body is as it were but for one houre but alas alas the second death which is the everlasting death and torment of the soule is to be lamented which al those ministers or any other false powers whatsoever they be shal be sure to receive that wil not be reconciled to God and to his Saints now I wil shew you how the Saints wil be knowne by their colours for they must be white and red which is to be discerned with the eye of mans understanding for the white colour is to shew mercy love and peace to al those that wil be reconciled to God and to his Saints But on the other side the colour that is red is to shew and signifie the fiery wrath of God to cut off and destroy al those people that wil not be reconciled to God and his Saints for Christ who is the perfect God saith plainly Luke 18.27 Those mine enemies that will not that I shall raigne over them bring them hither and slay them before me Hereby I plainly understand that God now will by the divine power of his word which shall be executed by his Saints cut off and roote out by degrees from the face of the whole world all those people that wil not be reconciled to Christ and to the obedience of his glorious Gospel Wherefore I Iames Hunt a Minister and Messenger of Iesus Christ do humbly beseech al the Saints and servants of Christ that you wil now with valour and courage hold forth your kingly and princely power which we shal freely receive from ●he glorious unity Father Son and Holy Ghost that by the divine power of the Word which is the powerful and two-edged sword we may all with boldnesse and courage hold forth the sword of justice both spiritual and temporal to cut down and root out al those people that shal wilfully fight against God and us if they do not repent and be reconciled for Christ is called a lamb for his meeknesse and humility again he is called a lion for his valour and courage to be revenged upon al his enemies that shal wilfully rise up against him for behold the Lion of the tribe of Iuda the root of David hath prevailed to open the book and to loose the seales thereof I understand the opening of the look doth signifie the opening and unfolding of the mysteries and parables in the new Testament to the true meaning and signification to the praise and glory of God and the confounding of false doctrine and false worship that belongeth to the divel for we know that the Son of God is come and hath given us an understanding to know him that is true and I praise GOD so am I in him that is true even in his Sonne JESVS CHRIST this is the true God and eternal life I in him and he in me by the divine power of his Word which liveth in me I honour and glorifie the name of God our glorious Father for ever and Christ Jesus our Mediator and Redeemer with the Holy Ghost who is our loving Comforter three glorious persons yet but one God for as they three cannot be divided one from the other no more can the true Church be divided from them three to whom be al praise honour glory power might dominion and Majesty now and evermore world without end Amen I acknowledge the Lords Prayer and other godly prayers that shal be agreable to the true worship and Honour of God and Davids Psalms shal abide in the Church of Christ for ever but for the old Law and Testament I plainely prove that is quite abolished by the suffering of Christ on the Crosse Againe the reading of the Common-Service booke doth bring in the old Iewish Religion againe which was under the Law for the reading of that book doth so blind the mindes of the people that they do not discerne betwixt the Law and commandements which is unto death and condemnation from the Law and Commandements which is to everlasting life and justification for the ministration of the old Testament is the Law of Commandements contained in Ordinances which Christ hath redeemed us from But on the other side Christ is the Law and Commandements in the second Covenant I meane the New Testament which is the book of life the fulnes of him that filleth all in all Again in the Common-Service-book there are very many false inventions which are contrary to the true worship and honour of God FINIS
