neither you nor I are able to remove them this was the purport of their language well saith God it shall be so you shall be in the truth though I be counted the lyar but before I have done with you I will make you know my breach of promise vers 34. in bearing your Iniquities tasting the fruit of your sin you shall know that it 's You that have broken the Covenant not I and that it 's your Sin grown up to such a height that it will not consist with the Glory of my Name that Glory which I have gotten to my self by all those Woundrous Works and Miracles I wrought for your deliverance and among you while I have been leading you through this Wilderness to spare you at this time which is the Cause of your falling short of the Promise into Misery 3. Gods END in all this severity towards his Israel is The vindication of his Name of his Glory As truly as I live all the Earth shall be filled with the Glory of the Lord Glory is the Great End the Lord proposes to himself in all his Works Therefore it 's no wonder he is so highly provoked when he sees any about to Rob him of his Glory The Lord had gotten himself a Glorious Name among the Heathen by those Great things those Wondrous Works he had done for this People and upon their Enemies for their sake and these Unbelieving Provoking Children would make him lose all that Glory by their unbelief and their going about to return to Egypt that State and Condition out of which the Lord had Delivered them by a Mighty Out-stretched Arme This Provokes the Eyes of Gods Glory their Tongue and their doings were against the Lord to the Provoking the Eyes of his Glory Isa 3.8 and he shewes himself a Jealous God for so he will be at such a time I will be Jealous for my Holy Name Ezek. 39.25 and this Glory the Lord will not part with I will not give my Glory unto another Isa 42.8 This Chosen People by their Rebellion and Great Unbelief would not suffer God to reap this Glory of his Name from them nor by them saith the Lord I will not lose it for the Same Glory of my Name these deny to give unto me will I have and fill the Earth with it all the Earth shall be filled with my Glory and that by their Destruction performing my Promise to my faithfull followers and their Little Ones whom their unbelief saith shal become a Prey The Lord is so Jealous of his Glory least it should be given to any other that as he will be prevailed with to pardon every Sin but such a Sin as Clouds his Glory rather than destroy his Chosen so he will destroy all things yea part with his Chosen People and destroy them as to their being in this life rather than part with his Glory that Great Fruit he expects to reap from all his Great Works both of Correction and Salvation Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples and they are written for our Admonition upon whom the Ends of the world are come as the Apostle speaks 1 Cor. 10 11. not only for the Corinthians but for ours also upon whom the Ends of the world are come The other Scripture I would put you in remembrance of is the 102 Psalm but especially the 13 and 14. verses Thou shalt arise and have mercy upon Sion for the time to favour her yea the set time is come for thy servants take pleasure in her Stones and favour the Dust thereof That this Psalm treats of a very sore Afflicting Day that shall befal the people of God the whole of it evidently demonstrates And that it concerns us in these last Daies the Generations of Sion then to come and the People then not created not then brought within the compass of the Walls of Sion to praise the Lord the 18. verse sufficiently evidences If we take a View of the troubles of it we shall find it so full of Terrors that well may Jeremy cry our of it Alas for that day is Great so that none is like it it is even the time of Jacobs Trouble This DAY It 's the Day wherein God hides his sace from his Chosen and seems though he be a God hearing Prayer to be deaf unto his cry implyed in the 1. and 2. verses It 's the day of Gods Indignation and Wrath wherein the Lord in Wrath casts him down who formerly in Mercy and Loving-kindness he had lifted up verse 10. And the wrath of God waxeth so hot against this Afflicted that it burns bis Bones as an hearth and by it his daies are consumed like Smoke ver 3.
