pangs of that slaughter in you and then ye will witness the Messiah come in you in spirit and in wisdome and in a deep and quick understanding making the Heavens new in you and the earth new in you as Solomon saith God hath set the world in mans heart wherefore man cannot find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end thereof he that hath an ear to hear and heart to understand may now come to discern and read Nations Kingdoms Countries Armies Philistines Egyptians Aliens the seed of the Iew and the generation of the Gentile in him Mountains heaps of Stons Sodom Built and Gomorrah fenced Ierusalem trodden down Zion and her Daughter in bondage and her seed in great Captivity lamenting as in solitary places left and forsaken as in a wildernesse and as a Virgin Daughter in a strange land altogether left comfortlesse the poor the widow and the fatherlesse the blind the halt and the maimed all left without pity I say search your hearts in secret and see if this be not truth the light of Immanuel answering in all your consciences and hidden parts Again I say wait upon God with your minds staid upon the light in all your consciences and thereby God will shew you even by the coming of his son Iesus the Messiah the light of the World the fulfilling of the Law and of the Prophets in you that is to say thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart with all thy mind and with all thy soul and thy Neighbour as thy selfe this is the sum and substance of all which the light in all your consciences if ye follow it in your minds will perfectly lead to the fulfilling of and then ye will know that Immanuel the light of the World came not to destroy the Law but to fulfill the Law that the righteousnesse of the Law might be fulfilled in us who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit which is according to the leadings of the light in all our consciences and this is from the Lord both to the Iew and the Gentile Furthermore to the scattered Tribes of the house of Israel this is the word of the Lord God of Heaven and Earth who is the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob who by a mighty hand and out-stretched arm by the hand of Moses his Prophet and Messenger unto the seed in Bondage in great Captivity brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt Even vnto you Oh ye Iews this is the word of the dreadfull Lo●d God of Hosts and as a sign unto you and among you and in you it shall stand unto the end of your dayes if you perish in unbeliefe and in your sins that the Messiah is come Jesus whom your Fathers slew through unbelief and hard-heartednesse in their dayes who slew him for saying in words that which they themselves did own concerning themselves in the substance according to their profession that is to say he declared that he was the Son of God and therefore they put him to death as a Blasphemer and they said that God was their Father yet were in their wilfulnesse so far blinded that they could not discern that their words in manner of the declaration tended to the same thing and was of the same nature and this shall stand the sign thereof unto the end if ye perish in unbelief to your perpetuall judgment that he hath lightned you all with his true light which shineth in all your conscences which sheweth you in secret the deceitfulnesse of your hearts and convinceth you in your minds of lying cheating coveting envy and of all sin and unrighteousnesse which is not according to the Law of God written in your hearts this sign the light in your consciences shall never dye in you which all your burning Lamps and washings and Altars and vails and holiest of holiest and all the other ceremonies were but signs and figures and shadows of this everlasting signe and substance which shall perpetually stand to justifie you if you love it and follow it and walk according to it or to condemne you for evermore if ye hate it and walk contrary to it And be it also known unto you that if you expect another Messiah then him that is come which is Immanuel God with us in spirit and in life and power leading out of sin the land of bondage and darknesse and in vertue and in wisedome and in counsel and in judgment not judging according to the seeing of the eye or hearing of the eare but with righteous judgment in spirit who searcheth every spirit and the bottome of every heart with his light in every conscience ye are but Seekers unto this day for flesh to come yet farther to be an ease unto your flesh and to purchase more ease and liberty for your flesh in which state ye already stand even in the ease and lust of the flesh which God Almighty by the coming of his Son will destroy for because of sin and iniquitie and men living in the ease and lust of the flesh the Lord God will hasten judgement upon the earth Now consider search and see ponder it and lay it to heart that you may know what you have waited for that you may understand whether you have waited and sought for the true thing