and so calling upon the Name of the Lord whom they serve and obey he answereth them and gives them more Grace more Strength more Power to rule over much because they are faithful in a little and this is the profiting by the Gift the Manifestation of the Spirit that is given to every Man to profit withal without which there is no profiting nor pleasing God And this Ministry that comes in the Name of the Lord but few will hear because he comes with the Sword of the Spirit to slay that Life that lives in the fleshly Lusts that wars against the Soul but they that do hear him that comes in the Name of the Lord they do hear the Lord who saith Hear and your Souls shall live that is who do obey the Voice of the Lord they receive Power to become the Sons of God but he that is not sent of God may have the Words but not having received the Word hath but his Dream and the Words to tell who comes in his own Name that is his own Power and Wisdom and the People being in the same hear him and receive his Doctrine because he spares their Life of Pleasure in the Flesh and makes them believe they shall receive a Life of Glory after Death and that is his Dream he tells for Money and so deceives the Soul and keeps it in Death serving the Lust and so the Sin yet perswading themselves by the Help of the Hireling that they serve the Lord But no Man saith Chrst can serve two Masters especially whose Wayes are so contrary one to the other and so being taught to confess him in Words but deny him in Deeds drawing nigh with their Mouthes but the Heart is after other Lovers these having at most but a Form of Godliness but denying the Power thereof These the Children of Truth deny and turn from therefore are hated and persecuted by them whose false Religion they deny who themselves shew it to be false by their persecuting Spirit that is of Cain for Cain's Spirit can bring forth no other but Cain's Religion that ist a Worship and Sacrifice that is out of the Truth that can never please God nor ever will but it ever pleased most Men and so it doth now but we can say The Lord forgive them they know not what they do and so we must drink of our Master's Cup and be baptized with his Sufferings and so suffering with him shall reign with him World without End Amen The MARKS of the FALSE CHVRCH or Whore that brings forth by an Evil Seed the cursed Birth that never could please God I. SHE is made up of such Members who walk in Darkness and love Darkness rather then Light because their Deeds are Evil For every one that doth Evil hateth the Light neither cometh to the Light Joh. 3.20 Therefore it is clear they that walk in Darkness are Evil-doers and Evil-doers are the Members of the false Church or Whore For if any that walk in Darkness say they are Members of the Church of Christ and have not Fellowship with him they lye and do not the Truth 1 John 1.6 And so all that cannot witness in Measure Darkness to be past are still in it and Children of it II. Such who have not received the Word grafted in them yet are professing the Words but will not come to the Word of Eternal Life that gave forth the Words and being astray from that Err not knowing the Scripture nor the Power of God being out of the Faith of God's Elect that overcomes the Word which Christ the Word is the Author and Finisher of and is a Mystery held in a pure Conscience and whosoever hath not this Faith the Gates of Hell will prevail against him and his House not being built upon this Rock Christ the Word of Life in the Day of Tryal will be overturned and great will be the Fall thereof but the Foundation of God for Salvation standeth sure that is the Ingrafted Word that is able to save the Soul that dwelt richly in the Children of God in all Ages and also in this Age who were the Houshould of Faith Members of the Church in God III. To be of a Faith or Belief that is not in the Unity of the Spirit of Life but of that which Man is Author and Finisher of which he hath made and formed in the House of his Imaginary of the Words and Confessions of the Saints in Light and Children of God that were in the Faith of that they confessed and witnessed and so in the Mystery that they which have only the Words of the History cannot see nor doth that reveal it to them IV. Professing Obedience to God and Christ in Words but living in the Disobedience of his Spirit and so in Works deny him doing the Things they ought not to do and leaving the Things undone that they ought to do these love not our Lord Jesus Christ but are in the World's Love which is selfish and Enmity to God from whence proceed the Lusts that war in the Members the Fruits of the Flesh and being in the Flesh cannot please God V. Are such whose Head is a visible Man without them who takes in and puts out in his own Will and Pleasure these chuse rather to obey Man then God and cannot suffer for Righteousness sake because their Head is not Christ the Righteousness of God VI. Such in whom the Unregenerate Nature bears Rule and the Seed of the Serpent is Head and the Government of Christ is not set up within but Death through the Lusts reigns and captivates the Soul under it that it lives not to God nor brings forth Fruit of Righteousness but is the Tree that cumbreth the Ground that will be hewn down and cast into the Fire VII Are such whose Weapons of their Warfare are not Spiritual but Carnal therefore the strong Holds of Satan are standing in them who are Aliens and Strangers from the New Covenant in which is no Fighter Killer Murtherer nor Envious Wicked Person but the New Creation is witnessed in which dwelleth Righteousness the Sword turned into a Plow-share and the Spear into a pruning Hook where War is learn'd no more VIII Such who despise and neglect the Gift of God the Light that shines in their Hearts the Manifestation of the Spirit that is given to every Man to profit withal without which none can please God nor worship him as I have said but are unprofitable Servants out of the Way of God in their own Way the Way of Sinners out of the Counsel of God's Spirit in the Counsel of the Ungodly Spirit out of the Way of Light Life in the Way of Death and Darkness dead to God but alive to the World and in the Wickedness thereof IX Such who are not turned to the Spirit of Truth in which God is worshipped cannot worship him but as Christ said Ye worship ye know not what such Worshippers are all that are astray
