A43753	To all the inhabitants of the earth this is sent as a warning from the Lord, vvho hath been long grieved with a sinful and an adulterous generation; but against the fulness of transgression hath prepared vialls full of wrath to cast upon the head of wicked and ungodly men. Here is also the vain traditional worship of both priest and people (in short) plainly made menifest to all those that art not willing to remain in ignorance, which for many years hath overspread the whole world; but now is the son of righteousness arising, which discovereth all deceivers and deceivableness, and causeth the lowly, meek and innocent to understand wisdom. Written by a servant of the Lord, who is known to you by the name of John Higgins.	Higgins, John, 1633-1667.	1658 (1658)	Wing H1952C; ESTC R215938	6,721	10

to_o all_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o the_o earth_n this_o be_v send_v as_o a_o warning_n from_o the_o lord_n who_o have_v be_v long_o grieve_v with_o a_o sinful_a and_o a_o adulterous_a generation_n but_o against_o the_o fullness_n of_o transgression_n have_v prepare_v vial_n full_a of_o wrath_n to_o cast_v upon_o the_o head_n of_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a man_n here_o be_v also_o the_o vain_a traditional_a worship_n of_o both_o priest_n and_o people_n in_o short_a plain_o make_v manifest_a to_o all_o those_o that_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o remain_v in_o ignorance_n which_o for_o many_o year_n have_v overspread_v the_o whole_a world_n but_o now_o be_v the_o son_n of_o righteousness_n arise_v which_o discover_v all_o deceiver_n and_o deceivableness_n and_o cause_v the_o lowly_a meek_a and_o innocent_a to_o understand_v wisdom_n write_a by_o a_o servant_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o be_v know_v to_o you_o by_o the_o name_n of_o john_n higgins_n i_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v call_v out_o among_o you_o and_o redeem_v i_o from_o the_o abomination_n that_o be_v commit_v among_o you_o and_o have_v set_v i_o as_o a_o sign_n and_o a_o wonder_n and_o my_o name_n be_v become_v a_o reproach_n in_o the_o mouth_n of_o fool_n and_o child_n and_o be_o look_v upon_o as_o one_o unto_o who_o some_o strange_a thing_n have_v happen_v and_o be_o despise_v and_o reject_v by_o those_o that_o be_v my_o companion_n in_o wickedness_n and_o mischief_n in_o the_o day_n wherein_o i_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o course_n of_o this_o world_n but_o before_o the_o strength_n of_o sin_n be_v perfect_v in_o i_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o love_n call_v i_o and_o pluck_v i_o as_o a_o brand_n out_o of_o the_o fire_n yea_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n be_v so_o that_o oftentimes_o though_o young_a in_o year_n when_o i_o be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o sin_n and_o evil_a the_o witness_n of_o god_n in_o my_o own_o conscience_n accuse_v and_o let_v i_o see_v the_o evil_a of_o my_o way_n and_o then_o my_o own_o heart_n condemn_v i_o in_o secret_a which_o cause_v i_o many_o time_n to_o mourn_v and_o walk_v sad_o in_o the_o sensible_a feeling_n of_o the_o lord_n just_a judgement_n in_o my_o heart_n and_o conscience_n against_o the_o evil_a of_o my_o way_n though_o not_o so_o wicked_a and_o common_a in_o all_o gross_a sin_n as_o many_o of_o my_o familiar_n be_v yet_o be_v i_o not_o free_a from_o fear_n and_o torment_n in_o my_o own_o heart_n and_o in_o this_o estate_n i_o go_v often_o to_o the_o place_n call_v the_o church_n think_v thereby_o to_o get_v peace_n in_o my_o own_o heart_n and_o by_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n i_o think_v there_o to_o find_v but_o from_o thence_o i_o come_v mourning_n and_o trouble_a in_o spirit_n because_o in_o that_o which_o be_v call_v good_a duty_n i_o find_v no_o peace_n nor_o satisfaction_n to_o the_o oppress_a in_o i_o and_o here_o i_o witness_v true_o that_o sin_n be_v to_o i_o a_o burden_n so_o that_o many_o time_n i_o go_v apart_o into_o the_o field_n to_o pray_v and_o mourn_v in_o secret_a desire_v nothing_o more_o than_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o only_o true_a god_n which_o save_v from_o sin_n for_o the_o want_n of_o which_o be_v my_o sorrow_n so_o after_o a_o time_n in_o this_o condition_n the_o lord_n hear_v the_o true_a desire_n and_o raise_v a_o swift_a witness_n in_o i_o that_o the_o way_n of_o man_n be_v evil_a continual_o and_o that_o self_n must_v be_v deny_v and_o a_o cross_n to_o it_o must_v be_v bear_v and_o so_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n jesus_n be_v manifest_a unto_o i_o which_o be_v know_v and_o receive_v redemption_n from_o sin_n and_o salvation_n from_o condemnation_n be_v witness_v according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o faith_n in_o christ_n the_o light_n by_o which_o sin_n be_v make_v manifest_a so_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o pure_a god_n be_v reveal_v even_o contrary_a to_o the_o imagination_n of_o man_n in_o the_o sensual_a wisdom_n and_o he_o be_v know_v and_o his_o judgement_n receive_v the_o hard_a heart_n be_v break_v and_o the_o darkness_n expel_v and_o his_o fear_n which_o be_v a_o shield_n against_o sin_n be_v witness_v whereby_o the_o heart_n be_v keep_v pure_a and_o clean_a in_o his_o sight_n and_o here_o to_o stand_v a_o witness_n for_o god_n against_o all_o that_o talk_v of_o his_o name_n and_o fear_n but_o know_v not_o the_o life_n and_o strength_n thereof_o and_o now_o have_v the_o lord_n open_v my_o mouth_n to_o declare_v in_o faithfulness_n and_o truth_n the_o thing_n which_o i_o have_v see_v and_o be_o a_o witness_n against_o even_o the_o great_a abomination_n that_o be_v commit_v among_o you_o inhabitant_n of_o england_n the_o sound_n of_o which_o ring_v into_o other_o country_n and_o your_o lewdness_n do_v exceed_v many_o other_o place_n and_o your_o sin_n be_v more_o in_o number_n then_o the_o sin_n of_o sodom_n or_o many_o other_o place_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v overthrow_v for_o their_o wickedness_n because_o they_o repent_v not_o but_o refuse_v to_o know_v the_o lord_n therefore_o harken_v and_o consider_v for_o assure_o the_o lord_n have_v a_o controversy_n against_o you_o because_o there_o be_v no_o knowledge_n of_o god_n among_o you_o but_o altogether_o walk_v in_o vanity_n and_o in_o uncleanness_n for_o your_o young_a man_n be_v wild_a and_o wanton_a who_o mind_n run_v after_o woman_n and_o strong_a drink_n and_o the_o age_a man_n and_o woman_n be_v live_v and_o delight_v themselves_o in_o vanity_n and_o lewdness_n even_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n the_o lust_n of_o the_o

