THE VISION OF John Perrot Wherein is contained the Future State of EVROPE c. WOE Woe unto the Sanstuary of the Lord for it is Polluted Woe to the Mountain of the Lord for it is at Ease The Habitation where the God of Jacob should Dwell is become the Habitation of Devils The Day is coming that it shall be Plowed like a Field And the Families of the Mountain shall Worship apart yea every one apart and their Wives apart Behold a Desolation is coming from the Four Winds which shall Scatter the Inhabitants of the Mountain because they Trusted in Themselves and Not in the Lord. They thought that their Mountain should be their Safety in the Day of Trouble But Lying Vanities shall not Deliver in that Day neither shall taking the LORDS Name in Vain be a Refuge For they have gone astray from the Ways of the Lord every one walkes in and Loves his own Way and is gone a Whoring after other Gods Their Covetousness is their Delight they walk not in the Truth neither do they Love it but Diceit is their Covering all the Day long They Profess and draw near to the Holy One in words but their Hearts are far from Him They walk Craftily with their Neighbour and deal Deceitfully with their Friend and make the Profession of the Lords Holiness their Covering They fill their Mouthes with vain Words and Codemn the Things which they Do and yet Hate him which Reproves in the Gate Shall not the Lord Visit for these Things Shall not the Holy One take Vengeance suddainly For the Pride of their Hearts their foolish Imaginations and their Spiritual Idolatry in High Places which would constrain the Lord to their Mountain and the Holy One to their Habitations Is He not the God of the whole Earth Shall Man Limit his Spirit Or teach him to understand who is the Fountain of Wisdom Surely No. The time was when thou wast a Small People and Little in thine own Eyes thou didst Walk in Simplicity Innocency was thy Covering and Lowliness of Mind became thy Habitation Truth in the Inward Parts was thy Delight and the Lord rejoyced to do his Plant good and to bless it and increase it that it might flourish and bring forth good Fruit but when the time came that he expected Fruit behold nothing but Barrenness and Deadness and wild Grapes What shall the Lord do to this Plant He will Prune it and Dress it and Cut off all the dead and barren Branches and those that bring forth wild Grapes and Graft other Branches in A Day of Vengeance from the Lord is coming which shall try all Flesh and it shall begin at the Lords Sanctuary first Woe woe unto those have known the Way of Truth and have not Walked answerable to it but have made Deceit their Covering and have walked like careless Daughters at ease in the Flesh The Lord will Visit with Wrath He will Overturn Overturn the deceitful Mourners of the Sanctuary the weeping and sighing Women shall not prevail in that day which make a noise for vanity and hang down their Heads for an hour like a Bulrush in Deceit These things are an Abomination to the Lord his Soul hates them He will surely be Avenged on such a People as this the Prophaners of his Holy Name And behold the Man that talked with me who told me of the things that are to come had a Sword drawn and he answered and said This is the Sword of the Lord and it is drawn to make a separation between the Righteous and the Wicked and to make a Desolation amongst the Kingdoms of the Earth For a Destruction is determined and it shall come to pass and none shall let it Nevertheless before these things be fulfilled the Holy Seed must pass through a fiery Tryal and the Children of thy Father shall endure manifold Afflictions such as when they are told shall make a Mans Ears to tingle These things will be permitted for a Time for a Tryal of those that are His that there may be a Separation between Those that are Talkers of the Name of the Lord and Them which are truly Purified with Blood When these have filled up their Measures not long after the Blackness of Darkness shall cover the Face of the Earth Paleness shall be upon every Countenance Feebleness shall take hold of all Loyns and a Horrible Fear shall surprize every Soul The Hypocrite shall Tremble the Lofty shall be Abased for the Lord shall then begin to Reign Then shall the Seed of the Covenant Spring Fresh and Flourish and the Everlasting Generation shall begin to be made Manifest even in the Sight of all Nations This is the Work which is to be Done and it shall Surely Come to Pass The Things which I tell thee Write in a Book And as He talked with me He Shewed me Several Things concerning the Kingdoms of the Nations and he Pointed out One Kingdom to a Certain Destruction And He said unto me Son of Man turn thee and look into the South And I turned and behold I saw a Leopard and towards the North of Him a Terrible Monstrous Beast with Three Heads having Many Horns And I looked till I Saw the Leopard make War with the Beast with Three Heads until the Leopard had Destroyed Him and cut off all his Heads I asked the Man that Talked with me saying What meaneth this And He said Wait and See And I waited till I Saw an Eagle arise And She also made War with the Leopard and She had for a Season the better of the Leopard for when She was at any time in Danger Her Wings helped Her and She Lifted Her Self from
