things common but for my Saints which have right to the tree of life and so enter in through the gates into the citty shal not be twain but shal be all one both of one heart and one minde for I the Lord of host wil preach to them and they shal hear me preach and shal learn knowof me even so much that they shal see and know that they possess all things and enjoy all things and so have all things at command for this tree of life is my self which if a man eats of he shall live for ever and also this tree of life is in the City which City may be taken two waies either mystical or literal mystically the Saints makes one City literally it is the Jerusalem where my sons and daughters shal be gathered together the gates of this City is my power which all must be indued with before they can enter into it for the tree of life is my self which will be there for ever keeping of them my sons and daughters alwaies in a continual supply so that they shal have no want of anything but the riches of the Gentils shal be brought into this City even into this new Ierusalem whose children shal be all righteous and nothing but righteousness shal dwel there nothing but the pure chosen vessels of my love shal be there even with singing dancing shal they come thither and leaping for joy for the Lord hath founded Sion and the poor of the people shal trust in it O Sion shout shout and sing for joy for all people shall tremble and quake for fear of thee even for fear of thy most excellent King I the mighty Iehovah that dwels in thee and I wil make thee to be famous and thee to be desired far among all people this word shout shewes abundance of joy joy unspeakable in thee shout and be glad nothing but rejoyce and sing let sorrow and sighing and whatsoever hath formerly troubled thee be now turned into joy and gladness I tel thee that thou shalt be made the praise of the whole earth even thou O Sion that hath bin scattered and driven into all nations here and there one but now I have founded Sion even thee O Sion wherein I do delight to dwel and will bring thee into my own place even into a Canaan of rest from all thy hateful enemies so that thou shalt no longer be here and thereon no but I wil bring you all together both Iews and Gentiles and I wil make you to be both one rejoycing in you and wil be married to you and you shal be my spouse and my wife who shal alwaies be feeding on the tree of life and so I wil make you live for ever for all my joy and delight shal be in you and I wil be your tower and rock and wals and salvation for you and in that day you shal say we have a strong City salvation will God appoint for wals and bullwarks even a free universal liberty from all sorts of enemies both within and without and nothing but joy and love all being knit together in love rejoycing in love heaving so strong a City and all manner of precious things being there even such a City and place for delight that there shal be none like it in the world for nothing but joy wil I give you and wil make you for to rejoyce in me your King of glory and you shal be as so many Kings and Princes that shal reigne here on earth every one of you no less then a King that shal have all nations in subjection to you by my mighty power which I wil manifest in you I wil make you to break the nations in peices like potters vessels even into shivers shalt thou dash all thine enemies whether they be Turk or Pope or any other Countries for all shal become as weak as water I in the midst of you wil shew my self to be strong and powerful even so strong that I wil make all nations to be silent and sit stil and let you alone and instead of making wars against you they shall beat their swords and spears and their weapons of war into pruning hooks and the nations shall not learn war any more but I wil make them say come let us go up to Sion and they will teach us their waies O what a bundance of glory wil I give unto thee O Sion that nations far and near shal come up to thee to be taught of thee and indeed they shall have great need for I wil empty all other teachings of men and all shal be barren so that there shal be no perfect rest but to those that come to Sion where I the Lord of host wil be the a lone teacher and wil make them all to know me even from the least to the greatest not only know me and cal me God because of my power being seen in that I have made the heavens and the earth for this knowledge of me all men have yet they are ignorant of what I am which my people that dwel in Sion shal know they shal see me in my glory and know me what and where I be they shal see me every where and know that I am in every thing and that the whole world is but a garment to cover me from the visible sight of men and thus wil I appear in my people gathering them together where I wil manifest my self unto them and raise them from the dead even all Israel from this death of sin and corcuption and wil make them to be partakers of the second resurrection on which the first death shall have no power and so all Israel even the whole house of Israel shal be gathered together in righteousness and in truth and they shal glory and rejoyce in me even in mount Sion yea even the place where my son Jesus was transfigured and changed so that his raiment became white and glistering and the two Apostles seeing of him in this condition said it is good to be here for the glory that was seen there which was but a resemblance of my gathering my people to Sion and so making them to be as one and when I had so gathered them together in the last daies there to make my glory shine in a more lustrious and glorious manner then ever I did when my son Jesus was on the earth for his being transfigured and shining so bright shews forth abundance of light and glory that shal be manifested to you now in these last daies for as soon as he was in garments that were white and glistering it shewes that I wil appear to be a light and a more excellent light to you then yet I have bin for the glory was so great
