Therefore now Pallard great water Baptizer and all that are as thou art teachers of others before they be taught themselves and all imitations that worships ye know not what who are dipt In the water but are ignorant of the Divine nature that sayes the Bible is a History and yet the Letter and the Spirit Pallard thou sayes are one and inseparable how blinde and ignorant art thou and are you Baptizers of the Mistery silence all flesh and stop your mouths and take heed of deluding poor people any longer I warn you and charge you in the presence of the Lord as you will answer it before the Judgement seat of the great God and Pallard that in thy conscience shall be a witnesse for me when thou sees me not the Light of Christ Jesus there for to that am I made manifest yet shut up from thy dark minde for Light shines in darknesse but darknesse comprehendeth it not Iohn 1.9 Yet Light comprehendeth darknesse though darknesse cannot comprehend the Light and with the Light that comprehends the world art thou comprehended and with the Light which changeth not art thou seen and all in thy nature and known to be our of the Light and out of the Truth and out of the new Covenant and out of the Church that is in God the first-born which is written in heaven and no officer there nor no Minister of the new Covenant and the Spirit nor yet baptized into Christ nor no friend of Christ nor none in thy nature no more than the envious Jews and the Pharisees was and the Priests the Priests of the world and thou art in one nature and guided by one spirit the same that guides all the children of disobedience as it doth you and there is no difference between them and you but that you have the sheeps cloathing and they have the wolves but both one inside and nature thou hast the outside form according to the Letter more than they have but thou art without the power and ignorant of the Mistery in the Spiritas they are and as abovesaid that sayes the Bible is the History in the Letter and yet thou sayes the roughnesse is felt and thy darknesse is seen thou dark Sott would thou bring God and Christ Faith hope Election and the New Covenant the holy Ghost and the eternall Spirit and bloud of the Covenant within the compasse of death and have them historicall that sayes the Scriptures or Letter of the Bible is a History and the Spirit and the Letter are inseparable when as I told thee a History was a fable or a story but the Scriptures I own to be a true Declaration of the Truth that they lived in that spoke them forth and the Declaration of the Truth is most certainly believed amongst us that the world scornfully cals Quakers and the life of them enjoyed Christ Jesus the chief shepherd and Bishop of our souls and though the Scriptures outwardly be not the Spirit nor the eternall Word nor the life of God and Christ and the Saints yet the Scriptures are a true Declaration of those things declared of Luk. 1.1 but not the Word of God for it is eternall life and liveth and endureth for ever 1 John 2 3.4 5. 1 Pet 1.22.23 I would have had thee Pallard to have proved by the Scripture that it was any where called a History and that the Spirit of God was kept or confined in a history or a fable but thou could not for godlinesse is a mistery and the Devine Writings by the Spirit are in the new heart tables as it is written Col. 1.27 2 Cor. 3.2 3. and the Saints knowes Christ in them and the opening of the Mistery and his Ministers preaches him amongst the Gentiles now for you self-conceated ones like the outward Jews will none of his counsel but great is the mistery of godlinesse 1 Tim. 3.16 and the Comforter that abideth for ever even the Spirit of Truth whom the world cannot receive and you Pharisees and self-conceited ones cannot receive it neither do you know him that sayes the Spirit is in the Letter and the Letter is a History but we know him in the mistery and the Spirit of Truth to be out of a History for he dwelleth in us as saith the Scripture John 14.15 16 17. Rom. 8.10 11. Praised be the Lord for the riches of his love to our souls in taking of the Seals and opening the mistery in the Lord Jesus Christ Rev. 5. Isa 29.11 to the end Col 1.25 26 27 28. Which mistery is yet hid to thee Pallard water-Baptizer and all in thy nature that sayes the Spirit and the Letter is inseparable and is a History stop thy mouth for shame and cover thy lips for the promise is not to that seed of the serpent which you wise ones of the world are one with as the Pharisees and the envious Jews was but the promise is to
puts a difference between the man and the woman and forbids the woman to speak in the Church he that can receive it let him I told thee Pallard that Paul also circumcised after he were a Minister of the Gospel as well as baptized and he had as much ground for the one as the other but no command for neither and Christ was circumcised outwardly as well as baptized outwardly and he ministred the circumcision also and were a Minister of the same as in Rom. 15.8 And I asked thee how thou followed Christ in that to fulfill that Ministration and what account thou couldest give of it in the inward man as it is written Col. 2.11 12. c. Because Christ ministred that and they did witnesse that Ministration through the Spirit in him and so they were made compleat in the substance and life of all truth through the Crosse And because it is written that death reigned from Adam untill Moses even over all that had not sinned after