is an Abomination amongst many even to Turk and Jew even in cheating and cozening swearing and lying and open Abominations which causeth them to blaspheme the name of Christ therefore will the unresistable vengeance of God come irresistably upon you suddenly except you repent and plead no longer antiquity for your Religion seeing it is but of sin and uncleanness in which you openly live as all the heathen and profane ever did yea grosser Idolatry is not to be found amongst the sons of men than is in the Territories and Dominions of Rome this day though ye seek to paint your selves over with the name of God ye do but shew the more to every one that is not wilfully blind that ye are of Mistery Babylon the Mother of Harlots Mark that whose children are such as hold the truth in unrighteousness and have changed the glory of the incorruptible God as much as in you lyeth though his glory cannot be changed into flesh but you have perverted his true worship into a lye and make Images and prostrate your selves before them and yet say it is not Idolatry this is mistery Babylon which is now made manifest Glory Honour and Praise be to the Lord God for ever and let all the faithful say Amen for the secrets of the Whore is laid open with her Abominations and the place of her torment is prepared for her who hath thus made the Nations drunk with the Cup of her fornication out of which the Kings of the earth have been made drunk and not only have compelled the people of their Nations but others which thing will be heavy in the end if they repent not before it be too late for God is a righteous Judge who will render to every one according to their works without respect of persons time or places Therefore be wise O ye Kings be instructed O ye Judges of the Earth and serve the Lord with fear and rejoyce with trembling in your Generation and beware of persecuting of any people for that will unthrone you if ye meddle with the Throne of God which is the Consciences of men and women Therefore let it suffice you that your sword be turned against the evil-doer in the Land so will you be a praise to them that do well and blessed will you be of the Lord if ye put this in effect to wit to suppresse and expel Idolatry lying swearing drunkennesse and whoredome in the Land where ye are Rulers but if ye suffer those things to abound as they do this day in this Nation then know assuredly as the Lord God lives who hath created the Heavens and the Earth ye shall be expelled and those who shall be found more worthy than you shall be exalted in your stead though the Lord may take them from the Sheepfold as he did David and think not to stand because of your greatness and strength or by the multitude of an host Remember Nebuchadnezzar whom the Lord humbled unto the dust and made him to know that the Most High ruleth and reigneth in the Kingdomes of men Therefore ye Rulers of this Nation to you do I speak in particular I say hear and give ear and the words of my mouth shall be the words of truth and life unto you if ye receive them but if ye slight and reject them and will have none of the counsel of the Allmighty which through me is proffer'd freely unto you that ye may be warned from the evil which is to come then know assuredly that blacknesse and darknesse shall be your portion and habitation for ever and Gods dreadful face you shall never see but in judgement therefore I say give over for the Lord is raising to himself a Seed and People in this Nation which shall serve him with fear and trembling and hath purposed to establish them in peace and righteousnesse in this Land that living examples they may be unto all the Inhabitants about them and this hath the Lord determined to do in thee O France Therefore as I said ye Judges Rulers Officers Counsellors and King be ye warned as from the Lord that ye touch them not though you may have many false accusations against them and reports as people not fitting to live upon the earth as the innocent was in all Ages so reported to be as people being destructive to Law Rulers and Government and the like and enemies to the King Oh let this word be turned against these false Accusers and beware of touching the Innocent for for their sakes the Lord will rebuke Kings and he is the same as ever he was And this is a true and faithful warning and prophecy which shall shortly come to passe that when it come you may not be ignorant thereof and be left without excuse Remember Nineveh who at the preaching of Jonas repented and do ye take warning in time Consider and lay it to heart and look through the Nations ye Rulers thereof and weigh the thing seriously in your secret parts whether Nineveh or any other Nation could abound more in abomination than this Nation or that the city of Sodome or the inhabitants of Gomorrah was more in lust pride and fulnesse of bread then Paris surely is nay the like was hardly to be found or paraleld in all generations for pride hypocrisie lust deceit and murder and whatsoever is evill Therefore I say againe Be ye warned and take diligent heed that ye persecute not any whom the Lord is raising up amongst you bringing and sending amongst you to bear witnesse unto or against any thing even against the grievous Idolatry and whoredome which aboundeth amongst you and in all the Land and if ye instead of receiving their testimonies persecute and imprison them or doe them any harm better it were that a