my ovvn povver bring my vvife vvhich are the Jevvs and Gentils vvhom I have chosen into Judea and so wil set them above all hils even upon the proud hil and they shal rule over the proud hil-flesh and fleshlyness even over al the nations and all the greatness of the earth shal be as nothing in my sight in comparison of them even my chosen ones whom I have purposed for to bring out of the countries where now they be under their enemies and so wil free them from their oppressors and so they shal be by my mighty power brought into a Canaan of rest again I the eternal God even the infinite Iehovah by whom all things subsist and have a being and I only am the life of all things therefore be ye not now as you was before in bondage to weak and beggerly elements and so to be led about by the tradition and rudiments of this world which shal perish and come to nothing but arise and shine for thy light is come and the glory of I the Lord of host is risen upon thee arise from all those foolish things even from all things that you have lived in below me arise I say from out of the dust of the earth and from that darkness which ye have formerly lain in arise I say from all death and sin and from every thing that hath kept thee at a distance from me and arise from all and every one of thy enemies whom I have stricken with fear and with terror and whom I have made to be afraid arise I say even ye O Jewes who are by nature the true olive branches and once were broken off because of unbeliefe that the Gentiles might be grafted in arise I say from that unbeliefe to believe on me yea I say thou shalt be grafted in again notwithstanding the unbelief and hardness of heart and though thou hast bin as a woman grieved in spirit and forsaken having lost thy first husband yet thou shalt now be found again and instead of mourning and garments of sackcloth I wil cloath thee with joy and gladness of heart and thou shalt mourne no more for the daies of the mourning shall be at an end and instead of garments of sackcloth I wil adorne thee with ornaments and with jewels even the best and chiefest among all the rich treasures that can be found thou shalt be adorned with for I do bid thee arise from all former troubles and sorrows whatsoever thou hast bin subject unto even from all manner of slavery as being servants and subject to the pleasures of Kings and other great men yea from the Pope and Turke arise saith the Lord of host for thy redeemer cometh that shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob even all those things that you in my absent have busied your selves about shal now be destroyed and all yea whatsoever it is must now by my bright appearing be brought to nothing and confounded that I the Lord of host may be all things therefore arise from death yea every thing that you have bin acted in arise from them for the time of the resurrection is now come that you shal be raised from a condition of sorrow and trouble and slavery and death it self into a condition of joy and gladness of heart and of life it self whereas formerly you have bin at the command of men and so they have had their wils of you it shal no longer be so with you now in this day of the resurrection but on the contrary you shal instead of being their servants and at their commands becom lords over them and they shal withall their treasures come bowing and bending unto you such is the alteration that I wil now make here on earth to redeem you out of the hands of your cruel enemies and to bring you into my promised land the place where formerly I did make out my glory and my name to your Fathers of old which was the people whom I did chuse out of all nations and so did bring them into that Land where I did make my power and my name known which was but a type of that glory which I wil now make known unto you to my chosen servants the Gentils whom I wil bring with you into this place where I the Lord of host doth intend to hold forth my glory in a more powerful manner then ever I have done as yet and in a far more glorious manifestation of my self then ever I have done as yet even in so clear a discovery of my self to you whom I wil bring up into the place of my glory and the place where I wil make my self known and as formerly all were subject to my servant David who was King of the Jewes even so shal all people be subject to you whom I have appointed to bring into Judea for this is your resurrection I wil now raise you from all sorrow and trouble and so wil set you free from all your enemies and wil make you the praise of the whole earth and al the nations shal see and know that I have chosen Judea to be the place of my rest where I wil make my stocks to ly down at noon dayes even in the heat of the misery of the nation wil I make the Jewes and the Gentils whom I wil bring up by my mighty power shal ly down and be at rest and so be in quietness and so wil cause the work of righteousness to increase and it shal take effect and the fwork of rightousness shal be quietness and assurance for ever for or my people even for you O lewes and Gentils whom I wil bring up into Judea and my people shal dwel in peaceable and quiet habitations even in such peace and quietness after this first resurrection that al your enemies shal be destroyed from you and shal not be suffered to come to you or against you by no meanes for there shal not be a Canaanite in my house even in this city Jerusalem or in the limits of your abode but I the Lord of host wil destroy them al that you may be at rest and so enjoy me without any let or hinderance at al for wil I graft thee into the vine again and so wil raise thee up to thy former condition even to be my peculiar and choice ones to whom I wil make out my self in a glorious dispensation and manifestation of my love and favour once again so that I wil make all thy sorrovvs to be forgotten by reason of so glorious an enjoyment of me vvho am the Alpha and Omega and hath novv raised you up from from the dead and from a condition of darkness into light Arise and not only arise but shine make it appear by your condition that you are not only risen from the dead but you have also light come into you therefore shine and be not so dark as you have bin when you were dead and in your enemies hands no but
