A56033 The hour of God's judgments come and coming upon the wicked world shewing how iniquity will prove the ruin of all people, who do not repent and turn to God, whilst yet they have time : with an exhortation in the love of God to people of all nations, to cease to do evil, and to forsake those provoking sins, that hath kindled the wrath of God, that the judgments now threatning many nations may be turned away. Parke, James, 1636-1696. 1690 (1690) Wing P373; ESTC R7298 20,874 26

and is everlasting that you may possess that and be established in that and not have on your own Righteousness in your vain Imaginations therefore will the Righteous God by his appearance in Spirit convince the world of Judgment also and the Prince of this World is judged and the World 's corrupt and erroneous judgment through the appearance of the Spirit of Truth being received it discovereth the World's judgment to be contrary to the judgment of Truth and how the wrong judgment got up in the world that so People may see the deceit and darkness of this World's judgment and that they who are in it have no judgment in their goings such have no right divine or heavenly judgment but are in the Prince of this World 's dark judgment that turneth against the Righteous Prince and his Righteous Judgments which are all true just and faithful And the Prince of Darkness with his fallen Wisdom and Judgment by the coming of the Lord in judgment shall be judged and condemned by that which convinceth the World of Judgment for what but the Spirit of Truth can judge the Spirit of Error and what but the righteous judgment of the Spirit of Truth that bringeth Man and Woman to see their deceit falshood and hypocrisie to judge it down and to save out of it And indeed what but want of the sence and feeling of this that causeth many to stumble at that that is good even the pure Light of the Lord Jesus Christ and some do fall and rise not again but fall into mischief and violent dealing and it pursueth them and cometh upon them in the hour of God's Judgments the Inhabitants of the Earth will learn Righteousness And what but the want of the judgment of Truth and Righteousness is the cause that Error so long in the world hath been taken and passed for Truth and Truth hath been taken for Error and condemned for it People calling good evil and evil good putting Light for Darkness and Darkness for Light And therefore by the judgment of this world it being dark blind and erroneous from Age to Age hath the Wicked been justified and how have men endeavoured in most of the Governments of this World to take away the Righteousness of the Righteous from them having judged rather according to outward appearance then given Righteous Judgment in matters and Causes of Differences in Religion and the worship of God but such as are in the judgment of Truth and Righteousness neither can nor will do so but speak of things and judge with Righteous Judgment Now the Spirit of Truth being received and continued in it quickens the Soul and giveth Spiritual Life to them that were dead in Sins and Trespasses against God therefore it ought not to be vexed grieved or rebelled against as it hath been to the great provocation of the Mogh high God and kindling the fierce Wrath of a merciful and long-suffering God who is slow to wrath and of great kindness how hath he been forgotten and no more minded by many than if he were no All-seeing God but rather People have thought him like themselves who are wicked as if God would not take any notice of their Ways and Doings neither set their Sins and abominable Practices in order before them and punish them for the same with a sore destruction who do not receive nor obey the Gospel-offers of Salvation of Peace and Good-will towards mankind in general Oh! how hath my Soul been often afflicted within me because of the Wickedness of the Wicked disebedient and ungodly Men and Women to see them even sowing to the Flesh that hath so much appeared both in Papists and Protestants so called they having not minded the former Mercies nor Judgments that came from God in love to them care for their Souls well-fare and that they might learn Righteousness when his Judgments were in the Earth that People might not utterly perish in their gain-saying and that his future Judgments threatning might be turned away But Oh! how have you sinned and provoked God more and more with greater and greater Evils What will it avail any of you to come before the Lord or to draw night to him with their Tongues and Lips whilst your Hearts are afar off from him and gone a Whoring from him after your Idols set up in your Hearts or whether any Idol of Silver Gold any Creature or outward thing which can save no man or woman's Soul nor is able to hide or deliver you in the day of God's Wrath and Indignation against a wicked and untoward Generation ought not to be put away because of the blackness of such Now Desolation Perplexity Wo and great distress of Nations hasteneth and is even ready to come upon many People and Nations but especially Nations and Peoples that God hath loved and done most for and most appeared in by the Light of his glorious Gospel of Grace and Truth that the same have rejected sinned against and walked contrary to such will the Lord shew most displeasure against and punish most severely when his Hand is lifted up to smite hew down and thin the People and to bring down the abominable Pride and Haughtiness of mankind in all Nations for he will make all Nations tremble and bow before him Astonishment Fear and Trouble on every side will appear when the Righteous Judge will plead with all Flesh in the way of his Judgments being wroth and cometh to punish the Inhabitants of the Earth for their Iniquity Who shall stand before him or who shall stop him or prevent the Execution of his Wrath upon the Ungodly Therefore O all ye wicked ungodly of the Earth be ye warned be ye warned Repent Repent and come to a Godly Sorrow for all your evil wayes and doings and turn to the Lord with your Hearts rent for what will the renting of your Garments profit you whilst your Hearts are not rent nor broken before the Lord but you remain as whole in your Sins as ever you were and your Hearts hardened thereby more than ever Now there is no other way for People of all Nations to appease the Wrath of God and turn away his Judgments threatning them for Sin but for all wicked People to take warning in time by former Warnings Judgments and Calamities and what Nation is there in the Earth where God's Voice is not heard in Judgment when his Goodness Mercy and Favours are abused and sleighted for before God punisheth not in his fierce Wrath. And all you that would escape Miseries and Calamities feel and bear the Indignation of the Lord inwardly for Sin and Transgression Put away the evil of your wayes and doings from before his Eyes who hath an all-seeing Eye and seeth all the Wayes and Doings of all Men and Women both High and Low Rich and Poor in every Nation throughout the World And now the Hand of the Lord is lifted up in Judgment and the Lord is smiting the
