A60453	The true and everlasting rule from God discovered and that which proveth all things, published from the spirit of truth, to the which rule the Scriptures also beareth testimony, that all the simple and honest-hearted may see what rule they are to walk by to come to perfect peace and rest with God for evermore : with an addition (to the former) wherein is also shewed, what that is in man which is not to be his guide nor rule : also, a testimony of the true prophet ... / by a servant of the Lord, & sufferer for his truth ... called Humphrey Smith.

the many Languages professed God who confounded the Language before whom their father Nimrod hunted and they being found in that which God confounded though they professed God yet in works denied him crucified his Son the Lord of glory writ over his head of the many Languages Latin Greek Hebrew this was written above him that was the light and so them now who are of this stock of Babel are yet exalted above the light and count the light a weak and low contemptible thing not able to save it self much less to save them that beleeve in it and so therein manifest themselves to be of their fathers who crucified him that said I am the light and said unto him If thou be the Son of God save thy self and so despised him who came to save them And this is some of the effect of mans hunting mightily in the earth as Nimrod did before they come to receive the spirit Gen 9. 18. and 25. Gen. 1● 8 9 10 11. Gen. 11. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8. John 19. 19 2. But Jacob followed obeyed and believed the Lord who is a spirit and the presence of God was with him and the blessing of the Most High was upon him and the Lord promised to be with him who was as a Worm in six troubles and in seven and when he passed through the fire and the water and God gave him a new Name and afterwards promised to give his seed a Name better then of Sons and of Daughters and Jacob was a plain man and dwelt in Tents and him God loved and he prevailed with God Isa 41. 14. Isa 43. 1 2 3 4 5. Ger. 2● 28. Isa 56. 5. And so Nimrod with his followers who was mighty in the earth came to be confounded and Jacob who was little in the earth as a worm and dwelt in Tents he and his Seed came to be blessed And Moses the servant of the Lord whom God Almighty honored in his everlasting love made him a deliverer unto and a Judge and Ruler over the people Acts 7. 35. he being in Aegypt the Land of darkness bondage and all the seed and Israel of God in cruel oppression and I do not read that he had any direction from man or scripture or any thing else without him to guide him at first to refuse to be called the Son of Pharaohs daughter and the glory of Aegypt and to chuse to suffer affliction with the people of God neither do I read that he saw the Angel or glory of the Lord until after he was and had been obedient unto that which God had given into him for that which may be known of God is manifest within Rom. 1. 19. for it is said in the scriptures of truth that it was by faith He● 11. 24. that he refused the evil and chused the good and faith is that which is in the heart Acts 15. 9. as it is written If thou believe in thy heart Rom. 10. 9 Acts 18. 37. and of that faith in the heart God hath given to every man a proportion Rom. 12. 6. and as that which is but little in man is loved and obeyed so man comes to know more of God and hear his word of Faith which is in the heart Rom. 10. 8. and it came into Moses heart to visit the Brethren and by hearing obedience of Faith then not Scripture man receiveth the spirit Ga. 3. ● which is an undeniable truth which I might prove by a Cloud of Witnesses from the scriptures which were given forth from the inspiration of God by his holy servants and so there being something of God in man wherby man may as Moses did first refuse the evil and then chuse a suffering state so learn to do well the sin then comes to be done away Isa 1. 16. 17. 18. and afterwards more of Gods endless love and powerful presence is made manifest and so being faithful in the little received from God in the heart man comes to rule over much as Moses did who first learned the obedience of faith in the heart though in Aegyp● and in the time of great persecution where he was also despised of his Brethren yet he obeyed the Word of faith in the heart and so afterwards to him God appeared and the Word of the Lord came unto him and he talked with God afterwards face to face as a man talketh with his friend and the many wonders and mighty power of God wrought in and by him are recorded at large in the holy Scriptures for a testimony thereof to last throughout all generations And by this faith also afterwards the Members of Christ did walk 2 Cor. 5. 7. And Joshua who succeeded Moses was full of the spirit of wisdom consider that he was first full of the spirit and so thereby he came to be a Leader Ruler over others and the dread of the Lord fell and his judgements came upon them who rose up or stood against him and those whom he by the power of the spirit in him came to rule over and great many and mighty were the victories that God gave unto this man who was bold and couragious by reason of the fulnesse of the spirit that was in him and the people hearkened unto him as they did unto Moses and he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses Deut. 34. 9. Josh 11. 15. But the Lords people in these days who are led by the spirit of God in them are accounted both by Priests Rulers people to be drunk or mad as it was before when the Son of God who is the light was revealed in Paul Gal. 1. 15 16. he was accounted by the ruler of the people to be mad Act. 26 24. and when the disciples of Christ had waited and afterwards received the spirit of truth within from which they spake as with new tongues as the spirit gave them utterance at them then many were amazed others mocked supposing thē to be drunk Acts 2. 12 13 14 15. and when Hannah prayed in heart being grieved in spirit was esteemed to be drunk even by Ely the priest yet she by her prayers in her heart obtained her desire of the Lord who gave her a Son that knew the Lord and ministred before him being yet a child but the Sons of Ely the priest who was in the outward sacrifices were sons of Belial and knew not God l●ke the sons of the Priest of England 1 Sam. 1. 14. ● ●8 And David a man after Gods own heart was as a deaf man and heard not as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth being dumb with silence held his peace even from good until his heart was hot within him and the fire burned then he spake with his tongue Ps 38. 13 14. Ps 39. 1 2 3. 9 afterwards he said Thy word have I hid in my hear which word is as a fire That I might not sin
