A Tender and Unfeigned SALUTATION Of Love and Good-Will TO PROFESSORS OR A tender Invitation and Call unto all People in whose hearts there hath been and still is some true desiring and breathing after the Lord God who hath long been hunting abroad amongst the many Forms and Likenesses and have been running from one broken Cistern to another and have been long spending their mony for that which is not bread and their labour for that which hath not rightly satisfied their Souls for them to retire inward unto that in their own hearts which is the Authour of the desiring in them after God even the pure Spiritual light of Christ Jesus in their own Consciences which will lead and bring them that doth it follow and obey unto the well-spring of Life the fountain of living Water where they may drink abundantly and be satisfied unto the fould of everlasting Rest unto the fresh Pastures of life where they may feed and lie down and enjoy true rest and satisfaction for their Souls From one whose tender Soul in Spirit doth travel for the prosperity of Sion even that her waste places and wildernesses may be made glad and that her deserts may rejoyce and come to blossom as a Rose that joy and gladness may alone be found in her Thanksgiving and the voice of Melody and the days of her Mourning be wholly over The 2d Month 1664. A Friend to all people William Bennit Printed in the Year 1664. A tender and unfained Salutation of Love and Good-will to Professors c. THe Lord God Almighty hath and is a looking down upon the Sons and Daughters of Men and hath and doth behold many of them even as poor scattered Sheep without a Shepheard wandering as in the Desarts and waste howling Wilderness wandering as upon the barren Mountains and dry heaths hungry and thirsty their souls unsatisfied seeking diligently for food upon the barren Mountains running from Mountain to Mountain and from Hill to Hill and cannot find that Food that will truly satisfy their hungry Souls and running from one broken Cistern to another and cannot find one drop of water that will truly refresh their thirsty Souls who are seeking the living God amongst the dead Forms and seeking the Meat among the Shells and the Substance among the Shadows and cannot find that which they seek after nor enjoy him whom their Souls longeth for seeking rest and can find no true Rest desiring to know where the Lord God the good Shepheard of Israel feeds his Sheep and Lambs and where they lie down in quietness and rest free from the fear of Evil. And this the Lord God of pity hath seen and in his Infinite tender bowels hath been and now is moved with yearnings of pity and compassion towards them and for his own Seeds sake he hath and is in Mercy to them stretching forth the Hand of his loving kindness unto them to gather in one the scattered to gather together in Ezek. 34. 11 c. one the dispersed to bring whom the wanderer and the prodigal that hath long fed upon the husks among the Swine to the Fathers house of plenty where there is bread enough and water faileth not Yea the Lord God Almighty of Heaven and Earth hath and is lifting up an Ensigne for the Nations and hath and will assemble the out-casts of Jacob and the dispersed Judah from the four corners of the Earth and hath and will return the Captivity of his People and then Jacob shall be glad and Israel shall rejoyce in him the steam Psal 14 7. of Jesse which doth and shall stand for an Ensigne of the people and unto him doth and shall the Gentiles seek and his rest is and shall be sweet and glorious to the poor for whom he will Judge in Righteousness and Reprove with Equity for the meek of the Earth who will smite the Earth with the Rod of his Mouth and with the breath of his Lips will he slay the Wicked and Rule the Nations with his Iron Rod and break Psal 2. 8 9. the Heathen to pieces like a Potters vessel who hath Righteousness for the girdle of his Loins and Faithfulness the girdle of his reins who hath on the Brestplate of Righteousness and a Helmet of Salvation on his Head who hath put on the Garment of Vengeance for cloathing and is clad with Zeal as with a Cloak who with the two-edged sword that proceeds out of his mouth makes War in Righteousness who hath on a Vesture dipt in blood and his Name is called the Word Rev. 19. 13.
