therefore as he was a Murtheter and lyer at the beginning so he is still and infecteth or poysoneth Men. 62. Being he knoweth that they are fallen to the outward Dominion of the Starres into his Magick Longing therefore he is a Continual poysoner of the Complexion and where he smelleth but a Crum that serveth his turn that he alwaies setteth before Man and if a Man Imagineth into it he will suddenly infect him 63. Therefore it is said Watch pray be sober lead a Temperare life for the Devil your Adversary goeth about as a roaring Lyon and seeketh whom he may devour 64. Seek not so after Convetousness riches Money Goods Might and honour for we are in Christ not of this world 65. For therefore Christ went to the Father viz into the Divine substance that we should with our hearts Minds thoughts and wills follow after him and so he will be with us all the dayes to the End of the World but not in the source or quality of this World 66. We should press forth out of the source or quality of this world our from the Earthly Man and give up our wills into his will and Introduce our Imagination and Longing in to him and so we in his virginity which he hath stirred up again in us become impregnated and Conceive the Word which maketh it selfe stirring in him in our virginity shut up in Death and become born in Christ in our selves 67. For as death through Adam pressed upon us all so the word of Life out of or from Christ presseth upon us all 68. For the Moving of the Deity in the becoming Man or Incarnation of Christ hath continued moveable and standeth open to all M●n the failing is onely in the Entering in that Man suffereth the Devil to detein him 69. Christ need not first depart from his Place and Enter into us when we become new born in Him for the divine Substance wherein he became born or generated hath in all places and Cornors the second Principle in it and where a Man may say there is God Present there a Man may say The Becoming Man or Incarnation of Christ is present also for it became opened in Mary and so qualifieth or operateth backward again even into Adam and forward even into the Lift man 70. Now saith Reason Faith alone attaineth it very right In the right Faith the Impregnation proceedeth 71. For Faith is Spirit and desireth Substance and that substance is nevertheless in all Men and that which is wanting is that it apprehend the Spirit of Faith 72. And if it be come apprehended then the fair Lilly blossometh out of it not onely a Spirit but the Virgin-like Image becometh generated or born out of Death into Life 73. The Rod of Aaron which is dry sprouteth forth out of the dry death and taketh its body out of Death the fair New virgin-like life out of the halfe dead virginity 74. And this the dry Rod of Aaron signified as also Old Zachary also Abraham with his old Sarah who according to the outward world were all as it were dead and no more fruitful 75. But the Promise in the New Regeneration must do it the Life must sprout out of Death 76. The Old Adam which became Earthly must not be Lord Nor Esau the first born to whom formerly the Inheritance had belonged if Adam had continued standing But the second Adam Christ who sprouted forth through death out of the first must remain Lord. 77. Not the Man or the Woman shall possess the Kingdom of God but the Virgin which becometh generated or born out of the Mans and Womans Death must be Queen of Heaven 78. One onely Generation or sex not two one onely Tree not Many Christ was the stock being he was the root of the New Body which sprouteth out of Death which brought forth the dead virgin again as a fair branch out of Death 79. And we all are his sprouts and stand all upon one stock which is Christ 80. Thus we are Christs Sprouts his branches his children and God is the Father of as all and also of Christ In him we live and Move and are 81. We bear Christs Flesh and bloud in us if we do but come to the New Birth for we become regenerated in Christs Spirit 82. That in Mary became a living Man in the dead humanity without the touching of a Man and that also becometh a Man in our selves in our dead virginity 83. And henceforward that which is wanting is this that we cast the Old Adam viz the Husk into Death that the Earthly lifes quality or source may depart from us and so we go forth from the Devil out of his Country 84. And not alone this for the Old Adam must not be so totally cast away but the Huske onely viz the Shell wherein the Seed or Kernel lyeth 85. Out of the Old Essence must the New Man in Gods blessing sprout forth as the blade out of the Grain or Corn as Christ teacheth us 86. Therefore must the Essence be injected into Gods Anger must be persecuted afflicted plagued scorned and lye under the Cross for the New Man must sprout forth out of God anger fire he must be Tryed in the Fire 87. We were fallen home to the Anger 's Essence but the Love of God set it selfe in the Anger and quenched the Anger with the Love in the blood of the Heavenly substantiality in the Death of Christ 88. Thus the Anger reteined the Husk viz the perished corrupt Man understand the Earthly source or quality and the Love reteined the New Man 89. Therefore can no Man besides shed heavenly Bloud the Earthly Mortal Bloud onely for Christ who was conceived without Man and Woman he onely could do it for in his heavenly substantiality there was no Earthly Blood 90. But yet he did shed his heavenly bloud under or among the Earthly that he might deliver us poor Earthly Men from the fierce wrath 91. For his heavenly bloud must in its bloud shedding mix it selfe together with the Earthly that the Turba in the Earthliness in us which held us captive might be drowned and that the Anger might be quenched with the love of the Heavenly bloud 92. He gave his life for us into Death he went for us into Hell into the source or quality of the Fathers Fire and out of Hell again into God that he might break or destroy Death and drown the Anger and make way for us 93. Therefore now the whole matter depends on this that we follow afte● him he hath indeed broken and destroyed death and quenched the Anger yet if we will be conformable to his Image then we must follow him into his Death take his Cross upon us suffer persecution be scorned despised and slain 24. For the Old Husk belongeth to the Anger of God it must be purged 95. For it is not the Old Man that must live in us but the
