Eternity in the presence of his eternal spiritual person I declare from the Lord Jesus that God the Creator hath made that creation in the heavens above as visible to be seen as this creation is seen in this earth beneath Again I declare from the holy Spirit that the glorious person of the onely wise God and eternal Father the Lord Jesus is as visibly seen of the creatures where his person is resident as a man is visibly seen of the creatures in this earth beneath where his person resides as for this creation in the heavens above it is to set forth the glory of his immortal person that all the creatures in his presence visibly beholding the glorious person of their Creator both holy Angels and other creatures according to their wisdom or understanding might give him the glory of their eternal happinesse of this their creation and on the contrary if the Creator were not visibly seen by the eyes of his creatures then no creatures could possibly know him to return any praise or glory unto him at all for the happiness of their condition Therefore it is a cursed lying imagination for any man to think that the glorious person of God is not as visibly seen of his creatures in the heavens above as the person of man who is the image of God is visibly seen of the creatures in this earth beneath Again you must not think after a fleshly manner that the creatures above the starrs are male and female for natural generation as they are in this creation beneath the starrs for a woman had never been made but for generation that the immortal God might have a womans womb in this world to cloath himself with flesh and that the Reprobate Angel which is the Devil might have the womb of a woman to cloath himself with flesh also to bring forth Gods glorious design between the seed of the Woman and the seed of the Serpent wherefore I declare from the holy Spirit that the holy Angels and all other Creatures that are in the presence of God in the Creation beyond the stars are all spiritual male creatures never encreasing in their numbers not being fleshly desiring generation but their spirits or natures instead of fleshly pleasures in generation are full of spiritual and heavenly joyes of a more transcendent glorious content within themselves and visible glorious contents in their beholding of the glorious face of God and the faces of one another and the glory of that place they enjoy the which exceeding glory shineth forth through that heavenly Kingdom from the bright burning glorious person of God the Creator the Lord Jesus Christ who alone hath all the glory of his Creation in the Heavens above wherein dwelleth nothing but righteousnesse in Glory Again I declare from the Lord Jesus that no man can understand or know any thing of these things that are invisible unto our natural eyes but by the Spirit of Revelation therefore it is written that faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen again it is written through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear so that in the Letter of the Scripture it is clear to you that see by the eye of Faith that God hath made or framed two Worlds or two Creations which is all one for you know to frame a thing or to make a thing is all one Again unto you it is clear there are spiritual visible things in that world above or beyond the stars as well as here are natural visible things in this world beneath the stars because you may understand that this world and the things that are visible therein were made or created out of that world which is invisible to us who are in mortality but visible to those who are above in glory so that now you that are appointed to enter with spiritual bodies into that glorious Creation or world beyond the stars may understand a little clearer of your inheritance in that Kingdome made without hands or City eternal in the Heavens where you shall visibly see with your eyes the face of God Men Angels and all Creatures in that creation above the stars as you see the face of man and all other creatures in this creation beneath the stars with glorious new Songs of spiritual and heavenly praises unto a glorious God to all eternity This proves the truth of these Scriptures where it is written My kingdom is not of this world and of this saying Lord remember me when thou comest into thy Kingdom and of that saying In my Fathers House or Kingdom are many mansions and of that saying For thine is the Kingdom the power and the glory for ever and of that saying The Kingdoms of this world are become the Kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ this world was the Heavens above and of that saying neverthelesse we look for a new Heaven and a new Earth wherein dwelleth righteousnesse and of that saying He hath made us Kings and Priests unto God and we shall reign with him upon the Earth This is that glorious new Heaven and new Earth in the presence of God above or beyond the stars but blind carnal hypocrites imagine that Gods reigning with his Elect ones will be upon this bloody Earth because they have no spiritual Eyes to see or know that new Heaven or new Earth above or beyond the stars where nothing but pure righteousness reigneth in glory for everlasting or world without end Amen 5. AGain concerning that Serpent before-said so called of the Lord for his subtilty I declare by Revelation from the holy Spirit that God created his spiritual person more glorious then the persons of all the holy Angels that are in the presence of God in Heaven because this mighty Angel by the wisdom and secret Counsel of God was to be as a God to bring forth his seed or generaration of wise and prudent subtile Serpent men and women to oppose the Creator and his innocent seed or generation of simple plain-hearted men and women that are of the spirit of faith and pure love with all other heavenly vertues for the nature or Spirit of God is faith and love and all other divine vertues infinitely living in his glorious Person the which faith is all power of righteous actings naturally flowing from his pure spirit as from a pure overflowing fountain of living waters but on the contrary the nature or spirit of this God-like Angel and all the rest of the holy Angels in their Creation were pure reason from whence naturally flows no good at all but what comes into them continually by Revelation from that pure spirit of Faith in the person of God their Creator and this is that spiritual Manna that keeps the holy Angels natures or spirits pure in the presence of God for it is the nature of that pure reason
