Glory and Majesty and of his Justice that when for one Sin he threw down the Angels those Glorious Spirits into Hell and he would take no Ransom or Redemption for them and though he hath Mercy on the Sons of Men according to his own Election or Purpose and according to that that he hath Purchased for himself in Christ Jesus before the Foundation of the World was laid yet in Time he made his Son a Sacrifice before Men and Angels to bring his Chosen Ones to Glory That he should take Pleasure to send his own Son out of his Bosom who was the Delight of his Soul and Bruise him for our Sins yet it pleased the Father to Bruise him The most Holy and Righteous God that had but One Son One only Begotten Son that was the Delight of his Soul and should take Pleasure to Bruise him that we might be Healed and laid Stripes upon him that we might be Healed Oh the Heighth and Depth Oh the Length and Breadth of the Love of God in Christ Jesus unto poor Souls Oh this is that the Angels do desire to stoop down and look into and to know more of this great Mystery of the Love of God in Christ and that God should take upon him the Nature of Man And put him into that Glorious Union with his own Son and that he should leave the Angels though Christ was made a a little lower than they for Suffering Death for us Yet now because the Nature of Man is united to the Godhead by Vertue of that Marriage and Union we become the Sons of God and Heirs of Glory Those that are Adopted by Jesus Christ are brought near to the Throne of Glory are in a High and Glorious Communion and Fellowship with the Father and Spirit owned of all the Holy Angels and therefore they do stand without the Throne as in several Places of the Revelations and round about the Elders and round those that were given to the Lamb as in the Fifth of the Revelations and many other Scriptures they stand without but there is another Company within which is the Twenty-four Elders and Four Living Creatures they fall down and worship God they are nearer than the Angels Oh! Who hath Credited who hath Believed this Report And to whom is the Arm of the Lord Revealed Oh! How many Professors are there in this Day in this Nation that call upon the Name of Christ and that say they shall be Saved by Christ and do Live and Trust most in their own Works and Righteousness and never come to the Knowledge and Understanding of this great Mystery of the Love of God in Christ Who never received those Teachings from the Anointing and according to the New Covenant where it is promised that they shall be all Taught of God all the Children of God shall be Taught of him and there is no one can Teach these but the Father none can draw them to the Son but the Father and no Man can come to the Father but through the Son And this great Mystery is both by the Light and Operation of the Holy Spirit who makes the New Creature in the Soul O that God would pour out of his Holy Spirit that God would pour out the Spirit of the New Covenant and the Spirit of the Gospel and the Spirit that can declare the Mystery of God's Word in the Spirit and that he hath made Manifest through Jesus Christ O there is much talking and speaking in the Name of Christ And how many Men spend little Time in getting Evidences in the Power and Demonstration of the Spirit and come to apprehend God in Christ that speak of him Oh! There are few of these the Lord knows O that the Anointing may be poured out more now according to this Faith in the Way of this Grace and in this Love of God even in the Electing Love of the Father and in the Redeeming Blood of Jesus Christ according to the purchased Possession that he hath obtained through his own Righteousness wherein God hath been Just also in justifying the Ungodly and among them such a poor simple Piece of Dust and Ashes as I have been and have to this Day little glorified my Father and yet I can call him Father through some Measure of his Spirit and Father according to the Spirit of Adoption too and can say the Lord Jesus hath given himself for me and I take the Lord Jesus Christ as the great Gift of the Father desiring to bear Witness of that Love and of that wonderful Grace and Glory that he hath made me Partaker of in and through him Oh! Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath called me to this Hope and who hath made me Partaker of this Glory that the Saints are Enlightened in And now I long to see the Face of this Father and of his Son though I have such a Number of Sins in me and though I have an Interest in him and can call him Father at any Time without doubt and in full Assurance of Faith in the Holy Spirit yet if Jesus Christ were not there to present me Faultless before the Presence of God I should be afraid to appear before him but he is able to do it and therefore saith the Apostle Now unto him that is able to Save you and to present you Faultless before the Presence of his Glory with exceeding Joy c. I am a poor Sinful Piece full of Iniquity laden with many Burdens that have a Body of Death that I carry about me and I am now about to lay it down and my Soul shall enter into Eternal Life and be made Perfect in a Moment through the Mighty Power of God that hath wrought that Glorious Work of raising Christ from the Dead Oh! All my Strength and all my Joy and all my Life is in Christ and in him alone And I have a Righteousness already of his Working according to his own Grace and according to his own Mighty Power and according to his own Mercy that he hath been pleased to Work in me and so hath been pleased to keep me in a very Wicked and in a very Evil Day by the Power of his Grace And I desire to glorifie my Father and many Years have I been in that Work that hath been of late in this Nation few and evil hath been the Days of my Pilgrimage but I have desired to serve the Lord with Faithfulness and in the Integrity of my Soul without Prejudice against any Creature and it hath been the Desire of my Soul to approve my self Faithful towards God and towards Man And what I have done I have done it in Obedience to the Lord that I had in my Eye and in my Heart There are many Things laid upon many of those that profess the Kingdom and Glorious Appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ as if they were Enemies to Magistracy and Ministry and as if so be we were for the
