Mirabilia opera Dei Certaine wonderfull Works of God which hapned to H. N. even from his youth and how the God of Heaven hath united himself with him and raised up his gracious Word in him and how he hath chosen and sent him to be a Minister of his gracious Word Published by Tobias a Fellow Elder with H. N. in the Houshold of Love Translated out of Base Almain Now come hither and behold the works of the Lord Ps. 46 66. Know ye that the Lord leadeth his Saints wonderfully Ps. 4. a. And take heed that ye do not despise the works of the Lord lest there come upon you that which is said in the Prophets Behold ye despisers and wonder and perish for I do a work in your days which you will in no wise believe though a man declare it unto you Hab. 1. a. Acts 13. b. THE PREFACE Tobias with H. N. a fellow Minister of the gracious Word of the Lord wisheth to all lovers of Truth Salvation and Peace in Jesus Christ our Lord Amen FOrasmuch as I Tobias a fellow Elder with the Oldest Elders in the Houshold of Love have alwayes been present with H. N. in all what the Lord hath revealed unto him and now in this day of the Love of Iesus Christ am impulsed of the Holy Ghost to declare and to publish among the children of men under the obedience of the love of the Truth of certain wonderful works of God which befell H. N. and us the oldest Elders in the house of Love and that I also know that H. N. Gods chosen Minister and his ministration of the gracious Word of the Lord hath been disorderly rejected and censured with several false judgements by many false hearts and good-thinking wise-ones by many false Christians and unsent Teachers or Preachers and by some unfaithfull and opinionated self-seekers who are turned away from us And that the Godly Testimonies of the holy Spirit of the Love of Iesus Christ published by H. N. were by many disgracefully contemned and reproached as if God had neither chosen nor sent H. N. to be a Minister of his holy and gracious Word and as if the holy Spirit of the Love of Iesus Christ were an unclean thing So have I for Gods cause and in regard of the Love which I bear and have to all mens salvation I could not omit to declare to all God-fearing-understandings and Lovers of the Truth That they may believe the Truth understand the Godly Testimonies of the holy Spirit of Love and may be preserved in these dangerous times and to witnesse the Truth before them how and in what manner the Lord the living God of Heaven hath chosen H. N. from his youth to the ministration of his holy and gracious word and hath sent him thereunto in his old age of the holy and godly understanding through the holy Spirit of his Love 2 For the holy Spirit of the Truth of God and of the Love of Iesus Christ was alwayes powerfully abiding upon H. N. in all his ministrations after that the Lord had anointed him a with the same spirit and hath through the same spirit raised and sent him for to declare to all people the true b repentance for their sinnes and to draw and bring in through his ministration of the holy and gracious Word all those that love Gods Truth and the accomplishment of the Godlinesse in Iesus Christ and hunger and thirst after righteousnesse c to the peaceable Love and his Godly service for the preservation of them all in the Godlinesse that all they which H. N. and our fellowship may have their communion in Iesus Christ and may not be seduced in these dangerous times in which if it were possible the very elect d should be seduced with the unprofitable prating of the false hearts and unsent Teachers or Preachers which alwayes oppose the Truth of God e and blaspheme against the holy Spirit nor through any depraved hearts and Apostates who continually accuse with falshood the true Ministers of the gracious word and endeavour with all their power to abolish the same ministration nor should be kept of or held back from our most holy Service of the gracious word under the obedience of the Love to their condemnation 3 And therefore and for the Truth of Gods cause and for to declare the knowledge that the Promises of God the Father and of the Lord Iesus Christ g be fullfilled and established in the Love So is there also now presently in this same day of the Love in plain words to all understanding and before all good-willing hearts unto the righteousnesse through H. N. testified and published what that very thing which the Gracious Word of the Lord which the Lord now hath raised up according to his Promises doth require of all men 4 And for to witness and publish the truth that the Lord hath chosen and sent H. N. therefore have I through the holy Spirit of the Love of Iesus Christ plainly testified and declared the sending of H. N. also certaine wonderfull workes of God which from his youth hapned unto him from the living God That all those which read or hear all the Godly Testimonies of our writings may believe the Truth with a single heart to have a right regard to the true Promises of the Father and of the Sonne our Lord Iesus Christ and of the accomplishing of the same and may hope upon the fulfilling of the requiring of the gracious word and of his service of Love and rightly and in Truth follow and imitate our Lord Iesus Christ in the saving word of his holy Spirit of Love h and might be of one mind with us and our communialtie of the Saints i in the Love of our Lord Iesus k into all unity and peace 5 And likewise that through the same declaration the enemies of H. N. together with all the opposers and reprochers of the Truth and of the holy Spirit of the Love of Iesus Christ may see and know That they have villified and contemned not onely H. N. a choseu servannt of God but also God the Father the builder of our house of Love and the Lord Iesus Christ our Phisician and Saviour and the holy Ghost the inheritance of our spiritual and heavenly goods l and have pulled upon their own necks the wrath and judgement of their condemnation That they with humble hearts might bring forth real fruits of repentance 6 For it is not unknown or uncertaine to us that H. N. doth testifie out of the Truth of God and his gracious word and that the office of the ministration of the gracious Word is imposed and intrusted to him through m God's grace to administer for the Lord

