64. Those who hitherto have prayed to God and have confessed the peoples Sinnes they have kept back the deserved punishment but you make haste with them out of the Countrey 65. And seeing you call me Prophet but with an evill acceptation for scorn and disgrace therefore I shall tell you what the Lord hath given Me to know viz that the Time is born or come wherein God will require an account of your strife about the Cup of Christ and punish you for it that which you now fear and yet do not Repent THAT will come upon you 66. And thea you shall give an account to God of your reproaching for it will be required of you how you have walked before the Lambs committed to your trust with Good Life and sound Doctrine there you will find a heap of Scorners in that you have made all Erroneuos and Blasphemous and have cast your poyson and reproaching upon them and bespattered them therewith where will you become when Their bloud will be required at your Hands 67. Look but upon your Fruit the whole City reproacheth in respect of your powerings out upon a Lamb of Christ and think in their simplicity they do right in it because you bid them do it where will you abide when this Lamb will at the Last Judgement Day stand before your eyes and your Auditors or Hearers whom you have made Blasphemers shall say behold is not this He whom we once accounted a Fool and made sport in derision of him and accounted his Life a shame how is he now numbred among the Children of Christ and his inheritance among the Saints Owe Fools and unwise have missed the right way Then will all Curse you that you have lead them to such blasphemy and Reproach Wisd 5. O Primate be you warned and admonished by the Life of Our Lord JESUS CHRIST it is time to abstain or else you will then see what hath been here told you 68. You call in your Libell Zu dem Rechten Richter to the Righteous Judge that he should awake and defend the Majesty of God Now if the Judgement should come vpon you seeing you do persecute Christ in his Members it is you your self that have called for the Sword 69. Look I pray upon you own Heart you paint a Mist or Smoak before the Eyes of the Church or Congregation that they should beleeve you that your Libell is right and true why then do you not take the Certainty out of the Printed Book It is likely you have none of them or it doth not relish with you For earnest Sincere Repentance puts the Flesh away assuredly it relisheth not with you but the People that read my little Book and compare it with your Libell they will distinguish us and judge aright 70. Have a Care that the Dirt and Burres which you cast upon me do not remain sticking upon you I will no more remain silent as I have done abstinence were good Peace is a good Country The Second Part in the Libell The Libell saith 71. THe Libell saith The Shoemaker is the Antichrist Answer 72. If I should describe Antichrist I could not demonstrate him Otherwise then that he calleth himself a Christian and covereth himself with Christs Purple-Mantle acknowledgeth and teacheth Christ with the Mouth but his Heart is altogether set against Christ he teacheth one thing and doth another outwardly he calleth himself a Christian and inwardly he is a Serpent he persecuteth Christ in his Members and resisteth the Spirit of Christ he flattereth and playeth the Hypocrite and will be honoured in Christs Name but is inwardly a devouring Wolfe as Christ calleth the Pharisees who sat upon Moses Seat and Managed the Law Matth 7. 15. But Christ said they were from beneath from the Father of this world viz from the Devill John 8. 23 24. 73. Herewith I would not touch or disturb the good Conscience of any but would try the Libeller whether a young Antichrist doth not peep out of the Shell Libell 74. Thou Meek and Gentle Lord CHRIST sayest My word is True and faithfull and thou perjured Shoemaker sayst also My words are true which of them both now shall credit and Faith be given to To THEE thou True and Faithfull Christ or to thee Shoemaker and thy Dung Answer 75. CHRIST is the Word of the Father the way to God the Truth and the Life and whosoever putteth on Christ from his body shall flow streams of Living Water as Christ said John 14. 6. 7. 38. Christ said Whosoever eateth my Flesh and drinketh my Bloud he continueth in Me and I in him John 6. 54. And Saint Paul saith You are the Temple of the Holy Spirit which dwelleth in you 2. Cor 6. 16. Also The Word is neer thee viz in thy Mouth and thy Heart Rom 10. 8. Deut 30. 14. 