everlasting world without end Thus it is clear to the understanding of all those that are appointed to know the true God the man Jesus unto life Eternal that there is no true Ministry in the World because they teach not the true God unto the people therefore as it is written they are blind leaders of the blind therefore they must needs both fall into the Ditch Oh! it is an eternal Ditch These are those Merchants of the Letter of the Scripture that make the blind Nations their prey these are those ravening Wolves that come in sheeps cloathing these are those dumb dogs in spiritual things that bark a● true Prophecy and heavenly revelation that a man d●clares by Commission from the Lord Jesus these are those that the Apostle Paul complained on in his time that bewitched the people to turn from the spiritual Gospel to the legal form who began by the Apostle in the spirit but were deluded by false Hypocrites to be made perfect in the flesh these were of those Hypocrites that were in Christs time who under pretence of long prayers devour Widows houses these are those hypocrites that are always teaching of God what he should do for his own glory when indeed it is their own glory in lusting after things that perish they desire when they thus pray or preach or prate these are those bloody hypocrites and workers of iniquity that the Lord Jesus will never own because he never sent them X. AGain I declare by revelation from the Holy Spirit that there is no Magistrate in this world that bears the name of Christian that hath any Authority or Commission from the Lord Jesus to set up any visible form of Worship whatsoever to compel the spirits or consciences of men to how down to his image that he had set up for his own glory because ever since the Lord Jesus ascended into his glory he alone is the Teacher of all his Elect by his Holy Spirit it is truth in the time of the Law before God became flesh there were many Magistrates and Priests commissionated from the Lord to set up and to declare the true Worship of God unto all Israel and it was death by the command of the Lord if the people despised to yield obedience unto it because it was the Lords Worship and no● mans worship set up from his own lying imagination that would be a God but he is a devil for his creating of a Worship to deceive the people without a Commission from the Lord and by taking the prerogative power and glory of God to himself who will not give his glory to another as it is written therefore in the Revelation the Dragon there spoken of is the imagination of the Beast and the Beast is the body of the Magistrate wherein that Dragon imagination liveth and the false prophet there spoken of is the Magistrates Priest and the Image of the Beast is that false worship set up by the imagination of the Magistrate and the serpent-counsel of his false prophet or Priest to deceive themselves and the people with them therefore it is written And all that dwell upon the Earth shall worship him whose names are not written in the Book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the World that is all Reprobates both rich and poor shall bow down unto that false idolatrous worship set up by Heathen Magistrates and their Heathen false prophets the National Priests who call themselves Christian Magistrates and Christian Ministers and are blindly called so by the people also and yet both of these Devils together persecute with the sword of steel all spiritual Christians under the name or title of Blasphemers Seducers Heresie Deceivers of the people and such like because the spiritual Christian cannot bow down unto that carnal Antichristian formal worship set up by those carnal Magistrates and their carnal Ministers beforesaid who being both lovers of the glory of this world loving to be honoured as gods for that cursed heathenish idol-worship from their own invention set up to deceive themselves and those appointed to damnation with them wherefore the Dragon Magistrate and the false Prophet his Serpent-Ministers that committed spiritual fornication together and all those of their own spirits shall every one of them in the day of the Lords vengeance burn in their spirits and bodies together as a lake of fire those spirits and bodies that they shall appear with in the Resurrection shall be that lake of spiritual fire and brimstone that by the decree of the Lord Jesus shall burn together to all eternity this is that giving her own blood to drink who eat up the innocent as bread and thought they did God good service in shedding of the blood of the Lambs of Jesus as their forefathers did then will these Scriptures be fulfilled And those mine enemies that would not that I should reign over them bring them and slay them before me And Go ye cursed into everlasting fire And the Carcasses of the Rebels shall be cast out where the worm never dies and the fire never goes out And Tophet is ordained of old for the King That Tophet is the body of man and that King is the spirit of unclean reason in man for behold the day cometh that shall burn as an Oven and all the proud yea and all that do wickedly shall be stubble and the day that cometh shall burn them up saith the Lord of Hostes and ye shall tread down the wicked for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this saith the Lord of Hosts Fill yee up the measure ●f your Fathers ye Serpents ye generation of Vipers how can ye escape the damnation of Hell for he shall have Judgment without mercy that hath shewed no mercy but the fearful and unbelieving and the abominable and Murtherers Whoremongers and Sorcerers or Astrologers and Idolaters and all lyars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone which is the second death Again the bloody persecutors beforesaid instead of feeding and cloathing the hungry Saint quite contrary they do not only take away the food and rayment of the Lord Jesus in his Elect innocent Lambs but they crucifie the Lord of life afresh in the shedding of the blood of his Believers because they yield obedience to the spiritual Law of faith and love or command of the Lord Jesus either by Prophecying or writing or speaking the Truth by command from the man Jesus who is the only spiritual Magistrate and Minister unto all that are appointed unto eternal glory with him in that glorious Creation of that new Heaven and new Earth above the stars when this creation beneath the stars is utterly destroyed and fitted only for persecuting Dragon-Serpent-Devils to lament howl and weep to all eternity upon this earth where the Saints by them were put to grief for a moment XI BUt some may say unto me do you not
