mysteries are as in thy book and thy queries where thou puts Elect and reprobate together and as for tryall of spirits we give liberty and exhort all that may try and we direct them to that to try by which is is infallible and eternall whereby they may see and comprehend thee and all who have not the Spirit But that they should try who hath nothing to try with let all such be silent for ever for none understands the Spirit but the Spirit with which we see thee and all who stands in their imaginations ignorant of therefore stop thy mouth in the dust and be silent 9 Quer. Doth not they that speak to a people that declares against all appearances which are contrary to his way discover himself unto a true discerning Spirit not to be of the Lord unlesse they can demonstrate a spirituall Commission that he hath received from heaven by voice of words through the glorious mouth of the Lord so that no mortall man can disprove him though few for want of understanding receive him Ans. The way that leads to the Father is but one which is Christ and he that declares from him made manifest in him declares against all Sects and Opinions and that which thou cals appearances and the way is one and the Tru●h one where there is no rent nor division and he that dwels in the life hath discerning and he that witnesses the annointing discernes he is able to judge and discern and in that thou art seen who would sit on the throne but thou must come down and lick the dust dust is the serpents meat and they who had their Commission from God and hath their Commission from God now they were made manifest to every mans conscience in the sight of God and this we witnesse this the Scripture witnesseth and he that believes hath the witnesse in himself and the father bears witnesse and they witnesse the voice of the Lord which is spirituall speaking to them and they declare from that which is spirituall to the consciences of gainsayers and this is witnessed but thy voice of words is carnal and is denyed and who art thou made manifest unto that which is mortal cannot discern and disprove thee but that which is immortal can and they who are guided by the immortall denies thee and will receive none of thy testimony because it is not the same which the holy men of God witnessed and doth now witnesse which voice shakes the wildernesse and rents the rocks and makes the earth to reel to and fro but to thee this is a mystery and sealed 10 Quer. Again he that speaketh of an invisible spirituall God or Christ living in the consciences or spirit of men thou sayeth he questions the truth of all the Scripture records concerning the life death and resurrection and aseension of the blessed body of Christ into the throne of his immortall glory and doth he not que●●ion whether the consciences of the Saints being sprinkled with the blood of Jesus which died without the g●●es of Jerusalem are purified from the pollution of the flesh and Spirit doth he not question the resurrection of the souls and bodies out of the eat●h at the last day Ans. Here again thou hast made thy sha●e and thy ignorance manifest and knows not so much as the Letter of he Scripture Paul in Apostle of Jesus Ch●ist notby the will of man and Minister of the everlasting God he witnessed the Son of God revealed in him and he ●●i● kn●w ye 〈…〉 Christ ●s in you or else you are rep●●●ates and ●h●i●t is no● divided and he tha● is joyned to the Lord is ●●e Spirit and 〈◊〉 my Father are one ●●d w●●●e Christ dwells the Father dwells and if thou have ●● e●● to hear ●hou may h●●● and if the ●●●e Spirit be not in you that raised Christ 〈…〉 he ●●●d you are 〈…〉 and he that declared these things speak of a spi●i●ua●l Christ and an invi 〈…〉 God and who ●●all ascend up to heaven the word is nigh in thy mo●t●● and 〈◊〉 heart and this is the same Christ that suffered without the ga●e at Jerusalem and no other wh●●h Paul travelled till he was born in them if thou have an ear th●u may hear and the Apost●● did not question the Scripture records for they spoke it and recorded it and th●y witnessed the life of Christ and his death and resu●rection and a●c●nsion and witnessed him ascended above thrones and dominions and to sit at the right hand of the Father and witnesse the same Christ made manifest in us and his resurrection not because Paul said so we have seen it and are witnesses of it the same that ever was the same that did ascend the same did ascend this is a riddle unto thee and seven seals is upon it and thou that queries shall never see them opened and they who had Christ in them and the Father the Son supping with them they had their conscience sprinkled and none else for his bloud thou knows not and so I say unto thee thou art not sprinkled nor thy conscience purified from dead works and they who know Christ in them and no more after the flesh come to know his resurrection he is the resurrection he is the first and the last who knows him risen and have seen him witnesse the first day and the last what speaks thou of a last day that never came to the beginning and so thy soul lies in death and in chains and in utter darknesse and therefore lay thy hand upon thy mouth and see where thou ●●t and the Spirit that gave forth the Scriptures thou cannot witnesse 11 Quer.

There is a resurrection both of the just and of the unjust the just into everlasting life and the unjust into everlasting shame and contempt and every one shall receive according to his works whether they be good or evill but this a mystery hid for none knowes it but through death but what knowes thou who art yet alive in sin what shall be in the resurrection which is after death which whoever comes to know the resurrection knowes the e●d of all things therefore it is not taking their words nor thy own imaginations that is faith nor if thou know Christ no nearer than Jerusalem nor no nearer than above the starres thou knowes not where but through thy dark imaginations this is not to Christ risen from the dead see therefore what hast thou seen in thy self But thou art dead whiles thou lives in that nature and at the resurrection contempt and shame will be thy portion and turn in thy minde to that which
