O the greatness of things cannot demonstrate the heavenly light but that light doth demonstrate it self as it self pleases that is the english of the fore-cited state or citation in the tongues Now Beloved I have shown you one glimps of Gods goodness and Gods greatness in his distributive destributive in distillation into and upon the creation in appearances by his illustrious influences in strength conveyed from himself through the celestial Attire that is the high moving motions in the sphere celestial and so is conveyed by the Sun through the Moon into every receptacle appearance in the terrestrial world or forme or chaos I prove it so for what is not union is a chaos I speak it as relative to man but it is union unto God his varieties in themselves is his delightful union in himself Now beloved I come to shew you how man is essencied in God and then how he is like God in the earthly figure and if he be renewed to his figure that is the life of Christ risen up in man in predominacie where man is wholly subjected to the will of God that is man to be wholly passive and the spirit of God to be the sole and whole rule in the spirit of man then the figure is as true in the derivative essence as it is in the raigning all Now beloved I come to shew you man that is man drawn up by the Spirit of God into union with God as saith one Text Whereby we have an union with the Father through one spirit that Text varieth little from the Original in its import for it is thus whereby our union is made one through Christ. O how I could joy if there were no more dismeeter in the whole conclave of the old and new Testament then had I not had this trouble that my manhood lies under the zeal I have against the aspersion that by weak and vain man is laid upon God onely by the ignorance in man and his false conception that man hath upon the sacred Majesty of God that is in not ful understanding the denotation that God hath letten down to put motional man to a stand or stof But now I come to denote how man is said to be like God that is the earthly patern of the Divine thing in sanctum sanctorum now man being made obedience he acts in love from that Root obedience which word in the Hebraick terme is Rokas in the Greek tongue it is Kias in the Latine word it is Cristus but you would have it Cartas but the word is neither Cristus nor Caritas but the true nominative case is Cristos in the true Latine the import is binding that is the full import of the word Rokas which is the essence from whence all these are derived from for the Hebrew is Pimus maxzi that is the first great strength that is the significant of Rokas Now know that obedience is the all required of man and obedience is the all gift from man to God that is the Rokas or binding strength of man to God by Gods own gift that is thus much in import In one Text I saith God will give them an obedient heart and they shall fear me Now this obedience is Gods free gift into man that is to say in truth of words it is Christ in the soul now in man is this obedience set which is Christ or the Spirit or the holy Ghost or the new Birth or the Angel of God in man Now know that at the descent of the Spirit into the Soule of man it causes in the Soul an erection of the heavenly figure then doth the Pattern temporal act in true truth in the Pattern as it is in the Seater Though it be but a derivative yet it is in sanctification holding coherent with the Essence it was derived from Now I may truely speak if truely understood it is thus much God in man and man in God that is by the derivative Essence essencied in Flesh and yet not flesh but the subjecter of flesh to it self and so both unto God so the marriage is compleated in the union of one Spirit being thus God in himself and in man by his Spirit this is the true pattern of the divine and sacred Trinity operative in the earthly form which is the figurative pattern of the trine celestial yet all in one which in property of is speech Jehovah or Al for Al if duly considered in this new dispensation but it is but the old truth reduced to his Originalest center in the true declarative which by reason of mans false conception of God and his declarative so that the truth in the litteral expression is buried and one of Gods declaratives mixed with mans invention by mans conceiving it to be so and he not knowing the true import of the various maxzims in their combinements in themselves and with others in their addititional coherencies and adjuncts Now in this Sate if truely understood the learned Rabbies may perceive that by my pointing at these Maxzims being I am unlearned in what I declare it might be a satisfactory satisfaction for them either to affirm against me or else to acknowledge it to be true what I say least I do conclude that their silence doth give consent through their ignorance in the citation I declare Now I have drawn up man and stated him in his called center or earthly form to what can be required or can be attained to in which man may in property of speech be said to be like God by the Spirit of God predominating in man to mans subjectancie in the whole to the Spirit thus that man beareth this Motto from God his owne writing be thou like me in my humane creation this is the new creation that God makes or the called new birth in every one that is brought forth unto God Now I come to the declaratives that this new birth if truely born and brought forth unto God OF you think would have been the true word as to have said to be born of God that very OF makes all the state false for in a true state there must not be a false letter so in a true sentence there must not be a false word and know that in the Translation in the Major OF is read in the divine and sacred expressing or writing Now minde I will not neither can I give it the name Scripture if it were but for that one word OF and that word but named once in the whole book for minde we have and do read OF an Affirmative and it is in our language or speech a Negative Now I come not to dwel in the name or shadow

