SWEARING DENYED IN THE New Covenant And its pretended foundation RASED VVith the remnant of lies swept away And the great and glorious name of Jesus highly exalted above every name to which powerful Name all Swearers and false Swearers and Lyars Fighters Plotters and Persecutors who are in the strife against the Son of God must bow and submit or be broken in pieces for his wrath is kindled and his glittering sword is whet to take vengeance of all those that will not have him to reign over them in Truth and Righteousnesse to the glory of God the Father By Morgan Watkins LONDON Printed for Robert Wilson at the Sign of the Black-Spread-Eagle and Windmill in Martins Le-Grand Swearing denyed in the New Covenant and its pretended Foundation rased with the Remnant of lyes swept away JEsus Christ the same yesterday and to day and for ever him hath God the Father highly exalted and given him a name which is above every Name that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow c. and that every tongue should confesse that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father Phil. 29.10.11 Now if he be Lord wherein is he honoured is it not in obeying his Commands and doing the thing that he saith as he saith concerning the disobedient Why call you me Lord Lord and do not the things which I say so it appeareth he that obeyes him not hath nothing to do to call him Lord for he whom he obeyes is his Lord as it s written his Servants ye are whom ye obey he only enters the Kingdome that doth the will of the Father and this is the will of the Father that we should hear his Son For this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased heare ye him of him Moses Prophesied saying him shall ye heare in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you and every soul that will not hear that Prophet shall be destroyed from among the people Act. 3.22 23.

Into which those that are gathered and fly unto are safe for his presence and Power is felt in the middest of them and his glorious voice is heard in Sion where he raigneth let the people tremble at his great and terrible Name for it is holy and great in Sion and he is high above all people Therefore exalt the Lord our God and worship at his holy Hill for the Earth shall know we are his people and the Sheep of his Pasture and his truth into which we are gathered shall be exalted to all Generations but the way of the wicked shall be turned upside down and that vain worship that teaches for Doctrines the Commandments of men Mat 15.9 These be the blind guides that lead the blind people into the ditch but Christ teacheth his Disciples to beware of their leaven that was their Doctrine which then would have made voyd the commands of God and now would make voyd or of no effect the Commands of his Son whom the Father hath given for a Commander to his people and he that obeyes him not shall be cut off from his people but his Sheep heare his voyce and keep his sayings who saith swear not at all And herein is he acknowledged to be Lord by the doing of the thing he saith Luk. 6.46 and this is to the glory of God the Father who hath highly exalted him and given him a Name above every Name above Abraham above Moses above David above the Prophets and above the Angels above every tongue of men Angels that have sworn who must bow to his Commands who saith swear not at all and confess that he is Lord of Lords and King of Kings to the glory of God the Father who saith every knee shall bow and let all the Angels of God worship him whose throne is for ever and ever A Scepter of righteousness is the Scepter of thy Kingdome Heb. 1.6.8 who said Lo I come to do thy will O God he taketh away the first that he may establish the second Heb. 10.9 Now that which was an ordinance in old time he taketh away saying it hath been said by them of old time thou shalt not for-swear thy self but shalt perform unto the Lord thy Oaths this of old was a service of God under the first Covenant which was of works to swear and perform their oaths this was a work acceptable to God But the second Covenant being established upon better premises wherin God freely gave his own Son to be his Salvation to the ends of the Earth to bring that forth in man which he requireth of him By writing his Law in his heart and putting his words in his inward parts whereby he comes to know the Lord and be taught of him to know himself to be nothing but what he is in and through him who hath all power So of our selves we can do nothing therefore we cannot properly swear being not our own Mark nor of abillity to perform of our selves any good thing much less an Oath to the Lord for we who are come into the true rest are not to think our own thoughts nor speak our own words for Christ commanded to take no thought for our life what to eat or drink or put on because we have not power of ourselves to add to ourselves for which of you by taking thought can add one Cubit to his Stature therefore take no thought or promise to your selves nor swear to do this or that or the other for the power is in another by whom you draw your breath Therefore we cannot promise any thing absolutely being not our own nor born of the will of man then how can we swear that stand not in our own wills but in the will of him who saith swear not at all for the Apostle James reproveth absolute promising without relation to him who hath the power go to now ye that say To day and to morrow we will do such a thing James 4.13 Whereas ye know not whether ye shall live till to morrow
