Hidden things made manifest by the Light in a plain distinction between Condemnation Temptation Concerning the Ministration of Condemnation THE World being set in mans heart and sin being in the world before the promise was made which promise was before the Law by which the sin is discovered which sin was in the world before the promise yet the promise was before the Law and yet until the Law come death reigns over that to which the promise is and sinne separateth man from God the which is not clearly seen until the Commandment which is Light is come the ministration whereof is condemnation unto MAN being found in the transgression the which Ministration of Condemnation is to pass over all having sinned and when this commeth it finds man in the death and by it is sinne revived whereby man comes to see a body of sin which stands between him and God so that he is afraid of the dreadful power of God ministred forth through the law to slay him that hath transgressed the which some coming to see or in the least measure to feel calleth it a temptation because it maketh him sensible that condemnation belongeth to him and that all his profession and building upon the promise in that which the promise was not unto and seeing that if he lyeth down to receive this Ministration that then all his profession and knowledge zeal wisdom and prayers which did arise out of that ground which was cursed by reason of the sinne that was in the world before either the promise the profession or the law will be all ript up from him as filthy Rags and that his shame and nakedness must appear as it 's written Every mouth shall be stopped and every one shall stand guilty before God and no darkness nor shadow of death shall hide the workers of iniquity from the mighty hand of God who bring●th to judgement the hidden things of darkness and rips open the secret of the heart so that the most secret sins that ever was committed are clearly made manifest and justly charged upon the head of the transgressor who stands in enmity to God who will wound the head of the transgressor and plead in righteousness with him in whom the sin is found though not made manifest until the time that the Law is come by which it is discovered And this Ministration of Condemnation is not a temptation though many call it so who being blind put darkness for light and light for darkness for that which sheweth man his sin doth not tempt man to sin but rather brings man in fear that he may not sin for because of sin was the Law added and the Law was given after much of the love preservation power deliverances and the wonders of the Lord had been seen and it was given in the Wilderness where sometime there was want of bread and water where was Serpents Scorpions and many trials where the figure of him who was to heal the wounded and take away the sting of death and save the life of man was lifted up on high without them the which figure or outward bodily appearance was prepared by Moses And Christ had a body prepared him both which the carnal eye might see the carnal mind contend about even as the Devil about the body of Moses but the substance of the figure Christ the Light Gods power being not received within in the heart and so sin the transgression of the Law remains within and the figure or that which the natural eye did or may see was and is looked upon without and that without doth not take away the sin within and these knew not the ways of God who sinned and at last loathed the Manna calling it light bread in the Wildernerness even there was the Law ministred they whose eyes are open may read and understand And where the Law was given forth there was a Mount or a high place of the earth which then trembled by reason of the dreadful power of the Lord of Hosts and beneath or under the Mount was the Seed and Israel of God which was to keep the Law and Life Read within and understand and yet by reason of that which was hard upon the heart there was a crying out with dread and horror and fear That the Lord might speak no more least they dye and so that which is hard upon the heart in the which by the Law which is Light sin is found that is it which is afraid to receive the Law and come near the darkness and thunders and tempests and so though many do talk of the Law being a Schoolmaster to Christ yet are they as much afraid to receive the Ministration of Condemnation as their Fathers were who might have boasted that they were the people of God and his onely chosen flock and that the Land of rest was promised to them and that they had fed upon the passover and yet they perished before they came to that which was promised who are left for an example and they might have boasted and talked much of the goodness of God and of his wonders and of his presence being with them and of their own experiences therein and that therefore they were not to come under the Ministration of Condemnation and fear and horror and trembling and astonishment and
