he put in your hearts to fulfill his In which apparition you know he commanded him to loose h●s shoe off his foot because the place whereon he stood was holy Which was a ceremonie used of old by that people not onely in civill affaires but also in ecclesiasticall In civill both concerning the resigning over of ones right in matter of inheritance to another according to the law Deut. 25. 9. whereof we have an example in Ruths kinsman Ruth 4. 7. Also in time of affliction and griefe as it is to be seene in David 2 Sam. 15. 30. fleeing from Jerusalem when his sonne Absalon had conspired against him the same is also commanded to the Prophet Isa. to bee performed by him as a signe to the Israelites Isa. 20. 2. 3. The same ceremonie was also used by the Priests when they entred into the * Holy place to doe the service there which Ceremonies though now abolished yet the moralitie thereof may be of use and doth concerne us also as it was a signe first of shame secondly of sorrow and thirdly not onely of purity according to Eccle. 5. 1. where wee are advised to looke to our feet but also of willingnesse and diligence in the service of the Lord according to Psal. 110. 3. where the people of God is said to be a willing people and Jer. 48. 10. where hee is cursed that doth the worke of the Lord negligently Of all which Joshua was now admonished by the Lord even as if he had said unto him My intent O Joshua whom I have called to be the leader of my people by this that I do command thee now to doe is that thereby thou mayest be informed both thou and this great people that I have committed to thy charge that you ought to consider seriously the Covenant wherein you are now entred with me whereby as on my part I have obliged my selfe to accompanie you in the conquest of this land of Canaan thereby to performe accomplish all the promises concerning it which I have made of old both to your fathers to your selves so on the otherside you also have obliged your selves thereby upon your soules and consciences that with shame and confusion of face with unfained sorrow and true penitent hearts you shall renounce all your former Jdolatries manifold murmurs rebellions and abominations whereby you have so often provoked me to anger even as your fathers had done before wherefore I was constrained to ma●e their carkasses to fall in the wildernesse as I had sworne unto them in my wrath and besides that you will also obey and doe all my commandements and ordinances with all your hearts and with all your soules in a good conscience and faith unfained that you may possesse this land for ever and live therein you and your children after you To the like effect doe we reade in the 19. chap. of the Revel. that after that the foure and twenty Elders and the foure Beasts mentioned in the fourth verse of the said chapter representing the Christian Churches and the heads of them now assembled or met together in the presence of God in Parliament passed over the mysticall Euphrates had fallen downe and worshipped God that sate on the throne saying Amen Hallelujah that then a voyce came out of the throne saying prayse our God all ye his servants and ye that feare him both small and great by the action of which Elders c. is noted the entring of the said people in the said Covenant the said action being parallell to that as the words of the third verse and the action there mentioned are also the true parallell of that first action performed by Joshua immediately before this and presently after the passage over Jordan as soone as they were arrived in Gilgal * where Joshua did pitch the twelve stones taken in Iordan for a memoriall to future ages of the drying up of the said waters of Iordan and of their passage over it dry foot the erecting of which stones in the type doth signifie in the Antitype the enacting and registring of the sentence of the utter overthrow and abolishment of the p Hierarchicall prelaticall power of Archbishops and Bishops first in all our Kings Dominions and afterwards in the whole Canaan or land of the Kingdome of the Beast it signifies also the sentence of Excommunication by which it viz. the Beast must be confined for ever to the bottomlesse pit whence it issued Revel. 17. 8. or cast into the q lake of fire and brimstone mentioned Revel. 19. 20. and 20. 10. typified by the lake of Sodom wherein the said Jordan was as it were cast when it was dryed up being also therein a prototype of that sea mentioned Revel. 18. 21. where it is said that a mightie Angell tooke up a stone like a great milstone and cast it into the sea saying with such violence shall the great Cittie Babylon be cast and shall bee found no more alluding to that other type mentioned * Jer. 51. 63. 64. Even so the words uttered by that * voyce comming out of the throne and saying prayse our God c. is the right parallell of the said apparition to Joshua above mentioned importing the very same commandement which ought to bee made to all the people of God both small and great as well those that are his domesticall servants as all the rest of them that feare him concerning the due consideration of the importance of the said Covenant that this Christian Israel hath now made with God as it appeares first by the place whence the said voyce came which is the throne whereby allusion is made to the place where and to the manner how the Lord was wont to * answer from the Oracle the Kings asking counsell at the Lord by the Priests bearing the Ephod whose lips doth preserve knowledge and at whose mouth the law is sought Mal. 2. 7. And thus the true and faithfull Ministers of the Gospel having first consulted the true Oracles of God onely that is his sacred word ought to informe in the name of the Lord the King and his Nobles that they must prayse and sanctifie that God alone according to his most holy will sacred ordinances commanded in his said word with whom they are now entred in Covenant and not onely they but also by their command all the servants of the Lord employed in the service of the Lord in all the Churches of his Majesties Dominions and likewise all his faithfull subjects that doe feare the Lord both small and great And that they must therefore abhorre and detest all their former contrary Religion doctrine and worship but chiefly all kind of Popery either in generall or particular heads even as they are refuted and condemned by the said word of God in all the true reformed Churches but in speciall that they must detest and reject all the usurped authority of all Hierarchicall Archbishops and Diocesean
