or Incarnation of Jesus Christ is become a powerful Substance or Matter to us for for our sakes is God become Man that he might bring our Humanity out of Death into himself and redeem or release our Soul out of the Fire of God's anger And we now with good ground of truth say that the possibility of the New-birth is in all men else God were divided and not in one place as he is in another And herein we exactly know that man is drawn by the Fire and the Light●… to which he inclineth into that he falleth and yet he may in this Life-time rise aloft again Also we say that the true Temple wherein the holy Ghost preacheth is in the new birth The Spiri●… also testifieth clearly that Angels and Men have one and the same Image for God hath made another Angel instead of expulsed Lucifer and his Legions out of the same place where Lucifer sate and out of which he was made which Angel was Adam But seeing he stood no●… therefore God generated to himself a second Adam out of the first the same is called Jesus Christ. Also it is plain and clear enough that as Jesus ascended to Heaven so he will come again in the same Form at the last Day with a divine and glorified Body as a Prince of the holy Angels which shall be the men Angels Also we know the becoming Man or Incarnation of Christ to be natural as of all the Children of men the Lord gave himself to be under the Servant that the Servant might become living and is in like manner in nine Months become a perfect man and also continueth a true God become born into the world through that way and passage as all men are Had he not had a natural Soul then he had not in the Person had all the three Principles What should he then have committed into the Hands of his Father at that present when he dyed on the Cross Or what had suffered on the Cross if he had not been natural The earthly part which he took to himself out of his Mother Mary that is to or upon the divine Substance dyed away on the Cross. Thus was the Soul in the Substantiality of God and as 〈◊〉 victorious conquering Prince went into the Hell of Devils that is into God's Anger and quenched it with God's Love and Meeknes●… of the divine Substantiality For the Love-Fire came into the Anger-Fire and drown●… the Anger wherein the Devil would be God thus was the Devil taken cap●…ive with the Darkness and lost his dominion The Spirit of Christ took the Devil captive and drove him out of the Fire of the Soul and cast him into Darkness and shut him up under darkness out from the Fire of the Soul and out from God's fire into the wrathful harshness and bitterness in Cold. Consider the first four Forms of Nature and you will understand what the Devil's Mansion is for before Christ came he kept the Soul captive in the Turba with the Fire and though he had not the Spirit of the Soul yet he had the Root of it in the Turba but then he was commanded to cease While the earthly man liveth the Soul is continually in hazard or danger for the Devil hath enmity with who continually casteth forth his streams with false and wicked Imaginations into the Stary and Elementary Spirit and reacheth or graspeth therewith after the Soul's fire and willeth continually to infect the same with earthly Devils longing and malady There must the noble Image defend it self against the Souls fire and there it costeth striving and fighting sor the Angels Garland there riseth up often in the old Adam anguish doubting and unbelief when the Devil sets upon the Soul. O thou Cross of Christ how heavy art thou often times how doth the Hèaven hide it self but so the noble Grain is sown when that is sprung up then it brings forth much fair Fruit in Patience Thus every little Sprout groweth in the Soul out of the divine Wisdom It must all press forth out of the Anguish-Chamber as a Sprout out of the Root of a Tree it is all generated in the Anguish If a man will have divine knowledge he must very many times go into the A●…gitish-Chamber into the centre for every Sparkle of the divine Wi●… Skill or Understanding out of God's wisdom must become generated out of the centre of Nature else it is not perminent or eternal Thus we must aell dye in Christ's Death if we will possess his Glory God and Man is become one Person one Christ one God one holy Trinity in the Humanity and also in like mann●… every where so that when we see Christ we see the holy Trinity in one only Image He is not strange or tyrable to us but is our Love. Tincture he is with his Power the quickning of our Soul●… our Life and our Souls delightful Habitation When we find him we find our Help or Salvation as in like manner A●…am should have found him but he suffer●… himself to be seduced and found at length a Woman Then said he She 〈◊〉 Flesh of my Flesh and Bone of my Bo●… and took her unto him for a Companion So when our Soul findeth him it saith That is my Virgin which I had lost in Adam when an earthly Woman came to be out of it I have now again found my Love-Virgin out of my Love I will never more let it go from me again O! it is a friendly qualifying or co-working Beauty Brightness Fruit Power V●…rtue For in thè Wisdom the Fall was known e'er man became a Creature and that according to the ●…ire's property not according to the Light 's property but according to the first Principle And we say of Mary that before the time of the opening and message of the Angel she was such a Virgin 〈◊〉 Eve was when she went out of Paradise e'er Adam knew her Of Metals and of the Metaline Tincture and Philos●… Stone THe Metals have the same ●…bstance condition 〈◊〉 birth or geniture as the Vegetab●… upon 〈◊〉 Earth have in Earth in Stones and Metals there is ●…-fold Essence viz. one from the original of the fire dark World and 〈◊〉 of the original of the holy lig●… World. All this was given man for his play he had 〈◊〉 knowledge of all Tinctures All was subject to him he ruled in Heaven and Earth and over all the Elements so also over all the Constellations But Metals are in themselves nothing else but a Water and Oyl which are held by the wrathful Properties viz. by the astring●…nt austeer desire that is by a saturnine martial fiery Property in the compaction of Sulpher and Mercury to be one Body or congealed bulk but if I whoily destroy this Body and severize each into its own Property then I clearly find therein the first Creation Gold Silver and precious Mettals are indeed out of the heavenly Magia thus inclosed and shut up by or with the