limmit and turn them as it pleaseth him therefore all ought to look unto him and be instructed by him in order to Eternal Life Happiness and Salvation and to be delivered by him from outward Judgments and Wrath to come from the Almighty God and all ought to dread and fear his holy Name to believe really and trust therein for his Name he will exalt and cause every Knee to Bow and Tongue to Confess to it O all People upon the Face of the Earth stand in awe and sin not commune with your own Hearts and be still be still and know that the Eternal God who is God from everlasting to everlasting will exercise great severity and plead with the Wicked in his Wrath and Indignation when his Goodness Mercy and Forbearance is sleighted and abused by renewing Transgression upon Transgression and adding Sin to Sin that hath brought upon many People and Nations God's fierce Wrath to the depopulating many fair flourishing Cities Countries where Pride Debauchery and Hellish Cruelty aboundeth to bring down their Pride and vain Glory and to shake the Foundations of the Earth and the Heavens also to make way for that which cannot be shaken which shall remain notwithstanding any attempts which are or may be made to overthrow and rout it out of any Kingdom or Nation by any Prince or People whatsoever which will be but an Addition to the manifold Sins and Trespasses that God will bring his Judgments upon Nations and sorely punish People for if they do not repent whilst 't is called to day Terror upon Terror Loss upon Loss Perplexity upon Perplexity Trouble upon Trouble will come upon People in all Nations when God shall plead with them in the way of his Judgments by the Sword by the Famine and Pestilence but the Wicked then want that supporting Hand of the Lord whereby he supports bears up and strengthens his People that fear him that however it be such are at rest and peace with God Now the Wicked who work wickedness and are cruel Enemies against God and his People he will ease him of his Enemies and avenge him of his Adversaries tho' never so strongly consident in an Arm of Flesh or Carnal Weapons prepared for Battel for that strength is little to the Lord 's great Power and strength and surely it will be but a vain thing in any King or Prince on Earth to withstand the Lord's Almighty Power What are the Armies on Earth to they Armies in Heaven What is any Camp on Earth to the Camp of ●he Lord of Hosts who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords And hath not the Lord Legions of Angels at his command to do his Pleasure What Earthly force or strength can incounter them or cause them to desert the doing of the Will of God which he gives them in charge to perform saithfully And when any Angel hath a Vial of God's Wrath to be poured forth who can stay or hinder it from taking its Effect Then We to the wicked and ungodly Men and Women and Wo to all Ealfe-Hearted Treacherous-Deaiers Dissemblers Temporizers Truce-Breakers Ealse-Aecusers and Despisers of them who are good who refuse the Appearance of the Lord and shall so continue in obstinate Rebellion against God and hating to be reformed from that which at last brings ruin and great desolation in the World And now many Houses will be left dsolate without Inhabitant in all Nations where there is or may be a Seat of War and the Sword Famine and Pestilence will be seen in many Countries more or less and sweep away many People out of this present World Husbands from Wives and Wives from Husbands Parents from Children and Children from Parents many Women will be made Widows and Children Fatherless because of the crying Sins and horrible Abominations in most Nations of the Earth committed against him that gave them their being will desolation come how many make a God of their Bellies glory in their shame and mind Earthly things and what end can such who remain so but expect destruction All you that have peirced do peirce the Lord by your wicked works prepare prepare to meet him look upon him whom you have peirced and mourn over him let your Feasting be turned into Fasting and Mourning and your Laughter into Heaviness and bitter Lamentation give not rest to your Eyes nor slumber to your Eye lids till you find out a sure and safe Habitation and resting place in Christ Jesus forsake all your pleasures in Sin and seriously consider that they are but for a season your Digniy Glory Honour and Pleasures of this World are not lasting nor its Riches durable and they fly away they will shortly leave you and you the world you must dye and go hence and after Death come to Judgment Therefore People of all ranks and degres in this World take heed of rushing into Evil as you have done in times past but without delay learn to do well learn Righteousness whilst God's Judgments are in the Earth that if possible you may yet escape those heavy Judgments and Plagues which will come upon the Wicked and Ungodly who then are found ungodly they will reap the Fruit of their own doings But if the Spirit of Grace still strive with thee Man and Woman their is left some hope of Salvation and so be awakned to stand up from the dead and thy mind turned to God from Darkness and the Devil's Temptations and Snares where they are prepared and the Enemy layeth his Snares secretly in the dark Night he catcheth and holdeth fast multitudes of all Nations captive Mind the Light of Christ the Light of Life by which you may all come to see your way out of this Captivity and obtain the freedom and liberty out of this bondage and slavery to Sin and Satan and by Christ Jesus know absolute and real Redemption through his Blood shed as a Sacrifice for your Sins and that it effectually redeems you from the power of Hell and Death that you may not dye in your Sins but live to God hating of Sin and Evil all your dayes The appearance of God in the Spirit wait for the knowledge of that will truly convince you all of your Sins of your Righteousness and of Judgment of Sin because you do not really believe in the Son of God although you profess him long have talked of him also heard of him by the hearing of the Ear yet despising and wondering at his appearance as not worthy to be minded or regarded by you therefore how many are found rejecting that appearance of God in the Spirit that secretly smites checks and convinceth them of their Sins which Spirit also convinceth the World of Righteousness being wrong A Righteousness of your own you have gone about to establish and would establish which God will convince you of and lead you out of by his own Spirit and that will acquaint you with God's Righteousness that which is really of him
