everlasting Dominion and his kingdome is from generation to generation So that man is loudly called upon to come in and with all chearfulnesse and readinesse to submit himself unto the Government and rule of th● Prince of the Kings of the Earth THE WISDOM OF WHOSE THRONE SHAL DECIDE ALL CONTROVERSIES And great will be the Peace of this Day when the Beast and the Fals-Prophet is taken in opposing the Lamb with their Armies and cast alive into a lake of Fire Rev. 19.19 20. THE DECLARATION AS in the sight of that glorious Majesty JEHOVAHNISSI THE LORD OUR PROTECTOR being assured by the grace of God That the kingdomes of this world are of right the Inheritance of our Lord Jesus And being by the workings of his holy spirit and the Power of his love through the quickening of the new-man exceedingly stirred up as called upon this Bottome and hope having for many moneths waited for the day of the power of Jesus Christ And for a willing people which might take pleasure in her stones and favour the dust thereof To follow the Lambe in the Dispensations of his Judgements Withall considering That the stones of the sanctuary are powred out in the head of every street and the precious sons of Zion comparable to fine gold are esteemed as earthen pitchers The blood and lives of Saints poured forth The dishonour of the Name and glory of God so deare unto us The stop of that work and cause so eminently owned by God and sealed unto by the blood of thousands of our dear brethren in the High places of the Field Our bowels are troubled and we have waited for his salvation all the day long And being also throughly convinced of the Apostacy Hypocrisie Murders and Treason of OLIVER CROMWELL THE HEAD OF THIS APOSTASIE and those that are with him We were encouraged though but a Worm yet not without hopes of being raised up to be Instrumentall to Thrash the Mountains According to our Faith and hope and call from the world from the Earth from among Men to publish our Principle to the World That our Brethren in holes and corners in the severall parts of the Nation in all the Churches of the Saints might hold up their heads because of Redemption that draweth nigh That all men might see their Interest and concern as involved as wrapped up as comprehended in the Interest and Cause we Pleade for the onely and blessed POTENTATE That a STANDARD might be set up and displayed for all Saints that hunger after the Truth That wait for Justice and Righteousnesse That it might dwell in the Wildernesse and remain in the fruitfull field For all men for every poor heart that desires to stand up for Equity for Liberty for Deliverance from yoaks and Bonds whether in the Army that hath kept a good Conscience that hath not shared in the Apostacy and and wickednesse That hath not said a Confederacy with those that say a Confederacy that have not sold themselves to work wickednesse Or any others that may say God speed And also to ●ppear publickly with Councel Estates Lives Liberties Families Relations and all most Dear to us in this way as a Sacrifice and Offering prepared for the Lord Jesus who hath Redeemed Justified and Sanctified us by his blood hath made us unto our God Kings and Priests that we may r●ign with him on the earth and is made unto us of the Father Wisdome Righteousnesse Sanctification and Redemption And if he shall give us our Lives for a prey as those that will loose them shall save them though we are therein with trembling in this Evill and Adulterous generation We shall yet think it our duty having hear no continuing City but as wanderers as Pilgrims as strangers as having nothing yet possessing all things To give them up in the high places of the field as for his Navie his Kingdome so for his whole flock that all Saints weak as well as strong poor needy and foolish That have received the Adoption can cry ABA and are sealed with the Holy spirit of promise may together grow up unto an holy Temple in the Lord As naturally caring for the well-fare of all the Lambs of the whole household of God and with them for the Creation as all having a place in our hearts That all may be delivered into the glorious liberties of the Sons of God for whom and to whom we hope the grace of God given to us will help us to witnesse a good witnesse And we are herein the more bold in the zeal of the Lord of hosts in the Power of his might in the Authority and Majesty of the holy and blessed spirit as knowing That whether w● sleep or wake we shall live with him Whether we live or die we shall stand in our Lot in the blessed inheritance with the Saints in light at the end of the dayes If sown in corruption yet raised in incorruption If sown in dishonour yet raised in Glory If sown in weaknesse yet raised in Power If we shall not tast of death though the cup be alwayes sweet to us as we are in Christ and live the life of faith and as for him Waiting upon him in the way of his Judgements till our Lord shall appear y●t changed in a moment in the twinckling of an eye and made like unto his glorious body Then to us to die is gain and to live is gain so that tribulation nor distress● or persecution or Famine or nakednesse or perils or sword neither Death nor Life nor Angels nor Principalities nor Powers nor things present nor things to come nor height nor depth nor any other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus Nay we are more then conquerours through him that loved us Wherefore in the Name of that dreadfull Majesty having born our Testimony and Witnesse against the Apostacy of this Army and their General so long so loud forwarning them of the Vengeance of the Lord and of his Temple and the judgements which God will execute upon Babylon and them as a part thereof and degenerated into that Mystery of Iniquity that Puddle of finne that bloody City Wee doe Invite and Call the Lords People That hath laid hold of this glorious Hope That are upon their Watch that keep their Garments of what Form Opinion or Judgement so ever Yea in the tender bowels of our Saviour we beseech you Brethren laying aside all particular Opinions and matters of difference as we have done ours To come in and be united with us in this Bottome this blessed Cause and Administrations of the Kingdome of the Sonne of man and the Saints wherein not onely the Father Son and Spirit are concerned withall the Angels And all Dead and Living Saints of this Faith of this hope That glorious company Noah Abraham Isaac Jacob David Job Daniel Peter Paul all the Patriarcks Prophets Apostles Martyrs Saints Men the Creation Heaven and Earth but also as that Rock the close Chambers The City of Refuge the hiding place in the Day of Indignation and Vengeance your Persons Lives Estates Families Wives and Children will be herein Blessed Preserved and Delivered For as in the womb of this cause there is the Man-childe so in the bowels thereof there is choise mercies for all for the inward and outward man health strength and peace in so much that even whilest we are at wars with the Draggon Beast and False-Prophet we shall be at peace among our selves Besides above all and in all having the Peace of God which passeth all understanding There is also under this BANNER in this Camp in this Cause preservation and protection for all civill and honest men who are also invited to eat the flesh of Kings Captaines and Mighty men So those that have simplicity and integrity in the Army we warn them of the vengance to come that they oppose not the Lamb that they do not yet like mercinary men hired to shed blood stay in this Prophane Apostate and Backsliding Army but that they submit unto the Lord Jesus and his BANNER and come and List themselves with us under his command who is coming forth conquering and to conquor And forasmuch as it is the day of the Lords vengance for the controversie of Zion and blood of Saints and his Portion and Inheritance And being perswaded that the Lord has now a controversie and war with the powers of Babilon in these Nations and withall those that are guilty of or engaged in this Apostacie whether in Church Army or Common-Wealth as wel as with OLIVER CROMWEL the head of this Apostacie We do now in the name and Authority of the LORD KING-JESVS call upon all the Lords people our Brethren Sisters and Friends with every one that professeth the name of God that are yet in Babilon in one respect or another either in Church Common-Wealth upholders and supporters of that state or Army to come out of her to come from amongst them least partaking of her sins you also partake of her plagues For the Lord commandeth now every where to Repentance Therefore hearken to the Gospel of the Kingdome and of repentance which saith fear God and give glory to him for the houre of his Judgement is come THE END ERRATA Page 8. line 24
