the Light and dwell in the Light with thy mind and heart stablished and fixed in it which shews thy own transgression within to have feeling of the Judgment of GOD upon the transgressor in thee And come to the love of the Light and follow the Light by it to be led out of sin and transgression and then with the Light by which all things are made manifest in all matters of Judgment thou wilt reach that of GOD in all which in all will justifie thee in the sight of GOD and so thou wilt stand girded with Justice in the seat of Equity and Truth a terror to evil-doers and a praise to them that do well GOD is coming to search the whole Earth who looketh for the fruit of Judgement from all that sit in the seat thereof Mercy to the Poor Relief of the Oppressed The Poor hath cryed and the Oppressed hath groaned and GOD hath heard it and he who heareth will answer Answer thou alwayes in thy place for the LORD lest the LORD GOD make thee to answer for thy self before Him Though I am but as a suckling of the Lords Flock nevertheless in the simplicity and tenderness of my life as one that hath received Mercy at the Judgment seat of God according to the lowliness of my measure I counsel thee in his pure fear That thou dost look over the Books of the Registers of the Law of thy Nation and see if any one Statute be there written which may stand as a Law to condemn the Just David complained of that in his day for he saw the issue of what came to passe though it was afar off from his dayes We have a Law said the Jews and by our Law he ought to dye by which they in their wilfulness put the LORD CHRIST to death And so it was in all Ages that transgressors for whom saith Paul the Law was made did make such to suffer under the Law and put them to death by a Law in whose mouth guile was not found which was the unrighteous Judgment Friend Draw thou thy hand from that And though the people do cry even as it was complained of in Judah concerning the Prophet The Land is not able to bear all his words yet of a truth the Word of the LORD will come to passe and be fulfilled And truly I say unto thee as Jeremy said unto the Elders of Israel with the life of that Prophet Do with me as seemeth good in thy sight but assuredly know I am of God And I also desire that the LORD GOD in Mercy may not lay this thing to your charge in the day of his Judgments forasmuch as you do you know not what I sit not in the seat of the unrighteous in any measure apt to judge any thing before the true time wherefore unless the fruit in this matter did shew the Tree I shall not at the present accuse the Romans with our detainment under their Yoak of Captivity to provoke words from us whereby the Prophet's words might become fulfilled upon your heads in this your Age in making a man an offender for a word but I am rather in expectation of the Appearance of the Nobility of that which hath been reported and written concerning the Romans If we have transgressed the Law of GOD Try us by the Law and give us our punishment according to the Law For the LORD GOD knows I delight in Righteous Judgment If we are not found transgressors why are we innocent strangers and pilgrims stopped of our Voyage if our Bonds hold us by you onely upon the account of suspition we blame you not but prove us and satisfie your selves concerning us only if we have found the favour of Justice before you which the living God requires of you shew us the Cause in truth why we are detained that according to Law and Equity before your seat 〈◊〉 Judgment we may make our open Defence I am a Friend of thy soul J.
