A60911	A testimony of love and good vvill unto all them who desire to come to enjoy an everlasting being with the Lord of life when dayes in this world will have an end. Given forth by one that desireth the good of all, and that none may perish in sin, John SOnghurst.	Songhurst, John, d. 1688.	1680 (1680)	Wing S4687; ESTC R220752	51,316	88

i_o let_v israel_n go_v this_o sturdy_n oak_n do_v god_n visit_v with_o judgement_n by_o pour_v out_o of_o his_o plague_n upon_o he_o and_o his_o land_n and_o he_o bring_v down_o his_o pride_n in_o the_o red_a sea_n and_o he_o humble_v he_o by_o a_o perpetual_a overthrow_n in_o the_o deep_a but_o this_o israel_n who_o pharaoh_n will_v not_o let_v go_v that_o they_o may_v hold_v a_o feast_n unto_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o sacrifice_n unto_o their_o god_n they_o do_v god_n deliver_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n by_o a_o strong_a arm_n and_o lead_v through_o the_o red_a sea_n as_o upon_o dry_a land_n make_v the_o water_n stand_v as_o wall_n on_o the_o right_a hand_n and_o on_o the_o left_a and_o thus_o god_n make_v pharach_n a_o example_n to_o all_o that_o after_o shall_v be_v hard-hearted_a and_o refuse_v to_o obey_v the_o lord_n and_o let_v it_o never_o be_v forget_v that_o in_o all_o these_o overthrow_v god_n take_v care_n for_o the_o righteous_a for_o they_o that_o love_v god_n and_o obey_v his_o voice_n and_o rebel_v not_o against_o his_o good_a spirit_n but_o turn_v at_o the_o reproof_n thereof_o who_o sin_v not_o but_o stand_v in_o awe_n as_o namely_o noah_n that_o righteous_a man_n him_z god_n save_v from_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o old_a world_n and_o deliver_v just_a lot_n out_o of_o the_o overthrow_n of_o sodom_n and_o israel_n his_o people_n he_o redeem_v out_o of_o the_o iron-furnace_n and_o deliver_v they_o from_o pharaoh_n that_o oppress_v they_o and_o plead_v their_o cause_n with_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o avenge_v their_o wrong_n upon_o they_o yet_o here_o be_v one_o precedent_n more_o that_o part_n of_o israel_n which_o sin_v and_o obey_v not_o god_n voice_n but_o day_n by_o day_n provoke_v he_o to_o anger_n by_o their_o rebellion_n and_o unbelief_n even_a they_o for_o who_o god_n have_v wrought_v such_o great_a salvation_n god_n overthrow_v in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o cut_v they_o off_o in_o his_o anger_n by_o the_o sword_n the_o plague_n or_o other_o destruction_n and_o twenty_o three_o thousand_o fall_v in_o one_o day_n and_o god_n make_v their_o child_n to_o wander_v in_o the_o wilderness_n forty_o year_n to_o bear_v the_o whoredom_n of_o their_o father_n till_o the_o carcase_n of_o their_o father_n be_v consume_v in_o the_o wilderness_n these_o god_n be_v grieve_v and_o displease_v with_o because_o they_o rebel_v against_o his_o good_a spirit_n which_o he_o give_v they_o to_o instruct_v and_o lead_v they_o in_o the_o way_n they_o shall_v go_v and_o this_o be_v not_o all_o but_o he_o swear_v in_o his_o wrath_n they_o shall_v not_o enter_v into_o his_o rest_n so_o may_v we_o well_o conclude_v with_o the_o apostle_n that_o if_o god_n spare_v not_o the_o angel_n that_o sin_v nor_o the_o old_a world_n that_o sin_v nor_o the_o city_n of_o sodom_n and_o gomorrah_n that_o sin_v nor_o pharaoh_n and_o his_o host_n that_o sin_v nor_o that_o part_n of_o israel_n that_o sin_v who_o god_n so_o dear_o love_v and_o wrought_v so_o great_a salvation_n for_o but_o make_v they_o example_n for_o all_o that_o after_o shall_v live_v ungodly_a oh_o what_o shall_v be_v the_o end_n of_o those_o that_o tread_v under_o foot_n the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o count_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o covenant_n a_o unholy_a thing_n and_o do_v despite_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n and_o daily_o crucify_v the_o son_n of_o god_n afresh_o spiritual_o by_o their_o ungodly_a life_n and_o ungodly_a conversation_n for_o as_o sin_n be_v the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n so_o whosoever_o sin_v rebel_n against_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o do_v do_v despite_n to_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n and_o as_o he_o that_o despise_v the_o law_n that_o come_v by_o moses_n die_v without_o mercy_n so_o god_n have_v reserve_v a_o great_a punishment_n for_o he_o that_o sin_n wilful_o and_o turn_v not_o at_o god_n reproof_n but_o rebel_n against_o his_o spirit_n set_v at_o nought_o his_o counsel_n and_o despise_v his_o reproof_n and_o hate_v knowledge_n and_o do_v not_o choose_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n nor_o that_o light_n and_o grace_n that_o inward_o strive_v with_o man_n to_o turn_v they_o from_o sin_n by_o inward_o check_v and_o reprove_v they_o for_o sin_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o conscience_n and_o inward_a part_n and_o counsel_v they_o in_o their_o inward_a part_n to_o live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n such_o i_o say_v must_v inherit_v everlasting_a flame_n and_o have_v their_o portion_n in_o the_o lake_n that_o burn_v where_o shall_v be_v weep_v and_o wail_v and_o gnash_v of_o tooth_n and_o that_o for_o evermore_o and_o let_v it_o be_v observe_v how_o god_n love_v the_o righteous_a and_o preserve_v they_o in_o all_o age_n who_o fear_v god_n and_o stand_v in_o his_o counsel_n and_o love_v god_n above_o all_o who_o fear_v god_n because_o they_o love_v he_o and_o sin_v not_o but_o stand_v in_o awe_n oh_o how_o attentive_a be_v god_n ear_n to_o hear_v they_o and_o how_o do_v god_n open_v their_o heart_n to_o intercede_v for_o the_o ungodly_a for_o their_o enemy_n for_o they_o that_o hate_v they_o without_o a_o cause_n

