such as cannot read letters but will have them to be prisoned and we have been partakers with them and so uphold the Priest which some have smarted for Let others take warning And you say your aime is to bring up Schollers with parts and learning to supply the Church with choice Ministers that they may be pillars of the Church Was ever they made pillars of the Church that came in their own names are not the Heathen and Papists and Jesuites your example in this and will they not over-wit you in this were not they the first Authors of it of making Ministers by their learning and did ever that in all ages do good to make a Minister of Christ Jesus to give him the spirit to give him the gift of God was not all the earth of one language before Babel and did not Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord who came out of cursed Cams stock begin to build Babel whom God did confound into many languages and is not that the confounded language your Original was not all this from the spirit did God confound his spirit and had not Pilate which crucified Christ Hebrew Greek and Latine did not he set this up a top of Christ when he crucified him so Babel is the beginning of it a top of Christ it stands Pilate set it a top of Him a top of life a top of Truth and could Pilate open the scripture or the Jews that had Hebrew Greek and Latine and not the life did not they prison and persecute and kill as you do and could not open scripture no more cannot you without the life of Christ did not the false Prophets Antichrist inwardly ravening who got the sheeps cloathing that Christ said should come Mat. 7. and 24. which John said was come in his first Epistle Chap. 2. Chap. 4. which went forth from them which in the Revelations All that dwelt upon the earth went after them Which after a while they killed the Saints that kept the testimony of Jesus the spirit of prophecy They inwardly ravened from the spirit of God and when they had killed the Saints power was given unto them the Beast and false Prophet over all Kindreds Tongues Nations Now hath the Beast power over Tongues what the Orthodox men what Tongues which is the original as you may read Rev. 13. And must these open Christs words the Beast hath power over Is that the Originall which the Beast hath power over Are those the Orthodox men the Beast hath power over which hath got the Tongues Oh shame you may deceive the Nations but you cannot the Elect And the whore which inwardly ravened from the spirit of God all Nations have drunk the cup of fornication before they could come to Christ the husband And she hath corrupted the earth and made the Inhabitants of it drunk and the Kings of the earth hath committed fornication with her who hath ravened from the spirit of God So the Kings of the earth hath made the Nations to bend before ever they could come to the husband and here Nations have had the form from her which ravened from the spirit of God before ever they could come to the power with that they have been drunk and so the whore sits upon the Nations and Multitudes and People and Tongues and these are waters on whom the whore sits Now what is the whore or the Original and Orthodox men and is the Original waters and the Orthodox men waters and Schools Is the whore on them Read the Scriptures Rev. 18. 17. ch. And can these waters which are Tongues which the whore is upon which drinks the blood of the Saints can these open the Scriptures that are waters is the Orthodox men waters and is the originall waters Now if these could have opened Scripture how chance they are no better then waters These tongues John calls them waters and saith The beast hath power over them and Pilato sets them on top of Christ and Babel is the beginning of them Are you pillars of the Church or of Antichrist of the Beast of the Whore and Babylon and members of fallen Babylon here begins your originall and when they crucified Christ they set your Original a top of Him which the Beast and Whore hath power over that sits upon them and John calls them waters And you will go make pillars of waters for the Church and you call that the Originall for tongues are waters oh shamelesse Babylon who are setting your Tongues a top of Christ like Pilate and denyes the light for the light is risen and hath discovered you all and Christ is risen which was before Babell was which Pilate set the many Languages over him when he crucified him He is risen over that which was set over him and over them that set it over him and you that have ravened from the spirit of God which sets up your Tongues to be the originall and by it your Orthodox men made at your Schools and Colledges came up by the Papists since the dayes of the Apostles which tongues the beasts power was given unto him over and the whore sits upon them which John in the Revelation calls them waters and these are them which hath established your Church and the Pope which hath been your pillar which he calls waters so you and the Papists which be your Tongues and Originall have set up your false Church and kild the life and set up your Tongues over it as Pilate did and so have drunk the blood of the Martyrs and the Prophets and the Saints which are made by the will of God and then sets your many Languages and Original over them amongst the ignorant and simple people but the life is risen Christ Jesus the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world over you and your Original who will be avenged of you all his enemies who is the foundation of God and the originall himselfe and he will stain your pride and deface your glory and beauty You have had a glory and a beauty and a pride the naturall Tongues which John calls waters which you call your original for the life is risen which was before Babel was and remains when Pilate is not and when Babylon is not neither who is risen to confound it He who had your Originall set over him which makes your Orthodox men which have killed the Prophets Saints which had the originall that you might reign with your false conceptions but the Prophets and the Saints and the Lamb now reigns over you and it is in vain now for you to set up your waters to make pillars of your Church for Tongues are waters saith John that had the Original and was in it and so all that be in the Original sees you is a top of your waters and Tongues and is come to the Rock and tramples upon all your Buildings and Tongues which at the best makes men but naturall men for tongues are natural and not

