was This should be effected by Dying out of Creaturely Censation whereby a vacancy of Place for the Holy-Ghost to rise and spring and move as One Entire Spiritual Body within for so it will be when ever there is a cessation and a rest from the whirling Thoughts and Motions which from the outward Astral Birth is This will be the manner of my coming in this Latter-Day to stand upon the Earth which thus emptied is and refined by the Fire that never dieth which Fire is that Seed of God that shall multiply it self to bring your Christ forth numerously to overspread this World till all shall be formed a new Thus shall each one become a Christ or an Anointed from this Deified Root opening within their own Soul And when this Life of Christ shall out-grow its Minority and come to Maturity of Wisdom and Strength then it shall be known what you are made Heirs to and shall possess while in the age of time you do remain for Christ fully Grown will bring such Gain as Trains of Heavenly Powers will open and fly like Lightning that shall reach from one Nation to another by which the dark Corners of the Earth shall become light This is the New and Living Model which your Lord Christ will now begin to manifest himself in Therefore hereunto Let the Holy Anointed Ones be ever waiting for me till Power come over all that is Nature and Creaturely Spirit Seeing I have Oh my Lord Liberty of Speech further to proceed for Enquiry into this deep condescending Love of Thine what upon my Spirit do move which is How the ardent Soul that so great a lover of Thee is may have frequent admittance into Thy Council-Chamber to know hear and learn what may be conduceable to such an high degree of Unity as hath been mentioned by Thee For thou art so over cloathed with Greatness and Majesty that it is no light or easy thing to maintain such Accesses unto Thee as required is in so high an Import as this is For to know the Secrets that do concern the Kingdom of Thine and my Joy and Glory in Thee O my Lord be pleased in This to satisfy me Which was answered most sweet and mildly of my Lord in these words O thou Soul of mine thou hast searched deep for to find a Path of Life that few have found because it is all Holy Ground where none but Spirits that have put on my Spiritual Body can ascend and keep their feet steady in this Track which I to God the Father did freely pass and so may you as I in you this Risen-Body shall quicken up That so as hereby you may know it is not my Personal Glory that shall prevent such Spirits in this their humble and Love attempt For I your Lord do well know it is but expedient you should thus keep up your acquaintance with me For great will be your advantage hereby in taking and receiving from Me such fresh and wonderful Supplies of Wisdom and Knowledge in the Heavenly Mysteries as shall satisfy and quiet the Mind in the middest of an unquiet and disturbing World And now I have informed you in what you are priviledged in take all care to keep this way of the Spirit all free and clear that your Flight may not be stopped so then you will keep your Dwelling securely above with me in the Heavens and need not be careful what happeneth to the World beneath for your Mountain Scituation in God shall never be moved Therefore only happy unutterably are they who knows me thus for to be their new living and ascending way that as with my Spiritual Body they may go in and out taking what is for their present use which they may have from me all free as coming in the Faith of Sanctity Now having taken in these Communications from my Lord I found a precious feeding hereupon and did feel such a spreading and quickning Life come upon me as if all were filled with Christ in every part which may be compared to Elijah's stretching himself upon the dead Child which was made alive thereby Thus the Lord Christ draws a lively Draught of Himself in every part in the Soul and nourisheth it with his own Royal Blood which runneth thro' every Vein by which we know we have put on Christ in his Resurrection-Spirit and inward Body to which Perfect Thing coming Redemption is Finished Highly blessed are those that shall arrive hereunto By all these Manifestations I see the Day of Love is breaking out to compass the whole Earth and Christ will no longer a Stranger be for so he doth Prophesy in me That in the Holy-Ghost he will in this Last Age of the World more wonderfully appear therefore I am press'd in Spirit to Excite all that love and longeth for to see feel and know Him as a Present Counsellor and Comforter that they would thus prepare by Pureness of Heart and Mind waiting for this Love-Star to rise and multiply it self to numberless Stars of Love and Power that may a Heavenly Host be to proclaim the Glory of Christ's Kingdom Even so Come Thou Mighty King of Glory and make us Kings to Reign over all That of the Earthly Life as so redeemed by Thee Thou Lamb of God to whom the Hallelujahs is given A Post-Script Being a Question put to the Author which is this viz. Q. GOD being so Pure Holy and Good in Himself How comes Evil and Sin to be awakened since God is the Original from whence All Created Beings have proceeded As now both Angels and all Rational-Creatures are infected therewith all As this was answered privately so it is thought necessary and serviceable for the publich Satisfaction of All in General to be incerted Here being of a weighty Concern for to be Resolved in which is not from the Reach of Man's Knowledge or Wisdom but from the Revelation of the Spirit of Christ so given in and in This wise opened viz. A. That the Great and Mighty God and Creatour had all Principles and Centers both of Light and Darkness in Himself with Good and Evil Death and Life But all of These tho seeming contrary were bounded in Unity and Harmony So that the Darkness did not mingle to Ecclips the Light Nor the Evil to lessen and diminish the Good Or the Death to be hurtful to the Life The Divine Wisdom kept All in their Place and Station Vnviolated in Himself But what the Mighty God Procreated and Generated out of Himself Angels of That Kind which kept not their first Station they derived from their Creator All Essences both in the Light and in the Darkness and were very Noble Potent and Great But being now Distinct and apart from their Original Root The Being of God They found a Power in themselves to awaken what Principles or Essence they would standing in a Free-Liberty either to the Good or to the Evil But not being watchful to keep All in our Bounds in a meek