76. To this Living Word which is become Man I have wholly given up my self to be its own And he my Lord Christ hath given me his Flesh and Bloud in My Faiths Desire and so incorporated tied and united himself with me according to the inward ground of my Soul and Spirit that I am ascertained and stedfastly beleeve that I am in his hand and none can pluck me on thence also none can separate me from the Love of Christ neither Height nor Depth nor Principality nor Power or Authority nor any Creature shall separate me from the Love of Christ 77. He My Saviour hath given to me to be spiritually minded as Saint Paul saith Those whom the Spirit of God driveth they are Gods Children for we have not received a slavish or servile spirit that we should fear again but we have received A Child-like Spirit whereby we cry Abba Dear Father that witnesseth to our Spirits that we are Gods Children if we be Children then we are also Heirs viz Heirs of God and Co-heirs with Christ if we suffer with him that we may also be glorified with him Rom 8. 14 15 16 17. 78. Therefore say I I have my knowledge Not from Man or through Man but from the Gift of my Saviour Jesus Christ and desire to seduce none from Christ but I shew them sincerely and heartily how they should through true Repentance and Prayer come to Christ my Saviour as my printed little Book teacheth throughout nothing else 79. Why then do you separate me away from Christ and call my words which direct to Christ Dung It is a sign and the way of Repentance which leadeth to Christ stinketh like filth this is the true Colour or Antichrist for the Libeller spits Fy and filth against the Repentance and the very earnest Prayers in my-little Book and calleth it a stink 80. This I offer to the impartiall Reader to consider of whether this Libell of the Primate be not dictated from the Antichristian Spirit seeing he will presse that upon me I offer it that it might be considered and known from
and presents as he supposeth 167. I believe verily that some Old Ruffians have brought him those tydings as Newes concerning Me And the Good Lord hath beleeved it as Gospel and with great earnestnesse written it and so enraged himself at it that he hath thereupon condemned the poor Shoemaker unheard but it would look strangely if Men should ask after the Ground of it and compare this Answer with the Libell 168. It is truly a great Matter for such a Man as you are so to deal with the Truth The City Goerlitz know very well that I for a long time without necessity have come into No Mans House The Tap-houses and Wine-Cellers are at quiet for all me for you have so judged and condemned me that I would willingly come no whither now if I should go to drink in Tap-houses how many hundred of your Flouts should I not get which you have cast among common-Common-people which are all your Fruits which will follow you you may well rejoyce at them Libell 169. Now if by this thou knowest the Shoemaker as the Lyon by his Paw Wilt thou then read his Books No but Shun them as the filthy Spawn of a Devill and abominable Errour and hold thee close to the Word of God and beware of the Shoemakers Scholars or Disciples whether they be Noble-men or Doctors Taylours Men or Women The LORD CHRIST destroy Satans Instrument and let not THY Word be suppressed or obscured Answer 170. In these words it may well be observed wherefore the Libell hath been written viz that he might bring to nothing and quite root out my writings by these defamatory Reproaches It vexes the Devill that my writings do lay open his Smoak-Hole and therefore it is that he paints me with such colours that NONE should READ me Men might otherwise Repent and so there would be a greater Breach made to his Kingdome 171. But this Devill is so very Grossely vile that he goeth quite Naked the People may easily observe him and learn to know him for men see his Pawes in his disposition and reproachings and that he is altogether a Poysonous venemous or Spitefull Spirit It is now quite an other Time then it hath been Men will not now so suddenly beleeve what every one saith Men will see proof for it why doth he not demonstrate what he sayes out of the printed Book seeing he forbids it to the Congregation of the People such defamatory reproaches are no demonstrations men may well call them Filth and Dung 178. He speaketh of the Lyons Paw by which Men should know the Shoemaker Now it may well be true that men at present may easily see the Lyons Paw in Me how the Lyon with contemning and reproaching hath griped and clawed Me but the Bloud of JESUS CHRIST hath hitherto resisted the Lyon else he had torn the Shoemaker in peeces 173. But that he saith the Shoemakers Doctrine is Filth and Dung therein he calls CHRISTS Mind or Thoughts and Spirit Filth and Dung And that Men should beware of