Lord have we not Heard Thee Teaching in our Streets Luke 13. 26 And was not that sometimes counted worth a Supper Mark 6. 34 35. 37 Have we not Prophesied in thy Name Mat. 7. 32 And dost not thou say such Labourers are worthy of their Meat Mat. 10. 10 Yea Have we not Cast out Devils in thy Name Mat. 7. 23 And wilt thou Cast us out unto the Devil and his Angels Mat. 25. 41 To which it will be then Replyed but did you not All this unto your selves Zech. 7. 5. 6 And in a Deceitful way of keeping back your Male Mal. 1. 14 Both as to principal Time-Truths and Duties You have had your Reward already Mat. 6. 2. and selfish Aims have made your work Iniquity Mat. 7. 23. 4. Because they did go forth at first to meet the Bridegroom Mat. 25. 1. Lord may such plead we sometimes bore an Open Testimony hazarding our All in the Maintaining of thy Cause and doth not Half the work Deserve some Part of Pay But Christ will then Reply you did run well who hindred you Gal. 5. 7 Why did you not so run as to Obtain 1 Cor. 9. 24 My Cross should daily have been taken up Luke 9. 23. nor was Salvation promised but to Endurers to the End Mat. 24. 13. You were the more Foolish to Begin Luke 14. 28. yea I was therefore most Reproached by you Apostates Heb. 6. 6. however you knew the Law that all the Backslider's former Righteousness shall be forgotten Ezek. 18. 24. 5. Because their Not going out the Second time proceeded from their want of Oyl Mat. 25. 8. Lord will these say we had not Light unto this Latter work and wilt thou Gather where thou hast not Strewed Mat. 25. 24 Heathens will not be Judged for the Light they Have not Rom. 2. 12. and shall we Virgins be more Hardly dealt with Our Lamps went out through lack of Oyl and therefore must we now be cast out into utter Darkness But Christ will then Reply you took no Oyl at first Mat. 25. 3. whose Fault was that You trusted unto flashy good Affections though I had told you of the stony Hearers Mat. 13. 20 21. Nay the Truth is you wanted not Light but Will and as it now appeareth by your coming but too late 6. Because of what they had more Lately done or since the Cry was made Lord will they say we presently Arose and Trimmed our Lamps as well as our Companions and is that nothing worth VVe came to them for Oyl but were Repulsed and must we now Suffer for th●●r unwillingness to help us Nay thereupon we went to Buy as they Advised us and was there a Design-upon us in that Counsel To which it will be Answered You did my work Deceitfully and that Deserves a Curse instead of VVages Jer. 48. 10. You begged coldly at the best that Taught my Servants to Deny you as 2 King 5. 18 19. Nor did you come to Buy of Me I know you not 't is so long since I saw you 7. Because of their not having yet had a Legal Trial or due Conviction before a Sentence Lord will these say Thy Servants Generally have not Born Witness Hitherto against us ask them and they will not deny it Nor was the Case decided fully in our Consciences unto this Day Shall we now be Condemned by our Exclusion before a Trial Or Excommunicated without a Previous Admonition But Christ will Answer You heard the Cry as your awakening thereupon Evinced You had the Scriptures clearing up that Duty wherein you failed You also had some Pangs of Conscience witness the Trimming of your Lamps Therefore you had a Three-fold Admonition which is one more than Necessary Titus 3. 10. 8. Because they have Now Got that Oyl as their Returning intimateth which heretofore they lacked Lord will these say we Now are come up to Thy Terms We Now have Light into that work of Going Forth And wilt thou not Admit Repenting sinners yea at what Time soever But Christ may Answer Your Common-Prayer-Book hath it at what Time soever but not the Scripture nay I have oft told you that my Door will not stand alway Open. Nor have you now got Light into your Duty but onely wit to save your Interest by falling in with safe and Gainful Service And if I should forgive you this time also the next Temptation would evince your being still the same as hath been oft Experimented 9. Because of what Encouragement they sometimes had to Hope as to a Real work of Grace upon their Hearts and consequent●y for Admission notwithstanding Lesser Failings Lord will these say Hast thou not sometimes Crowned us with Peculiar Favours Hath not thy Spirit witnessed with ours that we were Thine Yea had we not the witness of water as well as Blood of Duty Excepting this Particular as well as Faith on Thee And shall this one Blot spoil our former Evidences But Christ will Answer I never Warranted your Thus concluding You spoke Peace to your selves and Fathered it upon me I gave you Sixpence and you thence hoped to be mine Heirs Time-Duties also are that by which all other is to be Tried John 8. 24. 10. Because of some Admitted in who were as likely as Themselves or rather more to be Excluded Lord will these say There sitteth one who is too Young to have Deserved such a Priviledge let him give Place to us his Seniors Here comes Another who hath been formerly on Old Egyptian shall he step in before us Israelites Yea those Wise Virgins there our Old Companions have had but a very little Time wherein to shew their being Better than our selves why then are we so hardly dealt with But Christ will Answer How Bold are you thus to Reply Rom. 9. 20. or Bind my Hand Mat. 20. 15 These few Wise Virgins came in Time so did not you Those Younger ones have not been Tried as you have been However I have told you Mat. 8. 11 12. that many shall be Admitted yea some Egyptians and Assyrians Isa 19. 23. when such as you shall be Cast out 11. Considering the Matter of their Request Lord will these say did we Desire a Dispensation to Transgress or did we onely beg some outward Mercy then might we Justly be Repulsed But we Intreat Communion with thy self and with thy People and hast thou not Promised to give thy Spirit or Spiritual Good things to them that ask him Luke 11. 13 But Christ will Answer That Promise is onely made to Children And Promises are onely sure in Me 2 Cor. 1. 20. whom they who are without are therefore Strangers from the Promises Eph. 2. 12. save as the Spirit is Promised unto such as do Return at my Reproof Prov. 1. 23. Nor do you so much desire Communion with my People as with their Priviledges 12. Considering the Earnestness of their Desire which doth evince their being Cordial and Affectionate Lord will these say as sometimes Job did to
