A76959	The tree of Christian faith: being a true information, how a man may be one spirit with God, and what man must do to perform the works of God: in which is comprehended (compendiously) the whole Christian doctrine and faith. Item, what faith and doctrine is: an open gate of the great mystery of God out of the divine Magia, through the three principles of the divine being. / Written in High Dutch by Jacob Behmen.; Baum des christlichen Glaubens.

quality_n of_o the_o fiery_a essence_n till_o the_o quality_n in_o the_o break_n separate_v than_o each_o step_v into_o its_o own_o mystery_n 15._o therefore_o the_o fire_n also_o will_v be_v free_a from_o water_n for_o water_n be_v a_o death_n unto_o fire_n and_o be_v a_o mystery_n unto_o it_o 16._o and_o we_o see_v also_o hereby_o how_o the_o water_n hold_v the_o fire_n imprison_v and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o die_v in_o the_o fire_n but_o be_v whole_o a_o mystery_n in_o the_o fire_n 17._o as_o it_o be_v apparent_a how_o it_o break_v forth_o in_o the_o water_n and_o reveal_v itself_o that_o it_o reveal_v itself_o out_o of_o the_o centre_n of_o its_o own_o genetrix_fw-la as_o it_o be_v apparent_a in_o lightning_n and_o be_v know_v also_o in_o a_o stone_n which_o be_v but_o a_o water_n 18._o and_o we_o see_v chief_o how_o all_o the_o form_n of_o nature_n be_v desirous_a of_o the_o light_n for_o in_o the_o same_o desire_v the_o oil_n be_v beget_v in_o which_o the_o light_n be_v know_v for_o it_o exi_v out_o of_o meekness_n 19_o so_o we_o be_v to_o know_v our_o life_n that_o in_o we_o stand_v open_a the_o centre_n of_o fire_n for_o the_o life_n burn_v in_o the_o fire_n 20._o and_o then_o be_v we_o to_o consider_v the_o desire_n unto_o love_n which_o exi_v in_o the_o word_n of_o life_n in_o the_o angelical_a world_n where_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n stand_v with_o his_o desire_n towards_o we_o in_o his_o imagination_n and_o draw_v we_o also_o into_o the_o divine_a mystery_n 21._o and_o three_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v the_o magical_a kingdom_n of_o this_o world_n which_o burn_v also_o in_o we_o and_o draw_v we_o vehement_o into_o its_o wonder_n for_o it_o will_v be_v manifest_a 22._o and_o man_n be_v create_v unto_o that_o end_n that_o he_o shall_v reveal_v the_o mystery_n of_o it_o and_o to_o bring_v the_o wonder_n to_o light_n and_o into_o form_n after_o the_o eternal_a wisdom_n 23._o now_o if_o he_o shall_v do_v so_o and_o burn_v thus_o in_o a_o threefold_a fire_n than_o the_o true_a spirit_n in_o who_o the_o angelical_a image_n stick_v be_v in_o great_a pain_n and_o in_o great_a danger_n for_o he_o walk_v in_o a_o very_a narrow_a path_n 24._o for_o he_o have_v two_o friend_n which_o still_o draw_v he_o each_o will_v be_v in_o the_o image_n and_o bring_v his_o quality_n into_o it_o as_o the_o inner_a fire_n and_o also_o the_o external_a fire_n the_o inner_a kingdom_n of_o the_o fury_n and_o also_o the_o outer_a earthly_a kingdom_n of_o the_o mirror_n of_o this_o world_n and_o thus_o the_o true_a image_n stick_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o pressure_n 25._o for_o the_o inner_a kingdom_n will_v reveal_v the_o wonder_n through_o the_o external_a 26._o but_o because_o it_o be_v too_o sharp_a than_o the_o external_a kingdom_n fly_v from_o the_o inner_a and_o reach_v after_o the_o mean_n as_o after_o the_o image_n which_o stand_v in_o the_o freedom_n of_o god_n and_o so_o