flesh_n and_o so_o call_v his_o brethren_n because_o we_o be_v bear_v not_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n nor_o of_o the_o flesh_n but_o of_o water_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n which_o spirit_n do_v

be_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n of_o abraham_n and_o so_o indeed_o they_o be_v bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n for_o indeed_o they_o know_v no_o other_o christ_n but_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n for_o in_o scripture_n the_o seed_n of_o reason_n be_v call_v the_o flesh_n from_o whence_o the_o motion_n of_o

the_o spirit_n wherefore_o it_o be_v say_v let_v christ_n dwell_v in_o your_o heart_n by_o faith_n and_o so_o every_o one_o that_o do_v true_o believe_v in_o that_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v now_o live_v do_v eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o so_o christ_n dwell_v in_o his_o heart_n by_o faith_n and_o not_o in_o his_o person_n and_o essence_n as_o the_o quaker_n do_v vain_o imagine_v for_o they_o make_v no_o distinction_n between_o the_o person_n and_o essence_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n which_o light_n of_o christ_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o his_o person_n another_o as_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o the_o light_n that_o shine_v from_o it_o be_v another_o and_o so_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v according_a to_o

for_o none_o can_v interpret_v scripture_n true_o but_o myself_o neither_o do_v any_o man_n in_o the_o world_n true_o know_v christ_n nor_o the_o father_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o myself_o and_o those_o that_o believe_v in_o this_o commission_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o it_o be_v not_o with_o i_o as_o it_o be_v with_o you_o for_o you_o be_v to_o be_v judge_v by_o the_o letter_n of_o

and_o apostle_n commission_n be_v in_o their_o time_n nay_o it_o be_v of_o a_o more_o high_a nature_n than_o they_o be_v for_o we_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n do_v know_v more_o than_o

christ_n the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o have_v nothing_o but_o the_o dead_a letter_n of_o other_o man_n word_n who_o light_n be_v but_o dark_a in_o comparison_n of_o that_o light_n that_o come_v by_o this_o commission_n of_o the_o spirit_n so_o that_o you_o can_v never_o know_v christ_n nor_o the_o father_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o scripture_n nor_o by_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n within_o you_o without_o a_o interpreter_n there_o be_v none_o in_o the_o world_n at_o this_o day_n but_o myself_o can_v your_o light_n within_o you_o make_v these_o three_o you_o speak_v of_o christ_n the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o be_v but_o one_o person_n and_o particular_a body_n of_o flesh_n and_o bone_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o

this_o day_n but_o this_o commission_n of_o the_o spirit_n only_o neither_o can_v any_o man_n by_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n within_o he_o come_v to_o know_v these_o thing_n aforesaid_a but_o by_o believe_v of_o he_o that_o be_v send_v by_o voice_n of_o word_n from_o a_o god_n without_o he_o but_o the_o quaker_n be_v never_o send_v from_o a_o god_n without_o they_o but_o only_o from_o a_o

further_o that_o i_o have_v write_v the_o quaker_n will_v have_v no_o person_n at_o all_o the_o word_n in_o your_o letter_n to_o this_o be_v not_o worth_a a_o reply_n for_o there_o be_v little_a in_o

nor_o from_o the_o light_n within_o i_o but_o from_o the_o power_n and_o authourity_n of_o a_o commission_n receive_v from_o a_o god_n without_o i_o which_o speak_v by_o voice_n of_o word_n to_o the_o

and_o to_o eternity_n 3._o three_o i_o do_v say_v true_o in_o that_o i_o say_v you_o deny_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n to_o be_v a_o person_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o man_n and_o that_o you_o deny_v the_o same_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o jesus_n which_o suffer_v death_n be_v lay_v in_o the_o grave_n which_o rise_v again_o which_o be_v see_v afterward_o by_o his_o apostle_n and_o other_o which_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n in_o that_o same_o flesh_n and_o bone_n that_o he_o suffer_v death_n in_o in_o your_o answer_n to_o this_o abovementioned_a you_o charge_v i_o to_o mention_v the_o man_n and_o the_o place_n of_o his_o abode_n that_o deny_v this_o and_o be_v a_o quaker_n there_o be_v some_o other_o word_n in_o this_o letter_n of_o you_o that_o be_v to_o be_v

