TITLE: A Question Propounded To The Rulers, Teachers, And People Of The Nation Of England, For Them Singly To Answer In Their Hearts
And Consciences, In The Fear And Dread Of The Mighty God Of Heaven And Earth; Whose Mighty Arm Of Power Is Stretched Out In
This Nation, First To Overturn What Stands In His Way, And Then To Establish (In The Place Thereof) What He Hath Purposed
In His Heart. And This Is The Thing Which The Lord Hath Determined To Do, Both Particularly In Persons, And Generally Throughout
The Earth; Namely, To Pull Down The Mighty From Their Seats, And To Exalt The Humble And Meek (Who Are Made Such By The Presence
And Power Of His Life In Them), That He Alone May Be Exalted In The Spirits Of His People, And Throughout The Earth. And This
Work Hath The Lord Begun Already; For His Great And Notable Day Hath Appeared, And Breaketh Forth Apace; Though The Eye Which
Is Closed Cannot See It, Nor The Benumbed Sense Feel It. But He That Hath An Ear, Let Him Hear The Sound Of The Lord's Trumpet,
Which Saith, In The Mighty Breath Of His Spirit Of Life, Awake! Ye Dead, And Stand Up To Judgment; For The Day Of Recompence
Is Come; The Day Of The Eternal Vengeance Of Our God, And The Day Of His Everlasting Mercy And Plentiful Redemption. The Question
Is As Followeth. in Works of the long-mournful and sorely-distressed Isaac Penington(Volume 1)
