A58336 A divine looking-glass, or, The third and last testament of Our Lord Jesus Christ whose personal residence is seated on his throne of eternal glory in another world : being the commission of the spirit, agreeing with, and explaining of the two former commissions of the law and Gospel, differing only in point of worship : set forth for the tryal of all sorts of supposed spiritual lights in the world, until the ever-lasting true Jesus, the onely high and mighty God, pesonally appear in the air with his saints and angels / by John Reeve and Lodowick Muggleton ...

a_o signification_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n and_o form_n of_o a_o something_o that_o be_v infinite_a 10_o it_o be_v as_o clear_a as_o the_o pure_a light_n itself_o unto_o you_o that_o be_v

call_v not_o only_o by_o three_o divine_a title_n but_o by_o threescore_o thousand_o holy_a name_n also_o yet_o all_o the_o man_n in_o this_o world_n or_o angel_n in_o that_o world_n to_o come_v can_v

in_o this_o world_n may_v never_o attain_v to_o a_o right_a understanding_n of_o the_o very_a true_a god_n and_o the_o spiritual_a mystery_n of_o his_o everlasting_a kingdom_n by_o all_o their_o rational_a study_n in_o the_o scripture_n record_n or_o any_o other_o way_n and_o that_o be_v the_o very_a cause_n that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v unto_o his_o own_o spiritual_a power_n

and_o that_o word_n holy_a ghost_n have_v reference_n unto_o a_o divine_a word_n of_o light_n life_n or_o power_n proceed_v from_o the_o invisible_a father_n through_o the_o glorious_a mouth_n of_o

christ_n god_n alone_o bless_v for_o ever_o and_o ever_o amen_n 17_o it_o be_v also_o as_o clear_a to_o you_o that_o be_v spiritual_a as_o the_o light_n itself_o that_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n can_v not_o possible_o be_v three_o distinct_a person_n or_o spirit_n in_o one_o godhead_n be_v or_o any_o such_o like_a confuse_a deity_n 18_o you_o know_v that_o wheresoever_o the_o

deceiver_n of_o the_o whole_a christian_a world_n so_o call_v which_o be_v in_o bondage_n to_o their_o confuse_a god_n and_o invent_v formality_n 19_o you_o know_v that_o in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o many_o several_a thing_n the_o scripture_n run_v in_o such_o a_o line_n as_o this_o to_o the_o only_a wise_a god_n or_o unto_o god_n only_o wise_a or_o though_o there_o be_v that_o be_v call_v many_o

by_o himself_o concern_v the_o transmutation_n of_o his_o uncreated_a glory_n and_o everlasting_a spiritual_a priesthood_n into_o a_o pure_a body_n of_o flesh_n blood_n and_o bone_n 22_o before_o the_o god_n of_o glory_n be_v descend_v into_o the_o virgin_n womb_n you_o know_v he_o have_v many_o holy_a name_n attribute_v unto_o he_o wherefore_o you_o may_v also_o know_v from_o all_o eternity_n he_o be_v a_o distinct_a divine_a person_n and_o not_o a_o infinite_a formless_a spirit_n as_o most_o man_n blind_o imagine_v 23_o you_o spiritual_a one_o may_v also_o know_v before_o he_o be_v

except_o he_o be_v a_o divine_a person_n distinct_a from_o heaven_n earth_n water_n angel_n man_n and_o all_o thing_n else_o 24_o that_o the_o one_o personal_a infinite_a majesty_n may_v remain_v in_o

