of Steeple-houses them that came in Gods fear and dread to pronounce Woes Vengeance Plagues upon them that had gotten the Sheeps cloathing but inwardly were ravening Wolves and upon them that said fair but did not and now hath the Lord made them of the Synagogue of Satan that said They were Jews and were not but did lie in their hearts and dissembled with God and Man and with the Priests God is pleading and will yet more and more plead with them in his Wrath and they shall have no cover nor cloak for their sins because Christ is come and manifest in our day doing the works which none else can do in and for all them that believe in him and the chief Priests in this day as of old have appeared against his Work and coming in ten thousands of his Saints and how have they many wayes sought to deform God's Work and Image in his People How many false slanders and false reports have they invented and raised seeking and endeavouring to render the begotten of God odious and Truth to be error And how have they put Light for Darkness and Darkness for Light sweet for bitter and bitter for sweet Oh people how have you been cheated by those you call your Ministers and Leaders How have you been led into error and kept in error by them And how full of lightness are they And how are they like to be instrumental to beget you out of lightness lying and vanity who are in it themselves And how are they like to beget you out of pride and covetousness who are in it themselves And how are they like to beget you out of Whoredom and Swearing who are in it themselves And these are Ministers God never sent that profit not the people at all but keep them alwayes learning but laden with corruption and led away with divers lusts Are they not Ministers of Antichrist that keep people ever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of Truth which would save set them free from their sins O people slow of heart to believe what the Lord hath spoken by his Prophets and Servants unto you beseeching you in Christs stead to come out of your sins that you might be reconciled to God that you might unload your selves of that heavy and dark burthen of sin and leave your sins and forsake your sins and break off from your sins by timely Repentance Oh poor shattered people I do believe you have not all sinned out your day though certainly many have but there is large love and bowels of pity yerning in my heart towards you Therefore to you I call while it is to day hear the Voice of Christ Jesus hear that your Souls may live hear that you may come out of the Grave of sin and trespasses where you are dead that you may come out of the way of evil men and not walk in the way of the ungodly nor any longer stand in the way of sinners for that brings death and keeps you in death O sit no longer in the seat of the scornful and mockers lest your bonds be made strong so strong in iniquity that you will never be able to get out Oh people come out of Hell come out of the Graves come out of Death be warned and awakened stand up from the Dead where you long have lain asleep that Christ you may feel a Light to your feet and a Lanthorn to your path and then he will lead you out of the way of the Wicked and the wayes of Death the wayes of Hell if ye hearken to him ye that have been at ease from your Youth at ease in vain thoughts that lodge in you at ease in bad wicked words in cursed speaking swearing and lying The Lord is coming to take your peace and ease from you and to bring terror and perplexity upon you God's hand is lifted up against you Vials Vials Plagues Plagues Wo wo to the Inhabitants of the Earth the Sea and all the wicked that do wickedly on them will the Lord pour forth the Vials of his Wrath. He hath begun dreadfully to warn thee O England of the evil of thy wayes by Sword and other Judgements to the cutting off many of thine Inhabitants and yet how few in thee take notice of the Hand of the Lord which is lifted up against thee Hadst thou hearkened to the Counsel of God through his Servants and Messengers which he sent unto thee several years agoe foretelling what wo would befal thee if thou wentest on in thy sins which if thou hadst hearkened unto surely these Miseries Plagues and Calamities that are come and coming would not have come upon thee but now in way of Judgement is the Lord pleading with them that would not own his hand of Love and misery after misery shall overtake them unless they speedily repent and turn to the Lord God Oh! do you not see the hand of the Lord which is lifted up to smite and cut down the wicked workers Surely you prophane wicked ones you Hypocrites and Dissemblers you shall see it and feel it more and more if you repent not and come out of your wickedness which abounds in the Nation as in Sodom and if the mighty works which have been done in thee had been done in Sodom and Gomorah they would have repented of their wickedness Truly when I consider thy sins O England thy great Abominations wherewith thou hast grieved the Lord and kindled his displeasure against thee I could expect nothing but utter ruine and destruction from the Almighty to come upon thee and thy Inhabitants onely this stayes me in hope knowing God hath raised a small remnant of Righteous Ones that are vexed with the filthiness of thine Inhabitants and their wicked Conversations if the Nation be not wholly ruined it 's for their sakes whom you O people of England have sought to cast out and banish from amongst you for Christs sake but onely for their sakes I have no ground in me to believe but that great misery yea even utter ruine would come upon this Nation and People You have been so wicked and stiffnecked against the Lord that it may be the Lord will not permit the Righteous Persons amongst you to interceed for you but that in this day of calamity the Righteous Man must onely deliver his own Soul but not be able to deliver any of you that have sold your selves to work wickedness it may be if Noah or Daniel or any of the Apostles or Ministers of Christ should intercede the Lord for you yet the Lord will not be heard of them on your behalf so as to turn away his Wrath and Judgement which is towards you O People of England So you that have not sinned out your day be awakened out of your sins be no longer partaker with the wicked in sin nor at ease in your sins but come to that which condemns sin and destroys the Devils works that you may be saved and be hid in the day of the Lords Wrath that you may trust in the Lord and stay your selves upon the God of Jacob who is arising in his might and Power to punish the wicked for all their ungodly deeds which they have done and all the hard speeches which they have spoken against him and his People and he will sweep away the refuge of lies and he will render vengeance on all them that know him not and that obey not the Gospel yea he will pour fury on his Adversaries and just recompence on his Enemies and all that are at ease in sin and waxed wanton on the Earth terror shall shortly take hold on them and fearfulness shall surprize the Hypocrite and they shall call to the Mountains and Hills to cover them and hide them from the Wrath of the Lamb and shall not be able to dwell with devouring burning when the Lord appears in his terrible Majesty in a way of fierce Wrath Judgement and fiery Indignation Therefore O people take warning if it be not too late to them that have sinned out their day it is but for their sakes that have not quite sinned out their day is this written that they may be awakened and turn to the Lord at his reproof before their day be over and Gods Spirit leave striving with them and the door of Mercy be shut against them so as they shall find no place of Repentance nor entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven though they cry Lord Lord open unto us THE END