milstone were put about your necks and that ye were cast into the midst of the Sea for the Lord will avenge their innocent causes and utterly overturn their oppressors and will rebuke Kings for their sakes yea Potentates Armies Judges and Rulers as he hath done already in the Land of England and he who is mightier then the mightiest is on their parts and will rebuke and tear in pieces their adversaries for the Lord hath long born the iniquities of this Nation and his righteous Spirit hath long been grieved and he hath looked down out of his holy habitation amongst you and beholdeth your state and seeth that none of you so much as consider the cause of the needy and oppressed so as to ease their burthens but every one of you striving to maintain his own lust by cruelty fraud and oppression the like is not to be found in any Nation but the Lord will break the bonds of oppression and the oppressed shall goe free and be set at liberty to Gods endlesse praise for ever The mighty and terrible day of the Lord God is come and is at hand wherein the hearts of all shall be made manifest and accordingly shall every one
will-worship and voluntary humility and nothing to the edifying of the body and so by degrees hath crope in more and more as the dark night of apostacy came in which time Christ Jesus said would come wherein no man could work And also the Apostle saw before his decease as I said before even such a falling away in his time that he said All Asia was turned from him Likewise Peter John and Jude speak of it for John in his Revelation saw all the world wandering after the Beast and none could buy or sell but those who received the mark of the Beast yea such will be the misery of the sons of men who are wandering after him saying Who is able to make war with him And the Harlot rides upon the Beast cloathed with Scarlet with the Cup full of abomination and filthiness in her hand which hath made all Nations drunk Let him which hath wisdome read and understand and consider whether the Pope and Cardinals in Rome doth not wear her Livery without and within yea or nay are they not built upon blood and to this very day are thirsting after it if not what means their Inquisitions and secret places of murder yet they themselves will shew and tell of the place they call by the name of Amphiatar where they say the Christians were put in in former times to be destroyed with wild Beasts though the same they themselves do at this very day even to those who have the least desire after the Lord by which they come to misturst the Idolatrous way they are in and if this be perceived amongst them then presently he or she is termed under the name of an Heritick and then to the Inquisition with them where the wild bruit Beasts set about them to devour them though at first they may flatter and fawn upon them like a Dog and if they see they cannot prevail with them that way it is much if ever they escape their devouring hands and this is not unknown to many but the Lord God of Heaven and Earth is risen to make inquisition for the blood of the slain and it is not the Inquisition which shall be able to conceal it from him for he will rip it open and lay it desolate for ever so that it shall become a hiss and a by-word by all the passers by for it shall be made like their Amphiatar for ever open and free and Gods eternall Glory and Truth shall freely be declared in it with free consent every way and this will the Lord work for his own Gloryes sake and none can prevent the Lords purpose which he hath determined for all the world hath wandered after the Beast and hath given their glory and honour unto him I say notwithstanding all this the Lord will raise up to himself an holy seed which shall make war with him and overcome him his chosen ones have already read the number of his name which is the number of a man and all that rise up and joyn in war with the Beast against them woe woe will be to them for ever The Angels of the Lord are going forth with Commission from the God of Heaven to curse the Earth because of the abominations of the Inhabitants thereof Therefore O ye people be awakened and warned and seriously consider what you are a doing for of a truth woe and vengeance will be powred out upon you in an unresistable manner except ye repent speedily therefore as one who is a follower of the Lamb through tribulations do I warn you in obedience to my King and Law-giver to kisse the Son least he be angry that ye may obtain mercy in this day of love and visitation to the sons of men for the Lord hath certainly determined to reap the earth of all corruption which aboundeth and superaboundeth therein the harvest is fully ripe and long hath the Lord born and forborn and his righteous Spirit hath long been oppressed even as a Cart is pressed which is laden with sheaves therefore will he plead with all flesh with the sword and with fire which none shall be able to withstand therefore be ye warned that your souls may live And though many of them make vows in their own wills to abstain from meats and women this shall stand them in no stead for in words they say they will do this and that but being out of Gods will lust burns in their hearts they not being come to that which would subdue the evill in themselves and these are they which the Apostle speaks of They promise others liberty whilest they themselves are the servants of corruption for of what a man