That you may all take warning, and be ye all forewarned, that you act not in the steps of your forefathers, whom the Lord hath cast out as an abominable thing, as he hath done all rulers in all ages and generations, which have sought themselves, and established laws in their own wills, whereby the just have suffered, and now do suffer: the people which the Lord hath chosen are trodden upon, and the powers of the earth have set themselves against the mighty power of the Lord in them. But now is the Lord arising to plead the cause of the just, and woe for ever to all Sions adversaries. / By him who is a lover of your souls, and a lover of Israels common-wealth, whom the Lord is returning out of captivity, to serve him in their own land in perfect freedom. Geo. Fox. Fox, George, 1624-1691. 1654 (1654) Wing F1863; Thomason E812_2; ESTC R202175 14,507 15

FOX And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian Sea and with his mighty wind shall shake his hand over the River and shall smite it in the seven streams and make men go over dryshod Isa 11.15 And there shall be an High-way for the remnant of his people which shall be left from Assyria like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the Land of Egypt ver 16. London Printed in the Year 1654. A MESSAGE From the Lord TO THE PARLIAMENT OF ENGLAND THe word of the living God to this Nation to the light in you all I speak which Christ Jesus hath enlightned withall which light is the way to Christ Jesus the Saviour and the father of light and this is the true light which doth enlighten every one that comes into the world which shews you sin and evil and your evil deeds and your own inventions and imaginations which if you love this light and in it walk up to Christ from whence it comes who is the way to the father and so to stand in the counsel of God and to receive the Law from God which is perfect according to that of God in every mans conscience this doth indure for ever then you will all come to witness the Lord is our Law-giver and come to witness the sound wisdom which is from above that with it you may know how to order and rule in the Creation the Creatures by which wisdom all things were made where no invention of the Heathen enters Now if you do hate this light and follow your own Heathenish inventions and the Laws and Customs of Kings and Queens which formerly have been enacted to the light in all your consciences I speak that with it you may see how the Lord hath hewen down many who have followed their own inventions and ways for all that which hath been enacted and invented Laws and Statutes and Acts in that nature contrary to the light is for condemnation with the light eternally to you all this is the word of the living God to the light of Christ in you all I do speak which is one if you love it you all love one and then you will be one in the light and it will teach you how to pray and how to watch and it will exercise your consciences towards God and towards man and enlighten your understandings and inform them towards Christ from whence the light doth come and with it you may see him who bears his government upon his shoulders who will reign and rule yea and he doth reign and rule thousands do witness it praise and honour to the Lord God of heaven and earth for ever who gives dominion to his Sons and daughters with his mighty power over the world glory and honour be to him for ever who is setting up his Kingdom and Throne over all Principalities and Powers of the earth who is gathering up to himself with his light from the four corners of the earth Now to the light in all your consciences I speak you that are gathering together to sit in Council that with it you may be kept in the fear of the Lord and your minds up to Christ from whence it comes Now if you do act contrary to the light which Christ Jesus hath enlightned you withall in your consciences which never changeth and make a profession of Christs words that doth hold up that which acts contrary to the light which is to be condemned with the light Therefore to the light in all your consciences I do speak that with it you may all be kept low and few words and not hasty and in the fear of the Lord and watch with the light that ye be not drawn from it to act contrary to the light in your consciences for you that do the terror of the Lord God will persue you and the sword of the Lord God is against you to hew you down as it hath done them before you which have taken counsel but not of the Lord and gathered together but not by him and so broken to pieces according to Scripture Therefore the Lord God fear and ab●●e in his will and counsel I am the light of the world and do enlighten every one that comes into the world saith Christ one he loves the light and walks in it and receives the light of life and doth not stumble and walks not in darkness and the other that hates the light his deeds are evil and he will not bring his deeds to the light because he knows his deeds be evil with the light and so he that doth the evil hates the light because his deads be evil and the light will reprove him so when the condemnation comes upon him and Judgement from God which is according to the light he knows the Judgement is just one with the light against him that hates it and acts contrary to it whose deeds be evil so he that hateth the light he hath the light and he knows his deeds to be evil with the light which Christ Jesus hath enlightned him withal And this is the condemnation the light all that hate it whose deeds be evil and act contrary to it Now all you dwelling in the light and waiting in the light to receive your Law from God which is perfect according to the light of God in every ones conscience then he that acts contrary to the light the Law of God which is perfect slays him and cuts him down and puts him to the death which is perfect according to that of God in every mans conscience which Law of God hath power and dominion over a man as long as he lives But I through the Law am dead to the Law yet we witness the Law good in its place and just upon the unjust who act contrary to the just principle in them and holy upon the unholy whose minds go from the pure light of Christ in them and act contrary to it and perfect according to the light of Christ takes hold upon that which acts contrary to it which is not perfect and to you this
