and the Turks who make this Confession in your Alcoran then you must believe the Old Testament and the Gospel of the New concerning Christ Jesus the Son of Mary and of the Seed of David according to the Flesh and that Jesus Christ came according to the promise of God to his Prophets who was Born of the Virgin Mary And Mahomet in his Alcoran confesses That Jesus Christ was not begotten by the will of Man who was conceived of Mary and that she should conceive and bring forth without the touching of Man. I say the Angel of God said to Mary He was conceived by the Holy Ghost and so called the Son of God And Mahomet saith in his Alcoran Page 30. Chap. 33. That John did affirm Christ to be the Messiah and to be the Word of God. Now if the Turks do believe this which Mahomet saith in his Alcoran then you must believe what Christ saith of himself and the Angel of God and what the Apostle saith of him John saith of him In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and God was the Word and all things were made by the Word and without him was not any thing made that was made and in the Word was Life and the Life was the Light of Men and that was the true Light which enlightens every Man that comes into the World. Now here is the Divine Light which is the Life in Christ the Word by which all things were made which enlightens every Man that comes into the World to their Salvation if they believe in the Light and to their Condemnation if they hate the Light And John saith This Word was made Flesh and dwelt amongst us and his Apostles beheld his Glory as the Glory of the only begotten of the Father full of Grace and Truth and of his fulness they did receive Grace for Grace and saith The Law came by Moses but Grace and Truth by Jesus Christ Now whereas the Emperor of the Turks saith That he is Commander and Guardian of the Christians Crucified God. Now in this he is mistaken for the Eternal Incomprehensible Invisible Everlasting God whose Divinity extends throughout the whole Earth who is God in Heaven above and in the Earth beneath to whom all Nations are but as the Drop of a Bucket this is the true Christians God whom they Serve and Worship in his Spirit and Truth which the Jews did not Crucifie nor could they Crucifie and it is Blasphemy for the Jews or any to say That they did Crucifie the true Christians Eternal Invisible God and great Ignorance for any to say That the true Christians God was Crucified or that the Eternal Incomprehensible Immortal God the Creator of all who is the God of the Spirits of all Flesh and the Breath of all Mankind is in his Power so that poor Mortals or Externals should say think or imagine that the Eternal Invisible Everlasting Immortal Incomprehensible God was or can be Crucified which they cannot comprehend which is the true Christians God. But Christ which was made of the Seed of David according to the Flesh who took not upon him the Nature of Angels but the Seed of Abraham He Suffered for us in the Flesh And so as Christ also hath once Suffered for Sins in the Flesh he the Just for the Unjust that Christ might bring us to God so God was not Crucified but Christ being put to Death or Crucified in the Flesh but quickened again in the Spirit and rose again and sits at the right Hand of God this Peter one of the Apostles of Jesus testifieth and the true Christians now believe it and though Christ was Crucified through Weakness that is through the Flesh yet he is alive and liveth by the Power of God 2 Cor. 13. So it is clear that the Eternal and Invisible Incomprehensible God was not nor cannot be Crucified but Christ the Son of God suffered according to the Flesh not in his God-head So Christ dyed for our Sins according to the Scripture of the Old and New Testament For as in Adam all dyed so even in Christ shall all be made alive and that Christ by the Grace of God should taste Death for every Man So it was not the Invisible Eternal Incomprehensible God that was Crucified and Dyed and did taste Death for every Man but Christ according to the Flesh who was manifest to take away our Sin and in him there was no Sin so Christ was manifest to destroy the Works of the Devil and Christ through his Death destroys Death that Sin brought and the Devil the Power of Death And about the ninth hour when Jesus Christ hanged upon the Cross He cryed with a loud Voice saying My God my God why hast thou forsaken me So it is clear the Eternal God did not Dye nor was Crucified but Christ was put to Death in the Flesh this testifies Mathew one of Christs Apostles so he was the one Offering who made an end of all the Offerings among the Jews through the offering up of the Body of Jesus once for all so the Man Christ Jesus offered up himself one Sacrifice for Sins so by that one Offering he hath perfected forever them that are Sanctified so he is the Propitiation Offering and Sacrifice for the Sins of the whole World yea Jesus Christ which was of the Seed of David and so according to the Scripture Christ Dyed for our Sins and he was buried and rose again the third Day according to the Scriptures and after he was risen from the Dead he was seen of the twelve Apostles and again He was seen of above five hundred Brethren at once that were Believers in him and this was after he was Dead Buried and Risen but none of the Princes of the World knew him for had they known Christ they would not have Crucified him but we know now that Christ being raised from the Dead dies no more and Death hath no more Dominion over Christ in that he died unto Sin and for the Sins of the whole World but now he being raised from the Dead he is set at the right Hand of God and therefore Jesus of Nazareth a Man approved of God by Miracles Wonders and Signs which God did by him this Jesus the Son of Mary the Jews with their wicked hands did take Crucified and Slay but it was God who loosed the Pangs of Death because it was not possible that he should be holden of it and though the Jews did Crucifie Jesus Slew him and Hanged him on a Tree yet God hath raised him up the third Day and God hath Exalted him at his right Hand to be a Prince and a Saviour to give Repentance c. and forgiveness of Sins and so Christs Apostles were Witnesses how God raised him from the Dead so you may here see it was not God that was Crucified and Dyed for he raised Christ from the Dead on the third Day and shewed him openly to his Apostles