do_v name_v it_o right_n another_o of_o they_o be_v fox_n the_o young_a which_o be_v now_o both_o dead_a and_o damn_a to_o eternity_n another_o of_o they_o be_v john_n harwood_n as_o for_o the_o other_o two_o i_o do_v n_o it_o remember_v their_o name_n but_o one_o of_o they_o be_v a_o great_a lubberdly_a fellow_n perhaps_o you_o may_v know_v he_o better_o than_o i_o these_o five_o do_v all_o of_o they_o deny_v that_o flesh_n and_o bone_n or_o body_n of_o christ_n wherein_o he_o suffer_v death_n which_o same_o body_n be_v now_o live_v which_o they_o do_v deny_v for_o which_o the_o just_a sentence_n of_o condemnation_n be_v pass_v upon_o they_o as_o be_v public_a in_o the_o quaker_n downfall_n nay_o it_o be_v not_o only_o these_o five_o quaker_n that_o do_v deny_v these_o thing_n aforesaid_a but_o all_o the_o quaker_n that_o ever_o i_o talk_v with_o both_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v do_v the_o same_o and_o i_o know_v that_o if_o i_o shall_v but_o discourse_v with_o you_o i_o shall_v find_v you_o to_o do_v the_o like_a for_o it_o do_v not_o stand_v with_o a_o right_a quaker_n principle_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o same_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o christ_n which_o suffer_v death_n be_v lay_v in_o the_o grave_n rise_v again_o and_o be_v now_o live_v in_o heaven_n in_o that_o same_o body_n neither_o can_v that_o body_n be_v in_o heaven_n without_o the_o soul_n or_o spirit_n for_o where_o his_o body_n be_v there_o be_v his_o spirit_n also_o for_o they_o both_o live_v together_o they_o both_o suffer_v death_n together_o they_o both_o rise_v again_o together_o and_o be_v both_o in_o heaven_n together_o if_o so_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o the_o quaker_n shall_v get_v christ_n within_o they_o for_o if_o christ_n be_v a_o distinct_a person_n of_o himself_o of_o substance_n flesh_n and_o bone_n though_o a_o spiritual_a body_n now_o in_o heaven_n how_o come_v christ_n to_o get_v his_o spiritual_a body_n into_o every_o quaker_n body_n and_o every_o man_n body_n else_o for_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o the_o heaven_n shall_v contain_v he_o until_o the_o restitution_n of_o all_o thing_n mean_v that_o body_n of_o flesh_n and_o bone_n so_o that_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n or_o his_o essence_n can_v be_v in_o this_o world_n at_o all_o much_o less_o in_o the_o quaker_n body_n nay_o he_o be_v not_o in_o i_o though_o he_o have_v choose_v i_o to_o be_v his_o messenger_n to_o declare_v what_o he_o be_v in_o his_o form_n and_o nature_n as_o have_v be_v abundant_o declare_v in_o our_o write_n therefore_o do_v not_o you_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o slander_n and_o a_o lie_n for_o i_o to_o say_v that_o you_o be_v the_o very_a absolute_a spirit_n of_o antichrist_n that_o do_v deny_v both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n for_o though_o you_o talk_v of_o a_o christ_n and_o of_o his_o be_v the_o express_a image_n of_o his_o father_n person_n and_o of_o a_o holy_a ghost_n because_o you_o read_v of_o such_o thing_n in_o scripture_n which_o be_v other_o man_n word_n so_o you_o read_v of_o they_o have_v jumble_v the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n together_o and_o so_o in_o stead_n of_o one_o person_n you_o have_v get_v three_o person_n and_o yet_o never_o a_o person_n for_o i_o be_o sure_a when_o i_o talk_v with_o john_n perrot_n about_o god_n he_o can_v find_v never_o a_o person_n but_o a_o infinite_a spirit_n without_o a_o body_n or_o person_n at_o all_o all_o the_o quaker_n that_o ever_o i_o have_v have_v to_o do_v withal_o which_o have_v be_v a_o great_a many_o i_o can_v never_o find_v any_o quaker_n to_o own_o god_n to_o be_v a_o person_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o man_n but_o a_o infinite_a spirit_n that_o fill_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o place_n and_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o do_v the_o pope_n and_o all_o other_o opinion_n that_o be_v which_o do_v show_v the_o darkness_n of_o the_o quaker_n and_o the_o pope_n and_o all_o other_o for_o if_o god_n be_v a_o person_n in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o man_n as_o i_o be_o sure_a he_o be_v for_o i_o do_v acknowledge_v no_o other_o god_n but_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v a_o distinct_a body_n of_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o own_o how_o then_o can_v he_o fill_v heaven_n and_o earth_n with_o his_o presence_n and_o get_v into_o the_o quaker_n body_n and_o all_o other_o people_n body_n too_o and_o yet_o he_o be_v

