sins by repentance cease from the evill of your doings and learn of God to do wel and if you will return return to the Lord God who is gracious and mercifull and in patience hath born long with ye all the time that ye were learning to preach who then saw what you were going about to do and all your actings in that time and all the time you have been preaching which hath brought forth nothing but vanity and lyes for all the profession of Religion that you have taught the people all this while stands in a lye and their fear of the Lord is taught them by your precepts who are men for what do you or they all possess of what you profess nothing at all therefore it is lightness and vanity and is unto the Lord as loath some as if you cut off a Dogs head or offered to him Swines Flesh in abominable broath nay he will not accept of the hire of a whore that you bring before him it all stincks in his Nostrills and is cast out from before him as a filthy Dung-hill Your sacrifice is abomination and all your works are as filthy Rags and as the cloath of a monstrious woman ye are defiled and with your defilements you defile Oh stop your mouthes and be silent ye men who are called Ministers of the Gospell but are not the Ministers of Christ and let shame cover your faces in the presence of the Lord God of life and power who is of purer eyes than to behold iniquitie Therefore all people High and Low Rich and Poor Bond and Free who have been hearing and learning for many years together of those you call Ministers and are not the Ministers of Christ by whose Ministry ye are not yet come to the knowledg of the truth by their long preaching Cease from man whose breath is in his Nostrills and spend not your money for that which is not bread nor your labour for that which satisfies not but return to the Lord Jesus Christ the Light the Saviour and Bishop of your souls who saith come learn of me hearken diligently hear and your souls shal live who filleth the hungry with good things and the rich he sends empty away A Prophet hath the Lord God raised up amongst you hear ye him saith the Lord in all things who teaches the way of truth and holyness without which no man shal see the Lord and this is my beloved Son saith God he that refuseth to hear him shal be cut off from the land of the living for God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten Son into the world and this is the condemnation the light which is into the world come Christ Jesus the Son of God the light of the world that makes manifest in you sin and evill deeds and shews you all things that ever you have done in your life time and this is Christ the Prophet that meets with you whithersoever you go and shews you that sin which you have committed in secret which none can reprove you for but he that seeth in secret and in the dark places and this is Christ the light of the world that enlightneth every one that comes into the world and is made manifest in the conscience and to as many as receive him and believe on his name he gives them power to become the Sons of God whom he teacheth in his wayes so that they need not another to teach them being the children of the Lord are taught of the Lord and Sons of God are led by the Spirit of God into all truth and can read the Law writ in their hearts Now people every one of you mind that which makes manifest your sin unto you and checks you for the sin you commit by bringing upon you tribulation and anguish upon every one that doth evill Those that walk in darkness hate Christ Iesus the light that is come into the world and is the condemnation of those that love darkness and not the light because their deeds be evil and the light reproves them because their works are of the Devil but he that doeth truth cometh to the light that his deeds may be tryed whether they be of God who is light and in him is no darkness at all Now people ye have a Light in your consciences which makes manifest your sin unto you unto which ye do wel if ye take heed as unto a Light that shineth in a dark place until the day dawn and the Day-star arise in your hearts which is the sure word of prophesie and the Son of righteousness that rises with healing in his wings therefore come to him that ye may have life wait upon him who is worthy of waiting on who wil anoint you with an unction by which you shal know al things so that you need not to be taught of man and gives to every one freely without money and without price bread to the hungrie water to the thirsty soul clothing to the naked eye-salve to the blinde the poor he fils with good things and those that fear him shall not want but the whole need no Physician and the rich he sends empty away Therefore while you have time people prize it draw nigh unto God and he will draw nigh unto you clense your hands you sinners and purifie your hearts ye double-minded cease from evil and put not from you the evil day afarr off but put away from you the evil of your doings and learne the fear of the Lord which is to depart from sinne and the beginning of pure wisdome which teaches how to do righteouslie justlie and to walk humblie with the Lord and this is the grace of God that appears to all men that brings salvation and teaches men to denie all ungodliness and worldly lusts and to live soberlie righteouslie and godlike holie as he is holie in this present world in all manner of conversation here is life and death set before you people choose which you will for if you neglect so great salvation how do you think to escape the damnation of hel Therefore people in the fear of the Lord search and try all things forsake the evil and hold fast that which is good of God who is faithful and deceives none for the Kingdome of heaven is within you and the many deceivers are in the world look not out at them neither go after them but keep your heart with all diligence for out of them are the issues of life for in Israel abides in his tents and do not say but in your life-time you have been warned of the manie deceivers by him who is a lover of your souls who is knowne by the name of Henry Clark Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter
