whatever is done by you may be done in the name of the Lord Iesus that you may be birds of Paradise and not of the fire that you may have no nest hole or place to rest in but the eternal fould of life where no devouring beast nor bird of prey can enter that you may all shine in his life that poor Lazarus may know that he is carried into the bosome of the Father for if he goeth unto the rich man which feeds on the tree of knowledge which is much desireable to the eye which goeth forth from the tree of life there he must lie full of sores for the healing is in Christ the life the knowledge in the sight without the enjoyment of the life healeth not mark that Therefore I say again look up unto Christ the life onely for he ariseth with healing in his wings therefore let no object draw forth your mindes from the Lord then his perfect peace you may enjoy to that which you are called in the which peace the Lord God of peace establish you Amen So be it saith my Soule Then shall the mans part be abased and the glory of the Lord over all be exalted which shall astonish the Horse and the Rider and wholly subject the power of darkness and thus shall deliverance come by the Lord alone therefore I say again eye the Lord and stand still in the Faith and make not haste neither be you high minded but fear and the Lord will preserve you to the end Given forth in the pure love and fear of God in the County Goale of Northampton being twelve steps under ground the 17 day of the eight Moneth 1663. Where I with sixteen more suffer for the testimony of Iesus But the Lord doth and will plead the cause of the Innocent in the hearts of his and our Enemics Your dear Friend and Brother in the unchangeable love of God IOHN SAMM Friends who are here in this Prison are well and the Lords presence appeares amongst us who is as a fountain never drawn drie who causeth his living cup to overflow to the praise of his glorious Name which is the Ark of our safety THe name of the Lord God is a strong tower and as an oyntment powred forth I have witnessed it so that in all my tryals temptations in his name hath been plentious redemption for it hath preserved and delivered me six times out of the common Goales wherein I was cast for the testimony thereof that I never yet paid penny Fees to any Goaler or any other man upon that account nor durst I ever entertain a thought in my heart to think any imprisonments long although I have been strictly detayned for a long time together neither did I ever entertain any fear into my heart what might be done to my body or outward estate or my dear children who are as dear as my life but when my goods hath been spoiled as taking away three good Horses and three of the best milch kine I had for lesse then one years claim of that which the hireling Priest called his due because I could not for conscience sake put into his mouth which if I could have done I do believe I might have been excused for forty shillings which would have prevented the damage of neer forty pounds but I giving up in obedience to the Lord suffered the losse thereof with joy so I know the Lord hath not been a hard Master Oh! what God ever preserved or delivered in like manner but the mighty God of Abraham Isaack and Iacob who delivered Daniel out of the Den from the mouthes of the Lions Mordecay from the gallowes and the three Children out of the fiery furnac● c. Who is my God the Rock of his chosen who are faithful and true who loves not their lives unto death Oh! dear child●en hold fast your confidence with me for I do believe t●●t the same God which hath preserved and delivered me six times will preserve and deliver me this seventh also and so to the end Therefore as good Soldiers of Iesus Christ let us all be valiant for truth upon Earth Oh! let us all buy the truth but sell it not although we part with our all that Iesus Christ may be all in all Oh! be faithful unto the death then shall you be Crowned with life what is written is in the innocency of my Soul as it arose in my heart for to strengthen the weak innocent ones which may feel me that I speak from the experience which I had have of the great love of God who is no respecter of persons so I have nothing to boast off for what I have or had at any time it was and is the free gift of God to me for the kingdome power glory victory triumph and pure refreshing is the Lords therefore let none rejoyce only because the Devils are or have been subject unto them or that they have done or suffered much for the truth of God but rather that they feel Gods presence with them and that they read their names written in the book of life for truly friends if any look at the deed done as to rest or glory in that that mind is not like to Christs therefore dear children in all your fiery tryals look up unto the Lord that you may as the three children did know one in and amongst you who beares the form of the Son of God then shall you be safely preserved through the fire but the woe will take hold of all that are with Child or give suck to any other birth in themselves or others which beares not the Image and forme of the Son of God and also to them that flee in the winter time of Gods judgements before judgement is brought forth unto victory and also those who take their flight on the sabbath day which is the light and power of the Lord wherein all are to rest whereby all the people of the Lord are preserved unto Salvation but they that depart from the light and power where the Tree of Life is known to be food for the Soul to feed upon any other food will be found to be in the foolish Virgins State therefore what I say unto one I say unto all Watch yea watch and pray lest you enter into temptation for the Spirit is willing which will help your infirmities and supply your wants but the flesh is weak and there is no temptation but is common to man therefore all to the name the Arke for as it was in the dayes of Noah even so shall it be in this day of the comming of the Son of Man whose appearance is and will be in overflowing flames of fire as the Lords appearance was in Noahs day with overflowing floods of water who shall abide his coming who shall dwell with devouring fire and with everlasting burnings none but the innocent birth whose Kingdom and delight is not of this World nor in the honour glory or riches thereof but delighteth in the Law of God day and night his dwelling shall be on high his bread shall be sure his water shall never fail for his defence shall be the munition of the eternal Rock of ages which is the power of God the stone cut out of the Mountain without hands which shall strike at the feet of all carved images imaginations and pleasant pictures although they may appeare Goldlike yet down must they all fall and that shall remain onely which the fire cannot consume therefore blessed and happy shall they be that takes the Babilonish Childe when it is young and dasheth it against that Heavenly stone that the Cockatrice may be crushed in the egge that the Serpent may not be brought forth to beguile you as he beguiled Eve but in the Heavenly power and Tower all dwell which is the place wherein the Lord will perfect his own work by the instrument which is his own power so mans tool or hammer is not to be used or heard in the Temple of God for it is his powerfull word which made all things in the beginning which creates anew and fastens us unto himself as a nail in a sure place Oh! feel it so that you may go no more forth then shall you be as pillars in the house of God even so be it saith my Soul Read and weigh these lines in the pure fear and dread of the Lord God that nothing may be taken amisse although they be but as the Widdowes mite and the overflowing of my Cup but as the drop of a bucket in comparison of the 〈…〉 tionable fulness which is in the infinite Lord God J.
