away the curse and removed the cursed ground upon which fallen man stood and hath borne away the sin of the world and was made sin for us that we might be made the righteousnesse of God through in and by him who hath opened the understanding whereby the unsearchable riches of unspeakable love comes to be made manifest even unto us who were going astray and were children of wrath as well as others and aliens and strangers to the covenant of Grace and long were without God and in the World tossed to and fro with every winde of doctrin after the cunning craftinesse of man whereby we were long deceived even by such who still bewitch the minds of the simple out of which wicthcraft I can say the Lord hath delivered and obedience to the truth that makes free is yeilding and love mercy and judgement is come and brought forth and victory is witnessed the Messenger of the everlasting covenant is come even he that we long waited for and we doe not look for any other but he that is the same yesterday to day and for ever who was to come and is come he that readeth let him understand who is without beginning of time or end of daies who is made under the Law and became as a servant being obedient to the death through which the life is risen up into the understanding and hath borne away that which the Law hath power over and hath brought in that by which the Law is fulfilled and so he that is the end of the Law for righteousnesse is felt and received who taketh away the sin and reconcileth the world up unto the Father where the sin is taken away by him who though he was made sin yet knew not sin who appeares now the second time without sin to the saving of that which was lost which is now brought againe and plentious redemption is known for the desire of all Nations is come and the second house is filled with glory the wine-presse is full the Fat 's overflow for the winter is past and the Summer is come and the Lillies appeare in the field where the Pearl was hid the fig-tree puts forth her buds and the vine yeelds her increase the olive doth blossom and the apple-tree in the midst of the wood doth flourish and the good ground yeilds her increase is fruitfull in its season to the good husbandman and there is seed to the sower and bread to be eater the Barns are filled with abundance and the store-houses with plenty and treasure is laid up for many yeares in the heavenly places which are purified with the living sacrifices so that the earthen vessells are fitted to keep the heavenly Manna that shall dure throughout many generations and so against the famine comes upon the earth and all them that feed at Jesabels Table oyl is laid up in safty the finest of the flower in a place where it is sure where it will last and never faile untill the Heathen are scorched with heat and they that have forsaken the Lord are become as a parched Heath and all the gods of the heathen famished and the tongue of the Aegyptian Sea dryed up and all the false prophets overturned who belong to Jezable whose body the dogs must tear though she yet sits as a Queen in opposition to the true prophet Christ the light and untill them who are drunk with the wine of the fornication of the Whore and are the merchants of Mystery Babylon the great the mother of all the painted Harlots be all condemned in one day with an utter overthrow the seate of the Whore removed all them that commit fornication with her made as the valley of Hamon Gog and as the dung upon the face of the Earth and all the brats of the whore dashed against the stones untill then I say shall that in store remain and a hiding place be found for the prophet of the Lord who is also hid near thee in thy own Land though thou art seeking him afar off Wherefore hear O ye kindreds of the earth for as the dwe spread upon the mountaines so doth the streames of my beloved arise overspreading the earth with the comlinesse of his love and filling it with the beauty of his Grace the banner of his love is spreading forth as a curtain and under the shadow of his wings is a certaine hiding-place both from the storme and from the heat and though the Sea rages and all kindreds and tongues swell up in wrath pride and arrogancy yet he is come known witnessed and received who commands both the winds and the Sea who is the former of all things by whom they all were made and at his command all are subdued and the lightenings of his light enlightens the whole world Psal 97. ● the glory of his power is spreading over the nations the excellency of his beauty is reaching to his lambes and because of his comelinesse the virgines love him and to him the daughters of Jerusalem bring their gifts and before him the princes of the people lay down their crowns and because of him the wildernesse doth rejoyce and the desolate is made glad for the fruitfull Land was become a barren wildernesse and the barren wildernesse is turned into a fruitfull field now the plant sprung out of a dry ground and the seed is born of the baren womb and there is a way made in the Wildernesse and streames are given in the desart and the eare of the deaf is opened the lame doth walk and the Leaper is clensed the stammering tongue speaks plainly the Gospell is received and the everlasting power is come even the Immanuel God with us and in us and we confesse Christ come in the flesh and doe not look for an other but do know that this is the great Prophet who is come into the World that is set in the heart Eccles 3. 11. which is in the midst out of which Moses saith the Lord would raise up a Prophet Leut. 18. 15. the which prophet being come which all are to hear he saith I am come a light into the world Ioh 8. 12. Ioh 12 35 36 and 46. The world being set in the heart there is the light of him who saith I am the light and he that is the light is the true Prophet and the true prophet is in the midst who is the light whose day Abrabam saw unto whom the Gospell was preached which Gospell is Gods power whereby Ahraham rejoyced because he came to see the day of him who is the light of the world unto whom all the prophets gave Testimony Isaiah who witnessed the Son borne and the child given Isa 9. 6. by whose stripes he came to be healed he preached the light and said the light was come and the Gentiles should come to his light and Kings to the brightnesse of his rising and he also preached the light to be everlasting Isa 60. ● 2 3