to come to pass that henceforth ye may seek aright else you may all waite till your limbs fails you and your eyes perish in their holes end in the end you fail of the expectation and fulfilling of your vain conceptions and blind imaginations wait therefore in spirit in humility of heart that Immanuel the light of the World Iesus the Messiah by whom ye are lightened ye may come to know and feel the power of his light in your consciences by it leading you out of all your sinnes and iniquities which is Satans bond the Devils chain of darknesse linking you together in hard-heartednesse and binding you in the lusts ceremonies customes and traditions of blindness and ignorance thereby ruling in your minds and spirits that knowing him ye may also know by him the breaking of the bonds of Hell and the disanulling of the Covenant which is made with death ye set at liberty in life and spirit to serve the Lord God of life who is a spirit and of purer eyes than to behold iniquity or countenance sinners in their evil wayes in the uprightness of your hearts and integrity of your souls that ye may be made unto him the praise of his name throughout the whole earth according to his promise that so ye may descern and feel the curse removed and taken from you which for many ages past hath stood upon the heads of the

THen arose up certain of the Elders of the Land and spake to all the Assembly of the people saying Micah the Morashite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah King of Judah and spake to all the people of Judah saying Thus saith the Lord of Hosts Zion shall be ploughed like a field and Jernsalem shall become heaps and the Mountain of the House as the high places of the Forrest Did Hezekiah the King of Judah and all Judah put him at all to death Did he not fear the Lord and the Lord repented him of the evil which he had pronounced against them thus might we procure great evil against our souls This is recorded in the Book of the Prophisie of JEREMIAH chap. 26. A Visitation Tryal and Warning to repent I Am the light of the world saith the Prophet whom God hath raised up like unto Moses saying I will raise them up a Prophet from amoug their brethren like unto thee and I will put my words in his mouth and he shall speak unto them all which I shall command him it shall come to pass that whosoever will not bearken unto my words which he shall speak in my Name I will require it of him He is the true light of the world the true Prophet which cometh in the Name of the most high God that sent him a light into the world to give light unto all Nations that all Nations through him who is the light of the world may come to believe and know the Almighty power of the Lord God who is working a work in our days at which the ears of many shall tingle And in this his mighty and terrible day which is at hand he is bringing to pass to make many tongues and languages and people and the people of many Nations of one heart and of one mind and soul and to set up his Standard in Zion and his salvation in Ierusalem And such their Authority and Dominion will he establish who seeks in the spirit of pure love and meekness to see his Scepter of righteousness lifted over all the Heads of the ungodly who are out of the fear of the eternal dreadful God of life and everlasting power working their own works and establishing their own wills And with this voice do I cry unto thee O TURK who are set over many Regions that over many more thou mayst reign until all the earth be subdued for thee for evermore to stand under thy Authority the Dominion of the Seed to be over the whole Earth being sent of the Almighty God unto thee and unto thy whole Nation with the Message of everlasting Peace in my mouth which if ye receive the Lord my God will be your rewarder in righteousness and behold thy honour shall be made greater and thy borders enlarged and great prosperity shall compass the dwelling of the desolate the fatherless and the widows and not one begging bread shall be in thy Dominion from the one end thereof unto the other but all shall see the plentifull day of God and the seed of the next generation shall bless the remembrance of thee and their posterity for ever even from one generation to another shall declare thy memorial which shall never be blotted out But if otherwise thou resist and incline not thine ear unto counsel but resist the Message of the Lord God of eternal life and infinite power behold I return if unto the Tombs of my Fathers with my peace with me which God hath given me and no man can take from me and the hand of the dreadfull Lord God of Hosts will follow me which Nations shall taste of in sore displeasure that resist my testimony of this Prophet whom I declare is the light of the world Whom I declare that him who is the light of the world all Nations may come to know that all Nations may worship but one God and have but one King and chief authority to rule and reign over them and that by him who is the light of the