Now what the Father hath given in it to dwell and to mind your own g●ft every member hath a proper gift only be faithful in your gift quench not the Spirit despise not Prophecying for ye may all Prophesie one by one that all may learn ye that are weak if you have a word quench it not ye may learn for I know that your disobedience to the pure motion hath been your loss and you shall know it will be hard for you to come to your first Love but let the earth keep silence and had the earth been silent from reasoning then had God spoke forth in his Temple to his own praise in the mouth of Babes and Sucklings abide in your Tent and as you have received act and as perswaded from the Lord so walk and compare not your selves with your selves neither measure anothers measure by yours mind the motion of Life and Love and as the pure love in you moves to it yield and cease from judging one the other and dwell as Lambs and if in any thing any be otherwise minded to your measure know this he that revealed it unto thee shall reveal it unto thy Brother so grudge not one against another but let love be all in all he that abides in his measure non can harm him although the heathen rage and the Beast and the false Prophet set themselves against him he shall reign over all and the lamb shall have dominion So all dear friends into the pure fear come let the lamb govern take heed of a bitter root let simplicity be head in you that you may in the childs estate be preserved and be found with oyl in your lamps ready to enter But all you who put the day of the Lord afar off wo and misery is to you you say God shall teach his Children and mans teaching shall cease but you say it is not yet you say Christ shall reign but not yet he shall judge the quick and the dead but not yet the blind leads the blind and both falls into the ditch and darkness is your dwelling place you cannot see light from darkness day
