As also, that the outward man, how eminent soever in all naturall and politicall sciences, is to bee denied, and die in us. And, that the inward man by the light of grace, through profession and practice of a holy life, is to be acknowledged and live in us: which is the onely means to keep the true Sabbath in inward holinesse, and free from outward pollution. / By Valentine Weigelius.	Weigel, Valentin, 1533-1588.	1649 (1649)	Wing W1255; Thomason E562_14; ESTC R204068	39,144	50

world that they are not any more said to be of the world John 17. but of heaven although as to the body they are as yet conversant in the world And whatsoever any one doth by the Sabbath in the introversion of his mind he acts and orders with God and God with him in the hidden place of his heart this cannot be seen or known by any Spirit much lesse by Man In brief by the Sabbath alone the Phenix of our soul is renewed who altogether denying deposing refusing and accompting for nothing all the vanity of this world and it self from within and without plainly dies in the forgetfullnesse and contempt of all things Rom. 12. and of it self and offers it self a living and pleasing sacrifice to God and there being regenerate anew becomes a new creature a new off-spring from the seed of the woman by conception from the holy Spirit is made a Son of God a new Man an imitatour of Christ following his steps is made a hater of evill and a follower of good a new plant a new tree that is good which brings forth good fruits this is true repentance true penitence the true putting off the old Man c. Here some Astrologers are to be admonished of their want of knowledge who have not doubted to subject even the whole man with all things which are in him to the dominion of the world and Starrs in erecting their nativities as if a man were or had no more in himself then a bruit or beast through ignorance passing by the constitution of Man in three parts Spirit Soul and Body whose soul arising from the Firmamentall Zodiac and whose body from the Elements are altogether subject to the dominion of Nature But not the Spirit which we have from God and listning nothing to that that every Disciple of Christ and friend of God regenerate from above by faith and the death of sin in the most holy Sabbath hath within himself a most present medicine in his heart against all the poisonous and deadly wounds of nature and the Serpent and also the divine Commandement of deposing overcoming and conquering the old heaven with his inclinations of divers concupiscences and of walking in the newnesse of the Spirit in the Light of Grace To wisemen therefore that is to those that know both God and themselves rightly the matter is far better to be looked into for they know both are in us God and Nature The Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of the world The Tree of Life and the Tree of Death The greater Light and the lesser Light The seed of the Woman and the seed of the Serpent And also that man is placed between these two to be exercised in this world in a perpetual war whether of these should overcome thence shall man have his reward for God will render to every one all crafty excuse and imbecillity being laid aside c. according to his works whether they be good or evill Here you shall observe an example touching the change of man from an inferiour and worser nature into a superiour and better nature If you take a certain stone lying by chance in a sunny place and very much heated by the too much parching heat of the Sun and put it into water or some river then the Sun can no more make it so hot or penetrate it with his heat in like manner the case is in the Theologization of Astrologie * The exercise of the Sabbath or Theologization of Astrologie is to dic to thy self and the whole creature to offer thy self wholly to God with all things which are within and without us Hither belong all the Scripture and all books speaking of the mortification of Man Take or gather and apprehend all thy evill nature and thy unsincere affections and unlawfull lusts too much operating and flourishing in thee I say take and put them by the Sabbath into the mind or spirit of thy mind which thou hast from God who is the everlasting fountain and water of life and sabathize in a solid and constant abnegation of thy self and of all things known unto thee which are within thee as well as without thee that thou maist almost wholly die there then will thy soul with all her adherent stones of concupiscences fall down and be drowned in the depth of the supernall water which is the Spirit of God infused in us and the firmamentall operation will more and more cease and be wearied in thee and the ascendant Starrs of thy concupiscences will no more afflict urge drive carry thee as before but from day to day thou shalt ease thy self from that most hard yoke of the Zodiac and of all the Planets thy youth shall be renewed as an Eagle and thou shalt be like an infant new-born and shalt perceive in thy self new vertues and affections to work and move in thee arising inclining oecupying leading and governing thee from the celestiall Starr and influence of the divine Spirit c. So as where heretofore thou hast bin the servant of sin and hast given thy members weapons of unrighteousnesse and malice now with trembling thou abhorrest the performances of thy forepast life and fraught with a new mind heart affections and desire from the exercise of the Sabbath by the Spirit of God hereafter thou shalt serve God and give up thy members weapons of justice piety charity mercy meeknesse temperance modesty chastity c. and so thou shalt rightly Theologize thy Astrologie so shalt thou best overcome correct amend thy nature so shalt thou rightly tread the head of the Serpent under thy feet so shalt thou well silence in thy self the assaults of the divell c. Hence the true Sabbath instituted and commanded of God is the best care and medicine against all kind of evill which quickly being death eternall to the soul and temporall to the body by which we may put off bear and take off that great and most grievous yoke and mountain of so great a Zodiac of so great a Firmament of so great Governours I say to take away the Kingdom or rule and to precipitate into the immense Sea of eternall water and ever and anon get new strength and come out more vivacious which was well known and used by the Patriarchs in the first age whence also they could get to themselves the Enochian long life upon earth by the exercise of this kind of mentall Sabbath which indeed is altogether obliterated abrogated in this our age and seems to be a thing unknown But how every one of us ought and may know and try in himself what and what kind truly is their Astrologie or firmamentall action or operation of the Light of Nature and how he may and can Theologize the same that is overcome Nature be made the Son of God c. this the following Chapters will illustrate and teach more clearly then the Sun CHAP.