world you may be taught all things as from the mouth of the Lord dayly that no strength may exceed your power as ye shall know the hand of the Lord to be with you and no wisdom like unto your understanding as you take counsel of the Lord and not of man by which you shall see the utter overthrow and confusion yea the everlasting desolation of all that shall conspire against you and the whole strength and wisdom of man to be but as dust and as a thing lighter then vanity in the air that shal imbody themselves as Hosts striving to work your overthrow And this in the remembrance of Gods Decree of loving kindness to the least in your Nation is tendred to try your willingness to be everlastingly established Behold behold I cry the Prophet of the Lord the light of the would draweth nigh your gates and knocketh at the door of your hearts Oh Turk thou the greatest in strength of the arm of flesh and mightiest in power in that which as grass is subject to wither beyond many people yea even all the Nations of the Earth Thou oughtest to know this one thing chiefly that the dreadful Almighty God is King of the whole earth and Lord of the Heavens also with whom all nations are but as the dust of the ballance and drop of a bucket who measureth the Heavens as with a span and holdeth the earth and the seas in the hollow of his hand he is infinite in his Decrees and his wayes past finding out he hath overturned many Princes by his power and overthrown Kings by his might and made many nations heaps of desolation and laid the pleasant places waste forasmuch as the Lord of Hosts is jealous of his glory which many have turned into contempt even as the proud and lofty in heart have said Is there a God over us that we should fear to execute our wills upon any And so have turned equity backward and have not had regard unto the Commandements of God and have frustrated his Law and cast his holy Precepts behind their backs and

have devoured the man of low degree and oppressed the fatherlesse and the widow and have not had regard to the stranger which hath visited them in loving kindness but rather have sought to swallow up the innocent in his simplicity with their horrid abominable cruelty And in this the glory of the Lord hath been defaced and is defaced by all that walk in the crookedness of the imaginations of their own hearts strengthning themselves in their own wayes making Fences for their safegard in iniquity and Bulwarks for their strength in unrighteousness and yet calls upon the name of the Lord as if God had regard unto the cryes of the wicked who will punish the sinner in Zion and reward the evil-worker in Jerusalem And therfore all nations ought to be awakened lest the sons of men are cut off in the corruption of their wayes And thou above all Princes and Kings as the greatest in all parts of the earth oughtest to shine forth as the brightness of the Sun at noon day and as the chiefest of all nations in example of righteousness and purity of heart which will crown thee with everlasting honour far exceeding the honours of the Kingdoms of men and cause thy name never to be forgotten from generation to generation for ever to be remembred after thee by all the Lords people and servants of the living God that thy sound also may strike a dread through all the dead Worshippers of Images in al lquarters of the whole world and then it will come to pass that many will stand amazed at the excellency of thybeauty and renown and those that hate thee shall be tormentedbecause of thee and gnash their teeth at thy prosperity and lie down in restlesse pangs of perplexity And therefore for the glory of the Almighty Gods sake and that with it thou mayest be established and a holy seed after thee in perpetuall praise Arise and stand up and shine forth in the excellency of meeknesse and in the humblenesse patience and forbearance of thy heart and in this most noble and excellent understanding and choicest wisdome lissen for a season and incline thine ear in due time to that in thee which is not of the Kingdomes of men and behold from the Lord God I shew thee the coming of the Prophet in a Parable Like as the glory of the Sun arising in the East in mighty irresistable power dispersing and sending all the black clouds beyond the appearance of the West where place cannot hide their blackness as the Sun follows in his glorious flaming course making all to pass a way as in shame and great fear Oh what can stand before the brightnesse of the DAY is not all the first in a tottering frame when the glory of the most high breaks forth Men of strength may wonderfully strive and men of prudence dive deeply but no man is hid from the day Neither knoweth he the wisdome of the whole World from whence the breath of the wind cometh and out of what it breaketh No man hath descended into the deep to count the sands hid with the waters of the Ocean Who then can fathome wisdom to understand that which the natural never saw nor thought of Under this I conclude