of God for ever and we parted And passing from Jamaico by Sea to the Ship it was in my Heart to breathe to God to preserve me safe to England and the answer of God's Spirit in my Heart was He would be sought unto Some-time after the Ship run upon Bohemia Sholes where we lost Anchor Cables and Plummet and in the Night-season I was constrained to break forth into Prayer so that all in the Ship heard me and the Wind Turning the Ship and Passengers were preserved and the Lord my God was with me all that Voyage and brought be safe to London the First Day of the Third Month 1660. A Coppy of a Letter formerly sent to Friends in Jamacio MY dear Friends Breathren Sisters I salute you all in the Truth and in a pure remembrance of our Heavenly Father's Love which my Soul with yours was made partaker of when present with you is never to be forgotten and in the renewedness thereof my Soul hath been refreshed and at present is my Spirit rejoycing in Christ Jesus who is a Fountain of Light and Life to all that believe and obey his holy Spirit 's leadings And I having obtained Mercy from the Lord it is in my mind in a few lines to visit the Seed of Life in you breathing to the God of our Salvation that we may be preserved together in the Holy and Blessed Union and pure Fellowship with God and one another in his Everlasting Truth which we have long made Profession of O how doth it greatly Concern you and I and every particular of us to Answer the Loving kindness of our God and Father that his Light that in measure hath Enlightened us and opened our understandings in the Mysteries of his Kingdom may shine forth in our Lives and Conversations to the Men of this Generation with whom we converse that we may shew forth the Vertue of his Light and Life freely given to us in Christ Jesus to the Praise of the Name of God who made us for a purpose of his own Glory and that you with me may have an understanding that a measure of Light is given to every one to profit with For our God hath not been wanting to us but hath given his Spirit to help our Infirmities for of our selves we can do nothing that is Acceptable in his Sight but he hath blessed us with Spiritual Blessings that our Souls may thrive in his Grace and Truth that comes by Christ who is the Wisdom and Power of God to all that truly Believe and Wait diligently in his Light and Spirit such do witness him to be revealed in them to give Life and Comfort to their Immortal Souls and they that in the Living Faith abide shall obtain Victory over the World's Spirit Within and Without but if we Suffer our Minds to wander from God after the fading things of this World that will bring Death and Darkness over your Minds again and the Spirit of this World will dceivee you as he did Eve by drawing her mind to look out and Eat of that which God had forbidden her therefore 't is my hearty desire to God that you and I watch diligently against the Enemy of our Souls who works in a Mystery to deceive and will appear as an Angel of Light as he did to me to my sorrow for the Devil knew where to lay his bait in tempting me and telling me it was good but when the Light began to shine in my Heart I found it to be as contrary to God as Darkness is to Light and my Soul Magnifies the Lord's Power over the Spirit and Power of Darkness Therefore dear Friends suffer the word of Exhortation through your Weak and Aged Brother who has long been Travelling towards Sion in that way of Truth which leads to Rest and Peace and in a hearty desire that you all may be found in a Spiritual Travail and witness a Spiritual Growth in Christ and be renewed in the Spirit of your mind for he is come near to Judge both Quick and Dead and they are Blessed that do put on the Armour of Light and are bringing forth fruits of Righteousness before God and Man they witness the Comfort thereof in themselves And if any among you hath a Form of Truth without the Power such are Spiritually Dead and Christ said Ye shall know them by their Fruits And you that are quickned to God and have passed from death to life are witness of those things for Light makes manifest and expels Darkness which deadens the Soul to God and clouds the Understanding in the Mysteries of his Kingdom O my dear Friends let us Joyn to the measure of Light in our Souls to know how it stands betwixt God and our Souls for according to his promise he will search Jerusalem as with Candles Therefore let all arise from the Dead that Christ may give you Light and if you are Risen with Christ mind Heavenly things And it doth nearly concern us that we believe and pray in the Faith of God's Elect to do his will on Earth as it is done in Heaven And as the living Members of the Natural Body are ready to help each other so much more will the living Members of the Mystical Body of which Christ is Head mutually Love each other Condescend Sympathize and Help the Weak and forbear one another And if any be overtaken in a fault you that are strong and Spiritual to restore such an one in the Spirit of meekness is precious and such a Spirit doth well become the Children of Light in this Day of God's Spiritual appearance which is broken forth in Spirit and Power within to Judge and Purge out of his People all that is contrary to his mind and Holy will Therefore dear Friends let us all wait to feel his Judgments upon the Transgressing Nature and this is our Father's Love to bring us into Conformity to his Son Christ Jesus And blessed is that Eye that Sees and Understands these things nothing shall Separate their Souls from the Love of God that which is near and dear as a Right Hand or Right Eye must be parted with yea even Life it self if Required which brings to my mind the preserving Arm and Power of my God both at Sea and Land in my going abroad and in my returning home again and to this Day he hath given me Health and Life Spiritually and Enabled me thus to write unto you being above Ninety Years of Age tho' with a shaking hand I beseech you to Receive these Lines in the Love of God manifested through this weak Vessel for the good of your Souls for with Longing desires I have some Years waited for strength thus to signifie the unchangeable Love of God who brought me thither where I felt your love to God his Truth and me also and have often thought of the Lord's Servant John who was Banisht into the Isle of Patmos where the Mystery of God was Gloriously Revealed unto him