the Shoemakers Scholars or Disciples to that I say I know of No Scholars or Disciples but only of Christian Men where one SOUL is refreshed by an other I have no New Doctrine but only the Old which is to be found in the BIBLE and in the Kingdome of NATURE 174. But that he calls his reproaching Blasphemies GODS WORD which men should hear only from HIM and should so reproach as he doth that I offer to Christian Hearts to consider of what Spirits Childe he is The Third Part in the Libell A Spending Penny on the Way Libell 175. THe City of Goerlitz still driveth thee Shoemaker away and commandeth thee to be gone thither where thy writings are highly Esteemed away quickly and get thee A great way off thou vain Mouth which reproachest and blasphemest GOD and try thou Miserable Man what Mischief is prepared for thee Answer 176. O Primate keep this Spending Penny for your selfe against you go to Heaven I desire nothing from you your vain reproaching Blasphemies will indeed follow after you for a Spending Penny Be not deceived he that standeth let him take heed least he fall Though indeed you persecute Me and intend to Bannish me who knoweth who it is will persecute you so also in a short time 177. The Signatures or signs of it are at hand it is equall that you before hand do to others as afterwards you would it should be done to you for a Punishment but you must fill up your Measure and if you do not Repent then will the Evill Spirits one day sing you a very grievous Song and command you to go away a farre off from the Countenance of God For what you do now at present that you do to CHRIST in his Members and that will He also do to you if you do not quickly convert and Repent Libell 178 Thou art just like Oedipus whom the Earth swallowed up O take heed that the like doth not befall thee also his Shadow did much hurt the People who stood neer him but beleeve me thy Shadow hurteth many of them exceeding much Answer 179. The Shaddow of S t. Peter did the Devill also very much hurt so doth my Shaddow also do hurt only to the Devil so Antichrist its likely you suppose that my shadow might hurt you as to your earthly Life because I make known the imitation or following of Christ and so the people who receive that Doctrine would require of you that you also should live as the Apostles of Christ did and Imitate or follow their example and that relisheth not with you therefore you say my Shadow hurteth some viz the false or wicked Spiritualty or Clergy very Mightily It may not be otherwise it must so come to passe 180. But I know very Many Spiritual Priests or Clergy-Men whom it will NOT hurt but do them much good whose Office of the Ministry is sincerely and earnestly intended by them BUT who can do any thing before the Time which bringeth ALL THINGS to passe 181. If the Primate with his Warning or admonition intend so faithfully then let him leave his reproaching Blasphemies in the PULPIT and only require me to come to him and shew me my Errour if I did but find that he had any thing of Truth against me and would shew me a better way O how I would cheerfully love him and faithfully thank him for it he rejoyceth that he hath but any thing that he CAN reproach 182. AT the beginning after his first reproaching Blasphemy and persecution I bowed and yeelded to him for Six years together and wrote No word further of my works why did not he cease to Reproach who did any thing to him But he could not why Because God had made him a driving Hammer that must drive on the work 183. His reproaching hath become my strength and growth through his Persecution my Pearl is grown he hath pressed it forth and published it himselfe and
where will you go in when the Supream Richter or Judge CHRIST whom you disgrace in his Members will appear in his wrath and will Richten den Richtenden Richter Judge the Judging Judge and will himself be the jus right or Law and the Judgement 10. That Richter or Judge will not respect a Primate or his followers which he draws after him nor any King Prince or Lord of the world according to the Authority they have had nor their Laws Statutes or Institutions but will judge the LIFE and try it in HIS Fire 11. Where will then your reproachings and disgracings abide which you have exercised against Christ in his Members It is written he that blasphemeth the Holy Spirit hath no forgivenesse Eternally Math. 3. 