A76959 The tree of Christian faith: being a true information, how a man may be one spirit with God, and what man must do to perform the works of God: in which is comprehended (compendiously) the whole Christian doctrine and faith. Item, what faith and doctrine is: an open gate of the great mystery of God out of the divine Magia, through the three principles of the divine being. / Written in High Dutch by Jacob Behmen.; Baum des christlichen Glaubens.

77._o the_o inner_a spirit_n be_v only_o to_o reveal_v in_o the_o external_a mirror_n the_o eternal_a wonder_n which_o be_v see_v in_o god_n wisdom_n in_o the_o abyss_n in_o the_o divine_a magia_n and_o bring_v it_o to_o a_o formal_a mirror_n as_o to_o a_o wonderful_a game_n to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o joy_n of_o the_o inner_a man_n bear_v out_o of_o god_n 78._o but_o his_o

bring_v his_o love_n in_o which_o the_o image_n stand_v into_o the_o earthly_a be_v as_o into_o a_o earthly_a treasure_n into_o a_o earthly_a vessel_n 80._o now_o the_o image_n grow_v earthly_a through_o imagination_n and_o so_o go_v again_o into_o death_n lose_v god_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o will_n stand_v with_o the_o love_n in_o the_o external_a life_n 81._o now_o the_o external_a life_n must_v die_v and_o break_v that_o the_o create_a image_n of_o the_o inner_a kingdom_n may_v appear_v 82._o thus_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o will_n strike_v with_o the_o love_n into_o the_o external_a wonder_n and_o bring_v they_o at_o the_o death_n of_o the_o external_a life_n along_o before_o god_n judgement_n 83._o there_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o will_n must_v go_v through_o pass_v the_o fire_n and_o the_o image_n must_v be_v approve_v in_o the_o fire_n and_o all_o earthliness_n must_v burn_v away_o from_o the_o image_n she_o must_v be_v pure_a and_o without_o spot_n 84._o even_o as_o the_o light_n subsi_v in_o the_o fire_n so_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o will_n must_v subsist_v also_o in_o god_n fire_n and_o if_o it_o can_v there_o pass_v free_o through_o god_n fire_n than_o this_o image_n be_v spew_v out_o into_o eternal_a darkness_n 85._o and_o this_o be_v the_o heavy_a fall_n of_o adam_n that_o he_o do_v set_v the_o spirit_n of_o his_o will_n into_o the_o external_a life_n into_o the_o outer_a principle_n in_o the_o false_a infection_n and_o imagine_v after_o the_o earthly_a life_n 86._o and_o thus_o he_o go_v out_o of_o

thus_o we_o understand_v that_o lust_n be_v the_o cause_n why_o corruption_n be_v come_v in_o and_o still_o do_v 2._o for_o lust_n be_v a_o imagination_n where_o the_o imagination_n wind_v herself_o

inner_a be_v infect_v 4._o and_o because_o he_o do_v not_o feel_v death_n instant_o therefore_o have_v he_o bring_v the_o spirit_n of_o his_o will_n to_o the_o outer_a thus_o the_o outer_a go_v to_o

the_o noble_a image_n be_v destroy_v and_o waste_v and_o must_v be_v new_o bear_v again_o out_o of_o god_n 9_o therefore_o do_v god_n come_v with_o his_o word_n which_o be_v the_o centre_n in_o the_o
