where you are building up and flinging down that which ye have built and so makes your selves transgressors and upon you all this is the plague of the Lord God for many of you have been convinced in your Consciences when I was amongst you that all things were out of Order and that ye were not as ye should be but now are again pleading and contending for them and are licking up that which ye sometime vomited out and thus are you restless and out of peace as the wicked are who are like the troubled Sea and ye are gone from the Rock of ages Isa 58.12 and know not the Foundation of many generations and have laid another foundation then Christ Jesus the Corner-stone which is smiting at the feet of your Image which ye in your Imaginations have set up and the Lord God of life and power will over-turn over-turn over-turn until he Reign whose Right it is to Reign and the Lord hath dryed up the Sea hath discovered to his Children your Foundation you who know not what it is nor how any can be Baptized into the Name of the Lord which is the Nature of the Lord which Name none knowes saving he that hath it as Rev. 2.17 He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the Churches to him that overcome will I give to eat of the hidden Manna and I will give him a white stone and in this stone a new Name written which no man knowes saving he that receiveth it Rev. 3.12 And I will write upon him the Name of my God and the Name of the City of my God which is new Jerusalem which cometh down out of Heaven from my God and I will write upon him my new Name he that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith But you who are in the Mystery of iniquity are comprehended with the Mystery of God and your bottom seen and your sandy foundation discovered and the Beast Rules and Reigns amongst you as I have said before and ye are kicking and thrusting down one another who are gone from the Name of the Lord and power of the Lord and ye are in the many heads and many bodies Rev. 13.1 And I saw a beast rise up out of the Sea and here is all your foundation even in the waters and ye have all drunk of the Cup which is in the right hand of the Whore with whom the Kings of the earth have committed fornication which sitteth upon many waters Rev. 17.2 4. And upon her fore-head was a name written Mystery Babylon the great Mother of Harlots and the great abomination of the Earth and I saw the woman of the Martyrs of Jesus and when I saw her I wondered with great admiration And here is the mind that hath wisdom for the woman which thou sawest is that great City which reigneth over the Kings of the Earth ver 18. And he said unto me the waters which thou sawest where the Whore sitteth are Peoples and Multitudes Nations and Tongues and this is the state of all Nations and Multitudes an Peoples whatsoever of all Sects and Opinions Bodies and Heads who we gone from the one Body and one Head but know not the Name of the Lord and are not Baptized into the Name of the Lord 1 Cor. 12. For by one Spirit were they all Baptized into one Body and this is your state in particular who are called Baptists who are tossed up and down in your Imaginations and are as unstable as waters Gen. 49.4 and wavering as the waves of the Sea and are contending for shadowes and variable and changing things and are gone from the Rock of ages and from the sure Foundation and Tried-stone which standeth above the waters and in whom there is no shadow nor variableness neither shadow of turning Therefore to you all this is the Word of the Lord God come down to the Rock feel the Rock out of all your Thoughts Reasonings and Imaginations that you may eat the Bread of Life and be satisfied not as the fathers did eat Manna in the Wilderness and are dead neither as you are eating your carnal bread or drinking your carnal wine which bread must perish and go into the drought and that which eateth it must return to the dust as it was but that a man eat hereof and live for ever John 6.46 to the 61. Therefore all own that which will purifie you which is the Spirit of the Lord God a measure of which Spirit is given to every one of you to profit withal and so that will create in you a clean heart and anew heart as you obey it and then shall you come to witness the new wine in the new bottle and so both are preserved and neither spilt and saith Christ I will not henceforth drink any more the fruit of the vine until I drink it new with you in my Fathers Kingdom for the Spirit was not yet given nor the day was not yet come nor the shadows fled away But you are eating and discern not the Lords Body and ye are drinking Condemnation to your selves and wo be to all that eat and Christ is not with them in their eating for they know not the Word to sanctifie that which they eat but you are eating in the contention in the striving about words wherein there is no profit and one is covetous and another is proud and this is not to eat with singleness of heart as they did whom ye say ye imitate who was then of one heart and one Soul as the children of the Lord who are led by the light of the Lord are now whatever you may falsly slander them withal and so your table is become a snare unto you in whom the God of the World ruleth and hath blinded the eye which should discern the Lords body and your table is a table of Devils and ye cannot pertake of the Table of the Lord and the table of the Devils But the Lord hath blessed us and we are blessed and cursed is every one that curseth us and we sit round about our Fathers Table and we eat bread in our Fathers house and sit under our own vine and we drink of the new wine with him in our Fathers Kingdom and blessed are all them that eat bread in the Kingdom of God for they eat their bread with singleness of heart out of all strife and contention out of all transgression and sin and we witnesse him who doth finish transgression and puts an end to sin and brings us into his everlasting righteousness and his righteousnesse we know which is not as filthy raggs even the white linen which is the Saints righteousnesse and it is become unto us as a garment and to us it is a Helmet of Salvation and we are in him and not in our own righteousnesse and he that is in him and followes him is led in the way of righteousnesse and sinneth not John 5.1 John 3.6
