it and judge not that you know not and despise not that you enjoy not lest you should speak evil of the truth unawares but vvait the Lords time vvith patience and confidence until he that shall come vvill come and make truth appear truth to you and then you vvil not judge at all Heb. 10.35 36 37. the vvhich I doubt not but vvith you that knovv the Lord truth as truth will be received by you as from the Lord who himself vvith all his own Messages cometh vvith the Messengers to open the understandings of them vvhich he hath appointed receivers and the rest must tarry till he come vvho vvas not only the Author of it in me for you but vvill also be the Finisher of it to you at his coming wherefore receive you it the Lord and me together in one Spirit else you vvill not receive it as truth nor to your souls comfort but as Paul saith It will be unto them that do not believe but are reprobated as the savour of death unto death 2 Cor. 2 15 16. and to them vvhich do believe and are saved as the savour of life unto life for some in love to the Message of Christ vvill rejoice in it and others in hatred to it will be terrified by it however the Will of God be done in it And as I have sometime said unto you vvhen I was at first forced to leave you to go to prison for the truth and your sakes that when I was absent from you my spirit should be present with you so in the absence of now my person you may in this my Writing read my spirit vvhich is alvvayes vvith you in the Lord and as you have said you vvere comforted with my presence be ye also comforted still in my absence of which I doubt not but through the Lord you are comforted yea and in the absence of any man that may have been as a Messenger of the Lord to you let your comfort be in the Lord who onely is able to make you stand And the God of all comfort and patience fill you with all joy and peace in believing and the God of peace be with you 2 Cor. 1.3 and the peace of God which passeth all understanding keep you and rule in you and thereby make you able and willing to follow peace with all men Phil. 4 7. in which rest ye all together with me where I also rest with you and seeing first our peace with God in Jesus Christ our Lord we are therefore at peace with men and do forgive them as God in Christ hath forgiven us and is at peace with us And as I have not been forgotten by you that know my spirit in the Lord so I forget not you in him but ever remain the Lords faithful steward and your faithful friend servant in the brotherly Message of the truth of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus for the glory of God and comfort of all those that shal love his appearing And lastly My friends and brethren who all know of the proceedings against me you have also known how my life and Doctrine hath been among you and how by false accusations I have suffered for the truth and a good conscience but I rejoyce in it and still say The Lords Will be done and his Kingdom come even to my Enemies and reconcile them and those present differences with men that having peace in themselves they may live in love and peace one with another and no longer seek the destruction one of another In the mean time with the Prophets and Apostles of the Lord Jesus I shall rest and say as David and Christ did Psal 35.11 That though false Witnesses have rose up and laid to my charge things which I knew not yet they could not prevail against me to hurt me nor prevent the truth revealed in me but the things that have happend to me have prov'd rather to the further encrease of it with me wherefore better is it if the Will of God be that we suffer for well doing rather then for evil Phil. 1.12 13. and wrongfully rather then justlie ● Pet. 2.19 for this is thank-worthy saith Peter if a man for conscience towards God endure grief wrongfully as my conscience bears me witness in the Holy Ghost I do and have done to this day endured cheerfully that which I have been wrongfully accused for owning the Name of Jesus yet they cannot pull me out of his hand nor blot my Name out of the Book of his Remembrance but though men interested in the World that are lifted up with worldly pride and honor Luke 6.22 ●● may hate me and blot my name out of their Books and cast it out as evil for the Son of Mans sake yet the Lord who saith I am blessed therein owns me and doth still love me and never will nor can forsake me because in Christ the Book of Life I am alwayes in remembrance before him in whom my new Name is written and no man can take it from me ●sa 19.14 15. for can a Woman forget her sucking-child saith the Lord that she should not have compassion on the son of her Womb yea she may forget but I will never forget thee saith the Lord Such is my faith and confidence in the Lord who having loved his own will love them to the end and is tender of them as the Apple of his eye And that as he hath freed my soul from the snares of death sin and devils so he will in his time free my body from the snares of men that with hatred to the life of God in me lye in wait daylie to devour me and that when my liberty hath been several times like to come have suggested false things against me to prevent it and hinder the truth from appearing as the Princes Dan. 6. J●r 38 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 37.7 8 9 10. 39. 11 12. Gen. 41.14 Dan 6.23 Priests and false Prophets of old did against the true Prophets to keep them in prison but the Lord hath his time for me as he had for them to free me and I shall with patience wait for it who works and none can let and who made Zedekiah free Jer●miah from the Dungeon of the Prison upon the request of Ebedmeleck one of the Kings House and who also made Pharoah King of Aegypt free Joseph from Prison upon the motion of Pharoahs chief Butler and did also make King Darius to command Daniel from the lyons Den without an hurt to him who no doubt in his due time will by what means he pleaseth free me and none shall hinder till when I shall rest in him with my prayers in the spirit for you all that God vvill keep you and me and also for my enemies that he vvill not lay to their charge the things they have acted against me vvhich he hath hitherto made me able to bear to rest

