sorrow and wayling and gnashing of teeth which is denied by all the Children of light The man of sin hath exalted himself above all this is called God or that is worshiped so that he as God fits in the Temple of God that he might be revealed in his due time whose coming is even after the coming of Satan with all power and lying wonders and with all deceiveableness of unrighteousness in him and them that perish because that they and he did not receive the love of the truth that they might be saved for this cause hath God gi●en him and them up to strong delusions that they should believe lies that they all might be damned together who believe not the truth but take pleasure in unrighteou●ness for to the world hath Iohn Gilpin and the rest of the sub●cribers directed their book they are of the world and the world heareth them therefore speak they to the world and the world heareth them and the whole world lyeth in wickedness they who are Children of light are not of the world we which are in the light are of God and he that knoweth God heareth us he that is not of God heareth not us hereby we know the Spirit of truth and the Spirit of error So marvell not my brethren if the world hate you and persecute you as many of the subscribers to Iohn Gilpins book hath done persecuted many imprisoned many for we know we have passed from death to life because we love the bretheren but he that loveth not his brother abideth in the death and who so hateth his brother is a murderer and hath not eternall life abiding in him so ye Children of light who see Iohn Gilpin and his subscribers where the man of sin is re●ealed the Son of perdition comprehended all you are with the light which is your condemnation remember in your life-time you are warned and you are in secret read this now bretheren in the light be not ye so soon shaken in your minds neither by his books nor words who hath given heed to fables swerved from the truth and turned aside and so now directs his book to his own who heareth and receiveth it He that hath an eare let him heare and understand he that hath an eye for over to Satan is he turned and delivered and so with the wicked judged who are both with the light condemned which from his lies and fables the Children of light are escaped are not they of the world that do persecut the Children of light are not they of the world that are given over to beleive lies are not they of the world that heareth the world are not they of the world that sends their writing to the world and doth the world heare the Saints and doth not the world love her own and did not ever the world hate the Children of light was Iohn Gilpin come to that power that made the Devills to tremble and you who worship the beast whom all the world wonders after to blaspheme and doth the beast blasphem the power of God yea or nay was that the power of God that made the Devills to tremble in Iohn Gilpin yea or nay Answer else confess in your silence guilty and let your mouths be stopped for ever is it the power of God that makes the Devills to tremble and doth not the world call this the power of the Devil and so abuse the power of God nay or yea Having seen a book wherein the life and conversation of Iohn Gilpin by severall hands certified that Iohn Gilpin hath ever walked as becomes the Gospel I have knowne him this 12 or 14. yeares and this I can say and lie not he was never owned in the least of any that had a profession but was of the sort which ran to all excess of riot a common Drunkard a Cocker a Gamster as some of those is which hath given testimony of his Gospel-conversation but if this be their Gospel conversation it with the light of Christ is denied and in judgment neither it nor they can stand but with the light is to be condemned and with the Children of the light to be denied and seene to be out of the Gospel It is not the boasting Spirit that lodgeth in the enemies of God that can hurt the truth which casteth out floods of water to destroy the truth for in safetie is it kept neither those high swelling words can hide him from the wrath of God that is revealed to be powred forth upon all unrighteousness and know thou lier that my testimony is true and shall stand and this I declare to all in the presence of him that knoweth that I lie not that as I was passing down the high street in Kendall betwixt the place called the new Brigging and the lower Wel John Gilpin was passing on the street in that place I sae him drunk but they being so large in their exposition of things they may do the like of his drunkenness these are the signes which I shall declare which will be a sufficient testimony that he was drunk first that he reeled to and fro secondly turning to a side of the street standing talking to a woman was not able to stand without wandering Thirdly his face inflamed scarse able to look with his eye the woman speaking to him but he could not speak plain and the woman prayed God to bless him Thou sayest that 's true that information was given in against him but not on oath Reader take notice that nothing will pass currant with them unless it hath the stamp of an oath see here they are not in the doctrin of Christ that would have men to sweares but out of the light they are shut and with the light is to be damned And as for his friends I charge them with alie they never came to me and told me any such thing as that it was a gross forgery neither did I give them any such answer as that he was drunk with sin though it was his sin to be drunk so let all that nameth the Name of the Lord depart from iniquity the light mind that brings into purity so thou mayest stand in thy integrity so wilt thou see the beast and the false prophet and their lying wonders and with the light of Christ they will be condemned Robert Wharton I having occasion into the fields upon my comming back over the neither brigg I meet with Iohn Gilpin and I set my eyes upon him and I understood the man was drunk immediatly his Wife comming out of his own house she desired him to go in and he refused and she began to strugle with him and so with much to doe she got him in and as for what he was formerly I well know he was a common Drunkard a Cocker a Gamster and with such like actions and practices brought his Wife and Children to penury and want Roger Baccus And for the heads and cheefest of your witnesses which