29. What will you then Answer to him you who have knowingly blasphemed his Gists and so miserably persecuted the Children of Christ when Christ will say What you have done to these the least of my brethren you have done unto me what Answer will you then Give 12. You despise me in that I am a Layick and not come from the high Schools or Vniversities with my skill or knowledge and cry out Fy upon my Gifts which yet I have received from God as a Noble Bounty which also is more dear to me than the whole world and reproachest my Trade or Handicraft with your crying fye upon it and callest it together with my Gift a stink how can it go well with you when such reproaching blasphemies and your crying fy upon it whereby you cry fy upon the Gift of the Holy Spirit shall awaken in you in Body and Soul and become kindled with Gods Anger so that the world will become too narrow for you what would you then afterwards give that you had never done such a thing 13. The Spirit which now rejoyceth you that you may have your will upon me with reproaches and disgraces If that should now become a Hellish fire and enter into your Conscience where will you then remain 14. You force Tears from me and earnest Prayers against the reproaching or blaspheming of God in that you blame me altogether with untruth have a care that my Tears become not Red hot Coals upon your head 15. I have prayed much to God for you that God would enlighten you and give you to acknowledge the Truth but you become continually the worse I will be blamelesse concerning you if Gods Anger touch you 16. Why do you despise me because I am a Layick and yet have high Divine aud Naturall knowledge Do you suppose the Holy Spirit is bound to your Schools or Universities Did not our dearest Christ say My Father will give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him for it Luke 11. 13. Also ask and you shall receive seek and you shall find knock and it will be opened unto you Matth 7. 7. 17. I have received my Gift through earnest PRAYING and knocking and relish it so that I would not give it for all the worlds Honours and Goods also can never deny or forsake it wherefore do you ascribe the Gift of God to the Devill 18. Do but look back into the world what kind of simple People hath he used for his work what was Abel Seth Enoch and Noah what were the Patriarchs Shepheards none of them was a Doctor what was Moses A Shepheard what was David A Shepheard what were the Prophets especially Elisha and Habbakkuk honest simple people who were Tillers of the Ground what was Mary the Mother of our Lord CHRIST A poor honest destitute young Maid what was the Foster-Father of Christ during his child-hood A Carpenter what were Christs Apostles all of them poor simple Handicrafts-men or Trades-men as Fisher-men and the like why did not Christ reject them also seeing they had not studyed did HE cry fy upon them because they were Handicrafts People as you do 19. What was Christian Nobility from the Beginning even Humility and the Feare of God where now lyeth your great boasting in the Scripture as also in Art shew me it Saint Paul was a Scribe learned in the Scriptures but when he became a Christian then he must first become a Fool to his Art and knowledg that the divine wisdom might find a place in him 20. Why do you brag so much of your Art if you call your self a Christian do you not know that we are ALL ONE in Christ which is Christ us ALL If Christ teacheth us and loveth us why then do you curse us and call Christ in US a stink 21. Moreover hath not that an ill aspect or symptome as if the ill spirit were in you that can not endure Christ nor willingly would see that Men do repent and pray being you call Repentence and Prayer a stink which you can not deny being you say that every Line is a blasphemy against God and you forbid the people to read it under pain of Eternall punishment 22. Do but open your Heart and read that little book aright you will find some what else therein you have not read it at all yet that I perceive by the Title of your Libell for you set down the Title wrong and have not seen the little book of true Refignation of the Imitation or following of Christ therein you set the Morning Rednesse or Aurora for the First Book of which you know little or nothing and the way to Christ for the Seccond Book and yet it is no single Book but is only the Generall Title And the Book of Repentance he sets for the Third whereas it is the First in the printed Book and the last he hath never seen 23. O Primate Satan hath blinded you and led you into Anger that for anger you could not so much as read it but he hath instantly made haste with you to reproachings and scandalizing for it is a stink in his Eyes thus you have imitated and followed him do but drive away Evill affections from you and read it aright and you will see very much otherwise therein 24. Also you know that God hath converted ' some thereby so that they are entered into true Repentance and have attained that very thing which Christ hath promised us that is to say the Gift of the Holy Spirit Luke 11. 