their coming to their kingdom and with which beast or beastial power acting in men to take the kingdom from the saints the kings rulers of the earth as enemies to Christ and his kingdom Rev. 14.9 10 do receive power and authority with and from the beast to act one hour with the beast and by him they do reign over the people of all Nations Rev. 17.11 12 13 14. and with him they shall suffer and go into perdition together and they give their power and authority to the beast and prince of darkness that ru●e● in the children of disobedience yeelding themselves his servants and sons as the god and father which they worship and fall down before Rom. 6.16 For his servants ye are to whom ye obey whether of sin unto death or of obedience unto life and yeelding to the Beast they with him who with Gog and Magog do joyn in battle together to make war against the Saints of the Most High until Christ the Lamb of God and Prince of Light by his innocent life and light in the Saints shall overcome the Beast or beastial power by the bright fiery appearing of his presence amongst them in the Saints and shall give the victory to the Saints Rev. 15.2 3. and until Christ and the ancient of days shall sit in judgement upon the white throne of innocency Rev. 20.11 12 Deut. 7.9 10 11 19 20 21 22. light and life in God from whose face the heaven and the earth and all things therein of mans inventions shal flye away and before whom all books shal then be opened and every mans conscience shal bear witness either for or against himselfe and their thought the mean while accusing or else excusing one another Rom. 2.16 17. for then do God appear to judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to his Gospel and then doth he give the Kingdom to the Saints of the Most High to possess it even to them that know themselves in him and he in them and then will the beast devil and sin even Gog and Magog warred against the Saints in the time of their deliverance from sin and resurrection from death by Christ as the Aegyptians did against Israel in Israels coming out of Aegypt be quickly slain and devoured with fire from Heaven as the Aegyptians were by water drowned in the red-sea and that body of sin and death the old man which is the body of the beast in which he appears to live and act shall be destroyed and given to the burning fire in the lake which quencheth not where the devil death hell Rev. 20.8 9 10 14. and the false Prophet is to be damned to a perpetual end for ever and ever which is the second death and these men with whom the beast and prince of darkness have so acted and ruled Rev. 12.12 shall themselves go in his destruction who will then be in great wrath in them because he knows his time is short with them be shut out from the injoyment of love and peace in God and have punnishment greater then they bear but the Heavens shall laugh and they that dwell in them shall rejoyce and be at peace and rest in the Lord. CHAP. V. A definition of the righteous and the wicked as two parts of three in man to be destroyed and how the third part neither righteous nor wicked is brought through the fire and saved with a distinction of Dives and Lazaras ●nd their conditions in life and death and of the dog licking Lazaras ●a●es ANd into this consumnig fire where Gog and Magog is destroyed for persecuting the Saints thither went Adam after he eat the forbidden fruit Gen. 4.13 and Cain after he had slew his brother Abel where Cain said my punishment is greater then I can bear and where rich Dives whose kingdom is of this world and that to this day despises Lazarus Iames 3.15 is tormented in the flame of a burning conscience being that dark black devilish part which is earthy sensual and devilish opposing hating and loathing that part which is light bright and Heavenly Gen. 18.23 Iob 9.22 Isa 64.6 and who is both the righteous and the wicked with men that must be destroyed for both the righteousness and wickedness of men is all as filthiness and so shall perish together for as they are one in pollution so they shall be one in destruction so was Dives with all his glory he and that destroyed together But to more explain this Dives is the pharisaical principle of righteousness under a law dispensation where sin is manifest representing of men in the state of unbelief and which so far as any man liveth in it he is as Dives was righteous and wicked for in opposition to his own wickedness he forms to himselfe a righteousness in which he is proud and lusty rich and mighty boasting himselfe in himselfe against the poor publican as Dives did against Lazarus yet this publican shall enter into Heaven before the proud Pharisee Matt. 21.31 so shall Lazarus without Dives even as humillity without pride and then Lazarus is the gospel principle of righteousness under a gospel dispensation representing all men in the state of believing which so far as any man liveth in it he is as Lazarus was poor and humble meek and lowly even as a poor despised publican having no righteousness of his own but is cloathed with poor beggerly rayment to the worlds view that wear it not and waiting to be cloathed with change of rayment from Heaven and justified only in the righteousness of Christ Againe this Dives the righteous and the wicked in a mistery is two parts of three in the whole creation with man that cannot stand in the presence of Gods consum●ng fire to be tryed and saved but is for destruction to be damned and cast into hell to be burned for two parts therein shall be cut off and dye but the third part shall remaine and be brought through the fire as refined silver and as tryed gold Zach. 13.9 this third part is poor Lazarus tryed and punished for salvation having all his own works good and bad burned but himselfe saved for none of the third part can be lost being of God having past the tryal through the fire and overcome the righteous and the wicked that warred against it and could not escape the fire for they that are both righteous and wicked seeing righteousness and sin of their own do persecute the innocent that sees and know nothing of their own which the righteous and the wicked even Gog and Magog incampeth about to destroy and thereby destroyeth it selfe yet is the inocent sanctified nature of men that is neither righteous nor wicked exalted with Christ into the throne of God into Abrahams bosom where no evil of sin nor sorrow can come neer it to hurt it and where there is no curse but the eternal blessedness of God And so
