SEVEN THUNDERS Uttering their Voices, and the Seven LAST TRUMPETS Preparing to sound in the Spirit of Jealousies, (which is jealous for Zion,) Proclaiming the great, and notable, and terrible day, of jehovah the Mighty God of trembling Israel's Camp, in which no Flesh shall be saved but for the Elects Sake. Being an Alarm to all the Inhabitants of the Earth especially to the dwellers in Sodom and Egypt, and all Inhabiters of Babylon, whose perpetual down-fall is nigh at hand. THe great and Mighty day of God is appeared, wherein every man's works and ways, Worships and Religion, Professions and practices, words and actions shall be declared and made manifest, and tried of what sort soever they be, and none shall be able to hid himself from the bright Splendour of its Glory for God who is a Consuming fire, is arisen and coming to pass through all, and to try all with his grounded Staff, and with Battles of Shakes, and woe be to him that is covered with a Covering, and not of my Spirit saith the Lord, For I the Mighty God am come to judge the World with Equity, and the people with Truth, and no Weapon form against my work shall prosper, for I have looked down from heaven over all the ways, worships, and great professions of Religions amongst the children of men, & have found the greatest part in falsehood, Hypocrisy, and Idolatry, and the abomination stands where it ought not in the inward parts, where I have required Truth and uprightness, and they are bending their tongues like their bow for lies, and are not valiant for the truth upon Earth, for which cause my out-streached Arm is Revealed, which shall break in pieces Nations, even for my seeds sake, and that man or people that will not serve me, shall utterly perish, I the Lord have spoken it, for I am arisen in my dreadful power and great Glory, to lay waste all high Mountains, and strong Towers, and to bring down every fenced Wall and the tall Ceaders, strong Oaks, and pleasant pictures shall fall down at the shaking of my hand, and I will s●●in the pride of the Glory of all Flesh, and bring the Honourable into contempt, and spoil the beauty of the great Whore, which hath sat upon Nations, and the Beast and false Prophet, with all her Merchants, I will plague and torment her; and they shall know that I am the Lord that searcheth the heart and tryeth the Reins, who will reward every man according to his works. Therefore all People's Kindred's and Nations throughout the whole world (that lies in wickedness) Awake awake to Righteousness, and stand up in fear and dread, and tremble yea before the Almighty God, and come out of Babylon, come out of Babylon, flee, haste, and run, for the day of Vengeance is come upon the Inhabitants of Babylon, it is come as a Snare, as a snare is the day of the Lord come, and you will not believe it; Arise, arise, stand up yea Armies of the Aliens Gog and Magog, Gomer and his bands, and all the Hosts of the Philistines, and all you Sodomites, and Ismaelites, that belong to the Coasts of Egypt and Babylon; The Trumpet of the Almighty God is sounded out of Zion his holy Mountain; Alarm, alarm, prepare, prepare to the Battle of the great God, all ye hosts of the Heathen, the standard of his zeal and fury and Indignation is lifted up against you, and you shall be beaten, and broken, and scattered and trampled down to dust saith the Lord God Almighty: And all you Bulls of Bashan, you are for the Slaughter, and all you tall Ceaders and strong Oaks, you are fuel for the fire, and all you senced Walls, you shall be broken down, and all you pleasant Pictures you shall be defaced; for a spoiler is come into all your dwellings and you perceive it not, a fire is kindled, and you know it not, an Axe is hewing and you hear it not, a sword is drawn and a bow is bend by the Arms of the Almighty and you see it not, Awake awake you heathen out of your sleep, and come up to the Valley of Jehosaphat, for the Almighty God will plead with you there, for he is coming from Bozrah with died garments, and he will trample you in his fury as one that treadeth upon mortar, & you shall be as chaff before the whirlwind, all ye Inhabitants of Babylon Egypt, and Ethiopia, and all you Sodomites, and Edomites; Cry and howl ye Mountains, tremble ye Oaks and Ceaders, fall down ye fenced Walls, Roar ye Bulls of Bashan, for the great and dreadful day of the Eternal mighty God is at hand, which shall be upon every one that is proud and upon every one that is high and lifted up, and they shall be abased; Therefore hear, hear ye that lie upon your beds of Ivory, and stretch yourselves upon your Couches, that chant at the sound of the Viol, and drink wine in bowls, and are not grieved for the afflictions of joseph: Even all you that are at ease in unrighteousness, if you have an ear hear, and if you have an eye, see what you are doing. For thus saith the Lord God, you who are at ease in the ways of ungodliness, and wickedness, are the afflictors of joseph, and the opressors of Israel (for it is written I will lead joseph like a flock, and I will s● the Solitary in families) look ye to it, for I have determined to break in ●●ices the oppressor, and to bring my Son out of Egypt, what will ye now do ye potsherds? will ye venture in battle against your maker? shall ye not then be broken to pieces? am not I a consuming fire and you as brambles, and thorns, and stubble, before me? 