A42756	A warning and visitation to the inhabitants of Godalming All you that read this, be not rash, but weigh it right with the true weight, and the even ballance, the ballance of the sanctuary, and then you will not judge amiss of it; for it is not in hatred or reproach to any, but in love to all souls, in plainness and truth. And you inhabitants of Godalming, be warned, and seriously consider of this visitation; for the spirit of the Lord yet strives with you as with the old world, but they not taking warning, were drowned: therefore prise your time, and despise not the reproof of instruction, for such are brutish; but reprove or instruct a wise man, and he will love thee; reprove a scorner, and he will hate thee; but the reproof of instruction is the way of life to the wise; and a wise man will hear and increase in wisdom: be calm therefore, and learn of the light which is the way and the truth. T.P.	Gill, Henry.	1658 (1658)	Wing G742A; ESTC R219870	5,512	8

i_o shall_v be_v clear_a when_o you_o be_v judge_v for_o do_v you_o believe_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v well_o with_o the_o wicked_a that_o you_o harden_v your_o heart_n against_o the_o lord_n nay_o the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v turn_v into_o hell_n and_o their_o prayer_n he_o will_v not_o regard_v do_v you_o think_v god_n will_v be_v mock_v any_o long_a with_o your_o vain_a oblation_n or_o do_v you_o think_v that_o you_o may_v join_v with_o the_o wicked_a and_o not_o partake_v of_o their_o sin_n or_o do_v the_o drunkard_n or_o liar_n worship_n god_n if_o you_o say_v nay_o then_o come_v out_o from_o the_o steeplehouse_n and_o leave_v the_o priest_n and_o drunkard_n alone_o together_o and_o be_v no_o long_o deceive_v by_o he_o you_o call_v your_o minister_n because_o he_o have_v the_o good_a word_n and_o fair_a speech_n to_o betray_v the_o simplicity_n in_o you_o but_o he_o have_v make_v himself_o manifest_a for_o every_o tree_n be_v know_v by_o his_o fruit_n therefore_o if_o he_o bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n he_o must_v be_v a_o evil_a tree_n consider_v his_o fruit_n be_v covetousness_n lie_v and_o cast_v into_o prison_n this_o be_v manifest_a wickedness_n such_o as_o no_o true_a prophet_n or_o apostle_n do_v and_o no_o minister_n of_o christ_n ever_o do_v cast_v any_o into_o prison_n for_o their_o belly_n nor_o such_o do_v not_o cry_v peace_n to_o the_o wicked_a as_o you_o do_v neither_o do_v they_o tell_v people_n that_o they_o can_v not_o be_v free_a from_o sin_n here_o as_o priest_n now_o do_v for_o they_o that_o the_o son_n make_v and_o make_v free_a be_v free_a indeed_o john_n 8._o 36._o then_o they_o be_v liar_n that_o say_v none_o can_v be_v free_a from_o sin_n here_o for_o if_o not_o here_o in_o this_o life_n than_o i_o say_v never_o shall_v for_o there_o be_v no_o cleanse_n after_o death_n but_o as_o the_o tree_n fall_v so_o it_o lie_v and_o as_o death_n leave_v so_o judgement_n find_v therefore_o consider_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n what_o