it of these Elementary Heavens that Paul spake of the third Heaven Or what was his meaning for the word is Translated into the singular number that is to say one heaven and one earth Now to know his and the Spirits meaning in them words I affirm he wrote that he did not understand in many places for thus it is many times the mystery is a sealed Book to the Pen-man of it The meaning of his insert was not as it is Translated for the word Sabas is read Saba and is derived from ש Shin which imports weakness Now the true meaning was and is that the first Heavens was passed away and the Earth also which is thus much if truely viewed in that alone light it was wrote It was the Jewes ceremonies Typifying the height of the Transcendent pattern celestial their Abrogating and non Residence amongst men on Earth And the Earth was that beauty and delight that man had in these Earthly celebrations of joy and rejoycing Now I state the last first and the first last Now the new heaven and the new earth was the Gospel of Jesus in power turning all things into it self that was the power that John saw should accompany the declared Truth But it is not yet made good neither could it be until time time time and an half time which is Christ his second comming to reduce both Jewes and Gentiles and their two dispensations into one radical root which is unto the Jewes Hassa Massah I leave the knowledge locked in them two words hid both from the Jewes and Gentiles till time can bear it on both sides into one radical root or Church of the first born Now for the word Sea signifies a severation or partition from one another or in some places the word Sea it is understood properly of People Now if the People be all reduced into one fold then there is no more Sea that is difference or severation this is the Spirits meaning of the new Heaven and the new Earth wherein shall dwell righteousness for they shall be reduced into one root and they shall all be taught of God that is love and they taught of God shall act in love for ever And I saw the holy City new Jerusalem come down from God out of heaven prepared as a Bride trimmed for her husband what was the meaning of this expression it was the beauty of excellency that the Spirit was beautified withall that was so beautious that it did attract to its loveliness all the beholders for the Spirit operative is let down from God to man and returnes from man to God with its effects or message and marriage taking man into union with God this is that new Jerusalem that is ever and alwaies the same in operation For God is Is is always no less nor greater but the same holy for ever O beloved were we but capable of the great change at hand O how ought we to walk in love one to another not in envy and deceit Now one word to you Churches Congregated so called do not you speak evil of the things you understand not for know the word doth hold forth the second appearing of Christ in a more visible glory then ever yet was revealed which is the bringing in the Jewes and the preaching the everlasting Gospel which must raise out of the Grave of oblivion the buried truth and abstract that and the letting downe of the Spirit these two yet one in the senter must be inserted together that all Nations may flow to the City Jerusalem for they shall say of a surety God is with his people we will go up to worship in Jerusalem the Mount of God even in Hereb O avallo hesseon andi dele selose in re averietar sebat The English O the rich mercy of God shall be letten down for the restoring of his ancient people the Jewes to cause their return to their owne land Selah selalah Selah that is Englished Praise praise praise yee the Lord these words do bear other imports as well as praise the Lord.

To the Reader Friends and Enemies BEloved whereas in my first Book Theous ori I did promise unto the world speedily the second part being then wrote for both the first and second were wrote in one scene of light but by reason of my false imprisonment for writing the Copy and the tossing from one Prison to another two of the Copies I could not finde until now lately wdich were in a friends hand these things with other necessities which were laid upon me was the cause that I could not discharge my promise Now thus much I do protest before God and his holy Angels I was forced to write I neither understood nor knew what I wrote and when it was wrote I could not rest till it were delivered unto the people Now what I thus wrote Captain Robert Norwood did read and by his wisdome dispute but I would not have you for to conclude a oneness in us two for what the Captain hath done or doth that is upon his account and what I have done and what I do that is upon mine account for when I was a child I held by any thing but now childishness is departed and counsel is established on her Throne as a short time will manifest Now let the wise and prudent weigh in their secret and juditious judgements and I leave it to the whole to consider what they could cast me in prison for it will appear mad Rage in them if they have condemned me for the things they understood not but blessed be the Lord who now hath given me understanding in the book and without the book that I in my Masters name Jehovah do challenge the whole Clergie in the world to dispute in any created appearance or any

