of miseries and the infelicity of unbelieving men come hard by even at the door 10. Whosoever therefore rejoyceth him with the unbelieving wicked world and o Jer. 6.8 Ezek. 13. promiseth or pronounceth happinesse peace and prosperity unto her or to her Adherents the same man speaketh lies who so boasteth him of grace and yet abideth in his ungodly being he blasphemeth God in his righteous judgement p Esa 52. Ezek. 36. Rom. 2. and with blasphemy dishonoreth his holy Name For God is a God that loveth Righteousnesse and hateth all yea all q Psal 5. Prov. 3. ungodly being 11. He is holy r Lev. 19. 1 Pet. 1. and will have us to be holy also and that we to the laud and praise of his glory should Å¿ 1 Cor. 15. Eph. 4. Col. 3. carry or bear his image and like being and not the image of the devill nor the vaine being of the world wherein we do mock and reproach him 12. We are called through Jesus Christ and his service of love unto God and his upright Righteousnesse t Joh. 15. Phil. 1. because we should bring forth the fruits of God and not to the devill through the Antichrist the devills child by whom we joyne to the world u Sap. 1.2 Joh. 8. 1 Joh. 3. and bring forth the fruits of the devill whose end or recompence is the everlasting condemnation x Mat. 25. Heb. 10. 2 Pet. 3. and the judgement of the raging fire which cometh upon the wicked world and all wretched men that despise the Salvation of God and believe not that vve ought to live the righteousnesse of God with whole heart soul and body 13. Now this passed over I hope there are yet many good of will and contrite of heart which have a desire to do the will of the Lord and which do stedfastly believe Gods promises and hope thereon and y Rom. 8. 1 Cor. 1. Tit. 2. 1 Pet. 1. so vvith patience wait for the coming of Jesu Christ to their justifying and delivering from their sins z Luk. 11. whereby they might serve God without feare all their life long in such holinesse and righteousnesse as are pleasing unto him 14. Hereunto vve are to have regard to the intent Gods promises may be to our salvation a Mat. 5. Rom. 2. and not to a rigorous judgement on us as they are threatned to be to the ungodly 15. If any man therefore count the everlasting God true in his promises let him not look back on that which is past b Luk. 9. Phil. 3. but have regard to that which is to come and believe God that he will not neglect but openly shew his Salvation 16. He will remember his holy Covenant and c Esa 40.42.60.61.62 Jer. 23 31.33 Ezek. 36.37 be gracious unto his people and set them up again according as he hath spoken it heretofore d Luk. 1. by the mouth of his holy Prophets 17. Let no man reckon these things vain or as though nothing shall come or grow of them that he be not intangled by his blindnesse as it came to passe heretofore with many vvhen the Lord would punish the ungodly 18. At which time alwaies the most part of people were blinded e Gen. 6.7.18.19 Esa 6. Sap. 2. and had no regard hereunto before it fell upon them in such sort that they could no way escape the vengeance of the wrath of God 19. Which punishment God in sundry sorts caused to come upon the ungodly and are all set before us for example f 1 Cor. 10. that we being mindfull of the things to come should exercise our selves in the most holiest belief of godlinesse to the end we might g Heb. 5. find grace before God and so be preserved from the plagues of the ungodly h Lu. 21. and from the terrible malediction and horrible end of the last wicked world 20. Which plagues i Dan. 12. Mat. 24. shall be divers and more horrible then aforetime because the time is otherwise as being much wickeder and more manifoldly k 4. Esd 14. Mat. 24. increased in wickednesse 21. For behold it was another time and a different punishment upon the maliciousnesse of men when the Lord l Gen. 11. confounded and scattered the workmen at Babel after which time of punishment Abraham m Gen. 12. found grace before the Lord then that time was when the Lord n Gen. 6.7 2 Pet. 2. punished the world with the floud before which time of that punishment Noe with his family found grace to be a Remnant before the Lord. 22. In like manner it was also another time and punishment upon Sodoma and Gomorra o Gen. 19. 2 Pet. 2. when Lot the righteous was lead out thence and found grace before God to his preservation 23. Furthermore consider the different punishments also of Jerusalem and her Inheritants how that God punished them for their sins cause p Vide Libros Reg. Proph. in locis plurimis neverthelesse they alwaies which were upright of heart and turned them from the iniquity found grace before God 24. Now all this aforegoing being set behind and having regard unto that which is to come let every one turn him to the Lord the God of Israel who hath made heaven and earth q Jer. 18.25.35 Ezek. 14.18 4 Esd 14. and put away the abominations of idolatrous phantasies farre from his heart and so amend his course of life 25. Let every one love the good out of his whole heart mind and thoughts and take heed of the perversity of the wicked world wherein all impiety and the most horrible abominations doe bear sway r Mat. 11. Lu. 10.11 whose plagues and punishments shall now in the last time be out of measure much more horrible then any aforementioned according to the Scripture 26. Wherefore let every one labour for an upright heart before God and towards his neighbour Å¿ Esa 55. Jer. 29. Heb. 5. and seek of the Lord to find grace in his sight whereby to inherite now in this day the bountifull mercy of God in the preservation of the righteous that he perish not in the blind errours of the abominable and wicked world CHAP. IIII. 1. He willeth the wise to regard how the unbelievers do proceed in the evill 2. and the Lovers of Righteousnesse in the good 6. It is now no time to sleepe 8. But to labour for an upright heart 11. It is wisdome to buy the good things whiles they are best cheape 13. The World esteemeth not the true Vertues 15. The Beliefe 17. Hope 20. and Love 22. But the God fearing wise are to take the more heed that their Lamps be not without oyle 26. The world contendeth for the knowledge more then for the godlinesse it selfe 29. Many that know not the mans fall from God will yet speak much of Repentance c. 31. but it is all unprofitable 33.
