A95039	The whirl-wind of the Lord gone forth as a fiery flying roule, with an alarm sounded against the inhabitants of the north-countrey. Being a fore-warning to all the rulers in England, of the mighty and terrible day of the Lord, which shall overtake the wicked; but especially and in particular, to the persecuting rulers, priests, and people, in the county of Westmerland. Who by their fruits are made manifest to all, to be open enemies to Sions converts, and a generation of evil doers, with whom the Lord Jehovah is coming to plead the cause of the oppressed, and to redeem Zion with judgement, and her converts with righteousness. G.T.	Taylor, Christopher, ca. 1615-1686.	1655 (1655)	Wing T268; Wing T269; Thomason E853_6; ESTC R202135	12,500	19

the life they know not which is eternal and immortal beware of dogs beware of Concision separate your selves from unrighteousnesse without and learn Christ who is within the vail through the death arisen and ascended far above all principalities and powers and hath led captivity captive and hath through death overcome him who had the power of death that is the Devil and is set down at the right hand of God for ever making intercession by his blood whose righteousness is pure and all are Virgins that follow the Lamb cloathed in white linnen who are redeemed to the Lamb through his blood having in the greatnesse of his strength trodden the Wine-presse of the wrath of God and there was none to help him without the Camp of God where all the persecutors of the righteous seed must be trodden in pieces and drink of the Cup of the Lords fury and indignation which is to be given them without mixture and they must drink it and be drunk and mad as it is at this day he that can receive

head if thou perish and he that commeth out of thy sins doth deliver his soul and come to eternal life to the light of Christ in every one of your Consciences I speak which shall be my witness and