men and so you must acknowledge the Pope hath more wit then you that cannot name your Houses and Colledges and days and sets you out your Tythes Easter reckonings and Midsomer dues and so you are them that destroy the pure understanding of the people and stops the way whereby the souls of the people might come up so are destroyers of the true Ministers and keeping people from the true foundation Christ Jesus the Prophet which is to be heard It is not your Languages that feeds souls and keep people from being seduced nor makes people witty in the things of the spirit of God as you simple Doctors think in the tenth page your Ministry would wear out If you should loose your Tongues and Sciences And when do we see a Priest dare to venture upon a Papist Priest without a carnall sword and confound him and stop his mouth but your and the Papists Original are your Languages so easie to be confounded by them that be in the spirit of God before Tongues was So you who are killing and prisoning one another about your sacrifices piety is lost and charity amongst you and you are unfurnished with spiritual weapons and the Quakers who are of the royal elect seed of God before the foundation of the world was hath sounded you allarm and all your fore-fathers the Papists which your fathers since the days of the Apostles the Allarm is gone out that all the Sects and Apostates and Heathen which know not God upon the earth And the Trumpet sounds out of the holy Mountain that you and all the Inhabitants of the earth should tremble and you and all you who be in the ninths and tenths of the earth and the Trumpet sounds out to you all Allarm that you may come to the battel of the great God of heaven and earth And the Lambs war is begun who will kill with the sword and slay with the sword which is the word of his mouth and the Devill and Beast and false Prophet shall be taken and cast alive into the lake of fire He that worships the Beast shall be tormented day and night And the Lamb and the Saints shall reigne and the everlasting Gospell shall be preached to all Kindreds Tongues and Nations which is the power of God And you and the Papists have been made up by the Hereticks which went forth from the Apostles as you may read in Timothy in Jude and Peter and John and the rest of the Epistles and you all dry drossie dark Doctors who are training up your poor silly ignorant sottish Students which when they come out from you will speak a few words for a cock of Barley tythe Eggs and pigs Away you poor young Students lay aside all your pretences and turn to the Lord God from your old Doctors for they are never able to make you Ministers For that which they do is but for money and you are but plain Naturalists when they have done the utmost to you and then you go forth and teach for money when as you had been better to have kept Flocks and Herds and turned Husbandmen that would bring more honour to God You see the people are prophane and you do them no good and you see that you begin to be a shame to the Nation and what uncharitable lives they have and hard hearts and seared consciences and will cast men into prison and bring them before Courts and prison them for speaking to them and yet you have been learning seven and eight years at Oxford and Cambridge and one that hath never been there shall confound 20 of them in the things of God and how unlike the Apostles are they which was in the power of God whereby their hearers sold all and laid at the Apostles feet Now you see the Apostles would not cumber themselves with it they might have set up great benefits And again you may see how you Priests and Ministers destroy the true Church amongst you and the true Authority and comforter edification and limit the holy one dispiseth prophesy and quencheth the spirit if any thing be revealed to another that sits by let the first hold his peace And this practice you get a law against take him away he disturbes me and so you are the crucifiers in the world and the world that crucifies and are not them that are crucified from the world with Christ And the Lord hath given many both rich and poor an unspeakable happiness and freely of his grace that stands for the glory of his Church which Christ is in the midst of and is the head who are come into the lively faith and the fervent love to the brethren that are persecuted by you and evilly entreated and their bodies are offered up sacrifices to the Lord and many have been sacrificed in your prisons and there died to whom the love of God hath flowed and abounded and carried through all their sufferings with joy unspeakable and love unfaigned whose Souls are in their rest Christ whose comfort is in Christ the hope the mystery whose Crown of glory fades not whose love is to the world whether they will receive it for no now you Teachers and called Ministers have impoverished many in the Nation whom you do no work for many families many fatherlesse many widows many you keep in prison to this day many hath died in prison you have kept till death is it not blood their you drink will nothing serve you but the Saints blood there bodies and their lives you have taken and caused to be taken the very bibs and the childrens clothes and plough-gear and Oxen and Horses that men should till their ground with you have taken the beds away from people and left them none to lye on taken away their corn sheep and hay and threshed their corn in their Barnes and carried it away by loads as witness Thomas Aldam you drive away their fat Beasts provided for their own families against Winter you take away the Cows from the poor people that have half a dozen children to give them milk and take the men from their wives and cast them into prison that they shall not maintain their familes Oh! lamentable cryes is entred into the Lord of the Sabbath of rest for his people and you are speaking of learning and defending of the Truth and building up the Church of Christ by your Languages you six Doctors Alas did not Pilate with his Learning Languages turne against Christ and the Church and the Greek and the Hebrew and the Latine both And so Mahomet and the Infidels fruits could not be worse then yours who will not suffer the Saints to live upon the Earth except they live in the ninths to give you the tenths and bury the seed of God in their ninths that part pertains to shadows that holds the ninths that is a mystery and they that hold you up cannot honour Christ The priests name is Cain the first birth and that sacrificer offered of the earth and wrestled with the flesh and blood of Abel and killed him which did not Abel he wrestled not with the flesh and blood of Cain the Priests and the blood of Abel cries for vengeance upon Cain THE END