the inheritance of the Lord Let us accuse Him x that is his body and bloud or his Fellowship of Love with all manner of malignity or unjust actions and let us charge him with most wicked things let us destroy or kill him with the most shamefullest sufferings or let him be delivered up to the Iudge to his * slaughter or destruction So remain y we in the Inheritance in the estimation among men that we are pure upright and have right in our cause or demands against him his Communialty of Love 44 Thus we observed in the union with the Body and bloud of Jesus Christ that the wicked hardened hearts against us the Body bloud of Jesus Christ likewise the apostates from the obedience of the Truth did all their endeavour or diligence to have the estimation amongst z men as if they against that Body and bloud of Jesus Christ and against us were * upright and did well therein although they earnestly endevoured wholy to dishonour Jesus Christ and us and to make us detestable before men and likewise that precious pure bloud of Jesus Christ that was to the forgiveness of sinnes d shead for many wherewith we with our bloud are become one bloud to defame as impure before all men so that the same is * despised for unclean among many And as unclean might be poured forth and trampled upon 45 Now when we thus observed the rising up of the wicked and all Hypocrites and enemies of the Godly Life against the Body and bloud of Jesus Christ And beheld that the Body bloud of Jesus Christ wherewith we were become one body and bloud was suffering all that with lowly and meek hearts without resisting so we saw and observed that the same Body and bloud of Jesus Christ in all his suffering and reproach opened a not his mouth even as a Lambe that is led to the slaughter-house and as a sheep that is dumbe before his shearer Where through we also in all our sufferings wherewith we were one Body and bloud with him were wholy moved with his sufferings So that we also in our whole Body and bloud obteined an inclination to suffer with them we found our selves wholy prepared rather to suffer to die with him forasmuch as we knew him righteous then to live in sin with the falshood of the false hearts with the sin of sinners and enemies of the Godly life 46 And thus travelling forth in this-Good-willingness with Jesus Christ b we came on the seventh sixth day to the * accomplishing of the sufferings of Jesus Christ wherein we observed the whole summe of the finishing and fulfilling or satisfaction of Jesus Christ and his Believers unto the true Godliness 47 For in this fulfilling or or accomplishing we perceived in the understanding That all men who will live and reign with the Lord Jesus Christ in his Glory must also c suffer with Christ and then likewise with Christ enter into the Glory of Christ and inherit the same 48 Furthermore wee observed also in this accomplishment to what end this Gospel of the Kingdom is d published in all the World and from thence cometh the accomplishment and fulfilling of e all that is written of Christ and the salvation of man 49 There was also in the same * accomplishment fully revealed and in clearness made manifest * unto us The whole Scripture which testifieth of Christ and of his Sufferings or Passeover and of the upright righteousness of men in Jesus Christ And f how that Christ like as we have heard and seen of him in his sufferings and passed through with him must suffer all these things and so to enter into his Glory and thus g go before all sinful men in to the entrance of the eternal life and the Kingdom of Heavens that they also should follow after him therein and inherit with him the eternal life 50 For Christ h must thus * suffer and accomplish his love to us and so go before us as an * Innocent and that he also by his guiltless sufferings should be an example or patern to all sinful men and thereby to shew unto them that they by reason of their sins are debtors to the same sufferings and as debtors to i follow him therein and to draw unto him all men who are loaden with sins and also to acquit them though his Body and bloud and through his like sufferings from their sins to deliver k them from the bonds of death and to save them and restore or bring them again with him in all upright righteousness and holiness to their God his heavenly Father and to his glory in the kingdom of God and in the everlasting life 51 And that wee might uprightly endeavour us to this aforesaid accomplishment with the Lord Jesus Christ and the * humanity and rightly enter into and inherit the same with the Lord Jesus Christ according to the truth of Jesus Christ and according to the requiring of the obedience of his belief So gave wee up our selves there on the same seventh sixth day of our travelling into a good * custody with the Body and bloud of Jesus Christ which standeth upon the Mount Nebo l on the uppermost height top or firmness from whence we obtein'd the sight of the holy inheritance of God of his living ones 52 And on the same Mount * Nebo there was revealed and made known unto us also m the secret place where the Prophet Jeremian had hid the true Tabernacle and Ark and the true Altar of the Offerings of Incense And the time also was come or accomplished in which the Lord should be merciful unto his people and bring them to his rest 53 And the same good * watchfunless to which we betook our selves on the Mount Nebo was the true n implanting with Christ in his like death and the right implanting with Christ in his like burial 54 Of this implanting with Christ in his like death and of the implanting with Christ in his like burial wee were very firmly embraced 55 At the same instant in the embracing of the implanting with Christ in his like death and burial we offered to the God of Heaven on his Altar of Incense in the Holy of the true Tabernacle our free willing Offering in the Offering * of the High Priest Jesus Christ And o the Offering of the High Priest Jesus Christ kindled or fired our Offering And thus our Offering was a hollowed burnt Offering before the Lord And the Lord Jesus Christ made this our Offering through his Offering acceptable before God his Father and the holy of his Tabernacle was full of sweet perfumes and the p veile opened asunder and the most holiest in his pure and perfect beauty was revealed and Christ also according to
