Nicholas Drabicius being a Minister of the Church in Bohemia which is called by the name of the Brotherly Unity is commended for singleness of mind without any deceit and for the love of Justice and Zeal enduring no Iniquity but he either reproved it or shewed displeasure against it Lastly being ready to succour the necessities of any neighbour whatsoever almost beyond example as is wont to be said of him by good men that are yet alive in an extraordinary manner and it may be most truly said of him That he was ready even to divide his heart with any one The Church being afterwards dispersed through the persecutions of the See of Rome when he saw that he was not banished far off he betook himself to the imployment of Cloathing for which cause especially the rest of his Brethren suspended him from the Office of the Ministry as a Traytor or Apostate In this state of Exile and as it were of Excommunication first the Word of the Lord came unto him in the year 1638 and so until 1664 he now being 77 years of age he hath the place of his abode in Moravia As concerning the question Whether or no these Prophecies or the like ought to be published Mark The said Prophecies will prove either false or true If false then there will when published come of it two notable profits one is that thereby Kings and Princes will be the more sure and prove good because if bad false Prophets would never stir against their Government The second is that the Subjects will henceforth beware of false Prophets and so keep to more firm obedience But if the said Prophecies should prove true then there would when suppressed come of it two irrepairable dammages One is that such who kick against the pricks will be arraigned at the Bar of the Lord Omnipotent and be found guilty of Suppression of the Lord's Voice when he roareth like a Lion to warn the Nations and Rulers thereof that they might not perish unawares but save themselves according to his direction The second is that they will be found guilty of High-Treason both to the King and the Subjects or People like one that knew they should be murdered and destroyed and yet hid it Therefore whatsoever those Prophecies might be false or true they ought not to be kept under a bushel but let them be set forth as a Candle that every one may take notice of them either to Salvation or to beware of false Prophets Or else some might be ready to think that men suppressing the publication thereof were convinced of something and afraid in their consciences of something which they sought to prevent the Lord's Judgment upon even as if humane craftiness were able to prevail with the Power of the Lord of Hosts and stop it which is but a pittiful wisdom to be laugh'd and mocked at by him that sitteth in the Heavens viz. the Lord and his Anointed Psal 2.
