Burrough, Edward, 1634-1662. 1654 (1654) Wing B6057; Thomason E733_5; ESTC R206899 28,263 40

of Faith which is nigh thee in thy mouth and in thy heart that Preaching we do own for Faith comes by the hearing of this Word Preached and the Prayer with the Spirit of truth we do own for that is not in word to be seen of men but led to that not by Custom Form and Tradition but by the eternal Spirit which proceeds from God which hath free recourse to God which God heareth and doth accept for there iniquity is purged out of the heart and is not regarded for he that regards iniquity in his heart God will not hear his Prayer but the Preaching and Praying of your Hireling I do deny for they are abomination to the Lord for his Preaching leads from God stands in his own Will in his own Time in Form Custom and Tradition and your Souls are not refreshed by it neither is true Faith known among you for how can he being evil speak good things A corrupt Tree cannot bring forth good fruit said he Who cried Wo unto them that said and did not in which generation he is how can he teach and direct toward true Religion being he denies the Corner stone the first Principle of Religion which is the foundation which no other can any lay the Light of God which hath enlightened every one that comes into the world which he denies to have enlightened every one poor people I do pitty your souls God is my witness to see you lie in darkness in ignorance and blindness and in deadness under your dead Hireling and under his dead traditional Preaching your wisdom reason and dark minds is only fed and strengthned by his preaching and you all are but building upon the sand hearing but not doing and we who have suffered the loss and have witnessed the destruction of that building do now Declare freely against it where it is standing for we know the depth height and breadth of all your Profession and of all your carnal Worship and Observances and the Word of God is as a fire which will burn up and as a hammer which will beat down all your imagined Worships and carnal Ordinances And his Praying is abomination to the Lord for it is as theirs was which the Son of God cryed Wo against which stood Praying in the Synagogues and which made long Prayers and the Praying of all such we do Deny for their Prayers is as the Scribes and Pharisees was who were called of men Masters as they are now and who were sayers and not doers as your Hireling is therefore all you people consider and diligently weigh these things If I Declare to you the Truth own it without respect of persons if I speak a lye let me be accounted as accursed for ever and all you simple ones who are seeking the living among the dead who are in the simplicity seeking after the truth and yet are bewitched to observe that which God never commanded and to seek God in that way which he was never found in for Christ alone is the way to the Father and he is but one from generation to generation in all generations for your sakes do I lay open the deceits of your Hireling and chief Priest who is in the way of Balaam following the wages of unrighteousness and do advise you as from the mouth of the Lord to cease from man whose breath is in his nostrils and to cease from all your customary carnal Observances

word persecuted them that witnessed the Power the horrible filthy thing is committed among you and you love to have it so but what will you do in the end thereof you are in the generation of your forefathers who spoke good of the false Prophets but persecuted the true Prophets so it is now among you he that hath the Word of the Lord from the mouth of the Lord to declare unto you him you revile and mock and scorn and persecute but he that speaks the imagination of his own heart from the Saints conditions him you own and hear and here you shew your selves to be them which Christ spoke of which would receive them that come in their own name but will not receive him that cometh in the name of his Father Repent and turn to the Lord lest his judgments come upon you and destroy you with an utter destruction the day of the Lord is terrible and dreadful which will come upon the wicked and upon all the workers of iniquity Be ashamed ye Heathens you maintainers of the greedy dumb dogs and upholders of the horrible filthy thing the persecuters of the righteous seed the contemners of the Just the generations of Serpents who cries Let Barrabas go free ye generation of Hypocrites who professes God but persecutes the Son of God where he is made manifest of this Generation in which you are Shall all the righteous blood-shed be required even from Abel Repent and cease from all your former waies and doings from Pride Drunkenness Covetousness and Oppression from Lying Swearing from Mirth and Wantonness and vain Pleasures for the day of the Lord cometh that shal burn as an Oven and the Proud and all that do wickedly shall be as stubble fully dry for the Lord will be avenged of his enemies and render vengeance in flames of fire upon all that know not God and that obeys not the