be on the contrary shine hold forth the glory of me your creator and redeemer who have ransomed you from the hands of them that were stronger then you shine and let my glory be seen upon you for they shal be afraid of you that hate you shine ye therefore and be like so many stars that shines in the Firmament and glister like so many as the only people that are redeemed from death to light for thy light is come I am your life and light and by being absent from you your condition was a condition of death and darkness and you were compassed about with abundance of sorrow by being scattered abroad in the world but I who am your life and light even I the mighty God of Jacob am now risen to bring you into your own country even together ö daughter of Sion shout and rejoyce and cry aloud Sing and make merry and be glad in your King who am now Risen with mighty power for to bring you into your own land therefore rejoyce and sing for thy light is come Sion that vvas scattered abroad but now shal be gathered into your own country even into Judea for the glory of the Lord is risen upon you even my glory is risen upon thee for to bring thee out of a strange country and as Pilgrims and sojourners into your country there for to make my glory and light shine and rest upon thee for the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee even upon thee ö captive daughter of Sion for to make you see and know that I have purposed to bring you into your own country once again and there to make thee the praise of the whole earth and the earth to see and know my power by which I do things saith I the Lord of host who hath caused my glory for to arise upon thee for you have now a more surer word of prophesie to which you do well to take heed as to a light that shineth in a darke place until the day dawn and the day star arise in your hearts this was given to the church in that age who was to observe the word of the Apostles then and at that time they being but babes and children so had a rule for to walk by which rule the Apostle bids them take heed unto that they walke by it for how long even saith the same Apostle until the day break until there be some further appearance of light a more glorious dispensation then now is and the day star in your harts that is until you do see know God dwelling in you and so do see know Christ who is the bright and morning star to be one with the Father Son holy Ghost but one God dwelling in you who is your life and strength and so to see this God in love to be your All and in all and the very life of all things til then you being weake have had need of a writen rule to walke by but now you have no longer need of any thing to walk by no not the Scripture to walk by for I even your King and Lord wil be unto you Scripture and Law and rule and ways and formes of worships yea I wil be all arise and shine for thy light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee even my glory shall now shine upon thee for to make thee the praise of the whole earth and the joy of all the nations arise and shine for behold darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people arise shine your condition wil and shal be happy saith I the Lord of host who hath made my glory to shine upon you even upon you ö Sion whom I wil gather into Judea from amongst other people but I wil tel you one thing even you whom I do gather up into Judea for behold this darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people even when you shal see light and walk in light and have light to be your guide and have my glory shining upon you even then shal others the earth be covered with darkness for there shal be no clear light and sun shining upon the earth even upon those that come not up to worship me the Lord of host in Jerusalem but instead of light there shal be darkness and instead of breaking forth of light there shal be a mist and a cloud that shal overspread it self for a while so that they that go not up to Jerusalem shal not have that clear light neither shal they see and know that glory which I wil and shal make out to you ö Sion for you ö Sion shal eat and drink and be ful and have the bread of life and water of life when they that come not up shal be in want and shal be hungry when Sion shal be ful for I wil take away all their food even their formes and wayes of worship and wil utterly destroy them and bring them to nothing for these things as forms of worship have they had some comfort in using them but I wil leave these dispensations wherein I have formerly appeared and wil make darkness cover the earth in this sence for I wil deprive them of all their formes and Church governments for I wil forsake them and they shal receive no benefit by them even darkness shal cover them that they shal not see light in them even gross darkness even such a darkness wil and shal light upon poor creatures that walke by forms and so think to be carried to heaven upon the sholders of their Priests but darkness yea such darkness that both Priest and people shal be amased for they shal be driven out of their common-road and so shal be forced to seek a new way even this darkness shal light upon those that are malicious and ful of envy and so would of a sudden destroy their fellow creatures darkness wil and shal overcome such for though they preach and pray yet al wil not save them but that they must be destroyed and brought to nothing for saith the Lord of host darkness shall cover the earth there wil be no clear sight of God and no clear sight of my way for they shal not come to my knowledge and so to the enjoyment of me here or in any place but where Sion shal be gathered together even my people whom I have raised from the dead and so wil bring them up to Sion at Ierusalem the City where formerly I dwelt which is in Judea and there I wil make them shine and be the glory of the whole earth and after this first resurrection that they shal have for to be raised from a condition of death and slavery into a condition of joy and life where the Second death shal have no power over them for this is the resurrection wherein I wil set you free from all death and you shal dy no more for I wil be your life and you
