they are said to be witnesses to his soul even the Father holy Ghost and Word which is all but I the Lord of hosts witnessing to them that I make forth my self unto them that they are mine and the three that bear record in earth the Spirit Water and Bloud and all agree in one the Spirit is the Lord and the Water the water of life mentioned to proceed from the throne and the Bloud is the Bloud of I the Lord of hosts and so all these three that witness in the earth which is the bodies of men and women to whom I have made forth my self is I the Lord of hosts witnessing that I am theirs and so sealing them up to be mine and those whom I have and will make the water of life to run from them that is my self so to over-power them that I may appear to be all and in all and so will I have the glory saith the Lord of hosts for the time is now at hand these Scriptures shall be fulfilled and there shall be no more curse there shall not be any wicked flesh or sin that shall hinder my servants from the injoyment of me saith I the Lord of hosts but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it There shall be no power to rule and domineer in my City where I rule which Citie is my sons and daughters but I will be all in them and they shall see my face and my name shall be in their foreheads I will speak in them and manifest my glory in them which shall be as a mark on their foreheads that they are the seed which I the Lord of hosts have blessed and there shall be no night there they shall have no need of a candle neither the light of the Sun that is my sons and daughters shall have no need of any outward administrations ordinances or wayes of worships which they have had but my river of life running in them that is my self dwelling in them shall give them life and make them to reign over sin hell and death and all enemies so they shall reign with me for ever saith the Lord of hosts And again the word of the Lord came unto me saying behold behold that which I will now shew thee and lo I beheld one with a vail over his face so that none could see his beauty but onely some glimmering light of him and I said Lord who doth this set forth that his face hath a vail over it that his beauty cannot be seen And my eternal God said this sets forth me the eternal King of Glory who have hid my glory and beauty from the children of men and also from them who have been my dearest servants that they have seen but very little of my beauty and also I have been silent and have not made out my self in any full measure or discovery of my self as yet but as you saw him throw away his vail and did behold him in his beauty so will I now make out my self in the fulness of my self to my sons and daughters that they may now see and behold my beauty and the glory of me that they may no longer go a whoring after other Gods but that I the King of glory might have them come running to me to be taught by me the Lord of hosts who am the King of glory And again the word of the Lord came unto me saying behold and observe and I will shew thee that which shall suddenly come to pass and ●o I looked and there appeared a man with a sword in his hand ready drawn saying I am now come to cut down that time may be no longer I have a long time been silent but I am now risen like a man of warre and will cut down and devoure at once And I beheld and presently he fell to cutting off the heads of men that were together and then he said I will not onely cut off the heads but I will cut up the root too that there may not be left root nor branch And I said Lord who doth this man represent and my God said it represents me the Lord of host who am now risen to cut down and destroy all my enemies I have along time bin silent but I will no longer be so for my time is now come that I may make a short work and I said Lord what doth time mean as he said it should be no longer and the Lord said by time is meant the set time of my determination which is now in this yeare 1650. but the meaning of time shall be no longer and time times and dividing of times in Daniel and the forty and two months spoken of are now in this year 50. a beginning to be accomplished in this Land to the cutting down of the Parliament and all powers besides my self in this Land as was shewed thee by the cutting off of heads with my sword and as he said he will cut down the roots too and he thrust the sword as he had in his hand into the earth and did cut off the roots and said he will neither leave root nor branch but I will cut off the Parliament and all the powers here in England first and they shall never rise more on the earth the roots being cut up it shews the Parliament who are a power chosen by earthly men shall in this year be cut down and there shall never be any more power but I will be the power that shall rule here saith the Lord of Host And after I had writ this I heard a voice within me saying I will shake thee that thou maist know it shall come to passe and that I have commanded thee to write and print this saith the Lord of host who will be all and in all and I was presently taken with shaking so that I was not able to hold my self still And the word of my God came again saying Behold and I will shew thee those things that shall come to passe and lo there appeared to me a field of Corn and Reapers with their sickles ready to reap it downe and presently I heard a voice say the harvest is ripe cut it down And I said Lord what doth his field hold forth and the Lord said the Parliament and all earthly powers and the harvest shews the time appointed that they are now ripe for the slaughter for thrust in the cickle the harvest is ripe this harvest sets forth that I had a set time for earthly powers to continue before I would destroy them but the harvest is now ripe in this year 1650. Therefore as you saw these reapers cut down the wheat and made the others stand bowing and bending they represent my instruments being seven shews they are a perfect number which I have chosen in this yeer now the time of the harvest being come that they shall cut down and destroy all powers whom I have appointed for the slaughter and make the rest stand
