thee to that lasting rest which he prepar'd for thee Before he formed East or West in his heavenly decree Therefore I warn thee to return unto the Lord that he May all his promises confirm that happy thou mayst be Which he will make thee in the end if thou his law regard And learn thy way for to amend by cleaving to his word This is written from a true lover of thy soul whose name is AMBROSE RIGGE The difference between the true Gospel and the false truly stated and clearly demonstrated that all people may see and read which Gospel they have received and obeyed this many years whether the true Gospel or the false THe true and everlasting Gospel of Iesus Christ the Son of God is glad tidings of good things which is remission of sins and reconciliation to God by Iesus Christ Luke 1. 19. Luke 8. 1. which was preached to give the knowledge of falvation unto all people by the remission of sins Luke 1. 77. So here it manifestly appears that this Gospell was preached to give the knowledge of salvation to all people which knowledge was onely received by the remission of sins The false Gospel of Antichrist the man of sin is sad tidings of bad things wherein there is no remission of sins but a continual slavery unto sin and Satan all mans dayes according as it is and hath been taught by the teachers of this generation which is as contrary to the true Gospel as light is to darkness The true Gospel its message is to turn people from darkness to the light and from the power of Satan unto God that they might receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance amongst them that are sanctified by faith in the Son Acts 26. 18. The message of the false Gospel is that people can never come from under the power of Satan but must have a body of sin as long as they live which is sad tidings and not glad tidings for he that hath been under a tyrants power from his mothers womb for another to pretend freedom to him and take his money as though he would bring him to Christ who would free him and yet in the end tell him he must remain under the power of this tyrant all his dayes this is sad tidings to him who hath both spent his money and is neither redeemed nor now hath any hopes ever to be while he lives and such is the false Gospel at this day The message of the true Gospel is a proclamation of liberty and freedom to all Captives who hath been imprisoned in sin and transgression wherein the blood of Christ is freely held forth for the remission of sins Mat. 26. 28. The message of the false Gospel is continual captivity in sin and never liberty nor freedom from it as we have seen by many years sad experience The true Captain of salvation saith Follow me and thou shalt finde rest to thy soul Mat. 11. 29. The false Leader saith Thou shalt never overcome but be in a continual warfare and shall never come to peace nor rest here which is sad news indeed The Messengers of the true Gospel saith They were circumcised with the Circumcision made without hands in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the Circumcision of Christ Col. 2. 11. The Messengers of the false Gospel saith This can never be done but men must have a body of sin as long as they live which is far different from the other The Messengers of the true Gospel saith Christ shall save his people from their sins The Messengers of the false Gospel saith Christ shall save from the punishment due to sin but not from committing sin which doctrine overthrows the Iustice of God who giveth to every one according to their deeds Here followeth a few Queries put to Leonard Letchford either to be answered by plain Scripture according as I have answered his before cited or else to acknowledge that I have struck the Devil dumb in his minister at Hurst at last though I have long suffered him to boast himself as though he were a Minister of Christ even till his fruits are grown so foul and odious that every one is ready to bring in their verdict to the contrary Query 1.