of captivity and bondage into the place of rest or to that place which I wil make to be the resting place for thy light shal increase and grow bigger and bigger when all other lights shal be put out for I am the light even I the Lord of host who wil make you to shine most illubriously and gloriously even so bright that the Gentiles even my chosen ones whom I have made much of my glory out unto they shal see and know that your light doth not shine there because it is my pleasure for to make my light shine upon you even upon the Jewes who through unbelief were broken off and Gentiles were grafted in but now I wil appear unto them and wil give them hearts to believe on my name and so wil make them the desires of all nations even all nations shal long and desire for to come to thy light because my glory shal be seen upon thee when I have forsaken all other administrations besides this of mine which I wil make more illustriously to shine even to draw up my sons and daughters into spiritual communion with my self and so they shal worship me in spirit and in truth and Kings shal come in even great men of the Gentiles shal be with you for Kings shal come to the brightness of thy rising even when thou hast risen from that death which thou art for the present subject to so that thy brightness shal appear in a more extraordinary manner then now it doth even then shal kings be brought to see thy rising and to behold thy glory by my bright appearing and manifesting my glory unto you then shal thy glory far surpass all the glory and beauty of the world besides and none shal be like to thee for beauty and comliness for I wil make thee to shine so gloriously that thou shalt dazle the eyes of all the earth and all the earth shal stand and be amazed at thee for the kings that shal come to thee shal be such whom I have or shal crown with my love and favour and so my love shal cause them to come to the brightness of thy rising even thine O Iewes who are by nature descended from Abraham and so are Hebrewes and are and shal be made the praise and glory of all nations for these Kings shal see no light and comfort besides I the Lord of host and therefore shal they be brought to thy rising and shal see I the Lord of host in a more especial manner appear to you in Ierusalem whom I wil cause to be inhabited and made the praise of the whole earth in such glory as they shal not be able to tarry behinde but shal come to the brightness of thy rising even when the nations of the earth shal see that I the Lord of host hath raised thee up from that poor estate and condition that thou art now in even from death and slavery and so from darkness into a most glorious condition â—nd so to make thee shine most bright and clear O Sion and daughter of Ierusalem that was a poor and peeled remnant scattered abroad in al the world evenwhen I thy God shal raise thee up from this condition make my glory to bee seen upon thee then shalt thou be enquired after even by kings and great men who shal stand amazed at thy glory and honour where with I wil honour thee in this thy day from the resurrection from the dead which I wil raise thee nito a condition of life and peace which shal be the first resurrection from the dead and so no more darkness or any longer shal Satan or death have power over thee but thou being raised from the dead shal now live and raigne with me a thousand years which thousand years shal be for ever even to eternity and Satan shal never have any power over thee O Sion the praise of the whole earth but thou shal sing and rejoyce and shal go with singing and rejoycing when others shal be thrown into hel even to be deprived of my love and favour which I wil shew unto thee O daughter of Sion whoâ— I wil gather into the Land of Judea and without shal be those that shal apprehend me to be angry with them and so their own consciences witnessing against them and accusing of them wil condemn them for their unbeliefe and hardness of heart and so their hel shal be by being pricked in their own consciences that they have offended me and so shal suffer by the reason they condemn themselves and so shal be in hel because they shal not have any joy or comfort from me to them that I am a God of love to them and even this portion shal those drinke of that stiles themselves to be ministers and are sent to preach by me the Lord of host and they know not me neither can they by all their humane wisdome or Phylosophie attaine to the mistery which I wil make out unto them whom I shal be pleased for to do even for to make out my power and name and so to cause them to see my glory which I wil hide from the learned ones of the world and wil make choice of the unlearned and so wil make them to run when I send them to do my message even as I stirred up poor herds-men and trades-men before the Gospel in the old times and in the primitive times when I refused the Priests pharisees and leaders of the people in those daies and so those that pretend to be the heads and leaders of the people as Priests and Lawyers even they shal drink deeper then any of my sore displeasure because their consciences wil accuse them and so condemn them for not doing that which they know they should do and so they shal with the rest be thrown into the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone which is not meant material fire or brimstone but is meant the apprehensions which the ungodly shal have of me who am a burning consuming fire not aprehending I their God to be a God of love and peace which thou daughter of Sion whom I wil bring with joy into Ierusalem wil cause it to be built up in glory so wil make you for to inhabite there shal do by my rising upon you causing of you to shine so to be glorious in all the earth Lift up thine eies round about and see all they gather themselves together they come to thee thy sons shal come from far and thy daughters shal be nursed at thy sides Oye my Sons and daughters whom I wil bring up into Judea even you that are by nature Jewes and so are natural Iewes lift up your eies behold looke and behold and see all they gather themselves together even the Gentiles gather themselves together for to come up to thee O Sion whom I have gathered in Judea and have made the praise of the earth even for the glory wherewith I wil glorifie