involve_v herself_o into_o the_o image_n for_o all_o reach_v after_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n and_o after_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o joy_n kingdom_n 27._o now_o there_o lie_v a_o necessity_n upon_o the_o image_n to_o defend_v herself_o and_o not_o to_o let_v the_o earthly_a guest_n come_v in_o much_o less_o the_o fiery_a one_o and_o yet_o it_o be_v bear_v out_o of_o both_o as_o the_o life_n out_o of_o the_o fire_n and_o the_o wonder_n out_o of_o the_o external_a 28._o therefore_o it_o be_v much_o require_v of_o man_n that_o he_o lead_v a_o temperate_a sober_a life_n and_o not_o to_o be_v pamper_a too_o much_o with_o the_o external_a kingdom_n else_o it_o make_v a_o habitation_n in_o the_o noble_a image_n 29._o and_o herein_o we_o understand_v the_o mighty_a strife_n in_o man_n about_o god_n image_n for_o there_o be_v three_o which_o fight_n about_o she_o as_o first_o the_o severe_a fiery_a life_n and_o then_o the_o divine_a life_n and_o three_o the_o earthly_a life_n thus_o the_o noble_a image_n stick_v in_o the_o midst_n and_o be_v draw_v by_o these_o three_o 30._o now_o it_o be_v needful_a for_o he_o that_o he_o hide_v himself_o with_o faith_n in_o the_o mystery_n of_o hope_n and_o let_v he_o stand_v still_o in_o that_o mystery_n 31._o where_o the_o devil_n in_o the_o inner_a fiery_a life_n still_o ride_v forth_o into_o the_o outer_a earthly_a life_n in_o pride_n covetousness_n and_o falsehood_n over_o the_o noble_a image_n and_o will_v bring_v she_o into_o the_o fire_n and_o anguish_n life_n and_o break_v she_o 32._o for_o he_o still_o suppose_v that_o the_o place_n of_o this_o world_n be_v his_o kingdom_n he_o will_v not_o endure_v any_o other_o image_n in_o it_o 33._o now_o fall_v the_o noble_a image_n into_o cross_n affliction_n into_o anguish_n and_o misery_n and_o here_o belong_v a_o strif_n thereto_o to_o fight_v about_o the_o noble_a garland_n of_o god_n kingdom_n 34._o hence_o arise_v prayer_n that_o the_o image_n go_v out_o continual_o out_o of_o the_o in-brought_a earthly_a be_v and_o out_o of_o the_o proud_a hellish_a abomination_n with_o pray_v and_o still_o enter_v into_o god_n life_n in_o his_o love_n 35._o thus_o the_o true_a image_n still_o mortify_v the_o earthly_a adam_n and_o also_o the_o hellish_a proud_a devil_n and_o must_v still_o stand_v like_o a_o warrior_n 36._o and_o the_o most_o useful_a thing_n for_o she_o be_v that_o she_o wrap_v herself_o up_o in_o patience_n and_o throw_v herself_o under_o the_o cross_n and_o still_o spring_v up_o in_o love_n 37._o for_o that_o love_n be_v her_o sword_n wherewith_o she_o strike_v at_o the_o devil_n and_o expele_v the_o earthly_a be_v she_o have_v never_o another_o sword_n wherewith_o to_o defend_v herself_o but_o only_o the_o meek_a water_n of_o eternal_a life_n which_o do_v not_o please_v the_o proud_a furious_a spirit_n of_o fire_n for_o it_o be_v poison_n unto_o he_o and_o he_o fly_v from_o it_o 38._o now_o if_o we_o will_v speak_v right_o of_o the_o tree_n of_o christian_a faith_n then_o we_o say_v its_o root_n stand_v in_o mystery_n of_o hope_n its_o growth_n stand_v in_o love_n and_o its_o body_n in_o the_o comprehension_n of_o faith_n 39_o that_o be_v where_o the_o image_n press_v in_o with_o her_o earnest_a desire_n into_o god_n love_n and_o comprehend_v god_n entity_n that_o be_v christ_n body_n now_o this_o be_v the_o body_n in_o which_o the_o tree_n stand_v grow_v and_o spring_v up_o