you_o and_o much_o of_o the_o creature_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v destroy_v among_o you_o through_o the_o lust_n and_o excess_n and_o that_o abominable_a sin_n of_o drunkenness_n you_o be_v high_o guilty_a of_o and_o lye_v and_o swear_v and_o pride_n and_o grievous_a exaction_n in_o your_o buy_n and_o sell_v be_v find_v among_o you_o especial_o in_o a_o time_n of_o quick_a trade_v and_o through_o the_o abundance_n of_o this_o unrighteous_a gain_n and_o ease_n in_o the_o flesh_n you_o be_v grow_v gross_a and_o fat_a that_o you_o be_v even_o as_o the_o beast_n that_o be_v fit_v for_o the_o slaughter_n and_o this_o be_v not_o the_o number_n of_o thy_o transgression_n but_o you_o be_v set_v against_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v heart-blind_a you_o know_v it_o not_o neither_o desire_v the_o knowledge_n of_o his_o way_n but_o despiteful_o use_v they_o that_o be_v send_v among_o you_o for_o several_a time_n have_v the_o lord_n bring_v i_o among_o you_o to_o bear_v witness_n against_o you_o sin_n and_o idolatrous_a worship_n and_o once_o be_v i_o hail_v out_o of_o your_o synagogue_n and_o once_o beat_v in_o your_o street_n and_o often_o stone_v and_o mock_v with_o my_o friend_n

your_o heart_n be_v bend_v to_o do_v wicked_o but_o assure_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v at_o hand_n wherein_o all_o these_o thing_n will_v be_v bring_v to_o your_o remembrance_n and_o your_o own_o heart_n and_o conscience_n shall_v condemn_v you_o in_o that_o day_n when_o he_o bring_v his_o judgement_n near_o unto_o you_o for_o he_o have_v long_o bear_v your_o sin_n and_o give_v you_o
