against the children of God who seek the good of thy soul and are in the godly life witness that of God in thy Conscience which hath made thy heart to fail and thy lips to quiver it s the worm that will never die and the fire that will never be quenched even the breath of the Lord which is the life of the Sons of God is as a river of brimstone kindling in the wicked who persecute the seed of God and make Petitions against the innocent breathing out threatnings against the Church which is in God the pillar and ground of truth wherein is the godly life whom you are found persecuting of and when any of the servants of the Lord hath from the mouth of the Lord in love to thy soul warned thee to turn from the evil of thy wayes perswading thee to believe in the light of Christ which convinceth of sin and calleth to depart out of the ungodly life that thou mayest be turned from darkness to light from the power of Satan to God and receive remission of sins and an inheritance amongst them that are sanctified and these hast thou shamefully entreated and they have been by thy command cast forth of thy Steeple-house and by some of them thou callest Christians plucked by the hair halled forth by the neck and their mouths stopped with their hands and thy own servant abusing in the street and hath given out threatnings against them that live in the truth and thou thy self hast had others before Magistrates who hath committed them to prison against whom could not be proved the breach of any Law let that of God in thy Conscience judge what image thou dost now bear what mark is on thy hand whether thou art not in the way that Persecution went before where the Dragon that old Serpent was head before and on thy forehead is the mark found by which the Beast is known that makes war with the Saints the seed of God in whom the godly life is persecuted by the Beast which is out of the godly life I judge the not there is one nigh that seeth and judgeth whose judgement is just unto him return that by him thou mayest read the number of thy name which is the number of a man who is in the ungodly life unto whom thou art joyned while thou art an example of pride and haughtiness of spirit and of covetousness who hast filled thy holes with prey and thy dens with raven thou art an example of strise and contention of malice and revenge of winebinbing and of pouring in of strong drink and of suing at the Law of respecting persons and of much idleness and thou knowest that thou dost love the things of this world which is joyned to another seed which is in the ungodly life which keepeth not the commands of God but eateth of the forbidden fruit let that of God in thy Conscience judge whether thou art not feeding on these things Serpent-like and seeketh to intice perswade and draw the simple to partake with thee in the transgression that so they might never come to know the innocent garment nor never come to have the pure eye opened but keep the evil eye open which cannot see God that so the curse and plague of God might come on them to the utmost even hardness of heart and blindness of mind and so be wholly turned away into the earth where the presence of God is not seen nor his pure life enjoyed nor the holy image of God known and there their nakedness doth appear and so the heart lusteth after and coveteth evil which is then become the husband by whom is conceived in the lust an image like to thy self whose fruits are evil and so thy fruits feedeth and strengthneth the wicked that is born of the earth and so the bands of iniquity and chains of darkness is by thee dubbled but assuredly the day is come and coming wherein the good and bad the just and the unjust shall arise to judgement wherefore awake and come forth unto the light from which

the world and all the plots and policies in the earth cannot deliver thee out of the reach of the hand of the Lord who is mighty against whom thou dost rebel but thou shalt not prosper for his hand takes hold of judgement the sword of his mouth is sharp and keen and in battel thou canst not stand against him from whom thou hast had sufficient warning but still refuseth counsel therefore if thou perish destruction will be of thy self and thy bloud be on thy own head And a Warning unto thee William Wilton who professeth thy self to be a Minister of the Gospel sent of Jesus Christ unto the People at Elburton unto thou I say in the name and fear of the Lord consider what Message thou hast there delivered Did Jesus Christ send thee thither to daub with untempered Morter to sew pillows under the peoples arm-holes to preach Peace to the wicked to whom there is no peace to strengthen the hands of evil doers that they may not turn from the evil of their ways and so thou healest the hurt of the inhabitants of Elburton slightly saying Peace peace and so cause them to trust in lying words that cannot profit like unto them that cryed The Temple of the Lord the Temple of the Lord and although they should steal murder and commit adultrey and swear falsly and burn incense unto B●ll and walk after other gods they might yet come and assemble together to whom thou hast spoken smooth things as though they are delivered to commit all these abominations Who sent thee to say the foulest sinner is in the fairest

