The voice of thunder, or, The sound of a trumpet giving a certain sound, saying, Arise ye dead, and come to judgement the light, to guide you to judge out the evil, that righteousnesse you may learn, and so come to have a true discerning betwixt the precious and the vile, betwixt those that in truth serve the Lord, and those that pretend to worship him, a day, when in truth they serve him not, but grieve his spirit : with a few words to them whose faces are Sion-ward, travelling to the good land of rest, whereunto those that believe not in the light cannot enter : with a dear, tender visitation to the holy, meek, suffering seed, which is already entered and entering in, where none can make afraid / by Humphrey Bache.

THe unbelieving, despisers, adulterous and gain-saying generation, must have signes, and wonders shewed to them, as in the dayes of old; and notwithstanding these things, was and is shewed & held forth unto them, yet will they not believe, and they that held forth the signes, and types, and figures, and shadows of good things to come, which is come, and coming (in the midst of us) were in the life and power of him who was in the Church, in the wilderness, who said, six dayes shalt thou labour, &c. and the first day is one of the six, and is not the true Christians or Israelites holy sabbath which they keep, whose dwelling place is in the end of all signes, and likenesses, Christ Jesus, the Lord and King of righteousness, the Prince of life and Peace, the light of the world, the Lord of the Sabbath, the day which the everlasting God hath blessed is the rest, the quiet, holy habitation, into which the Lord the King of glory is entered and come in, and hath taken up his abode in the midst of Sion the holy, beloved City of our solemnity; O ye virgins, daughters of Sion, many are those that seek to enter, to devour, defile, and destroy, and make a prey upon the hidden precious treasure, (thats hid, and laid up for the Babes, Lambs, and tender little little ones) but they shall not be able, whilst the good watchman, with his bright eye, (the Armour) stands upon his guard in the watch Tower, or in the gate of the City, to espy out his enemies, and salute his friends, who enter in the walls of Salvation, where the valiant young men are walking in the greatness of their strength, and their resting place is very glorious.

Wherefore, O you Babes, and faithful followers of the Lamb in the fellowship of his sufferings, be valiant, and faithful, and keep your resting place, holy, pure, and clean, watch, and let nothing enter, that would hurt or defile, the rest; keep it holy, the Sabhath day, the Lord is come, his Threne is set in the midst, who had a body prepared him, that suffered without the gate; come, let us go forth, proclaiming his Name (among the heathen) that is very glorious in the midst of his holy Temples, bearing his reproaches, having the same mind that was, and is, the same in him who is the Lord, the end of all signes, types, figures, shadowes, ceremonies, ordinances, immitations, remem∣brances, likenesses, the substance, Christ, the rest, (within the vail) in us the hope, and Life, and Crown, and joy of our strength, and glory; so run, that ye may ob∣tain, Remember that ye keep holy the Sabbath, the rest, into which you are entered, and entring, O ye children, and Babes of the light of the world, So farewell.
