with See how he saith That the Sabbaths which are now are not acceptable unto me But in that he rested he made all things which he had made the beginning of the eighth day that is the beginning of another world Therefore we observe the eighth day with alacrity of mind whereon Jesus rose from the dead and being manifested ascended up into the heavens I shall moreover speak unto you concerning the Temple How they being in miserie did erre in their hope upon the way for they did not hope in the God of the Temple who made them but in the Temple as being the House of God for almost like the very heathens they confined him within the Temple but learn what the Lord saith making void the Temple Who hath measured the heavens with his palm and the earth with his fist Is it not I saith the Lord. Heaven is my throne and the earth my footstool what house will ye build unto me and what is the place of my rest Know that theirs is a vain hope After this he saith again Behold they who destroy this Temple shall themselves build it It is done For when they warred it was destroyed by the enemies and the ministers themselves of those enemies shall build it Again he hath opened How the City and people Israel should be delivered up For the Scripture saith And it shall be in the last days That the Lord will deliver up the sheep of the pasture and their fence and their tower to destruction And it is come to pass as the Lord hath spoken Therefore we shall enquire whether there be a Temple of God There is where he saith he would make and finish it For it is written It shall be when a week is finished that the Temple of God shall be built glorious in the name of the Lord. Therefore I find that there is a Temple But how shall it be built in the name of the Lord Learn Before we believed God the dwelling of our heart was corrupt and weak as a Temple built truly by the hand for the house was full of Idolatry by Idolatry it was the house of devils so that we did whatever was contrary to God But it shall be built in the name of the Lord. Learn that a glorious Temple of the Lord shall be built But how Learn we receiving remission of sins and hoping in the name of the Lord were made anew and created again as from the beginning So that in our house that is in us God truly dwelleth How The word of his Faith the calling of his Promise the wisdom of his judgements the commands of his doctrine he himself prophesying in us he himself dwelling in us opening to us the gates of the Temple who were before the servants of death that is opening that mouth which gives repentance to us hath brought us into the incorruptible Temple And he who desires to be saved minds nothing but him dwelling in him admires nothing but him speaking in him desires to hear nothing but the words spoken from his mouth This is the spiritual Temple built unto the Lord so far as he would in power and simplicity manifest it unto us My Soul hopeth with desire that I have omitted nothing convenient for you and conducing to Salvation If I should write unto you of things future ye would not understand me because they are shut up in Parables but these things are so Let us now pass over to another kind of knowledge and doctrine There are two ways of doctrine and power either of Light or of Darkness and great is the difference of these two ways Over one are appointed the Angels of God the Ministers of light Over the other the angels of Satan over the one is the Lord from ages to ages over the other the prince of the time of iniquity The way of light is this If a man would walk to the place designed he will make haste by his works Therefore Knowledge is given to us that we may walk in it which is this Thou shalt love thy Maker Thou shalt glorifie him who redeemed thee from death Thou shalt be simple in heart and being rich in the spirit thou shalt not joyn thy self with those who walk in the way of death Thou shalt hate to do that which is not pleasing to God Thou shalt hate all hypocrisie Thou shalt not forsake the Commandments of the Lord. Thou shalt not exalt thy self but be of an humble mind Thou shalt not assume glorie to thy self Thou shalt not take evil counsel against thy neighbour Thou shalt not give boldness to thy soul Thou shalt not commit adultery nor fornication nor buggerie Thou shalt not refrain to correct the impurity of some by that word which cometh from God and when thou reproovest transgressions thou shalt not respect persons Thou shalt be meek and quiet trembling at the words which thou hast heard Thou shalt not remember evil things against thy brother Thou shalt not be of a double and wavering soul doubting whether thus or thus Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord in vain Thou shalt love thy neighbour above thy soul Thou shalt not destroy the child by abortion nor kill it when it is born Thou shalt not take away thy hand from thy son nor from thy daughter but from their youth shalt teach them the fear of the Lord. Thou shalt not desire thy neighbours goods nor be a covetous person Thou shalt not adhere in thy soul to proud persons but be numbred amongst the just and humble Thou shalt embrace temptations when they happen as good things Thou shalt not be of a double mind nor a double tongue for a double tongue is the snare of death Thou shalt be subject to the Lord to Masters as to the type of God in reverence and fear Thou shalt not command thy maid or man-servant with bitterness especially those who hope in him left thou be found destitute of the fear of God who is over both For he came not to call men by their persons but those whom his spirit prepared Thou shalt communicate to thy neighbour in all things and shalt not call any thing thine own for if ye are communicative in incorruptible things how much more in corruptible Thou shalt not be hastie in tongue for the mouth is the snare of death Keep thy Soul as chaste as thou canst Do not stretch forth thy hands to receive and shut them when thou shouldst give Thou shalt love every man speaking to thee the Word of the Lord as the apple of thine eye Mind the day of judgement night and day Seek out every day the persons of holy men and searching by the Word go forth to exhort and meditate to save a soul by the Word And thou shalt labour by thy hands for the redemption of thy sins Thou shalt not doubt to give nor murmur when thou givest Give to every one that asketh of thee but know withal who is the good recompenser
