R. London Printed for Thomas Simmons 1661. I have a long time kept silence now will I write that I may be eased I will declare that I may be unburthened O You professors the Lord God in measure hath shewed me your states and conditions which is very bad and dangerous for you to go on in O you are all of you poasting the very way to Destructon a black day hangs over your heads you are all of you as people in the dark you are seeking the way of the Lord where it is not to be found O your wayes and doings are not good they are not according to the Truth of the Living God you have ayrie light vain spirits you speak of the things you know not you are like people who are dreaming of things and when the sleep is over behold it was not so you have gotten the shew or shadow of truth but the Substance you know not you are in the many wayes where no true peace is to be found but Rents and Divisions you have chosen lying vanities and you go on in the imaginations of your own hearts chusing that which the Lord hath no pleasure in but his Righteous Soul is vexed even from day to day O you barren Trees you cumber the ground leaves are found on you but no fruits at all The Lord God will shake off your Leaves and your Branches shall wither you shall have nothing left to cover your selves withal the very foundation shall be shaken whereon you stand then may you wish that the Mountains or Hills could hide you from the Wrath of the Lord God he will speedily avenge himself upon all the workers of Iniquity Therefore you stout-hearted men and women leave off doing that which is evil and repent make no delay for the time is short the day of the Lord God is at hand wherein all your wayes words works and actions are to be tryed of what profession so ever you are of the Lord will visit you he will prove all your wayes by Fire and there is nothing shall be able to stand in that day but that which is pure of God which hath known the day of burning and purifying by fire of such the second death shall have no power but all Professions which are out of the life and power of the truth of the living God such I say shall perish and die the Lord hath no pleasure in them they are as a loathsome thing which hath an ill savour in his nostrils O you Professors your many long prayers the Lord hath no regard unto your holy Sabbath Daies and your solemn Feast-daies are as an Abominable thing the Lord hath no pleasure in them they are no more to him then if you offered Swines flesh or did cut off a Doggs neck the Lord is even wearied with your Sacrifices your hearts are unclean before him read Cain the Murderer which slew his Brother the just Abel who was born after the Spirit I say Cain which slew the just he brought also a Sacrifice and offered it unto the Lord even as Abel did whom the Lord had regard unto but unto Cain and to his off ring the Lord had no regard for the same Nature which slew the just one I say that same Nature can offer Sacrifices the same Nature which went out into the Transgression which was the first Nature I say the same Nature can Pray and sing and speak many great swelling Words but this the Lord hath no regard unto O why will you die why will you die Why will you stand out any longer Why will you put the day afar off Are you resolved through wilfulness to die in your sins hath not the Lord set good and evil before your eyes and will you still chuse the evil and despise the good O you Professors of the Town of Waymouth the Lord hath had a tender pitty towards you O your warnings hath been many by the Lords Servants and hand-maids but you have made it as a leight thing and you have called the Lords Messengers and Servants the Devils and some have said that the Devil sent them but the day will come when many of you shall say be made to confess that many of you have been warned from the Lord out of their mouths and many shall stand as witnesses in the day of God when his wrath shall be revealed against the unrighteousnesse of every man and woman I say in that day many shall stand as living witnesses against you because the Lord hath warned many of you out of their mouths although you have despised the reproof of the Lord and cast his Law and his Counsel behind your backs O may it not justly be said to you as the Lord said to a people in the daies of old because you would not receive my Counsel nor regard my repoof therefore the Lord said to that people he would laugh at their calamities and mock when fear cometh upon them Awake awake you who are asleep in security I say awake and come forth out of your graves the Lord our God is risen he hath sounded his Alarm to the Nations he hath uttered his voice to the ends of the Earth the remote Islands hath heared his sound the graves are opened and many dead bodies are raised to sing prayses to the Lord for ever and ever And now is the Lords own chosen remnant to be gathered in and now is he making up of his Jewels with whom he will dwell and he is chusing of a Peculiar people who shall worship him in spirit out of all Shews and Shadows Forms Customes and Traditions of men And all Forms and Customes and Shadows of things shall be laid wast I say it shall be laid wast the Lord God will do it his own mouth hath spoken it the day is at hand wherein our God will work Wonders I say the day is at hand wherein our God will work Wonders amongst the Children of men and amongst all that dwell on the Earth will he make known his Arm of strength and his Power shall be seen and his Miracles shall be made manifest to the view of all the Inhabitants of the Earth Babylons Merchants shall trade no more in that day their lying devinations shall cease the Lord will raise up Pastors and Teachers after his own heart such as