shall_v be_v dissolve_v and_o the_o element_n shall_v melt_v with_o heat_n a_o threefold_a cord_n be_v not_o easy_o break_v 8_o if_o any_o hypocrite_n shall_v go_v about_o by_o his_o serpentine_a sophistry_n to_o tell_v you_o that_o be_v spiritual_o weak_a those_o say_n of_o peter_n have_v relation_n to_o the_o burn_a up_o of_o the_o carnal_a heaven_n and_o earth_n in_o man_n through_o the_o glorious_a appear_v of_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n you_o may_v with_o ease_n confute_v those_o notional_a cheat_n if_o you_o look_v back_o upon_o the_o ground_n of_o peter_n say_n the_o word_n be_v these_o know_v this_o first_o that_o there_o shall_v come_v in_o the_o last_o day_n scoffer_n walk_v after_o their_o own_o lust_n and_o say_v where_o be_v the_o promise_n of_o his_o come_n for_o since_o the_o father_n fall_v asleep_a all_o thing_n continue_v as_o they_o be_v from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o creation_n for_o this_o they_o willing_o be_v ignorant_a of_o that_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o heaven_n be_v of_o old_a and_o the_o earth_n stand_v out_o of_o the_o water_n and_o in_o the_o water_n whereby_o the_o world_n than_o be_v overflow_v with_o water_n perish_v 9_o thus_o you_o that_o have_v never_o so_o little_a truth_n of_o the_o true_a jesus_n in_o you_o may_v clear_o see_v that_o the_o apostle_n peter_n in_o this_o threefold_a language_n have_v not_o the_o least_o thought_n in_o he_o concern_v heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v burn_v up_o within_o man_n but_o the_o burn_a up_o of_o the_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o the_o beauty_n virtue_n or_o glory_n thereof_o without_o man_n which_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o man_n handiwork_n why_o because_o you_o see_v the_o apostle_n ground_n his_o matter_n upon_o the_o drown_n of_o a_o outward_a earthly_a world_n 10_o moreover_o you_o may_v also_o know_v that_o it_o be_v a_o burn_a up_o of_o a_o visible_a heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o the_o glory_n thereof_o mean_v by_o peter_n why_o because_o the_o apostle_n tell_v you_o that_o there_o shall_v come_v in_o the_o last_o day_n scoffer_n walk_v after_o their_o own_o lust_n and_o say_v where_o be_v the_o promise_n of_o his_o come_n 11_o furthermore_o if_o it_o have_v be_v a_o invisible_a burn_a up_o the_o fleshly_a heaven_n in_o man_n only_o what_o lustful_a man_n in_o the_o world_n will_v have_v scoff_v at_o such_o a_o doctrine_n which_o do_v encourage_v he_o in_o his_o lust_n rather_o than_o discourage_v he_o in_o the_o least_o 12_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o the_o reason_n my_o ground_n be_v this_o because_o by_o lustful_a serpent_n like_o himself_o he_o be_v persuade_v that_o christ_n will_v burn_v up_o man_n lust_n and_o save_v all_o their_o soul_n at_o the_o last_o and_o who_o can_v find_v fault_n with_o such_o a_o burn_a doctrine_n or_o wha●_n bloody-minded_a man_n or_o woman_n in_o the_o world_n will_v not_o embrace_v a_o messenger_n of_o such_o tiding_n as_o this_o be_v 13_o again_o you_o may_v know_v i_o have_v write_v the_o truth_n by_o this_o token_n why_o because_o man_n that_o be_v guilty_a of_o almost_o all_o manner_n of_o lust_n can_v go_v into_o lumber_n street_n to_o hear_v man_n speak_v much_o concern_v the_o glorious_a income_v of_o a_o spiritual_a christ_n to_o burn_v up_o all_o their_o fleshly_a or_o heavenly_a conceitedness_n that_o they_o may_v see_v nothing_o in_o they_o but_o god_n only_o triumph_v on_o his_o throne_n i_o say_v these_o or_o such_o like_a expression_n the_o most_o filthy_a of_o man_n can_v hear_v with_o delight_n 14_o moreover_o if_o you_o that_o speak_v in_o lumberstreet_n or_o else_o where_o shall_v once_o attain_v to_o the_o foundation_n of_o all_o spiritual_a speak_n and_o shall_v be_v able_a know_o to_o tell_v man_n of_o the_o sudden_a appear_v of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n in_o glory_n with_o his_o angel_n to_o burn_v this_o visible_a world_n to_o ash_n and_o to_o cause_v the_o spirit_n and_o body_n of_o man_n that_o glory_n in_o filthiness_n to_o burn_v as_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n together_o to_o eternity_n in_o utter_a darkness_n i_o be_o confident_a very_o few_o filthy_a person_n will_v be_v able_a to_o hear_v you_o speak_v twice_o together_o and_o then_o you_o will_v soon_o have_v a_o thin_a congregation_n and_o be_v as_o much_o affect_v as_o man_n be_v with_o we_o for_o what_o we_o speak_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n 15_o what_o be_v the_o ground_n think_v you_o of_o so_o many_o dreadful_a fire_n this_o year_n in_o this_o city_n and_o other_o part_n above_o the_o memory_n of_o man_n i_o know_v with_o astrologian_n sophister_n you_o may_v impute_v it_o to_o planet_n plot_n or_o people_n want_n of_o care_n but_o of_o the_o contrary_n i_o believe_v you_o serpent_n sign-monger_n will_v find_v these_o fire_n come_v not_o mere_o by_o natural_a cause_n but_o by_o a_o divine_a power_n as_o a_o forerunner_n of_o the_o eternal_a burn_v this_o world_n and_o all_o the_o natural_a glory_n therein_o to_o dust_n powder_n or_o dry_a

to_o himself_o 18_o further_n it_o be_v write_v when_o christ_n which_o be_v our_o life_n shall_v appear_v then_o shall_v you_o also_o appear_v with_o he_o in_o glory_n 19_o my_o belove_a friend_n

you_o see_v that_o the_o apostle_n never_o boast_v that_o he_o be_v glorify_v with_o christ_n already_o neither_o do_v he_o expect_v any_o glory_n but_o rather_o continual_a shame_n until_o christ_n
