to_o christ_n be_v a_o false_a witness_n and_o so_o they_o do_v therefore_o they_o persecute_v they_o for_o it_o as_o you_o will_v do_v i_o if_o it_o lay_v in_o your_o power_n as_o it_o do_v in_o they_o 4._o r._n f._n by_o their_o commission_n they_o be_v to_o preach_v to_o the_o people_n and_o the_o same_o commission_n and_o the_o doctrine_n thereof_o they_o be_v to_o testify_v to_o they_o

but_o the_o remembrance_n of_o that_o sentence_n which_o you_o the_o pretend_a witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v pass_v upon_o they_o in_o this_o life_n because_o thou_o false_o say_v no_o man_n

lodowick_n muggleton_n be_v reply_n the_o reader_n may_v see_v the_o gross_a darkness_n of_o the_o quaker_n here_o he_o prove_v my_o commission_n as_o he_o do_v think_v to_o be_v false_a and_o a_o pretend_a thing_n from_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o scripture_n as_o if_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n commission_n be_v repeat_v over_o so_o many_o hundred_o year_n since_o will_v make_v my_o

other_o man_n do_v for_o that_o be_v a_o pretend_a commission_n which_o do_v counterfeit_a and_o pretend_v to_o do_v the_o same_o thing_n as_o they_o do_v which_o have_v their_o commission_n sign_v and_o seal_v by_o the_o voice_n of_o god_n himself_o as_o moses_n and_o paul_n the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n these_o i_o do_v own_o that_o they_o have_v a_o commission_n from_o god_n but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o any_o quaker_n or_o any_o other_o man_n do_v this_o prove_v that_o the_o read_n of_o other_o man_n commission_n will_v make_v a_o man_n a_o minister_n messenger_n or_o ambassador_n of_o christ_n sure_o no_o neither_o will_v the_o read_n of_o the_o scripture_n prove_v my_o commission_n to_o be_v false_a and_o a_o pretend_a thing_n as_o you_o say_v it_o be_v for_o i_o say_v in_o those_o letter_n to_o the_o quaker_n that_o my_o commission_n be_v as_o true_a as_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n commission_n be_v and_o of_o a_o more_o high_a nature_n than_o they_o be_v this_o i_o own_o to_o be_v true_a for_o my_o commission_n be_v give_v by_o voice_n of_o word_n from_o god_n as_o they_o be_v therefore_o it_o be_v that_o i_o certain_o know_v that_o god_n do_v give_v a_o commission_n to_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o unto_o his_o apostle_n also_o as_o moses_n and_o aaron_n be_v the_o two_o first_o that_o god_n do_v choose_v and_o give_v a_o commission_n unto_o to_o act_v forth_o the_o law_n which_o do_v signify_v the_o water_n so_o likewise_o god_n have_v choose_v john_n reeve_n and_o lodowick_n muggelton_n to_o be_v his_o two_o last_o witness_n and_o prophet_n of_o the_o spirit_n so_o that_o the_o repeat_n of_o the_o true_a prophet_n and_o apostle_n commission_n over_o again_o now_o will_v never_o prove_v i_o a_o false_a witness_n nor_o my_o

