puts a difference between the man and the woman and forbids the woman to speak in the Church he that can receive it let him I told thee Pallard that Paul also circumcised after he were a Minister of the Gospel as well as baptized and he had as much ground for the one as the other but no command for neither and Christ was circumcised outwardly as well as baptized outwardly and he ministred the circumcision also and were a Minister of the same as in Rom. 15.8 And I asked thee how thou followed Christ in that to fulfill that Ministration and what account thou couldest give of it in the inward man as it is written Col. 2.11 12. c. Because Christ ministred that and they did witnesse that Ministration through the Spirit in him and so they were made compleat in the substance and life of all truth through the Crosse And because it is written that death reigned from Adam untill Moses even over all that had not sinned after the similitude of Adams transgression and the Law and the Prophets were till John John succeeded them and he came burning and shining amongst those that were born of woman was not a greater than John yet he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he Then Pallard water baptizer I asked thee how thou couldst witnesse to those ministrations in the inward man for the seed is but one and how thou couldest witnesse a passing from death unto life as they did that spoke forth the Scriptures for they that had passed from death unto life said that he that was born of God did not commit sin and they also said that he that committed sin were of the devill and thereby the two seeds was known and the children of God was made manifest and the children of the devill by the operation of each seed ruling in them and working forth through them and they that had passed from death unto life knew who was of God and who was not and so doth the same seed now and they knew who did abide in darknesse and death and so do they now who are in the Light life and power of the Truth and they know that the Son of God is made manifest in them and hath taken away their sins as they knew then that witnessed the same through the Crosse who said that they dwelt in him and he dwelt in them but they did not know it by the dead Letter but by the quickening Spirit which is life and was given them 1 John 3. Chapter And they knew who were passed from death unto life and that the Son of God was come and had given them an understanding that they thereby might know him that was true and they knew it not by the Letter but by the Spirit and they had the true knowledge of it in the eternall Truth who affirmatively said we are in him that is true even in his Son Jesus Christ this is the true God and eternall life and not the Letter but the Letter declareth of it 1 John 5.20 Then Pallard I asked thee how it was with thee in deaths Dominion because it is written of deaths reigning from Adam untill Moses over all who have not sinned after the similitude of Adams transgression and what that death was and reigned over in thee how thou came from under it to know the Law which is perfect and doth endure for ever according to that in the conscience and is to be fulfilled in all that walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit and how thou came into the prophecies in the inwards because it is written the Law and the Prophets are till John and the seed is but one not seeds but seed and the promises are to the seed fulfilled through death in the Ministery by the Spirit in the crosse which cuts down and raiseth up and how thou came to know Johns Ministry set up within because he came and doth come burning and shining and there is a willingnesse to rejoice in his Light for a season and how it was with thee in that Ministration to know the ax laid to the root of the tree and the tree to be cut down and what that fallow ground in thee was which must be ript up and I also asked thee what self was with the fruits and the ground of it which the Crosse is Lo I told thee the creation was a figure and out of the ground sprung up grosse herbs weeds briers and thornes c.