〈…〉 what you do, ye ungodly men if you fight against Israel you shall surely fall▪ I the Lord have spoken it, for I am arisen as an Eagle that fluttereth over her young, to defend my people, and my seed shall grow and prosper and replenish the Earth, and all that strive against them shall be confounded, would you make void my decree and determinations, and the words that I have spoken by my prophets since the world began that the seed of the Woman should bruise the Serpent's head (the Dragon's power which makes war with the Lamb, the harmless suffering seed) and did I not say, that the seed of Abraham, should be as the stars of Heaven, and as the sand of the sea shore for multitude, and that the Earth should be filled with my knowledge as the waters cover the Sea; And would you strive to hinder this my unalterable decree? is it not written, why do the Heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing, the Kings of the Earth set themselves, and the Rulers take Counsel together against the Lord, and against his anonited (make that) saying, let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their Cords from us: Hear ye deaf, and see ye blind, who are mine anointed, but them who have received the unction from me the Holy One, which teacheth them all things, even my spirit which leadeth them into all truth, in which I am coming in ten thousands of my Saints, to reprove and convince all that are ungodly, of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed and of their hard speeches which thy have spoken against me: And I will break in pieces Nations, and give people for their life, therefore touch not my Anointed, and do my Prophets no harm, but be still ye heathen and know that I am God, I will be exalted in the earth and my name shall be great in all Nations, and fears and terrors, misery, and destruction, shall come as a flood upon all the workers of Iniquity, and my fury as a whirlwind shall sweep them away; and joseph's bough shall spread over the wall, like a fruitful vine; for I will cast out the Heathen, and plant him for ever, for I am unchangeable, he that hath an ear to hear, let him hear; As I live saith the Lord God, I have sworn by myself, and I will perform it, Jacob shall grow, and Israel shall increase, and Joseph shall flourish, and they shall fill the face of the whole Earth, but I will destroy the workers of Iniquity out of it, & root out the memorial of the ungodly, the seed of the evil doers shall never be renowned; for I am risen, I am risen as a consuming fire, to make a full end, and my flame burneth even to the top of the Mountains, and my coals in the foundations of the Hills, and the unfruitful earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy; I am arisen in the greatness of my strength, to lay waist to consume and to destroy, the sinners out of it; yea, I am arisen, I am arisen as a Giant to run his race, refreshed with new Wine, and as a mighty man of War, that shouteth to the Battle, yea I am arisen as the noise of many Thunders, and as the fierceness of Lightning, and I am crying like a woman in travel, to be eased of mine Adversaries; yea and my voice shall be terrible to the Nations; I am arisen, I am arisen, like a Lion out of his thicket, and like an old Lion that is greedy for the prey. And like a Lioness that is bereft of her whelps, and I will utter my voice, I will roar, and the earth shall be shaken at the sound thereof: and the pillars of heaven shall tremble, and the sea shall roar, and be troubled at the noise of my dreadful thunders, with which I will thunder upon the wicked, yea, I am arisen to take vengeance, to avenge, to give a recompense, to render judgements and indignation, plague upon plague, torment upon torment, thunders upon thunders, vials upon vials, wrath upon wrath, earthquake, upon earthquake, trumpet after trumpet, war upon war, blood upon blood, slain upon slain, heap upon heaps. Therefore, hear, fear, quake and tremble, all ye workers of iniquity, howl, lament, and roar, and be ye horribly astonished, ye heathen that are at ease for behold I am risen to plead with all flesh, yea I will plead with you all from the highest to the lowest for I have remembered my seed which you have long oppressed, yea their cry is come into mine ears and hath moved my bowels towards them, which