after a little space thou wentst away but from the light of Christ thou canst not fly for there is no darkness nor shadow of death where the workers of iniquity can hide themselves and by the light which thou despisest art thou seen in the works of iniquity under death and after the shaddow thereof is thy heart and thoughts wandring and art not at all obedient to be taught lead and guided by Jesus Christ but art an envying as much as in thee lyes to the pure love of God and Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ and so art out of the counsel of God which is known in the light to all them who are in the life which life condemns the world and all that which is of the world is with thee in the shadow of death there is the transgressor therefore own condemnation on the disobedient in whom the power of darkness rules and guides into error and deceit rebellion and diso bedience against the light of Christ and this by the Spirit of the living God is thy spirit words and ways seen and judged who are out of the light and by the light is condemned even in thy Conscience wherein this warning shall stand to be read of thee in secret A Warning to all scattered People that call themselves Protestants and Christians yet are out of the Faith and life of Christ in vain Traditions and dead Forms wherein the blind Guids are leading them into the Pit HEar all ye scattered People who are the inhabitants of Ollveston Elburton and Alveston and elsewhere who call your selves Christians because you think you have been Baptized into the Church of Christ by some that sprinkled your faces with water and cross you on the foreheads and tell you it was in the name of the Father Son and Holy Ghost which thing they say is Baptism and a seal of the Covenant and then after you must learn the English Creed and such like things and so they tell you That you are of the Protestant Religion and the Scripture they take to talk on and one day in seven you must come into the Steeple-house which they call the House of God or Church wherein you must hear and believe without contradiction that which they in the Week have gathered out of old Books which they find written in Hebrew Greek and Latin which they call the Original and what serves their turn out of English Books and Scriptures they put to it to make up about an hours discourse with their own imaginations inventions which they call the Word of God for which you must pay a large some of Money or Tythes or else much of their hours Discourse will be in railing against you though by them you have not been profited at all so they Lord over you and you call them Master and thus you spend your time and old age comes on and death draws nigh and you remain as void of true Faith and as ignorant of Christ and your own salvation as you were when you were first crost on the fore-heads and here thousands die and perish in their sins Therefore now all you who are yet alive in your sins walking in the vanity of your minds in the uncircumcision of the flesh and talk of God and Christ in your vain imaginations yet know no other Call to appear before the Lord than the voice of a B●ll which men hath hanged up in the head of your Idols house which sound reacheth but to the earthly image that deny the Call of Christ and doth not wait for revelation whereas none knows the Father but the Son and him to whom the Son reveals him but you all stand without the revelation and knowledge of the true God in the house of imagery the outward court the first tabernacle which is not measured nor purified but you are the Gentils that stands thereon not within the pure measure but are without the holy place worshiping every one his image in the abomination that maketh desolate and so you know not the way into the holy place but are without the pure life allienated in your minds by reason of wicked works Therefore be warned all you proud and wanton ones you foolish jesters vain talkers all you covetous and worldly minded ones whose hearts are departed from the Lord you are but as the stubble you scoffing scorning ones read your figure in the dust all you carnal minded the best of you is but as a bryar the most righteous is sharper than a thorney hedge you grow on the cursed ground which brings forth bryars and thorns whose end is to be burned the Light of Israel is as a flame and the Holy One as a fire which shall devour the bryars and thorns in one * day so verily all you people every one unless you receive Christ the true light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world you are no Christians Christ is not your head and you are not his members and you also shall die and perish in your sins A Warning to you Also a Declaration of the Light of Christ now appearing and working in every man even in the Conscience by which all men are left without excuse THere is no other name given under heaven whereby you may be saved but by Jesus Christ who is the light of the world a light shining in darkness but the darkness comprehends it not and this is the condemnation of the world that light is come into the world and men love darkness rather than light rather than Christ who is set for a light to the Gentils and for salvation to the ends of the earth for God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten Son into the world that the world through him might be saved he that believeth in him is not condemned but he that believeth not is condemned already and the wrath of God abideth on him tribulation and wrath on every soul of man that doth evil he that doth evil hateth the light the true light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world is hated by the world the pearl of great price which is hid in the field the field is the World the World is set in mans heart there is the World of Faith nigh even in the heart this is the sure word of Prophesie unto which you would do well to take heed unto as unto a light shining in a dark place even in the heart of man which is in darkness turned away from God who is light and therefore cannot comprehend the light the light not shining out of darkness but in darkness under the earth under the world the day star not risen because the light is not loved the fear of the Lord is not known and none knows the Son of tighteousness risen in the heart but those that fear the Lord and all you that know not the fear of the Lord you are not come to the beginning of wisdom and you who are out