is overcome by the same he is brought in bondage 2 Pet. 2.19 for at best they say they are of such a Saints Order which will avail them nothing they not being sanctified themselves were it so that Saints were of several Orders and Lifes but that 's an absolute lye and a false conception and this is only to blind the minds of the simple-hearted thereby to get the more several Inheritances and fat possessions to themselves by going in several habits and going under several denominations by which policy and deceit where they have been most believed received they have got the fattest and best possessions and notwithstanding go a begging and a roving up and down and take and receive from them who have great families to maintain which thing is grievous to be born in the Land but God will judge for this hypocrisie and deceit and ease the Land of this oppression of a Truth and their lyes and feignedness shall be laid open to every eye for the Saints were not of many Orders but of one only true Order which was truth in the Inward parts which is the root and ground of Religion in which they did not shut up themselves in houses and live in idleness and eat the bread thereof which the poor laboureth hard for and purchaseth by the sweat of their brows and with it these men under a pretence of holiness feed themselves without fear and this is not the order of Saints but of belly-gods for the Apostle writing unto the Saints saith He that will not work let him not eat He being an Example unto them though he laboured in the Gospel above many yea and the care of all the Churches were upon him yet notwithstanding his own hands ministred to his necessities which is a witnesse against the idle drones of this Generation which you take for your Confessors and they pretend to have power to absolve you from your sins and are not cleansed from their own Therefore hear and consider all people who are thus kept in blindnesse and ignorance there is nothing but the pure Holy Spirit of God which is able or can forgive sins for to it only is the power committed and not unto you who live in sins And therefore be awakened out of this horrid delusion for Christ Jesus said to his Apostles Whose
yet served with corrupt mens hands and for bearing witnesse unto this Steven was stoned whose name ye adore but he is a witnesse against you and your practices herein for whilest you are observing the things before named you are but in the nature which stoned him for witnessing the end of all outward Ceremonies even of those which were true Figures and Types of the Substance which was to come and if them things were witnessed against as being unprofitable the Substance being come which was Christ may not yours much more be witnessed against as being wholly unprofitable which never were commanded nor types of any thing but of the mistery of iniquity being things of your own inventing through which you are wholly lead from the knowledge of God being meer vanities and inventions of mens hands so as you sow to your selves vanity you will have nothing else to reap in the end for the true Christians came to witnesse their bodies to be the Temples of God through the Spirit which dwelt in them which was the new creature which onely availeth for saith God I will be in them and walk in them and I will be their God and they shall be my people This is Gods Covenant with his people which Covenant standeth onely with the New Creature And again saith he Vnto this man will I have regard unto him who is of an humble and a contrite spirit and trembleth at my word And untill you come to witnesse this state God Allmighty hath no regard as to accept any thing at your hands therefore prize the new-birth and seek vigilantly after it that ye might have acceptance with God and have an entrance into his holy Kingdome for no unclean thing can enter therein therefore there is a necessity of putting off the old man with his deeds that a new may be witnessed who after God is created in righteousnesse and true holinesse and where this comes to be witnessed the mind is renewed and all old things are passed away and all things become new which is the onely and alone blessed state and this onely availeth and standeth instead in the day of tryal when the hearts of all shall be made manifest and the secrets of all judged by Jesus Christ according to the everlasting Gospel of life truth and power for God hath verily appointed a day wherein he will surely judge the world though many say and think that he delayeth his coming not considering that his long-suffering and forbearance should lead them to repentance but of a truth he is not slack as some men count slackness concerning his coming though many say or think he delayeth but his day shall overtake them as a thief in the night even in a time when they look not for him Remember the old world they were eating and drinking marrying and giving in marriage but the just man preached repentance unto them untill the overflowing stroak of Gods wrath swept them away and also just Lot whose righteous soul was dayly grieved with the unrighteous conversation of the wicked Sodomites who would not be warned but when they were told of the evil which came upon them they slighted the message and sought evilly to entreat the Messengers therefore God made them examples for Generations to come yea even to this Generation whose measure of iniquity surpasseth theirs and