Also, the way of restoration, of salvation, redemption, and of life eternal, is here declared ... that all may come to the knowledge of the Creator, and to have fellowship with him again, from whom all the children of men are separated in the state of enmity, and are ignorant of him, and drove from his presence. This is to go abroad into all the earth, through the whole world ... that they ... may be restored again to serve, and worship, and glorifie the living God, who made heaven and earth, and all things therein.

being turned from the Covenant wherein he was set into his own willing and desiring in the outward Creation the evil defiled him and he became evil and a fruitless tree that cumbred the ground and an enmity was placed in him by disobedience and all things became evil to him and the door of all misery and sorrovv was opend let in the curse upon him invvardly and outvvardly for he became dead in transgression to the life and povver and vvisdom of the Creator and every moment vvas subject to dye to this World also And through transgression of the Povver that made him he vvas cast out of the Creators Garden and out of his love to labour under the curse in unprofitable ground and also out of his ovvn dignity and honor dominion vvas he cast became heir of death and child of Wrath and Enemy in his mind unto the Creator and an enmity vvas placed in him against the Povver that made him rebellion in his mind from vvhich all the Works of unrighteousness proceeds innocency vvas lost man became hurtful to himself to all creatures grieved continually the Povver that made him vvas drove from the presence feeling of his Creator into insensibleness and in this state unto this day are all ye sons daughters of the first Adam in the enmity against the povver that made you every moment transgressing it death reigns over you all the povver of darkness rules in you all the Lavv of sin death transgression are you all subject to led captive in your minds affections desires at the vvill of the povver that leads into transgression called the devil in that state you are all strangers to God are vvithout him in the World ignorant of the knovvledg of his ways and are in the perishing state for want of knowledge and subject to the curse of the power which you transgress and are heirs of his Wrath having no part in the Inheritance of blessing for a vail of darkness through sin hath overspread you all and covered you all from the sight and hearing and feeling of the Creator and of the mystery of his glory and wisdom and every one in particular and none excepted of all the children of Adam upon the face of the whole earth but all have sinned and transgressed and death reigns over all and blindness of heart hath possessed all and all have fallen short of the glory of the Creator all men are concluded by his spirit to be under sin and children of Wrath and Heirs of Corruption and in disobedience rebellion to the life that gives all men a being the whole world all people in it without exceptions of tribes Generations or Nations this is the state condition of all the sons of men all flesh hath corrupted his way upon the earth in his sight that made it and the wickedness of man is great in the earth and the imaginations and thoughts of every mans heart is evil continually and grieveth the Creator for the whole earth is filled with violence through mans trnsgression And now if any stock or age hath priviledge one above another to redemption and salvation and to the Kingdom of Peace and Glory but Jew and Gentile wise and foolish Noble and Ignoble Male and Female all people without exception are in transgression and by the line and measure of true judgement are shut out from the knowledge of life and salvation and of the Inhheritance of the Father in that state of enmity wherein every man in the world is fallen into and by one the offence came so death upon all men which reigns in the hearts of all and opposeth the life of the Creator and every one is imperfect in the sight of the Lord blind deaf dumb lame and without the sence of the Power that made him and brought him forth his eye sees not for it is covered with a vail of darkness neither doth the ear hear for it is stopped nor the Tongue speak nor the understanding pecceive any thing of the secrets of the Lord but all are separated and divided from the tree of life and are cast out from his presence by whom the world was made into blindness of heart and to the loathing of your selves and are more ignorant of your Maker then the Ox is of his owner or the Asse of his Masters Crib for you know not him that gives you life and all good things and that upholds you by the Word of his Power and this is his word unto you all You are all under the power of Satan and subject to his wil acting in iniquity and in evil bringing forth the fruits of death from that ground in which you now stand which is cursed and your Maker hath no pleasure in it for your fruits grieves his spirit that made you and vexes his soul which brought you forth for man is degenerated into the plant of a strange Vine and brings forth wild grapes and cursed fruits which is of a bitter taste unto the Lords soul who planted all things for himself who is the good Husband man but the whole earth is currupted and all mankind in it and man is not now acted nor led nor ruled in his heart by the Power that made him which gives him all good things but the power of Satan the Serpent the old Dragon which deceived from the beginning who is in the enmity against the life of the Creator he acts man and rules man to the abuse of all creatures and to his own destruction and every particular man is liable to the wrath and to the curse and to everlasting wo and misery and tormeut from his Maker in that state of disobedience whereinto all mankind is fallen not one upon the face of the whole earth excepted from transgression and so from misery nor none priviledged one above another unto happiness but as I have said Male and Female who was made in the Image of their Maker in the first Creation but now every man in the whole world is in the enmity against the life of the power that made him and is a child of wrath and shut up in blindness and unbelief under the Devils power which power abode not in the truth but is out of the truth and all mankind is left in this condition without help or helper or deliverance or means or way of salvation from himself or any other creature upon the face of the whole earth but is a Sheep without a Shepherd straying and wandering in the thoughts of his own heart after vanity and that wherein there is no profit to the Lord nor to his own soul but death and sorrow in all his wayes having forsaken the Fountain of living waters and gone a whoring after other Lovers and defiled himself and so brought destruction upon himself by his own doings who abounds in all evil lying theft murder envy strife