H. N. found no upright people of the Lord yet all contended to the Lords Communalty and defaced others 41. Cruell persecutions 47. By meanes of contentions many turned from their zeale whom he lamenteth OYe wise who according to the word of a Dan. 7.9.12 Daniel do regard this and understand the same lift now up b Luk. 21. your heads behold c Mat. 24. Luk. 21. and consider for whiles the children of unbelief which are minded to errour doe love the darknesses more then the light believe the lies through their ignorance rather then the truth cleave rather to the world and her errour then to God and his Righteousnesse and do more incline to the conceiving of their owne cogitations out of the minde of their flesh then to the Salvation in the Spirit Therefore doe they also follow after the same and estrange their hearts the longer the more from the truth and from the light of life and Godlinesse where through they are now e 2 Pet. 2. shut in with bands of darkenesse withholding and sheltering themselves with their desire lust and will under the workes of iniquity where out they gather unto themselves f Rom. 2. a treasure d Joh. 3. of wickednesse for a terrible judgement of g Esa 66. Judith 16. Eccl. 7. 2 Pet. 3. the violence of the fire of the last plagues which now doe come over the wicked world and over all malicious unhappy men 2. But in the mean time whiles now the ungodly increase in the worst the lovers of righteousnesse do contrary-wise increase in the good be they who or wheresoever they be h Rom. 6. Col. 3. they die from the evill and grow up in the good so as they increase daily more and more in the life of godlinesse 3. They depart from the ungodly nature and do passe into the nature of God and Christ i Rom. 8. and all in the spirit according to the spirit or mind of the love and of the requiring of her obedience for to live the righteousnesse which God esteemeth and hath promised 4. These have their sustaining under the obedience of the love in the works of righteousnesse and do wait with patience k Rom. 8. Heb. 10. for the promise which God to-fore hath made by the mouth l Esa 44.60.62 Jer. 23.31.33 Ezek. 36.37 of his holy Prophets and to believe God that he is true and keepeth his Covenant which he hath made with Abraham Isaac and Jacob yea the living God of Jsrael performeth his promises on m Rom. 9. Gal. 3. Heb. 2. the Seed of Abraham even as he hath sworn unto their Fathers and sheweth thereby that he is their God and the God of their seed for evermore 5. Hereon doe they trust and towards this do they passe forth in the spirit through the illumination n 2 Pet. 1. of the upright being which standeth before them in the sight of their hearts to a continuall joy and consolation of all godly men 6. Behold the risings of both these up to wit of the godlinesse and of the ungodlinesse shall in their time be made known and in two kinds of people o Rom. 2. 2 Thes 1. become manifest that is to say the godlinesse in the well-willers of the righteousnesse and the ungodlinesse in the malicious Let every one that loveth the righteousnesse take now heed to his time and let him p Rom. 13. Eph. 5. not sleep whiles it is time to wake 7. Let no man lie still upon his old Couch in the darknesse when the day cometh on and the light shineth bright and cleare wherethrough men may see and perceive plainly how to obtain the riches of the good that the darknesses cover him not nor the abominations of ungodlinesse overwhelm him and that he be not like the erring ignorant world or the vain conceited wise of the letter-learned who doe boast much of vvisdome knovvledge and righteousnesse and yet are far from the q 1. Cor. 1.3 wisdome of God and from the righteousnesse r Rom. 10. that God esteemeth 8. Therefore labour for an upright heart in the love that in those daies vvhen the refreshing Å¿ Act. 3. cometh from the face of God to the preservation of the righteous and when all ungodly being bestirreth and prepareth it self to destroying you may be preserved from the horrible plagues of the ungodly 9. For Gods righteous judgement shall not be such as that any man shal be able to hide or to cover himself before it but it shall disclose and t 1 Cor. 4. lay open the counsell of every ones heart whether they be well-willers unto him or not and the righteous shall u Pro. 17. Zach. 13. Sap. 3. Eccl. 2. through the fire or furnace of humility be purged cleansed and purified even as the fine gold in the furnace of the Goldsmith 10. Behold this is shewed unto you out of the inclination of love therfore be warned before it come to passe x Mat. 24. Luke 21. 1 Pet. 5. vvatch and pray cleave to the good love vvisdome and instruction and love the light to the vertue of life that the y Joh. 8.12 sleep and darknesses take you not 11. Use wisdome now ye wise and you that have understanding z Mat. 35. get ye now oyle in your vessells a Esa 55. it is to be had for nought which the world in generall together with the unwise and such as are without understanding b Esa 5. 4 Esd Heb. 20. do utterly contemn esteem vile and despise yea tread under their feet 12. If therefore any among you be wise and hath understanding let him esteem of this oyle c 1 Joh. 2. or anointing of Salvation so much the better and the more worth for it is spoken for a Proverb When any ware or Merchandise is at lowest value then will men passe most for it For then there is greatest vantage and gain to be made and gotten by it 13. Therefore consider now the time ye that have understanding what is there now I pray you of smaller value or what is there lesse accounted of then the upright vertue and the godly vvisdome out of the love d Esa 59. 4 Esd 14. for the truth is fallen in the street 14.
