and his Elect and call him a Liar to his Face both in his Person and in his Word and in his Prophet and in his People MOREOVER because they see no Power in themselves neithe● to live nor to slie presumptuously they take upon them to judg● the God of all Power over Life and Death by their no Power at all AGAIN if that God that said I have Power to lay down my Life and Power to take it again did not die and was buried both Soul and Body in the Grave and after the decreed Time of three Days and three Nights by a quickning Spirit revive a new and glorious Life again in Despite of Death's Power then Angelical Reprobate the following Scriptures were Words of Truth spoken from the Spiritual Mouth of the everlasting God that sent me to declare this Secret who did die but cannot possibly lie for lying is of a Mortal Man like unto thy self In the Words of Isa 55. and the last Verse Because he poured out his Soul unto Death In Psal 16. ver 11. For thou wilt not leave my Soul in Hell neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see Corruption In Acts ii 27 31. Because thou wilt not leave my Soul in the Grave neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see Corruption he knowing that he before spoke of the Resurrection of Christ that his Soul should not be left in the Grave neither should his Flesh see Corruption Rom. xiv 9 For Christ therefore died and rose again and revived that he might be Lord both of the Dead and Quick In Rev. i. 17 18. Saying unto me Fear not I am the first and the last I am he that liveth and was dead and behold I am alive for evermore Amen and have the Keys of Hell and Death And Rev. ii 8. These Things saith the first and the last which was dead and is alive IF this Truth be not sufficiently cleared by the Letter of the Scriptures concerning Christ's Soul and Body being both dead and buried in the Grave and living again by his own Power I would it were This I am certain of that they that deny this Truth are not only naturally blind but wilfully also do shut their Eyes and stop their Fars and call the Scriptures Lies because of the Cross of Christ without which there is no Crown of Glory AGAIN if the everlasting God for a Moment could not have died and left himself void of all Light or Life Spiritual or Natural as the Condition of all Mankind is which are dead asleep in the Dust of the Earth then he could not possibly have experimentally known the State of the Dead whether Elect or Reprobate Moreover neither could he possibly in his Creatureship Condition be capable of entring into the Immortal Glory of his Creator-ship again but by his entring into Death that he might live again and upon his glorious Head instead of a Crown of Throns wear a double Crown of eternal Glory AGAIN that he might also show unto his Elect Men and Angels his Almighty Power and unsearchable Wisdom by quickning an Immortal transcendent glorious Life out of Death it self THUS the Lord of Life and Death by suffering all Conditions in his innocent Soul and Body did purchase at a dear Rate from himself a Prerogative Power of being Lord and King over all Conditions whatsoever and from hence he experimentally knows what Immortal Crowns of Glory are most suitable for all suffering Conditions his blessed ones undergo And by Virtue of his unspeakable Sufferings at the Hands of Jewish Canaanitish Devils he knoweth what Measure of eternal Death in utter Darkness is most meet for the Souls and Bodies of all the Sons and Daughters proceeding from the Bowels of cursed bloody Cain that Reprobate Angelical Old wise Serpent Devil and Father of all the Damned which thro' the Decree of God was cast out of Heaven into this World that he might bring forth his Generation of proud envious scoffing persecuting wise Serpent Devils not only to war against the Lord of Life and the Truth of Holy Scriptures but also against his Holy Spirit of Divine Faith or Truth in all the Elect lost Sons and Daughters proceeding from the Loins of Adam so that their Eternal perishing by the secret Decree of God being hid from them by his Wisdom they might justly be damned in themselves from the everlasting Remembrance not only of all their Actions of vain-glorious Hypocrisy but unmerciful Cruelties THIS will be that gnawing Worm of Conscience which never dieth and that fiery Curse of the Law of the Wrath of God in Mens Souls that never goeth out AND so much concerning that everlasting Word of Truth that was spoken by the glorious Mouth of the everlasting God that Man Christ Jesus upon the Throne of all Immortal Crowns of Glory and Majesty far above all Heavens Angels and Men. Yours which love the Lord Jesus more than this perishing World JOHN REEVE An Occasional Discourse from the First and Second Verse of the Second Chapter of the Divine Looking-Glass concerning the Prophet Reeve that Darkness Death and Hell lay