that makes the Soul fly so High that nothing of the crawling Earth worms can reach to molest or hurt it The sixth Divine Power that attends the Traveller is the Live-Coal of Flaming-Love that so vehemently Longeth to arrive to the visional Fruition of GOD and CHRIST with all the glorified Train of Blessed and Perfect Spirits This Love-Gale is so Mighty strong that it makes the Soul pull up and run swiftly in this Race Seventhly That which doth most compleat this Holy Guard is Impregnable Strength and Power for if GOD did not take care to Fortify the travelling Soul with His own Invincible strength there were no possibility to reach this Mark of the New-Jerusalem-State but Christ the Lord takes good care and will not omit to provide Munition-strength for accomplishing this Heavenly Journey for Christ the Lord longeth more to see the Soul-traveller safely landed in his own Bosom of Love than the Souls desire is to appear before him So by this mutual Love-Agreement the Everlasting Knot of Marriage-Union will be tyed when there once it is arrived Now then by this time you see what the Company is that will support the Soul in its Travels but the Chief of all is Christ in Spirit that walks in This Holy qualified Soul as in the midst of the Seven Golden Candlesticks The second Proposition is what Stages or Rests that may be allowed the weary Traveller to take up in a while which are Three This second Days Journey is more easy and refreshing the Walks gives a sweet Smell from the Evangelical Promises giving assurance by the Atoning Blood of the Covenant that all Guilt of Sin is obliterated whereby the Soul is Incouraged and Comforted But from this it passeth on to a Second Rest which is the Record and Seal of the Spirit That which was now from the General Promises Literal is not to be staid in Christ in Flesh withdraws and will be known no more in That Figure but in the All-filling Power and Presence of Spirit whereby the Soul shall know him in Her-self So He does then become Salvation to the purpose No outward Application of Christ is of That Availance as a Christ within who pours in His Saving-Name as Oyntment which performs the Cure of the lapsed State of the Soul because an inward Disease must have an Intrinsical Medicine that may penetrate through the Inward Parts that all may be made whole This is the intended Redemption by Christ and nothing less will set the Soul to Rights again so as to give it Boldness to come to appear before That great Assembly of Perfect-Spirits Mount Sions-Kingdom Now we proceed to the third Rest which is yet more pleasant because it is Paradisical As the Travellor passeth through this Country there are various delightful Entertainments Ministring Angels and Spirits that in This Divine Principle do meet the Soul There also are the Sharon's Walks adorned with the Spicy-Beds that gives forth their Ravishing Odours This sometimes opens in the Soul with Sweet-Tastes and Refreshing Draughts for the Godhead Diffuseth it self through All of That Climate so as many Spirits are made vigorous and Joyful knowing nothing but an All-filling Sweetness all calm and still in the mind free from the terrifying Cares and Combustions of this World though in it yet forgotten by it at least during the time it is round beset with this Light and Heavenly Paradise so that the Soul is afraid to be disturbed as to the lower Descent into mortal things again Now we come to the third particular which is the last remove that bringeth up to That Mount-Sion which is mentioned in the Hebrews Thus the unwearied Soul goeth on from strength to strength and is now come to the Fourth particular That is to the Arrival to appear before GOD in Sion This is a High and Glorious Arrival This is a Rest never to be disrested of Now open do the everlasting Gates to receive the faithful Traveller that hath held out its Probation-State It further remains to give you an account as the fifth particular of the Traveller's welcome up There The first Appearance are the Angelical Order that stands before the Throne who commanded are to Usher in the Arrived bringing forth the Royal Robe which is all Pure and Light without spot of the Fallen-Night which giveth the Soul an Holy Boldness to appear in That New World or Principal of Light as becomes all manifest So as Christ the Kingly Priest doth to the Soul Appear and as a Bridegroom Greets it with such a kind of Love-Gratulations as followeth My Bride and Spouse I joy to see thy Soul in my Righteousness and that thou hast past through a dangerous Evil Tempting World and hast escaped with That tender Life of Mine in Thee by which thou art come up a Conquerour here and now behold and view the Glo●y of my Kingdom which the Father hath placed me in and over all Principalities Powers and Dominions both in the Heights above and in the Earth below so as I can give to whom I will to Possess with me Ioy for Ioy and Glory for Glory with me as I have received of my Father so freely I give to thee and as many as from an evil World shall break and get away and in a Pure Naked-Spirit in Loves flame Thus ascend Ask now Oh Spouse of Mine what it is that I should further for the do I give Thee Liberty to ask most free for thou hast found favour both with the Father and me Whereupon the arrived Traveller-worships and Bows before the Throne of GOD and the Lamb and in great Humility doth make this Reply saying in the Language of the Spirit Oh my Lord I am come up to this degree but sensible I am it is all of Benignant-Grace and Love from my GOD and Father and thy Spirit O Lord Christ that my Conduct and Guardian-strength hath been in This my Journey One great proof I have had of a mighty Strong Guard with continual supply from Thy Fountain-Heart or else I had fainted and failed by the way The consideration of it takes such deep Impression upon me that I am at a loss and know not wherewith to pay my Debt-Offering of Thanksgiving unto thee my God and King only accept of what I have which is beyond all Sounds of words that are too finite to express praises for such Boundless Goodness which my Spirit hath tasted so largely Hence it is now that I do study to offer That unto Thee which hath been refined and purified by the Spirit of Love-burning given from Thee unto me This then which is of Thine Own receive for I joy to pass it all away as my true Thanksgiving-Offering unto Thee No part shall I keep back from Thee had I ten thousand Immaculate Lives to give up to Thee all would be too little to run their strength of Love into Thee who hath wrought out so great a Redemption for me And now my Lord seeing I am thus
