corruptions O! O how hath Hell inlarged it self for the multitude of those wilful transgressors in thee that are posting on in their sins this day to the Chambers o● death who are making provision for the fleshly lusts which war against the soul who will not believe what their miserable state shall be though one come from the dead to declear it in true experience to them But O thou Little Remnant of Wheat amongst such a heap of Chaff O thou lovely Seed of God which brings forth Fruit of Righteousness to his glory and so shines forth as Lights in the sore said dark world Do thou rejoice and be thou glad forever in the Lord thy Saviour who hath loved thee with an everlasting love and by his Arm of Power hath raised thee up to be his servant and hath gathered thee into his Bosom of Safety to lie down and rest in peace with himself for evermore So be it even so be it saith the Spirit and the Bride So do thou O Lovely Holy Seed begotten to God in Righteousness do thou trust and rejoice in the Lord thy God for ever And be not troubled nor dismay'd at the roarings of the Waters of Babilon but be still be still be at rest and Peace in the Arms of the Lord God Almighty blessed blessed for evermore From a Lover of God's Everlasting Truth Thomas Tayler PEOPLE THis know That the Entrance into Righteousness is the Only and Alone Entrance into the Kingdom of God and there is not another Christ is Gods Righteousness and so the Door He that entreth not in by me saith Christ is a thief and a robber So see all people where you are I am the Way the Truth and the Life also saith Christ and no man cometh to the Father but by me So consider all people Is Christ your Way and is nothing Truth to you but Christ and have you a Life in nothing at all but in Christ Deal honestly with your own souls and deceive not your selves for God will not be mocked Bring your deeds to the Light and seek not to hide your sins from the Lord for Their is nothing secret which shall not be made manifest Drunkard bring thy deeds to the light Thou knowest by the Light thou shouldst not be Drunk nor spend God's Creatures upon thy Lust. Here thou hast learned thy Condemnation and the Wrath of God abides upon thee in this Condition profess what thou mayst And all thy Prayers and Performances are Abomination to the Pure God whilst thou abidest in the Lust of Drunkenness for it defiles And all ye Unclean-Hearted Ones who burn in your Lusts one towards another and are as the Bruit Beasts who know neither Guide nor Rule over your Minds but are in the Evil Liberty to follow your own Evil Hearts Bring your Deeds to the Light and it will let you see you should not be so It will tell you That the Unclean shall not enter God's Kingdom and Without Holiness none can see God Here ye may see your Way to be to the Chambers of Hell and Death and not to Christ. And all ye Swearers Vain and Obscene Talkers and Foolish Jesters whose Tongues run through the World and as you know no Limit to your Lusts so you know no Bridle to your Tongue Your Religion is Vain Jam. 1.26 Bring your Deeds to the Light there you may read your Condemnation For there is that in your Conscience tells you according to Scripture that For every Idle Vain Unclean or Prophane Word that Men shall speak they must give Account thereof to the Pure and Just God in the Day of Judgment Howl then ye Guilty and be Humbled for your Sins lest that Day come suddenly upon you as a Thief in the Night and sweep you all away as it did the Old World who regarded not the Day of their Visitation but went on in their Sins until there was no Remedy Awake awake ye Dead and Careless-Hearted who put the Day of the Lord afar off and cry Peace when there is no Peace For what Peace to the Wicked There is no Peace to the Wicked saith the true God but Peace only upon Zion and to such as turn from Iniquity in Jacob. So let not one take the Name of Christ in their Mouth any more until they depart from Iniquity For such as go on in the Custom and daily Practice of Sin and yet think to cover themselves with an Outward Profession of Christ do but deceive themselves and increase their Condemnation adding Sin to Sin This is God's Truth which he that hath an Ear let him hear and he that hath any Desire in him to return to God let him consider of and give Glory to God by Repenting of that which doth any way dishonour God Also this know for truth That your Invented Licentious Gaming for Vain Delights and Pleasures is not of God but an Invention of that Wicked One who is called the Devil and Satan invented to please the Vain and Empty Minds of his Children and Servants which are out of the Law and Truth of God But the Children and Servants of God are full of Goodness and are exercised in the Law and Truth of God Day and Night and so deny the Devil and his Works So let no Man deceive any of you neither be deceived in your selves for the Judge is at the Door And the True light is arisen which makes manifest every Work and the Reward of it forever And all ye Stage-Players Puppit-Players and the Authors and Inventors of such things with all that love such Heathenish things yea and give your Money for them that thereby ye may feed the Covetous Lusts in the Players that thirst after Money and the Vain Lust of your own defiled Eyes and Ears which are after Pleasures more then the Lord God that made you Know this That your Works are all weighed in an Equal Ballance and by the Light of Christ you are all seen to be out of the Doctrine of Christ in the Heathenish Nature upholding and practising those things which Christ came to destroy Yea and by the Light of Christ in your own Consciences when you are a little sober and still in your Minds you know you should not do such things Here you also have learn'd your Condemnation and cannot in this State stand before the Lord because of your Sins And all ye that can please your selves with beholding one Creature hurt and torment another yea sometimes even to Death as at Bull-Baitings Bear-Baitings Cock-Fightings and the like O! what Minds have ye and how contrary are ye herein to the Tender Nature of Christ and all Christians truly so call'd who could never Rejoyce in any such things by reason of their tender pittiful and merciful Nature O ye Children of Cruelty when will your Hearts break your Stony Hearts melt into Tears before the Lord for all your mighty Sins and when will you bring your Deeds to the Light that ye may see