do you think God will spare you any more than he did them nay he will not for God bore untill they had filled up the measure of their iniquity as he doth yours now whose measure aboundeth more than any that ever yet went before you in lust pride and envy deceitfulness idleness and fulness of bread which were the sins of Sodome which crucified the Just even as you do this day dayly and hourly for it is in spirituall Sodom and Egypt where the Lord of glory is crucified Let him that readeth understand you need not a Stock or a Stone to put you in mind or the Image of a dead man to put you in mind how the Just suffered sixteen hundred years agoe if ye rightly considered for it is your wicked conversation which crucifieth him amongst you so that ye are as truly guilty of his blood as the Jews were though you keep them in oppression And these my words ye shall eternally witness if ever you come to a true conversion and fear of God for such shall come to see him whom they have pierced and mourn over him as a man mourneth over his only begotten son as saith the Prophet Therefore I declare unto you all there is not a man but is or hath been guilty of the blood of the Son of God for he is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the World and The whole world lyeth in wickedness as also saith the Apostle and it is the wickedness which slayeth the Lamb as it is written The just suffereth by the unjust Therefore repent that ye may find mercy or else his blood will be too heavy for you to bear and it will not justifie you to call him Lord Lord while the Devil reigns as Lord in you neither to call God Father while your works testifie openly to your faces that you are of your father the Devil whose works ye do for if ye were the children of God ye would do the works of God which are all righteous holy and true but that birth ye never yet knew for they who are born of God sinneth not as saith the Scripture And your praying to Mary will not serve your turns for it is only those who do the will of the Father which are accepted of him for saith Christ Jesus He that doth the will of my Father the same is my Mother Sister and Brother Mark that and consider what your invoking the Saints with vain Repetitions will availe you but only adde to your condemnation for Christ saith for every idle word a man shall give an account at the day of Judgment for though ye could say in that dreadful day Lord we have prophesied in thy name and in thy name have we cast out Devils yet consider the answer Depart from me ye cursed workers of iniquity I know you not the Lake is prepared for all such therefore consider I was sick and ye visited me not naked and ye cloathed me not I was an hungry and ye gave me no bread and if the portion of such be so dreadfull what will yours be who have cast into prison even woe and vengeance for evermore Therefore beware what you do and consider the true Christians never imprisoned any which may be a warning and an example unto you to follow that you may no further become guilty of the blood of the innocent for God will assuredly try you with these things Therefore a warning from the God of love is this unto you which if ye reject dreadfull will be the end thereof therefore in time consider This word is often in my heart towards you that you may lay it to
the hands of the wicked so that they cannot turn from their wickedness by preaching up their Masters Kingdome for term of life which thing accomplished the Devil knows he hath them sure enough because it was the sin unto death which the Apostle said should not be prayed for So people Consider the miserable captivity and bondage you are in spending all the dayes of your lives in being taught by these Deceivers and in the end you must die in your sins which is a deplorable state for the Wages of sin is death and as the Tree falls so it lyes saith the Scripture and every one shall receive according to the deeds done in the body for his servants ye are to whom ye obey whether of sin unto death or of righteousnesse unto eternall life So read and consider and be no longer deceived God will not be mocked Such as you sow such shall ye reap and money cannot buy you an immortal possession neither can corruption purchase incorruption as your wicked leaders make you in effect to believe Thus hath the mistery of Iniquity and the man of sin fully wrought and revealed who by all deceiveablenesse of unrighteousnesse deceived the Nations one after this manner and another after that manner but his subtile wiles hath wrought the deepest amongst men under the name of Christians that thereby he might the easier deceive the hearts of the simple who have any desire in them after the true and living God and for these his instruments in this work he hath imposed the most subtile and craftiest men in all generations since the power of his working thereby the more to amaze the people in saying are not these the learned men are not these the Orthodox men and if these do not know how should we know who are illiterate and unlearned every way and by this his deceiveable working hath he possessed the hearts of the people with a lye for the wisdome of the wise men of this world know not the things of God neither can the naturall man discern the things of the Spirit for they are spiritually discerned therefore saith the Apostle Ye see your Calling Brethren how that not many wise men after the flesh not many mighty not many noble are called for God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the mighty and base things of the world and things which are despised hath God chosen yea and things which are not to bring to nought things that are that no flesh might glory in his presence but of him are ye in Christ Jesus who of God hath made him unto us wisdome righteousnesse sanctification and redemption that according as it is written he that glorieth let him glory in the Lord 1 Cor. 1. 