not yet ascended to my Father but go unto my bretheren and say unto them I ascend unto your Father and my Father unto your God and my God Mary Magdalen came and told the Disciples that she had seen the Lord and he had spoken these things unto her the same day at evening being the first day of the week the Disciples were asembled Iesus came and stood in the midst and said peace be among you Mat 28. Mar. 16. Now here all may see that it was Mary Magdalen that was sent to declare his resurrection and she was to tell the bretheren the Disciples whether Christ was to go to his Father and our Father his God and our God where her Testimony was received Now you that make a scoffe and a wonder at a woman's declaring you may see that it was Mary that first declared Christ after he was risen so be ashamed and confounded for ever and let all your mouths be stopt for ever that despise the spirit of prophecy in the daughters and do cast them into Prison do hinder the women labourers in the Gospel and saith the Apostles Christ in the Male and in the Female and if Christ be in the Female as well as in the Male is not he the same and may not the spirit of Christ speak in the Female as well as in the Male is he there to be limited who is it that dare limit the holy one of Israel for the light is the same in the Male and in the Female which cometh from Christ him by whom the world was made and so Christ is one in all and not divided and who is it that dares stop Christ's mouth that now is come to Reign in his sons and daughters Christ in the Male and Christ in the Female and you that will not have him to Reigne in the Female as well as in the male you are against Scriptures and will not have him to Reigne over you for in that male where Christ doth Reigne rule and speak 2. Cor. 13. he will own Christ in the Female there to Reigne Rule and speak and come to see the Apostles doctrine a Minister of Christ and of God and not made by the will of man who said that Christ was in the male and in the Female Christ all in all and Christ in you Except you be Reprobates know you that be Reprobates in whom Christ doth not Reigne nor Rule you cannot endure that Christ should be in the Female nor in the Male but him you will hayle into Prison and yet profess the words as the Pharisees did to whom Christ said I was sick and in Prison and you visited me not and I was naked and hungry and ye cloathed me not nor fed me now them which had Scripture and would not have Christ to Reigne said when saw we thee in Prison or naked and hungry and we Cloathed thee not or visited thee not in as much as you did it not to the least of these you did it not unto me said Christ So if they who visited him not in Prison who had the Scriptures to talk on of Christ that was to come as you have of one which is come and would not have him Reigne as you will not now such were to go into punishment prepared for the Devil and his Angles if such punishment come upon them that visited him not when he was cast into Prison what will come upon you that do him cast into Prison but Christ is come to Reigne him by whom the world was made who now Reignes in his sons and daughters and in the male and in the female That the glory is seen that the Son had with the father before the world began which Glory those males and females that receive Christ do see that the spirits of the Prophets is subject to the Prophets whether it be son or daughter that prophecies and the Prophets may speak one by one in the true Church and a daughter is a Prophetess and may prophecy as well as a son 1 Cor. 14.31 32 33. Now every one having a light from Christ Iesus the son of God him by whom the world was made being turned to the light turned to Christ I say him by whom the world was made and see him the Prophet whom God had raised up which Moses spoke of who is the end of the Prophets and with the light see Christ the Gift of God the promise of the father and receive him you will see with the light such as act contrary to the light which they are lighted withal what due and portion is to them who contrary to the light do act which comes from Jesus Christ and with the light you will see the promise to them of life that walk in the light that comes from Jesus and every one receiving the light that comes from Christ you shall receive the spirit of prophecy whether you be male or female and the spirit of prophecy is the Testimony 〈◊〉 Jesus if male or female have received the Testimony of Jesus they have received the spirit of prophecy Rev. 19.10 And many women are helping labourers in the Gospel now which lay down their necks whose names are written in the book of life in this time the Gospel is preached again according to Iohn in the Revelation Rev. 14.6 but in the time of the beast false Church and Antichrist they have bin forbidden by them Phebe was a Minister or servant or Pastor as some Translations hath it of the Church at Cencrea Here Paul who forbad womens speaking in the Church did encourage these labouring women in the Gospel Though the Apostle who see such women as were buisy bodys tatlers and run up and down he rebukes them and brings them under the Law which were gon into the deceived state as Eve was and he said it was a shame for such women to speak in the Church for such were in that nature that would usurpe authority over the man and such were to be limmitted according to the Law for they ran into that which brought the shame which the Apostle Iudged but he sets forth the comliness in 1 Cor. 11. how women ought to pray prophecy and recorded it as a commendation the womens labouring in the Gospel and Phillips daughters prophecying and Pricilla and Phebe and did commend such so he made distinction here and preached Christ in the male and female who is above Iesabel who is above Eve and the state of a woman 's not speaking and he in the females may speak or the Prophetesses of him by the spirit of God and this the Apostle holds forth who was not made a Minister by the will of man which they that are made by the will of man denies And the Apostles did not judge Mary Magdalen for declaring to them the Resurrection of Jesus nor tell her they did not suffer a woman to speak but we say all the women in Christendome that know the death of Jesus and his Resurrection and are dead with him and risen with him that know his Resurrection may freely declare it and they that are in the spirit of Christ as the Apostles were would not Judge them And we say they that are like Hannah the prophetess that see Christ Jesus the Saviour and doth confess him to all that look for Redemption in Christendom both of the Christians and Jews we are not against such Prophetesses though many of the pevish Priests are And Simeon the just man did not finde fault with Hannah for preaching Christ to all them that looked for Redemption in Ierusalem nor Zachary the Priest neither did they tell her that a woman must not speak and Iohn in the Revelation said the Testimony of Jesus is the spirit o● prophecy by which they overcame now if all women have the Testimony of Jesus have not they then the spirit of prophecy and if all be led by the spirit of God are they not then from under the Law and then may they not prophecy for there is none that will finde fault with the daughters prophecying women labourers in the Gospel but such as do not live in the Testimony of Jesus which is the spirit of prophecy and such do not understand the condition that these women were in that Paul doth not suffer nor permit to speak in the Church but to be in silence as also saith the Law and are not led by the spirit of God nor do live in it nor in the Testimony of Jesus but are in the disobedience as Eve was and so goes into tatlings and goes out of truth as Iesabel did for in the disobedience comes the shame and usurping upon which goes the Law and the not permitting to speak for the speaking as moved of the Lord is in the obedience to the power spirit which does not bring to usurpe over the man as the disobedience doth which the man Christ comes over which he in the ●●le and in the female may speak which is one which ends the Law and ●●rowes down that which usurped Authority that brought and brings the shame and there the seed of God is over all set and the top stone laid and so farwell Sons and Daughters F.