you_o be_v tell_v so_o by_o the_o last_o true_a prophet_n but_o if_o earthly_a king_n do_v pardon_v any_o traitor_n it_o be_v because_o some_o other_o person_n in_o great_a power_n do_v petition_n or_o intercede_v to_o the_o king_n for_o he_o and_o so_o perhaps_o the_o king_n for_o some_o end_n best_o know_v to_o himself_o may_v save_v his_o life_n but_o keep_v he_o in_o prison_n all_o day_n of_o his_o life_n so_o that_o this_o can_v not_o proper_o be_v call_v a_o pardon_v power_n except_o he_o free_o forgive_v he_o and_o raise_v he_o up_o to_o the_o same_o honour_n which_o he_o have_v before_o but_o you_o quaker_n have_v no_o such_o friend_n to_o intercede_v for_o you_o to_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n now_o you_o be_v condemn_v by_o his_o messenger_n for_o christ_n will_v not_o intercede_v for_o you_o for_o you_o have_v deny_v he_o before_o man_n in_o that_o you_o deny_v that_o flesh_n and_o bone_n which_o he_o suffer_v death_n in_o and_z rise_v again_o in_o the_o same_o flesh_n and_o bone_n and_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o do_v now_o remain_v there_o in_o that_o same_o body_n only_o it_o be_v spiritualise_v and_o glorify_a body_n yet_o a_o body_n this_o i_o say_v you_o quaker_n do_v deny_v whatsoever_o you_o may_v prattle_v and_o talk_v of_o a_o christ_n yet_o you_o own_v no_o christ_n but_o what_o be_v within_o you_o this_o i_o know_v to_o be_v true_a else_o i_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o j_o alous_a against_o those_o people_n more_o than_o other_o but_o for_o this_o very_a thing_n that_o christ_n will_v never_o intercede_v for_o pardon_v for_o you_o quaker_n that_o be_v condemn_v by_o i_o yet_o this_o i_o shall_v say_v if_o it_o will_v please_v you_o that_o if_o i_o be_v a_o false_a prophet_n and_o witness_n as_o you_o say_v i_o be_o than_o i_o say_v that_o curse_n which_o i_o have_v pass_v upon_o you_o and_o many_o other_o i_o say_v let_v it_o be_v all_o upon_o i_o and_o you_o shall_v all_o go_v free_a but_o if_o i_o be_v true_a as_o i_o know_v i_o be_o there_o be_v no_o possibility_n for_o you_o nor_o other_o to_o escape_v i_o can_v say_v no_o more_o in_o this_o thing_n but_o shall_v leave_v it_o to_o christ_n the_o judge_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a to_o give_v i_o my_o reward_n according_a as_o i_o have_v be_v faithful_a in_o the_o commission_n which_o he_o have_v put_v upon_o i_o again_o it_o be_v not_o with_o earthly_a king_n as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n for_o many_o time_n earthly_a king_n have_v their_o pardon_v power_n and_o their_o condemn_v power_n which_o they_o have_v in_o themselves_o take_v away_o from_o they_o and_o so_o do_v stand_v in_o need_n of_o pardon_n themselves_o and_o so_o all_o those_o judge_n which_o have_v their_o commission_n from_o the_o king_n be_v worth_a nothing_o because_o another_o power_n have_v overcome_v he_o and_o have_v take_v it_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sword_n so_o that_o earthly_a king_n do_v sometime_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o pardon_n and_o mercy_n themselves_o for_o a_o earthly_a power_n do_v stand_v no_o long_o then_o till_o a_o strong_a than_o he_o do_v overcome_v he_o as_o may_v be_v read_v concern_v the_o king_n

all_o those_o judge_n which_o have_v their_o commission_n from_o he_o be_v put_v out_o of_o their_o place_n of_o power_n and_o so_o their_o commission_n be_v make_v void_a and_o of_o none_o effect_v this_o experience_n in_o these_o our_o day_n have_v show_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o but_o that_o commission_n which_o be_v give_v of_o god_n the_o king_n of_o heaven_n can_v be_v make_v void_a neither_o can_v that_o man_n which_o god_n have_v make_v judge_n of_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a matter_n i_o say_v that_o man_n commission_n can_v be_v take_v away_o by_o any_o but_o by_o god_n himself_o and_o see_v that_o no_o power_n can_v conquer_v or_o overcome_v god_n the_o king_n of_o heaven_n to_o dis-throne_n he_o because_o he_o be_v from_o everlasting_a to_o everla_v and_o look_v

this_o you_o show_v that_o you_o have_v go_v no_o further_o nor_o hardly_o so_o far_o as_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o nation_n for_o you_o have_v get_v a_o god_n and_o a_o christ_n too_o and_o yet_o