his Hands who said All power in Heaven and Earth is given unto me who is set down in Heaven at the right Hand of God and is revealed by his Spirit in his People who knows his Heavenly Voice distinct from the Voice of the Devil and all his Angels and all the natural Mens Voices upon the Earth Christ Jesus his Heavenly Voice is known distinct from them all who is above them all and God and Christ may suffer or permit thee to destroy Hypocrites c. But Jesus Christ saith thou nor no Man is able to pluck his Sheep out of his Hands yea out of his Hand that was crucified and is Risen and Ascended into Heaven and sits at the right Hand of God thou hast no power to pluck his Sheep out of his Hand and therefore thou art not able nor no Man And therefore take heed of striving against him that is too mighty for thee And Sultan Mahomet Emperor of the Turks thou sayest Thou doest not fear the Wrath of their Crucified God to wit the Christians as is said before God cannot be Crucified but Christ Jesus was Crucified according to the Flesh who is Risen and Ascended and sits at the right Hand of God but hear O Turk what his Apostle saith of him When the Lord Jesus Christ shall be Revealed from Heaven with his mighty Angels in Flaming Fire taking Vengance on them that know not God and obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ who shall be punished with everlasting Destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his Power when he shall be glorified in his Saints and be admired by all them that believe who shall consume the Wicked with the Spirit of his Mouth and destroy them with the brightness of his coming Hallelujah And therefore let every one that names the name of Jesus depart from Iniquity for he hath born the Iniquities of us all and makes an end of Sin and Redeems us from Iniquity and finishes Transgression who through his Death destroys Death that Sin brought and the Devil the power of Death and so there is no other name amongst Men given under the whole Heaven whereby we must be saved but by the name of Jesus which signifies a Saviour and according to the Prophet A Virgin shall be with Child conceived by the Holy Ghost and shall bring forth a Son and they shall call his name Immanual which by Interpretation is God with us so by his Son Jesus Christ God is with us that God who was Speaker and Teacher of Adam and Eve in Paradice and as long as they kept under his teaching they were happy but when they forsook God's teaching and speaking and hearkened unto the Serpents speaking and teaching and followed it they came into misery and his Posterity but according to the Promise of God to Adam The Seed of the Woman is come to bruise the Serpents Head the destroyer and he namely Christ the Son of God is the Saviour and now in these last Dayes God teaches us and speaks to us by his Son Christ Jesus whom God hath appointed to be heir of all things by whom he made the World the Heavens and the Earth and the Seas and all things therein and so all the Children of the Lord are taught of the Lord and in Righteousness are they Established And there are three which bear Witness or Record in Heaven the Father the Word and the holy Ghost and these are one and there are three which bear Record in Earth the Spirit the Water and the Blood viz. The Blood of Christ which cleanseth from all Sin and the Water which washeth from all filthiness and the Spirit to lead into all Truth and Baptizes to Plung down Sin and Evil and to Circumcise to put off the body of Death and Sins of the Flesh which is come into Man and Woman by Transgression and you must feel this Spirit in your hearts which is a Witness for God who gives it you which will be a witness for you or a witness against you And you must feel the Blood of Christ sprinkle your Consciences from your dead Works that you may serve the living God which Blood will be a witness for you or a witness against you and you must feel the Water of the Word to wash you and cleanse you which will be a Witness for you or a Witness against you so the Spirit of God the blood of Jesus the Water of the Word are three that agree in one that bear Witness or Record in the Earth and there are three which bear Witness or Record in Heaven the Father the Word and the holy Ghost and these three are one he that hath an Ear to hear let him hear By the Offence of one to wit Adam Judgment came upon all Men to Condemnation Even so by the Righteousness of one to wit Christ Jesus the free Gift of God came upon all Men unto Justification of Life For God so loved the World that he gave his only begotten Son Jesus Christ that whosoever believeth in him should not Perish but have everlasting life And they that do believe in him have everlasting Life John 3.16 Rom. 5.18 Now concerning Gods Son Jesus Christ our Lord he was made of the seed of David according to the Flesh and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness by the Resurrestion from the Dead Rom. 1.3 4.