13. there are eminent Examples neer by 25. These Mens Gifts of the Holy Spirit you call them all A stink whereby Men may espye and discerne that this little Book is altogether against the Devill and that in you no good Spirit must dwell while you blaspheme the Gift of God for you say this Stink viz Repentance and Prayer which is the whole Contents of this Book be farre from you it may well so come to passe that Gods Gifts should remove and be farre from you Libell 26. You say also that Great Plagues hang over those places where such Blasphemy against God unpunished may be devised divulged and beleeved where Men may also freely without interruption think write beleeve
shall see visions Joel 2. 28. also at that time I will pour out my Spirit upon servants and hand-mayds why will you hinder the Spirit of the Lord 47. If you see any of them then you say he is the Devill and put reproachfull blasphemous names upon him and cry out Men should baneish him from City and Country pray shew in your banishing your Christian Heart 48. Are you Christs Shepheard where is your Love wherewith Christ hath loved us and wherewith we should also Love one another John 13. Doth the Scripture bid you drive out and hunt any into Misery without hearing of any Cause what doth it say to you If thou seest that thy Brother is a Heathen then go to him and admonish him in private if he yeeldeth to thee then hast thou wonne thy Brother if not then take one or two with thee if he yeeldeth not then shew it to the Congregation if he hear not the Congregation then account him as a Heathen and Publican Matth 18. 15. Not hunt him out and reproach and condemn him unheard as you have done to me 49. You have set your self in a Judgement that doth not belong to you read I pray the Epistles of Saint Paul to Titus and Timothy How a Bishop ought to be and then you will find that you have not a right Bishops Heart 50. Why do you reprove my Book Morning Rednesse or Aurora seeing you do not understand it also it is not written for the Pulpit or that it should come among the People I have written it for my selfe for a Memoriall to me with such words as at that time I could understand what is that to THEE why have you published it and leant it to other People None had known of it if you had not mentioned and divulged it in the Pulpit and lent it abroad 51. Thou supposest thou wilt stop and hinder these writings and yet thou thy self art he that furtherest them None would have known any things of me and of MY writittings if THOU thy self hadst not proclaimed them and lent them out 52. Afterward the Learned enquired for them they have all had none so ill thoughts of them as you have Men may indeed find as Learned People among them as you are surely it is not you alone that have studied also a Man may find more fear of God in many of them who read these writings and account them Good then in you which you demonstrate by this Libell and by your whole Life 53. But all the works of God must serve him God hath used you for an Instrument of this Publication of them which God hath given me to know therefore have I patiently a long time born upon me your unjust reproachings and disgracings wherein yet no true word hath been elfe I would have answered you long agoe 54. You liken my Book of Repentance to the Heresie of Arrius and say that the Eastern Countryes for the sake of that are punished with horrible darknesse and if men do not wholly root out my writings and hunt me therewith out of the Countrey then it would go just so with us also 55. Tell me I pray whether also Lying and Sinne be from the Devill or no shew me the Opinion of Arrius in my little prayer-Prayer-Book there is indeed more Devotion and divine power in the words of that little book then is yet at this time come into your heart which a Man may observe by your injurious persecution in that you would wholly root out the Authour for his divine Gifts sake had you the power I should not live one jot longer 56. Christ said Be ye Mercifull as your Heavenly Father is Mercifull forgive and you shall be forgiven Luke 6. 36. Also Blessed are the Mercifull for they shall obtain Mercy Also Blessed are the Peaceable for they shall be called the Children of God Matth 5. 7. 