and therefore feeling the Comforts of God's Holy Spirit with me I am willing to send these Lines amongst you that so together we may be made Living Partakers of the Renowned Mercies of our God who doth not forget to be gracious to his Children and People who wait and think upon his Name whose Name is above every Name to which every Knee must bow and confess to the Name of Jesus who is Emanuel God with us and by that measure of his Blessed Spirit given to us he is in us by which measure many have and all may know a Profiting towards God and those things that belong to their Everlasting Peace which according to the Apostles Ehortation let us all endeavour to keep with all Men. But Dear Friends let there be a moviance and particular concern for it and the preservation of it in and amongst all the Called and Gathered by the Lord to the Testimony of his Spiritual Appearance in us and therefore Dear Friends in the Love of God I beseech you all dwell that we may be a People preserved from all those hurtful things wrong and unruly Spirits that we see take so much place in some but blessed be the Lord there is an Eye open that sees the Foundation of God stands sure for ever and the Lord knows who are his People and the Sheep of his Pasture them he hath and will feed and they shall drink of the Streams of Shilo's Brooks that run softly and will refresh all the truly thirsty Souls for them the Lord hath and will fill and it is for your sakes dear Friends that the Lord opens the Sluces of his Love that you may all drink of the Streams of Living Water and be revived this day in him and comforted in one another for he will fill your Hearts with the Treasure that is Heavenly and never fades away nor wears and as you all walk in the Truth and continue in that Love which was begotten by the Truth in which Love I know you all can do no less than put a right esteem and value upon the continued Goodness and Mercies of the Lord in which Love of God none can hurt wrong or evilly entreat one another and this Love will bring and keep all things in good order amongst the Called Faithful and Chosen People of the Lord in this present Age and Day Therefore dear Friends it is my hearty desire to the Lord that all may feel this Love of God to draw their Hearts more and more to love him and that Grace and Truth that comes by Jesus Christ that so all may draw water out of the Well of Salvation and drink abundantly of the River of God's Pleasure which proceeds from under the Throne of our God and the Lamb for ever A few Lines Chiefly to the Tender Children of FRIENDS TEnder Friends There is a little with me in the Love of God to you some of which may be better qualified and more ready to receive that which is Good than others are But Tender Friends for want of a a true Regard and Consideration of the Love of God some rather give way to gratifie a vain Mind which is ready and apt to be taken with Pride and the vain Glory of this fading World which doth greatly Eclipse that Good in your first Nature that otherwise would appear more Beautiful and it doth also hinder the Good Seed that is sown in your Hearts from taking Root downward by which it should bring forth Fruit upward to the Praise of the Lord who is the Good Husbandman and therefore tender Friends all consider the Love of God that is shed abroad in many Hearts and yet runs towards you who are the Younger Generation for that end that you may all have a true Regard to the Lord and to your Tender Parents whose Tender Love and Care may be over you for good for I have many times thought it great pity that any Children should evilly treat their Parents for their Tender Love and Care towards them but since it is so as we have sometimes seen Parents may the better receive every good Caution and in the Authority of Truth keep Children in Subjection and according to the Apostles Exhortation Children will have cause to take it well they are learned when they are young to obey their Parents in the Lord for this saith he is right and therefore Tender Children incline your Hearts to love the Lord his Way and Truth and obey your Parents that live therein for although it hath happened ill with some through their Disobedience yet there is good cause to hope well for many others of you who may be a succeeding Generation of the Faithful many of which are gathered to their everlasting rest and hoping well for many we cannot but desire well for all our Children that they may be Wise and learn the Fear of the Lord which will be a Fountain of Life to preserve them from the Snares of Death and keep them from those many sorts of Evils and hurtful things which otherwise may possibly bring such an Evil Day upon them as to dishonour God grieve their Tender Parents and disappoint themselves of true Happiness here and hereafter Therefore it is again with me to say Hear and fear the Great God for there is need of renewing this Exhortation amongst some Children and young People that come amongst us And again The fear of the Lord was said to be the beginning of true Wisdom and I know many for your encouragement can confirm the Testimony that to depart from Evil will give or bring you to a good Understanding what will Become Adorn or Accomplish you as Men and Women fearing God And truly Friends all other will stand you in little or no stead as you come to love and embrace the Plain and Modest way of Truth and dwell therein And again let me tell you I know some were Educated in many things commendable amongst other Sober People yet when it pleased the Lord to open their Eyes to behold the Light of this glorious day that is sprung from on high and hath visited us to give the Light of the Knowledge of God in the face of his Son Christ Jesus we then saw that many of those things were not consistent with the Truth as it is now made manifest therefore I know some were not only willing to cast off forsake and deny but desirous to be stript of all that they might be Cloathed with the Heavenly Robe of Righteousness and wear those Garments that they so often heard recommended by the Servants of the Lord which you may all wear as you take heed to the Sanctifying Word of Life in your own Hearts which the Apostle recommends as that most sure Word of Prophecy which says he You will all do well to take heed unto as unto a Light that shines in a dark place till the day dawn and Day-Star arise in your Hearts which blessed be the Lord many in our
