Concerning the Scriptures. 3. Concerning faith, love and works. 4. Concerning baptism and the Lords Supper. 5. Concerning the Sabbath. 6. Concerning tythes. 7. Concerning swearing. Although many of the servants of God have born a large testimony in these latter dayes, in which the Lord is establishing the mountain of his own house a top of all mountains, Isaiah 2. 2. ... therefore in love to the truth, and in the motion of the gift received, I give my testimony of these things in the year 1666.

it_o be_v with_o the_o primitive_a christian_n before_o the_o deceiver_n and_o false_a prophet_n come_v in_o and_o the_o apostasy_n enter_v but_o christ_n declare_v of_o false_a prophet_n that_o

there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o oath_n but_o when_o man_n be_v fall_v from_o god_n his_o maker_n and_o lose_v the_o image_n of_o god_n death_n come_v over_o and_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o

of_o egypt_n he_o command_v they_o to_o swear_v by_o his_o name_n but_o from_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v not_o so_o but_o christ_n be_v come_v the_o beginning_n and_o the_o end_n the_o first_o and_o the_o last_o to_o restore_v man_n again_o into_o that_o which_o he_o be_v in_o the_o beginning_n as_o it_o be_v write_v the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v come_v to_o seek_v and_o to_o save_v that_o which_o