burns against you ye hardhearted and rebellious for my determination is to make a full end of iniquity, transgression and sin, and no flesh shall stand in opposition against me, who am a consuming fire. For behold I am coming in ten thousands of my saints, yea in thousands of thousands, of those poor people which have been long as trodden down, peeled, rob and spoilt, even of those (whom the scorners of this world, have termed Quakers) that trembles at my word, they are them with whom I will fill the world with Cities, when the transgressors are destroyed out of it; therefore hear O my peole that tremble at my word, thus saith your eternal mighty God, JEHOVAH is my name, fear ye not the fury of the Adversary and the Oppressor, though death and hell, the sea and the grave pursue you; they must arise and will arise against you, (O my people (that are poor and contrite in spirit) but fear them not, for the day hastens (as the woman that is near the time of her delivery) in which death, hell, the sea and the grave, must give up all that in them is, and death and hell shall be cast into the lake that burns for ever and ever, and all this ungodliness, Idolatry, and darkness that is now arisen, or can yet arise, I will trample in mine anger, yea I will tread it down down, down, into the pit, into the bottomless pit, whence it shall no more rise up for ever, yea I will set them down with the great Dragon, I will set them all down that rise up against you (O my poor and despised people) therefore fear them not neither be afraid of their snares, gins, or traps, which they have, or shall set, or make to catch the sheep of my pasture (which are men) for I have determined to break them and their snares with them, and they shall know that ye are my people, and that I the mighty Jehovah of Israel am your God, that is my name amongst you this day, for I will plead with all flesh, and it shall fall before me: Therefore fear not their Kings nor their Princes, their Parliaments nor their Rulers, for I will trample upon Kings and Princes as upon Mortar in this the day of my fury. But trust in my name and in it dwell for ever, for in my name is everlasting strength, and take you no thought how all this dark power of superstition, Idolatry, and madness shall be subdued, for I the mighty Jehovah, the God of trembling Israel's Camp, will break their Idolatrous worship and dash their Idols, (on which they are made▪) to pieces, and none of their Kings, nor their Princes, their Bishops, nor their Rulers, shall deliver them, nor themselves from the stroke of my hand. Therefore be still O my people, in the cleft of the Rock of my power and dwell quietly in my everlasting strength (O my despised) for the Harvest of the glory of my Seed is very near, for I am now dividing of Wheat from the Tares and the Chaff, the Sheep from the Goats, the clean from the unclean, throughout all the Nations o● the Earth, And my mighty Angels stands ready with their Golden Trumpets to give the last sound through the whole Creation for the Resurrection of the dead; And I have prepared another Angel which stands ready after them to cry with a loud voice, he that is Holy let him be holy still, and he that is Filthy let him be filthy still, for time shall be no longer, but all that live and abide shall dwell in Eternity, Amen hallelujah, even so come, O Lord Jesus saith the bride, and him that is a thirst saith come quickly Amen hallelujah, Glory in the highest Amen. Because thy time is short O Satan dost thou rage As if the Ocean deep, thy malice could not suage, But be it known to thee Leviathan, My hook shall bring thee down, within a span, For with my hand, i'th' Pit I will the seal, Thy rage on Earth no more shalt thou reveal; This is my purpose, and my just decree, To raise my Holy seed, and make an end of thee. Which from the Serpent came, the Dragon and the Beast, That all my whole Creation, for ever be at rest. ALL people who have any honest desires towards the living God, his Truth and Righteousness, make haste and flee out of Babylon, and come into the Light of the Lord, that you may see his Controversy with her, and be Redeemed from all Iniquity, and declare in Zion the vengeance of the Lord against her, for his plagues and vials of wrath, are coming on Babylon like hail, and the swift Arrows of the Almighty are entered into her bowels, Therefore, woe, woe to the Inhabitants of the Earth (that will not come unto the name of the Lord) because of the Plagues and judgements which are yet to come, some woes are past, but there are many other to come suddenly, Blessings, and Honour, and Glory, unto him who lives and Reigns for ever and for ever more Amen. The stout hearted are spoilt, they slept their Sleep, Psal. 76. But for the Elects sake, those days shall be shortened. Through an Earthen Vessel called William Bayly. W. The END
