or to buy any of their stuff And furthermore they cause mens means to be taken from them to uphold their Idols Temple which they call their Church of those men who denies their Worship when that man comes declares against their Worship they will draw him out and put him into prison and this is abominable to cause a man to pay towards the repairing of a House and when he comes there they will pull him out and put him into prison but the day of the Lord is springing that people will not buy their stuff so willingly as they have done in times past and now they are inventing and devising a way which is a Law to enforce people to buy of their stuff to compel them to their Worship the same it is now as it was with Nebuchadnezar who caused the people to worship the Image So all people consider whom you worship what you have bought of the Ministers of England and what it is they have sold unto you for if it be truth then they do act contrary to the Scriptures which saith Prov. 23. Buy the Truth sell it not mark sell it not for whoever sells the truth God's Word is one with Judas for he sold the Truth and the life and the Word of God and if any should say he sells not Rom. 23. the Truth then doth he sell lyes for what is of faith is of God and what is not of faith is sin and a divination of their own brains and the imaginations of their own hearts and these men speaks peace where the Lord speaks not peace unto them and will say Is not the Lord amongst us And all this is but to have the people to uphold them and their Wives in covertousness and pride and these are them that deceives the people who joins house to house and layes field to field as the deceivers in all ages did Isa 5. 8. Now if it were so that the Lord were well-pleased with their doings and were amongst them and they received him to whom all power is given Why then have they not power over sin for that which destroys sin is much wanting amongst the Priests and people of England for they can cry out against sin in words as the false prophets did but in life practice and conversation they live in sin and unrighteousness now we can truly say that these Priests people have not the truth though they have the true Words for the Scripture saith As many as received him to them gave he power to become the sons of God even to them that believe in his Name John 1. 12. If they had but come so far as to believe in his Name he would have given them power over sin uncleanness but they wanting power they want the truth and remains in their sins and so are found false Witnesses 1 Cor. 15. 15. and ever lives in ungodliness and the pleasure of the World and wantonly upon earth and so man cometh to commit sin and iniquity and so becomes ignorant of God for whosoever sinneth hath not seen him neither known him John 3. 6. Now all people to the truth the light of the Lord Jesus Christ which shews sin and iniquity all take heed hearken to it and it will shew you whether you have profited more unto salvation then the deceivers and the deceived people did for they could say Lord Lord but did not the will of God but did their own wils and took pleasure therein which Works are these Pride Covetousness High-mindedness Envy Drunkenness and Whoredom Lying Stealing and Swearing and them that follow or live in those practices are deceived and when we come and declare against these evil practices then those that live in these evil practices do rage and cannot abide sound Doctrine and so they wil go about to plead for sin wickedness with all their strength might and strive to uphold it these are not in the truth but out of it Whosoever abideth in him who is the Truth sinneth not John 3. 6. And because we say that all people upon earth should come to that which is pure perfect and holy and this is the gift of God Christ Jesus who saith Come learn of me I am meek and lowly in heart and thou shalt find rest unto thy soul and all that comes to learn of Christ Jesus wil deny such as goes for gifts and rewards or set-maintenance and this causes the false Prophet and Priest to rage that they can no longer be upholden after men come to learn of Christ for he teaches purity and holiness and so brings man to God and so man comes to see the end of all perfection But thy Commandments are exceeding broad O Lord thy Testimonies are wonderful therefore doth my soul keep them Psal 119. 96. And further this was I moved to make known unto the World That in that time the Lord God Almighty did visit me with weakness insomuch that I did lye for dead the Lord God Almighty made known unto me that the day of destruction draweth nigh and will shortly come to pass that all the Wicked both Priests and People God will utterly destroy and burn them up both root and branch for the day cometh that shall burn as an Oven and the proud and all that doth wickedly shall be as stubble and then what will the wicked and ungodly Priests and people do in the day of Visitation and in the day of Desolation which will shortly come Then to whom will ye flye for help and where will you leave your glory So this have I made known to the World that some of them may fear and dread the Name of the Lord God Almighty against whom they have sinned and vvhose Name they have greatly dishonored and turn unto him vvith speed and forsake their sins and the evil of their Wayes that they may find mercy to help in the time of need and be saved John Moon FINIS