the similitude of Adams transgression and the Law and the Prophets were till John John succeeded them and he came burning and shining amongst those that were born of woman was not a greater than John yet he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he Then Pallard water baptizer I asked thee how thou couldst witnesse to those ministrations in the inward man for the seed is but one and how thou couldest witnesse a passing from death unto life as they did that spoke forth the Scriptures for they that had passed from death unto life said that he that was born of God did not commit sin and they also said that he that committed sin were of the devill and thereby the two seeds was known and the children of God was made manifest and the children of the devill by the operation of each seed ruling in them and working forth through them and they that had passed from death unto life knew who was of God and who was not and so doth the same seed now and they knew who did abide in darknesse and death and so do they now who are in the Light life and power of the Truth and they know that the Son of God is made manifest in them and hath taken away their sins as they knew then that witnessed the same through the Crosse who said that they dwelt in him and he dwelt in them but they did not know it by the dead Letter but by the quickening Spirit which is life and was given them 1 John 3. Chapter And they knew who were passed from death unto life and that the Son of God was come and had given them an understanding that they thereby might know him that was true and they knew it not by the Letter but by the Spirit and they had the true knowledge of it in the eternall Truth who affirmatively said we are in him that is true even in his Son Jesus Christ this is the true God and eternall life and not the Letter but the Letter declareth of it 1 John 5.20 Then Pallard I asked thee how it was with thee in deaths Dominion because it is written of deaths reigning from Adam untill Moses over all who have not sinned after the similitude of Adams transgression and what that death was and reigned over in thee how thou came from under it to know the Law which is perfect and doth endure for ever according to that in the conscience and is to be fulfilled in all that walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit and how thou came into the prophecies in the inwards because it is written the Law and the Prophets are till John and the seed is but one not seeds but seed and the promises are to the seed fulfilled through death in the Ministery by the Spirit in the crosse which cuts down and raiseth up and how thou came to know Johns Ministry set up within because he came and doth come burning and shining and there is a willingnesse to rejoice in his Light for a season and how it was with thee in that Ministration to know the ax laid to the root of the tree and the tree to be cut down and what that fallow ground in thee was which must be ript up and I also asked thee what self was with the fruits and the ground of it which the Crosse is Lo I told thee the creation was a figure and out of the ground sprung up grosse herbs weeds briers and thornes c. And the ofspring was not the ground the ofspring might be cut off and there might spring up more fruits of the like nature again so the fruits of self might be cut off and the ofspring was not the ground and whilest there was the ground and the roots in it unript up more fruits would grow there of like nature also therefore John said Rip up your fallow ground make the rough places smooth and prepare the way for the Lord to come into his Temple that he may sit as Refiner I asked thee how thou past through that Ministery of John in the inward man and what succeded John because it is written that the least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he and some did witnesse that they were set in heavenly places in Christ Jesus Eph. 2.6 And I said unto thee if thou was an Officer in the Church of the first born written in heaven and were in the kingdom thou couldest witnesse to those things Heb. 12.22 and 28. Luk 17 21. And liberty was granted to thee for to declare thy passages in the inward ministrations if that thou couldest that it might be for the good of the people there present but thou could not speak any thing at all concerning those conditions and inward ministrations when thou was desired and severall times urged to it but all that thou could say was to accuse falsly and said I denyed the Scriptures and made that thy cover which would not hide thee but left thee bare and thy nakednesse did then openly appear then I charged thee to be a lyar and others witnessed against thee for saying that I denyed the Scripture when thou had no ground for it but the devill was a lyer from the beginning and abode not in the Truth and thou lyer who art out of the Truth art of him as thy deeds maketh thee manifest John 8.44 Therefore stop thy mouth and cover thy lips and let shame strike thee in the face for ever thou lyer and false accuser of the just Paul who was a Minister of the new Covenant not of the Letter but of the the Spirit he declared of his passages and his grouth and how he came out of one dispensation into another and they that grew from one degree of grace and glory into another they said that they knew no man after the flesh though they had known Christ after the flesh yet henceforth knew they him so no more and they gave account of their