26-31 yea and God taketh the wise in their own craft and turneth the wisdome of the wise backward because the foolishnesse of God is wiser then men and the wisdome of man is foolishnesse with God and Christ Jesus also saith I thank thee Father that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent and hast revealed them unto babes and sucklings Mark God hath even revealed his secrets unto babes and sucklings in which God doth perfect his praises and this is marvelous in the eyes of many And also the Apostle James saith God hath chosen the poor of this world rich in faith and heirs of the Kingdome Friends this is far from the Romish Doctrine who exalt learning above the Spirit of God in whom is the candle of wisdome and in saying this I doe them no wrong for it appeareth evidently every way doe they not make use of a sort of men which they call Jesuits and Monks whom they esteeme the most to go to and fro abroad in the Nations and by their subtilty any way exalt their own horn through which means much blood hath been shed and grievous disorders amongst many hath been their fruits and effects will be witnesse enough for these things This is far from the example of Christ Jesus who made choyce of simple poor Fisher-men to send forth in his work even such who knew not the letter as saith the Scriptures and the wisdome of the Jews in those dayes had the simple hearted who believed in derision esteemed them accursed because they knew not the Law and asked if any of the Rulers did believe for ye may see preaching of Christ was esteemed a thing very much below them yet through the foolishness of this preaching as it was accounted of by the wisdome of man it pleased the Lord to save many for the Cross of Christ was preached which to the Jews was a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishnesse who sought after wisdome in those dayes but to every one that believed it was the power of God unto salvation as hath been said for he that will be truly wise unto salvation must truly become a fool as saith the Apostle that he may be made wise and saith Christ Except ye be converted and become as little children ye cannot enter into the Kingdome of God And this was witnessed by Paul who according to the learning and wisdome of this world surpassed many in his generation who was brought up at the feet of Gamaliel yet accounted it but dung and drosse that he might win Christ though according to the flesh he might glory above many Where is the wise where is the disputer hath not God appointed the the foolish things to confound them yea verily and shall for ever The little stone which is cut out of the mountain without hands which is spoken of in Daniel shall become a great mountain and cover the whole earth and blessed are they who shall fall upon it that they may be broken for if it fall upon them it will grind them to powder be they never so mighty or never so learned and never so prudent they shall never be able to stand before him Therefore all people submit and come under the banner of his love which is stretched forth over your heads for if you doe not you must come under his iron rod which will dash you to pieces for reign over all he must for ever and evermore though Gog and Magog set themselves in battel against him yea no weapon formed against him shall prosper for their great grength shall be turned into confusion for ever the Lord God of Heaven and Earth hath determined it whose will and purpose none shall be able to prevent though the Heathen may rage and the people imagine a vain thing yet all shall be in vain for God will set his Son upon his holy hill of Sion to reign over all for ever whose right alone it is and for his sake he will rebuke Kings Therefore blessed shall they be who resist not his glorious coming though Satan may have power a while to kill some of his followers and cast others into prison to
be judged therefore I say again and again be ye warned how ye touch or meddle with any who shall turn to the Lord in this the day of his eternall power for they will be such as will in the power and love be made to deny all deceit and flattery which aboundeth amongst you and if for so doing you cause them to suffer wrath shall be your portion and augmented amongst you even upon your own heads for the Lord hath purposed that his own seed shall be set at liberty to live and reign over all deceit and deceivable works for ever and this will he doe to the utter confusion of all who shall oppose him And thou seed of the most high God in this nation lift up thy head for thy Redeemer draweth neere to deliver thee though thou lyest low in the deeps yet will his owne arm make way for thee to come forth as it did in the days of old he will rend the vail of Egyptian darknesse and dismount the charriots of thy fierce persecutors so as they shall never be able to overtake thee yea he will divide the waters of the Egyptian Sea