the whole world All flesh hath corrupted it's way before the Lord and the wisdome of the first man Adam is not regained forasmuch as the restauration hath been hid from ages which unto the desolate is tendered that a broken wall may not remain without repair in a whole Nation And behold it is coming it is coming and with blessing thou wilt be blessed and the seed of the whole Dominion if thou stop not the course of blessing from thine own head Many generations before thee would have rejoiced to have seen this day which is coming towards thee of good things if thou hearken to God and despitest not the Messengers and Ministers of his word but listenest with open ear to instruction that thou mayest be established for ever the Throne of righteousness to be the Lords and thou the instrument in the Lords hand whereby Iustice Mercy and Peace may be established and this know thee That the Lord God of Heaven aad Earth whose dread reacheth unto the ends of all Dominions of the earth Jehovah the Lord of Hosts is his Name can work without thee and beyond thee and over the heads of all powers who can change all hearts and affections in a moment and in the twinckling of an eye and make all affected onely with his own glory but my God is the unspeakable Fountain of mercy and long suffering who is risen to prove and try many people and behold he layes this work and is laying it now at thy gates one that loves thy soul is sent unto thee that canot flatter thee but speaks the simplicity of truth unto thee and not his own words as a lying divination But this is truth from him that dwelleth with the truth God is light and in him is no darkness at all who is arisen to try thee that thou mayst be proved whether in the pure tender love thou fingly standest or in the obstinacy restest as one sate down in a Chair of carved stone I say Thus is the Lord God arisen to try thee even as he is coming to make true proof of thy wayes and to know therein whether thou art able to bear and endure and pass a tryall of thy wayes in which the Lord who regardeth onely an humble heart will altogether sift thee as unto the bottome and prove thee whether thou standest as the holy Fathers and Kings did in the dayes of old as David who with an humble heart received the reproof and judgement of Nathan and many more who were precious patterns unto thee and Examples before thee May I be blamed in all this doth not Wisdome belong to the mighty and doth not counsel become the Kings Court and understanding the chiefest pallaces and hath God blessed me with his word and shewed me his wonders which are coming to pass and can I hide them from the King Hath God put understanding in my heart to understand the deep things which have been hid from ages and shall I darken and make void the blessing with silence Hath God shewed me the blessings of a people and the curse of a Nation and shall I bury this in the womb of obscurity and not publish the revelation of God so through a careless heart come to be numbred among the cursed for ever Nay nay let all men shoot at me with their arrows let their sword touch me and let death compass me on every hand rather than mine Inheritance of blessing I may loose from the hand of the Lord and peace to my conscience for ever And verily in this I know the hazard of much whilest in all I seek but the salvation of souls and that thou with many mayest come to the receiving of the immortall Treasure of Wisdome and can

rebel and tempt the Lord God although his mercies unto them were the greatest Yea I may say there was not a Nation that tasted of mercy as your fathers did eat and drink of salvation from many Enemies and deliverance from numberless afflictions yet how was it from age unto ages often in their streights they murmured and when they were at ease they waxed fat through mercies and kicked against God until Shiloh came the promise unto the Remnants of your Seed but he coming not according to your Fathers expectation even as the wonders of God in all ages were wrought contrary to the expectations or imaginations of the hearts of men and therefore they took counsel together and put him to death And thus the promise came unto many for without blood there could be no remission of sins although by the wilfulness of your Fathers in this matter ye have from that time been as a curse over the whole earth Neverthelesse for you there is a hope left yea for you a promise remains if yet ye return and enquire and seek diligently as in the morning and be found early and earnestly striving as in the timely season before the advantage of the day pass over your heads and ye be left as in the place of blindness where all your hope and expectation shall wither and be made fruitless as a thing of nought And therefore I say Not as you will have times and seasons and Dayes and Worships and Deliverances come to pass shall it come to pass unto you or be brought to pass concerning you but as the Word of the Lord God is and hath been the same from Ages