but to look into the center I mind not what is said but the true truth is in truth the thing is and now blessed be the Lord my God he doth increase my understanding Now mind I come to shew not what is written but what in your hearts you hold a zeal for the same I ever did since God gave me light and it is this the Scriptures and the Gospel for the defence of them through the strength of my God I would lay down my life for them Now I will show you that in terme that I may say that I and you at this day are so zealous for that is the Scriptures so called now the God that you ignorantly worship him show I unto you and I beseech you take special notice even you that are but notional and you likewise My brethren that are zealous but not according to knowledge as through Gods goodness I shall make appear Non est nome sanktus in re sabat akzi a malet oli in rem medad alphi sele arbat al. The English from this Hebrew state and yet both Latine Greek and Arraback and Caldee all these tongues to make a true harmonious assent in consent But lest you learned Rabbies should contend with me that am unlearned onely English I have and that no man worse but I will give you one hint of knowledge and learning denoted unto me by the Spirit and what spirit let the declaratives of it self speak and the obedience and actions of my life speak forme and so all judge Look you be clean within and then you judge righteous judgement But now Scholars know that the major includes the minor so the major in that state is Hebrew wrote in Kof ק that is the second strength in writing Now let me tell you Schollars I will but state three Hebrew words and I will make their majority carry the state of five lines of Latine stated but they will not carry so much in no tongue for know the nearer you come to the center which is the Hebrew the more you disearet the weak connexions dependancies For know that the Arraback and Caldee and Syrriack and the Muscovite in their original center are as it were in the edge or verdge of the Hebrew Now you will say that the majority of them languages is Hebrew it is granted but write you in any one of them languages it is not Hebrew So though the Hebrew her Regencie be over the languages yet her predominacy may be eclipsed by another tongue when she is but an adjunct in the state or sitation for know that in all tongues and languages there is an union consent and assent in a composed composure in their coherents and the truth flowes from the head to the foot and ascends from the foot to the head as the rivers from the sea to the sea their centred center But this knowledge in truth of knowledge by man is not to be understood and none but the Spirit of God whose conveyances is in and through all tongues into one language that is the scriptum est Now brethren your long patience is your expectation of what is Scripture I beseech you mind I cannot come when I would to open the state or citation out of the tongues though my desire is as great as yours can be ye though I am weary I cannot leave writing the mysterie that lies in the Hebrew state last cited when I thought to have open'd it when I named the english I could never come at it till now non est nome sanklus in re Now I beseech you mind the english of the forecited state The name is not the holy thing now I read negatively The holy thing denyes any name in truth of thing but is and is in truth hath no name Now mind since the world was there was not a greater denotation by the spirit of the truth in God than this Now there is another citation in the same Hebrew state which is this The true Scripture 't is the divine life of God in the soul and it is written by and with Digitus Dei the spirit finger or finger spirit by God O that destroying of it wounds and destroyes sense for according to our Translation digitus Dei the finger of God that word of undoes the state Now I shall show you how your zeal is evacuated and how you come misled concerning that you call the Bible and new Testament calling them the Scriptures or the word of God the Word was made flesh and in that flesh there is a Table and a Book that even that God doth write upon that is Holmess to himself But to come to speak to you brethren even ye blind persecuting Zealots truly I love you all and pity all for ye cannot do right till light be come Brethren I demand of you from whence zeal proceeds if it be true zeal in light it proceeds from that scriptum est that is from that inward and inmost Vail unvailed though you know it not Now know but this that nothing without can give life to your zeal within but it lives in it self and from that small appearance within to the notional man he as he is sees outwardly and he catches at the glimmerings within and through that false conception he states all without upon mans writing or the Signam manum or sign of a mans hand of mans spellings so man not drawn into obedience to the spirit of God within he builds upon outward words and names in books without Now I beseech you mind did any of you receive remission of sins by mans preaching you and I my self did think so thus such a man is a man of God and he is able to turn any man now how was that because Gods power within thee did begin to unfetter thee for it was Gods spirit did begin inwardly to illustrate and thy resurrection and walking was from that light within and thou accounted that it was done by man or hearing or reading here thou wast a greater Idolater then before now here thou sacrificest to man and in this act thou makest and accountest him thy God converter or the Bible or Testament were thy Idols when indeed and in truth it was onely the alone descent of Gods mercy conveyed by his spiritual light arising in thy soul that caused thy awaking from the corruptible estate of death and darkness Now mind I desire to know of you my brethren whether the knowledge doth lye outwardly in objects declared or in the inmost or inward understanding in the spiritus that is in the spirit in that word θ in that import it is a Greek word and it doth denote God his Spirit that is θ spirit and you read it the spirit not understanding the import of the word Now if that be granted that cannot be denyed if duly considered that the understanding lives and lies within the inmost spirit why doth not man act alwaies right and in truth of zeal I answer
