Shewing the way that leadeth to salvation: with the difference betwixt the two seeds, the one of Mount Sinai, which tendeth to bondage; and the other, which is the immortal seed of God, begotten by the immortal word, which liveth and abideth for ever. Being as Isaac was, the childe of the promise, and of Jerusalem which is from above ... The difference betwixt the living word and the letter. R. F.

original is the Word which was before all tongues which opens tongues their Gospel is Jesus Christ the lamb of God prepared before the world was which was before the World was salvation is in God the Spirit is within them and they are the sons of God that are guided by his Spirit The Spirit is not in the Letter but it is within as it was in them that spoke forth the Scriptures So all people weigh and try your Teachers and let the Scriptures be your rule which you doe profess in words the life of the Scriptures is the Saints rule and guide within them the World professeth the Letter to be their rule yet walk contrary to it the Saints baptisme is with one Spirit into one body the worlds baptism is in sprinkling a little Water which they say they baptise into the Church withall there is not one example among the Saints for them to practise such a thing yet professing the Letter to be the rule they act contrary to it Oh blind Hypocrites the blind leads the blind so both fall into the ditch The bread the Saints break is the body of Christ and the Cup they drink is the blood of Christ and are all made to drink into one Spirit and the Cup the World take is a little Bread and Wine and they call that a Sacrament which there is no Scripture for and so shew forth the spirit of error who hath an ear to hear may hear and who can reach to these things may receive them the Ministers made by the will of God their fountain is God A Letter of James Nayler to severall Friends about Wakefield JAmes a prisoner of Jesus Christ unto all that love the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ every where grace and peace be multiplyed from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ My dear hearts you whom the Lord hath manifested so much love unto as to call you out of sin and death and the world all the delights and pleasures of the world which fades away up to himself where is joy unspeakable pleasures and riches that endure for evermore Dear friends watch and be sober that you may hear the voice of your beloved when he calleth and let not the precious proffers of the love of God be tendred in vain while you have an ear open to the world you cannot hear the voice of God so that you have bin made to groan under it how long have you been deceived by it all your time promising peace fulness and satisfaction but have bin brought to cry out of oppression and deceit and your cries are come before the Lord of Sabbaths who is your rest and he is now appeared to deliver you and set you free from bondage that you may serve him alone And now take heed of consulting with your old master hath the Lord been so mercifull unto you as that he hath set your faces out of Sodom and Egypt towards the promised land O take heed of looking back left you be taken captive and led back again and so you come short of redemption and your faith fail you and so you come short of the promise for unbelief cannot enter into the rest but you Dear friends put on resolution put on strength be valiant for your freedome cast off every weight follow your Captain the Lord Jesus Christ who for the joy set before him indured the cross despised the shame and so entred into rest and glory Take heed of halting between God and the World what agreement can there be or what peace while you are married to the world Your thoughts turn in thither and you are adulterated from God who gives you all good things as so many tokens of his love hereby is the broken language brought forth and you cannot speak the pure language of the land of rest And while you give way to that in you which leads you to look back to what is behind you you keep your selves in the wilderness and darkness and lose your way and know not where you are grieving the holy Spirit of the Lord which hath appeared unto you to guide you to but O friends mind your guide and follow him Arise shine your light is come and the glory of the Lord is come upon you the night is far spent the day is at hand even the day of Sions deliverance Arise come away all you that love her come off from the World and worldly things come into the life lie no longer in death and dead things Awake thou that sleepest and stand up from the dead that Christ may give thee light Come forth come forth of all created things witness your redemption to all the world that you are redeemed from the earth upto God out of all kindreds tongues people and nations to reign as Kings and Priests for ever above the world sin and death triumphing and treading upon all that would take you captive This is the day of your deliverance own it with the loss of all fading pleasures make it appear to all the world this is the day you waited for even the day of your joy but of the worlds sorrow A day of blackness and gloominess a day of fear and trouble to them that oppress you a day wherein the Kingdome of Jesus Christ shall be exalted and all the kingdoms and powers of the earth shaken a day wherein the Lord will avenge the power of him that is too strong for him Rejoyce rejoyce ye meek of the earth shout for joy ye poor despised ones whom your Brethren have troden upon and have cast you out and you have been made their mocking-stocks for the truths sake Sing and rejoyce the voice of a King is amongst you and he will marry you to himself in righteousness purity and holiness and will rejoyce over you as a bridegroom over the bride and you shall be for a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord and a royall Diademe in the hand of your God O my dear hearts my desire to God for you all is that you might come to see what unspeakable riches is laid up for you in Jesus Christ which is hid from all flesh neither can you see it while you live in the flesh and while you continue your love to the world and worldly things you keep out the manifestation of the Fathers love for your hearts canot receive both Now shew your selves wise men choose that which is eternal here is light and life tendred you in Jesus Christ
