Christ rebukes and tels them that they did not know what spirit they are of and now if they did not know what Spirit they was of do these which have persecuted about Church and Religion since the Apostles daies who would compel mens Bodies Goods Lives Souls and Estates into their hands by a Law or make them suffer else these are not the Ministers of Christ the Savior that destroyes mens lives and they know not what Spirit they be of and the lives bodies and souls are not to be trusted in their hand and you that do persecute shall have no Resurrection to life except you repent but they that do know what Spirit they be of themselves they are in the unrebukable Zeal and by the Spirit of God they offer up their spirit their souls and bodies to the Lord which are his whose they are to keep them G. F. WE be of the Royal Seed Elect and precious before the World began that which ever the Sodomites crucified grieved and vexed by their unrighteous ungodly Conversation who lived in fulness and pleasures and abundance of idleness And are of the Seed that cannot serve the wills and lusts of men and bow and stoop to them who are a people redeemed out of kindreds Kingdoms Peoples and Nations who are of the Household of God built up together a spiritual House whose builder and maker is God and do reign upon the Earth as Kings and Priests unto God whom we serve day and night and are of the seed that hath been slain from the Foundation of the World which the Princes of the World and Councels and the great and wise of the Earth crucified who lived in the form of Godliness of the Saints words but quench't the spirit in themselves and being that Birth born of the flesh persecutes that which is born of the spirit We are the Seed the Annointed which the Powers of the Earth combines and takes counsel together against whom we see God sitting in Heaven laugh them to scorn we are the Royal Priesthood who offers dayly to the Lord the spiritual Sacrifice the holy Generation and the peculiar people zealous of good works cloathed with the zeal of Christ against the bad works and the workers Therefore of all Nations Peoples sects Waies Professions and Talkers of Religion are we hated by them that be out of the way and power of God though they profess Scriptures Church Worship and Ministry yet such have crucified Christ and the Lord of Glory We are them that witness the Promise of God fulfilled and that do witness that the Ages is come wherein God would shew forth his exceeding Riches and kindness which was wrought amongst the Apostles we are the Annointed of God and his Prophets that he saith Touch not who are as the apple of his Eye who for our sakes hath reproved Powers and Thrones and Dominions and rebuked them We are the Preachers of Righteousness in this great City Sodom wherein Christ was crucified where the life of the Prophets and the Apostles and holy men of God lies slain and Cursers Swearers Drunkards Eaters and Drinkers that riseth up to play in all fulness wantonness and prophaness professeth their words and makes merry over their lives and the witnesses since the Apostles daies have been slain the woman in the Wilderness the Lamb and his Wife shall be known which is come up out of the Wilderness So in this great City Sodom and Gomorah the false Church and the Whore wherein all the abominations and that made all the Nations drunk of the Wine of the Wrath of her Fornication whereby the World is all on heaps about Religion and Church Worship and the several waies in Sodomites nature professing the Saints words imitating forms killing and slaying one another about the professing the Saints words but out of their life which shews that they are not of the Royal Seed which saith Love Enemies that 's the Royal Seed and they that follows him is of the Royal Priesthood and holy People and Generation amongst whom is the Royal Law of Love whereby we cannot respect mens persons for he who doth is convinced of the Royal Law to be a Transgressor So every one of us that is come to the seed of God that bruiseth the Serpents head that led man from God who is the Prince of the World the Prince of Darkness and the Prince of the Air the Father of Lyes a Murderer from the beginning the Corrupter of Man-kind the Author of the separation from God and the Original of sin the beginning of it which led man from his Dominion over the handy works of God which the Royal Seed Christ destroyes and renews man again in the Image of God and brings him again to his Dominion over the handy works of God and this hundreds of thousands are now witnessing by which they come to be Kings and redeemed from the Earth and comes to be made Kings upon the Earth in the Image of God over the handy works of God in the wisdom by which they were created so all Powers whatever that are a terror to evil doers that bears not the Sword in vaine to us are a praise that do well And all Kings upon the Earth that are annointed by God a figure of our Christ the King the annointed who ends them all and makes Kings to reign upon the Earth amongst whom Christ is King which thousands witness amongst whom he is King and all other Kings made by man and putting man on Earthly Crowns by Earthly Man will put them off again if they cross them and unking them this is the state amongst them in whom Christ reigns not nor the true Magistrate which is to the Evil Doers a Terror but since the Apostles daies all hath been in a Confusion about Religion Church and Worship amongst them that have killed the witnesses and since the true Church went into the Wilderness and the Witnesses slain and the man Child caught up to God So they that have slain the Witnesses and killed the Saints hath been in all this confusion and the Witnesses is rising and the Everlasting Gospel shall be preached again amongst them that have had the words but have slain the life of the Prophets and the Apostles unto all Nations Kindreds and Tongues of them that dwell upon the Earth so the great Professors of the World which was the Jews could not abide Jesus the King that he should reign and where he is now in the Male and in the Female he is King and that makes Kings among whom he is King All in the Name of the mighty King of Kings is to be done and then it is in the Power All Friends Take heed of running on in a form least you do lose the Power but keep in the Power and Seed of God in which you will live in the substance and at any Disputes take heed many may be lifted up in the Victory and Conquest and after have a joy in the Prophesies and openings and after fall And if Brablers come and Janglers say they have a bad Meeting and so the murmuring Nature getteth up out of patience and the Seed which beareth all things and suffereth all things which keepeth down that which causeth lifting up murmuring and disputing which the Seed endeth and Prophesie and keepeth down all the other that is contrary and would live in the contrary that which keeps down that which doth change is the peace and the Corner stone and the staidness in the Seed and Life G. F. THE END