new life of a glorious encrease both spiritual and natural so that death in its place is as useful for the Creators raising of glory to himself as life is in its place this proves the truth of these Scriptures He poured out his soul unto death again The soul that sins shall die again He c●yed with a loud voyce and gave up the ghost again In the day thou eatest thereof thou shalt die the death again His soul was made an offering for sin again He was put to death in thy flesh and quicked in the spirit I know I have written enough to satisfie in the proof of this truth all spiritual Christians XIV AGain it is written and those that sleep in Jesus shall rise first that is those that fell asleep in the believing of the visible coming of the glorious person of the Lord Jesus in the clouds of Heaven in power and great glory their bodies shall be raised first out of the sleep of death because they were united by faith unto the person of their Lord Jesus who was the first that ever rose from the dead by his own power who raised life in death or out of death therefore he was called the first fruits of the resurrection or of life from death again you that see by faith m●y understand that not the same bodie● that died or fell asleep shall appear any more at all then the body of wheat doth as beforesaid which Paul fitly compareth together in their resurrection where it is written but God giveth it a body as it pleaseth him and to every seed his ●wn body that is as beforesaid that grain or body of wheat that died quickened a new life out of death and brought forth in a glorious manner in due season many bodies of the same form of that that dyed and yet that body that died appeared no more so likewise it shall be with all that died in the faith of Jesus not the same bodies or persons they lived in and died in shall appear again any more but that spirit of faith mixt with pure love and all other spiritual vertues that were in their former bodies by the which they died unto the power of sin and lived unto the power of righteousnesse that divine seed of faith sowed in the former body died with the first body immediately quickned a new life out of death by the decree of the Lord Jesus for you know there is no time now unto God nor unto them that are dead and so brought forth a spiritual body in its ●orm like unto that in the dust yea of a body of pure righteousness the same nature of that holy spiritual faith that raised it out of death yea a glorious body brighter then the Sun in its strength and as swift as thought yea bodies of such a bright burning glory that no persecuting Canaanites can behold and live because our spirits and bodies according to our faith and shall be made like unto the glorious body of God the man Jesus the which no man in mortality with his natural eye can behold and live then shall all the Elect in the twinkling of an eye both those that slept in the dust and those that are alive at that time whose bodies also shall be changed like unto those that slept then I say they shall all ascend together as one body to meet their Head the Lord Jesus in the Aire and with their King they shall enter into his Kingdom of eternal glory where that new Heaven and new Earth are beforesaid there with holy Angels to behold the glorious face of the only wise God and everlasting Father the Lord Jesus Christ with new glorious songs and praises unto their Redeemers that was dead as it is written to redeem us by his precious blood from eternal death and now behold be liveth for evermore therefore we eternally live with him XV. AGain I declare by revelation from the Holy Spirit that when the Elect are thus glorified they are absolutely of the very same glorious nature both in spirit and body as God is as God and they were both of one nature in mortality sin only excepted wherefore as the spirit of faith and love infinitely in the glorious person of God overfloweth as a fountain continually with revelation of new Heavenly wisedom from whence flows new joys and glory to himself and the holy Angels so shall every Believer according to his degree in glory be as a Well springing up unto everlasting life of revelation of new wisedom from whence flows new joys and glory within his own person like unto his God only they shall naturally returne the glory and praise unto their fountain the Lord Jesus for this their exaltation upon the glorious Throne of his own likenesse for it is the righteous actings and sufferings that was in the innocent body of the Lord Jesus when the was in mortality that by his infinite wisedom is made naturally that glorious fire to kindle new Revelation of Heavenly wisdom with in his body for the increase of his glory to all eternity as beforesaid so likewise all those righteous actings and sufferings for truth sake that were acted and suffered in our former bodies by the appointment of our God shall be conveyed into our new spritual bodies that are like unto our God and shall be that glorious fire naturally to kindle revelation of new wisedom from whence flows glorious new songs and praises unto our Redeemer the fountain of all our glory for everlasting world without end as abundantly beforesaid then shall these Scriptures be fulfilled to him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne even as I also overcame and am set down with my Father in his throne Again and he that overcometh and keepeth my words unto the end to him will I give power over the Nations and be shall rule them with a Rod of iron as the vessels of a Potter shall they be broken to shivers even as I received of my Father and I will give him the morning star Again him that overcometh will I make a Pillar in the Temple of my God and he shall go no more out and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the City of my God which is new Jerusalem which cometh down out of Heaven from my God and I will write upon him my new name Again he that overcometh shall inherit all things and I will be his God and he shall be my son Again henceforth I will not drink of this fruit of the Vine until that day I drink it new with you in my fathers Kingdom Again and from Jesus Christ who is the faithful witnesse and the first begotten of the dead and the Prince of the Kings of the Earth Unto him that hath loved us as washed us from our sins in his own blood and hath made us Kings and Priests unto God and his Father to him be glory and dominion for