there_o be_v no_o man_n of_o himself_o can_v come_v to_o be_v righteous_a and_o pure_a in_o heart_n but_o christ_n must_v cleanse_v and_o purge_v the_o heart_n and_o wash_v it_o by_o the_o inward_a

manner_n of_o come_v to_o christ_n be_v to_o come_v to_o his_o light_n and_o grace_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o so_o to_o be_v make_v new_a creature_n man_n must_v leave_v sin_n and_o come_v to_o a_o

true_a i_o have_v find_v it_o so_o by_o good_a experience_n and_o this_o be_v the_o devil_n end_v to_o keep_v people_n mind_n upon_o earthly_a thing_n that_o they_o may_v never_o mind_v heavenly_a

lay_v up_o in_o heaven_n for_o all_o those_o that_o will_v come_v to_o god_n upon_o his_o term_n which_o term_n be_v for_o people_n to_o repent_v deny_v themselves_o to_o take_v up_o a_o cross_n to_o their_o own_o will_n to_o love_v and_o fear_n god_n and_o to_o worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n and_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o none_o can_v do_v this_o without_o the_o spirit_n if_o it_o

that_o have_v get_v on_o a_o cover_v which_o be_v not_o of_o god_n spirit_n these_o be_v ever_o the_o work_n for_o all_o religion_n be_v false_a except_o that_o in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n and_o all_o these_o false_a colour_n of_o religion_n be_v ever_o invent_v by_o the_o devil_n and_o this_o be_v one_o way_n that_o he_o in_o all_o generation_n do_v work_v when_o he_o can_v no_o long_o keep_v people_n in_o open_a profaneness_n than_o he_o invent_v new_a way_n for_o they_o to_o walk_v in_o and_o he_o will_v plead_v scripture_n for_o it_o too_o and_o speak_v much_o of_o the_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n work_n too_o that_o in_o age_n past_a they_o be_v command_v to_o do_v which_o be_v good_a in_o their_o day_n and_o time_n to_o they_o that_o be_v obedient_a to_o it_o which_o be_v to_o

and_o have_v put_v a_o end_n to_o these_o thing_n and_o have_v set_v up_o a_o worship_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o devil_n he_o be_v always_o a_o keep_v busy_v about_o

that_o he_o work_v in_o the_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n always_o when_o he_o can_v keep_v people_n no_o long_o in_o open_a profaneness_n then_o to_o turn_v they_o into_o outward_a duty_n as_o he_o