Jer. 18. 12. Fourthly I do not bid any man follow the spirit of the world for we who have believed and obeyed him who said I am the light and follow me for we have not the spirit of the world but the spirit which is of God that we might know the things that are freely given unto us of God 1 Cor. 2. 12. and so that spirit of the world which in words seemeth to professe God but in works deny him having a large cloak of religion but continue in sin and unrighteousnesse making long prayers like the Pharisees having sin lye at their door like Cair talking much of God and Christ and the scriptures and yet have mens persons in admiration because of advantage whose faith is vaine having a forme of Godlinesse but denying that power which saveth from sin and so deny Christ yet intruding into those things he hath not seen being vainely puft up with the fleshly mind that spirit in man which so guideth him I deny for ever And that man may the better understand what that is which he is to love and wait to receive by it after received to be his rule guide and leader and leading him in the narrow good old way of life unity peace and love which all the holy men of God walked in which is a pure way of holinesse then not of hypocricy and sin where the ransomed of the Lord doth walk and where the waifairing men though fools shall not ere therefore I declare that man is to be silent and quiet and wait to receive the spirit of meekenesse patience gentilnesse and long suffering and so come to know somthing borne of the water and of that spirit which truly calls God Father and in which no evill standeth and out of which doth not arise any perversnesse impatience distrust envy nor prejudice towards the person of any man but is pure lamb like harmlesse undefiled and thinketh no evil the which being received obeyed and abode in it guideth unto keepeth man in perfect peace out of the reach of the devouring nature of the wild beast● of the field so that unity peace passing understanding eternall felicity joy in the holy Ghost and love unchangable is injoyed for ever and there is no boasting nor exaiting above or beyond the measure received from God And they that have received this measure and dwell in the spirit of the Lamb which cometh from God who is love it thinketh no evill neither is it easily provoked and this is that which was in Esaiah and so ruled him and in him Ruled over all his natural passion that he could give his back to the smiters and his cheek to them that plucked off the hare and hid not his face from shame and spitting and this is that which comes from the God of love which can bear all things hope all things endure all things And that man may come to receive this spirit and have it alwaies in him to the end of the world ruling him in the feare of God and leading him to the eternall dominion of the God of order and that man may know the true and infalable thing which is most assuredly given into man to lead him to the injoyment of the God of the spirits of all flesh Therefore let all people in what formes or state soever have their minds turned to that in them which lets them see their sins and every evill thought and evill motions of the enemy in the darke minde before it be brought forth into the act of sin by word or action that in them which lets them see this which is evill before it be acted as they love it believe in it and obey it it will keep them from the acting of that which they are tempted to and that in them which letteth them see the evill and that they should not sin is the onely thing which God hath plased in man to keep him from acting the evill and from sin and by it may all mankind receive power to withstand sin and stay the first appearance of that which is evill and the nature and property of it being loved is to destroy sin where it is and to keep out of it and kill that from whence the motions to sin would arise this is that which led me out of sin when no other waies helps or meanes could be found and that which sheweth man his sin and leadeth out of sin and gives power over it is a certain rule to follow and walke by for it doth never lead into sin and that which letteth see the motions of sin and leadeth out of all sin is absolutely that which commeth from him in which there is no sin and certainly as true as the Lord God liveth this is that which leadeth up even to the Lord God of life and this is his free love who gave his son to them that asked not for him and his Son is the light which is the gift of the Fathers Love given to the Rebellious that he might be manifest to them that asked no for him and that he might be found of them who sought him not that he might dwell in them who did rebell and gather them nere who were afar off this is Gods eternall love and the gift of his grace unto all mankind who willeth not that they should dye in their sins and these are the true and faithfull sayings of God and that which will stand for ever and in the presence of the Lord God of life and of his holy Angels I doe declare that this is that which God hath placed in man to rule him in his feare that by it he may come to rest eternall and in the face of men and devils who oppose the truth of God I doe affirme that there is no other Rule waies meanes or name by which man shall ever come to walke with God but by that which is manifest of God in him even the light of Christ Jesus the Son of the living God according to the Scriptures But we boast not of things without our measure but according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us A measure to reach even unto you who have not known the Rule according to 2 Cor. 10. 13. The true Prophet who was to come is come and there is not an other his worke witnessed truth declared from a feeling sence and experience according to Scripture THe true Prophet is come of whom Moses the servant of the Lord did write who is raised up in the midst and hath rent the vaile and from under death is risen in his unlimited power Dominion and authority even him that death nor the grave can not hold who through death hath conquered death for ever and though death had power over him before the way into the holyest of all was made manifest yet death now hath no more dominion over him but he is risen through death who was made a curse and hath borne