and_o bear_v fruit_n in_o patience_n all_o these_o belong_v to_o the_o angelical_a world_n 40._o they_o be_v the_o food_n of_o the_o soul_n on_o which_o she_o feed_v and_o refresh_v her_o fiery_a life_n that_o it_o be_v change_v into_o the_o light_n of_o meekness_n 41._o and_o thus_o the_o tree_n grow_v in_o god_n paradise_n who_o the_o outward_a man_n know_v not_o and_o no_o reason_n comprehend_v it_o 42._o but_o it_o be_v well_o know_v to_o the_o noble_a image_n and_o be_v reveal_v unto_o she_o then_o when_o the_o external_a life_n break_v and_o after_o he_o follow_v all_o his_o work_n in_o the_o mystery_n of_o hope_n into_o which_o he_o have_v sow_v 43._o therefore_o let_v all_o those_o which_o travail_n like_o pilgrim_n in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n think_v that_o they_o must_v not_o look_v for_o good_a and_o jolly_a day_n in_o this_o world_n in_o worldly_a honour_n for_o affliction_n contempt_n and_o persecution_n will_v wait_v on_o they_o hourly_o 44._o he_o be_v here_o only_o in_o a_o vail_n of_o misery_n and_o must_v continual_o stand_v in_o the_o fight_n for_o the_o devil_n go_v about_o he_o as_o a_o roar_a lion_n he_o raise_v all_o his_o child_n of_o

he_o sow_v in_o affliction_n and_o reap_v in_o joy_n but_o who_o can_v express_v his_o glory_n which_o he_o have_v to_o receive_v for_o a_o reward_n or_o who_o can_v speak_v of_o the_o victorious_a

principle_n and_o live_v in_o another_o quality_n or_o source_n 10._o therefore_o understand_v we_o now_o in_o this_o way_n you_o see_v and_o know_v the_o original_n of_o man_n life_n how_o the_o same_o exi_v in_o the_o mother_n womb_n and_o you_o see_v also_o wherein_o it_o do_v qualify_v and_o move_v as_o chief_o in_o four_o form_n viz._n in_o fire_n ayr_n water_n and_o earth_n 11._o and_o though_o it_o stand_v therein_o thus_o yet_o be_v it_o no_o more_o in_o it_o then_o a_o animal_n life_n for_o he_o receive_v his_o reason_n from_o the_o star_n and_o it_o be_v find_v that_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o star_n make_v a_o tincture_n in_o the_o four_o element_n from_o whence_o come_v reason_n and_o qualification_n lust_n and_o unlustiness_n or_o indisposedness_n 12._o and_o be_v yet_o far_o from_o the_o true_a humane_a life_n for_o this_o reason_n seek_v no_o further_o but_o herself_o in_o her_o wonder_n 13._o yet_o in_o man_n it_o be_v a_o desire_n and_o a_o great_a longing_n after_o a_o high_a better_a and_o eternal_a life_n in_o which_o there_o be_v no_o such_o quality_n 14._o though_o reason_n do_v neither_o comprehend_v nor_o see_v it_o yet_o there_o lie_v a_o mystery_n in_o reason_n which_o taste_v and_o know_v from_o whence_o exi_v the_o languor_n or_o gnaw_v 15._o whereby_o we_o know_v that_o the_o same_o mystery_n be_v implant_v also_o in_o or_o at_o the_o first_o creation_n and_o be_v man_n propriety_n and_o we_o find_v it_o thus_o that_o it_o stand_v in_o a_o desire_n or_o longing_n as_o in_o a_o magical_a groan_v 16._o moreover_o we_o find_v that_o we_o be_v in_o a_o strange_a lodging_n with_o the_o same_o mystery_n that_o the_o same_o mystery_n do_v not_o stand_v in_o the_o spirit_n of_o this_o world_n for_o it_o comprehend_v it_o not_o neither_o do_v it_o find_v it_o 17._o here_o we_o know_v the_o heavy_a fall_n of_o adam_n for_o we_o find_v that_o mystery_n in_o the_o will_n of_o the_o mind_n that_o it_o be_v a_o hide_a spring_n or_o fountain_n which_o open_v itself_o in_o another_o principle_n 18._o