which reacheth also unto this Age from the Dread of which the sons of men shall not escape nor find a hiding-place to rest themselves who walks in the wayes of uncleanness and doth traverse the paths of iniquity and unrighteousness And therefore wait for the word of the Lord God unto you that you may come to know your motion in righteousness that you may feel the vengeance removed which hath been long over your heads that thereby you may come toknow the redemption in your dayes and the restauration of God in the season of his appointed time until which in vain is all your Synagogue and Temple-worships and Altar-Offerings And therefore all people upon the face of the Earth Jew and Gentile Barbarian Scithian Bond and Free must all come to know that principle and measure of the gift of God which is in bondage in them to be made free by the powerfull operation of the work of the Lord through them which thousands and ten thousands for want of the good understanding are strangers unto and therefore are found actors daily in enmity to the motions of it and that is a dangerous state in whom the God of this world whom the Heathen worships hath blinded the eye of their minds mark hath blinded the eye of their minds whereby the whole world are but in the History out of the understanding of the Mystery and Power of godlinesse and life of the Prophets and holy men of God of old I say therefore unto all flesh living Keep silence and listen to the word of the Lord God in silence mark listen to hear the word of the Lord in spirit in silence when all reason and earthly consultations and disputings and questionings in the mind is cast out in the bed in the vineyards in the secret closet in the fields and then it shall come to pass to your remembrance that there is something in man which convinceth a man of the evil of his wayes and that will shew a man the iniquities of his youth and the sinnes of his riper years and bring all unto his remembrance in the fight of the Lord and then it will be seen that not any Sacrifice or Oblation hath blotted out any one sin out of the remembrance of God when as man in his own Conscience is accused for all yea then is the sacrifice short of blotting out iniquity and his prayers short of removing his transgressions nay further If a man should offer ten thousand Rivers of Oyl and the blood of a thousand Bulls and He-Goats and as many Rams and were it the Fruit of his body for the sinne of his soul it cannot purge the heart or cleanse the spirit and therefore not clear the conscience from the just accusation of God in the hidden parts of a mans mind and secret meditations of his spirit and if in this state a man perisheth where is the refuge which he shall flie unto in the last hour and in what standeth the hope of life everlasting all sober hearts in this may read the danger of ignorance and peril of blindness in the lust of sinne and unrighteousnesse out of the true understanding of the true worship and service of God And forasmuch as wisdom removeth the vails of darknesse and openeth the path of iniquity and leadeth to the Fountain of righteousnesse and bringeth to the Well-spring of truth I hereby hold forth the ground thereof and from whence it springs and how it comes to be received and stood in to the honour of the living God and beautifying the Face of the just and renown of the upright The dreadfull God of Heaven and Earth who is a spirit infinite who is light is the Vertue Fountain and Treasure of wisdome peace and life everlasting Mark and read with understanding God who hath been a stranger unto the Inhabitants of the Earth is light who searcheth every heart and tryeth the reins and the hidden part of the bowels hath sent his onely begotten Son a Light into the world whose light shineth in the consciences of every man that cometh into the world by which light in a mans conscience he is convinced and condemned for his wickednesse This light convinceth a man in his own heart and understanding of lying and swearing and pride and envy and persecution and dissimulation and murder and whoredome and all unrighteousnesse and uncleanness both of flesh and spirit This light is pure which sheweth a man every unclean spot of his life and unto this light in a mans conscience must a man turn in his mind to be guided by it in his heart which cometh from God who is light and by it which cometh from God who is the Fountain a man will be led to the first principle of the good understanding that is to say unto the fear of the Lord which is the beginning of wisdome which Solomon the wise King spoke which was not only his words but also it was his life whereby he came to grow in the wonderfull Understanding and admired wisdome which Regions round about were amazed at And unto this day the Lord God is the same to all that fear his Name in truth and his loving kindnesse is not shortned not his mercy and favour slackned but as man hath slackned his steps in diligence waiting upon the Lord in the fear