and cause thee to goe through as on dry land in which thy enemies shall be overwhelmed for ever and ever yea the waves of his wrath shall cover their heads and they shall be drowned in the bottomlesse deeps of utter confusion in thy sight and a song of praises shall be put into thy mouth even as the song of Moses thou tender lamb and thou shalt bear away the spoil of thine enemies and though after all this thine incounters may be many ere thou obtain the promised land yet fear not thou worm the Lord God Almighty taketh thy part who will be with thee in the fire and in the water my soul hath partaken with thee of thy pangs and thy bruises and fore oppressions and to this day doe I suffer with thee and have true experience of thy Redeemer that liveth and surely will deliver thee though thou lyest in the deepest deeps and no eye pitieth thee or hath compassion on thee though thou art as a silly worm troden under foot of every one though thy enemies make long furrows over thy back yet be thou comforted thy God hath vowed thy deliverance and it hastneth apace thy possession is prepared in a goodly heritage for in a pleasant Land shall thy lot be Though Esau may seek thy precious life and Ishmael mock thee and the sons of Anack set themselves against thee yea and Balaam seek inchantments against thee and Moab tempt and strive to lay a stumbling block before thee and the sons of the mighty even the sons of Anack possesse thy land and seek to keep thee out by their mighty strength yea though all Nations should joyn in one to prevent the decree of the Father yet shall it be all in vain for thy Redeemer liveth even the mighty God who is the Holy One of Israel who will grind them to powder Oh thou afflicted worm thine enemies are many and that my soul knoweth right well therefore am I made willing to take a part with thee knowing that also thy deliverer is mightier then the mightiest of them before whom all Nations are but as the drop of a bucket or as stubble therefore none shall be able to prevent his purpose concerning thy deliverance thou innocent one and beloved of thy God to whom all his promises are Yea and Amen who hath promised and vowed thy deliverance though it be to the destruction of all flesh and wo wo will be unto them who shall arise up against thee to hinder thy passage into the land of rest The Lord hath bowed down his ear from his holy habitation unto the cry of thine oppressions and his bowels are moved with compassion for thee and as thou hast been a long sufferer in the earth so shalt thou have dominion over all even in thy God for he will rend the vail of Egyptian darknesse so shall many come to see and desire thy beauty and desire after thy presence even as a spouse desireth the presence of her bridegroome after her first espousall yea unto thee oh Seed shall the gathering of the Nations be and the Kings of the Earth shall bring their glory and honour unto thee and Crowned shalt thou be with the Dominion of thy God for evermore the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it and will hasten the day of thy Redemption though through envy thou hast been sold into Egypt and esteemed as a Bond-slave and put under in the dungeon because thou canst not consent unto the abominations and unto the love of men yet thy God shall raise thee over all to reign in dreadful dominion for ever and thine enemies shall be made to come bending unto thee yea even the sons of those who had thee in derision shall be laid low at thy feet Thou greatly Beloved and begotten of my Father thy beauty hath overcome my heart I am one with thee in the deepest of afflictions and so am made willing to suffer with thee until thou art by the outstretched Arm and mighty Power of thy God raised up to possess the Gates of thine enemies the only bough thou art whose branches shall run over yea a double portion hath my God for thee in store though at present thy visage is more marred than the face of any man so that the sons of men can see no beauty in thee that they should desire thee yet when the measure of thy sufferings is up the splendor of thy beauty shall pierce through and amaze the hearts of many for it shall shine as the Stars of the Firmament so that only thy life shall be desired in the whole earth and thou shalt be the only desired of all Nations because thou hast been the only rejected therefore thou shalt over all reign for evermore Oh thou Holy One though thou hast not had whereon to lay thine head amongst the Kingdomes of men yet it is thy right only to reign therefore shall overturnings overturnings be until thou art raised and hast taken the Dominions of the whole earth for to that end wast thou brought forth out of the bosome of thy father thou art the Stone which the builders have rejected but thou shalt become the head of the Corner and all who do rise up against thee shall fall because no weapons formed against thee shall prosper and every tongue which riseth up against thee thou shalt condemn this is thy heritage because of the righteousness of thy God a Sword and Bow is prepared for thee to go forth to battel and thou shalt sheath it in the flesh of Kings and mighty men of the earth for thou art the Battle-Ax of the Lord and with thee will he beat Nations to powder therefore blessed shall he be that shall joyn unto thee in this the day of thy controversie with the Sons of men for if they receive thee not but stand