we_o understand_v also_o how_o that_o mystery_n stand_v hide_v in_o the_o anguish-quality_n and_o open_v itself_o through_o the_o anguish_n of_o the_o will._n 19_o and_o then_o three_o we_o find_v how_o the_o same_o mysterium_fw-la be_v hold_v imprison_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o this_o world_n 20._o and_o how_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o external_a life_n have_v power_n to_o enter_v into_o it_o and_o to_o corrupt_v it_o whereby_o that_o mystery_n can_v come_v into_o the_o light_n because_o it_o do_v hide_v it_o that_o the_o genetrix_fw-la may_v not_o bring_v forth_o her_o fruit_n and_o so_o lie_v hide_v as_o a_o mystery_n 21._o and_o if_o the_o body_n die_v than_o the_o will_n have_v not_o another_o which_o may_v reveal_v the_o mystery_n therefore_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o fire_n or_o of_o the_o soul_n abide_v in_o darkness_n and_o the_o mystery_n stand_v hide_v in_o he_o eternal_o as_o in_o a_o mystery_n 22._o thus_o we_o know_v the_o mystery_n to_o be_v god_n kingdom_n which_o stand_v hide_v in_o the_o soul_n which_o give_v a_o lust_n and_o desire_n to_o the_o soul_n that_o it_o imagine_v into_o that_o mystery_n 23._o where_o she_o be_v magical_o impregnate_v in_o the_o same_o mystery_n from_o whence_o arise_v a_o will_n unto_o she_o to_o go_v out_o of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o fire_n into_o god_n mystery_n 24._o and_o if_o it_o so_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o she_o lift_v up_o the_o will_n and_o cast_v the_o same_o into_o the_o mystery_n then_o be_v the_o will_v impregnate_v with_o the_o mystery_n 25._o for_o the_o will_n be_v longing_n and_o get_v the_o body_n of_o the_o mystery_n as_o the_o be_v of_o the_o mystery_n which_o be_v god_n be_v which_o be_v incomprehensible_a unto_o nature_n thus_o the_o will_n of_o god_n do_v attract_v the_o similitude_n or_o image_n 26._o now_o if_o the_o will_v be_v beget_v out_o of_o the_o soul_n fire_n than_o it_o stand_v also_o with_o its_o root_n in_o the_o soul_n and_o there_o be_v no_o division_n betwixt_o the_o will_n and_o the_o soul_n but_o the_o will_n become_v a_o spirit_n with_o god_n and_o become_v the_o garment_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o that_o the_o soul_n be_v hide_v in_o the_o will_n in_o god_n 27._o and_o although_o she_o dwell_v in_o the_o body_n yet_o be_v she_o encompass_v with_o her_o will_n and_o be_v

take_v for_o a_o historical_a will_n where_o reason_n know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o desire_n after_o god_n in_o she_o but_o keep_v that_o desire_n imprison_v in_o wickedness_n that_o the_o will_n can_v go_v out_o of_o the_o soul_n and_o enter_v into_o life_n or_o god_n mystery_n but_o cause_v opinion_n and_o set_v the_o will_n into_o a_o fancy_n 29._o where_o the_o will_n be_v not_o able_a to_o reach_v the_o mystery_n of_o god_n and_o thus_o abide_v in_o the_o fancy_n or_o quite_o bid_v in_o the_o soul_n so_o to_o be_v judge_v at_o a_o future_a time_n where_o reason_n hold_v the_o

more_o high_o than_o the_o filth_n of_o sin_n 33._o for_o god_n do_v not_o accept_v of_o sin_n but_o he_o regard_v and_o accept_v the_o obedient_a freewill_n he_o suffer_v not_o sin_n to_o come_v

now_o as_o god_n be_v free_a in_o himself_o from_o malice_n so_o must_v the_o will_v also_o be_v free_a then_o be_v it_o god_n similitude_n image_n and_o property_n for_o that_o which_o come_v unto_o