9. Where is your Mercifullness and peacefull Heart do but once put away the Serpents poyson from it and Sease from reproaching and forcing untruth upon me that I may acknowledge you that you are a Christian in the Meeknesse of Christ 57. Hearken Herr Primarius Lord Primate do you know wherefore God took from the Eastern Countreys the Candlestick as he threatens in the Revelations It was for the sake of the Contention Pride and State of the Learned in that they were only Mouth Christians and sought only their Belly God and earthly Lucifer and covered the Antichrist with Christ Purple Mantle and contended about Opinihns they forsork the Holy Spirit in Power and set themselves in Christs stead they were but contenders and disputes and their Aime was only at honour and respect 58. These things the Eastern Countreys looked upon and saw that in such Contention Gods Love was not and in that respect they began to doubt concerning the Faith and seeing the Learned did but contend and one part acknowledged Christ and the other part denied him and run on to meer IMAGES and Opinions wherein none saw conformity to the other then the Potentates thought with themselves who knoweth how it is with the Priests contention whether there be any thing in IT or no 59. Then came forth Mahumet and taught the ONE only God without Trinity to whom the people fell away when they saw that therein there was no strife in respect of the TRINITY for they had enough of strife 60. Also God permitted it to be so because in their Contention they did only blaspheme CHRIST then he took the Candlestick away and so they became Mahumetans and began to warre and dispute with bloud and Sword and drave out the Titulary and Mouth-Christians and God suffered it that they might no more contend about Christs honour seeing Christ honour is only Humility and Love 61. Behold and consider well how are you the Learned at present marked or characterized howiis it concerning Christs Kingdome among you see and compare the Times of Arrianisme and the strife of the Learned in respect of the Religion of your Times and your Contention which you have had along time 62. Shew me the true Christ in Love and meeknesse in all your Books of controversie or Contention are they not meer libellous papers and reproachfull slanders and evill affections wherein every one cryeth out Heresie Here is Christ there is Christ behold he is in the Wildernesse in the Chamber in the Field Also in the Supper in the Baptisme and in Confession and the other say No he is not there it is only a Remembrance and send forth such blasphemies reproaches and disgracings about Christs Cup Office and Person as was done in the time of Arrius 63. Therefore you are now your own Prophet and threaten darknesse to your selfe it may very well befall you and unlesse you be altogether blind you may see it before your eyes yet you had rather contend and reproach Gods children yes wholly thrust from you CHRIST in his Members then repent
whom he is Libell 81. Moreover the Libell calls me a perjured Shoemaker and in the Pulpit he hath called me a Rascally knave Answer 82. This reproachfull defamation is in all Statutes and Laws of the Empire forbidden upon pain of severe punishment that none should disgrace anothers good Name and honour or should make any defamatory Libell or disgracefull writings He should be the Man to forbid others and doth it himself 83. O Primate I ask you if I had caused such a Libell to be printed against you and had So abominably vilified and disgraced you to what place would you have sent it and condemned it surely to the Gallows and the Authour with it but what shall I say to you even God forgive it you 84. I have sworn an Oath to the Emperour also to the Prince Elector my Gracious Lord as also to the honourable Councill and the City Goerlitz to be true and faithfull in their defence and that I have firmly kept to this very houre and you call me a perjured or forsworn Fellow Rascally Knave I have brought my honour reputation to Goerlitz and you would bereave me of it for a perjured Man is not good enough to be in any bodies company 85. Well now you should and ought to demonstrate that I am such a one and flee with earnest complaint for it to the Magistrate and implore Justice and protection but seeing you oppresse me therefore in the mean time these deaming reproaches shall rest upon your selfe so long till you set before my Eyes my perjury 86. You have studied upon it this Fasting Time how you might bespatter Christs Children in the whole Church or Congregation with Serpents filth so that they are become Reproachers and disgrace me and have not stopped there but moreover caused such defaming Poyson to be printed that they may read it at home and tickle themselves therewith that the Devill indeed may be proudly Courted and Banqueted in state 87. I ask also your selfe is not that a sign of the Antichrist was not