A81085	The little horns doom & dovvnfall or A scripture-prophesie of King James, and King Charles, and of this present Parliament, unfolded. Wherein it appeares, that the late tragedies that have bin acted upon the scene of these three nations: and particularly, the late Kings doom and death, was so long ago, as by Daniel pred-eclared [sic]. And what the issue of all will be, is also discovered; which followes in the second part. By M. Cary, a servant of Jesus Christ.

shall not then break out and uncleanness shall not then appear in them and this appears Isa 62. 12. And they shall say to the daughter of Zion Behold thy salvation cometh behold his reward is with him and his reward before him and they shall call them THE HOLY PEOPLE the redeemed of the Lord and thou shalt be called Sought out a citie not forsaken And Joel 3. 21. For I will ●…eanse their blood that I have not cleansed for the Lord dwelleth in Zion And Isai 1. 25. And I will turn my hand upon thee and purely purge away thy dross and take away all thy tin And in Isa 60. 21. and Jer. 21. 23. places already mentioned Again in the fifteenth place the Spirit being thus abundantly poured out upon them it shall make them appear very * Great spiritual glory will then appear in Saints glorious in the eyes of all for herein will their greatest glory then consist this is that which will make Sion the praise of the whole earth That she shall be thus gloriously adorned with the Spirit which is that glorious apparel which maketh the Kings daughter all glorious within as well as without Psal 45. 13. The Kings daughter is all glorious within her clothing is of wrought gold And therefore it is that Rev. 21. this New Jerusalem is thus described The building of the wall of this beloved City which vers 2. is said to be prepared as a Bride adorned for her husband I say the building of the wall of this City is said to be of Jasper and the City is said to be of pure gold like unto clear Glass and the foundation of the wall of the City to be garnished with all manner of precious stones the first Jasper the second Saphir the third a Chalcedony the fourth an Emerauld the fifth Sardonix the sixth Sardius the seventh Chrysolite the eighth Beryl the ninth a Topaz the tenth a Chrysoprasus the eleventh a Jacinct the twelfth an Amethyst And the twelve gates are said to be twelve Pearls every several gate of one Pearl and the street of the City to be of pure Gold as it were transparent Glass All which serves to set out that lustre and glory which shall appear in the Saints the beloved City of God by reason of that abundant measure of the Spirit which they shall enjoy in that day And expressions to the same purpose we have Isa 54. 11 12. O thou afflicted and tossed with tempest and not comforted behold I will lay thy stones with fair colours and lay thy foundations with Saphirs and I will make thy windows of Agates and thy gates of Carbuncles and all thy borders of pleasant stones The Saints of God which for a long time have been afflicted and tossed with tempest and not comforted both by reason of enemies from without and corruptions from within so that no beauty nor comeliness hath appeared in them shall then be so freed both from outward afflictions and by the plentiful enjoyment of the Spirit from inward corruptions as they shall appear very glorious all fair and richly garnished and adorned with the choicest spiritual jewels And therefore not without cause doth David say Psal 87. 3. Glorious things are spoken of thee O city of God Again in the sixteenth place The Spirit being thus abundantly enjoyed by the Saints in these times they shall thereby be enabled to make a holy use of all the creatures which * Saints shall not sin at all in the use of the creatures they shall then enjoy And that which was said of those holy men of old shall be then truly said of them they shall visit their † Job tabernacles and not sin and they shall walk within * Psal 101. 2. their house with a perfect heart They shall indeed build houses and inhabit them and plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them but they shall not defile their houses by sinning in them nor shall they sin in using the creatures which they shall enjoy their corn and wine and oyl and flocks and herds and fruits of the trees and of the field which they shall enjoy shall in no sort be abused by them for the Spirit shall guide them to use all the creatures in a holy manner enabling of them to receive them with prayer and thanksgiving as Joel 2. 26. And ye shall eat in plenty and be satisfied and praise the Name of the Lord your God And Isa 62. 8 9. Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thine enemies and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy wine for the which thou hast laboured but they that have gathered shall eat it and praise the Lord and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness And as they shall thus praise the Lord for all his mercies so doubtless shall they pray unto him for a holy use of them though the Scripture do not particularly speak of it for at this time though they shall be assured of all mercies of all sorts yet shall it be no * A full assurance of having mercies is no hinderance to a real Saints praying for mercy hinderance to their praying for them as to make them argue thus Why I am sure I shall have these and these mercies whether I pray for them or not and therefore what need have I to pray for them No but as now those that have most true and real assurance of mercies are most in prayer as the Lord Jesus himself was and as Paul was so shall it be in these times when the spirit of grace and supplication shall be most a bundantly poured out so that all creatures shall be sanctified to them being received with prayer and thanksgiving They shall eat and be satisfied and praise the Lord. And in the seventeenth place The Spirit being then thus abundantly showred down upon the Saints it shall fill them with holy * Saints shall be filled with joy joy without any mixtures of sorrow at all joy and gladness of heart for it is the very nature of the Spirit to be a Comforter and therefore where much of the Spirit is there must needs be much joy and so indeed there shall be and therefore it is said Isai 65. 18 19. Be ye glad and rejoyce for ever in that which I create for behold I create Jerusalem a rejoycing and her people a joy And I will rejoyce in Jerusalem and joy in my people and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her nor the voice of crying It 's true that to compleat this joy they shall have many external or outward mercies but the pouring out of the Spirit is the main ingredient of their joy and without it their joy in all other enjoyments could be no joy no true joy The voice of weeping nor the voice of crying shall be no more heard among them and it is true that in respect of outwards
