of God and out of the true Faith and out of the Spirit of Truth and so out of the Worship of God And in this Estate they are alienated from the Life of God and Strangers to the Covenant of Promise even Strangers unto the Law of God which is Light written in the Heart and so in this estate they are Darkness Now Children although you be darkness yet the Light shines in the Darkness as saith the Scripture and the Darkness cannot Comprehend it the Darkness cannot shut up the Light that is plain to your Understandings For the Light breaks through the Darkness and sheweth unto you your darkness and shines into your hearts to give you the kn●wledge of the Glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ So that which may be known of God is manifested in you for God hath shewed it unto you Therefore Children ye should not seek nor look out nor search in your own Thoughts to find out the Knowledge of God for the World by their Thoughts and Wisdom know not God But the Lord God is nigh unto every one of you for to shew unto you your Thoughts for he knoweth your Thoughts and none of them can be withheld from him and he that declareth unto man what his Thoughts are the Lord of Hosts is his Name so Children take notice of that which sheweth you your Thoughts for that is the Lord. And it was prophesied concerning Christ That he should be a Light to lighten the Gentiles that the Thoughts of many Hearts may be revealed and again The Word discerneth the Thoughts and the Intents of the Heart So Children there is something in you that makes manifest your bad Words and your bad Deeds and your bad Thoughts unto you and reproveth you for them Now all things that are reproved they are made manifest with the Light as saith the Scriptures For whatsoever doth make Manifest the same is Light And God is Light who said to him that thought God to be such a one as himself I will reprove thee and set thy sins in order before thy eyes and they that would have none of Gods reproof they were the stubborn children whom God the Light brought his Judgments upon therefore take heed of rejecting that which doth reprove you for sin And again the Scripture saith of the Spirit of Truth That he shall reprove the World of Sin of Righteousness of Judgment Christ the Word he for Sin condemned Sin in the flesh So take notice of that which makes manifest reproves and condemns you for Sin for that i● God or Christ or the Spirit which are but One. Now Children there are but two Grounds or Powers from whence all Peoples Deeds arise and by which all People are acted or led that is to say the Ground of Truth and the Ground of Unrighteousness ●nd the Power of God and the Power of Satan which is the Devil who abode not in the Truth And there is the Spirit of God and the Spirit of Error Now the Ground and Power and Spirit of Truth are of one Nature which is the DIVINE NATURE and the Ground and Power and the Spirit of Error they are also one in their Natures which is the Cursed Nature and these Natures are contrary one to the other Now they that Act any manner of Unrighteousness it ariseth from the Unrighteous Ground and they are moved acted and led in all Unrighteous Actions that they Act by the Power of Satan the Spirit of Error And they that act any thing that is Just and Right in the sight of God it ariseth from the Ground of Truth and they are moved acted and led in all such Actions by the Power and Spirit of God Now these Powers or Natures or Spirits being contrary one to another oppose one another and thus Children ye may come to know that it is so and discern it by the Light which makes manifest all Words Actions and Motions For when ye have disobeyed your Parents or them that have the Rule over you in any thing that ye ought not or when ye have done any Evil then ye have been acted by Satan his Power and then the Power of God hath moved in you against the Evil that you have committed and then many times with the Spirit of Truth you have seen that you have done amiss and have been troubled for it And when you have told a Lye the Devil hath begotten that in you for he is the Father of all Lyes and then the Light of God's Spirit hath often times shewed unto you your Lye and hath condemned you for it And thus the Spirit and Power of God Opposeth the Power and Spirit of Satan in all things that Satan begets in you and moveth and leadeth you to do for the Spirit and Power of God moves and stirs against every moving and stirring of the Power and Spirit of Satan and calls you from the evil to refrain and not to joyn to the Evil Motions but to the good And likewise where the Spirit and Power of Satan is not yet limited or destroy'd Mark when the Power and Spirit of God begets any tender Desires or stirrings or movings in you after Truth and Righteousness then the Power and Spirit of Satan moves and stirs in you against them and seeks to draw your Minds from that which is good into that which is evil And thus you may plainly see that the light hath no fellowship with the darkness nor the darkness with the light for the Spirit and Power of God is Light and the Spirit and Power of Satan is Darkness and these are contrary one to each other in all things And they that joyn to to the Darkness and believe in it they by it continue or are made Children of Darkness and so of the Devil And they that joyn to the Light and believe in it they by it are made or continue Children of the Light and so of God Now Children there is a day of Visitation if ye slight it not which the Lord God giveth you wherein you may come to witness this Word of God in making you his children through his Workings and Operations of his Eternal Spirit But if ye let slip the Day of your Visitation and continue resisting the Workings of the Spirit and harden your selves against the Reproof of the Lo●d then the Spirit of the Lord will cease striving with you and ye will be shut up in Darkness Therefore whilst ye feel something which convinceth you of Sin and Evil take heed unto that for that which lets you see that ye should not lye nor swear nor be proud nor wild nor disobedient to your Parents in any lawful thing that they command you nor act any manner of Unrighteousness whatsoever This is the Manifestation of the Spirit which is given you to profit withal or the true Light of God or Christ who are one And this ye should mind r●joyn unto when it convinceth you and to abide