this your Office and Ministry that you should this Fasting Time have considered CHRISTS Bitter Passion Dying and Bloud-shedding and represent it well to your Parish Children that they might also have laid it to Heart but you on the Contrary have this Fasting time contrived two Libells and been angry at miserable People so that you have been fain to leave Christs Passion Wounds and Death lying on the Sick-bed and you lay your self by it as an awakened Poyson 88. Thus unworthy have you been before the Eyes of God consider your self a little seriously if men would lay it rightly to heart it might well make ones Haire stand upright for fear and amazement that you possesse the place of God and stand in the stead of the Holy Spirit and yet poure out such poyson upon the poor innocent People and not only here at Goerlitz but you also send your disgracefull writings into strange places and Countreys and poyson them so that they help you to reproach and blaspheme 89. All this is a certain sign of the Antichrist which the Libell would thrust upon me I pray and he curseth me Now judge upon it those that understand with which of US Antichrist dwells Libell 90. O Christ the Holy Spirit hath anointed thee with Oyle more then thy fellowes and hath made thee a Priest But thou Shoemaker the Devill hath desiled thee with Dirt and Dung and made thee a Heretick Answer 91. The Holy Spirit hath anointed Christ and his Children with Gods Oyle of Gladnessâ— and hath introduced that anointing into our Soul so that we beleeve in him and that I take or receive to my Self as a Branch of Christ and have tasted his Anointing powerfully in me which I rejoyce my selfe IN under the Crosse of CHRIST in my bodily Misery 92. But that the Primate saith the Devill hath defiled mewith Dirt and Dung that is true after his manner for that very Dung wherewith the Devill hath defiled me is his reproaching in the Pulpit against me and this Evill dirty Libell wherewith the Antichristian Devill hath defiled me and made me as a Fool before the whole Congregation so that the Ignorant People which have a Mind to it cast such Dirt at me But the Primate thinks it were better to throw Stones at me for then would the Book of Repentance have a riddance out of the way But the remembrance of Steven is still taught at this very day though the High-Priests did Stone him Acts. 7. 57. what God builds no Devill CAN destroy 93. But that he also saith and made thee a Heretick that is also a Ray of Antichrists colours for when Men would persecute the right true Christians and worry burn and kill them then hath Antichrist cryed out they are Hereticks none other Cause Men had to bring against them yet thereupon execution proceeded 94. O how will these Hereticks at the last Judgement day be set before your Eyes when they shall be set in the divine Power with Christ in the Judgement and judge the Antichrist who hath persecuted and killed them what will you then answer to CHRIST and to me when your Libell will burn forth IN your Soul who hath given you authority so to Judge demonstrate it out of the Apostles doctrine There is yet time to ropent before I must through Gods driving summon you before the severe Judgement of Jesus Christ Observe what I say to you I am a Christian in Christ you call Christ in his Member a Heretick and his power Dirt or Dung. 95. The Mercifullnesse of Christ calleth you herewith yet once more to try whether you will repent if Not I will be blamelesse concerning you if you be set in the Judgement you have a great Mountain before you through which you must climb up then if Christ leave you you may well remain Eternally in this Cliffe 96. Observe what is said to you it is well known Hypocrisie availeth nothing it must be earnest sincerity to sinne upon Grace makes a Man uncapable of Grace the hour is neer be perswaded you will have no Such Protector or assistance there as you draw to your self here upon which you relye you must stand before My eyes and give an account for your Malice and reproaching Blasphemy 97. Christ in me and in all the Members of Christ citoth you before the Judgement of Christ what shall I then say to you for all your scandalous blemishes you have put upon me here on Earth I pray you as a fellow Member of my Soul convert yet while the Door of Grace standeth open before the Great Cliffe or Gulfe between me and you be shut Luke 16. 26. 98. It becometh A High-Priest indeed very ill who should bring into his mouth the Divine word of the Love of Christ that instead thereof taketh filth into his mouth and polluteth Christs word which he should teach with filth and spit such filth into the Heart of the
