examples to the people but these are evil examples and walk contrary both to the Scriptures and the practise of Christ and his true Ministers herein they shew the spirit of errour and are enemies to the Truth of God 4. They are men-pleasers all the Priests of the world and have mens persons in admiration because of advantage denying the Faith of our Lord Jesus Christ Iames 2.1 2. Gal. 1.10 which the true Ministers of Christ did practise herein they walk contrary to the Scripture and shew the Spirit of errour and are enemies to the truth of God 5. The Priests of the World or the Ministers of man and of Antichrist they are blamable and are soon angry and are given to wine strikers and are given altogether to filthy lucre Jer. 23.26 27 28 29 30 31 32.

The two Seeds one of the Flesh and the other of the Spirit contrary to the Ministers of Christ as in Titus 1.7 1 Tim. 3.1 2 3. walking contrary to the Scripture and are guided by the spirit of error 6. The Priests of the world and their Ministry is not of God but of man they are the Ministers of man and not of God and are no Ministers of the Spirit but are of the imaginary wayes what they do conceive of or imagine that they hold forth and know not the word of life which is eternal that sanctifieth and purifieth Soul and Body which word is invisible and is as a fire and a hammer and is quick and powerfull which is the power of God that killeth the old nature and purgeth out the old leaven and raiseth up the immortal Soul out of death to praise the Lord. And they that do Administer it are cleansed and washed justified and sanctified by it which word endureth for ever being the ingrafted word that is able to save the souls of those that know the Ministration of it and the Ministers of it were and are able Ministers of the Spirit not taught of man but by the will of God and administer to that which is kept in the death the immortal seed which the Ministers of the world are ignorant of but are persecuters of those that hold forth the word of life now as the Jews and Scribes and Pharisees chief Priests and Elders of the people were and they speak a divination of their own brain and not from the mouth of the Lord and their Ministry will never satisfie nor purifie one soul it hath been long but here is no redemption nor Sanctification by it Nay they say themselves that it will never sanctifie them whilst they are here and by their fruits it doth so appear and so it doth not profit the people at all they teach for Doctrine traditions and rudiments of the world and they are all confused so many men so many minds when as the Ministers of Christ were and are all of one heart and one minde who were taught of God and are Ministers of the Spirit and not of the letter or of man as the Priests of the world and all those here in York-shire are and are contrary both to Christ and his true Ministers and load his Servants with Reproachings and Revilings and are Enemies both to him and his and they and their Ministry is accursed for it is contrary both to Christ and his Apostles and doth neither sanctifie nor purifie but keeps in the lust of the flesh and in the fall There are two seeds one after the flesh as Ishmael was and the other after the Spirit and by promise as Isaac was and they that are after the flesh they persecute them that are after the spirit and they that are after the spirit or by promise are made not onely to believe but also to suffer what the Lord shall permit or see good and they that are of the promised seed are of Abraham now and are born again one Seed one Faith one God one Father one Baptism one Bread one Body all one and in one Baptized by one Spirit into that one body which is spiritual and made to drink into one Spirit and their faith doth purifie them and worketh them out of their old nature and ingrafteth them into the Vine which is Christ Jesus the Vine of the Lords free love and being all one in Christ Jesus set and ingrafted into their own Vine the natural branches being cut off those that are Jews outward and not inward who live in the wild-Olive and in their natural stock or state or condition know them not who are in the true Vine being made partakers of the Divine nature their faith standing out of the wisdom of mans words in the power of God groweth with an increase making fruifull being in the Vine the fruits of true faith do shew it forth as Vertue and Knowledge Temperance Patience Godliness brotherly kindness and charity which maketh fruitfull in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ so shall all men know saith he That ye are my Disciples if ye love one another continue in my love for faith without works is dead as the worlds faith is or the fruits of the first seed which is after the flesh and they that are in the flesh their old corrupt nature and in the wild Olive they cannot please God and their faith standeth without in the wisdom of mans words and not in the power of God which worketh a Reformation and a change but as they are in the fall their fruits make them manifest and their faith is corrupt it doth not purifie their conscience from dead works and so they believe in that which thier priests lead them into for good as say the Petitioners we have believed in them for good like Priests like People as in Hoseas time Hosea 4. and all live in one nature that are in the fall and are under the curse in their old nature both Priests and people and the Priests are evil examples to the people 1. The Priests they live in Pride and the people they believe The Priests are evil examples that if they may be proud that are their leaders they may follow their examples because it is suitable to their earthly hearts and so they believe in them as they say for good calling good evil and evil good but the woe is to such 2. The Priests they live in Covetousness and the people they follow their examples and are all given to Covetousness both Priests and people and love it and believe it is good because it is suitable to their earthly