secretly hid in the Spiritual Earth eternally with God By the Prophet Muggleton Septem 28. Anno Dom. 1668. THE Heaven of Glory that is now God's Throne with the Substance of Earth and Water was eternally uncreated in the Presence of God who was alone by himself before any created Being appear'd in his Sight Then his glorious Wisdom mov'd him by a Word speaking to that Spiritual Earth above this Global World to create an innumerable Company of glorious Spiritual Angels whose Form and Image was the same as God's only differing in their Natures the Angels Nature being pure Reason and God's Nature Divine Faith And there was no impure Thing in his Sight only he created one Angel more glorious than the rest After this the glorious Wisdom of God moved him to create this Mortal Visible World of Earth and Water which were Eternal Substances but dark dead and senseless And of this visible Mortal Earth the Glorious Wise God created Adam and Eve in his own Image and breathed into them the Breath of Life That Breath of the ever-living God made their Souls Spiritual and Immortal and would have so continu'd But now behold what the Wisdom of God mov'd him to He first tries what his Creature that Holy Angel would do or what would become of him if he did withdraw his Revelation from him and leave him to himself Not that God had eternally decreed this but as his glorious Wisdom moved him to this or that For if God knew what was past present and to come there was an End of his Wisdom and so would not be infinite but this makes him infinite that his Wisdom is eternally increasing Now when God did withhold his Revelation from this glorious Angel his pure Reason in Creation became impure and aspir'd to be above the Creator which when God saw and knew those vilifying Thoughts that continually sprang in him he cast him down from Heaven like Lightning From that very Moment Good and Evil was visible in this Creation which was the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil which stood before Adam and Eve Here Sin enter'd into the World Therefore the glorious God having found by the Trial of his first Creature how it became with him his Wisdom saw it good to leave Man of his own Nature to himself Only he first gave Man a Law that if he hearkened to the Subtilty of that Reprobate fallen Spiritual glorious Angel by eating or believing in him he should die the Death that is that immortal Soul he were created in while he stood in Obedience to God could not fall But he should by Disobedience become Mortal Now the Subtilty of this glorious Angel was too powerful for Eve Adam was not in the least concern'd in Eve's Temptation but being overcome by the Serpent Angel he having Power presently enters her Womb For the Nature of Spiritual Bodies can transmute it self into as small a Place as it pleaseth And this Angel pollutes her makes her defil'd fills her pure innocent Soul with Lustful Thoughts and Desires towards her Husband There this Immortal Reprobate Angel lays down his Immortality in becoming Seed and had or could Eve have liv'd without the Embraces of her Husband she would in her appointed Time brought forth Cain the Offspring and only begotten Son of that Reprobate Angel the Father of all the Devils in the World But she could not forbear but tempt poor innocent Adam who is overcome by hearkening to Eve's Words and so becomes polluted too then at that very Time Death enter'd into the World and not before Now as concerning Hell God comes and says I will put Enmity between the two Seeds the Seed of the Woman and the Seed of the Serpent There was in Cain Part of the Woman's Seed which was God's Nature as well as the Serpent's Likewise in Abel there was two Seeds But here lies the Difference in Cain the Seed of his Father the Reprobate Angel was predominate and Lord over that Spark of the Seed of the Woman whereas in Abel whom Adam begot tho' both Seeds were in him yet the Seed of Faith being God's Divine Nature was predominate and did so captivate the Seed of Reason in him that his Sacrifice was acceptable before God when Cain's was refus'd which made him slay his Brother Abel Now mark the Seed of Reason which is the Seed of the Serpent or the Reprobate Angel or the Devil should bruise the Heel of the Seed of the Woman or the Seed of Faith But the Seed of the Woman shall break the Serpent's Head Now when the glorious God did fulfil his Promise and saw it most fit to transmute his glorious Immortality into a Mortal Human Condition of Flesh Blood and Bone by entring into the Virgin 's Womb who in Time shedding his most precious Blood hath overcome Sin Death and Hell which Hell as yet hath no Being Altho' the Heaven of Glory which will be the Reward of the Elect Seed be in Being and ever was Yet the Place of Torment will appear but in Time when God will call all to Judgment BY LODOWICK MUGGLETON FINIS