The Great TRUMPET OF THE Lord God Almighty OF HEAVEN and EARTH Blown and sounded out unto those that are ready to perish that they may return to the Lord Jesus Christ the Light and be saved OH all ye Inhabitants of the Earth My soul pitties you because you are walking in the Land of darkness and under the shadow of death unto you hath the light shined which shews you sin iniquity and if you wil but own that light as it shews you sin so deny it you will come to re-receive the light of life and so come to be brought out of the land of darkness which the Lord will destroy and the day is now dawned wherein neither their silver nor their gold shall Zeph. 1. 18. be able to deliver them in the day of the Lords wrath but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousie for he shal make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwel in the land for many people in this Nation are in the land of darkness which is sin and iniquity and their destruction will come upon them in a day an hour when they are not aware of in that day if they shall cry for help they will find none Awake awake unto righteousness for the glory of God is come his light is risen which searches the heart tryes the reins shews unto man what his Works are for every man is to receive a reward according to the deeds done in the body whether they be good or whether they be evil them whose deeds are evil are them who are deceived and the wages of sin is death so all people consider what you have profited towards salvation For many there be who follows them who doth not profit them towards redemption those can cry Lord Lord but they are found workers of iniquity so doing the will of another and the teachers of this people never brings them to know Gods salvation but teacheth the people to speak against it so the people themselves remains in their sins ignorant of Gods salvation which he hath prepared before the face of all people a light to lighten the Gentiles the glory of thy people Israel So all to mark consider the false prophets they cry up the letter saith that is the way unto God to bring man unto Christ and I say the letter brings no man unto God nor to the knowledge of Christ for the Scribes and Pharisees they had the letter Scriptures of truth neither knew God nor Christ for Christ said If ye had known me ye would not have crucified me And said No man comes unto me except my Father draws him mark It was the Father that drew unto the Son not the letter for the letter killeth but the spirit giveth life and many there be that can read the letter but doth not know the way unto eternal life these are them who profess God Christ in words but deny him in works for all who denies perfection or that which is perfect they deny the Father the Son them who hates Judgement they hate Gods Way And people do you not see and know that the Ministers of England so called do hate and deny perfection or to be perfect So herein they deny Christ which is Perfection his Work which is perfect Deut. 32. 4 he is the Rock his work is perfect mark his work is perfect for all his wayes are Judgement a God of truth and without iniquity just and right So herein they do deny the Workmanship of his hand and so denies the Lord that bought them and these are them who declare of God and Christ in words but their hearts are far removed from him following after the love of money which is the root of all evil this is more followed sought after by the Ministers of England then perfection mark money is more sought after then perfection by the deceivers who join house unto house and land unto land and these called the proud happy them who calls the proud happy their Works stand against the Lord yea and they that work wickedness and Isa 5. 8 abomination are set up but the hand of the Lord is lifted up against them and will dash them to pieces like a Potter's Vessel And if they should say What have we spoken so much against the Truth Ans Thou hast spoken against the Truth and in rebellion against the Light for thou knovvest not the Way thereof vvhich Way is pure and holy vvhere the defiled cannot walk Job 2● therein and from this were the Scriptures of truth given forth by the same holy and perfect life they come to be known and witnessed and by this light nd life comes all the false Prophets Deceivers to be seen and denyed who rebel against the light and this is not strange unto many all which rebels against that light which shews sin and iniquity they rebel both against the Father the Son this is the Message which we have heard of him and declare unto you that God is light in him is no darkness at all And Christ Jesus who is the light of the world and lighteth every man that cometh into the world who saith Ye shall know the false prophets by their fruits mark it is by their fruits that people should know them which are fruits of Wickedness Now we looking into the World to see what fruits the Ministers thereof brings forth which fruits are these Pride Covetousness Drunkenness Swearing Lying and Envy these are the fruits of the false prophets and the Ministers of England who keep the people ever learning but never able to come unto the knowledge of the truth for of this sort are they that creep into houses and leads captive silly women laden with sin led away with divers lusts pride and wantonness heady high-minded 2 Tim. ●● people lovers of pleasures more then lovers of God men of corrupt minds who resist the Truth and speak evil of the Light but now the time is come that these men wil not endure sound Doctrine but walk after their own ungodly lusts and this is plainly made manifest unto many for they do not cause so many to be put into prison for the unsoundness of their Doctrine for this is the cause their Doctrine is sound and wholsome the Ministers of England cannot endure it because it is sound Doctrine But all people learn Wisdom let your Ministers make good by Scripture their practices or else take heed of upholding them lest you partake of their sins and so partake of their plagues also for it is one thing to talk of the deceivers and another thing to know them and so deny them for no man can be greater deceived then to live in sin for that is the broadest way that man can find upon earth ma-many there be that walk therein
