the false swearers Mal. 3.5 did not Christ cry wo unto the Jews and Pharisees that said it was nothing to swear by the Temple and told them they that sware by the Temple and the Gold of the Temple offended these were the Jews that he told of swearing by the Altar and the offering and sware by all things that was on the Altar and he that sware by the Temple sware by him that dwelt in the Temple and he that sware by Heaven sware by the Throne of God and him that sat thereon Christ spake these things to the Jews he cryed wo against who was not believers Mat. 23.16 to the 22 this was spoken to the Jews and Pharisees that knew not Christ that that was in the swearing against which he cryed woe who saw not the substance of the Altar and Temple that they sware by and the things thereon who saith sweare not at all Mat. 5. Peter cursed and sware Mat. 26.74 Mat. 14 71.72· but after he repented the Jews oath was to swear by the Lord and the Christians was to keep to yea and nay in their communications not to swear at all Mat. 5. Jam. 5. and the Jews was not to swear by the Books of Moses nor the Prophets as the Apostate Christians who swore by the contents of the Books but their oath was to swear by the Lord and the Jews was not to swear by the Gods of the Heathen for Amos told them that sware by the sin of Samaria should fall and never rise again Amos 8.14 And the Lord swore to the children of Israel that they should not make mention of the names of their Gods nor sware by them for the Heathen sware by their Gods but the Jews were to swear by the Living God and perform their oaths to the Lord Jos 23.7 which Christ ends And the Jews when they were under transgression they sware by the Gold and by the Altar and by the Temple and the Christians that are apostatized from the Apostles have sworn by the Epistles and the Evangelists for which they have no example from Christ nor Scriptures which said they might not swear by Heaven for it was Gods Throne for he that sware by the Throne sware by him that sat thereon nor they should not swear by the Earth nor the head And James that followed the Doctrine of Christ one of his Disciples said swear not at all And Zachary saith in his prophesie every one that sweareth shall be cut off Zac. 5.3 the Lord would cut off the swearer that swears by the Lord and swears by Malcham Zeph. 1.5 So the King sware secretly to Jeremiah as the Lord liveth Jer. 38.16 and the Jews was to learn the ways of the Lord and sware by the Name of the Lord that liveth as they had taught the people to swear by Baall so there was the false oath judged by the Prophet Jer. 12 16. but Christ who ends the Prophets and the Jews outward ends the oath and saith swear not at all And the Lord sware in his wrath to the Jews that they should not enter into his rest Psal 95.11 the Apostle saith Heb. 3.10 11 they entred not because of unbeliefe therefore he sware in his wrath for they erred in their hearts from the oath which would have brought them in that turned against them And he saith verily men swear by the greater chap 6.13.16 how God sware by himself because he could not swear by a greater and how men sware by the greater and their oath was to end the strife in the Law but this is made by an oath Christ Jesus the Lord hath sworn and will not repent thou art a Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedeck the Apostle doth not bring that to the Hebrews that they should swear but as a similitude the substance of which is Christ and that men sware by a greater then themselves and because God could not find a greater be sware by himself and the oath in the Law ended the strife among men and made the peace but Christ Jesus that ends the Law ends the oath and destroyes the Divil the Author of strife and reconciles man to God in peace he through death destroying him who had the power of death the Devil Heb. 2.14 chap. 7.2.1 and Zhecharias when he Prophesied saw the oath which God sware to Abraham Luke 1.71 and none of these places in the new Testament doth prove that the Christians did swear for they had the oath of God performed that enjoyed Christ Jesus and who enjoyeth the oath of God performed the end of the Prophets he saith unto them they must not swear at all Now if you say the Angel sware in the Revelations and in Daniel by him that lived for ever and ever this was a true oath Dan. 12.7 Rev. 10.6 who sware concerning the mystery of God being finished which God sware to the Prophets his Servants which comes to enjoy the mystery of God Christ Jesus they have the end of the Prophets and servants the mystery to him the Angels must bow I bring forth my only begotten Son into the World let all the Angels worship him who saith swear not at all And Christ said unto the Jews and to his Disciples how men had sworn in the old time and was to perform their oath to the Lord and that was the true oath and Christ saith I say unto you now swear not at all and let them see that men should not forswear themselves but perform their oaths to the Lord and so he distinguished between the true and the false and then bid them they should not swear at all mark not at all neither by Heaven nor by Earth nor by their head nor by Jerusalem for he gives them the reason but tells them what they must say and what they must do that takes away all swearing let your communication be yea yea nay nay whatsoever is more then these comes of evil Mat. 5.33 34 35 36 37. And this is the Doctrine of Christ that faith swear not at all who was the oath of God performed And James one of the Disciples and Apostles of Christ Jesus that abode in his Doctrine said above all things my brethren swear not at all neither by Heaven nor by Earth nor by any other oath and then the Apostle taught people what they should do and said let your yea be yea and your nay nay least you fall into condemnation And so Christ and the Apostle did not say they were to swear by the Lord and told them these were frivolous oaths they denyed but told them they was not to swear at all not by any oath for if they did they fell into condemnation So the Doctrine of Christ and the Apostles who ended oaths denyed swearing and all oaths said they were to keep to yea and nay and their yea was to be yea and nay nay which keept them out of condemnation and who lives in this are redeemed out of the Apostacy since the Apostles daies to Christ and the Apostles Doctrine that knows the oath performed and Law and first Covenant and Moses and a greater then Solomon before Abraham was though these swore yet he saith swear not at all and this is my beloved Son hear him and there is the top stone laid and Christ reignes Mat. 5. All these Scriptures which are in all 113. are brought to oppose Christs Doctrine by the Apostates which prove nothing that the Christians should swear The oath of God his Law being kept his promise was performed which brought the Jews into the outward Land of Canaan which had the types and figures and shaddows which Christ ends the oath Law and first Covenant and types and figures and shaddows and redeems out of the Earthly Canaan and from the Earth to God and so brings into the Land of the Living THE END
