A84778 A declaration concerning fasting, and prayer. Of the true fast, which raiseth up the foundation of many generations; which is not the hanging down of the head like a bulrush for a day. Also; a declaration of the false fast, where is the hanging down the head like a bulrush for a day, and the bonds of iniquity standing, which iniquity seperates from God, while that is standing; the foundation of many generations is not seen. And sheweth, the prayer that God accepts, and what he hears, that which is from his Spirit, and sheweth what prayers he hears not, which is contrary to it, which God accepts not; and here you may see the difference between the true praying and the false. Fox, George, 1624-1691. 1656 (1656) Wing F1785; Thomason E885_4; ESTC R204830 5,737 8

standing and the burthens unloosed and the oppressed not let go free and the yoke not broken the nakedness not cloathed the bread not dealt to the hungry and the foundation of many generations not raised up untill these things before mentioned be broken down on such the light breaks not forth as the morning and the Lord hears not that and such have their reward and such their iniquities have separated them from their God and their sins have hid his face from them that he cannot hear and such their hands are defiled with blood and their fingers with iniquity whose lips have spoken lyes and tongues have muttered perverseness none called for justice nor any plead for truth they trust in vanity and speak lies and conceive mischief and bring forth iniquity they hatch cockatrice egges and weave the spiders web he that eateth of their egges dyes and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper their web shal not becom garments neither shal they cover themselves with their works mark and take notice their works are works of iniquity the act of violence is in their hands their feet run to do evill they make hast to shed innocent blood their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity wasting and destruction is in their pathes the way of peace they know not there is no judgement in their doings they have made them a crooked path whosoever goes therein shal not know peace marke such go from the light therefore is judgement far neither doth justice overtake and here is obscurity and here is the walking in darkness and here is the groping like blinde men as though they had no eyes and their stumbling at noon-day in the desolate places like dead men and here is the roaring like bears and mourning sorely like doves and here judgement is looked for but there is none and salvation is put far off for the light is denyed which gives to see it but here the multiplying of transgression and their sins testifying against them and the transgression that was within them and their iniquities which they knew in transgressing lying against the Lord speaking the things they should not when that they knew with that of God in them they should not speak it so departing from the way of God speaking oppression revolting conceivings and uttering forth from the heart words of falshood here is Judgement turned away backward and Justice stands afar off truth is fallen in the streets and cannot enter yea truth falls and he that departeth from iniquity makes himself a prey yea the Lord saw it and it displeased him These are such that are in the fast which God doth not accept and are not in the true fast whose light breaks forth as the morning but these are such that be in the false fast who grope like blinde men and that which gives to know the true fast and the false fast is the light which is the eye that gives to see each where the true Judgement is and the iniquity standeth not nor the transgressor nor the speaker of lyes but that is judged and condemned with the light which makes it manifest and who be in this fast when they call upon the Lord the Lord will answer them here am I and here truth is pleaded for and falshood flies away but who be out of this fast in the perverseness tongues uttering perverse things are stumbling and groping like blinde men which be from the light in the iniquity which separates from God who hides his face from them that he will not hear going from the light goes from the Lord and his face so this is it which must be fasted from for this is it which separates from God and here comes the reward openly which condemnes all that before mentioned which is contratrary to the light injustice iniquity transgression vanity and that which brings forth mischief which hatcheth the cockatrice-eggs and weaves the spiders web he that eateth of these eggs dyeth mark that which is crushed breaks out into a Viper mark again their web shal not become garments neither shall they cover themselves with their works of vanity acts of violence is in their hands this is all from the light in the wickedness their feet run to do evill make hast to shed innocent blood their thoughts are thoughts of vanity wasting and destruction is in their path this is all from the light again the way of peace they know not there is no judgement in their goings they have made them crooked pathes whosoever goes therein shall not know peace mark who goes in their way that know not the way of peace shall not know peace whose path is crooked where there is no judgement in their goings take notice no judgement in their goings and this is all from the light which manifesteth that which is to be judged where the covenant of peace is known where all that which is contrary to it before-mentioned is kept out which all who live in those things before-mentioned contrary to the light in the false fast they may mark their path and behold their reward who be out of the light stumbling and groping like blinde men which they that be in the true fast are from all them separated their words their actions and fruits and their fast whose fast breaks the bonds of iniquity and whom the Lord hears and to whom righteousness springs forth and goes
