following Words Col. Axtel's Speech at Tyburn October 12 1660. MR. Sheriff I am now as you see come to the Place of Execution according to my Sentence I desire your Leave that I may speak Freely and without Interruption first to this People and then to God for it is the last I shall speak in this World and I hope it will redound to your Account Mr. Sheriff's Reply Sir you know what the Court prohibited you to speak and what was spoken at the Bar of the Court was there desired therefore 't is needless to repeat it here I hope you will keep to the present Business that concerns you and not go out into Impertinencies and because you have but a little Time spend it to your best Advantage and the Good of the People and then you shall not be interrupted Or to the same Effect Col. Axtel begins I say the very Cause for which I have engaged is contained in this Book of God having the Bible in his Hand both in the Civil and Religious Rights of it which I leave to you giving the Book to Mr. Knowles You see a Dead Man Living and yet I hope I shall Live to all Eternity through the Mediation of Jesus Christ the Mediator of the Covenant of Free-Grace I must truly tell you that before these late Wars it pleased the Lord to call me by his Grace through the Work of the Ministry and afterwards keeping a Day of Humiliation in Fasting and Prayer with Mr. Symon Ash Mr. Love Mr. Woodcock and other Ministers in Laurence-Lane they did so clearly State the Cause of the Parliament that I was fully convinced in my own Conscience of the Justness of the War and thereupon engaged in the Parliament Service which as I did and do believe was the Cause of the Lord I ventred my Life freely for it and now Die for it Then Mr. Sheriff said to this Purpose Sir remember your self Col. Axtel proceeds and after the Work of the Lord was done in England my Lot cast me in the Service of Ireland and I thank the Lord I was serviceable to the English Nation in that Countrey and have discharged my Duty fully according to the Trust committed to me there As for the Fact for which I now suffer it is for Words only for Words and but for Words and the Sentence is already reversed in my own Conscience and it will be reversed by Jesus Christ by and by I pray God from the very Bottom of my Soul to forgive all that have had any Hand in my Death both Witnesses and Jury and the Court that passed Sentence for considering the Doctrine of our Lord Jesus Christ as he hath laid it down Matth. 5. 44. It hath been said of Old Time Love your Neighbours and Hate your Enemies but I say unto you Love your Enemies and pray for them that hate and despitefully use you that you may be the Children of your Father which is in Heaven I desire according to this Doctrine from the Bottom of my Heart that God would give them true Repentance and not lay their Sin to their Charge nor my Blood which by God's Law and Man's I think could not justly have been brought here to suffer But I bless God I have some comfortable Assurance that I shall be imbraced in the Arms of Christ and have Cause to hope that his Spirit shall carry my Soul into the Father's Hands And if the Glory of this Sunshine be so great the Sun then shining Bright how much more is the Glory of the Son of God who is the Sun of Righteousness I think it convenient to give you some Account of my Faith I believe all Things written in the Old and New Testament in the Principles and Doctrine of a Believers Faith I believe the Blessed Ordinances of Christ that it is our Duty to hear the Word preached to seek unto God in Prayer and to perform Family Duties and to walk in the Communion of Saints and for my own Part I am a Member of a Congregation which I judge to be the Way of Christ and were it for that only I were to Die I could Witness to it which is a Company of Men Born again by his Grace that walk in the Ways of Christ Blameless and Harmeless I Believe Jesus Christ died for Poor Sinners of whom I am Chief as the Apostle Paul saith This is a faithful Saying and worthy of all Acceptation that Christ Jesus came into the World to save Sinners of whom I am Chief And if the Apostle might say so much more may I My Friends and Countreymen I have Reason to bewail my own unprofitable Life having been very unfruitful unto the People of the Lord the Lord knows I have much fault upon my Heart were it not for the Blood of Christ that cleanseth and washeth me according to his Promise saying I loved you and washed away your Sins in my own Blood for there is no Remission of Sins without the Blood of Christ I desire you all to loath and cast off Sin it were better to Suffer than to Sin it is better to Die than to Sin nothing could grieve our Saviour our but Sin and therefore have a Care of that You and I must meet one Day at the Bar of Christ and the Son of God shall be our Judge for God hath committed all Judgment to the Son That all Men should Honour the Son as they Honour the Father This Day is a resemblance of that Day therefore be serious Beg as much Good to your Immortal Souls as I expect to enjoy by and by I beseech you beg of God that he would save your Souls and omit no Opportunity through the Strength of the Lord to Believe and put your Trust in the Lord Jesus Christ be sure to Labour after Assurance of your Interest in him or else you will be of all Men most miserable for I of Men were most miserable if I had not believed To see the Goodness of the Lord in the Land of the Living Blessed be the Lord that brings me into this State let the Way or Means be what it will it is God's Sovereignty who made these Creatures to dispose of them how he pleaseth and God hath ordained this Death for me from all Eternity The Lord Christ often prayed Thy Will be done this is the Lord's Will He hath numbred my Days and my Times are in his Hand Many seek the Ruler's Favour but every ones Judgment is from the Lord When Pilate said unto Christ Knowest thou not that I have Power to Crucifie thee Christ answered him Thou couldst have no Power against me except it were given thee from above Therefore I acknowedge the Righteous Hand of God he is Righteous but I am Sinful Therefore will I bear God's Indignation because I have sinned against him It is said of Jesus Christ That for the Joy set before him he endured the Cross and despised the Shame and is set down at the