that_o moses_n do_v miracle_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v as_o much_o need_n of_o faith_n to_o believe_v that_o as_o the_o other_o for_o what_o can_v be_v see_v must_v be_v believe_v so_o believe_v that_o god_n speak_v to_o john_n reeve_n and_o that_o god_n give_v unto_o john_n reeve_n a_o commission_n by_o voice_n from_o heaven_n by_o verbal_a word_n to_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o

in_o christ_n and_o to_o curse_v and_o damn_v those_o that_o despise_v and_o speak_v evil_a of_o they_o who_o god_n have_v send_v so_o that_o god_n have_v make_v i_o chief_a judge_n now_o to_o give_v sentence_n upon_o man_n and_o woman_n spiritual_a and_o eternal_a estate_n so_o that_o i_o shall_v unfold_v as_o short_a as_o i_o can_v how_o i_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o chief_a judge_n and_o that_o i_o do_v go_v by_o as_o certain_a a_o rule_n as_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o land_n do_v when_o they_o give_v judgement_n according_a to_o law_n these_o two_o thing_n i_o shall_v unfold_v a_o little_a more_o clear_a than_o in_o those_o letter_n aforesaid_a first_o that_o i_o be_o chief_a judge_n in_o spiritual_a matter_n i_o prove_v thus_o because_o i_o do_v believe_v and_o certain_o know_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o faith_n that_o god_n do_v speak_v to_o john_n reeve_n three_o morning_n together_o distinct_a word_n and_o sentence_n to_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o ear_n in_o the_o year_n 1651._o february_n the_o three_o four_o and_o five_o and_o give_v he_o a_o commission_n as_o he_o do_v moses_n and_o aaron_n be_v give_v to_o be_v moses_n his_o mouth_n so_o be_v lodowick_n muggelton_n give_v to_o be_v john_n reeve_n mouth_n so_o that_o john_n reeve_n be_v the_o chief_a while_o he_o be_v live_v but_o since_o the_o burden_n or_o commission_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v be_v lay_v upon_o i_o and_o as_o elisha_n have_v a_o double_a portion_n of_o eliahs_n spirit_n so_o have_v i_o have_v a_o double_a portion_n of_o revelation_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o open_v the_o scripture_n since_o john_n reeve_n depart_v this_o life_n also_o god_n say_v that_o he_o have_v choose_v john_n reeve_n his_o last_o messenger_n and_o that_o he_o have_v give_v he_o lodowick_n muggelton_n to_o be_v his_o mouth_n and_o the_o next_o word_n follow_v that_o he_o have_v put_v the_o two_o edged-sword_n of_o his_o spirit_n into_o his_o mouth_n to_o pronounce_v blessing_n and_o curse_v to_o eternity_n with_o many_o other_o word_n which_o be_v in_o public_a therefore_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o of_o they_o here_o so_o that_o john_n reeve_n be_v dead_a i_o must_v needs_o be_v chief_a judge_n in_o these_o day_n neither_o will_n god_n commissionate_v any_o more_o after_o i_o to_o the_o world_n end_n because_o he_o do_v say_v that_o he_o have_v choose_v we_o his_o last_o

hundred_o year_n yet_o the_o apostle_n which_o be_v the_o commissioner_n do_v not_o live_v themselves_o above_o forty_o year_n after_o their_o lord_n christ_n be_v put_v to_o death_n must_v that_o

and_o salvation_n until_o that_o god_n speak_v to_o john_n reeve_n in_o the_o year_n 1651._o for_o all_o man_n that_o have_v exercise_v the_o office_n of_o a_o minister_n messenger_n or_o ambassador_n of_o christ_n since_o that_o three_o hundred_o year_n to_o the_o year_n 1651._o have_v run_v before_o they_o be_v send_v for_o god_n send_v none_o of_o they_o by_o voice_n of_o word_n but_o they_o have_v preach_v only_o from_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o scripture_n or_o else_o from_o the_o light_n within_o as_o the_o quaker_n do_v but_o have_v have_v no_o commission_n from_o christ_n without_o they_o though_o much_o good_a have_v be_v do_v by_o their_o preach_n and_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o 〈◊〉_d but_o let_v that_o pass_v because_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o that_o more_o at_o large_a in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o rev._n chap._n 11._o so_o i_o say_v though_o john_n reeve_n be_v dead_a and_o i_o be_v dead_a also_o yet_o will_v not_o this_o commission_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v make_v
