feeling of his sad and miserable condition is arising in him and the witnesse of God reproving him and calling him from his abominations and whoredoms and many times brings him into some trouble yet he sleights his love and hates the reproof and goes on in his rebellious wayes and so treasures up to himself wrath against the day of wrath and revellation of the righteous judgement of God who will render a just reward unto him according to his deeds and here lies all the ungodly world driven from God out of his Covenant out of his peace out of his presence out of his pure love and spiritual worship and are loving and delighting in and worshiping the creature more then the Creator But the Saints and holy men of God who came to witnesse redemption and were in Covenant with God and faith of his Son had passed from death to life and they had put of the body of sin and the old man and his deeds and were created anew being born again of the eternall word which liveth and abideth for ever and their hearts was purified and their consciences purged from dead works and ther bodies made fit Temples holy and pure for the Lord God to dwell in and there was his worship in the spirit in his holy Temple where there is no need of Sun Moon or of Candle but the glory of the Lord fils the Temple and this they witnessed who were redeemed from the earth and were in Christ Jesus where there union joy and fellowship was where there is neither Greek nor Jew circumsition nor uncircumsition Barbarian Scythian bond nor free but Christ is all and in all and the same is the Lord our God now working and bringing to passe even by his own power and outstretched arm is he getting himself the victory what we are we are of and by him he alone it is that worketh in us both to will and to do by his own power made manifest in us and worketh mightily in us whereby wee are made willing to do his will and work and this is all by his Son who of God is made wisdom justification sanctification and redemption he is made unto us all things and through him we can do all things even through the Son of God whom we know is come and hath given us an understanding to know him that is true and wee are in him that is true even in his Son Jesus Christ who is our life our joy our stay and strength by whom we are freed from sin and from our vain conversations which formerly we lived in who hath broken the bond of iniquity and set the oppressed free to praise and glorify his name who alone do praise him the dead cannot praise him it is the living the living that praises him to whom be everlasting praises and glory world without end Amen So I say and declare that if any man say he hath no sin before he come to confesse his sin and to witnesse the power of God cleansing him from his sin he doth dec●ive himself and the witnesse of God in his own conscience will testify against him and be his condemnation But where the living power of God is made manifest to purify and cleanse and to destroy the works of the devil to burn up and consume the old heavens and the old earth which is cursed and brings forth cursed fruits I say where the old is destroyed and the new heaven and the new earth witnessed wherein dwells righteousness Shall we deny the work of God Not far be it from us but to declare his marvailous works which he hath wrought in our dayes to ages and generations to come that they may dread and fear the name of our God and to others who sit in darknesse and in the shadow of death who are wandring astray as sheep without a Shepherd and are feeding upon the husk and spending their money for that which is not bread and their labour for that which doth not satisfy freely from the bowels of tender love to their soules do we declare what the Lord hath done for our soules that they might return home into the Fathers house where there is bread enough to satisfy the hungry thirsting soul that every one may eat their own bread and sit under their own vine and have union and feilowship with us in our fathers love for evermore So in the name of the Lord I do warn all people who read these lines to repent and cease from all their sins and abominations which formerly they have lived in and from all the false and Idolatrous worships of the world which a long time ye have followed and thereby have been deceived and led captive laden with sin but have not come to the true knowledg of God but are still in their old crooked and perverse nature and knows not the Crosse of Christ nor the yoke nor the bridle to the tongue but are at ease in the flesh and can speake their own words and think their own thoughts and do their own works I say return return and hearken diligently to the voyce of the Son of God which cryes for purity and holinesse without which none can see God that thereby your soules may live and may feed upon the dayly bread in the Fathers bosome which whosoever eats of this bread shal never hunger and he that drinks of this cup shall never thirst but it shall be a well of living water springing up unto eternal life so every one wayt in the measure of light which from Christ you have received for the appearance of Christ in you that his life may be made manifest in your mortal bodies for this is the command of God This is my beloved Son hear him and Christ the Son calls and says Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden take my yoke upon you and learn of me I am meek and lowly in spirit and you shall find rest to your soules So all people come freely his love is freely tendred to you sleight not the tender profers of his love but come forth and separate your selves and touch no unclean thing and the Lord will receive you and will be a Father unto you and you shall be his Sons and Daughters mind the pure and still voyce that thereby you may be led into the pure life and pure union and love of the children of light for if you neglect such great salvation woe will be your portion for ever There ore whi●e you have the light believe in the light and work while it is day before the dreadfull night of darkness come when none can work By one who hath seen the deadness and emptiness of all the formal worships and formal profession that stands in the will of man act d in mans will who is returned back into his fathers house and there dwels in rest and peace and hath ceased from his own work written forth in the bowels of love to captive and weary