but strait is the way that leadeth unto life and few there be that find it which way is a perfect way So all people call unto remembrance what you know or have found which is pure holy perfect which is the way unto eternal life for many there be that finds the Bible reads the letter and are ignorant of the power of God and is found without God in the World and these are them who will not come unto Christ that they might have life neither do they believe the 〈◊〉 5. 40. Work of God which is perfect but they run to do their own Work and in their own name and the World receives them but he that cometh in the Name of the Lord they hate revile persecute for they that will live godly in this world must suffer persecution but many that live in pleasures and following the Ministers so called day by day and from time to time and from place to place until they were many years old and alwayes sin and iniquity remaining they are at this day saying Oh that we knew the truth So here it appears that these people are ever learning that say Oh that we knew the truth These are the deceived people And this I can really say That these followed not the truth nor the Lamb of God for as many as followed him he takes away their sins and brings them to sit down with him in heavenly places but the deceivers they please the people with crying against sin and tells them they must live in it But now Christ Jesus the light of the World is come and is making manifest himself unto them that fear him to the destroying of sin and iniquity And this is the testimony which I am sent to bear witness of unto the World that they through his name might believe and be saved for there is no other Name under Heaven whereby any man can be saved but by the Name of Jesus Christ which is pure holy and perfect without spot or blemish this is he who is God's righteousness and salvation to the end of the Earth but many of this World are ignorant of this pure and perfect Way which leads unto eternal life All people consider do you not hear and know that them who are called Ministers of England do deny purity holiness and perfection in this life that man cannot come unto it Christ saith Come and learn of me for I am meek and lowly And all that come unto Christ they come unto him that is perfect and who is the end of all perfection God of Heaven Earth And this we hold forth unto all people the gift of God the perfect way and life but them that denies perfection we can say no less they deny both God and Christ and also the blood of the Covenant and accounts it an unholy thing and tramples it under foot do you not see with your eyes hear with your ears that perfection is cryed against by many in this day and all that speak against it speaks against the truth and Gods righteousness these are the deceivers from them that are ignorant of perfection they are ignorant of Gods righteousness and so they being ignorant of Gods righteousness are going about to establish their Rom. 2. own and these are them who preacheth against sin in words but practiseth it in their lives and conversations preacheth against perfection for that which is of faith is perfect and of God that which is not of faith is sin Now if any should say Who are these that are the deceivers and they that know not Gods righteousness Ans I have found many in this Nation who are ignorant of perfection for all who live in sin and ungodliness are out of the Way of God and are in the broad way which leads unto destruction I have more to say against the blind guides of the world who tells people Scripture is their rule and finds them acting contraray unto Christ and the Scriptures who said Try all things hold fast that which is good which is the gift of God by which man is saved as saith the Scriptures For by grace are ye saved through faith and that not of your selves for it is the gift of God but the Ministers Eph. 2. of England do counsel the people not to hear them who are called Quakers and so would not have them to try all things for fear they should see their ignorance errors deny them no longer uphold them in their ungodlypractices which is covetousness and persecution and many evil practices more then is here mentioned but if there be any who love the truth they wil love that which proceedeth from the truth which is the holy Scriptures and will search them to see if the Ministers of England live the same life as they did who gave forth the Scriptures who were holy men of God and their Faith gave them victory over the World and that Gospel which they preached was the Gospel of Christ which is the power of God unto salvation to every one Rom. 2. that believes to the Jews first and also to the Greeks And now people consider you have long gone to hear the Ministers of England and hath believed that Gospel which they have preached but you alwayes remain in your sins and ignorant of the power of God so it is manifest that they preach another Gospel and so you should not uphold them in it neither in their pride and covetousness and ungodly conversation which they live in And now people have not your eyes seen this That as long as we followed them to hear them tell their imaginations their dreams and put into their mouths they spake peace unto us as they do unto you in this day But do not you hear that when we cannot put into their mouths and uphold them and their Wives in pride and covetousness then they prepare war against us and causes some to be put into prison and others to stocks others they cause their means to be taken from them violently to uphold them and their Wives in pride and that which is taken violently is the Wages of unrighteousness Oh people this is an abominable thing and deserves to be declared against for the people of God in all ages delared against the Wages of unrighteousness which is to take mens means and they having nothing for it as these do who are called Ministers of England and yet further they go in their wickedness besides taking their means they oft cast them into prison takes their means from them who learns not of them neither do they buy any thing of them and herein it is plainly manifest that the Ministers of England exceed all other Trades for falshood and dissimulation for they force men to buy of them or else they cause their means to be taken from them by force of those people who deny either to learn of them
