begot them by his Word and Power and begun a good work in them by his Light which hath turned them from the darkness they believing in it by which he will perfect it unto the end and will carry it on to his glory for ever and then they shall know evidently that he hath wrought a change in them and hath made and is making their hearts pliable to his holy will and pleasure and hath performed and is a performing his free promise in them in making them to be willing in this the day of his power manifest in them in the beauty of holiness and so holiness becomes a delight unto them as formerly they took delight and pleasure in sin and iniquity they now abbhor it and as they took pleasure in unrighteousness now they delight to do righteously and love God's own righteousness and to walk humbly with the God of their salvation and so they wait upon him to feel his pure power to break their hearts and melt them in his presence that they may always witness soft hearts tender broken and contrite and so they feel his Love which is their Life shed abroad in their hearts and this they minding of it will keep them always in a suitable frame to do and suffer the will of God and to stand and abide in his counsel And who ever thou art that art come so far let thy tryals be what they will and though they may come thick upon thee as a dark cloud and as a mighty Storm and Tempest and as an overflowing Sea and Floud thou feeling thy mind retired in the innocent state inward to feel the Power that opens thy heart and thou feeling the springs of Life stirring in thee and bubling forth into every part with its refreshing vertue of the noble and righteous Seed of eternal Life to rise up in thee therein is thy refuge and stay and safe harbor and then thou art safe as in the Arms of God and this is the Law which the Isles are to wait for and the Arm on which they are to trust and that is his eternal and everlasting Power to be renewed upon them day by day and his Love and Life raised in them and this preserves above and a top of the storms and tempests and the thick cloud will scatter and the clearness of the Son of Righteousness doth arise above all obscurity in them to the great and exceeding refreshing and comfort of their hearts with the Lamb's Power which gives the victory and the dominion over all the many tribulations and so they come to be acquainted with that in which their preservation stands which is the refuge of all the faithful servants of the living God which are acquainted with his exceeding strength to stand by them in all times of need yea in sharp temptations and sore trials and many tribulations that doth and will assault them both within and without on the right hand and on the left He that can understand may read me A word to the Wise is sufficient But it is that their Faith Hope and Patience may be tried and that they may grow in the Experience For Tribulation worketh Patience and Patience Experience and Experience Hope and Hope maketh not ashamed in the Day of the Lord which they wait and hope for which will bring them forth as gold and that they may have knowledge of the same not onely to have that which stands by them in a time of need which all men have less or more though they know it not but them that stand fast in the time of trial to have the certain knowledge by the experiment of the workings of his divine power that their Faith and Hope may stand in God and not in the best of the sons of men And therefore it must be tried by the contrary opposition yea and by something like it self and the Almighty Jehovah knows his own work which he hath wrought in every part thereof from the beginning of it and how he doth and will carry it on but this Stone is a tried stone sure and pretious therefore he will have every one that are built thereupon come to the knowledge of it in themselves that so they may stand in the strength of it in the measure received from God that they may stand faithful not onely to have Faith but to have the knowledge of it by the tryal of it that they may know the increase of it and to be full of Faith and of the knowledge of his pure Spirit that so they may walk in the Spirit and then there will not be a fulfilling the lusts of the flesh but a mortifying the deeds of the flesh by the Spirit and so the Spirit of God is the leader And as many as are led by the Spirit of God they are the Sons of God And if Sons then Heirs and Joynt-Heirs with Christ the everlasting Seed and Covenant of God in and with man And so they know their Heir-ship by the Spirit of the Son in them by which they call God Father and so they come daily to receive the Gift of the Father which is Eternal Life manifested in the Son Christ in them which is the Hope of Glory And hereby they come to the knowledge of the Lamb's Power and Seed of God's renown the blessed Root and Off-spring of David the bright and morning Star the Glory of the Saints and faithful Children of the Most High God of Heaven and Earth which is the Power that every knee must bow unto and every tongue confess to the glory of God the Father of all mercies who from the bosom of his own Love hath manifested this so great a kindness and his wonderful power which doth translate from the Kingdom of Satan into the Kingdom of his dear Son the Light of the world and Seed of the everlasting Covenant of Life In him are all the Promises Yea and Amen Much more might be said concerning the Royalty Power and Authority Dominion and Victory of the Renowned Seed and Noble Off-spring of the Lord God Almighty but it may be summoned up in this The Eternal Arm of the Lord God's Power is manifested to destroy Sin and Satan's Power in man and to bring man into obedience of the pure Power of the Lord God again by which he was created and from which he fell the Word which made all things that is near in the heart and mouth which searcheth the heart and tryes the reins and divides between the precious and the vile and cuts off the vile and preserves the precious that it may serve him for ever in the Beauty of his own Holiness without which no man shall see the Lord who is Light and Life for ever and evermore He that will understand what 's before mentioned must reade within with the Light in the Conscience which must give the knowledge of it for from the experience of the working of the Light Life and Power of God are
